No problem. I'm happy to help!

Good afternoon. The meaning in that example sentence is the same as "If you put this carpet in the hallway, it will reduce the echo." Maybe you're thinking about putting the rug in the hallway or leaving it where it is now (imaginary situation). So the result IF you put it there WOULD be reduced echo noises (result). The time/tense here actually isn't as important as in other sentences because nothing happened. Just like: That food would make me full if I ate it. (I didn't order or eat anything. My current real situation didn't change) / I would go inside if it rained. (It isn't raining so my plan for today didn't change)

If you want to put the rug in the hallway in the future tense, you can say "When I put the rug there tomorrow, it will reduce the echo." Present: "I put the rug there every morning, and it reduces the echo." Past: When I put the rug in the hallway last week, it reduced the echo a lot." I hope this helps!!

You are welcome! I'm happy it helped.

Thank you for learning ☺️ see you soon!

Good morning. Do you mean "the, a, an" etc.? That is actually a really good idea. I can make a video about this after the modal verb series finishes.

@@ConversationCompanionEnglish Yes. This is a very tricky grammar topic. I spent so much time trying to figure out which one to use,and still it’s not quite clear. I think even native speakers might have some trouble using it and we don’t use em’ Thank you for your answering me.

I really like that idea. I'll finish "will" and "would", then I will post a video about the articles. Thank you for that suggestion I think I can help!

@@ConversationCompanionEnglish This would be such a help for many! Be safe!

Good morning. I am actually from California and I try to hide my Californian accent! It helps with speaking clearly and slowly. Do you like the American accent more than the British accent? Some people say the British accent is really difficult to understand and others say the Americans speak too quickly.

@@ConversationCompanionEnglish I just love when you speak. It sounds so pleasantly to my ear and very clear.British accent is the one I literally can’t stand. I spent some time in California near LA in small town Lake Elsinore.I’m from Saint P. in Russia.

Lake Elsinore is beautiful!! Did you visit Big Bear and Yosemite while you visited as well?

@@ConversationCompanionEnglish No. Didn’t have a chance to get there but I’d seen Big Bear from far distance!

@petrtroschenkov360 Ah great! Yea it's so beautiful there and I really like how you can go to the mountains and lay on the beach on the same day if you wanted to!

Hey there! :)

Well thank you very much! Schönen Abend noch ☺️

Well thank you that really means a lot! I'm always happy to help:)

Thank you for learning.

Good afternoon to you too.

My camera overheated:( and I didn't realize until I started editing. But that's a good tip I might permanently do that.

Welcome.

You're welcome! It's nice to see you back again.

@@ConversationCompanionEnglish same to you!

Good morning, I finally finished the modal verb series. 'Would' will be posted on Monday:)

I agree!!

You learning makes my day! Thank you.

Thank you! 😃

Thank you very much! I'm thinking about making a part 2 soon:)

Because I try to use the word I'm teaching as often as possible haha. With my newest video for "just", I used it often too.

Thank you😍

Merhaba! I'm genuinely thrilled you enjoy it!

Thank you that really means a lot! With my first few videos, I was so nervous and almost gave up. I'm happy I didn't because knowing that you learned something is worth it 😀

Good morning. Thank you for your support. It really means a lot to me. And I'm really happy you're enjoying yourself.

Thank you I'm happy you're learning and enjoying :)

Yes this form: "I have yet to receive payment" for example is not exactly "modern" English anymore. People DO still say it but in an ironic or sarcastic way (at least in American English I'm not sure about British English). I haven't seen an example like the taxi sentence you wrote; did you hear it in a movie or read it in a book?

@@ConversationCompanionEnglish The phase about taxi is from the dialogue text book. Well, I took it like if "yet" is to be used "not" is not applied necessarily, just for better expression. "Yet" implies "not" itself.

Ah interesting I've never heard it used that way. It could be a regional phrase but I'll look more into it that's really cool!

​@@ConversationCompanionEnglish Having read your answers to "@I_am_ on_theSky" struck me to change my mind into that "yet" may be congruent with "but" and "however" rather than associated with negative sentence anyway.

@@КонстантинКоньков-я1п I can see that too but a negative sentence here, means a sentence using "not". Positive or affirmative sentences are without "not" like "I have a cat". A negative sentence would be "I do not have a cat." I hope this helps!

I posted 'still' before this video and I originally planned to do them together but I realized really quickly that the video would be over 40 minutes and I'm not so good at editing yet:( So for the sake of time and my sanity, I had to split them haha. Sorry for the split though:(

Thank you. I'm always happy to help!

@@ConversationCompanionEnglish Rosie you so kind, great, favourable, close .....keep it up

Good morning🌞

Thank you!

Good evening, yes I was born and raised in the United States.

I'm happy to hear that:) have a nice weekend 😎

@@ConversationCompanionEnglish Thank you, have a great weekend too 😊😊🥰

Good morning, that's so good to hear I'm happy to help! 🎉🎊

Good evening, yes I was born and raised in the United States.

Haha, great usage of already!!

Good morning. That's a good idea! I'll think of a few other slang words to talk about and make a video on that soon too.

I made a video about it couple of weeks ago:) I like to remember it like "A"ction for "A"ffect and "E"nd result for "E"ffect. The mean lady affects my mood and the side effect of the medicine is fatigue. I just double checked and it's part 6 in this series. Enjoy!
