- Here are 5 extremely common grammar mistakes than English learners make. Be careful if you are translating from your own language because sometimes we say things very differently in English. So you'll learn the difference between "swimming" and "go swimming", when NOT to use YES and NO in English. How to respond to SHALL WE questions and much more.
There are 5 grammar challenges in all. How many do you know.
This video was recorded partly in London in Mount Street Gardens, Mayfair and on Upper Regent Street.

English speaker here. These are interesting.....little rules about our language that I've never really thought about before. I love language so keep 'em coming!
"Yes, let's" must be a UK thing. Here in the States people are more likely to say, "Yeah, sure," "Sounds good," etc.
It is proper to say yes. Do not use slang unless you are around your friends who do not care or maybe from poor backgrounds.
In India we say 'yes,definitely ', 'why not',' sure' and even 'sounds good' ..depending on the context..And I think that's perfectly fine.
We say those in the UK too, he's speaking more traditionally
@@ratherbfishing455 lol what? I've probably said some other alternative 1000 times for every time I've said yes. Sometimes it sounds stiff and in most situations I think yeah, sure, sounds good or something else are more appropriate expressions. English is a very casual language overall in my experience
@@ratherbfishing455 Being proper is also a UK thing. And using the word "proper".
0 out of 5. Terrible failure. I need to read Wren & Martin's books on grammar again. Thank you for this humbling video.
OK, you got me on the forgot/left one. I always assumed that 'left' is used if it was done intentionally and 'forgot' if you truly forgot. Nowadays, I'm 'leaving' an awful lot of things at home, none by design, I assure you.
We need more of this grammer for advanced please. Thank you
One episode and I got hooked. Wish I encountered this channel earlier.
Now you're here stick around.
I wish I had come across...

A very insightful choice of mistakes. Most Mediterranean languages (and others I might be unaware of) do feature the mistaken version of almost all of these cases. My native language, Greek, is no exception. It took me forever to work out why "run in the park" should be a mistake, and "if yes" and "forget something at...(place)" are perfectly correct in Greek. So first language interference is inevitable there. Thanks again, keep up the great work!
The best teacher ever,I’m so happy i found this channel❤️
I’ve become fascinated with these videos. I’m a native English speaker, and, as such, am not used to analysing the language I use. I’m learning a lot from you about why I say the things I do. The use of go -ing for a leisure activity was interesting, although I wanted to say “I go for a run” rather than “I go running”. Is this just an acceptable alternative?
Aye; OK.
I am not a native speaker but I am sticked with the one you mentioned.
I just can’t stopping watching your videos! They are quite necessary in my life, no words to describe how much I appreciate it and thankful. I’d say that your accent is a must!
An excellent teacher makes you love a subject, thank you!
You' videos are so well made ! I can't stop watch them ! Thank tou Mister for all of them!
Nice! Thanks for taking the time to prepare it for us.
I've watched numerous videos about "go" on youtube. However, the videos never clarify why we add "go" before and verb(ing). Thanks for this, you know what you are doing, unlike the others
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. You are a fantastic teacher. :)
new yorker here, i disagree with you about ‘i run’ vs ‘i go running’ .. i would say either of your choices. in fact, using the one with fewer syllables is quicker, so if my information is understood correctly, i see no need to add useless baggage. “i run every day in the park before i start work/school/etc.” love the palm tree !
Exactly. This isn't a "grammar mistake" - it's just a stylistic choice.
Thank you very much.It’s always good to check one’s grammar mistakes especially when English is not your native language. It was quite useful!
Brilliant! Many thanks for making this and the other videos. Finally something for more advanced learners of English :).
I didnt know them except the "home" one. Great video and awesome lesson. Thanks.
Fascinating and enjoyable to watch. Thank you.
Thank you. I really enjoy your English lessons on advance grammar and using of English.
This channel is a treasure. I like your teaching method. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Gideon! Your suggestions are always precious to me!
Your comment is precious to me. Thanks

I have never ever went to a language school, just listened to native speakers, so all my knowledge is from mirroring them, which is exactly how you learn language initially, but it is very useful to know why things are as they are. I love the channel, so keep it up!

Hello, I tough that your explain Will be very difficult for me, but I'm trying to watch some of your videos and I love it. Always saw the difference between British and American..and I heard better American,but you have a clear pronuntiation. Thank you
Thanks a lot, very useful
Informative and interesting, as usual. A big thumbs up!

Very useful, cheers mate
I'll say in Portuguese how much I liked your video: a-do-rei!!! Really good!!!Thank you!!! :)
Innovative style of teaching grammar. Thanks
Really the best way to teach us that, by having to "think" before the explanation is given we remember a lot better compared to passive learning
Yes, indeed
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much for your lesson
The pleasure is mine
Whenever you upload a new video, it gives me new information in the usage of English words. Good job.
Thanks that's the intention
F.T.Wood in his book Remedial English Grammar says when the word Home is preceded by possessive adjectives like my, your etc we can very well use to before the word Home...but if it comes alone without any possessive adjectives before it, it is an adverb that should not be preceded by" to"
I like your channel too much. it really works because subtitles is great
very useful video really appreciate sir always
Fantastic Lessens 👍👍👍
Wow! I didn’t know the last one! Thank you very much!!!
Great job sir...
Thank you. İt is an extremely useful and interesting video.
You are the best, I am glad that I am one of your followers 😍
Wow!!!! I was making all those mistakes repeatedly!!! Thanks a a lot!!!
I'm a native Englush speaker in the USA, but you still stumped me on a couple. One of them (Yes, let's) is not used in the US, being more of a British type of phraseology.
Also, I was taught in school on the "If so, then...." to use a comma there to separate those phrases.
Very interesting, these videos.
Thank you very much.
