What a important introduction to the phrasal verb jungle! I am filling up my English education the empty spaces. Don't carry on. It is only a game. Life is not easy. You aught be tenacious! don't give up easily. He ruled out any other option.
Hello Max! Your lessons is perfect for my English pronunciation. I can understand all what you saying. When you will upload new lessons? I'll be waiting. Tnx! With kind regard from Belarus!
Thank you for your efforts. What about literal and idiomatic phrasal verbs? I won't ever never give up until be flunt in English like you. I'm looking forward to becoming confident in English like you on one day.
Thank you again! That would be another way to classify them, yes :), but grammatically, normally we talk about separable and inseparable phrasal verbs. I like your attitude! Never give up! 😀👍
Hi, I'm still learning English, I'm from Mexico, all your videos are clear for me, actually I'd would like that you could do a video with vocabulary, for example, laboratory equipment, business topics, science topics and stuff, I'm food chemist and it'll be helpful. I hope you think about it. Regards 😀
Hi! I've thought about it, and it's quite difficult to give a short answer, as "wish" can be used in several different ways. This page might help: dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/wish "Wish" can sometimes mean exactly the same thing as "want", for example: "I wish to go to the beach." But it is very formal, and rarely used nowadays. I hope that helps!
I was waiting for your new lesson quite a long time. Good job as usual and the thumbs up. And here is my homework: 1. I set up the goal to see all your lessons. 2. Even though I drive you crazy, please, don't bring me down. Note: An idea struck me to make the second sentence inspired by two songs "You drive me crazy" by Shakin' Stevens and "Don't bring me down" by ELO (Electric Light Orchestra)(pls correct)
Thanks again! *1. I set myself the goal to watch all your lessons. ("Set up" is quite tricky because there are several meanings. I don't how to explain why it's "set myself the goal" here and not "set up" - it's just how we say it! :s) www.thefreedictionary.com/set+up 2. perfect *The idea struck me to include inspiration from two songs in the second sentence. (Your sentence was grammatically correct, it's just a matter of style. 😉 )
Awesome teaching madam 👍🙏 love you so much, I'm Ananda I'm from Sri Lanka🇱🇰🙏 actually I like English language and I like learn English. Thanks for reaching madam👍🇱🇰🙏🌹😍
May I ask you something about English .I noticed that sometime in the movies people conversation end with though. what's that mean ?like I don't understand though
Hello! It has the same meaning as "but". However, it can be placed at the end of the sentence. "But I don't understand" = "I don't understand though" (N.B. "But" can never go at the end of a sentence, although some native speakers make that mistake!) In other contexts, "though" can also mean "although".
On your necklace, Is it a key? My mom was wearing such a necklace and She was in a belief that that necklace will bring her luck to have flat :) And it worked, she ended up having 3 flats. And it seems like she may have more :)) Did it work on you in that way Max :))
Hello guys. May I ask? Our group was tasked to present our report which is based on Linguistic Theories but we are confused because under it, there are traditional, linear, phrasal and transformative. I'm assigned of the phrasal, but when I searched through the internet there is no result for phrasal in linguistic theories, but just a phrasal verbs. Is there any phrasal 'thing'in linguistics?
i would like to know about present perfect here in brazil we only have past present and future i have some doubts to use present perfect and aways amazing tip
Correcting: here in Brazil we don't have only past, present and future. Brazilian indicative mode has six conjugations time: "Presente", "Pretérito imperfeito", "Pretérito perfeito", "Pretérito mais-que-perfeito", "Futuro do presente", "Futuro do pretérito". English grammar are infinitely more simple than the brazilians one.

Very good! Just a couple of small corrections in the first sentence: I couldn't figure out what a particle means in English grammar. (If you didn't have "what a particle means..." then you could just say: I couldn't figure it out. The "it" would replace the "what a particle means".) I hope that makes sense!
Hello Max. (The most beautiful English teacher on the internet.) * Separable phrasal verb: TAKE BACK. "I took all of the History books back to the library." * Inseparable phrasal verb: RUN INTO. "I ran into Max at the zoo." (Please correct, thank you.) See you next time. Bye!
thanks for the teaching I learn from a lot Plse am a Sierra Leonean Plse text me your number I will like to talk with you for more of English class this is my cell phone number +232-88779638 Plse help me I hope to hear from you soon
Don't mean to be picky... You're the professional here... But shouldn't the examples be 'I wrote his number down" and "I cleaned up the mess"? I'm sure there is a technical term for the use of the language you are displaying here, but without any context - these are awkward English sentences!
Because those are what we call "separable phrasal verbs" you say either: I wrote his number down OR I wrote down his number. And: I cleaned the mess up OR I cleaned up the mess. If you can put something like "it", "him", "her" or "them" between the verb and the preposition (I cleaned IT up), the phrasal verb is separable, meaning you have a choice. I guess native speakers often have preferences, though. E.g. It might be more common for you personally to say "I cleaned up the mess", but other people might prefer the other option. I hope that makes sense! In this video I explain what a phrasal verb is: ua-cam.com/video/7MmuUYiEuFM/v-deo.html They're a nightmare for English learners!
Hmmm... It's gonna be hard to get my point across because I don't have any language qualifications or speak the geek that you'll need to understand... But I will give it one last shot... I'm not trying to take away anything from what you are doing... It's just "I write down his number" seems like Chinglish to me... It's not a sentence that any native English speaker would use on it's own... It's probably, technically, a correct sentence... and we get what is going on but just about any other variation of these words would be used in everyday life... Seems like it's half a sentence to me... they should be more like... Please wait, while I write down his number. or I know she likes a tidy kitchen, so I clean up the mess. i'm too unschooled to get my point across I am writing down his number. or I wrote down his number. I'll clean the mess up. or I picked Frank up off the floor or I picked up Chlamydia from Frank I feel like i'm about to get schooled! B
Don't worry, I get the point you're trying to make :). There are countless examples of sentences which, while grammatically correct, native speakers simply wouldn't use. (I have a masters in translation, so I'm fully aware of those!) However, I think sometimes it's subjective. Those sentences might sound awkward to you, but they don't sound awkward to me. I also show my videos to my parents (and my mother has basically no idea of grammar), and they point out things that sound strange to them. As I said, some things are preferences. It's an interesting thing to discuss, though, so don't worry, I'm not offended!
I just thought of a sentence which might sound less awkward to you, but in which "write down" sound better together: Please write down everything he says in the meeting. (I think that sounds better than: Please write everything down that he says in the meeting. OR Please write everything he says in the meeting down.)
What a important introduction to the phrasal verb jungle! I am filling up my English education the empty spaces.
Don't carry on. It is only a game.

Max, could you explain what is the difference between "want" and "wish" ?

Max, what the phrasal verb "breed apart" means?

I could'nt figure it out what a particle means in English grammar. (separable phrasal verb). I call on my friend once in a while. (inseparable).
Very good! Just a couple of small corrections in the first sentence:
I couldn't figure out what a particle means in English grammar.
(If you didn't have "what a particle means..." then you could just say: I couldn't figure it out. The "it" would replace the "what a particle means".)
I hope that makes sense!
I like your accent so attrective
