    Jennifer is a flower which spreads it's fragrance every time she shares a video. A fragrance that soothes our senses and takes us on an awesome journey of language learning.
    Jennifer is like a shady tree which helps learners to relax under it's shade and calms their anxieties.
    Thanks Jennifer for being terribly generous!

    P.s. there's a typo in the script in 7:11 (2ndm)

    • @Englishwithjennifer
      @Englishwithjennifer  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Ra'ed. Since you've been wonderfully consistent keeping up with my lessons, I know you're familiar with parallel structure, hyperbole, idioms, homophones, and likely a few others. I decided to put them all together and add a few more in a comprehensive lesson. Another viewer had asked about oxymorons, so it was a good time to do this.
      Thanks for catching the typo! I deleted the extra "m." That key is next to the comma, so I hit the "m" by mistake. There's one other small mistake in the video that I can't change anymore, but oh well. If that's the only one, I'm quite pleased. It's hard to proofread my own text. By the way, it's a missing comma in a form of address. Maybe you'll see it now in one of the movie clips.

      The pattern with "by" will be understood, but I'd like to teach you a more common one.

      You can also Google "late by fifty minutes," and you'll get about 195 results.

    My writing:
    Baby pigeon story .
    Today in the morning, i emerged from the bathroom, and who should greet me, perched defiantly on the balcony railing. It was the erstwhile about to die baby pigeon.. Not shy at all, as i closed up on him, it said, up yours, and flew into the neighbouring tree where it amourously necked with a fellow pigeon.
    "How shameless", I muttered, "no respect to the elderly."
    Moral of the story .. Let the birds be, they will find their way.. They don't need your unsolicited sympathy and love.
    This we put out their daily feed of मक्का and बाजरा in the balcony.. Which they share with the squirrels and other small and big organisms.. And that's it.
    Have a good day as i go to a zoom call. 🤠🤠
    Above is the end of the story of our attempt to save a baby pigeon from the visiting cat. It was trapped in my balcony facing the road side. Three days ago, the pigeon was too weak to fly and had lost its confidence.
