The best dignity of Greg is the fewer words, the more meaning: precise examples, short videos, clear pronunciation, authentic British accent. Keep doing your great job, dude! Миллионы учителей английского стоят в сторонке и тихо плачут, потому что Грег их оставил без работы. Тонны печатного хлама лежит в мусорной корзине.
Thank you, Greg! Finally a clear definition of when to use "whether or not". I really enjoy the way you explain. Keep it up like this! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos. ;)
I am from California. I find myself rephrasing my sentences in order to use "whether" less often. "I don't know if he'd rather have tea or coffee" vs " I don't know whether he prefers tea or coffee" or "Have you decided if (you are going to) go to college?" VS " Have you decided whether to go to college". (You are going to) gets contracted to (you're gonna) so it gets shortened to (Have you decided if you're gonna go to college), but then is it really important to ask someone if/whether they decided? Most of the time it isn't, so it gets further contracted to " Are you gonna go to college?" then you don't have to use this "if/whether" thing at all. Guess what, if you are having a personal conversation and it is just the 2 of you then it is not necessary to say "Are" if you use upper inflection on the word college "You gonna go to college?" I'm not telling you to write like this but it's fine in conversation. Using inflection to make context might be too advanced.
I suspect some of this lesson is deferential to British usage. I agree with everything in this lesson, but some of the distinctions he presents may not be as rigid in American usage.
Greg,it is really captivating the way you explain english grammar.I was wondering if you could explain in details the following structures 1.I would like to have done this. 2.I would have liked to have done this. 3.He has to have done something to deserve this. Pl.explain the grammar involved in these sentences. Perhaps,a subject for a video.Waiting for your next video.
I don't understand why in the sentence "I called the restaurant to see whether it was open" (1:15) we can use both "whether" and "if", whereas in the sentence "I don't know whether he wants a cup of tea" (3:25) we can't. In both cases, there are two options: restaurant is open VS closed, and he wants a cup of tea VS doesn't want.
oooh What wonderful teacher you are!! beautiful voice & English. I do love your lessons. I will study more examples from your book. Many thanks from Chile. Maria.
Well done teacher, l appreciate your efforts. I have a question Which one is correct? The reporter wanted to know if........... to hold hands as........... A- l tried / l feel B- l tried / l had feel c- l had tried / l feel D- he tried / he fall
I don't know wether you are the best teacher but I can say this lesson is the best explanation I found about wether and if! I appreciate the way you teach us ; thanks ! I'll watch the video again because right now it's still time to sleep, and I didn't care if you talk about "if" is used for more than two options. See you later ! 220801
Very helpful lesson! I was not sure if there would be new knowledge to me , but I found a few points I didn't used correctly. Thank you so much. I like your British accents too.
Hi Grey, the video was amazing. You made me realize that learning grammar can be a lot of fun. I am going to write some sentences and hope they are right. I dont know whether to go out for dinner tonight. I am thinking about whether to visit my friends tomorrow. May has not decided whether to move to UK.
Wow! Beautiful explanation and useful class! So, in some cases, we could possibly be kind of rude if we use IF instead of whether, like "I don't care about other possibilities", "don't you say a word unless you have a positive answer". Lol
Hello there!! Thank you for your clear explanation. Well, I have a question. In the sentence when you say we should use whether after a preposition... the exemple is: I am thinking about whether to accept the job. I have learned that after prepositons we should use ING form. So, following this rule the sentence should go like this: I am thinking about whether accpeting the job. Does the word whether in the sentece change this rule? Verb pattern is really confusing ... well, I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you
And if there is "if" for two options (like - I can't decide if this or that one) should I use some other constructions, like gerund, or should it be infinitive without to? Like: I can't decide if wear yellow or green hat. Thank you so much in advance!
I'm little confused 😕 when you're asking about restaurant there's also two options (it's open or it's closed). Why then can I use whether and if interchangeably?
Excellent video, as always👍 If I were you, I would be very proud of myself. I don’t know whether to wash dishes so late this time. Sadly, my wife said, whether I like it or not, all dishes must be washed before bed.
Excuse me. Could you please make a lesson about words like crooked beloved...etc. when do we pronounce them i d d t or id ? Thank you very much indeed in advance.

Да)
Я ему очень сильно благодарен за простое объяснение сложных тем!
It quite obvious, comrade Suhov, the teacher who taught you English did a poor job. 😂
Greg - you are masterful.
One of the best English Grammar videos on UA-cam.
That was very clear. I really appreciate your classes Greg. Cheers!
"Whether or not" --> Finally a translation for the Spanish expression "si o si". You are a star!
“No matter what” is a better translation for “sí o si” 😉
Best British accent... Much helpfull... Thank you teacher 🙏🇮🇳
No one has explained this topic like you before.😀🙏👍
You are awsome and very helpful and you make everything much easier!!!
Your methodology is simply the best!! Amazing videos Greg, keep it up. Thx
Thank you, Greg! Finally a clear definition of when to use "whether or not". I really enjoy the way you explain. Keep it up like this! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos. ;)
Very sympathetic man with clear explanations, love your videos!
Thumbs up to some of us who have been using these words correctly regardless of such a clear explanation like this,
Thanks 👍 so much teacher Greg🎉❤❤

Wow Greg, sounds simple when you explain. Why nobody told me that before? Tnx, a big hug from Rio de Janeiro.
I enjoy your lessons, you explain it in a very comprehensive way 🎉
This was comprehensive! Thanks!

Very helpful😊
They are crystal clear.Nobody can have explained so better.Thank you.P Siva Rao,India.
I really like listening to your British accent... "Better" "whether"
I bet Greg comes from northern England. He repeatedly pronounces the short vocal "u" like "u" in "put", e.g. in words like "does" or "result" etc.
I've just find your videos there are so helpful
I don't understand why in the sentence "I called the restaurant to see whether it was open" (1:15) we can use both "whether" and "if", whereas in the sentence "I don't know whether he wants a cup of tea" (3:25) we can't. In both cases, there are two options: restaurant is open VS closed, and he wants a cup of tea VS doesn't want.
You're an amazing teacher. Cheers up!
Your explanation is very clear and helpful. Thank you so much.
