You must be pure British 😂your brilliant accent giving me life energy which makes me feel refresh my soul ✋Frankly, i was unlucky cause i could not meet such a lovely teacher 25 years ago lol 😂😂
This is perfect. More of this slang and idioms! I wonder how good my English would have been if we had started with slang and idioms - and PhrasalVerbs! - at school?
Please make a video on Slangs,Idioms and phrasal verbs . Thanks in advance Ma'am!!!🌈 If i wouldnt have seen this video would have never guessed that pissed means drunk in UK😂😂😂Thx for telling that so much . M saved from a lot of trouble honestly😂
I was taught English in school from age 7, but English is not an official language in my country, so as you may expect, it was treated as a second language (because for everyone, it actually was). And during my 11 years of formal English studies, never have I once heard the rule about avoiding the usage of prepositions at the end of sentences; frankly, we were taught that way to begin with (like right here)
I have experienced, that a some series of school books have different ways to teach. When I was starting to learn, we were taught whole phrases first and learned the short forms later (I will not learn. - I won't learn.) Today they already start with the short forms, but then it's sometimes harder to learn I think...🤔
As a native speaker, it makes me realise how difficult it is to become fluent in everyday English. The idiom varies so much from place to place, as do the accents..... 's hard innit? 😀
English is very easy. The problem is that native speakers don't pronounce words well, especially when talking about Americans. They pronounce words as if something in your mouth is preventing you from speaking.
I loooooove learning and trying to understand idioms. My high school English teacher made me fall in love with it and since then i've enjoyed finding new ones to fill my list.
I'm Brazilian, and i decided to learn English by myself and, it took me some good 5 years to figure it out all that "spoken English" aspect of conversations, i think it's very important to understand tha in order to express your thoughts properly in English because, when you don't, it's amazing how much people look at you asking themselves "omg, where did you came from, 1985?😂", and that can work against you on a conversation. First channel that i see this aspect of the language being even talked about, just recommend your channel to one of my friends trying to learn the language as weel, your channel is great! Thanks for the knowledge
Great video! As a Swede I was taught English at school from an early age, yet I've always found it difficult to understand native English speakers. That was until I realised that I was always thinking Swedish when listening to English people talking, like translating every word I hear to Swedish to understand what was said. So I stopped doing that and instead started to think English instead, listening with an English ear and not with a Swedish ear, and in that way I could understand native English speakers way much better!
one of the main reasons that discourage me from studying English and trying to get better at speaking it is to think that no matter how much I study, I’ll never be able to talk as fast as a native-English speaker. that way, there would be no chance I could compete with someone who has English as their mother language for a job or something. have you ever thought that way? if so, how did you send this horrible conception of incapacity away?
That's great that you've been able to improve your English by thinking in English. Currently I'm trying to learn French, and I want to get to the level where I can think in French without translating to English (I have yet to get there though). I find your English impressive, I imagine you worked hard to get to the point you're now at. Your English is so good, I want to offer one little correction to a phrase you used. You said at the end "way much better," which sounds kinda funny to English ears. You can say "way better," or you can say "much better," but not "way much better." Those two words "way" and "much" can't be put together like that. Like I said before, your English is amazing, I hope to attain that same level in a second language some day. Cheers!
@@ozmorfgamereviews Thanks a millon, for your answer and for correcting my errors! Much appreciated! I've studied French too, actually. Also in school. But only for three years though, and I've never been so into being fluent in French (even if that would be great as well!). Of course, the method I used to understand English better demands that you already know enough of the language you wish to improve. But I still believe that at least one of the keys to learn and "get" a language quicker is to think the language while listening to it, and not your native tongue. To me, when trying it, it was a mindblowing experience! I thought about it, and tried it by watching an UK talk show clip on youtube, and I was ashtonished how my English improved when I "switched off" Swedish in my brain and switched on English! Thanks again for your message, credit and boost, and I wish to you good luck with your French studies! I hope the technique I used may help you somehow. Cheers!
@@catallystic I'm sorry if I came across as harsh towards you in my first response. I was in a hurry and read your message too quick and answered it even quicker! Now, I see I must've seemed quite obnoxious. Not my intention at all. My apologies! But anyway, try the method I described and I can assure you that you'll notice positive differences! And the more you practise by "switching off" your native tongue and switch on English when eg. watching an English TV show or Film, the quicker you will see a change in your understanding of the English language. At least, that worked for me! About competing with native English speakers when it comes to work opportunities, I would say - without living in any native English speaking country - that it may depend on what profession you wish to have. But as I understand, many companies really do appreciate diversites in their organisations, weather different backgrounds and dialects. Many companies of today see it as a strength to reflect the present society within their organisation - and since our society today is global, well, then there you go! So maybe that's where you'll may find your strength where your "weakness" may in fact be your edge! And I really do believe your English is more than good enough already if you wish to try applying for a job in a native English speaking country! Good luck! Cheers!
You're the english teacher I would've wished to have in school. Though the one that formed my interest in the english language wasn't half bad, either. He would once a week record the BFBS morning news and bring the tape to class to have us listen to native speakers. I enjoyed that, quite unlike my fellow classmates...
I am a native english speaker, however I find these videos very entertaining and informative regarding what I can do to make my speech more understandable to non-native English speakers, as well as the strange nuances you pick up as a native speaker.
Thank you Lucy, this video is really useful for English learners. I didn't realise that I am guilty of using elisions and contractions in my daily conversations until you mentioned it in your video.
I wouldn't have missed a day of class if she had been my English instructor, and I would have come to see, hear, and worship her voice and beauty every day.
I prefer to listen how to improve our english well in each detail. I totally agree what you said to fluently speak English. Thank your course to make me enjoy learning it.
У меня никогда не было английского в школе да и я никогда не любил этот язык, брался за любой другой язык , лишь бы не изучать английский, он мне казался каким-то слишком экспрессивным и странным, но Вас я хорошо понимаю, не знаю, как Вы это делаете.😅 Мне теперь хочется научиться говорить на английском, тем более на британском даже веселее) У Вас так всё красиво звучит, совсем не так, как в моих прежних предвзятых представлениях! Боюсь, что я влюблюсь в этот язык)) Спасибо Вам огромное!!!🤗 Обязательно подпишусь!
Я плохо знаю английский, и ещё хуже я его воспринимаю на аудирование, но её английский просто прекрасный, если бы все так говорили, было бы гораздо проще учиться и разговаривать с носителями языка)))
I love these videos it's always a pleasure to see how well you explain things to people. I grew up bilingual, speaking German and English, and I always found it confusing in school in Germany how strictly we had to adhere to the textbooks to get a good grade... I had a grade 4 in English consistently, lol.
I caught Lucy up in 10 minutes. Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial as always! I started speaking in English after meeting you and now I'm very confident in English it's because of you that I started speaking in English with everyone, I was afraid that everyone will embarrass me because of my English accents. I've a good confidence and I can talk in English with everyone from all over the world and I hope to come to the United States soon.! Always for Lucy
Not sure why this was recommended to me, but it's always interesting learning about things that native speakers just implicitly do. My favourite example is adjective order - I had no idea this was a thing, even though I was doing it perfectly.
Iam a student and I haven't finished my secondary education in learning English but l was surprised that I completely understood your explanation. you explain in a very simple way . Greetings from Egypt ✨️❤️❤️
@@guyrabinowitz I do not know, but I liked her explanation, and I see that it is very simple, but if you see that her explanation is not so good, and you know someone who explains it in a simpler way, tell me.
One of the best things from my school years is that we were able to learn English from elementary school. So I'm learning English since the age of 9 and now I confidently understand most of the movies, TV shows or any videos without struggle. Fun fact: Lucy seems pretty slow to me.
Perfect I love the English language and I wanted to fine-tune my advanced English because I learned everything by watching everything in English without subtitles. Now I've visited London twice and Ireland once but here in Germany nobody can speak with me on this level. I look forward to taking your test. Maybe I'll even try out the service to get a native-speaking teacher if I can afford it 😅
Comecei a aprender ingles por conta própria faz mais ou menos 50 dias , e gosto de assistir o canal da lucy , nao entendo quase nada ainda mas vou melhorando dia apos dia . E aqui e uma das fontes de estudo. Excellent video Luci. Here from Brazil following your channel.
Living in Scandinavia when growing up I was taught proper English before going to school and learing the curriculum English taught here and I often got into arguments with my teatchers because I was taught every day English instead of the curriculum one first. Still kept the one I was taught first since that's the one I've been used to from the beginning.
That fact, that I can understand the speaker and I don't have enough skills for speaking fluently myself, makes me feel, that that one, whose speech I understand, himself doesn't know English at native level. So he doesn't use some rare words or idioms and so I am able to understand him. And the same with such tutor videos. Tutor tries to use well known to everyone words. That makes me feel that Lucy herself also learns English with us 😄
Thank you for this video. It does really improve not only my listening skills but also little did u know it does help me so much in my writing too..i learnt quite a lot from this and from your other videos too.❤well then one thing is i still need to learn to master the idioms and slang cause i remembered my friend were been using it quite a lot during our conversations and it took century for me to be able to catch her meaning🤭btw wish you a great day always Mdm Lucy🎉💐
Fun fact: replace 'english' with 'french' and you'll find out this whole video also applies to english natives learning French. And I suspect this would apply to any examples. You're spot on Lucy, the begining of the voyage is when one actually dives in for real. And I'm not refering to globish, but rather English.
Yes mam.A separate video on slangs and idioms is what I'm now craving for....a bit more explanation is what i need to be cleared... anyway, enjoyed this video very much.Just how charming your teaching is! I look forward to seeing you in person one day if almighty graces.take love❤
I studied in a course in my town and finished in 2016, since then it's been difficult to find someone to talk in English, altough I teach one or two children in a year. I wish I had found your channel long ago.Well, your tips about not finishing a phrase with prepositions were so valeable, because in the course where I studied they didn't teach such thing which's why I tend to finish some sentences with prepositions like: who do you work with? Thanks to you I know I must say: with whom do you work? But I also know it's rare to see someone saying that perfect and correct English. Everytime I watch TV series see this kinda informal use.
That is a very interesting video. Thank you very much Lucy for your efforts. I wish I had such a good teacher like you in school. It would be nice to see more videos that focus on idioms and slang.
Hello, I'm from Brazil, and... I started my studies in English (focused on British speech) less than a month ago, and I'm already watching your video and almost understanding everything. (I'm sorry for any writing errors hahaha); I really liked your video.
I really need a B2 English level lesson in order to take my English into the next level....Anyways thank you so much for being a lovely teacher throughout my entire journey ❤️🙏
I remember how after american english book, read british english book! As a non-native speaker... it was soooo mindblowing! I learned so much idioms! (and I'm very proud that I understand everything what you said even without looking on screen! I made an online test yesterday. 50 minutes: read and hear. C2... not so sure about this, but so proud))))
I don't know if you already have a video on idioms and phrases or not but after watching this I'd surely want to have one. Please make one if possible.
Thank you for the video Lucy. I’m an American that had to take speech therapy as a child, I couldn’t pronounce my R’s and after a year I could speak decently, tried learning Spanish but still can’t roll the R’s. Love the channel and everything language or speech based❤
Hello, Lucy :) Thanks a lot for these wonderful tips🙏 Learning slang is my cup of tea :) So, I'd be chuffed, if you dedicated a video for that :) Greetings from Türkiye👋 Çağlar.
You know you've made it when you can understand a New Yorker. As a fellow NYer myself, when I moved to Florida I had to really slow down my speech speed for even native speakers to understand me. 😆
You're spot on. When I moved to England many years ago I could hardly understand anybody in shops and on the streets where I leave. They speak very differently to what I was used to (American English and Standard British English). At one point I questioned my entire English skills, as I genuinely struggled to understand most people around me. Surrouding myself by native speakers is what really helped me to understand them more easily and speak the way they speak.
Oh how I understand the pain 😁 My first week in Scotland went smoothly and I didn't encounter any problems understanding people. Then I met a true Scotsman. I stood there with eyes wide open and asked my fried afterwards if he understood any of it. The best part was, a year later I had a boss from Glasgow. I couldn't understand him sometimes no mater how hard I tried. I learned to nod and smile 😊
Im American and even I have trouble with Scotts. It's said my great grandfather spoke with such a strong accent that he had to have his children translate for him.
Lucy! You’re amazing! I’ve been recommending your videos to my students. I adore your British accent, it’s the one I use in class ( I’ve been listening to British music since my early teenage years and I was in Brighton for my training course for two months so Ive had the accent in the genes 😅) and my students go “your accent is different “ as they’re used to hear American accent from previous teachers or English with no connected speech nor contractions. Keep the superb work. ❤Tunisia
So true what she said in the beginning. I too understand her perfectly without ever looking at the subtitles...but British movies and soaps is a different ballgame altogether
I prefer to listen how to improve my english well in each details. I totally agree what you said to fluently speak english. So thank you for making me enjoy learning it.😊

I was taught English in school from age 7, but English is not an official language in my country, so as you may expect, it was treated as a second language (because for everyone, it actually was). And during my 11 years of formal English studies, never have I once heard the rule about avoiding the usage of prepositions at the end of sentences; frankly, we were taught that way to begin with (like right here)
I am not sure if this is taught down to the present, but it certainly was 25 years ago.
Same, it's considered second language except most people still doesn't understand english yet.
I have experienced, that a some series of school books have different ways to teach. When I was starting to learn, we were taught whole phrases first and learned the short forms later (I will not learn. - I won't learn.)
Today they already start with the short forms, but then it's sometimes harder to learn I think...🤔
I grew up in USA and therefore English is not an official language in my country either :)
Me too. I'm 40 and since primary school i used prepositions at the end of the sentences..🙄
As a native speaker, it makes me realise how difficult it is to become fluent in everyday English. The idiom varies so much from place to place, as do the accents..... 's hard innit? 😀
English is very easy. The problem is that native speakers don't pronounce words well, especially when talking about Americans. They pronounce words as if something in your mouth is preventing you from speaking.
I need you help dear
I lived in Manchester when I was a kid, lost the accent now sadly, when I listen to the accent again now, boy it's so difficult to listen to
Yep would never know this until u meet a non native speaker
What's obvious to me is utterly confusing to them
It ain’t that hard 😜
i can Understand You, your pronunciation is the Best i have heard it is clean and natural
thanks for your teaching lucy

you're so amazing Lucy and your content is fantastic. thank you for it.
Brilliant lady with brilliant English and brilliant appearance!

Thank you Lucy 🧡🧡🧡 for fantastic lesson 💯
💯💯💯
Best English teacher on the Earth！Love Lucy so much❤❤
Your a best english teacher ❤❤❤
The best.. and not A best
I studied in a course in my town and finished in 2016, since then it's been difficult to find someone to talk in English, altough I teach one or two children in a year. I wish I had found your channel long ago.Well, your tips about not finishing a phrase with prepositions were so valeable, because in the course where I studied they didn't teach such thing which's why I tend to finish some sentences with prepositions like: who do you work with? Thanks to you I know I must say: with whom do you work? But I also know it's rare to see someone saying that perfect and correct English. Everytime I watch TV series see this kinda informal use.
That is a very interesting video. Thank you very much Lucy for your efforts. I wish I had such a good teacher like you in school. It would be nice to see more videos that focus on idioms and slang.
Great option! :)
Hello, I'm from Brazil, and... I started my studies in English (focused on British speech) less than a month ago, and I'm already watching your video and almost understanding everything. (I'm sorry for any writing errors hahaha); I really liked your video.
Спасибо за прекрасный урок
Ur style of teaching is so loving
I really need a B2 English level lesson in order to take my English into the next level....Anyways thank you so much for being a lovely teacher throughout my entire journey ❤️🙏

I remember how after american english book, read british english book! As a non-native speaker... it was soooo mindblowing! I learned so much idioms! (and I'm very proud that I understand everything what you said even without looking on screen! I made an online test yesterday. 50 minutes: read and hear. C2... not so sure about this, but so proud))))
That's very good and if we connect with you and understand
Please make a video on Slangs,Idioms and phrasal verbs .
Thanks in advance Ma'am!!!🌈
Your accent is clear and soft. I understood almost all words. By the way nice sweater :)
Audiobooks with your pronunciation, please 🍰☕
I don't know if you already have a video on idioms and phrases or not but after watching this I'd surely want to have one. Please make one if possible.
Informal contractions would be a really nice topic video to improve.
Thank you so ch for your lessons! 😊
That's a great idea! :)
Thank you for the video Lucy. I’m an American that had to take speech therapy as a child, I couldn’t pronounce my R’s and after a year I could speak decently, tried learning Spanish but still can’t roll the R’s. Love the channel and everything language or speech based❤
There is no point to study English at school coz we have to learn everything over again! 😂 thanks Lucy ❤
Teacher Lo C, Great Personalty for UA-camr💘💯❤
That's very good and if we connect with you and understand as per accent.
The form "she didn't know to whom to give the gift" is more intuitive for me because it is similar in french.
Thank God❤❤
I have finally found someone who speaks purest form of English.
Iam from India This is very usefully video Thanks miss Lucy
Hello, Lucy :) Thanks a lot for these wonderful tips🙏 Learning slang is my cup of tea :) So, I'd be chuffed, if you dedicated a video for that :) Greetings from Türkiye👋 Çağlar.
Great option!
Definitely yes for a video about slang and idioms .... it's always a pleasure to learn something from you lucy..
Definitely, a video about slang and idioms would be fantastic. Great job!
Excellent option!
your lesson was so important ❤
If you can understand Lee Mack when he's joking around, you can understand everything! 😂
Haha, exactly!
讲的太好了，发音很好听，想起中学时期的英语老师那发音简直就是鸭叫！
It's easier to understand American accent than the British
On the contrary, American is more complicated than British.
Americans pronounce T as D, it makes American more hard to do.😂
For real dude, it's way confusing and more complicated
I'm french and I discover your channel just now and I'm amazed the way I can easily understand you Oo
عندي قاموس إنجليزي عربي في قناتي 🎉... مرحباً بكم...
I love Lucy as my teacher becuse she spoke slightly slower pace so I can learn well
That is the most clean english I've ever heard! 😍
You know you've made it when you can understand a New Yorker. As a fellow NYer myself, when I moved to Florida I had to really slow down my speech speed for even native speakers to understand me. 😆
Lol, i understand it, my region has the same problem. Portuguese natives speaker's can't understand our "minerês"
I'm Learing From Bangladesh, Your English is Very Understandable and Clear as Well!
I'm from Algeria 🇩🇿, l will do my best to learn more with you ,thanks a bunch
I love you Lucy and your charismatic way of teaching! Keep up the excellent work and thank you so very much!
You're spot on. When I moved to England many years ago I could hardly understand anybody in shops and on the streets where I leave. They speak very differently to what I was used to (American English and Standard British English). At one point I questioned my entire English skills, as I genuinely struggled to understand most people around me. Surrouding myself by native speakers is what really helped me to understand them more easily and speak the way they speak.
Oh how I understand the pain 😁 My first week in Scotland went smoothly and I didn't encounter any problems understanding people. Then I met a true Scotsman. I stood there with eyes wide open and asked my fried afterwards if he understood any of it. The best part was, a year later I had a boss from Glasgow. I couldn't understand him sometimes no mater how hard I tried. I learned to nod and smile 😊
Im American and even I have trouble with Scotts. It's said my great grandfather spoke with such a strong accent that he had to have his children translate for him.
Thank you Lucy... ❤❤❤ keep it up. I'm learning so much from you.
Me too ❣️💕 she's so cute And her voice ☺️
Lucy! You’re amazing!
I’ve been recommending your videos to my students.
I adore your British accent, it’s the one I use in class ( I’ve been listening to British music since my early teenage years and I was in Brighton for my training course for two months so Ive had the accent in the genes 😅) and my students go “your accent is different “ as they’re used to hear American accent from previous teachers or English with no connected speech nor contractions. Keep the superb work.
❤Tunisia
Si todo el mundo hablara el inglés como Lucy, todo me sería más fácil.
So true what she said in the beginning. I too understand her perfectly without ever looking at the subtitles...but British movies and soaps is a different ballgame altogether
Thanks you for teaching me.I like your teaching styles. I like your channel and video. The best teacher.
Thanks Lucy, so kind.
I prefer to listen how to improve my english well in each details. I totally agree what you said to fluently speak english. So thank you for making me enjoy learning it.😊
