This is a passage to describe my friend.
My friend is Jack, he is 19 approximately 19 years old. He has a curly black hair. His hair is shaved at the back and the two side, and swept to one side on left side.
He has well-definded face looking. He has a faint winkle at his forehead as well as his cheek. When he smiles, he creates dimple which looks so lovely.
He used to have a gut. However, as far as I know, he has been maintaining his healthy daily activities from eating, taking physical exercise and call it a day early. Recently, he owns himself muscular physique
Hi Vinh. Thank you for watching and sharing your response. Here are some corrections for you:
1) 'He has curly black hair,' not, 'He has a curly black hair.'
2) '...the two sides,' not, '...the two side.'
3) 'He has a well-defined face,' not, 'He has well-definded face looking.'
Hope this is useful for you!

Nice response, Margarete. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...this video...' or, '...these videos...' not, 'these.'
2) 'My best friend is well-built,' not, 'has.'
3) Use the apostrophe here: 'She's in good...' not, 'She`s in...'
Hope this helps you!

Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!
Really helpful. Great!
Glad you liked it!
Hi, everyone, I am Yan. Today I'm going to talk about one of my customers, she is eighty years old, she has short grey very stylished hair. Her face is an oval shap with crow's feet and wrinkles in front of her high forehead. She always smiles when she talks which is fast. I n my opinion, she is straight foreward person: once, she mentioned her husband was a dentist, but he had dementia a few years ago and lived at a retirement village not far from her apartment. we said we are sorry to hear it, and she said to us, don't be sorry, she is quite happy now. She has her health and has money. She just visited her husband once a week. Other times, she can do whatever, she wants to do.
Thanks for watching the lesson and sharing your response, Yan! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...stylish hair,' not, 'stylished.'
2) 'shape,' not, 'shap.'
3) You might have meant, 'at the top of her high forehead,' or, 'in the middle of her high forehead,' rather than, 'in front of.'
Hope this helps you!
Very cognitive lesson ) Thank you very much)
You're welcome! Glad you liked it.
Thank you guys it was so useful I really enjoyed
Great! We're glad you liked it, Saharica!
Thank you very much for this lesson which is very helpful. I have three questions:
Q1 if someone generally is not overweight but has got a big belly, could I say "He has a medium build with a big belly"? YES
Q2 could I say "He's going bald and has a receding hairline"? He's going bald./ He has a receding hairline.
Q3 How do you describe someone's height? Could I say he is very tall, over six feet three"? Correction: He's very tall, over six foot three.
Thank you.
Nice questions! Yes, you can say someone has a 'big belly' if their belly is big, but they're not necessarily fat. Your second question is good, though I would pick one or the other. For the third question, that is correct. However, the expression for height is: 'six foot three' and not 'feet'.
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Then you so much for spending time correcting my answers.
Entendible, tenga un buen día👍
bien dicho que tenga un buen dia
Thank you for video ❤️❤️❤️ so much nice

Part I: Describing bodies 0:34; Part II: Describing faces 3:13; Part III: Describing hair 5:33
is there any order to describe physical appearance?
Hi there. If you are describing a person's complete appearance, it's common to begin with the general features first and then move to the more specific features. For example, start with the body overall, then the hair, then the face. Hope this helps you!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 omg THANKS !! I was a little confused about it ... So I can can start by describing the general features and then the specific ones
I have a square face,shoulder-long black straight hair. I like sweeping my hair into a ponytail.
I have freckles because my skin is thin.
Currently, I got a gut.
Nice response. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...face and straight, black, shoulder-length hair,' not, '...face,shoulder-long black straight hair.'
2) 'Currently, I've got a gut,' or, 'I have a gut,' not, 'I got a gut'.
Hope this is useful for you!
Hello welcome best video thak you
Sir/Madam,
I have a doubt
1)Being embarrassed, I claimed up and fell sick.
Or
2)Being embarrassed, I claimed up and fall sick.
What is the correct sentence?
After claimed up present verb or past tense verb ?
well, if both are in past tense then the 1st one is correct i'd assume
Hi Mohamed, you would say: 'I clammed up and fell sick", since you are talking about the past in this situation.
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 thank you so much

Hi Lion, thanks for the suggestion! We have a lesson on illness and medicine which might be helpful for you: www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/talk-about-illness-medicine.
Thanks so much for your lesson! 🙂
Here is my example:
I would like to talk about my friend. Her name is Ivy. She has a round face with a high forehead and double chin. She looks very young and no one in my class thinks that she is a university student. She has a lovely complexion and thick shoulder-length straight hair. She looks very charming with her snaggletooth. She has a well-proportioned body because she goes to the gym to work out on a daily basis.
We're happy you shared your response, Vy! Excellent writing!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Thanks a lot! 🙂

What different between 'jaw' and 'chin' ?
Hi there. The jaw is the whole structure of bone that frames the mouth and holds the teeth. The chin is the center part of the jaw in front, right below your bottom front teeth. Hope this helps you!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Thank you very mach for your explanation. It makes me clear now.
Siberia watches. Thanks for such great work!
You're welcome! We're glad you liked it.
That's awesome
My sister is quite short in size..she has wavy medium length copper color hair..hse has chiseled features with cheek bones...she gets a dimple when she smile..she has fair skin which go red when she laughs...
Nice vedio
Thanks for the comment, Yousri!
My father is short but well-built. He has a big gut because he drank a lot of beer. He is a farmer and works on the field all day so his skin is tanned. He has round face and deep wrinkles in his forhead. He is over 60 this year. This makes his hair go white so quickly that he has to use hair dye quite often.
Thanks for sharing, Bui! Here are some corrections for you:
1) 'He has a round face,' not, 'He has round face'.
2) '...on his forehead,' not, 'in'.
Hope this helps you!
