    First, I would like to appreciate the quality of your content. I truly enjoyed listening to the video; it was a great deal of British expressions. Lastly, I will be on cloud nine, if you make more videos about the RP accent. I'm trying to learn this accent as I'm going to move to UK the coming year.

    Hi Leila,
    Loooooooooots of thanks for such spiffing stuff.
    I hope I used them correctly in this context :)
    It's really one of your most fascinating lessons and videos, especially with your high ability to mimic those actresses who play roles of aristocratic ladies in the English society in films like "A Tale Of Two Cities" :)
    Could u please suggest me, or us if anybody else is interested, 15 British Films to watch to listen to authentic British accent in its daily normal pace, not as in educational materials as they are far slower than in films.
    Thanks in advance and thousands thumb up
    Cheers,
    Ahmad,

    • @LoveEnglishwithLeilaSabrah
      @LoveEnglishwithLeilaSabrah  6 років тому +1

      Hi Ahmad, firstly, thank you for the very kind comment! It really made me smile! 😊 I’ll try do di a video on the best British films to learn English, but if you want to hear a clear accent, I love Nottinghill, Bridget jones, Love Actually and James Bond is always a good choice! Just some of my personal favourites! 😊😊😊

    • @Abu-Aley

    “Ta ta” and “tatty bye” are more usual today than “toodle pip”. My father-in-law always asked “How’s tricks?” for how are you? He also used to ask if “we’d had a gay time”! Couldn’t say that today!

    • @petermoody6147
      @petermoody6147 6 років тому +2

      To: Ekaterina Sogny - Yes it would. "What tosh" can be equated to 'What nonsense' or 'what rubbish'. Other word replacements for tosh could be 'balderdash'', ''piffle', 'tripe' and 'twaddle'.

    • @petermoody6147
      @petermoody6147 6 років тому

      To: Love English with Leila & Sabrah - Thank you for your kindness of thought Leila, but I fear it is misplaced. Whilst I do not possess the academic credentials to be considered an authority, like your good self, it is to be hoped that after my entire fifty-nine years of exposure to the language, i would have acquired a modicum of understanding as to its practice and application; ha,ha!
      Nonetheless, once again, thank you.

    • @LoveEnglishwithLeilaSabrah
      @LoveEnglishwithLeilaSabrah  6 років тому +1

      I think teachers can often become focussed on the grammar and rules of a language and overlook important aspects of how a language is really spoken, so a native speaker’s input is always welcome. Thank you ☺️
