    I forgot to include the answer to sentence 9. : ( It's an incorrect sentence because "advice" is an uncountable noun. We cannot add an "s".

      @مصطفىإدريسي-ز1ك 2 роки тому +17

      That's funny, In the Arabic language, advice is a countable noun, we say "one advice, two advices..." so we have the plural...
      I guess every language has different rules.

    • @AccurateEnglish
      @AccurateEnglish  2 роки тому +18

      The correct sentence is: "Thank you for your excellent advice. "It really helped me." We use "it" with uncountable nouns.

  • @ФирдавсФайзиев-щ2я

    Rise and shine, Lisa!
    I watched and corrected and improved my English grammar competency where I lagged behind. But while watching it, I came across you fourth question and didn't quite well understand your explanation. I wonder why you didn't backshift " have to " into " had to . It is a reported speech and verbs must be backshifted into one tense back. That's called a sequence of tome in English grammar. I am sure you know it. Your sentence: 4) My doctor told me that I have to exercise more, and that I don't have time. When we convert Direct speech into Reported speech, the verbs must be backshifted one tense back, mustn't they? My sentence: My doctor told me that I had to exercise more, and that I didn't have to smoke. What's your take on that? I appreciate it. Thumbs up! You are our Pride and Joy!
    Cheers!

    • @AccurateEnglish
      @AccurateEnglish  2 роки тому

      I understand your question. In indirect speech we generally back shift the tense, but not always. If what is said is still true at the time of reporting then we can retain the tense. So if I still have to exercise, (from my example about the doctor's advice) then we don't back shift the tense. Here are two sample sentences: "He told me that he spoke French at the meeting." (the meeting happened in the past) versus: "He told me that he speaks French." (It's a fact that is still true today.) When teaching the back shifting rule in reported speech, English teachers often omit this second point.

    Recently, from your book I've learned about American "u" pronunciation vs British "yu". It's helped me in understanding pleasure song, catching American accent forming and categorize American/British pronunciation differences.
    Reading Oscar Wilde's tail diglott, I found question form grammar structure you were talking about in video with Samantha Grant. Though I follow Dr Berg`s pieces of advice and keep keto diet, rewatching this video memorizes me inverted word order features.
