🦃 Happy Thanksgiving 🍁! Questions of the Day: 1) What is something that you are thankful for? 2) Do you have any holidays or celebrations in your country similar to Thanksgiving?
Hello teacher Jen.... What a nice tradition, enjoy your thanksgiving day, all the food you showed looked delicious.( I think that hit the spot). P.S. have a Nice one.
1) I am thankful because I have amazing friends. 2) In my country, the Dominican Republic, we have a similar holiday, it calls Noche Buena (The Good Nigth), we celebrate it on Christmas Eve, but is not a statutory holiday, we must work (but in many businesses you can work less ours this day), we spend this night with relatives. The main dishes are baked chicken (or turkey) and baked pork, "Christmas" rice, Russian salad (made mainly of potatoes), plantain cake (is salty), a lot of fruits from the season (apples, pears...), for the dessert we eat Danish biscuits and chocolate.
Hi Maireny 🤩 Thanks for sharing about Noche Buena ✨ It is my first time to learn about this celebration and the dishes that you mentioned sound quite tasty. I wonder what Christmas rice is? On Christmas Day do you have another feast as well?😎
Jen is my favourite English teacher. I have been watched lot of English video in youtube but no one like her. Her English pronunciation is crystal clear.I really enjoy her lesson .
Thank you so much for your kind words 😃. I am really happy to hear that you find my English lessons so helpful ☺️. Thank you for studying English with me 😊. I wish you all the best ✨.
Jen Here in the U.S. 🇺🇸 we share similar things as Canada. - I’m thankful for my health and my family. We like turkey 🦃also and we like stuffing. I like mash potatoes with gravy and veggies and other favorite items. We eat all types of pies. My fave is pumpkin with whipped cream or ice cream. Sometimes apple or peach. I’m hungry now 😀 Ty for sharing.
Hi Jane 😎. Thanks for watching and for your comment✨. It is great to hear what you're thankful for and also to read about all the similarities in delicious foods for Thanksgiving 🥧. Happy Canadian Thanksgiving 🇨🇦🦃.
Hi, Jen! I’m always grateful to colleagues and business partners to give me many opportunities to improve myself. of course also family and friends of mine. As you know, In Japan, we don’t have the thanksgiving day to celebrate in exactly same way especially at the urban area. However I think New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day are very similar to that to feel gratitude to everything around us, in my opinion. Happy thanksgiving day!
Those are excellent things to be thankful for 🤗💕 Thanks for the well wishes and for sharing your opinion about how New Years in Japan is similar to Thanksgiving. In addition to feeling gratitude, it's also interesting because Thanksgiving dinner is a big feast, and when I read your comment I remembered feasting on traditional Japanese New Years foods (おせち料理 ) at my friend's house in Japan to celebrate the new year. ⛩
Thank you so much for this explication, I’m Mexican and do home schooling with my son with autism, and he put all attention to you and listen everything 🙏🏼🙏🏼🇨🇦🇨🇦
Hi Rocio 😁. Sorry, I just saw this comment now😅. Thanks for watching and for your nice comment ☺️. I am so happy to hear that your son enjoyed watching this Thanksgiving lesson 🤗. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🇨🇦.
Hi Catherine ✨. Thanks for watching and for your kind words about this Thanksgiving lesson 🍁 ☺️. I hope your students will enjoy it ✨🤗. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃.
Happy thanksgiving , Jen . as a chinese , i have the same feeling as you , at first , chinese people have the very similar festival as the west , we call it the mid- autumn festival . we celebrate it because of harvesting crops that can guarantee us to have things to eat for the next year. Second this harvest is not easy to do , so we should be thankful those who helped us . of course , I think i should thank our parents for our growing up, so chinese people have the similar thoughts that we should go home to stay with our family ,althought the traffic is very heavy.
I'm a brit and we don't celebrate thanksgiving at all here in Europe but we know of it and oddly enough have black Friday but that's following the American one and not the Canadian one. I would like to attend a thanksgiving, just to experience it, maybe one day, if we're ever allowed to travel again lol. Oh and BTW, I noticed you said yams when showing sweet potatoes, is this common? I have eaten yams and they're nothing like a sweet potato, it's basically a ginormous potato that looks like a tree trunk, it is not a potato but similar, cassava tastes a bit like a potato too but obviously they're all different, I was just curious.
Hi 😁. I am so sorry for my late response, but I just noticed your comment now since it is Thanksgiving weekend and I happened to check this video. I hope you'll get a chance to try a Thanksgiving meal sometime. ✨ As for your question about yams vs sweet potatoes... in Canada they are the exact same thing, just with two different names 😅. After reading what you wrote though, I looked it up because I thought that maybe I've just been mistaken my whole life in thinking so. According to several websites, sweet potatoes are constantly erroneously labelled as yams in Canada 🇨🇦 😆.
@@JeNsJyugyou thank you and happy thanksgiving ☺️ the yams thing is common, in North America anyway or what I see on TV at least. Whatever delicious treats you will have this weekend, enjoy and all the best. Greetings from London, England. 💛💜💚
Hi! Jen! Finally, I was able to write a comment!!!😭💡Second question... I mean "じゅうごや(おつきみ)" in Japan. At that time , we don't tell about grateful to family and anything...But we are grateful to crops. "Jugoya" is almost first week of August. It day is almost Full moon or big moon. And then we pray for a good harvest. We offer seasonal food, Japanese pampas grass, dumpings and stemed buns to the moon. And we pray to the moon. After that, It doesn't matter we eat that seasonal foods , dumpings and steamed buns. By the way In Japan, the shadow on the moon surface looks like 2 rabbits are making mochi!🐇🌕
Hello Yuuka 🌸 It is nice to hear from you.☺️ Thanks for sharing about Jugoya! 🐇 Although I lived in Japan for 4 years, I don't think I ever celebrated Jugoya. I only remember making and eating mochi at New Years. 😋 It's interesting about the moon. In Canada when there is a full moon, we say that the shadows on the moon look like a man's face, and we even have this idea of The Man in the Moon. 🌝
Interesting. Very informative and good to learn about other cultural observances. 👍 I am thankful for my health and for the knowledge of the worldwide web. Also for your educational video.
Wow wow wow wow. How wonderful, stunning and spectacular is the story of Canadian Thanksgiving where Sir. Martin frobisher has landed into Canada particularly in Nunavut for the first time ever. I think it was exquisantly beautiful that jeurney they sailed in the ocean, though all risks they definitely faced. Wow in 1578 AD everything was still quite quiet and how beautiful is the feeling anybody can have when land in an area for the first time ever. Really how lucky were they. Anyway with regards to our similar Thanksgiving in egypt were only back in the days in the past in the first century AD where the ancient egyptians had to celebrate two times a year once for agriculture, weather and fruits, and once for the river flooding. We still celebrate these two feasts and give thanks to God in the church while praising to Lord 🙏 for all of those givings. And personally I'm thankful/grateful and feel thankfulness/gratitude towards god for everything I have in my life specially for still having a job during this circumstances we have nowadays. Last but not least I wish you a very happy and wonderful Canadian Thanksgiving. God bless you. God bless Canada.
Thanks for your lovely comment, Rafiq 🤗 It was interesting to learn about Egyptian celebrations that are similar to Thanksgiving. 💐 Also, continuing to have a job during these unprecedented times is definitely something to be thankful for 👍🏻
Jen, I'm wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving full of family and friends🍻 🥂🍁Sorry that I cannot find a turkey in Emoji. I very often have been thinking about what is something that I am so thankful for: I am very thankful for having been living in Canada for some time. I was gifted with more experience that gave me the chance thereafter, to find the doors open by getting better opportunities to find what I considered good jobs for me.😊 In Spain we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving as such. But it is an important holiday here also, October the 12. Is called “Día de la Hispanidad” (Hispanicity Day) or also “Día de la Raza” (Day of the Race). In some South American countries, I think they also observe it as “Columbus Day” This is the day that Christopher Columbus landed in the Americas on October 12, 1492.🚢 Have a good day.
Hi Santiago 🍁 Sorry for my late reply. It's been a week since you left this wonderful comment, but for some reason UA-cam only notified me about it now. Anyways, thanks for your thanksgiving wishes. I ate sooo much food, lol 🥧 🦃 Also, thanks for sharing about being thankful for your time in Canada and your success.💪 In addition, it was interesting for me to learn about 'Hispanicity Day'. I know that in the USA they celebrate Columbus Day, but in Canada we don't. How do you celebrate Day of the Race? 🛳
@@JeNsJyugyou OH, please, don ´t worry for that! Day of the Race or Hispanidad, is always celebrated on October 12 in the whole country. Normally a traditional military parade takes place, The National Holiday Day which includes units of the different armies (Air, Navy, Earth) and security forces, as the Civil Guard), but not this year due to the pandemic. 😣
Thanks for your comment, Carl ☺️ Actually, last year for Christmas I made a video about cooking verbs and briefly demonstrated how to prepare Christmas dinner, including roasting a turkey. You can check out that video here: ua-cam.com/video/6bf3WjPfno4/v-deo.html
would you please give us advise about becoming fluent in speaking english.cause we understand what we hear in english ,but when it comes to speaking our tongue stuck and we can't remember the words so easily and quickly
Thanks for your inquiry, Mnera🙂 First of all, I would advise people not to worry about being perfect while speaking English. The point of speaking is communication and as long as the listener can understand what you want to say, then you are successful, even if you've made slight errors in grammar or pronunciation. When speaking, if you forget a word that you want to use, try describing the word the best you can and often times the listener will be able to guess exactly what you're trying to say. Also, take your time. Speaking isn't a race and if what you want to say takes a few more secs or mins for you to articulate, the listener will usually be patient and try to understand. 🤗 Improving speaking is definitely a tough point for many people learning another language and it's perfectly natural to be better at listening than at speaking. Keep practicing English speaking and over time you will begin to see improvements! 😉 I have a few videos on my channel which I'd also like to recommend if you haven't already watched them. 🎯 8 tips to help you become more fluent in English: ua-cam.com/video/xpifJO8mxFE/v-deo.html 🎯 3 steps to improving English speaking: ua-cam.com/video/t3SSoQbleBI/v-deo.html 🎯 12 helpful expressions that you can use to buy time while speaking to think of an answer to a question. The expressions are great for interviews for things like IELTS speaking or job interviews, but can also be used in daily conversation: ua-cam.com/video/vqAU0I29ENI/v-deo.html I hope this helps 😎
Hi teacher ♥️ belated happy Thanksgiving 😉 . To answer your first question I would like to say that I'm so thankful and grateful of god who make me able to do the stuff which i want to. Furthermore , I'd like to thanks my dear ones and teachers to make my life more enjoyable and thrilling 😉♥️ . As per your second question , in my country , India , there is no such holiday 😐 .
I bet it was! :D I wish I could taste a piece of that! Here’s what, any vegetarian, no matter how hardcore they might be, would be glad to put their salad away for once and take a good bite! :D (Yeah, it’s that good!)
As a matter of fact, I am! Well, I’m not hardcore. I mean... I eat a lot of meat. But only for the taste. So, morally I win :D P.S. I love this Dylan Moran’s joke :)
1). I always thankful for giving me a great family that I love it. And at all things I've been conquering month to month, year to year. 2). In Brazil Thanksgiving has been created since 1949 by a law from Eurico Gaspar Dutra in government on time, and 1965 decret regulated to be occur in the same US day, November fourth Thursday. In reason we have like day before Black Friday and here is not holiday too, unfortunately.
Hi Fabricio ✨ Thanks for sharing about the things you're grateful for and about Thanksgiving in Brazil. Family is an excellent thing to be thankful for 💐
@@JeNsJyugyou Thank You Jen!! I'm hoping travel restrictions will be lifted at some point in the future. I live an hour from the border with Manitoba. 👍😊
Thanks for your inquiry, Jimmy. 😎 Due to COVID19 restrictions the Canadian government advised people not to travel to visit family and recommended celebrating Thanksgiving with only the members of your household. 🦃 Actually, I saw a news article that was encouraging people to buy turkey, as it seems less turkeys were purchased this year compared to before.
May I ask if you can help me understanding the meaning of “like” I am hearing a lot in daily conversations of a lot of people in Canada. I am hearing this word in almost every sentences people talking here.
Happy belated Thanksgiving 🦃. That is an excellent question! Like has three main meanings: One is to enjoy and prefer something (ex: I like Canada). Another is to say that something is similar to something else (ex: This turkey tastes like chicken). Like is also used to give examples of something (ex: I ate many traditional Thanksgiving foods like turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and squash). A fourth way that some people use 'like' is to replace the word 'said' (ex: I had Thanksgiving dinner with my brother and he was like 'I can't eat turkey anymore because I'm vegan'. So I was like, 'Well then you can't eat most of the other foods either because I made them with butter'.)😄 In addition to these four meanings, many young people use 'like' as a filler word. This means that while some young people are talking and trying to think about what to say next, rather than saying "Ummm" or "Hmm" they say, "Like" (ex: I like went to the like store and I like bought a turkey. I was like kinda surprised because like it was like really heavy.) I really dislike it when people use the word like in this way because I find it annoying 😅. Anyways, I hope that helps 🤗.
Thank you for your kind words, Samina 🇨🇦☺️. Based on your question, I would like to recommend two of my previous videos to you. 1) How to Improve English Speaking: ua-cam.com/video/t3SSoQbleBI/v-deo.html 2) How to Improve English Fluency: ua-cam.com/video/xpifJO8mxFE/v-deo.html I hope the advice in those two English lessons will help you. 🤗
1) I am thankful for my healthiness and my family specially my mother. 2) We have Ramadan in Iran, it is not exact same as Thanksgiving and it is not an Iranian celebration it is from Islamic culture, we have some special food for Ramadan, one of them is Haleem with Turkey meat.
Hi Morteza ☺️. Happy belated Canadian Thanksgiving 🇨🇦🦃. Thanks for sharing the things you are thankful for and about special food eaten for Ramadan. I hope you and your family continue to be safe and be in good health ✨.
Yes good evening, it's fine and at home so it's clean yes but I'm at the Gare de Lyon, I'm on guard. I don't know that you are where I'm talking and that's it. I wanted to ask no, I don't know what. That's it. Me, I wanted to ask or else I am at Gare de Lyon. Thanks
Hi Yoda ✨. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃. I hope everything worked out well for you at Lyon Station... I think your message might have been meant for someone else 😅.
1.I'm really thankful for my life to my creator Almighty Allah. 2. There is no thanksgiving culture in my country Bangladesh although a celebration was observed in rural area for new Crops ( paddy) which is in November Called "Nobanno uthsbo" that's mean new crops celebration in English. Now a day people dont wish to celebrate this.
You Cannot PUSH Something Into a Space Until the Space becomes Completely FULL. I Beg to Disagree with you on that because I have Tried that Many Times Before and it have Never Worked. Only Sometimes it has Worked. Other Times No Way. Um Um.❎
🦃 Happy Thanksgiving 🍁!
Questions of the Day: 1) What is something that you are thankful for? 2) Do you have any holidays or celebrations in your country similar to Thanksgiving?

Happy Thanksgiving, Jojo 🦃 🍁 🤗
Will this year economy in Canada super great as last year for buying huge amount of turkey with stuffings as for cerebration?
Thanks for your inquiry, Jimmy. 😎 Due to COVID19 restrictions the Canadian government advised people not to travel to visit family and recommended celebrating Thanksgiving with only the members of your household. 🦃 Actually, I saw a news article that was encouraging people to buy turkey, as it seems less turkeys were purchased this year compared to before.
May I ask if you can help me understanding the meaning of “like” I am hearing a lot in daily conversations of a lot of people in Canada. I am hearing this word in almost every sentences people talking here.
Happy belated Thanksgiving 🦃. That is an excellent question! Like has three main meanings:
One is to enjoy and prefer something (ex: I like Canada).
Another is to say that something is similar to something else (ex: This turkey tastes like chicken).
Like is also used to give examples of something (ex: I ate many traditional Thanksgiving foods like turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and squash).
A fourth way that some people use 'like' is to replace the word 'said' (ex: I had Thanksgiving dinner with my brother and he was like 'I can't eat turkey anymore because I'm vegan'. So I was like, 'Well then you can't eat most of the other foods either because I made them with butter'.)😄
In addition to these four meanings, many young people use 'like' as a filler word. This means that while some young people are talking and trying to think about what to say next, rather than saying "Ummm" or "Hmm" they say, "Like" (ex: I like went to the like store and I like bought a turkey. I was like kinda surprised because like it was like really heavy.) I really dislike it when people use the word like in this way because I find it annoying 😅.
Anyways, I hope that helps 🤗.

You Cannot PUSH Something Into a Space Until the Space becomes Completely FULL. I Beg to Disagree with you on that because I have Tried that Many Times Before and it have Never Worked. Only Sometimes it has Worked. Other Times No Way. Um Um.❎
Still great Jen!
