Hi Lucy. I'm a native English-speaking American. I technically missed only one question, but on several of the questions in which both answers were correct, not surprisingly I chose the one most commonly used in The USA. Great quiz! Thank you!
I had them all correct, but I have to admit that I paused the video a little longer than five seconds in two questions. Thank you for sharing these activities. Greetings from Morelia México
Hi, I'm an Aussie and I love good grammar spoken correctly. I answered all ten of your questions. Some of your answers I did not agree with but then I am 91 years old and was taught grammar as it was considered correct in those days. Unfortunately not everyone uses grammar as it should be used..
The meaning of words has changed over those years to match the agenda of the woke, wako, liberal, community organizers. If you want to hear "correct English" you first have to understand the "significance of time".
Monsieur, my first grammar book was Wren & Martin - definitely the "old style grammar". Last decade, I referred to Oxford Modern English grammar. Hardly did I find any difference!
@@PS_Tube You made a mistake with your very word. "Monsieur" is masculine gender. "Rae" is feminine gender. Sorry, mate your presumption was incorrect. I'm a girl.
I got 9/10 correct. Very tricky subject with so many pet peeves for me. I truly hate when people mash probably and possibly together. Please, make a video about this so everyone understands the use of these two words. Thank you for educating the masses better than most teachers today!
Which one did you not get? I also got 9/10 and just feel curious if it's the same one or a different one? For me it was the one about the use of "will" as an indicator if an annoying habit, I thought "has to" would be there, but it's not really one word, so, not the answer that was expected. "Will" was an option that has been wiped out of my memory at some point 😅
I was confused by this too, as I forgot it was about habit. Even so, I had it stuck in my head that it should simply be ‘plays’ . . . music all night . . .
Thank you Lucy for your lovely Grammar Rules questions. I got 7 out of 10. Lucy, I really love to answer your questions and do tests you give me. Nobody will be a best English teacher as you.
That was very interesting. Thank you, Lucy. I'm an old man now . When we were taught grammar in the 50s and 60s, the rules were more rigid, so it's fascinating to see how what was "wrong" then has crept into general speech.
Thanks Lucy I teach English in SEAsia and this has clarified a few things for me: that I have been mixing up uncountable and collective nouns (crowd, staff) and a few more points about divergence between US and British English.
76 year old here who left school at 15 without any certificates of education. I had a successful sales career and got all 10 right. At least I was paying attention whilst at school!
I got them all correct, which (as a proofreader) I found reassuring. I'm an American who has lived in the UK since the age of four; I was somewhat surprised to see that I had chosen the US alternative in each case.
9/10. I had never heard of using “will” to signify something done habitually. “My neighbour habitually plays music … “ sounds better - to my mind, at least - and is, arguably, a clearer way to express the concept described. However, I accept what you say; it makes reasonable sense, even if it’s not how I’d phrase the statement.
It's a particularly British expression. One example that comes to mind is from an old Doctor Who episode: (Peevishly) "Well if you WILL lead such a rackety life..." Notice the conditional voice. It's not strictly necessary for this construction, but I think it hints at how it may have come into practice. It implies a consequence to the action, and thereby opens the door to a moral judgment about the action itself.
8 out of 10! Not a native speaker, learnt english by myself for years. Of course I studied some grammar but I forgot most of it and usually choose what word to use by how it sounds to me lol. it's been years and i still do enjoy this channel and still am learning new stuff :) thank you Lucy
I majored in English, and yet find Lucy's videos exceptional. My interpreting teacher would've said that "Who does this jacket belong to?" is incorrect, as the accusative is always whom. So he would shout if we said "Who did you see?" in place of "Whom did you see?" And...I say that to regular people around sometimes, and I'm treated as if I were an alien :P
@@B-MeisterNo one sane would listen to any of the eructations coming out of his mouth. Even his own constituency had enough of him, finally, and booted him out. The rest of us rejoiced.
"Whom does this jacket belong to" is interesting, because the same sort of VERY precise grammarians who would insist on 'whom' will also tell you that no sentence should end with a preposition or conjunction. They would all say "To whom..." "Whom did you see?" therefore works better, and would be acceptable to the pedant; but still sounds awkward.
Thank you Lucy, for another interesting lesson of English. Grammar! I knew that would end with me having a not too bad intuiton for choosing the right missing words and correct sentences, without being able to explain the underlying rules. I plain forgot most of them... Actually, I do not even remember a lot of grammar rules of my native language. Does anyone really? My German is still good, I feel the grammar 😘
German is MY birth-language, but I came to Canada at the age of 6 and so lost much of it in the process of learning over the years English, followed by French, Latin, Greek, and Hebrew, and relearning German. I am sure that contemporary German has softened many of the hard-rules it once contained, just as English has softened its rules, even though we retain a few die-hides who declaim that "Poor Grammar is something up with which I will not put!"
Thank you Lucy, that was engaging !! I’m Italian and I had 8/10 points . The first and the ninth questions were tricky to me but it means that I can only improve myself!
Hello. I'm French and I want to increase my English-speaking. I got a score of 4, so I think I will have a big interest by subscribing to this channel. 😅
I enjoyed your video. I have helped foreign students with their English via online language apps. I learned more grammar rules correcting their grammar than when I was in school! LOL!! ( I love to hear you talk!!! I am an American from the deep south.)
The funny this is that I got 9/10, and I would never be able to explain why it would be right or wrong , and I'm not a native English speaker. But uses English every single day at work. Thanks Lucy, it was fun
I'm grateful for your use of grammatical terms when reviewing the questions. While it's true that people pick up their fitst language unconsciously, and rote practice has an important place in how we become comfortable with a new language, it's illuminating and fun to be able to understand the syntax of a language in a more abstract form. How else could we hope to explain the differences between: Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
9. I I loved this video, especially as you pointed out the differences between American and English grammar. As an American I no longer place a comma before "and" when I write a series, but it took several years before I was able to do so.
Thank you teacher, I've been learning a long time but I'm still having some difficulty with grammar English. I feel that I m getting better as well.❤Hugs.
Great show. I’m no grammar vocabulary expert, but one thing that truly saddens me is the near disappearance of the word “presently.” It found it to be a diplomatic way of saying “I already told you it was coming, now stop pestering me.” Now people use it as a posh way of saying “currently.” By the way, whatever color your sweater (jumper?) is definitely suits you.
I got 10. But I’m a 60 year old Australian. We actually got taught properly when I went to school. Not the ridiculous hodgepodge of idiocy that’s called an education now.
@@Samphirebythesea Except I'm afraid it isn't. Colloquial, yes; informal, yes. Grammatical? Yes. One of the many many meanings of "to get" is "to become".
I got 9/10, the use of "will" in that context was news to me. I did come up with three alternatives, but they usually involved two words. To me, that sentence sounded like someone really complaining about the neighbours habit. :) Well, after 10 years of studying English at school (2nd language) and then living down under for 17 years, I can still learn new things.
Thanks for doing this Lucy. knowing English in this level is a great privilege and thank you for sharing it with the others. I always learn some small things from you! :) Thanks so much!😊
@@iceice6354 Thank you for the information. However, my comment was focused on requesting more advanced grammar content from Ms. Lucy. Her marital status is not relevant to my request. I'm looking forward to learning more about topics like inversion, mixed conditionals, and cleft sentences.
I loved your comment at the beginning of the video. Most of my coworkers would run their repirts by me before handing them in. English is my second language and they all knew my English was better than theirs.,
I asked to be taught English Grammar as a subject in high school but was told it was too complex and not offered. I believe my english expression is reasonably good but only because of my parents, my love of reading and my further education. I am not across things such as 'a negative adverbial' etc. I wish I were so I am going to follow this page.
Two cool takes here (swedish guy): 8: (My neighbour WILL play)... this was new to me, but will definetly use this in the future - and only when very derogatory! 🙂The other take was 10: the oxford comma. I usually use this when I want to point out how STUPID the last option is... and from now on, if I'm getting corrected about misuse of comma, I can simply tell it's "oxford comma". Love your channel!
I never formally learned any of those. I keep being surprised that I get stuff right on instinct, not having a clue as to how the rule actually operates. I didn't guess number 8. But I got all the rest... It's amusing how confused I can get when I hear the explanation of something I just do naturally.
@@kahinaharrache5026 Same. But now I think that 'would' would refer to a past habit or a previous neighbour, whereas 'will' makes it a present, ongoing thing.
Could you answer a who/whom question for me? Which is correct?: “I don’t know whom was involved” or “I don’t know who was involved”. I say it’s the second because “who” is the subject of the clause, although I often see or hear “whom” in constructions such as this. I just now discovered your channel, and it’s delightful.
ma'am, I love your videos & I really appreciate how easily you educate us about the minute things. I learned from your videos and applied them to Gurully practice tests. My score has improved significantly, but yes this took time& now I feel confident about myself. Thank you and Gurully for boosting my confidence!
@@pokerformuppetsThe grammatically correct ”Thankfully we’ve moved on from that.” would improve the tone of your whole comment over “. But thankfully we’ve moved on from that.”, in my opinion anyway 😅
When learning English in school I hated grammar! I read a lot, and I thought my grammar was pretty good until I decided to learn Spanish! Because I read a lot my grammar is pretty good but learning another language really showed how bad my English grammar was in some of the more esoteric ways. Now I like it, and, I could say I almost enjoy it, but I'm never going to become an editor!
English is not my mother tongue. I scored 7 correct answers. Liked the quiz. Am not at all keen about the academic explanations. In fact, I never was able to memorise any of the rules. Got my English by reading books and journals, and yes, by speaking the language. Thank you for spurring my motivation to improve this language which I love.😊
I've now finished. 8/10. Yes, it's good, but I would have loved a 10 so much! I had forgotten the "will" use for habits. My only option was "does", which I know (I do know, hehe) is to stress the action, not to refer to it as a habit. I should've remembered that "would" is sooo frequent for past habits. Overall, I loved your test! Fun, creative, engaging and thrilling (for me, at least). And so informative and atuned to current trends and BE/AmE differences.
8. Nice with the small details you have to take into account. I feel I learned something. In the multiple choice questions I would go for the british english answer.
First of all Lucy you look amazing greetings from Karachi, Pakistan. I am your big fan since last few years have been seen your tutorials. Lots of love for you and your husband😊
Hi Lucy, very interesting and informative. I must comment on question three though....you have used a comma before a conjuction. I was always taught as a kid that this is a big 'no no'. I would also say that qu. 4 really depends on context and the collective noun in question Qu. 6 - always 'an' :) Qu. 7 - again, at school I was always taught not to end a sentence with a short word like 'to' - I realise that English is always evolving but, just because everyone would probably say the second sentence, doesn't make it correct - yet - in my mind :) Qu. 8 - ?? Qu. 10 - Oxford comma....No!! :):) Really enjoyed your presentation. Thanks
The 'habit' one completely got me...I thought of always, regularly, periodically, except the answer, 'will' !...I would instead rephrase the question as 'word that will predict the habit'
10 out of ten. I am grammatically lucky in this case. English is not my first language, as I grew up in working-class, rural Minnesota. Standard American English is my second language, which took me over twenty years of schooling to acquire. 😎
Did you really have to think about 'lie' and 'lay' , Lucy ? I don't think they sound tricky for you since you're a native English speaker so you're surely an expert in English grammar 👍😊 by the way, thanks for sharing this valuable knowledge ! ♥️🌹
Eight out of ten and a Welsh first language speaker. Didn’t get all of the double tick ones though but I did choose the most commonly used correct one of the pair.
I didn’t keep score, but some of the early questions I had to think about a little bit. A lot of my grammar I know intuitively, but not intellectually.
Ok! How did you find that? I loved making this quiz for you! Remember - *get your FREE PDF and exercise pack* _here_ 👉🏼ex.ewl.info/pdf156

7 good answers, I will redo it and try to be more focused, I might have lacked attention !
Thank you
Same here as I missed the first question.
English is not my mother tongue. I scored 7 correct answers. Liked the quiz. Am not at all keen about the academic explanations. In fact, I never was able to memorise any of the rules. Got my English by reading books and journals, and yes, by speaking the language. Thank you for spurring my motivation to improve this language which I love.😊
I got 9/10 correct. I made a mistake with question 8......
Thank you so much for all these videos ❤
I got 9/10 correct. Wow! Thank you, Lucy.
I've now finished. 8/10. Yes, it's good, but I would have loved a 10 so much! I had forgotten the "will" use for habits. My only option was "does", which I know (I do know, hehe) is to stress the action, not to refer to it as a habit. I should've remembered that "would" is sooo frequent for past habits.
Overall, I loved your test! Fun, creative, engaging and thrilling (for me, at least). And so informative and atuned to current trends and BE/AmE differences.
10 out of 10. So proud!
8. Nice with the small details you have to take into account. I feel I learned something. In the multiple choice questions I would go for the british english answer.
First of all Lucy you look amazing greetings from Karachi, Pakistan.
I am your big fan since last few years have been seen your tutorials.
Lots of love for you and your husband😊
Hi Lucy, very interesting and informative. I must comment on question three though....you have used a comma before a conjuction. I was always taught as a kid that this is a big 'no no'.
I would also say that qu. 4 really depends on context and the collective noun in question
Qu. 6 - always 'an' :)
Qu. 7 - again, at school I was always taught not to end a sentence with a short word like 'to' - I realise that English is always evolving but, just because everyone would probably say the second sentence, doesn't make it correct - yet - in my mind :)
Qu. 8 - ??
Qu. 10 - Oxford comma....No!! :):)
Really enjoyed your presentation.
Thanks
10!!!! I teach middle school English, though, so that might put me at a bit of an advantage 🤷 Great video!
I got 8 out of 10.
Question number 8 I answered wizh "regularily"...which is cheeky, but fulfills your description :)
Merry Christmas to you Lucy and Will and evryone attached to you and your channel!👌💕
The 'habit' one completely got me...I thought of always, regularly, periodically, except the answer, 'will' !...I would instead rephrase the question as 'word that will predict the habit'
I got 7 corrections. Thank you for preparing such a good collection of questions.
This is the best format 👍
Wow! 8 out of 10, not so bad as I expected.
Hi Lucy 👋! I'm Josh. Just love your British accent. I speak British as well! It is such a beautiful language
Hebrew is the most beautiful
Thank you, I have found that I learn more with you and I appreciate it.
10 out of ten. I am grammatically lucky in this case.
English is not my first language, as I grew up in working-class, rural Minnesota.
Standard American English is my second language, which took me over twenty years of schooling to acquire. 😎
I got a 6 out of ten, Much love from KENYA 🎉
Thank you Lucy 💕💕
Good one, without a doubt. Got 8 answers correct. Thank you!

Did you really have to think about 'lie' and 'lay' , Lucy ? I don't think they sound tricky for you since you're a native English speaker so you're surely an expert in English grammar 👍😊 by the way, thanks for sharing this valuable knowledge ! ♥️🌹
8 out of 10😊 would as a past habit is familiar but ...will😮.. now it s obvious as a present habit
Thanks a million for reminding❤❤

Eight out of ten and a Welsh first language speaker. Didn’t get all of the double tick ones though but I did choose the most commonly used correct one of the pair.
I didn’t keep score, but some of the early questions I had to think about a little bit. A lot of my grammar I know intuitively, but not intellectually.
