    I would prefer to read articles from different magazines with Gill. I am not a beginner and have made a significant progress since I started to learn English. Reading in English is one of my hobbies I really enjoy.

    Hello Gill, Happy New Year 2024! Thank you for this lesson. Ness is owrhaps one of the most used suffix I know. Until this lesson was heard, I didn't pay attention to this suffix. Now it is interesting to know how often we use it. Happiness, sadness, goodness - I could go on. The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but i have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep. Indeed, drousyness, sleepyness, wakefulness, alertness, attentiveness are key to good health and happiness. Joy be with you, dear Gill. We bathe in the brightness of the Gilli - ness in our virtual worldliness. 😊

    When I need some education as well as a mood booster,
    I always watch your videos!❤
    p.s I've alwayed had a problem with the word laziness.
    My parents always said I was lazy, when I was actually depressed!
    I'm sure there are lazy people too, but I often find that depression gets misstaken for laziness!

    Dear Ma'am Gill,
    This lesson on vocabulary of adding 'ness' to certain letters seem quite interesting !
    Here,i think,the word 'likeness' can be equated with the word ' resemblance' to show that something is almost the same with a little difference.
    Thanks to you with all my best wishes on this New Year 2024 !

    Hi Gill, shy doesn't change the "y" because it's a monosyllable or just that's it? Thank you :)

    I am not a native English speaker. But I’m not afraid to make and use words with affixes as long as they sound like English. Haha. I don’t care if it is in the dictionary or not (incidentally almost all would happen to be in the dictionary anyway). :)

    Hi Gill, I have a question. Why word "shy' not change letter 'y", but in the all same words letter "y" change to the letter "i" lazy -lazinees, happy - happinees ... ?

    • @nattybking
      @nattybking Місяць тому

      I assume it is dependent on the pronunciation of the 'y'. In the case of 'shy', the y is pronounced 'i' (eye) whereas happy is a long 'ee' sound.
      I love the English language, it is a riddle!
