+englishwithlucy *Don't forget **_would,_** **_shall_** and **_should_** when discussing the future tenses.*
Thanks For your lovely lesson today. I Do Enjoy it.
Good point@@BCSchmerker ! How about a video on modals soon? I fancy revamping my older version now that I have these awesome video editors!
Awesome 👍🏼❤
Should we wait for a video about your knot or not? ;))
Lucy's pronunciation is the clearest I've ever heard. I wish everybody spoke like her.
it's very clear to me too, and really I appreciate her.
Yes, her tongue is not stuck pressing the R key 😅 she have a fluid transition between consonants just like Latin based language speaker's
As an Englishman, I love watching your videos...the clarity you provide gives me an appreciation of how well my foreign colleagues around the world speak English.
The brits, Australians, Irish, Scottish, Americans, Canadians must be proud that their language has become the most important one globally. I wish I was fluent in English😢
You took the words out of my mouth!
I am a Bangladeshi. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
She's British, so she's not your foreign colleague as you said you're an Englishman !😁
@@torkzilla3543 Jolly good.
I stumbled across a fantastic resource that significantly improved my understanding of forming future tenses in English. As a visual learner, I appreciate your clear and straightforward instructions, including numerous examples to illustrate each point. The combination of lecture-style teaching and practical exercises helped me to consolidate the lesson and boosted my confidence in my understanding of the tenses. I heartily recommend this resource. Thank you, Lucy for creating such an informative and engaging tutorial!
Due to your videos I have passed my second semester of graduation in mass communication with A grade and 70% marks. U r an incredible teacher.

Small hint - "thanks to" not "due" in this case. Congrats;-)
"u r"? Really?
U r ? 70% seems right.
Interesting. I'm a native English speaker, and I had no idea our future tense was so complicated. It got my brain tired, but it seems so easy when we do it! Probably because we don't learn them as tenses when we're kids or study them as separate beings. I guess there is some advantage to having your native language be a confusing one, so you don't suffer in learning it. I like how you give the feeling behind each example, and why you might use one phrase, but not another.
How anyone can learn English as an adult amazes me
Our language is simple compared to most others, sadly. I'm currently learning Hungarian. :)
This video is a game-changer! Challenging common misconceptions about future tenses in English, it provides an eye-opening grammar lesson. The approach to real-life language use is invaluable. Thanks for clarifying and making grammar more accessible! 📚🗣🚀
I'm not really doing any tests or specifically trying to improve my English, but I do like to see your videos because I can't see one of them without smiling... Thank you for that, Lucy 😘
Having a Mother tongue(Romanian) with a very definite grammar structure is very hard not to think of "future" as a tense. When you have a structured grammar you always long to look for the analogue structure in the language you're trying to learn 😊
Future *is* a tense. English using extra particles to describe future doesn't change the fact.
According to this _technical non-existing future tense_ , tenses don't exist in Chinese at all. But they do.
@@MaGaOI'd rather say English doesn't have a _synthetic_ future tense, but it does have analytic ones.
@@MaGaO Chinese has a future aspect, all languages have aspect
@@erkinalp
Never said otherwise.
Same in Portuguese 😁
Thank you, Lucy!
It's the best way to make people understand English grammar. Watching your videos is a pleasure.
I'm a visual learner so it makes even more sense to see the future tense being used opposed to the other ways to learn. It's a lot easier to understand why you use it. I like the creativity of the language the way you teach it.
A really interesting video as usual. The insert about the weather is also very organic and funny. Thank you so much!
I just want to emphasize the quality of your videos. It's truly a pleasure from the technical point of view. Thanks!
English is not my first language, but I've learned it organically (games, music, TV shows, etc.), so I wasn't aware of all the rules you mentioned in the video. Still, I followed them naturally because they seemed "obvious" (for no reason). These types of instructional videos only affirm my conviction that English is a complex language to study but an easy language to learn. Complex due to the multitudes of rules and exceptions to those rules, and easy because the amount of content in English is simply endless, so you can completely immerse yourself in the language and force your brain to understand it naturally as if you were a native speaker.
Always a pleasure listening to you, Lucy! Crystal clear explanations sometimes not so obvious even for a person having tons of grammar books (like me :-))
Thank you so much for posting this. It helps a lot ❤😊
I've been trying to teach this for more than twenty years. Your video is so succinct and well explained. I wish I could have shown this to my students years ago. Brilliant and thank you.
Also, I do wish I had a bun.
Just before watching this video, I had just finished watching a video on "creaky voice" or "voice fry" and it was all I could, mostly, concentrate on while you spoke. It was a good explanation on "future tense". I am sure it will help some people with their grammar.
With my math/logic problems, I gave up on learning the structure of grammar long ago. I still sometimes stumble. But, because I was a prolific reader, I learned the proper way to phrase my writing and speaking (most of the time). I enjoy Lucy's videos. 😊.
Great lessons with explanation in clarity! I do not know there is a use of future perfect continuous tense til NOW. Thanks! 😃😀
Explained in the most effective way possible, thanks! I'll use it in my lessons. And please let's call it future tense!!
Lucy, your idea of looking back from the future worked well for me. And a demonstration of your fancy knot was a bonus.))) I have finally got the core of the Future Perfect tense. Thank you!
Absolutely the best grammatical, tense explanation I've ever heard regarding the future in English. I wonder if there is such an explanation for other languages such as Italian and Portuguese.
I just love watching your videos So informative and funny too Thanks for being you Lucy ! 👏👏👏
It's been a while since I've watched any of your videos. I was pleasantly surprised by how much more relaxed and charismatic you've become. Also for the editing
This is a really amusing and interesting video. You do so well in these lessons. Thank you.
You’re great Lucy, thanks so much for your help! ❤
Thank you, Lucy! I'm Brazilian and I love your classes 🩷
One of the best grammar video tutorials I've seen. everything is perfect in it - the composition, the rhythm, the content and, of course, the actor. Thank You ( RU, Samara)
Better search US En channels though. British English is irrelevant in Russia imo
I'm so glad there is no future tense in English. I will become very excited going forward about that fact.
Thank you for the tips!It really helped me in an essay..❤
Loved the lesson 💕🧡 Thanks !!!
I don’t know how I’d ever get a firm grasp of English without you
Wow! This lesson is amazing, well explained and I must say perfect for us. Finally I understood everything. Thank you so much
your voice now constantly sounds in my head when I think about the correct pronunciation! your accent is amazing, the best I've ever heard😘
bizum atakabiji
Thank you,very helpful. Great video as always.
Excellent session as usual. Thank you.!
Your teaching method is fantastic ❤
A very nice and comprehensive overview of the "future" in English.
Reminds me of the overview in today's text books in Bavarian "Gymnasium".
But at the end of those grammar units you can read that the differences between these "variants" aren't that important any more today because most native speakers don't follow the rules anyway ...
Just watch any modern film or tv show, especially the difference between will future simple and going-to has mostly disappeared.
Her pronunciation is actually intriguing, so I really appreciate her hard work.
Nice basic technic for learning English. Thank you teacher lucy.
Love this video. Very clear explanation. I often tell my students there's no such thing as 'future' tense and it's a huge paradigm shift for them! Minds blown indeed! We also need to explain there aren't three conditionals and reported speech one tense back rule is nonsense
I've just found this channel and I already love you
Thank you Lucy for another good lesson! Hugs from Brazil
That's awesome, keep up
Lucy!
Thanks a lot for a perfect explanation.🙂
It's beatifull, useful and nice. I knew about the future tense(s) but I didn't know it so well explained! Maybe someday YOU WILL become the most popular teacher ever.
Thank you Lucy for your lesson❤❤
2:42 - thank you very much, that is so nice of you
I think I can speak for all of us, it's abundantly clear that the future is not perfect, so the masters got it right.
But yours is really an amazing video! Cheers for it!
You made this so easy to understand,it just solved ALL my troubles to understand how to build sentences with the correct tenses, greetings from Brazil!
Thanks for the video, this give me more vocabulary.
great discovery. thank you for sharing .... and for funny and positive and simple way of presentation
Thank you! Your explanation is excellent! 😀
I learned a lot from this video. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks a lot for every information!❤❤❤
Interesting approach. I think it's this a big advantage about English and German. Not sure about other Germanic languages. "Real" future tense in Romance languages is always a pain, specially if you're not used to it.
I love your videos. It’s such a joy to listen to you. I learn so much. Love your little jokes . Keep it up 👍.
You give me butterflies in my stomach whenever I approach this learning garden❤❤❤
🤣 this is awesome!!! Justo estamos con el Future Tense, Will and Going to. I wonder what my teacher would say about that 🤭...Thank you ever so much Lucy!!
I’ve found it very useful. Thanks for the video 👍🏻
Thank you very much, really interesting and useful lesson.😀
Spellbinding lesson! Thank you so much.
Fantastic, thank you so much ❤
I'm so good with your content, thank you ❤
I love your joy and smile when you talk about English.
Hello capcicum teacher ....U r doing a great job...i have learned a lot of things whenever i attend ur class...thank you❤
I just love watching your videos! Thanks❤
I love this! Thanks, Lucy.
Simple and straightforward.
you look sooo good and your lesson is soo entertaining and helpful!!!
Just arrived here, lovely classes, a new follower from Brazil, lots to study and improve my English, thanks 😂😂❤
Outstanding! Thank you!!!
I’m a native English speaker and I can’t believe I never realized we don’t have a future tense in English!😂 Thank you for a fun and very informative video.
Thanks for the advice/knowledge and being such a gorgeous presenter.
Awesome lessons! And welcome to Croatia 🤗
It's a great video. I will recommend it to all my students.
❤ amazing !!! Great help to understand English !!!
your teaching style is awesome
Future perfect simple: "it's like we walk into the future and then turn around and look back." I love this description.
Thanks for a reminder on Future sentence structures. Plus, I had two useful commercials before your video, Great !!!!
This video is a gem. Nice decision on breaking the rules.
I have never had such a beautiful teacher.
Fully agree. It was a great decision not to use the future tense in English; otherwise, the size of the English dictionary would be much larger because there would be many irregular verbs for the future tense also, and we would have to remember them! Thanks to the modal verb 'will'!
I'm 40 years old, half Dutch and half English growing up in both countries missing a lot of grammar and being told that sometimes I don't make much sense. Of all these years on UA-cam (17) I never thought to find a channel like this! Finally, I can make more sense haha. Thanks for sharing, a lot for me to catch up on
Good luck Lucy really I like your way of teaching ❤
Wow well tutorial step by step informative video ❤
It's a special treat to hear you speak
OK Lucy. I love these videos. I've finally subscribed.
Dear Lucy I live in Croatia, so I liked your plan for spending summer on a yacht in my country!😉 Great lesson! Thnx
I agree with everything you've explained here. I found the video pretty complete.
Some linguists talk about the tenses being "past" and "non-past" (which would include the present and the future). In any case, the most common use of the word "tense" is the one you've mentioned and that's actually the meaning which appears in dictionaries. The distinction between the two different meanings of "tense" makes sense in the context of theoretical linguistics, but it may be a bit obscure or even useless in applied linguistics, as English teaching.
I fully agree. That's the way it's used in several other languages as well. We construct the future tenses in very similar ways in Swedish.
Wow, you’ve worded this so well! Thank you 🙏🏻 I could have used your comment when I was putting together the script for this video 😂❤️
I definitely agree it’s better to teach others in simple way. But at the same time teachers should be aware of this in case of some curious student who likes asking questions😮 thanks for video.
Amazing summary. Tnx!!!!❤❤❤
Hello Lucy!
I'm very excited to watch your online videos about how can we use the future tense without the modal verb will. Yeah, that's right, I have taught my students the same. But, what about the use of shall?
In obselescently posh RP English, 1st person singular and plural: I shall, we shall (not I will, we will which just about everyone else uses). In posh RP English 'shall is also used to indicate compulsion. British judges used to condemn prisoners to death with these words: "You shall be hanged by the neck until dead".
I'm watching from Ethiopia.... thanks Lucy
My best English teacher 📚 in the globe 🌍 I love you from South Africa 🇿🇦
❤❤ I am so Lucy because I have found a good teacher like her for learning English ❤❤
I'm from sri lanka. Your videos extremely useful to me and now I can speak a bit English with my friends ❤❤🥰❤❤
Lucy is the best teacher 🥰🥰❤❤❤
Hi dear Lucy, thank you very much for this lesson 😘💕
Weather.. 😅😅😅
As for future, it's ok to me to call them tenses, because you do make the combination with aspects, so it makes sense to me. In Portuguese we have what we call synthetic and analytic tenses, the first being expressed in endings (morphologically) and the second with auxiliary verbs (syntactically). To me that's what happens in English, your language developed to have an analytical future..
Anyway. Thanks for the video! 😉
WOW 😳
That's really new (to me 😅)
Thank You, Lucy 🙏🏼
