BRILLANT ! I did love your videos. On the other hand I have a question about the article " the" when we refer to breakfast / lunch / dinner isn't necessary to add " the" or we have to do it For example : I'll chat to my friends during ( the ) lunch / I'm going to mee with my cousin Gina before ( the) lunch . When's ( the ) dinner ready ? And please another question what's the difference between MAY & MIGHT I'm a bit confused. Thanks for your time teacher.
Generally, we don’t use THE with meals. If we talk about meals as an event, or party, then we do use the THE. I have empanadas for lunch (meal) How was the dinner? (Maybe it was a formal event) May and might are pretty much exactly the same. Though technically, may is a little bit stronger (but people use them interchangeably) Check out this video. It may help explain m.ua-cam.com/video/vmOS1iT095U/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
@@EnglishpronunciationwithTom Hi teacher ! Good evening ! Thank you so much. Got it. Tomorrow I'll watch the video in order to understand in the right way and then be capable of explaining to my students. You're THE BEST 😁
Good question. It could be either. Some people elide the /d/ so it sounds like 'aniz'. Some people link the /d/ consonant to the /i/. Consonant to vowel linking ua-cam.com/video/8ydC3379SUg/v-deo.html
Yeah, with this example the /d/ is sometimes elided and sometimes assimilation happens. So yes, depending on the speaker it can sound like ‘stand back, or ‘standack’, or ‘stanback’

Thanks so much. I’ve had a long break but I should really make some more.

Nice video!
Thanks Miguel. I'm glad you like it.
Why is it "aniz" not "andiz"?

Stand back = staMbak. No?
