What a beautiful lesson Brent!!!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us!!! I've been learning a lot with your videos, tks for being part of my English learning.
My pleasure! Thanks so much, Italo.
Hi brent, that’s So sad and emotional lesson especially when you were talking about the body of those poor soliders and were crying, it makes me So sad and and I had to pause the video then I tried to watch it again, Thank you So much for taking us to this special place, I Really appreciate it , take care .
Golsa, thanks so much for your comment. It was a tough one to film, but I wanted to show my true emotions. I feel the same about any soldier who died fighting in a war, even if it's my own country. It's the passion that I respect.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent that’s So Nice to share it with us Thanks again .
Hi Brent, It testifies that you have a very kind heart . You can feel the pain of others. This video really made me sad especially when you were talking about the recoverd body parts of the brave soldiers who sacrificed their lives in war for their country. Thank you Sir.
Thank you, Aziz. Yeah, that was hard to talk about, but I thought it had to be said. Thanks so much for watching.
Thank you Brent for this English lesson at the Arlington Cemetery. I agree that this a very special place.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks, Amina!
Silence and respect. Great lesson. Thanks Brent.
Thanks, Leo!
Amazing video. God save their souls.
Thank you Brent for this lesson and just want to give thanks to all those people who bought their lives to their country without hesitation 😔🪖
You're welcome, Julia, and I totally agree about all of those of have lost their lives fighting for their country.
A little culture and history is the icing on the cake. Much respect . You are so respectful and human.
I appreciate that, Samy. Thanks so much. I try.
Hello Brent ! A big thank you for this new lesson ! It was so interesting and moving....
And yes I would love to have this BOOK and discover Alex's adventures.
I love this kind of video, because we learn a lot with interesting topics. We have an American cemetery here since world war 2. (Not far from my house) Seeing all those white crosses and knowing they were so young, so far from their country, their family and friends... and just for us for our Liberty makes me always cry. They become our children too for ever because they came here for us. I think it's my duty to pray for them and never forget. It's for reasons like this and many others that French people and American people are friends for ever. 🇺🇸 Thank you once more !
So sad. And so true. The French and the Americans are really good friends. You are entered into the drawing.
Cool beans teacher Brent! I'm watching it now at work....thank you!
I hope your work day goes well, Athanasios.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent Everything is fine teacher...we don't have many reservations but that's ok!
Thank you for the rich information in this video.
I enjoyed watching that.
Brent, This video made me tears flow, lots of people died serving fr the country. It was a special experience watching this video. A permanent place of rest for all humans- the Graveyard/cemetery. Thanks Brent for the video.
Ashraf, thank you so much for the beautiful comment.
A special place and a special lesson. Great job. Thank you for sharing and for the new words and phrases.
My pleasure! Thanks for walking, Aleksey.
Thank you!
Right video. Being a member of a special search squad I pick dozens of unknown WW2 soldiers...Every year. They are always remembered, always in our hearts...
Oh, wow! Konstantin. Thank you for your work.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent And thank YOU for the right video!
Excellent video and good lesson. Thank you Mr Brent!
My pleasure! Thanks so much, AlsXZ.
I watched and feel impressed by this video Brent. I feel the same with all of my heart. There is no something honored for died your homeland on the world. I feel emotional for young bodies who lie down in that cemetery and died for his/her homeland all around the world. I have to tell that thx for showed to us this important and emotional area, and thx for that wonderful respect ceremony who did duty soldier...
Thank you so much, Semra. I'm glad you found it useful.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent Exactly I found it useful. I felt gone there with you even I watched to video. Arlington is a huge area with many buried young people who died for their homeland. Impressed... They sleep in a respectful silence...And your emotional behaves... I have no more words...
Great Video teacher Brant! One of the things I admire about you Americans is patriotism! This feeling is very beautiful!
Thank you! 😃Thanks for watching, Eduardo.
I could feel how emotional you were feeling during this videos it just show how empathic you are
Thanks, Emanoel. Great use of the word, empathic.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent I've learned by you, thanks
Thanks Brent for the valuable lesson..I saw you first time crying.
Yeah, that's true, English Lover. Hopefully, it will be the last, but you never know.
Your video reminds me of the following lyrics: “The land of the free and the home of the brave … “ Freedom is not free; someone has paid something priceless for it. America is a unique country that is worth being loved since it is the only country that is built on values instead of ethnicity. These values are Liberty, E Pluribus Unum, and In God We Trust. How precious they are. I won’t let leftists and communists destroy this beautiful land. Thank you, Brent, for letting us, English learners, have an opportunity to visit this special place for this special country on this planet.
Jack, thanks so much for those lyrics. I do think that any country has the potential to be built on values. Every country has its fair share of amazing people. The US doesn't always get it right. We've made mistakes in the past, but I do love my country.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent Actually, I come from a country which has been tortured by far leftists and communists for decades. I love America not because every American is great (of course not), but because of the American values - freedom of speech, religion, press, etc. When you say, "We've made mistakes in the past.", I guess you are saying "PART of we have made mistakes like enslaving people." Actually, half Americans didn't enslave people in the past, and when slavery was happening in America, it also was happening in other parts of the world, so we can't blame America alone for slavery just like leftists do. And you know what, what makes America so great is she is one of the first countries that abolished slavery. Leftists and communists tend to judge anything with an ideal, utopian set of moral standards, especially when they are judging America. They also tend to judge anyone or anything in the past with contemporary moral standards, which is not fair at all. God says, "Noah was a righteous man in his generation." (Genesis 6:9) Why didn't God just say, he is a righteous man? Because God has the greatest wisdom, knowing that Noah can only be judged by the moral standards of his own time, and if Noah was judged by that of later times, he would not be righteous any more.
I’ve been there in 1996.It was strong experience.Great video Brent!! Thanks
Oh, wow! Yeah, such a strong experience. So moving.
Thank you, great video, the cementry with the tombs of soldiers remind the cruelty of the war. In Poland we had to face with many such facts. In 1944 the German army was retreating. Within two days they realized the masacre in Warsaw in the district "Wola". 50 thousand people were shot, chlidren, men, pregnant women. So, in Poland the tomb of unknown soldier could be placed in each corner of the street. Have a nice day🙂.
There is no question that Poland has suffered much in its past. I have a great respect for the Polish people. Thanks, Luke!
I haven’t seen your sad face before. I’m overcome with emotions when I saw you’re talking about the soldier. Thank you so much Brent, you’re the best teacher ever! 🌸🌸🌸
Ah, Miho. Thank you so much. Yes, it was deeply moving to be there. I have a great deal of respect for any soldier who is willing to give their live for their country. I may not agree with why they are fighting, but to feel so passionately about a cause is something I feel should be respected.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent yes, all the soldiers that they fight for the country and lost their lives should be respected. So impressed to see the video about Arlington National cemetery.
Brent, this lesson made me emotional just like you!
It's was a great lesson. I learned a lot. In fact, I watched it twice. Thanks for your special work teaching us!
P.S.: If there's still time, I would like to have the book. It would be great to teach my nephew.
You are entered, Cida. Thanks for the sweet comment.
salute to heroes
For sure. 👍🏼
Great English lesson !!!
This is not only a English lesson but also history lesson. I’m so sorry you felt emotional while recording the lesson, anyway stay strong my friend 💪🏽.
Thank you, Mikael. I probably could have edited it out and said the words without the emotion, but I wanted to be as honest as possible. Thanks for watching, Mikael.
Respect your work 👍
Thank you so much 😀
Oh! Brent, I thought you are a tough 'Guy', jumping off of a bridge, sleeping overnight in a cemetery etc.. etc..but deep inside, you are a super soft human.
This place is quite peaceful and picturesque.
Visiting to these greatest departed personalities probably made your day. Right?
Thanks for making wonderful lessons for us with a lot of efforts.
Sherly, it's always a special, humbling experience to visit those hallowed grounds. I've been several time, and each time it's moving.
I think this was the most emotional video for you, very nice place and so symbolic 🙂 The place is huge and beautiful, I don't think you could spend the night there 🤔😋 Another fantastic video 🙌😎
No, Maria. I agree. They wouldn't let me spend the night there. 😴I think you're right. This one was pretty emotional. Thanks for the comment.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow! This is another best vdo from my teacher Brent in my mind after l watch this vdo in third time l will talk with you later because like now l have something to do first. Sorry and thanks in advance.
Thanks, Oddy. I hope whatever you had to do went well.
Sir how i do improve grammer portion have you any website
I appreciate so much your history lessons. Thank you for this emotional and interesting information. Maybe you''d like to make a video on the Sand Creek Massacre at any time? I've heard about it in a song of a famous Italian singer-songwriter, Fabrizio de Andrè (Fiume Sand Creek) I know you love Italian...
I do love Italian. You're right, Mariposa. That's a great idea. Believe it or not, I never heard about this in school. I will do a little research. Thank you.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent Great, I've provoked your curiosity, that was my intention. :-) Thank you very much. I always wonder how you manage to answer so many people who write comments. This is amazing.
I'd like to win the book, Brent♥️🇺🇲. Thanks so much!
You are entered, Cecilia.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent Thanks so much, Brent!
Thanks Brent . It was a sad lesson . You make me weep as well. Anyways , thanks for showing us some areas in the USA.
Alaa, it was so sad. So much suffering during war. Hopefully, there will be fewer wars in the future.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent I hope so Brent . Wars are destuctive .
I want the book
Brent shoulder heavy but you are sensitivity and the view to variety of same story. In the future nothing would happen, we hope so withim guy's town land.
You are so right. Hopefully, there will be fewer future wars.
I want the book!
Lucian, you are in. I will draw the name in a couple weeks.
without subtitle the sentence the world war one is very difficult for me to listen do you think so. Thank you so much for the video
Thanks for becoming a member. I will try to get subtitles on there. What language would you like the subtitles in?
I want this book please. Thanks.
You are entered, my friend.
That absolutely makes me feel emotional. For sure, I can feel the same way. You would have regretted seeing all the American soldiers' death around. Teacher, Do you mind if I'm curious when all those sacrificed soldiers died? Or you could tell like hundreds of years or thousands of years ago. It''s okay if you can't tell.
I think the older graves there are from about 1860 or so.
I am so sorry to see you so sad Brent and I understand your feelings. Here where I live there a lot of monuments and streets dedicated to the partisans who fought and died against Nazis and Fascists. In particular in Liguria there was a huge partisan movement which liberated Genoa before the allies but at the same time the partisans and the local people paid a high price (the Germans and the Italian fascists caused a lot of slaughters).
If you are interested I suggest you to read something about the "massacre of the Benedicta" (near Genoa), "massacre of Monte Sole" (Emilia Romagna near Bologna) or the "massacre of Santa Maria di Stazzema" (Tuscany).
Vesselin, thanks so much for the reading suggestions.
Brent, this is so valuable! Thanks for showing around and giving us some information on this hallowed ground. And I totally understand your emotions. I would most likely fail to keep it together at the place like this. This summer, we visited the hallowed ground in Volgograd called Mamayev Kurgan. There are also soldiers who guard near the eternal light no matter what.
You may take a look at the pictures if you'd like. And I'll also leave a link to the wiki because I think you like reading about history, War and so on.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mamayev_Kurgan
Thanks so much for the link. I will have a look.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent ☺️☺️☺️
Please correct me if I am wrong Brent, The USA soldiers fought shoulder to shoulder with The Turkish soldiers in the Korean War on the same side for a while... The world borrow respect to young bodies who died for their homeland, and peaceful life...Thx again for this wonderful video...
I think you're right, Semra. There were many countries fighting on each side during that war. I hope the world never experiences anything like that again.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent I hope too...
I like watched you walked on the dance road, let's do a little dance, hahaha. Just kidding. These steps made you did a little dance.😂
13:33

Monica, you were the winner of the book! Email me your mailing address here brent@americanenglishwiththisguy.com
I'll be back💖
Hi, Brent! Why did you cry? I know you have empathy . I suppose that you had grief or may be you had miserable experience once?
No, Natalya. I have been very lucky. It was simply empathy. I felt for the families who had to bury a very young son or daughter.
Now imagine 26 million people, most of them are unknown because they were wiped out, burned by families, by villages. They weren't military. That's how many Soviet people died during that war. There is a movie "Come and see" - Иди и смотри. It is a movie about a boy, who witnessed what the crazed german nazi military people had done on their land and with their people. It is hard to watch and understand and better to read the plot before watching the movie. But the atmosphere of the movie makes you feel like being a part of those events. Just think, hundreds are burned alive, unknown forever.
I always say to children at school - 20 cities like Ekaterinburg have disappeared.
It's awful, Yulia. So much suffering. Earlier this year, I read a book called, Leningrad: The Epic Siege of World War II, 1941-1944. Such terrible suffering during this time. It's hard to even imagine.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent About the fight by Leningrad, I personally knew people from both sides. The most shocking thing was that everyone had his own truth. It was a surprise to me that even from the German side, there were people who were forced to go to war by terror and fear for their relatives. There were criminals on both sides.
Those cries show how patriotic you are towards your country and the ones who fought for it. I truly wish one day comes that all nations live in peace, but that's of course wishful thinking.
I could not agree more, Maz. I feel the same towards anyone who dies for their country. War is such a horrible thing.
13:53 I noticed these awkward steps before you complained and I said to myself he can't continue explaining 🤣🤭
Haha! It was so awkward. Thanks, Mahdi!
I want the book but I don't live in USA
You’re entering into the drawing. 😉
