    A brilliant lesson Anna which I guess will be very useful for beginners and 'lower/middle intermediates'.
    That said I suppose we could live without it, a bit like Monsieur Jourdain was making and speaking prose without even knowing it ! ;-) ('Le bourgeois gentilhomme' by Molière).
    Personally I like grammar lessons. I think that is important to master and get a good understanding of the structure and the logical of a language.
    I think that 3 / 4 years at a normal school rhythm is enough to master the entire English grammar (which was my case), where 8 to 9 years are necessary for a good mastery of French grammar. And still, beyond and after middle and even high school, rare are those who really master it and without making mistakes ... Vive l' anglais ! Even if French, of course, remains that beautiful and extraordinary language.
    That red colour suits you well, you're magnificent!
    Merci beaucoup Anna, love ya, bisous bisous 😘🌹💕💕
    ❤.

    One more thing, I particularly enjoy the podcasts with transcripts you've been creating, and those C1-C2 vocabulary lessons! Hope to see more of these in the future!

    In the example with uncle, you first misidentified "uncle" as the head noun. It is of course"man".

    When I was in England, in a library I found a three horizontal sections cut book ( each page was cut in 3 sections) with swear words taken from Shakespeare's work that you could combine matching each of the upper stripe of the swear word page with any of the other lower stripes. Shakespeare was a maestro at making naughty noun phrases 👅

    ~~~~ Anna ~~~~
    Three hundred days it's been
    That I have been circling
    Around a love evening
    With Anna
    Ye, Five full months it's been
    That she's been escaping
    She must find me too dim
    Not strong enough in theme
    I can't find the thema
    That does make wet Anna
    To each of my poems
    Anna, Anna, Anathema
    'Can't find the theorem
    At the board of Anna
    I am a 'cancre las'
    Weary, tired, Oh las !
    Oh how weary I am
    Yes buddies there I am
    With Anna
    Yet I'm following her
    Like the gentle porter
    Carrying the letters
    Of melancholia
    But I'll find the thema
    That will water Anna
    Her gaze of a mermaid
    Will look into my case
    She will get my lady
    That her jewel is me
    Hip Hip Hip Hip Hurrah
    Hip Hip Hip Eureka
    O Hosa HosAnnah!
    She'll understand my queen
    The extent of my skills
    The value of my quill
    But now in the waiting:
    Three hundred days it's been
    that I have been circling
    Around a love Evening
    With Anna
    Ye five full months it's been
    That she's been escaping
    She must find me too dim
    Not strong enough in theme.

    Hi Anna. This sounds like a most useful lesson. Thank you. By the way, would you say that "noun phrase" and noun clause" are two different concepts and explain a bit about how to use both?

    • @onesandzeroes
      @onesandzeroes Рік тому +2

      Before Anna has a chance to reply, let me give it a try,
      Yes, these are two different concepts. A *noun phrase* is just a noun plus its modifiers (adjectives, quantifiers, articles, even relative clauses, as shown in the video). A *noun clause* is (as the name suggests) a *clause,* i.e. a subject (noun/pronoun) + verb + (optionally) object, adverbials, etc. that *functions like a noun* in a sentence.
      For example, in _What he said made no sense,_ "What he said" is a noun clause because it behaves the same as a noun or prooun ( *It* made no sense, *The story* made no sense) . The clause functions as the subject of the sentence.
      In _I don't believe what she said._ "what she said" is also a noun clause, but this time it's the object of "believe". The clause could be replaced with a pronoun or noun (I don't believe *it,* I don't believe *her story* ).
      To compare the two concepts:
      I don't believe *the unbelievably stupid story.* - the highlighted part is a noun phrase.
      I don;t believe *what she told me last night.* - the highlighted part is a noun clause.
      It can get a little confusing when a clause is part of a noun phrase:
      I don't believe *the unbelievably stupid story that she told me last night.*
      The clause which is part of this noun phrase is a relative (adjecive) clause, though, not a noun clause. It doesn't function like noun, but more like an adjective that tells us more about the head noun ("story").

    ~~~~~ Pastoral obsession ~~~~
    I love to stroll around, nature's so beautiful,
    Constantly ecstatic at the sight sensual
    Of the many bold curves, which to my vision draw,
    To my greatest delight, the ones of my neighbour!
    The groove of the ploughing that rises to the crest,
    In an undulation lasciviously perfect
    Imposes upon me the spine's superb vision
    On the fall of the back of my troubling neighbour.
    Two mounds in the distance, which bar the horizon
    Looking at the heavens, stretched out in oration,
    In a voluptuousness of a divine lewdness,
    It is the insolent curve of my neighbour's breasts.
    And the arrogant grove enthroned in the field' midst
    The feet in the dampness of an enticing stream,
    Whose frippery fluid so much me enamours
    It's the bushy scorching thicket of my neighbour.
    Farther a brazen breach my eyes follow amazed
    Cuts, in two prideful mounts, a mischievous mountain;
    Triumphant and haughty, and all up there it walks,
    The impertinent groove of my neighbour's buttocks.
    When I arrive back home, still moved and nostalgic
    And my whole mind filled with erotic fantasies,
    I find my neighbour lad in a naughty posture
    Besogoning my spouse,... 'quite his liking' neighbour.
    F. 01 20 23.
    😂 sensual - humour
