Learn English: "-ish"

Learn a very simple and easy expression in English: ‘-ish’. In conversation, we often add ‘-ish’ to the end of a word to change its meaning. What is the difference between green and greenish? What colour is my hair? Is it brown or is it reddish, blondish, or brownish? I’ll also teach you some other ways in which the suffix ‘-ish’ appears in English.

I'm learing English as forien for 36 years ... and i can say your lessons are WONDERFUL without ISH :-)

[@udomvannapat3866]

Hi Emma I like the way you teach.From old man in Bangkok Thailand 🇹🇭

[@alfieromonteverdi7980]

As usually an amazing lesson from our favourite teacher 👏👏 We all hope to speak English better than it is possible but for now we speak like a beginer-ish speaker !!!!

[@Hardman7]

Is it correct to add the suffix-ish at the end of a noun? Beginer is not an adjective ; confirm it with Ms Amma , pls.

[@alexandredesallesmascarenh8139]

I love Canada and I love your lessons. Thank you so much. You're my favorite teacher!

[@user-fk4ic2wy9x]

Эмма!!! Вы умница!!! Emma, you are a very smart one!!!Спасибо за урок!!! Thank you for this lesson!!!

[@christopherru100]

This video was awesome! I'm so glad to see you making videos again. I'm a native speaker, but this still helped me. I'm 41 years old and seldom have used the 'ish' in casual conversation. All of a sudden I hear all of these young people using the 'ish' in casual conversation all of the time. You explained what this is and if it's being used properly. Obviously, I knew words like childish or sheepish were correct, but I wasn't sure about it being used to add to other words so casually.

[@sarfarazahmad8132]

Very useful video ,i am from India,i love your English lectures

[@syedali9217]

I like your videos find them bit informative as I suggest you that please make more videos on phrasal verbs, idioms, and slangs too cause these things make us like a native speaker

[@jocimar1625]
