I'm not native in English, so I don't know how it sounds for natives, but I can tell you that in my native languages (I have two), I sometimes misunderstand what they sing in songs or what somebody has just said. it happens. And often people just speak in a wrong way. Very rarely you can meet a person who speaks even 99% properly and clearly. Leave alone regional features...
Hi there! In the movie clips illustrating "sucker", there were a couple of examples where "sucker" was followed by "for" - e.g. "I'm a sucker for the classic American novel." -- That's another kind of "sucker" - "a person irresistibly attracted by something specified." (Merriam-Webster) I'm sorry to intervene but some of the viewers might be confused. That's why I took the liberty of adding the missing information.
I think the key here is "irresistibly". Kevin defines a sucker as a person who is "easily" tricked or fooled. That can be expanded to mean a person who doesn't "resist" something in general (trickery, love of soccer, etc.), hence the slang meaning of "sucker".
It's Ukrainian girl with almost 2 million youtube subscribers. She made an enormous effort to speak American English fluently, but she is still a non-native English speaker. It's very strange that she still makes mistakes, such as saying 'you tell to...'"
don't be so jugemental who doesn't make mistakes? Noone her english is brilliant. futher more I'm pretty sure she knows these grammar rules but when you talk you make mistakes. even english native speakers make mistakes. If your english was half that good beleive it or not your english would be pretty good.
@@ericban842 you miss one important thing - according to her aggressive advertising she is teaching from beginning to advanced level. It's nothing free from her service. Finally - everyone has their own opinion
@@áúéúóá she has to make a living , I got that but my point is it's not because she made this mistake while she was talking which means she doesn't know this grammar rule.
As native Russian speakers with our vowel system, we almost don't distinguish between the UH and AH sounds like native English speakers do. It takes a lot of practice to understand and hear the difference
Привет. Просто открывайте рот больше при звуке А в слове "soccer "(опускайте челюсть ниже), и,наоборот, рот почти не открывается при этом звуке в слове "sucker" и все получится!
Why do people pretend to know something to then pretend they are able to teach? I still don't understand.. Thanks Kevin and Liza to show that we can't trust anyone in our learning journey . These "avoid mistakes made by" series have become my favorite.
Хорошие преподаватели, но к сожалению в основном весь контент держится на хейте. Им бы сначала между собой договорится почему они в разных странах и даже областях произносят все по разному. А уж такие вещи как yacht который почему то ёч итп.
Hi Kevin, how you doin' ?. I was wondering, if something is correct, I mean if an expression or a word is correct, like you said, then we can say that expression or word, we can use it, even though it's not common Am I right Kevin ? just like in this example expression: - "She said TO me that it was wrong". or. - She said IT to me. AND. - He told me that story. or. - He told that story TO me. - He told IT TO me. (To tell something to someone) One more thing Kevin; The example on the screen says; - "He said it'S cold". I was wondering, shouldn't it be ?. - "He said it WAS cold". Thank you very much in advance for the answers Kevin 😊👍. I'll be waiting for them.
Despite the mistakes, she sounds better than Marina.😅
I totally agree.
@@markkram9331I tend to disagree... Her voice is annoying to a French guy.
@@frankbougrasse8047 not as annoying as french guys 😂
@@Hooverlord Maybe... But a French person would never pretend to be an English teacher... 🤣

How do you rate her American accent overall? Sounds pretty good to me.

I'm a sucker for soccer.

Haha a 'sucker team' made my day 😂 thanks!
Вот и до моей любимки добрались
Pride goes before a fall. Fake native speakers must be spotted and stopped.
Another great video...
Maybe there was a sucker team that was actually exisiting 🤣🤣
For me as indonesian, it is difficult to say those, but I try, thank for teaching
I really appreciate your guidance and the time you took to teach us sir.❤
Yes, mistakes happen) Hanna is actually not too bad, in fact she is awesome and far better than some other bloggers Kevin has assessed so far)
I agree. She's so good I first thought she was American

(To tell something to someone)
One more thing Kevin;
The example on the screen says;
- "He said it'S cold".
I was wondering, shouldn't it be ?.
- "He said it WAS cold".
Thank you very much in advance for the answers Kevin 😊👍.
I'll be waiting for them.
Oh no.... a team of suckers
The first one wrong anyway it's called football 😂
It's not wrong anyway.
😊
The British call it "football" but Americans call it "soccer".

Plus it should be,
"The first one IS wrong.."
