I would be super happy to join your speaking course, Wes. However, life has kept me busy. So first and foremost thing is surviving. The next best thing is definitely improving my language skills. Needless to repeat that I love your style of teaching. Thank you, Sir.
2:17. The phrase 'beat around the bush'; we use as 'peck a bush to bring out a snake' . This means 'to do what you don't have to' for us/indigenous people. 10:09. The phrase 'down to earth'; we, also, express our phrase one's bare foot being on the ground. Thank you for your useful phrase/expression.
@@InteractiveEng sama. Thank you for your precious comment. Would you mind if I ask you? 3:25 the next best thing. In my dictionary this phrase is the Title of the US's movie in 2000. Would this be a new colloquial phrase or your favorite?
Thanks a lot for this brilliant expresions ✨ I think I don't have an ear for English pronunciation!! It's not about you, your pronunciation is crystal clear. I wish everybody spoke it as clear as you do!! 🤗
i appreciate you, I appreciate your time, I just started watching your videos and you are awesome, your Technicas to teach english are only, as well your give the best pronunciation.
Sir I am a tad bit confused about the phrase "Beat Around The Bush"as u have mentioned it's meaning to avoid talking about something important "but as far as I have known it's meaning to avoid talking unnecessary in order to come to the point.Kindly clear my doubt
I've hit the like button, even though I was delighted to recognize all the phrases, not even having real strong C1. You manner of presenting the language and personality is to my liking. . Looking forward to new videos .
❤ i don't even know how to appreciate you and thank you for your courses, videos. If only you imagine how you help people out there you would have been posting videos every 5 minutes daily 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I've been hurdling in my speaking skills as well as writing couples of months ago because I merely have limited vocabularies. However when I saw your videos constantly all heard listening to it eagerly every single day Wow, I'm surprised with filled of exhilaration and gleefulness beacuse my skills in English is dramatically improving...It utterly bolster my confidence .Thanks Wes. You really change me a lot ...
Here are some nice phrases I composed with the vocabulary learned today. - Nowadays, with the prices rising to the sky, everybody is having rough times trying to make ends meet 😆 - First and foremost, I have to say that this lesson has been of utmost importance, not only covering the mere meaning of the words, but also remarking that they go hand in hand with pronunciation. Thank you teacher.
Another of the highest standard video, Wes. You've kept your bar high, no doubt. Some of these expressions are new for me. Most of them were mentioned already in previous visual presentations. Thank you very much.
I think I have an ear for accents too. Like I can pick them apart and even in a language I'm not very fluent I can kind of tell some dialects apart. Also I noticed it when I could easily sing a song while others are tone deaf and would not even notice it.
@@InteractiveEng Thank you much for your lectures. :) I have decided to get IELTS and CELTA certificate, so I need to gain some knowledge. It is a long way but I hope to manage this one.
First and foremost, my girlfriend said that she's not ready for relationships and that she wants me to wait, so I'm broken... But guess what is the next best thing?! Learning the language! It perfectly helps me with beating around the bush. Sir, thank you, the set of phrases you've prepared is 200% useful for me! p.s. learning new things helps me to distract myself, so if you're heartbroken too, just try learning something. I wish peace and love for everyone.
Pretty informative. I've just found the channel and I think Imma stick around for a month or so to hopefully start breaking through that plateau of B2 and make it to C1.
I didn't beat around the bush here or over there. I have had enough of it. now I am blessed that I have an ear to my teachers. Wes, I am pretty much done with my idea.
Have you ever heard about Anki ? A free application that uses a system of memorization that uses a concept of card front and back.I think that's perfect to implement with these expressions because you can put audio with so we'll know it sounds like and the phrase. And in the back of the card the meaning of the sentence like an explanation
First and formost : (firsten formost) the most important thing - beat around the bush: to avoid what is most important - the next best thing: refers to the things you have,when you couldn't have what you really want Easier said than done : difficult to do -To have an ear for ( something) : refers to someone who are good at hearing understanding language music Eg : some have ears for music - Behind the times : not fashionable or modern Eg : ten video games are behind the times Face the music: to accept the criticism -Have had enough: to want something to stop because it is annoying you -Make ends meet : to have just money to buy things you need ( associated with hardship and difficulty) - Go hand in hand with: when something is closely related to something else ,eg : this suitcase has been designed to go hand in hand with this backpack - for the most part: mostly or usually down to earth: practical and realistic
Thanks a lot. Learning vocabulary has always been a thing easier said than done for me but your lessons are really helping. May I ask if we can use these phrases in our writings or are they too informal to do so?
first and foremost; beat around the bush; the next best thing; easier said than done; have an ear for; behind the times; down-to-earth; face the music; have had enough; make ends meet; go hand in hand with; for the most part.
you are a great teacher, this is the first video I watched from your channel and I like your way, keep going!! i decided to watch a video every day and improve my level.
Beat around the bush: you have already taught this one. I've been watching your videos since covid pandemic started. You already have a video on this. It was an outdoor video, to the best of my remembrance. We want new things in your newest videos. Please avoid repeating dear Wes. Hope I didn't annoy you😊.
Glad you enjoy the lessons and find them helpful. From time to time, I'll use some of the same vocabulary because it's always good to review. It helps move these words and phrases into your active memory. 😃
Hi, Wes! How's it going today? Hope that all's well on your end. Thanks for this another great advanced vocabulary video - well done! I just can't seem to recall whether I already asked you this question, but what’s the difference between the phrases "more importantly" and "most importantly"? Can they be used interchangeably? Appreciate your reply on this when you get a breather. Thanks very much, and all the best!
Thanks for your comment. Idioms are considered phrases because there are two or more words. But what makes it an 'idiom' is that the words together have a different meaning than the individual words. 👍
First and foremost I would like to say thank you for the unwavering support to us thru uploading your videos.I am truly grateful for the learnings you have imparted to us..Every single day I watch your amazing videos.Thank you because my vocabularies are improving.
"Easier said than done": sometimes it is the opposite, isn't it? For instance to pronounce "conscious" is harder than to be conscious :) What is that (stop motion?) puppet movie in the "have an ear for" chapter (08:29)? That one in the car (perhaps in a taxi?).
Thank you, Wes, for the usual incredible lesson. I already knew the expression "Easier said than done" and have already used it in some context. However, in some other situations, I frequently would have liked to say the opposite and never have I found the right words. For instance, if I give some long explanations such as giving directions and I'm afraid of frightening the person to whom I'm talking, what can I say to reassure them that it's very easy? "Easier done than said"? 😂 Does it sound ridiculous? Thank you in advance for your help!

I have an important question for you my dear teacher.. What's the difference between Advanced Phrases and Idioms?
Thanks for your comment. Idioms are considered phrases because there are two or more words. But what makes it an 'idiom' is that the words together have a different meaning than the individual words. 👍
Thank you for this video, I'm form Morocco and I love learning English

Hi teacher, how do you pronoun three nouns together? like [ business sustainability management] which word to stress?
"Easier said than done": sometimes it is the opposite, isn't it? For instance to pronounce "conscious" is harder than to be conscious :)
What is that (stop motion?) puppet movie in the "have an ear for" chapter (08:29)? That one in the car (perhaps in a taxi?).
Thank you, Wes, for the usual incredible lesson. I already knew the expression "Easier said than done" and have already used it in some context.
