I always wait a little bit at the at the beginning  of these I think we’re okay though all right hello   I am Drew Badger the founder of englishanyone.com  and the English fluency guide and today we’re   going to talk about automatic English fluency  basically how to program your brain so that it  

Gets you fluent automatically all right looks  like chat is working that’s good news all right   uh let’s get started I don’t think this will be a  long lesson portion but who knows we will see what  

Kind of questions we get uh but hopefully look at  George nice to see you there uh Tom nice to see   you there everybody right on time so I do try to  try to keep these uh timely or I guess not timely  

But on time uh but in uh today’s video I want to  talk about a a couple of different things but all   related to basically using your mind uh the right  way so you can Pro program yourself for what to  

Pay attention for so that your brain will will  notice things and it will let you know hey like   here’s an example of something here’s something  you should pay attention to uh and that’ll get   you fluent faster uh so I wanted to make this  video because uh people would been asking me  

About I think there’s there’s still uncertainty  about how people should be learning uh and also   if you’re trying to get uh excuse me trying to get  fluent by yourself what can you do to actually to   practice the language so to practice using it  practice uh and develop your understanding uh  

So recently uh my I was speaking with my wife I  think this was like a few days ago and we were   talking about the difference between oh no my  marker or my Eraser over here see if this still  

Yeah it’s still working so we were talking about  the difference between uh until and by so by has   a couple of different meanings but specifically  when talking about time uh so I had like she was  

She had confused until and by and I had confused  the Japanese equivalent of M and M uh and so we   were we were talking about that uh and I was just  trying to help her understand it and thinking  

About uh trying to help her understand this I I’ll  give you like a quick lesson about this right now   so you can think about about this if we have  a uh just a time period uh if you’re if you’re  

Confused about until uh versus by so until we’re  actually talking about like sometime before until   this point over here but uh by we’re actually  more concerned about like this time period here  

And after I know it sounds a little bit odd uh to  think about it this way but it it works the same   way in Japanese when we’re when we’re talking  about like M and M uh but in general when I’m  

When I was talking with my wife about this the the  confusion is because they’re they’re both talking   about the same point in time where like I need to  I need to like finish my work or I have until 5:00  

To finish something so I can I can actually finish  my work at any time during this time I can finish   my work at 1:00 or 1:30 or 2 or 4: but I have to  finish it uh I have until 5:00 so when I’m talking  

About until I’m talking about any time up until  this specific point but by it’s talking about   the same period but the important thing is this  specific time not this this whole kind of area of   time here because something else will happen from  this time so I have to finish it by Friday because  

It’s the weekend and then the the professor will  you know know grade the tests or you know check my   paper or something like that so there we can even  be talking about I need to do something until five  

Or by five uh but the difference is what we’re  talking about are we talking about the period of   time before something happens or are we talking  about something that’s that’s about to happen or   will happen uh during some other period of time  here so the interesting thing was I was talking  

With my wife about this uh and also me trying to  get more examples of of like M uh I won’t write   the Japanese but M and M which were both examples  of this same thing uh and what was interesting is  

That as I focused on that particular thing I  started seeing more examples of that all over   the place so I saw it in the things I was reading  or I heard it on the news or something like that  

And so what you’ll notice when you’re trying to  learn languages or anything really uh the thing   that you focus on on it becomes very obvious in  your world so people who are looking for a new   house or a new car or something like that they  will start seeing information about that thing  

All over the place so if you’re looking for even a  specific thing I want to buy a minivan uh or a red   minivan or a a specific you know whatever kind of  car it is I will start seeing those all over the  

Place because I’m telling my mind excuse me I’m  telling my mind Focus on that thing and so what   what you will often see like kind of English  lessons or whatever when people are trying to   study something they will look at a particular I’m  I’m trying to give you this very quickly and and  

Help you understand this but the the better way  to do it is just to get lots of examples and so   you see how it works and so like I was I was  working out until this time so I was working  

Out until this time I was playing at the beach  until this time I have to finish my homework   uh by this time so by this time because like  well that’s the cut off period and something  

Else will happen after that all right so those  are just a few examples but as you get more of   them and you hear them in different tenses hear  them from different speakers that will also help   you understand those things more like a native  so really understanding we want to understand  

When people say things so we have a again what  usually talk about here for these lessons when   we’re learning English as a first language so  you’re learning like a native speaker you want   to learn when people say things because you’re  paying attention to the language patterns that  

People use and so when we have like at this time  or in this situation people will say this thing or   they might say this thing or this thing something  like that and so when you’re paying attention for  

The language patterns you will get examples of the  like the particular grammar or uh the vocabulary   you’re focusing on but you will also get other  examples of other things you can say okay so   remember uh like people will give examples of  like you use uh until for this or you you use  

By for this example and that can be helpful but  often people will be thinking more about the   rules and the whole point is to develop automatic  fluency and so we want to tell our brain hey you  

Should focus on this this is the particular thing  we want you or I want you to focus on so when I’m   getting lots of examples I might I might try  to like you call it like seeding to seed your

Brain so you seed your brain by giving your brain  examples whatever that is like if I’m focusing   on a particular grammar point or something  that’s a little bit more kind of difficult   for me uh but the easy way to understand this  is it’s like when you really want something or  

You’re very interested in something your mind  will begin to get more of that information for   you it will make more of that obvious and it will  tell you hey here’s another example of that thing   you will notice it a lot more when you are paying  attention for it okay hopefully this makes sense  

Uh but the basic idea is if you look at your your  brain so every day your brain is getting lots of   information I’ll draw a quick little brain over  here here so there’s lots of information coming  

Into your brain all all the time you’re seeing  things you’re hearing things and a lot of it you   don’t notice you don’t consciously notice you’re  not actively paying attention to it and so what   happens is your brain is kind of cutting out a  lot of this information and it’s only letting  

A few of these things come to your your active  kind of oh okay my my active awareness level uh   of understanding okay but the interesting thing  is like I just gave the example before if you  

Tell your brain hey I want you to focus on this  then your brain will find more examples of that   thing for you okay hopefully that makes sense so  another example of this is uh when I’m teaching  

My kids and I I understand this principle so if  I hear my kids are maybe they learn a new word or   phrase or they’re asking me about something and  how something works will intentionally give them  

More examples of that just like every few days I  will give them another example until they get it   until they start using that thing because it means  they’ve understood that well enough that they have  

The confidence to use it so one example uh is with  my older daughter Arya so Arya was I think she   was she was like playing a a game with me we were  throwing some teddy bears around the room I don’t  

Remember exactly what we were doing uh but I was  I was uh over here and she was over here I’ll put   some long hair on her so this is me this is her  and I was throwing the teddy bear up in the air  

Like this and she was trying to throw the teddy  bear this way and we were we were kind of passing   them around like this so throwing the teddy bears  around and at first like she was like oh no like  

She threw her teddy bear up here and I threw mine  and they hit each other and they just fell to the   ground and she said oh no we didn’t get it so I  said no no look I’ll go over and you go under okay  

I will go over and you go under and after a while  then we started getting them moving well so I was   going oh we had a nice little circle going like  that and so she said oh I’m getting the hang of

It I’m getting the hang of it I’m getting the  hang of it now you’ll notice this is a t here   or to teas here but I say getting getting this  is the American English pronunciation getting   getting because it’s just faster and easier to  say then getting getting so I’m getting the hang  

Of it so I didn’t try to teach this this phrase to  Arya just as like a like a phrase that I’m saying   to her this is after she had a few examples of  other things before like when I’m teaching her  

How to ride a bike I say oh look you’re you’re  doing well you’re getting the hang of it you   understand how to do it you’re getting the hang  of it so the situation we have when something  

Is happening so she is doing some kind of task  and understands it she can perform and action   well and she’s her skill level is increasing so  that’s what’s happening that’s the situation and   so there are different levels or different ways  that I could express that I could say oh you’re  

Doing very well you are improving you are getting  better or I could say you are getting the hang of   it which is just a very casual conversational way  of expressing the same idea so because uh like  

I gave her she understood the situation and she  knows that getting the hang of it is is one thing   she could say there are others so she’s she’s  got many ways of saying that but because she’s  

I’ve kind of seeded her brain with that example  yes getting the hang of it getting the hang of   it so I’m getting the hang of playing baseball or  I’m getting the hang of the guitar whatever that  

Thing is you’re getting the hang of it getting  the hang of it and often you can look at this   and try to understand it logically like what  does that mean like you’re like hanging hanging  

On something why do we even say that it’s like a  weird a weird way of expressing that but even if   you don’t understand the origin of the word like  my daughter I I didn’t try to explain that to her  

I’m just I’m using the vocabulary and connecting  the the vocabulary with different situ ation so   the same thing with my wife giving examples  of like until and by or for myself learning   Japanese when I tell my brain this is the thing  I’m interested in I want to learn more about this  

Please give me more examples your brain will like  naturally uh find that for you okay so for you out   there the important thing if you want to develop  fluency automatically just tell your brain what  

To focus on it’s not about getting uh like trying  to study a rule just begin giving your brain more   examples of something and then your brain will  automatically begin finding more things oh like   this person is is interested in this it’s kind  of like your brain is responding to your request  

For information because you are actively looking  for more stuff so your brain will begin to make   that more apparent to you it will make it more  obvious for you as you’re as you’re learning yes   your your brain use your brain over there okay  any questions about that specifically so this  

Is not a complicated idea the point is really  that your brain is getting lots of signals lots   of information coming to it all the time but most  of it it just doesn’t care about because if that’s  

Not important to you then your brain will not  listen to that so it’s like if if someone stands   up in a room and says who here is a doctor I will  stop listening because I’m not a doctor I don’t  

It’s it’s like not a message for me but if I say  oh who is interested in like learning more about   by and until let me give you some more examples  of that thing until you get it but that’s how  

You develop the skill it seems like it should be a  logical thing that you just teach yourself a rule   and then you use it fluently but often especially  with grammar that’s not the case so people need to   get more examples of something until they really  feel confident that they understand something they  

Recognize the pattern they understand when to  use something and then they will start using it   fluently okay all right let me go back and answer  questions if you have questions about this or if   you have questions about anything else uh do let  me know let me go back and check this out though  

All right nice to see everybody here all right  hater says hi Sophia says hi all right right on   time there we go uh cam is back from Thailand nice  to see you there Claudia nice to see you there G  

Sham good morning over there uh kayada nice to  see you there hi everyone says 214 9212 I can’t   believe your parents gave you that name that’s a  crazy name oh my goodness [ __ ] says hello nice  

To see you there all right let’s make questions  to teacher Drew you can say let’s you can say   let’s make questions for or you can say let’s give  questions to or you can say let’s ask questions  

Liz nice to see you there uh lehua nice to see  everybody there let’s see best Japanese teacher   ever says Don I don’t know about that yo yo yo  still having boring English class and watching   you you should tell tell your friends in the class  about me to say everybody watch your phone while  

You should be watching uh this class over here  all right uh let’s see catch your stream what   I’m wondering is why my teachers immersed in her  teaching method well I I think it it seems like  

The logical thing to do is just like well look  here’s a rule and we will tell it to you and then   you just remember the rule and uh I think the like  when people ask me like if my method is so awesome  

Why isn’t everybody doing it like why why doesn’t  everybody just teach English as a first language   uh I think the answer is because it doesn’t  matter for tests so most people like for XD to   the L over there if you are uh learning English  maybe in college or high school I think you’re  

In college um but if you’re if you’re learning  a language for a classroom you’re probably not   going to be speaking very much and most of the  uh like the the testing will be written form   so maybe you have a listening exam or multiple  choice or something like that uh but you don’t  

Have to actually be tested on that and when you’re  reading or writing or even listening you have time   to process information but in conversations you  have to be quick you have to respond automatically  

When people are saying things to you so that’s you  know I think that’s why people do that I can’t say   for sure uh but even if I were teach teaching in  the classroom still I would be teaching this way  

I would be helping people learn English as a  first language because it’s still better than   the other ways and It prepares you for tests all  right yes so Tom says bye was some moment uh near  

That specific time I think I got it yeah so the  the point is more getting you to think about like   I try to help you understand something the way a  native would understand it but the point of this  

Video is really that you should be getting lots of  examples and the more examples you get the more a   automatic it becomes for you so you can tell your  brain hey basically find me more information tell  

Me more when when someone is using this word  or you hear something uh because if you’re not   paying attention for it then you will you will  probably hear examples of things all the time  

Uh but you don’t notice it it’s like when you  when you watch a movie as a child and then you   you go back and watch that movie 20 years later  and you say oh look like that famous actor is in  

The movie because at that time you weren’t paying  attention for that so the brain uh it will help   you if you tell it what to focus on and it will  say hey it will remind you oh look someone just  

Used that word that you’re trying to study and so  often when I’m teaching people things they will   say oh look like I noticed that in a conversation  or I heard that on the news or something and it’s  

Because you’re telling your mind to be aware of  things like that M SAA says hi from Italy nice to   see you there let’s see all right uh Diego says  High people from Colombia Bridget says hello my   favorite teacher nice to see you there mamed  thanks thanks let’s see Demetri hello everyone  

G sham is what is the difference in until or till  yeah they’re basically the same thing uh like till   is just a faster way of saying it all right uh  rodo from Brazil all right thanks hello it’s a  

Good lesson thanks for sharing with us AAR says it  is nice to attend from the beginning and this did   not happen to me today oh no well you can go back  and watch the beginning of the stream uh anytime  

Let’s see in Portuguese p a manha okay I guess  that means like getting the hang of something or   maybe not I don’t know and youf I don’t know what  that sad face is let’s see uh I’m getting the hang  

Of cricket yeah so if you’re if you’re learning  a particular skill and you will hear this again   and again oh I’m getting the hang of it and then  you will learn not only the phrase but you will  

Also hear it used in different time periods so I  was getting the hang of it but then I got worse   so let’s say I was I was starting to learn a game  like Cricket so maybe I went to a few practices  

I was getting the hang of it but then I stopped  so then I stopped going and I forgot how to play   the game or I forgot how to do something uh let’s  see here but yes let me know again if you have any  

Questions about this or anything uh related really  to anything anything I can help you with with your   English let’s see Louis says Hi teacher you are  the best teacher in YouTube thank you well it’s my  

Pleasure uh I don’t know about the best but I do  what I can let’s see my first live with you thanks   a lot I prefer an associate method like yours to  learn a language yes basically what I’m doing is  

Helping you learn English like you learned your  first language it’s it’s the same process and so   a young child like they hear getting the hang of  it and they’re not logically trying to figure out   like what do you mean you’re getting something  and hanging what like they’re not they’re not  

Really thinking about it that deeply what they’re  trying to understand is this collection of sounds   and when do we use that collection of sounds so  that’s what language is to a child they’re not   thinking about it logically I could say blah  blah blah blah blah and if I always say that  

At a certain time like if I right before I eat I  say blah blah blah blah blah or you know something   like that then the child will associate that  they will they will make that connection between  

The situation so when something happens and what  people say and so what I’m telling you is you can   remind your brain hey like give me more examples  of this particular word or phrase and you can also  

Say hey like what do what do people say in this  situation what are some other things people say   because you could hear like this one I’m getting  the hang of it or you could hear you’re doing it  

Well or you’re improving or you’re getting getting  better at something there are lots of ways that   you could express that thing uh all right let’s  see all right I agree with Lewis I don’t know   what you’re agreeing to let’s see receiver says  hi there I was late again sorry it’s okay uh  

You don’t have to uh apologize for that I don’t I  never let people know exactly when these are going   live I just kind of go live uh the next live video  when will that be I think probably this Thursday  

So three days from now what is that 72 hours from  now so I guess my uh my Thursday in Japan so it   should be then here Mabel hello wonderful teer  nice to see you there uh and sillo 61 if Simone  

Is getting hanged can I say his getting the hang  of it you could like people people have used that   joke in movies or things like that oh like he’s  he’s getting the hang of it you know what what  

What movie used that recently that I saw somebody  somebody was getting hanged and a guy was making   that joke uh or there other other jokes that you  could make in a similar way is there some schedule  

For your YouTube classes and thank you for the  current one says Demitri uh not usually but often   I will be doing either Monday or Thursday but I  don’t announce it anywhere I just go on uh but if  

You’re not here for the live video you can still  watch it later Christmas Eve is around the corner   uh and Co Cod event too I hope you’re I hope  you’re learning something in college because  

It sounds like you should be just studying uh game  design or just Call of Duty or something like that   armano says uh besides or you could say aside from  or just beside ja or like beside Japanese how many  

Languages do you speak or no I know a little  bit of Spanish uh but not very much I couldn’t   I couldn’t like go to I remember actually when I  was in in Colombia a few years ago uh and trying  

To speak with people it was really frustrating for  me because I couldn’t I I mean I could just ask   people like I don’t know Don Albano or whatever  there wasn’t much I could say just like what time  

Is it and you know asking for food and uh yeah so  I I I I can understand some some Spanish uh but I   wouldn’t be able to speak it very well Spanish so  cool I love it yes uh it’s an interesting language  

I would like to know it more but my problem was  that uh when I was in uh learning languages in   school everyone was or my teachers they were all  teaching the traditional way and just giving me a  

Bunch of rules to memorize but because I didn’t  really understand what I was learning of course   I didn’t have any confidence to speak uh and so  I I remember some random words or I hear things  

Or I like the sound of it so I had actually a an  exchange student from Chile who is still a friend   of our family there’s a a woman named Marcela uh  so she stayed with us in high school and uh I had  

She she would kind of teach me some some Spanish  uh words and phrases and I only remember like Lo   when she was from Chile but I just like the sound  of that so she was we were talking about that but  

I like the sound of it uh and I worked also I  did some construction many years ago well not   really construction was like home remodeling uh  and I worked with a uh basically they were all   like a Spanish-speaking crew except for one guy  actually yeah one guy he spoke English a little  

Bit but so that was fun but anyway uh in those  same situations when I think back now is the   same idea of I I really had to pay attention uh  for when people are doing something and what are  

People saying during that and that’s how I get  to understand the language as a first language   rather than than trying to think about it through  translations and that’s what I’m encouraging uh   you to do here all right let’s see XD again  says there’s a question needed uh question  

Need to be filled in my book there are now in a  position to govern the country in the either the   free Democrats or green party there’s a question  need to be filled in my book for now I don’t know  

What’s your what’s are you asking me a question I  don’t understand what that’s referring to the free   Democrat are the green what what country are you  in are you in Taiwan where where are you located  

All right uh let’s see I have to leave this live  stream it’s okay don’t feel bad about that Don   says how can I use the word characteristics sir  I watch a lot of examples and I still can’t get  

It or feel confident to use it very good um so  characteristic is just talking about it’s a it’s   a way of describing something so a characteristic  of this marker is that it’s red a characteristic  

Of this marker marker is that I can write with  it so it’s a a way of describing something so   you can describe something physically like a  characteristic again of the marker it’s like   long and and thin or it’s light or heavy or I  could talk about a like a mental or figurative  

Characteristic of something so a characteristic of  like a friend of yours maybe they are a very happy   and kind person or maybe they are mean or maybe  they like candy or maybe they don’t eat meat or   something all of those ways of describing things  are just characteristics and so this is where we  

Also get a character from so a character is like  a person like me or my daughter so my daughter we   can say oh she’s a she’s an interesting character  or she has many interesting characteristics if I  

Want to describe specific things about her so  I can talk about how she looks so she has kind   of brownish green eyes uh she’s got long brown  hair she likes to wear uh shirts so those are   characteristics those are different ways of  describing something about her uh but I can  

Also talk about she is a very Lively and fun  and energetic girl so she likes to run around   and play and like climb on me uh so those are all  characteristics of her hopefully that makes sense  

So it’s really just a way of describing something  and then you can have a uh really a description   of anything you could have a characteristic of  a town or a city so a characteristic of uh like  

Nagasaki is it it’s uh it’s got good got good  seafood because it’s right on the water a lot   of people get uh good seafood over here uh it’s  also mountainous so there are lots of mountains   or you know kind of hills around Nagasaki as  well hopefully that makes sense but you notice  

Like I want to keep giving you examples until  you’re like ah now I get it but the point is   not to repeat the word over and over it’s to get  a WI wide range of examples and think like okay  

Like what has a characteristic where where might  we hear that word uh what does it describe okay   let me know if that doesn’t make sense uh I think  here all right uh let’s see Tom says until prior  

To a up till yeah so if you want to have there  are again yes different ways of describing this   whole this whole uh this whole time period so if  you have a time period like up until this time  

Period or until or till those are all different  ways of describing the same thing so we have the   situation situation is describing a time period  up until this period here so this point in time   we can talk about doing something from here to  here or until here or up to here they’re all  

Different ways of describing the same thing uh X  again the textbook gives you some vocabularies and   some sentences you got to fill them and match uh  does that work well Oh you mean as an example or  

An exercise for for learning this way sure you can  you can try to get more examples uh the important   thing that a lesson should be doing is helping  you understand something and often you will still   need more examples to feel very comfortable and  confident because there there really are lots of  

Different ways where uh or or different times when  you would hear something and you would still not   feel very confident about using it so you could  hear something uh make even like the present   tense or the past tense and how do I use it in  a different some other tense something like that  

And so hearing that same thing again and again and  again in lots of different ways is going to help   you understand that thing better but yes you can  certainly create your own sentences like you could  

Do that with chat GPT actually like just did an  experiment with chat GPT uh saying like hey can   you give me some examples of of sentences with  M and M and it like actually gave me the wrong  

Thing I was surprised about that but um anyway  it’s possible if you get those and in a textbook   it should be correct language whatever that is uh  Muhammad says sir I’m from Sudan please teach me   the difference between past simple past perfect  I’m getting confused uh so it’s better uh like  

That’s a a bigger topic uh rather than focusing  on like a particular situation but you would get   uh if you look at uh my channel you’ll find  videos where I cover those already so if you   just search that particular thing like past simple  past perfect uh you’ll find a video series about  

Teaching those grammar points leis again hi  teacher cars need a tuneup uh I wonder if the   exact phrase I can use with a friend when he she  has been without a boy or girlfriend for a while  

Ah uh you could you could say that in a joking  way but a tuneup a tuneup like uh a tuneup implies   that there’s like a like it’s kind of broken down  where if you if you haven’t like been with a you  

Know haven’t had some fun or whatever if that  that’s what you’re talking about it’s a little   bit different but you could say yeah you need  like I don’t know if you’re it would be better  

To use that if if a friend of yours is usually in  good shape so he usually exercising but then for   a month maybe he starts eating some not so good  food and you look at him and you’re like you’re  

Getting a little bit fat man you need a tuneup  that kind of thing so you would take that example   but I understand what you’re trying to say I think  a better like a car analogy would be like uh I  

Don’t know you need to you need like your tires  rotated or something so you you need you need   you need something you need like a kind of like  a refresh so you’re not broken down you’re just  

Like we need to we need to stretch your your legs  a little bit you need to you need to get back in   the game all right so there are different ways of  expressing that uh again you want to describe like  

A friend of yours this is a situation A friend  of yours hasn’t had a boyfriend or a girlfriend   whatever uh and then how might we say that in  like a joking or casual way but yeah you could  

You could say something like that uh actually some  of them have translations behind the words yeah so   like like when people when people use translations  or you see translations in textbooks they’re doing   that because they’re not actually teaching you and  helping you understand the word so that it’s like  

It’s when you you should be able to understand  everything all in English because that’s how   natives learn the language also and people think  I had some argument with somebody where they were   saying like you can’t learn your you can’t learn  learn a second language uh like you need to use  

Translations for that and I I didn’t get a good  reason why you need that because you didn’t do   that with your first language why would you need  to learn that with the second language as well it  

Doesn’t doesn’t make any sense all right I get to  thank you sir God bless your daughter yeah both of   my daughters are doing fine so I tell more stories  about Arya like just because you know she’s been  

Around longer um and she’s old now you know using  things like oh I’m getting the hang of it but it’s   interesting to watch my younger daughter Noel uh  who is almost 5 years old now uh her birthday is  

Right after Christmas that’s actually why we gave  her the name Noel um which means Christmas but the   she she is starting to use more vocabulary and  it’s interesting to to hear the the phrases she   learns as well but she’s doing the same thing  where she she looks at a situation and she’s  

Getting lots of examples of of parents or other  other people saying things in those situations   and that’s how she learns to use the vocabulary  uh Norah says Hi teacher I like your classes   I can understand you glad to hear it suzan from  Germany I’m happy to see you live glad to hear it  

Let’s see let’s see understandable comprehensible  uh like what is what is the difference between   those uh well let’s think let’s think like  if if there is a a difference so what I’m I’m   again thinking about like a native would think  about it so if you have understandable versus comprehensible versus

Comprehend now they can be used the same way well  we can draw this is a a typical a ven diagram   where we’re looking at like this is we’ll just say  this is understandable and this is comprehend so  

There is overlap uh and there are sometimes when  they do not overlap so this is why it’s important   to to not just get like a definition of a word  you want to hear how they’re used in different  

Situations uh so you might understand something  like like I say it like like I hear what you’re   saying so can you understand me like if I’m  if I’m giving a speech and I I’m checking a  

Microphone can everybody understand me all right  uh so they they they get it and and they can hear   what I’m saying but maybe they don’t actually  comprehend what I’m saying so people can uh you   can so that’s even like two different meanings  of understand in the same sentence so here like  

To to hear something and to like yes I I like  follow it logically I understand what you’re   saying I comprehend what you’re saying here  we’re using it the same way uh but comprehend   typically means like a slightly more um it’s  it’s basically only uh when you’re when you  

Really I hate to use understand to describe  it uh but basically when you when you know   something you recognize it you know that thing  uh and yes like you do understand that so this   not actually this is not a clear explanation of  understand versus comprehend because often they  

Are used interchangeably so that’s where we have  this this period or this point here when I ask   people like did you understand what I said like  did you hear what I said do you recognize you   understand the meaning of what I said not like  not only hearing it because understand can mean  

Like hearing uh but this is like where we really  like recognize something here when we comprehend   something because I I could hear something but  not comprehend it like someone could speak to   me in uh in Chinese I could hear them it’s like I  I understand they’re saying something to me but I  

Don’t comprehend what they’re saying I don’t  I don’t I I don’t recognize that I can’t do   anything with that information it’s like bad  data that I can’t do anything with I don’t I   don’t understand it so understand I guess maybe  like a better way to say it is like like here’s  

Understanding and like comprehension is is kind  of in here maybe that’s a better way to express   it I think uh and so you have like you could  you could have like hearing something uh but   here is like you you really understand it well you  recognize it and you could do something with that  

Information so the same thing with the computer  all right so I could I could give the computer   some information maybe the computer doesn’t  understand that though like the it recognizes   information but it can’t do anything with that  information okay but in general uh people use  

Understand it’s a more common word than comprehend  uh and even for language learning like people talk   about comprehensible input but the the the  reason like uh Dr crash Steven crashion uses   the word comprehensible input uh rather than like  understandable is because the point is that you  

You don’t just hear the information you’re  like ah I get it I like yes I got what you   said okay so the whole point of being able to  learn something like a native or understand it   like a first language is that you’re not trying  to translate something or you don’t only hear  

The information you actually you recognize it  like you got yeah I got what you said all right   I didn’t just hear it I also understood it all  right so I I can you can understand something on  

Both of these levels hopefully that makes sense  let me know if I can I can keep talking about   that more but that’s the basic idea uh in general  conversations you might say something like like   this like this writing is incomprehensible like I  don’t I don’t understand what it means so I read  

The words and I might recognize the words but  I don’t understand the like the whole meaning   what are you what are you saying so that’s why  I use a like a different language example so   if someone is speaking Tai Tha or Swahili or  French or I don’t know any other language to  

Me I might understand like I I understand they’re  saying something yeah to grasp or perceive yeah   so those are other different ways of saying that  so it’s different than just when you understand   something where you just like oh I recognize  something or I I hear that thing uh let’s see  

And even like waku is like in Japanese is like  that’s also a little bit vague uh let’s see I’m   not only playing cood but also a lot of games  which are English version Activision Blizzard   uh I think I’ve never used the word comprehend  yeah so you again it’s it’s more of a technical  

Word uh like I wouldn’t use that in a con in  a conversation so if someone says Hey do you   comprehend what I’m saying I would say uh yeah  I guess I understand what you’re saying I would  

But I would never say like I comprehend that um  but in a more like academic or professional sit   situation in that environment you would hear  that phrase or that uh that more all right so   it’s comprehensible you understand what I’m  talking about gotcha all right uh VI says uh  

Thank you for going live back uh then when I just  started learning English I learned five words per   day with the two sentences I could use them very  useful yep just get more examples Armando says  

What is the meaning of box when talking about  money for example it costs a hundred bux ah you   mean so that that’s you Mish hearing so you  heard something but you didn’t comprehend it   so you understood something you you you heard it  but you didn’t comprehend it you’re talking about  

Bucks this is a a slang or casual term for dollars  American money so we might have like five bucks or $5 there’s lots of different ways of describing  money so we could say fraud skins that’s kind  

Of not very common but you will hear it uh or uh  cash or Moola some bucks some dollars five bucks   so be careful uh if you see something like that  like it sounds like five box uh we need to get  

You to improve your listening if you’d like to do  that you should get Frederick click on the link   in the description below this video to get that  uh let’s see anybody else here uh demit say can  

You speak a couple of phrases with your normal  speed not lecture speed and now I can understand   you clearly but I’m Waring about natural speed  things uh sure what would you like me to talk   about I I’ll I’ll give you an example of something  uh Demitri but uh tell me something either that  

You know about or that you don’t know about and I  can I can talk a little bit about either of those   things and we we can test you that way uh Gabriel  says is it used I got it instead of understand yep  

So remember to get something something is like oh  I received that so I could get a physical marker   or I could get an idea I could come to understand  that thing so you understand something and you are  

Trying to tell me or teach me that thing uh and  now I understand that thing too if you express   it very uh understandably comprehensibly so bucks  equals dollars yes Frederick is great awesome uh  

Now I got a buck yeah so one Buck is $1 so this  is five bucks but if we only have one like $1   one Buck that’ll be two bucks one Buck two bucks  three bucks four bucks uh rapael says oh vior says  

Good evening ice to see you there oh that’s right  it’s it’s evening on that side of the world rapael   says Professor do you speak other languages just  English hug from Brazil here so I speak Japanese  

Uh but nothing other than that so my class will  be over in 10 minutes please stop speaking both   English and Chinese um M says my understanding is  very hard my English has some I don’t know what  

That word is how to remember words if I memorize  more words yeah you don’t you don’t want to talk   about um like trying to trying to force yourself  to remember things by reviewing them uh I have a  

Whole memory program about that it’s called how to  remember any English word uh but it it basically   it uses your brain the way your brain wants  to memorize information the basic idea is that   instead of trying to force yourself to remember  things or to use translation you need to create  

Categories in your mind uh and you can have an  infinite theoretically like an infinite number of   those things so if we have uh if you already have  the word computer in your mind like as an example   in your native language then you would think of  a laptop computer or a desktop computer something  

Like that so this is what businesses do when they  create a new category of something and then their   product becomes the first or number one uh product  in that category just because they created a new   category and that becomes more memorable so  you might have 10 different companies that  

Are selling computers but you remember the company  that’s selling the first desktop computer or the   first tablet computer or whatever uh let’s see  Mom said okay I got that one already what about   nickels like the money like coins uh I don’t know  if there’s a word a specific word for Nick but you  

Can Google that just see it like look up slang  for money or or coins or change or whatever all   right uh demin says example what about worst shop  in your city the worst shop in my city the worst  

Shop in my city I don’t even know how I would  talk about that all right but I’ll I’ll I’ll kind   of explain what I’m thinking uh the way I would  normally speak so this is how I normally speak  

English if I’m talking with a friend of mine uh so  somebody asked me about what’s like my what’s like   the worst shop in Nagasaki but I don’t even know  what that would mean like what is what is like  

The worst shop like how do you like worst in terms  of what wor worst in terms of quality or selection   or like bad service I don’t know that’s an  interesting question I never really thought about  

That before I also don’t really have like I guess  a favorite shop you know I might uh I might pop   into like a couple different places but I don’t uh  I don’t know it kind of depends on the mood I’m in  

I’m trying to think if I had like a bad I don’t  know like most of the places I go to it’s like   actually a pretty good experience for places um  yeah I can’t say that I have uh yeah it’s actually  

Interesting I can’t I can’t even like speak  about it as fast as I normally would because I   don’t have a clear idea of what that would be does  that make sense so I’m not uh I don’t know if I’m  

Trying to think about what would be the worst shop  in Nagasaki I don’t know that’s an interesting   question though so here I was speaking a little  bit faster uh but not using I don’t know so much  

I don’t know like I said like Poppy into um but  yeah not not so much in like slang or adms that   kind of thing uh but that’s typically how I would  be speaking with people all right uh do you guys  

Use a grand for a thousand yes we do so that’ll  be like five grand or 10 grand 5,000 uh hello   teacher I have a pronunciation question it’s the  same pronunciation as dying and dying what about   the meaning was different ah yes you mean like  dying like like dying but also dying your hair  

Yes that’s the same pronunciation if you’d like  to learn more about that again get let me put Frederick just click on the link in  the description below this video to   learn more about that so Frederick will teach  you all about pronunciation you can listen to  

The difference between words or here how  they’re similar or exactly the same but   maybe have a different spelling it’s got  over 2,000 words and sentences in the app   Suzanne says no why Chinese and Japanese  are awesome and give a lot of information

Uh let’s see Santa says I’m totally confused  when the verbs be Ben being not am is are uh   let’s see do you have any special lessons on that  yeah watch watch my beginning I think it’s called  

The best beginning English grammar playlist uh on  our channel so just go to like search grammar and   you will find that just look at the playlists  that I have on the channel and you will find uh  

Examples of all that so this is where I take uh  people who know no English uh and I and I teach   them all like English all in English and there  it’s organized uh by difficulty but we cover like  

All those different grammar points there uh let’s  see also Frederick will help you learn uh grammar   as well xdl let me imitate my English teacher  hi everyone today we are going to talk about   blah blah blah then switch to Chinese can anyone  translate this sense in English well amazing yeah  

That’s pretty typical uh rapael says Japanese  doesn’t even cross my mind it’s very difficult   how long does it take to learn the basics of  Japanese or Chinese um I know there are people   that say languages like some languages are are  difficult and other languages are not difficult  

But uh I I would disagree just by looking at  children learning languages so like little kids   in Japan they learn they’re they learn to speak at  the same rate as little kids in the United States  

So if I look at my daughter in Japan or both of  them and my sister’s kids in the United States   learning English like you wouldn’t say that one  language is more difficult than the other the only   difficult thing is how people teach it and often  people teach badly in regular schools like xdl  

Is talking about and so when if you’re learning a  language as a second language which is what people   typically do then yes like it’s really difficult  for you to try to learn uh something through your   language already so I gave the example before  about these different categories in your mind um  

And that’s for so I talk about that like that’s  influent for life and in our memory training so the way your the way your mind works is you  have uh you can think about it so this is your  

Brain here you have different spaces in your  mind and you can you can create new spaces uh   but when you have something in a space already  like the word computer so let’s say like the   company IBM makes the first computer just as an  example so IBM makes computer so when you think  

Of the word computer you think of IBM because  IBM created this idea so before there was no   there was like you had no idea about computer  IBM the company creates a computer and they   also create in your mind the idea of something  called a computer and they create the idea and  

They fill that idea with themselves their their  product their their thing of a computer all right   and so another company let’s say they also like  this is we’ll just call this like BCD company uh   and they also make a computer and if they have uh  they’ve done nothing different it’s just another  

Compter computer they’re trying to get into  your into that space in your mind where where   the idea of computer is but they can’t because  it’s already filled by computer from IBM so you   can’t you can’t try to like remember it and if  instead of thinking about these as companies you  

Can think about them as different languages so  if you learn the word computer in English and   then you try to learn the word for computer in  a different language like there’s already like   a a space for that and that’s what makes it more  difficult for people to try to just force yourself  

To remember some information like that but if  BCD company or something or or like in Japanese   you learn it or whatever your language is if you  learn something in a different language and you   create a new category for that thing you can  fill that like a laptop a laptop computer so  

Instead of a like this kind of computer like IBM  would make a Mainframe computer so you see those   big boxes in a room IBM makes that but then this  other company makes oh here’s a laptop computer   and now you can fit the word computer into  your brain and it’s connected with this idea  

Of a laptop computer so that will enable you to  learn and remember that word so instead of trying   to force you don’t want to force words into it’s  like a like a car and a parking space so there’s  

Already a car parked here you need to find an  open space or create an open Space by creating   a new category of thing and so that’s what I teach  people to do in that memory training uh but anyway  

Uh so when you’re you’re learning new words like  this uh it’s important to to think about how we   can how we can fit things in and remember things  by categories uh rather than trying to translate

Them okay let me see here hopefully that makes  sense all right uh anyway so the the point the   point about that I kind of lost track there but  the point is that uh in my estimation as far as  

I’m concerned I don’t see any language it’s more  difficult than any other because kids all learn   them at the same rate and so if I’m in Japan  learning English or Japan learning Chinese or   Japan learning whatever um if I’m learning it as a  first language then I should like realistically be  

Learning it at the same rate it’s not like Chinese  should take 10 years but French would take 5 years   now the the difference the only difference like  when people talk about what’s what’s different or   difficult uh is if if there’s something already  about the language that you already know so if  

You’re trying to learn an additional language like  so me as a native English speaker if I’m trying to   learn French or Spanish those languages should  be easier for me because I already know some of   the words or maybe the grammar construction uh  Works more similar to uh to how I already think  

In English so in that case like the language is  easier but it shouldn’t really matter if you’re   teaching someone as a first language so if I learn  like if I know the word computer uh in in English  

Then if I hear like computadora or whatever uh  I think that’s the Spanish word computadora um   if it’s not pardon me I’m not a Spanish teacher  but the point is like if I hear something and I   hear the same word but it’s slightly different  or the pronunciation is a little bit different  

That I would probably be able to understand that  thing but it would be it would be more difficult   for me as a native English speaker to try to learn  Chinese through English so that that’s the where   I’m I want people to understand there’s nothing  difficult about Chinese by itself like any more  

Than like English is difficult like CU children  learn both of those languages at the same rate   so if someone could tell me there is a language  where kids don’t learn to speak until they’re 10   years old then that would change my mind but other  than that I’ve not seen that example uh computador  

In Portuguese and computor in Spanish okay I was  correct glad to hear it computor yeah I like the   way that sounds like Univision I like that like  the like in English we would say like Univision  

But it sounds so much it’s more fun in Spanish  Univision uh let’s see all right Juan says hello   from Tennessee so from Dubai let’s see if I got  all those all right uh let’s see de trein trein   that’s an interesting name I love learning English  with Native teacher hello from Indonesia nice to  

See you there uh Bob says I’ve been studying  English on Dual lingo for two months now I   feel that my comprehension and pronunciation have  improved significally glad to hear it uh hopefully   that prepares you let’s see Anonymous says hello  Susan almost died by hitting my head against a  

Door due to uh a sickness that’s interesting uh  Venus says hello D have a friend who is interested   in learning English he’s a beginner and can’t  understand much what’s your advice for him uh   he’s having trouble once he doesn’t know enough  vocabulary I would give him Frederick tell him  

To tell him to download the app get Frederick he  can start he will he will teach himself English in   English the same way a native would uh and also to  watch my beginning English grammar play playlist  

I think actually a lot of adult like Learners who  know a a lot of English often they will have uh a   good vocabulary but they will still make basic  mistakes and so they will have especially with   basic grammar or something like people still ask  me questions about basic grammar uh prepositions  

When do they use something and it’s because people  have not had enough examples of things that they   don’t really feel very confident about that so  they’re trying to think about a rule rather than   get an example of something and then or try  to understand when people use something and  

Then get lots of examples of that thing uh  we request you to prepare lectures poems and   more vocabulary is PDF all right well I request  you to get uh fluent for life because all that   stuff is in there uh there’s no poetry in that  but uh you will find everything else there uh  

You can find that in the link in the description  below this video one says I’m curious about why   sometimes ‘ sounds like d and sometimes du yeah  it depends on the situation and and this is what  

You learn about uh about pronunciation so i’ I’ve  given this example before the the planet PL and I   can’t write and talk at the same time planet of  the AP so this movie or the book or whatever the  

Planet of the Apes so this is the same word the  and the the Planet of the Apes the Planet of the   Apes why do we do that because the way the words  are connected here this is the important thing  

Not just the word by itself but how the words are  connected and Blended together so if we say the   planet the planet the Planet of the Apes often  we say the when when we like something is very   important but typically the especially like the  the planet the planet the planet it’s nice and  

Easy easy to say the Planet of the Apes the Apes  so if I say the Apes the Apes the Apes is more   difficult to say the Apes it’s like VES so we say  the Apes the Apes all right so again rather than  

Trying to learn what is the correct thing uh you  get lots of examples and you hear how that works   okay the Planet of the Apes the Planet of the Apes  and remember that not every will pronounce things  

The same way and I talked about this in my video  recent video about imprinting imprinting so when   people are learning a new language and they get  one example from someone about a word or phrase   uh they might not or they might feel that that’s  the way everybody does it when that’s just one  

Person’s way of doing something so I gave an  example in that video of me going to a uh it   was like a Japanese funeral kind of like a funeral  service um and there were two candles on a table  

And some people were using the top candle to light  some incense and some people were using the bottom   candle and I didn’t know what the reason for that  was like why they have two candles or what that  

Represents uh and there are lots of situations  like that where as we get more information we   feel more confident about something so if someone  told me oh the top candle is for family and the  

Bottom candle is for not family it’s like oh okay  I got it now but until I get that like some kind   of explanation or something where I comprehend  where I really understand I completely understand   what something is then I won’t feel confident  talking about it so I couldn’t I wouldn’t feel  

Confident explaining to someone hey this is  how you light the incense at this you know   at the funeral service because like it’s not I  I don’t I don’t I I I can’t feel like certain   about that and so often uh people struggle  to speak because they just don’t feel feel  

Confident and certain about their vocabulary and  it’s really not your fault if you feel that way   it’s just mostly people are learning uh English as  a second language and that’s why they struggle to speak uh let’s see oh no I got to I got  to sneeze again we’ll see if it comes

Back uh let’s see Juan says all right I think  I answered that one but yeah it just remember   the the word by itself might might uh the  pronunciation of a word will probably change   depending on the other words around it so I call  this the the one rule for pronunciation we talk  

About this and speak like me uh what’s the best  TV show to improve English uh just something   you’re interested in with examples of native  speech whatever that is so you could watch some   people like learning about Home Improvement or  some people like watching a comedy show it just  

Depends on what you’re interested in watch  whatever you like Santos says I know nothing   and I do not know anything are the same but  I ain’t know nothing meaning well that’s say   I I ain’t know nothing like even yeah I ain’t no  yeah it’s it’s a an incorrect way of saying you  

Don’t know like anything at all I like I ain’t  so I ain’t is not correct English but people   will use that I’m says what city of us of us do  you live sir I live in Nagasaki Japan I am from  

Uh Chicago in the United States though but I  don’t live there currently Victor teacher is   it possible for you to explain to us what is the  difference between the structures it’s been a long   time since and it had been a long time since  well you’re talking about like two periods of

Time so if I’m if I’m and I I covered this in a  couple of different videos uh it’s also covered   in fluent for Life uh but in general if this  is now uh what were your examples like it it  

Has been a long time let’s see uh it’s been  a long time since and it had been a long time   since yeah so if we’re talking about like it has  been we’re talking about until now so it has been  

So it has been a long time like we’re still  uh continuing to do something so we’re we’re   talking about from some period in the past uh and  connecting that with now so uh it has been a long  

Time since I I played tennis so here on this day  I played tennis I played tennis uh but I have not   played tennis this whole time so I have not so it  has been a long time or it has been a while since  

I did something it has been a while since I did  something but if you’re talking about in the past   like it had been a while since I did something  but then like some other we’re we’re talking  

About other other points of time in the past all  right so not one point of time in the past with   right now so if I if I had done something in the  past like uh from this point until this point so  

Let’s say I’m 3 years old here and then I’m 10  years old over here I did another video about   this I think if you look for the video I made  about have and I’m talking about like playing  

Mario or something that was a few months ago um  but it’s the same idea so uh I I did something   from this time until this time so maybe like  until until this point like I had not done it  

I had not but then like at this point I had done  that thing all right so I had not and then I had   done that thing but rather than cover that same  information again go watch that video okay but  

That’s the basic idea so are we talking about  something in the past or we talking about like   something in the past connected with now that’s  the different and so rather than trying to think   about it logically just get lots of examples of  people talking about that so a good way to do that  

Would be like watching people talk about I don’t  know like their childhood or something so I had   like I was uh I was 2 years old when I started  playing the piano um and so I I had played the  

Piano for like five years or something uh but let  me let me not confuse you with more because you   can go get just watch that video about have uh  I don’t remember the exact name of it but uh you  

Should be able to find that and I also maybe had  a short uh video about that too uh let’s see all   right times is the best show to improve English  says teacher Jews classes well uh my you you you  

Should think about my class as like part of a  complete breakfast this is a phrase if you’re   living in the United States you’ve probably heard  that before it’s part of a complete breakfast so   part of a complete breakfast means like you know  they’re selling you cereal but you should also  

Have you know some other things with that and  so even in fluent for life like fluent for life   is not just a bunch of classes of me telling you  things uh you actually get to see natives having  

A real conversation so lots of conversations and  then you hear lots of different examples of how   other people would speak so I know I can’t be the  only one to teach you I have to have other people  

There that also prepare you for or the other  language you will hear so you will hear people   with different accents you need to hear things  at different times different kinds of speakers   so as you get uh all that information I’m part of  that so I’m helping you understand things that’s  

Really the best thing I can do I know how to teach  people well and make things understandable make   the language comprehensible uh and then you get  lots more examples to really help you understand   and feel confident about things from other people  Neil says do you have how many siblings do you  

Have I have two I have an older half sister and a  younger sister uh are there more examples of the   word computer in the city in the city what do  you mean in the city let me know what you mean  

Mocking I don’t know what you mean I don’t know  if you’re if you’re telling a joke or something   like that let me know though MOA says hi thank you  uh for I think I thank you you could say thanks so  

Thanks a lot uh and help us to understand English  is my pleasure all right a says my English was cut   off for a little while oh no I feel lost when the  internet goes out yeah I know I know how you feel  

I know how you feel I think I need to immigrate  to a country where the internet does not cut   out yeah all right you should speak Spanish  too well uh if someone can teach me Spanish  

The way I teach English I’m happy to learn all  right can someone explain to me uh IBM he talked   about in the video well that it’s the the basic  idea about that is that if you have a a company  

Will make a a product uh but the product if you  want that product to be successful you should   really be creating a new company so if I have  like a even simpler idea would be uh like red

Wine so let’s say the first company to make like  a Vineyard the first company to make red wine like   wow they sell a lot of red wine so they created  the idea of red wine and also a product for that  

Idea so other companies they try to copy that  thing they say oh we are going to make some red   wine too we also have uh like red grapes and we  can make some or you know however you make red  

Wine uh so other companies will try to make red  wine as well and you’ll get more bottles of things   uh but now it’s it’s harder for these companies  to compete because this is the number one the  

First red line I don’t know what that actually  is but just as an example so if you’re trying   to get people to remember red wine or something  like that um you want to create the category of  

That so another Wine Company it would be smarter  unless they can make like I don’t know like a new   kind of red wine or something like that you would  want to make a different kind of wine like a white  

Wine or I don’t know a black wine or what I don’t  know what different kinds of wines there are I’m   not a wine expert uh but that if I were if I were  working for a wine company that’s what I would do  

I would tell them hey don’t make red wine you  have to make some kind of special other thing   like here’s like we’re going to call it something  different it’s like oh this is a charday or this  

Is a a Mero or this is you know whatever I guess  it’s based on the names of the grapes but the   point is this is how the human mind thinks so the  human mind thinks in terms of categor so we have  

A space and then we have a thing to put in that  category so for the IBM example IBM like people   think of IBM you don’t have like an IBM laptop  they do make laptops but they’re not known for  

That they’re known for mainframe computers and so  if another company tries to make the same kind of   thing it will be more difficult for that company  to succeed instead you should be trying to make   something different so you create a new category  and that works the same way for language learning  

And meming uh remembering uh words so that’s  what I teach in how to remember any English   word and I’ll show you how to do that uh let’s  yeah uh let’s say Planet D offen oh is that is  

That the name that’s the German name of it I like  that the German it’s like the planet de offen you   know it’s like it’s like a cool sounding a cool  sounding name you know what’s funny is actually  

Seeing uh uh I like there’s a friend of mine out  here uh and we would talk about this movie Saw   so so it was a like a horror movie called saw  and the the main bad guy in that he says like  

I want to play a game I want to play a game with  you he’s talking he’s he’s going to torture some   people I want to play a game but the Japanese is  very polite it’s like it’s like if you have time  

Like could we think about maybe playing a game  kind of thing so when you get the translation   of something it it changes it uh as well I just  thought of that with that German example but that  

Was that was funny for me uh let’s see Alejandra  says greetings from Mexico nice to see you there   Frederick is it an app for children uh it’s not  just for children but it helps you learn like a  

Child and I’m still I’m still trying to figure  out the best way to explain what Frederick does   because people look at the app and think it’s for  kids but wouldn’t you rather learn like a child  

Then learn like an adult studying a textbook and  then people are like ah okay like I’ll give give   it a try so maybe I need to make Frederick look  more like uh cuz obviously kids use it as well but  

Lots of adults use it too all right lots of good  uh questions and comments here though hopefully   that makes sense but yes if you’d like to learn  more about Frederick you can click on the link uh   in the description below this video Bang says I  don’t feel like studying today yes you shouldn’t  

Feel like studying any day but you really can be  learning like this like I’m the way I’m teaching   you you don’t have to study anything you’re just  listening to my examples and I get you fluent   because I help you understand the language better  and when you understand well you feel confident  

About speaking let’s see G some months ago after  watching your videos I downloaded dual lingo apps   but at the time I saw the learning process in that  app was some kind of TR traditional learning media   uninstalled it yeah like you you can get fluent  with apps but the app doesn’t make you fluent  

It’s can you get enough examples of things uh  and those could come from apps but often they   do not and even if you’re learning something  something from an app the text or app version   of the language is much different than how people  actually speak so you still need to get examples  

Of real people speaking uh to feel confident about  uh understanding those things in real situations   all right uh Sando says I also seen English movies  saying you don’t know nothing yeah you don’t know   nothing is an incorrect way yes so it’s like  it’s we call that a double negative so instead  

Of saying you like like you know you know they’re  saying like you don’t know nothing which means you   kind of know everything it’s a weird way of saying  that but yes this is a a a kind of casual and  

Incorrect way of using the language but if you’re  paying attention to the situation and not just the   vocabulary you can understand it like a native so  like oh man this this guy look at him he’s trying  

To build a bike but he’s got the wheels on top of  the handlebars like he he don’t know nothing about   making bikes he don’t know nothing about that so  I would I would like the correct way is he doesn’t  

Know anything about making bikes but again if you  understand the situation even if you’re hearing   incorrect grammar and you you will hear incorrect  grammar I I used incorrect grammar in this video   did you hear it so there is incorrect grammar  like uh like there’s lots of people who do that  

There’s lots of people who do that it should be  there are lots of people who do that but you will   hear that because it’s faster and easier to say  and people know what I’m talking about of course  

If I’m giving a speech and it’s a professional  thing I would not say that I would not say yeah   there there’s lots of this or whatever I mean you  will even in a professional situation you will  

Hear that but it’s still incorrect English uh yes  Alejandro if you have not tried Frederick as well   give it a try also if you have tried Frederick  and you like it please leave a review go to the  

App Store and please leave a review for us so  more people can find it Don says but how will   someone do that when he doesn’t even know one  single word about the language I mean how will  

I learn as a first one for me I couldn’t apply  this strategy until I became Advanced well uh   you could learn it like you you can learn another  language as a first language if you have someone  

To teach you as a first language or if you’re  you’re getting that input and you know how to   get it in the right order so it’s difficult  just because most people don’t teach that   way but I could give you my regular I’ll give  you my quick Japanese example about this right

Now let’s see here try to do something something  different for you guys here I don’t really have   a lot of stuff in front of me we’ll we we’ll  just do my usual example so I will teach you   some Japanese right quick all right one  two three so I only use Japanese now watch  

Carefully so I’m going to teach you Japanese  as a the first language Mak Maka Maka Maka MAA makao Kuro makoo makaa kudoo AA Kudo Maka Kudo MAA okay that was a very quick lesson in  Japanese as a first language and even if  

You didn’t understand everything I said you  probably had a good idea of like oh look at   that like I understood exactly what you were  talking about okay hopefully people are are   getting it there so the word marker is coming  from English that’s why we use like like the  

The Japanese you would write it like this  like MAA MAA uh like that because it’s not   it’s actually like a borrowed uh foreign  foreign word the MAA so from the English   marker so this uh the the AR sound Mar and the  same thing here that sound that R sound is not  

In Japanese so that’s why they have to put that  into a Japanese sound ah like Ma and this is a   elongation of that so right now I’m even like  kind of going into the language and teaching  

It a bit more than I should be just helping you  understand it as a first language now sometimes   explanations are helpful but really if I can help  you understand something as a first language then  

You get it and you think ah I got it and the like  the most amazing thing you can do as a learner of   something is to discover that thing for yourself  so rather than a teacher just telling you what  

Something means if you figure that out then you  really remember that thing and you think oh wow   now like I I figured out wow Drew was talking  about these different colors over here like  

And because of the way I taught you I was able to  help you understand that in Japanese so I didn’t   say AKA means red I just help you understand like  look at that like Kudo a AKA AKA okay and so you  

Learn your your mind is trying to figure out  the the patterns and understand that without   me telling you what that is okay and that’s when  you become a fluent speaker so you become fluent   when you understand something very well rather  than someone giving you a bunch of explanations  

About things or translations and and trying to  like make it logical for you all right let me   see if anyone else so yes like you you require a  teacher to learn English as a first language or  

Something or if you know how to do that yourself  so you’re correct that like at at at this level   like right now you’re learning English as a  first language uh because I’m teaching you   English as a first language so rather than me  I’m not using Spanish or Portuguese or Thai or  

Anything to teach you the language so at this  level you already have learned a lot but even   if I’m starting to teach you English from the  very beginning like I do in that uh beginning   grammar playlist here on YouTube so if you  go to my channel you can find that beginning  

Grammar playlist and it will show you the first  lesson I do in that is like I eyes ear ears nose ear eye nose mouth finger fingers fingers  fingers so what am I teaching you I’m teaching   you vocabulary and I’m also teaching you that in  English when we have more than one the vocabulary  

Changes isn’t that interesting so I don’t want to  give you a long explanation about like singular   and plural I just want to help you understand  that so my daughters they know like oh like they   understand singular in plural but they don’t know  those words okay so that’s the difference between  

Learning uh a language as a first language  and learning it uh really through every other   method uh let’s see mammad says there are 12  tenses in English explain for us next period   no so PE people go looking there are plenty of  videos on YouTube that will just like give you  

Explanations of grammar but that’s not how you  learn you could go get a textbook that it tells   you every tense in English and it’s like okay  here’s the list of rules for all those things   but is that getting you fluent in the language  after reading that textbook or watching that  

Video on YouTube do you feel more confident and  fluent about using the language for most people   the answer is no uh and that’s because just uh  helping you like understand something logically   doesn’t really help you feel confident that you  you really truly understand something all right  

Victor perfect uh I was in a voice room yesterday  and it’s been a while since I didn’t uh since I   hadn’t been in one I got confused about which  one to say properly thank you once again uh  

Let’s see Suzanne over there with the looks like  confused faces I’m guessing Hey sir says toen I   was thinking about downloading Freddy from my  14-year-old son but the he just plays his games   all the time and his English is good what should  I do so he could focus on the English language  

Just like let him let him play games with English  then or watch movies or whatever with some English   in it uh let’s see thank you for or thank you  teacher for the wonderful explanation says Rafa  

My pleasure all right am I CH I too late finally  heard the red wine yes we we’ve been going for   80 minutes so far but you can always go back and  watch the replays of these uh and that will help  

You understand Alejandra says I understand English  a lot and I can speak it with uh other us friends   on a basic level but I think I’m I think I need  more vocabulary since I’m not fluent in a way to  

Keep constantly talking like you drew uh so you  think you need more VOC ulary but what I keep   telling people is that you don’t need to know  more you just need to know the vocabulary you  

Already know much better so you need to know you  need to be fluent in the vocabulary you already know and this is one of the big problems people  have with language learning is they they think  

They need to know more words to get fluent so the  idea they have is like uh let’s just put this as   like number of of words I know so you know zero  words and we’ll put this at I don’t know 10,000  

Words 10,000 words so each time you got all these  words up here going all the way to 10,000 and so   if let’s say you know uh I don’t know 400 words  and if you can’t speak fluently here so this is  

Let’s say your ability to like actually speak is  it should be up here like this is your uh fluency   level so this is your vocabulary and this is your  ability to speak so you should be learning like  

This so a native speaker will learn this way as  they continue to learn more their overall fluency   is increasing but what if you look closely what’s  happening is they’re getting fluent in individual   words and phrases so they actually it’s like each  of these things uh like they’re they have the abil  

Ability to use the vocabulary fluently so I  talked in my my previous video from last week   about the different levels of understanding so  we have exposure awareness and ownership up here   where you really feel confident that you know  something and this works for individual words  

And phrases so you can be fluent in one thing but  not fluent in something else you can be good at   talking about your work but not be good about  talking about things outside of work all right  

And this is because you get fluent in individual  words and phrases so what a lot of people think is   that okay I need to keep learning more words and  at some point like you know 800 words or a th000  

Words or 5,000 words whatever that number is you  think at that point ding now I become fluent but   it doesn’t work that way because you need to  get fluent in individual words and phrases if   you don’t if you can’t say this fluently then it  doesn’t matter how many words you know you will  

Still not be fluent in this word over here so  you have to get fluent in each of these things   individually as you learn them and this is why you  don’t need to learn more words to become fluent  

Speaker if you can understand what I’m saying  right now you already know a lot of words you   just need to become fluent in that vocabulary and  you become fluent by understanding those things as   a first language so you really understand them  very well a lot of people like they they know  

It you know they maybe like they’ve been exposed  to that word or they recognize it but they don’t   have that that that highest level of confidence  and fluency that really gets them to to the the   confidence they need uh to speak and so you you  you’re not waiting for a particular word count  

You can be fluent like like I just taught you you  know a couple of words in Japanese if we reviewed   that a few times you would become fluent in those  few words and then I just continue building on  

That until you get fluent in more things that’s  how you get fluent okay let’s see what time it   is all right we’re still all right but this is  the uh the basic idea of how you get fluent so  

You’re not trying to learn more words you just  want to get fluent in the things that you learn   and that’s why little kids so little children can  have a small vocabulary but still speak fluently   but adults can have a large vocabulary but not  speak fluently because it doesn’t matter how  

Many words you know the number of words you know  doesn’t mean anything it’s just how fluent are you   in the vocabulary that you have so you could have  a small vocabulary but know it well or you could  

Have a big vocabulary and not you not know it well  that’s why a lot of people a lot of Learners can   understand what I’m saying but they don’t have  the confidence to speak the way I do but it’s  

Not about their uh their vocabulary it’s just do  they understand the vocabulary and do they really   feel confident about using it or not so again  you got these different levels of understanding   here so you can know something but do you really  know it do you really feel confident about saying  

Something and if you’re in a conversation and you  understand but you wouldn’t feel confident saying   that thing you can tell where your your level of  understanding is okay so don’t worry about trying   to learn more just get better at the things that  you are already learning uh let’s see here if I  

Got okay I got that one all M says in Japanese we  can make a sentence without subject so my husband   told me that I must use subject 5w is important  yes so I I’m guessing uh Mika if you were married  

To a foreigner or maybe not but yes uh it’s like  like in Japanese I could just say likeu like go   but if we would mean like I am going somewhere  like uh it’s we call that a like a d contextual  

Or contextual language so very like English we we  have to say like I’m going so even if everybody   knows I’m going I still say it’s me who is going  that’s part of how English works but in Japanese  

It’s like you just understand the context of the  situation like IU IU it’s like are you going yes   I’m going too uh but yeah so if you you have  to change like that that understanding but   you develop that like rather than thinking about  it logically uh it’s it’s kind of the emotional  

Connection you get from looking at situations and  and paying attention to what people say so like   my my girls uh my two daughters when they’re  speaking English or Japanese they switch from   saying like like I will do this like they talk  about themselves in the third person like like  

Arya will do this well they they would say that  say it that way in Japanese like like I like but   in in English they learn to say like I will do  this instead of using their name like that uh  

Drop a like and unlock the subs subscribe button  yeah I know YouTube makes it really hard you have   to like click a bell and and call somebody and do  lots of things to get a uh like get a subscriber  

Over I don’t know why they make it so difficult uh  thank you teacher uh Frederick glad to hear it uh   just drop yeah uh so OE marker yeah so if we’re  if we’re writing that in English uh it would be  

Like like uh II so this a by itself is blue and I  becomes like if we’re attaching that to something   so Al just the color and AI car if I were to use  it in English like that uh let’s see German is  

Confusing in this case ears is spoken like ears  that means yours yep yep Rafael says sometimes   it is hard to understand news in English yeah  a lot of that uh is because people don’t know   the vocabulary uh because they they’re using  some technical vocabulary that people aren’t  

Used to hello teacher I’m here watching your live  uh from Brazil actually watched there’s a a good   video of uh maybe you can find it but it’s a  it’s a a reporter so he’s doing the kind of  

News voice uh and he’s like so I I just saw this  video today but I’m sure you could find it on on   uh YouTube If you look up like news reporter  gets a like a bug in his mouth or something  

So he’s like hello and welcome to this uh he’s  speaking kind of like a news reporter and then   a fly or something gets in his mind he’s like  God damn it man I can fly in my mouth and he  

Starts like it’s it’s a perfect uh like contrast  between the professional reporter English and   the everyday speaking English you could see both  of those things uh let’s see here uh it then if if I’m pronouncing Mart BR yeah it sounds like is that  are you from uh from Brazil let’s see yeah okay  

You are watching from Brazil whenever I see like  a bunch of names I either think like Brazil or   the Philippines tamur nice to see you there hi  let’s see Santos watched your daughter videos   teaching phrasal verbs is a correct sentence or  watched your daughter and your teaching oh you  

Can say I well they’re different ways to say it  it’s not like just one correct sentence but you   could say I watched a video of you teaching your  daughter or teaching your daughters I watched a  

Video of that or I watched a video of let’s see  like your daughters being taught you could also   say that there different ways so I I saw a video  of you with your daughters teaching phrasal verbs   there are different ways you could say it B  I’ve just played Frederick your ab is awesome  

Glad to hear it please leave us a review go to  the App Store and please leave us a review all   right cozy B gives us a thumbs up hi teacher says  jungle stories let’s see how to know uh idioms and  

Phrasal verbs while watching a TV show or movie  Sometimes I confuse about how to know idioms and   phrasal verbs well I I wouldn’t I wouldn’t worry  like if you ask a native speaker what is the idiom  

And what is a phrasal verb they would probably  not be able to tell you that because they’re not   thinking about the vocabulary in that way they’re  just thinking is like uh how what is what is the   situation and what vocabulary do we use for that  but they probably wouldn’t know the name phrasal  

Verb or or idiom like some a lot of natives  would know the word idiom but not many would   know phrasal verb but you you can recognize  the patterns for those and idiom is just some   vocabulary like kick the bucket where it means  to die but like the words don’t like have a an  

Obvious connection that people would understand  uh and a phrasal verb is typically something like   uh like to spin out or to to stand up where  we have a verb and a preposition uh but again  

Natives would not be explaining it to you that way  so don’t your your goal is not to find idioms or   phrasal verbs your goal is to understand uh what  something what something means and understand it   like a native if you want to use it fluently all  right Alejandra says I understand your explanation  

About not needing to learn too much vocabulary to  gain fluency but uh how don’t get too repetitive   on words like speaking English well you I mean  you you will you will begin to expand my to to  

Contrast with this where people think they need  to just keep learning more and more words to get   fluent what I’m suggesting uh is you begin like  a like a small unit of whatever this vocabulary   is and you become very very confident because you  know that vocabulary so well because you’ve heard  

It in different ways from different people you  know how to use it and then you begin expanding   on that vocabulary as you become more comfortable  but my point is that a lot of people are trying   to learn more before they actually feel very  confident and comfortable about about whatever  

That basic vocabulary is so it could be basic or  it could be more advanced but the point is people   are learning things that they don’t really feel  confident about using so if you learn something   but you don’t really feel confident about using  it then you’re kind of wasting your time you will  

Understand but if you want to speak you should  know that vocabulary very well so as you learn   more then you can uh begin expanding into other  things and what happens is that you will find   like an example of a word or phrase and then  you’re you’re still connecting this word or  

Phrase just like this so you learn something you  learn a new a new phrase like what’s something we   learned today um what did I say oh getting the  hang of it so you’re getting the hang of it so  

You learn oh I’m getting the hang of it means uh  like I’m understanding something well I’m doing   it better I’m performing better and I use it when  I’m doing something better so if I’m learning how  

To give a presentation or I’m uh I don’t know I’m  trying to like ride a bike or something like that   oh I’m getting the hang of it I’m learning to do  something better so so I have the vocabulary and  

I know when I’m using it so I’ve I’ve understood  that vocabulary and I can use it but also I might   hear someone else describe that same situation  in a different way and that’s how I expand my  

Vocabulary so an example for me in Japanese like  uh or even at at like the just an English example   uh so I was talking with my accountant out here  who is Japanese and I’ll give you the English  

Version of this story uh but she said oh like uh  when shall we meet and shall we meet uh like at   the at like the head of the month so we don’t  say the head of the month in English or I’ve  

Not really heard people using that we would  say at like the top of the month or like at   the beginning of the month or the start of the  month um so if you’re looking at a calendar so  

She was saying like oh it’s like the head of the  month like the first maybe the first week of the   month all right and so I learned like in English  someone might say oh let’s meet at like the start  

Of the month or someone else says let’s meet at  the beginning of the month or someone else says   let’s meet early in the month and here it’s like  oh because I understand what they’re talking about   they’re using different vocabulary to describe  the same situation okay they’re learning uh and  

This is how you will expand your vocabulary as  well so don’t be uh too eager just to learn more   vocabulary if you if your goal is speaking so  you will if you start doing this I promise your   vocabulary will increase faster over time but  at the beginning you’re still like oh okay I  

Should spend more time with the vocabulary to  really understand it but that’s where you hit   this point here you start to learn like a native  and wow look at that you really get fluent very   fast uh but it takes a little bit more time  at the beginning because you’re spending more  

Time on that vocabulary remember that natives  they take a long time to figure words out when   they’re young but then they start uh reading  it uh or start learning that thing uh and then   they will understand the vocabulary and be able  to use it use it fluently oh look at that there  

Goes Brett nice to see you there see how much  time we have left we got a little bit of time   left if you have any questions Brett let me  know uh and I’ll be here to answer those for  

You XD uh what sir no corns PE here man it  located I’m trans waiter I have no idea what   yeah from Family Guy let’s see pull the pin uh  Santos says the two sentences I’ve given above  

Are correct way of saying or incorrect English  uh I forget what exactly you said but I think I   don’t remember now that was the one asking about  different ways of my like my daughter or me like   let’s see where were those okay I watched your  daughter videos watching phrasal verbs is the  

Correct sense or I watched your daughter and you  teaching phrasal verbs well both of those both of   those would be incorrect like for describing what  like the situation so the better thing is just I   watched a video of you teaching your daughter’s  phrasal verbs or teaching your daughter phrasal

Verbs uh okay oh looks like we’re almost at  the end all right Family Guy never leaves   anyone alone that’s true uh ven says let  your hair grow Drew thanks Drew for your   explanation uh says Alejandro all right  well look at that we got to the end of  

The chat over here well if anybody has any  questions I’ll leave it open for one more   minute as I as I wrap this up that is  a good way uh another example of this here so I’ve given do you understand the situation  I’ve talked for a while I’m explaining something  

Now we are concluding so I can say I like I will  [Music] conclude or I will finish or I will wrap   up to wrap something up so it’s like you can  imagine a present we’ve got a little marker  

Here and now it’s time to go we’re going to wrap  that up we’re going to finish so remember when   you’re trying to learn vocabulary the point is  not to just learn as much as you can you really  

Want to understand that vocabulary well okay you  want to understand that vocabulary uh as much as   possible until you want to learn it until you feel  confident about using it because if you don’t feel   confident about using it then you’re not really  fluent in that vocabulary okay and the point of  

This video was to talk about seeding your mind so  if you’re looking for specific examples as soon as   you start focusing on something you will notice  those examples in the real world especially if   you’re if you’re just getting lots of English  content uh already so maybe you’re watching  

Movies or TV shows or something uh but you will  get examples of the of the kinds of things you   want to know more about you will notice those  things if you tell your brain to focus on that  

Okay all right appreciate your ever says xdl  let’s see uh you should make a video with your   daughter again yeah maybe I’ll do that aleandra  says could you please explain the various uses  

Of wrapup well the in this in this uh usage here  like I might take a sandwich and wrap it it up I   might take a present and wrap it up I might take  uh uh let’s see any kind of physical thing I can  

Wrap up but we can also talk about like I’m using  it here uh to conclude something so it’s like I   begin by opening something up or opening up the  conversation like I’m opening up a present now   we’re going to begin talking about something  and now we are finished it’s time to wrap that  

Thing up to close that and then we will finish the  conversation all right uh let’s see Drew fluency   is the main problem how to improve it alone again  you have to just understand more like a native  

Speaker that’s the whole point of this video so  w watch watch my like the like most recent videos   if you just watch those you will get the idea  of learning English as a first language rather   than trying to learn it through your native  language but that’s how you get fluent even  

By yourself you don’t get fluent by repeating  things to yourself or to other people you get   fluent by understanding the language well because  even if you are with other people even if you have   speaking opportunities if you feel too shy to  speak then you’re not going to say anything so  

Just having people to speak with doesn’t help you  get fluent you have to feel confident because you   know the vocabulary very well and then you can do  that by yourself so after you learn and you feel  

Confident about vocabulary then you speak that’s  how you get fluent uh let’s see where can I learn   modern uh derogatory what does that mean you mean  like cursed words or whatever you just Google that   let’s see uh definitely better than my English  teacher one of the best on YouTube the goat well  

Glad to hear it Don says thank you for explanation  sir I’m going to say hello to Frederick yes please   do and remember leave us a review if you get  Frederick download the uh the app on the link  

Or from the link in the description below this  video M my CH I am from Taiwan you’re a good   teacher when you start your live stream usually I  always miss the most of your stream remember you  

Can go back and just watch the replays of these  so unless you have specific questions you’ll get   the same benefit from the video um but also uh  specific I don’t have specific scheduling but   the next one should be I can’t guarantee it but  probably it should be this Thursday that would be  

I don’t know what day that is um but so right  now it is Monday morning Japan time so Monday   uh or Thursday morning Japan time um uh I will  have that video around the same time so around  

10 a.m. Thursday morning Japan time so around the  same time Kum do you like hash brown potatoes for   breakfast uh yeah sometimes I don’t make those  personally but if they are available I’ll eat   them Sandra says please explain the infinitive and  infinitive infinitive and infinitive difference  

Uh watch my videos on on basic grammar it will  explain all that and help you understand it like   a native remember if I just like explain like oh  this is an infinitive and this is whatever like  

You’re probably not going to remember that thing  very well you need to get many examples uh and   that’s more than we’re covering in this video  all right thanks for the explanation let’s see   thanks for the explanation everybody’s getting  it all right uh Brett says in case we have not  

Very strong basic understanding of English would  you recommend we dismiss the new fancy vocabulary   uh when we come across influent for life lessons  um I would focus on the specific uh like so Brett   is a member of fluent for life I would focus on  uh the specific vocabulary like I mean it’s not  

Like fancy so much it’s more um the commonly used  but native vocabulary so the kinds of things that   you would find uh in the uh the phrase Builder  and fluency uh and the um yeah so that like th  

Those that vocabulary focus on that so you don’t  there there will obviously be way more new words   and phrases that you will hear but I specifically  chose that vocabulary so in the fluency corner and   uh and phrase Builder videos so that’s the kind  of like Advanced what you would call some fancy  

Vocabulary but spend more time with the grammar so  of like the mistakes that I’ve seen you make like   I would spend more time with the grammar focus  and time traveling but again what like what I’m  

Talking about in this video is uh seeding your  mind with those specific things so at the uh in   the conversation for each of those master class  videos uh there are lots of things that will hit   your brain but I’m specifically preparing you for  certain vocabulary because that’s what I want you  

To focus on for that lesson so it’s not about like  like you could focus on different things like we   could even have a different grammar point we can  make 10 different grammar videos uh that cover   different topics for the same video but uh I’m  specifically focusing on one thing because it’s  

It’s a good idea we get lots of examples of it for  that particular video um so those are the things I   would focus on just like follow follow the program  if there’s anything you don’t get you can go to  

The index uh and that will tell you the specific  grammar Point that’s used in all of the lessons   and think about that so I think your your your  issue is more uh about focusing on basic grammar  

And I I would focus on that first uh but you can  get that from the the index and then go through   those uh lesson sets that cover that information  uh let’s see a receiver would like to talk in real  

Life well you got lots of people to talk with you  can find people all over the place ELO nice to see   there I’m a silent spectator while you’re speaking  now let’s see claudo says hello uh could I use the  

Word how could I use the word endurance endurance  just refers to like your power or your ability to   continue doing something so me I’ve been speaking  for 100 minutes so I have I have endurance for  

Like 100 minutes but now now I’m getting tired my  endurance is is like weakening over here but so   that’s you’re talking about enduring something to  be able to continue doing that thing uh let’s see   Jungle Story drew our tens is important to learn  first or start speaking English well yes the the  

The point is to be correct to communicate  correctly because when we speak with people   we have information we’re trying to give to  that person or that information we’re getting   from somebody else so being correct is the most  important thing if you say the wrong thing like  

You you say oh I need 10t of of string but you  say oh I need uh I don’t know 10 MERS or something   that’s way different that’s like three times the  length of string and so we want to communicate  

Correctly and being correct is the important  thing um and and if you if if you’re thinking   about like well do I need to learn like grammar or  pronunciation or something like that like all of  

These things are actually together in the language  when you learn the right way uh so I would just I   would pay pay attention more for the particular  things that you struggle with or anything that   you want to say but you don’t feel confident  about that so start there and then that’s an  

Easy way to find something that you want to work  on and then like what I explained in this video   today where you are focusing on the particular  things you’re interested in so whatever grammar   point or vocabulary you will start seeing more  examples of that naturally appear in your life

Uh thank you for thank you in advance thanks  for the great class thanks for this phenomenal   you would say phenomenal phenomenal live true  you can wrap up the class you must be tired   we appreciate your effort alandre says Peppa  Pig is a very good program learn uh the real  

Nice and basic English for those who begin this  journey yeah and they’re actually uh like kid   shows like that for uh adults also have a lot  of good vocabulary uh remitance say say hi DJ   do you have any tips on how to differentiate the  main words in a quick native conversation when  

He puts the words together quickly I would just  I would pay more attention to different I would   get a lot more examples of that this is what  we do in fluent for life so we want to give you   lots of examples of native speakers speaking  quickly and using more advanced vocabulary so  

If you prepare for that then you will be  prepared for it in real life Olympia says   amazing teacher understand you very much glad to  hear okay and MBO I have a problem understanding   English phrasal verbs what do you recommend  uh I recommend get my visual guide to phrasal  

Verbs and that will teach you how to understand  phrasal verbs like a native speaker so again the   the answer to almost every question is how do  I how do I understand something like a native  

So you have to learn English as a first language  if you want to use it as a first language and if   you’d like to do that you can click on the link  in the description below this video uh to get  

More information about fluent for life let’s  see and Olympia says please don’t forget the water he has very delicious over here thank  you very much you don’t need to react to   everything all right Al says good advice yes  uh and SOS says me being software developer  

I don’t face issues in meeting and explaining  my codes but feel blank and instructing kid on   playing badminton and addressing eating to  help me overcome yeah so again you have to   learn English like a native but uh if you watch  a couple of my videos like the recent ones I  

Will be talking basically about this same idea  but from different perspectives um and this is   also what we do influent for life so most of  the things on YouTube it’s trying to explain   to people the principle of learning English as  a first language if you want to become fluent  

And then the step-by-step training if you  don’t want to do this yourself is influent   for Life anyway it looks like we’re at the  end of the comments which is awesome because   I’m getting tired getting hungry uh but have  a fantastic day thank you all for joining me  

I should be here next uh or this coming Thursday  3 days from now I’ll see you in the next video
