Thank you for your comment and positive feedback.
Thank You!
Thank you for your positive feedback.
I am British, always lived in the UK and have always pronounced this as four syllables. I have not been influenced by AmE pronunciation as far as i know
Thank you for your helpful comment. Yes, I also normally pronounce the word with four syllables. However, after research, it seems the four syllable version is an American pronunciation. See here: www.thefreedictionary.com/secretary
Thank you so much
Thank you Maria for your comment and positive feedback.
😊😊😊
Thank you for your positive feedback.
0:18 The very model of a modern major general would like to disagree.
Thank you for your comment. The video is in line with modern audio dictionaries. e.g. www.thefreedictionary.com/vegetable
Nice 😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you for your positive feedback.
It is so helpful for us.
Thank you Faraz for your positive feedback.
I can speak but my accent isn't as like as yours . Some sounds i prounce differently. And a little mistake i make when i encounter new word. So should I try advance video after 2 and 3 time practising on intermediate or for these little mistakes I will have to practise intermediate Please give me solution 🤕
Thank you for your comment. If you are able to keep up with the pace after two or three repetitions, I would suggest moving to the advanced version. Be sure to increase the volume so the speaker's voice is loud and clear. With a number of repetitions, your voice should start to synchronize with the teacher's voice.
Dear sir write size is so small,if possible then review about it.
Hello Faraz Khan: Thank you for your comment. I use font size 24 which is quite large. I can't really make it larger. You can change the video to full screen and this will increase the size of the text. Just click on the icon in the bottom right corner of the video to make it full screen.
You are great English professor! Your grey hair tell us your experience and dedication.
Thank you Faraz for your positive feedback.
@@DavidFJamesVB dear sir if you are in USA then I have tell you about an important business. As you know many Americans have set their business as out sources in different Asian countries. We can also do the same thing there is not required of much investment. On you your behalf I will run here and you will be rightfull owner that business. If you think my Idea will work then I will tell the low investment business.
My clapingo teacher suggested me this method hope this will fruitful for me , I will give my best😊 Thank you Sir
Thank you for your feedback. This method has helped many students. You need to repeat many times and you will begin to see and feel the difference in your fluency and confidence. If the speed is too fast, switch to the Intermediate version in the playlist.
@@DavidFJamesVB yes sir I will do as same as you suggested and I will give my feedback to you in July 🙂 I wish this two months fruitful for me
Yes, I hope so too. It will be helpful to receive your feedback. Best wishes with your practice.
It's definition in auditing
Thank you for your comment. Please explain a little more.
Hello how you how is morning
Thank you for your comment. You can say: "How are you this morning?"
❤❤❤
Thank you as always for your feedback.
I learn and memorize collocations through associating each one with a gesture I do, or if not possible, with an image in my mind. I try not to picture the word combination in my head, in order to let the words emanate from the gesture or image. I think this conditions my brain to speak automatically without thinking about the words themselves, which is what speaking fluency is all about. It also better anchors the collocations in my memory so I'm less likely to forget them, as they're associated with physical gestures/images. I do spaced repetition revision of collocations, so that helps as well. Not to mention, I obviously don't translate from my native language to English, translation is the enemy of fluency. There's an online course with the most common words in English, and I'm hesitant to buy it, because they're just random, miscellaneous words, not ready made chunks of language like collocations, which I study under different topics like sports, music etc. So in real life, when I'm conversing with a native speaker about a specific topic, I'll know which collocations to use, instead of sifting through hundreds of ''words'' and try to come up with the right ones to string a sentence together.
Thank you Ahmed for taking the time to explain your method in using collocations. Your comments are very helpful for all students.
❤ woooow stunning ever ❤
Thank you for your positive feedback.
@@DavidFJamesVB appreciate it Sir

1:12 He made a decision not to paint the wall green. Did he make a decision to paint the wall green? He didn't make a decision to paint the Wall green.
