Very amazing video Ronnie :)
Keep it up ^_^
thanks a lot ronnie
i have a question
out of this subject sorry
its i spilling wrong sometime in the letter G
like in this word regret it pronunciation of it G but in anther word like stingy its pronunciation J
In the word stingy – it is “stin-G”, (not J).
please describe about however in writing.I can not distinguish the meaning of however in texts.and when we should put cama(,) after however?
could you help me
Thanks Ronnie for the lesson, but how about the other verbs? Is there a different or not?
And keep going, you’re the most teacher I like, specially when you talk about the slang :)
Most of the other verbs are the same!
Ronnie very useful, but I found you kinda sad, Am I right?…Hope all the best to you, Sérgio.
Thanks, I liked this video. How to ask about time in Canada? In a American English “What time is it?” or like a British English “What’s the time”?
We usually say “What time is it”, but both are understood.
hello ronnie yeah that lesson was really great and useful because the difference now is clear thx so much
Thanks Ronnie, but where is the quiz for this lesson????
Hi Ronnie, very interesting lesson. I pronounce both versions the same way (like a /t/ sound).
I think it’s difficult to distinguish /t/ from /d/, especially at the end of any word. In words like “better” the difference between BrE and AmE, is easier to make out.(/t/ the former, and /d/ the latter). I did learn dreamt is pronounce /dremt/, I thought it was /drimt/. ThX a lot.
Thank you Ronnie for lesson ,,
It is easy.
I want to draw your attention to some video’s that I would like to watch for another teachers that I can’t see the writing on the board really it’s not clear and I can’t read what the teacher are writing
great lesson teacher..i like ur style..
Bravooooooo!
Have a go plz.
A ? mam:what the difference between too n very is,plz????????
cheer up!
Too we only use for negative things. I have too much homework!
Very = positive things! I love you very much!
Hai Ronnie ! Is it TOO uses for negative thing only? Not any special cases like the following sentence:
Ronnie : I love you very much !
FONG : Me too !
Can you explain this? I’m so confused. Thanks a lot Ronnie!
Sincerely,
Fong
Hi, I think in your case:
Ronnie : I love you very much !
FONG : Me too !
The word “too” has another meaning, it isn’t similar as “very”. “Me too” = “So do I” = “I do too”, it means that you have the same thinking of the person who you’re taking with.
Hi there,
U know that’s sth else,,
Too at the end of the sentence means also,it’s not related 2 positive or negative things!
In “me too” there’s no adjective after too,bcoz it’s sth totally different.
Hope u got!
Its very helpful.
i would like to learn how to write bussiness ropot in english what words do we mostly use
Hi,
Do u know which english is taught in India???
No – but I would guess that it is British!
Can anybody help me with this?
what kind of tense is this question?
What is going to have been being done?
That is not a proper sentence.
Could you please help me on how to use following type of expressions..
Had it been done in India, the result would have been completely chnanged
Regards
You have to say If it had been done in India, the result would have been completely changed.
This is a 3rd conditional sentence.

Hi Ronnie
I like you
I just want you to know that I’m from Carapicuiba – SP, Brazil
See you next time
helpful freakin’ lesson, u r a pretty good teacher. no doubt about it. cya Ronnie.
I must confess that I prefer the American version. It´s much easier to learn regular verbs conjugation in the past.
Yes, indeed, I agree with you.
thnks Ronnie for the lesson

Ronnie, thanks for the lesson, Here in Dominican Republic when something is good we say “Te la comiste”

…………….,,,,,,.
Hello,Ronnie
I would like to ask you a question. you know Ronnie when i am with american military or with marines.some times they are using the word (CHILLAX) well, the question is that. Is this word comes from very famous English books the books could be american or British. or is it created by our this new generation.
Hope you got the question
Have a good time ..
It is created by this new generation! I don’t think it is from a book! It means chillin + relaxing!!!
Hello Madam Ronnie, about CHILLAX, I think it’s a slang word (verb)it means : being relax and stop feeling angry or nervous about something. Please correct me if my proposition is wrong. Please carry on in your teaching method, it’s funny and exciting.
You are correct Chillax = relax + chill out!
Many thanks Ronnie,it was really helpful and interesting,if you don’t mind i think it would be better if you give some lessons about business English,because we really need it in our daily life,thank you again Ronnie.
What about phrasal verbs Ronnie???
Have you ever made some video teachin about it?
No – but search the site for them!
Ok! I will do this! :)

Use an online dictionary to get the definitions of the words!
thank you Rooni
you are the best
i understood too vs also
but if you can make video this will be better
thank you again
Ronnie, just short question. It’s about adjectives and adverbs, which to use in this situation.
“You look stunning”, why don’t we say “You look stunningly”? And one more. “You guys did the job excellent”, or “You guys did the job excellently”?
Try to elucidate this for me please…
Excellently is not a word!
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/stunningly
hi.Mark you should know that you should use adjective in this sentence: “you look stunning” like “amazing” because you’re describing that person. but in second sentence i agree with you.ms.Ronnie you said: excellently is not a word!what’s your mean? excellently is adverb. pls tell us a better reply.thank you.
thank you

Hi..Deb Here From India..Really Awesome Online English Learning Course..I went through the full video..I learned (American English)the difference between the Base/British/American English..Thanks a lot to engvid.com !!!
Hi Ronnie!
I have a personal question for you.
I would like to study alone. I don`t want to go to the academy. I studied at the British academy during 3 months . The Course was very fast and I think I need more time to understand.
I`m feeling confortable with you and Rebbeca classes.
How can I improve my English study with EngVid?
Please tell me the steps that I need to Know, to improve my English.
Thank you.
Keep on watching the videos!
Ronnie,can you explain the difference between “have not”, “have no”, “don’t have”, please?
Have no + noun. (older/British English) I have no eggs.
Have not + verb. I have not gone.
Don’t have + noun. (modern English) I don’t have eggs.
i loove the way you use EGG…
but what should we use “t” pronounciation or “d” pronounciaton well i feel good to learn.
Which ever you choose, but “T” is how it is spelt.
thnx,,,,,…………..
it is fantastic video.
the only thing that comes to my mind whent I see your videos is that you’re amazing. Great job and thanks a lot.
Thank you for lesson
hello ronnie! sorry maybe i missed something , but i’m wondering one thing. you say “north american english” so does it mean that americans from other parts of usa don’t use this vocabulary? ss there anything like “south american english”?
When I say North American I mean USA and Canada. English varies in all states/cities/provinces/areas of North America! To talk about the Southern states in USA, you have to say Southren States!!! The English is very different there!
People in South America speak Spanish/Portuguese. They are all the countries below Mexico!!!
Now i get it! Thank you very much.
I just love the way teach.
I have some questions regarding a topic. This is about the pronunciation of the letter “J”.
***
I just love the way you teach.
I have some questions regarding a topic. This is about the pronunciation of the letter “J”.
What language do you speak? I cannot tell you have to pronounce a letter if I don’t know your native tongue.
BUT>>>>>here is a lesson on saying all the letters in English!
http://www.engvid.com/how-to-pronounce-letters-in-english/
Thanks you so much!
Well I’m from Pakistan where commonly British language rules. I’ll watch your lesson about pronouncing the English letters. Hopefully I’ll get your response again :)
Good luck!
If you have been taught British English it is best to use that pronunciation!
hello ronnie I just like to say that the way you teach its good . so i would like to know that how can i improve my speaking skills
Thank you for being an amazing teacher, im a beginner here and i understund that very well. i thank you so much.
Hello, I’m raymart a Filipino student :) may i ask a question? which one of the two is more correct. ” I haven’t receive your message” or ” I didn’t receive your message” thank you and God bless :)
They are the same.
Thank you, but how about “he’s not here” or “He isn’t here” sorry but im just confused , my prof often used he’s not here, but some used “he isn’t here”
They are the same. “He is not here”, is more formal than He isn’t here!”
Hey Raymart!
Just one correction: I haven’t “received” (if you use the present perfect tense, you must use the past participle of the main verb in the sentence)
You do not need to do this using “did”, though. It already indicates you are using a past tense.
Very nice Video Ronnie…. But I’m Pakistan, I can use both ;)

Hi, gr8 class indeed… just one observation, wouldn’t those be considered regular verbs since their ending in the past is d or ed… irregular verbs normally change spelling and of course there are some exceptions such as cut or put… but dream, learn and the ones you have their… are considered regular verbs… thx!! pls do let me know if I’m mistaken then again it’s my second language! RGDS!
It’s relly plesure learn English with you.
Thaks for this lesson
Have a good day.

Is this site contain all pronunciation rules for British English Mrs: Ronnie?
yeah my dear teacher Ronnie. On your discussion, I learned now that there are English words that can be laid to argument sometime. The verb burn I used on my maintenance report became highlighted because I used burned which is American English. And it was insisted that I must use burnt which is British English which is the same meaning but different English tradition.
Hi madam Ronnie, Can you be sometime discuss also verbs French to Canadian English. lol
You’re one of the best teachers i’ve met. Keep going… you make me laugh a lot! Thanks
Thank you!!
Hi Ronnie. In the video you mentioned that “Irregular verbs” are Simple Past and Past Participle of the verbs.
Please refer the following link:http://www.usingenglish.com/reference/irregular-verbs/
