Hi Ronnie.U r great teacher.Thx a lot.I’ve question.U said that we should use hung out instead of “play”. So, If I want to say “I played boling (football, golf and so on) with my friend yesterday” for this I’ve to say “I hung out boling (football, golf and so on) with my friend yesterday”. Am I right?
Terani.
No, cuz you´re specifying what you´ve played.
Play means sex when it´s used without an object.
I don’t know if it’s allowed for me to answer your question but I’ll take a chance and try to help Ms. Ronnie. You don’t have to replace every “play” with “hang out”, it’s not like you omitting this word out of dictionaries. For example, you can still say “I played some music” or “I played chess the other day” or “I played with my son yesterday” or “they played with the exam results”, and none of those “play” has a sexual context.
It is about “to hang out” and not “hung out”.I like to hang out with my friends on internet. I like to spend time wherever /whenever without a prealable schedule .Teenagers often enjoy to hang out around icecream shop(spend time together) after last course,before to go home.
Thank you very much, Ronnie and also thank you Felipe, Adham, Jorjel for your help.
I think Ms Ronnie said that you hang out with your friend. (Means you play something right?) Then your answer would be: I hang out with my friend to play sb yesterday. That should be the better one. I ask my teacher already. ^^ I hope you understand.
Ronnie, I’m a Brazilian’s student and I’m very thankful to you. I’m a beginner. If you add subtitles at videos will be better. Your job is important to me and to my friends. Thank you so much.
Hi, Ronnie, I am your fan I really love you too much, I’d like to meet you on facebook or something like that. answer me if possible Cosmo Gomes from Brazil, Kisses
thanks very much for this lesson
your presentation very good and I
like your way in teaching
hi i am Narjice from morocco thank you Ronnie for this lesson you are an amazing teacher, i like you and i like your method so much.
i have a requist please can you make a video about the diffrence between begin and start or they have the same meaning.thanks again so much.
Hi teacher Ronnie, I can never get bored in a class you are a teacher in it, thank you very much about this lesson, and I’m looking forward to your following lesson, Could you please tell us a few words about stressing syllables. Thanks
Hi Ronnie, this lesson is very good. Thanks!
Can I ask you some question?
How can I count the syllables with diphthongs?
Are all diphthongs same vowels?
This is the first time I write in English. Sorry about my misstakes.
Please write soon.
Best wishes.
Hi there,
The 1rst one is right n it’s present simple but the 2nd one is Not.If u wanna use past tense,u have 2 use:When did John ” go ” 2 the school?
Past tense question:( Did+simple verb ).
e.g. 1.When did u do the quiz?
2.Did ur mom make a sandwich 4 u last evening?
3.When did u watch engvid 4 the 1rst time?!
Does it help??!
Glad I could help :)
The best with ur English!
I think it could be better for the students who are learning English if the videos have synchronous options .That will provide a more visual way to understand the contents by catching the characters when hearing a word that has no idea about its meaning.
Thank you,
I have one big problem with “able to” It is so confused for me. I dont know how and where to use it… Can you halp me with your next video??ß Please
Thank you very much in advance
Lola from Germany
Able to is exactly the same as “Can”. I am able to read = I can read!

Iam French speaking, i would like to improve my English, pronunciation,writing, understanding skills and I have the dream to write the books in English, kindly advice me what I can do more to achieve my dream. God bless your.

hi ronnie. thanks your lesson. my English is very bad.i cann’t talk with everyone by English. i’m realy want to improve English by myself.
how am i contact with you. ( such as facebook or yahoo, something like that…) i’m look forward to your mail. thanks again
I have a question.
At the lesson “Conversation Skills – Speak with confidence” you said, “If a person wants to talk to you, they will talk to you.” (“a person” changes to “they”). How to say a sentence like this one. “If a student takes exams, he (she) will get grant.” What word can I use instead of “she” or “he”, if I mean one person and I want to talk about general.
Is it a rule when “one person” can change to “they” if I talk about a person in general (a man or woman)?
All I know is this: If we have a sentence which has, for example, two parts, and we use a singular subject in the first part of the sentence, we should use a singular subject in the second part of the sentence too. For instance:
“If you know someone, tell him something.” — Many people would say: “If you know someone, tell them something.” Anyway this is a grammar bug, but people speak in this way very often, especially in daily speech.
Hi Ronnie, you’re a Wonderful teacher.
I have lots of problems with the regular verbs pronunciation, I can’t notice the different between the present and the past, for instance “hear” – “heard” and so on. Would you mind make a special class about it?
Thanks
Ronnie,,,I will thank u if u make a video about how to pronounce the linking words,prepositions and adverbs like then quickly through the sentence…
because when i try to listen to a song or watch amovie i can’t catch these words !!!
Hi, I´m a great fan!!! My name is Janaki, and I´m from Brazil.
I´m embarrassed, but I´ve started to study recently, and love your classes.
Please, correct my mistakes, ok? Forgive me for the simple text. I´ll improve, I promise! :D
You’re awesome! I started doing private English class and my teacher showed me his video for I will do better! I watched your 2 videos and was impressed, thank you!

Hi Ronnie. Ihope u are fine .I wanna from you to explaine somthing is intresting for our learning English language . How we are write an essay as good as u like .. I want answer please if u can ……
Hi, my amazing teacher ronnie, I just want to ask you what is the meaning of Iron my shotties ….is from a music …. I see your vids and you seem a beauty women with vast vocabulary. I learn a lot with this page and I like so much I want to know how donate ?? I have recently a debit card.
Sorry, I have no idea what iron my shotties means. What song is it??? I can look it up and tell you the meaning…I think it may mean iron my shorts???????
To donate, I think there is a button you can click on to make a donation!
Let me know the song!!!
One Nike in the grave is a play on the idiom “one foot in the grave”. It means you are going to die soon. Nike = shoe brand.
One Nike in the rave = Rave is a electronic dance party popular in the late 90′s. So that means one foot was at the party.
Currently in India “Rave Party” is considered to be a negative thing and often refers to the parities those involved dance,drugs and sex. Is this definition correct in modern days? and if not what word will you used to refer such parties.
Why does the word “out” have 1 syllable ? It has two vowel sounds.
The “ou” in “out” is what’s called a diphthong — a vowel sound that is a combination of two. Other diphthongs are the “i” in “right” (raaa-ight) and the “ow” in “tow” (toh-ooooo). They contain two vowel sounds, but are spoken in one syllable.
English is my second language. I have been using English since I was very young. Every lesson presented in Enghelp let me learn something new regardless of whether it is for beginner, intermediate or advance. I would definitely recommend this website to all my friends and members of my family. Great job!
Hi Ronnie. I appreciate this explanation, clear,
natural and good. Here in S. José dos Campos, Brazil, a lot of people are used to listen to engvid.com. By the way, many people visited the beautiful Toronto. Thank you very much.
Please tell me :– why this is correct ..
The intelligence of many wild animals is indeed amazing.
My question why we not use “many wild animals are” plz explain it ?
We use is because the subject is “intelligence” (not many animals). Intelligence is uncountable!
Hi, ms ronnie..can i have your email address so that i can email you about my problems.
here are some common grammar which i am confused..
1)if the word followed by never and havent, the verb must be in past tense form or basic verb.( eg, i never do that before or i never done that before , i havent tell the teacher yet or i havent told the teacher yet?)
2) what is she eating or what is her eating?
3) i never had a boyfriend before or i never had a boyfriend..(do we need to add the word “before” in the last sentences of never)
Thanks, I always wanted and asked to my teachers for an explanation without success, I think that greatly improves the ability to say and do the right emphasis on each word. Sensational, thank you very much!
Hi Ronnie ,why the (out) word is 1syllable.it was 2 vowel sounds(o,u) ?
Out only has 1 vowel sound. The “ou” sounds like one. In English, we call these diphthongs. A diphthong is 2 vowels that when together, make one vowel sound!
Ronnie, I’m so happy to have discovered engVid. I’m an ELD teacher in California. I’ve used some of your videos to give the students a break from me. I really like your presentations. mo
1)You can use never + base, if you talk about your daily routine. EX.. I never eat seafood.
If you want to talk about your past experience, you have to use present perfect. EX I have never eaten seafood. (sub + have/has + never + past participle). OR I haven’t eaten seafood. ( Sub+ have not + past participle).
2) What is she eating….is correct. She =is a pronoun, it replaces a person’s name. Her =is possessive. It tells us who has the noun!
3) Before is unnecessary unless you want to emphasize (make stronger) your sentence. However, you must say I HAVE never had a boyfriend!
mam , how “university” could be 5 vowel sounds? if “u” considers as vowel sound,we should use “an university ” but we use “a university” so i understand “u” is not sounds vowel , right ? please correct me if i am wrong. thank u.
Hi there,Ronnie! A doubt came to my mind…”Noisy” or “Polite” are 2-syllables words, however, they can have both comparative/superlative structures. What’s the reason? I mean, is there any rule for those 2-syllables words which also work in the “short” form? Really appreciate your time.
Noisy, because it ends in a Y, must be nosiest.
A lot of 2 syllable words can use either -est or most. However, to make it easy, I just gave 1 example…..to keep it simple!
hi ronnie! can you make video for sports ,colours,clothes etc so that how can we explain them.i request you to prepare a video about how to explain oneself in interview .waiting!!!!!
regards
still confused about ‘clash’ even thouhg I read about below.
if no info about transcription , clash[kı lesh] ??? no function of the neutral sound[ı] ???
Thanks a lot. Now I can easily count syllables. I started loving, learn from this site. All the lectures are simply amazing and beauty of these classes I found is the FUN in learning. It just keeps me motivated all the time.
Thanks to all the lecturers of ENGVID.COM.
Hi Ronnie,

I extend my advance THANKS to you Mam.Hoping for your kind response.
Have a great day!Maraming Salamat. MABUHAY!
SORRY, I won’t have time to make a video by next Saturday! Good luck on your assignment!

Thank you very much, Ronnie and also thank you Felipe, Adham, Jorjel for your help.
I think Ms Ronnie said that you hang out with your friend. (Means you play something right?) Then your answer would be: I hang out with my friend to play sb yesterday. That should be the better one. I ask my teacher already. ^^ I hope you understand.

hi teacher Ronnie,
THANKS TEACHER RONNIE , THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT…
Hello Ronnie!
Thanks.
I have a question.
At the lesson “Conversation Skills – Speak with confidence” you said, “If a person wants to talk to you, they will talk to you.” (“a person” changes to “they”). How to say a sentence like this one. “If a student takes exams, he (she) will get grant.” What word can I use instead of “she” or “he”, if I mean one person and I want to talk about general.
Is it a rule when “one person” can change to “they” if I talk about a person in general (a man or woman)?
Yes, you can just use “they”!
Thank you, Ronnie, for answering and for this http://www.perfect-english-grammar.com/index.html link. (Someone asked you about the verbs, and you gave the link.)
All I know is this: If we have a sentence which has, for example, two parts, and we use a singular subject in the first part of the sentence, we should use a singular subject in the second part of the sentence too. For instance:
“If you know someone, tell him something.” — Many people would say: “If you know someone, tell them something.” Anyway this is a grammar bug, but people speak in this way very often, especially in daily speech.
i really love the way u teach people. really want to be student on your class.
Thank you Ronnie..
Hi Ronnie, you’re a Wonderful teacher.
I have lots of problems with the regular verbs pronunciation, I can’t notice the different between the present and the past, for instance “hear” – “heard” and so on. Would you mind make a special class about it?

OK! I’ll try to make a lesson for you!

One Nike in the grave is a play on the idiom “one foot in the grave”. It means you are going to die soon. Nike = shoe brand.

THANKS IT’S MAKE ME SO MUCH BATTER.

you are the teacher whom I wished to teach me when I was child
Why does the word “out” have 1 syllable ? It has two vowel sounds.

Oh man, that’s why I quit that linguistics course.

Every lesson presented in Enghelp let me learn something new regardless of whether it is for beginner, intermediate or advance. I would definitely recommend this website to all my friends and members of my family. Great job!

Very good , thank
Thank you teacher!
thank you
hello thank you so much
Please tell me :– why this is correct ..
The intelligence of many wild animals is indeed amazing.
My question why we not use “many wild animals are” plz explain it ?
We use is because the subject is “intelligence” (not many animals). Intelligence is uncountable!
hello my name is faisal and i have a question

I will try to make a lesson for you!
hi,Ronnie..
i’m proud and to wish congratulations just for you and team because your english lessons is very effective.
Hi, ms ronnie..can i have your email address so that i can email you about my problems.
here are some common grammar which i am confused..
1)if the word followed by never and havent, the verb must be in past tense form or basic verb.( eg, i never do that before or i never done that before , i havent tell the teacher yet or i havent told the teacher yet?)
2) what is she eating or what is her eating?
3) i never had a boyfriend before or i never had a boyfriend..(do we need to add the word “before” in the last sentences of never)
waiting for your reply. thank you.
Really good lessons, thanks for help us on learning english. Grettings from Guatemala!

Hi Ronnie, thanks for your kindly teaching, I love to learn English どもども~♪(๑´ㅂ`๑)っ旦 from your lessons. You did a good job!
ronnie you looks like you ‘ve lost weight very well or i think so ?
thanx alot for this useful website
Great site!!
Thanks, I always wanted and asked to my teachers for an explanation without success, I think that greatly improves the ability to say and do the right emphasis on each word. Sensational, thank you very much!
Nice class and lovely teacher!
thank you ronnie i always enjoying learning from your lesson. always study more and more with you. pls be with us forever
hellow mrs Ronnie;
thank you for good lessons I like it.
Best regards
this is my first video lesson…i love the way u teaching…keep it up
keep it continue great Ronnie
perfect
hello Ms Ronnie,
Very nice class indeed. Mistake noted.
Regards
Hi Ronnie ,why the (out) word is 1syllable.it was 2 vowel sounds(o,u) ?
Out only has 1 vowel sound. The “ou” sounds like one. In English, we call these diphthongs. A diphthong is 2 vowels that when together, make one vowel sound!
Ronnie, I’m so happy to have discovered engVid. I’m an ELD teacher in California. I’ve used some of your videos to give the students a break from me. I really like your presentations. mo
I would rather learn with Engvid on webpage than Facebook page.
1)You can use never + base, if you talk about your daily routine. EX.. I never eat seafood.
If you want to talk about your past experience, you have to use present perfect. EX I have never eaten seafood. (sub + have/has + never + past participle). OR I haven’t eaten seafood. ( Sub+ have not + past participle).
2) What is she eating….is correct. She =is a pronoun, it replaces a person’s name. Her =is possessive. It tells us who has the noun!
3) Before is unnecessary unless you want to emphasize (make stronger) your sentence. However, you must say I HAVE never had a boyfriend!
Dear Ronnie,
Hello.
mmm this good lasson
Thanks Mra Ronnie, Good a Lesson
Sorry, I made a mistake. I should have wrote ‘ Mrs.Ronnie not Mra.Ronnie….Error Type
thank u ronni i like u
thanku ronnie mam i really like your lessons. can you meet me please.
hi
nice lecture and good teaching about vowels
100You got 10 correct out of 10.
:D
thanx i have 80
mam , how “university” could be 5 vowel sounds? if “u” considers as vowel sound,we should use “an university ” but we use “a university” so i understand “u” is not sounds vowel , right ? please correct me if i am wrong. thank u.
U is a vowel sound!
Hi Ronnie. Can you explain me why the word out has only one syllable? I though it has two sounds.
Gracias!!! thankyou
Hi there,Ronnie! A doubt came to my mind…”Noisy” or “Polite” are 2-syllables words, however, they can have both comparative/superlative structures. What’s the reason? I mean, is there any rule for those 2-syllables words which also work in the “short” form? Really appreciate your time.
Noisy, because it ends in a Y, must be nosiest.
A lot of 2 syllable words can use either -est or most. However, to make it easy, I just gave 1 example…..to keep it simple!
Thank you, greetings from Colombia
thanks a lot Ms. Ronie…
because of you i learn a lot…
out have 1 syllables I think when I say out I feel 2 vowel sound isn’t true ?
thanks miss Ronnie really enjoyed with lesson :)
Hi Muhammad,
you can not separate the first vowel.
Yes, there are 2 vowels, but together, they make one vowel sound!
9points oh yeah!!! but why ‘clash’ is 1 syllable?? please could you tell me reason?
Hi, try to separate clash ( cla-sh ) or ( clash )? just one syllable.
sorry!
1 Vowel,1 syllable. Clash.
great class!
thank you Ronnie

I extend my advance THANKS to you Mam.Hoping for your kind response.
Have a great day!Maraming Salamat. MABUHAY!
