Test yourself and find out if you make any of these mistakes in English! These are some of the worst mistakes people make in English—but they are also very common. Both native speakers of English and English learners make them. I’ll show you have to correct these writing and speaking errors quickly and easily. If you need more help with any of these issues, you can watch an entire lesson that focuses on it. Here are the individual lesson videos on each point:
I have a great time ..
I am having a great time.which one is correct..where to use “i have” and ,”i am having”..clarify me
Santhosh85083
I have … is for possession. Sample: “I have a car.” This is my car, my possession.
“I am having” is expressing I don’t know. Emotion? Sample: “I am having a great time.” This does not mean I posses time. I just expresses my feelings.

HI Rebecca.
Thanks for the lesson. Could you please let me know if the folowing sentences are correct?
Your late was predectibale. You’re always late!
europeangel
Second one is correct, but first one isn’t.
Your = adjective (your = it means it belongs to you)
late = adjective (it means being late, not on time)
I checked “predectibale” in dictionary and does not exists. Do you mean “predictable”?
I would say correct is this one:
You being late is predictable.
rokaly
I’ll say “your delay was predictable”. For me the second sentence is correct but I am not Rebecca and may be I am wrong. Let’us wait Rebecca’s comment.
mclaude
Merci Beaucoup Marie Claude.
As a noun late becomes lateness, so we could say.
Your lateness was predictable. You’re always late!
europeangel
Thanks to all of you for helping out a fellow student.There are many ways to convey the same idea.
The easiest way would probably be to say:
Your being late was predictable.
Your / The delay was predictable.
Your lateness was predictable.
Your tardiness was predictable.
To be tardy also means to be late! My best wishes to all of you and thank you for watching, learning, and growing eeach day.
Rebecca

Hi madam, i have been learning english through engvid for last four years. I have asked you a lot of english grammatical doubts before, but you haven’t considered me yet. I hope this time you might consider me.
My doubt is that
HAD BETTER & WOULD RATHER have the same meaning and can we use ” than ” with HAD BETTER?
1. I HAD BETTER go for a job than sit here.
2. I WOULD RATHER go for a job than sit here.
Do both the sentences have the same meaning and are it grammatically correct?
Thanks.
junaidchithari
Thanks so much for watching and learning English with us, junaidchithari.
To answer your question, here are the correct sentences:
1) I had better go to work rather than sit here.
2) I would rather go to work than sit here.
The meaning of the two sentences is close, but different. The first sentence is stronger, more forceful. It means I should really go to work or else the consequences will be bad. It also means I should not just sit here as going to work is more important. The second sentence is softer as it means I prefer to go to work, instead of just sitting here.
Hope this helps! I wish you all the best.
Rebecca
Thank u so much madam.
Madam, could you please explain the differences between TO & IN ORDER TO in your next class?
1.TO get a good grade, you need to hardwork.
IN ORDER TO get good grade, you need to hardwork.
How doiffer these in meaning and usages?
junaidchithari
Tnx… nice job

Kashif shahzad
Thank you for a good lesson! Very useful
marygrint
Hi, Madam, thanks for the lesson.
Is it wrong to say: Whose that bag?
and what about the expression ” who is that?” it sounds like we are asking about a human but we use “that” normally for non human. can you please correct me. thanks again :)
batman
Yes, it is wrong to say “Whose that bag?”. You should say: “Whose bag is that?”
Regarding the second point, imagine if someone knocks on the door, and we don’t know if it is a man or a woman. In such a situation, we would say, “Who is that?” instead of “Who is he/ she?”. We could also use the same question if we can see the person, but it is kind of a short way of saying” Who is that person?”. All the best, Batman.
Rebecca
Thank you very much Madam.
Best regards

There are only three ways to improve your english.
One is to learn what’s right.
The second way is to correct what’s wrong.
And the third way is keep moving forward step-by-step.
Thanks you ms. Rebecca for your advice. By the way, did I wrong something in my sentences?

Most students make mistakes not just because they are kind of unable to make it. It’s just because they are not considering grammatical rules into successful account and communicate formally. They just stick to the message delivery than message accuracy. Thank you very much beautiful teachers, you are really helpful as parents to children. I wish you created a website or social media for speaking partners. It may sound crazy but I know it can help to improve our speaking ability.

Engvid changed my life. Back in 2014 I decided to work in a cruise ship in order to practice my english and get a new career. I used engvid with an idependent english lessons guide and now I am fluent, got a good job in the United States and live here permanently after finding my spouse. You guys have a very important project here and you are improving other’s lives. Thank You and I hope I could give you more financially support. So everyone whom are able to support with funds, please do. Love all the teachers in here, you guys are changing the world.

Number 9 is very debatable, I’m having a really bad cold can be said also. In the case of a cold maybe using ”have” is slightly better but if you replace ”cold” for ”day”, using have would not be proper english at all. Just compare ”I’m having a bad day” vs ”I have a bad day”.

Thank you, Ma’am.
Thank you ?
I have a great time ..
I am having a great time.which one is correct..where to use “i have” and ,”i am having”..clarify me
I have … is for possession. Sample: “I have a car.” This is my car, my possession.
“I am having” is expressing I don’t know. Emotion? Sample: “I am having a great time.” This does not mean I posses time. I just expresses my feelings.
I can’t watch this

HI Rebecca.
Thanks for the lesson. Could you please let me know if the folowing sentences are correct?
Your late was predectibale. You’re always late!
Second one is correct, but first one isn’t.
Your = adjective (your = it means it belongs to you)
late = adjective (it means being late, not on time)
I checked “predectibale” in dictionary and does not exists. Do you mean “predictable”?
I would say correct is this one:
You being late is predictable.
I’ll say “your delay was predictable”. For me the second sentence is correct but I am not Rebecca and may be I am wrong. Let’us wait Rebecca’s comment.
Merci Beaucoup Marie Claude.
As a noun late becomes lateness, so we could say.
Your lateness was predictable. You’re always late!
Thanks to all of you for helping out a fellow student.There are many ways to convey the same idea.
The easiest way would probably be to say:
Your being late was predictable.
Your / The delay was predictable.
Your lateness was predictable.
Your tardiness was predictable.
To be tardy also means to be late! My best wishes to all of you and thank you for watching, learning, and growing eeach day.

I think the reason why he said 2 so is becuase he is grateful or he is just very happy .
Wow!!! I can’t believe that i got 100.

Hi madam, i have been learning english through engvid for last four years. I have asked you a lot of english grammatical doubts before, but you haven’t considered me yet. I hope this time you might consider me.
My doubt is that
HAD BETTER & WOULD RATHER have the same meaning and can we use ” than ” with HAD BETTER?
1. I HAD BETTER go for a job than sit here.
2. I WOULD RATHER go for a job than sit here.
Do both the sentences have the same meaning and are it grammatically correct?
Thanks.
Thanks so much for watching and learning English with us, junaidchithari.
To answer your question, here are the correct sentences:
1) I had better go to work rather than sit here.
2) I would rather go to work than sit here.
The meaning of the two sentences is close, but different. The first sentence is stronger, more forceful. It means I should really go to work or else the consequences will be bad. It also means I should not just sit here as going to work is more important. The second sentence is softer as it means I prefer to go to work, instead of just sitting here.
Hope this helps! I wish you all the best.
Thank u so much madam.
Madam, could you please explain the differences between TO & IN ORDER TO in your next class?
1.TO get a good grade, you need to hardwork.
IN ORDER TO get good grade, you need to hardwork.
How doiffer these in meaning and usages?
Tnx… nice job
Your are awesome madam.

its so nice lesson……
Hi Teacher,i hope you’re doing great,i have a question about grammar.
1st.example:sentence is”He is so innocent”so can we use an before innocent? are both correct or what?
can you please make a video on it,thanks,love and prayers.
Thank you for a good lesson! Very useful
Hi, Madam, thanks for the lesson.
Is it wrong to say: Whose that bag?
and what about the expression ” who is that?” it sounds like we are asking about a human but we use “that” normally for non human. can you please correct me. thanks again :)
Yes, it is wrong to say “Whose that bag?”. You should say: “Whose bag is that?”
Regarding the second point, imagine if someone knocks on the door, and we don’t know if it is a man or a woman. In such a situation, we would say, “Who is that?” instead of “Who is he/ she?”. We could also use the same question if we can see the person, but it is kind of a short way of saying” Who is that person?”. All the best, Batman.
Thank you very much Madam.
Best regards
Thanks for the lesson

Very usefull Rebecca. Great class…!!!
what is stative?
There are only three ways to improve your english.
One is to learn what’s right.
The second way is to correct what’s wrong.
And the third way is keep moving forward step-by-step.
Thanks you ms. Rebecca for your advice. By the way, did I wrong something in my sentences?
Hi Madam
I answered quiz without watching and got 90%. In most of lessons delivered by you I got maximum numbers that is why I like you my best teacher. I attend your lesson after three years.

Thank you, Rebecca, for such comprehensive explanations – it’s always a pleasure to be listening to you. Your vids provide a good example of using different techniques and methods for making your auditorium understand you properly, that makes your lessons really helpful not only for English-learners, but for teachers as well.
IM REALLY GLAD WHILE IM LISTENING TO YOU MA’AM. IT’S A SATISFYING LESSON TO ME THOUGH I KNOW HOW TO EXPRESS MYSELF IN ENGLSIH BUT I WANT TO LEARN MORE. MOSYTLY IN MY GRAMMAR.
It is really fantastic.I have learned the mistakes what I did.
Thanks, Rebecca.
Mrs Rebecca you are the best. Not only in teaching but also in the communication. It seems you understand everyone from different cultures. You are unforgettable teacher.
thanks for the help.
a good lesson .. ^^
Thank you :)
Very useful… Thanks a lot
Most students make mistakes not just because they are kind of unable to make it. It’s just because they are not considering grammatical rules into successful account and communicate formally. They just stick to the message delivery than message accuracy. Thank you very much beautiful teachers, you are really helpful as parents to children. I wish you created a website or social media for speaking partners. It may sound crazy but I know it can help to improve our speaking ability.
Great lesson, thanks a lot, mrs Teacher)
9/10 Thank you very much!
Good morning Rebecca, thanks for your video. I have a doubt about the 10th mistake. In the example I undestand we must say “has” but according to others examples why can we say “having “? e.g. having fun – having shower
Kind regards
thank you
Thank you Rebecca, you have a very good way to explain, i like it
thank you
Thank you Rebecca! Your tips is awesome!!
Great class Rebecca!
Hi, Rebecca. Thanks for your video.

nglish.

You guys have a very important project here and you are improving other’s lives. Thank You and I hope I could give you more financially support. So everyone whom are able to support with funds, please do. Love all the teachers in here, you guys are changing the world.

Thanks, Mam for your great lesson. I want to write well. For that, I try to visit Engvid website on a regular basis.

Dear Rebecca thanks of your English teaching videosI really enjoy &content of having been in your on line classes,will please let meknow in which quiz’s tests you answer our questions?
Thanks a lot Rebecca. This an excellent lesson. (Azores islands, 10Nov2021);
Thank you.
Number 9 is very debatable, I’m having a really bad cold can be said also. In the case of a cold maybe using ”have” is slightly better but if you replace ”cold” for ”day”, using have would not be proper english at all. Just compare ”I’m having a bad day” vs ”I have a bad day”.
I watched this video twice more time on April 30, 2022.
Thank you Teacher Rebecca. I got 9/10.
Thk Rebecca.I got 10/10.
