Rey

I like your teaching, thanks a lot.

florosita

    alex is the best! thanks. very clearly and usefull lessons!

    joanna

Could you tell me; where’s the difference between: “somebody SHOULD DO something.” vs. “somebody SHOULD BE DOING something”?

Jakub1

    They are both sentences which give advice, with slightly different intentions. “Somebody should do something” is the simple present, meaning that it’s general advice and that someone should do something, but they are not doing it yet. “Somebody should be doing something” is the present progressive/continuous tense, and advises that someone should be doing something RIGHT NOW. They are both very close in meaning.

    Alex

      thanks for this additional comment.

      MKJMKJ

Thanks for the class very interesting …

Marco

Thanks for your lessons and your entire website.
I have a suggestion.
Why don’t you filter noise out your lesson.
It will hear better and more comfortable.
Many softwares now can do it easily, effectively, swiftly.

; )

huy

    I will see if there is any way to improve the sound, but I think it is already quite good!

    Alex

    Hello, Alex! Hello, Bijo! I really appreciate your Lessons, Alex. And I would be delighted to learn more about using “would have”, “could have”, “should have” (Bijo suggestion), and other forms of these modals. Thank you in advance.

Your explanation is very clear and your pronouncing too.Thank you very much for your lessons and this is exactly the website I was looking for.I don’t know how to thank all of you.I don’t only brush my information and learn very important things in English, but also learn how to explain well and effectively because I am a teacher of English.But I noticed that there is not daily adding of videoes and information.I wish you success and for this website to be the most famous one in learning and teaching English.

akram

Hi Alex,

It my first lesson and it is soooo great, thank you. I didn’t know ‘should’ can be used for avice. Most of Korean students and I are accustomed to using ‘should’ only for duty. For example, ‘You should study hard to go to that school.
Is it common to use for advice? Do people have to understand on context??

cecilia2072

Thank you for this lesson,I have benefited greatly.I have one simple question-had better- here had means past form of has/have or different particular word.
waiting your reply.

Prabala

alex… u missed a word.
> must < no discussion?

Debtor $_$

how to say this sentence using it’s and keeping the same meaning? I had better go to the dentist soon

aouza

    I’m not sure if I understand your question.

    “I had better go to the dentist soon,” can have the same meaning as “I must go to the dentist soon,” or “I need to go to the dentist soon.”

    Was this your question?

    Alex

THANX FREE ENGLESH WEB

ANWER

brilliant, thanks Alex, Barcelona

juan

Dear Alex.
When you have this sentence:
Should we go shopping?
And the answer is
no, we should not.
Could you also say no, we shouldn’t???

Xx

Enjee

    Yes, that is also something you can say. It’s much more informal and used in speaking. It is a simple contraction and is very common in spoken English.

    Alex

hey thanx,
its great…i want to learn all the tenses,where i find it in sequences?

vijay

    Hi vijay,

    Unfortunately, the lessons on Engvid.com are not in a specific order. Try using the search function.

benakin

firstly thank you very much, sir. Your lessons are full of motivation and I’m enjoying a lot. my question, is it same if i say “He would better call his friends” and the one you already taught us which is “had better”, thanks

Deeq

    Hi Deeq,

    “He would better call his friends” is grammatically incorrect. You mean to say “He had better call his friends.”

    Alex

thanks so much for your lessons,its so interestin especiallly your method of teaching.but ve one question!can you do new lessons bcos i ve already passed through all?thanks

nura

safaa

safaa hassa

thanks allex

umesh

i like your way of teaching…

nesta

I’ve never known the differences between “had better” and “should/ ought to” until I watch this lesson. many thanks to your lesson.

DUONG NGUYEN

thank you alex, about this lesson . i learn tow new words ; ouhgt to and had better

sihem

Hi Alex! How we could use “had” in present and future tense.e.g he had better call his mother.

sibghatullah

    “Had better” is already used in the present, and is advice for the present. Of course, it is impossible to follow advice DIRECTLY at the moment of speaking, so it is actually used for the future too.

    “You had better come to class tomorrow” is advice for the future, but it is advice made in the present.

    I hope this is not too confusing.

    Alex

hello sir
you are superb teacher the best one .
i will be watching and listening your lesson most of my free time . thankyou

hem pokhrel

lisblaz

Dear Alex, I find your classes really interesting! I’d like to ask you about CAN to ask for and give advice. I’m taking a course and I can’t see the difference between can and should. E.g.: What can I do in Mexico city?
What should I do in Mexico City?
THX

gabs

Sajid CAD

Dear teacher,
thanks a lot for Your video lessons . I know in English , there are many verbs followed by other verb with different forms ( for example TRY + to inf / TRY + v-ing ) , and in each sentence the meaning of the verb is also different ( for example TRY in the sentence above ). would you please teach us more about that . Gog bless you !

SUNIL RAJ SAPKOTA

i don’t understand this sebject please help me

fatima

hey alex, can you help me to use of ” have had” had had ..

russel

    “have had” is the present perfect form, and “had had” is the past perfect form.

    I have had a hot dog before. (in your life, you have eaten a hot dog)

    I had had a difficult time in university. (you are telling a story. Maybe you are talking about an old job you had, and mentioning how BEFORE university, you had had a hard time)

    Good luck!

    Alex

      Please could you do a lesson about had had and have had I would like let it clear in my mind thanks.

    Use it for strong advice. It’s similar to “should.”

    “I’m sick.”
    “You ought to stay at home.”

    “My car is busted.”
    “You ought to take it to a mechanic.”

Hi sir! I’m really thankful for your lesson. May I have a question for you? I have learned before that “had better” can be used to discuss something that we should do but we did not in the past. Is it true? I used it in that way several times and I was so confused. It’s like I go to work this morning and decided not to bring umbrella, then it’s raining and I’m like “oh, I had better bring an umbrella”. Could you give me an advice for this. I’m looking forward to your reply. Thank you!!

thankyou alex for teaching

monish

Hi! I don’t have to say your lessons are very good.Tks
What about would better is it the same as had better?
Could you give me an advice because I lack understanding the most, how can I improve my understanding? Especially if someone speaks quickly and not very clearly. Thanks.
Tks

Thank you so much Alex for sharing us about should, ought to and had better. Today I studied it but not sure. Anyway, I understand clearly more after I watched your teaching.

Thanks Mr.Alex for every thing

I would like to spend hours daily to milk the information up in engvid: the lessons and quiz are very instructive and practical. I do hope your web site can continue afterwards so that more and more people are benefited. English is a tool to world.
Is there any hint of ‘ past tense ‘ when we use s+ should + v or s+ had better + v ?
If it is possible , please arrange some lessons addressed to some sentences where different tenses used, e.g., You should tidy up your belongs which have been knocking around the floor in the rooms for years if you returned home earlier. Should I use return ( simple present ) here ?

Thanks Alex,
I would like to check it with you thought that while you say “should”and “ought to” are the same, I have been using “ought to” as less strong than “should”.

Please say what you think.

Andry2014

Sorry, I meant “though”.

I have problem with grammar, I hope to solve some day. and I’m sure my sentence has mistake.
