Well done Emma. Many thanks. Keep it up.
I Am fan of reading about the past historical stories
Thank you very much for this lesson. Every day we learn something new…. You are a great teacher…
Great job Emma. Indeed these two words are pretty confusing because they are homonyms. I could differentiate them in the past, but after I passed your quiz on this site, now I’m 100% sure what the difference is. Keep up your great work! :)
Yes I gree it with you that she is a great teacher that I never fund anyone who better than her.

Thank You Emma for this lesson !!! Ireally got it. Beautiful teacher, beautiful lesson, great explanation !!!
Thanks Emma. i passed this test. 10/10
I’m glad to hear you guys have passed the test! Keep up the good work!
the difference between two word are quite difficult to me would you give more examples about that words teacher
my name is Abdirahman
Here are some more examples.
1) I passed my test.
2) I passed the park on my way home today.
3) You passed by me and didn’t even say ‘hi’?
Notice ‘passed’ is a verb.
4) I love old movies. Movies were better in the past.
5) Past Nobel Prize winners include Jimmy Carter, Al Gore and Barack Obama.
6) Not much has changed in the past five years.
Notice “past” is not a verb, but a noun or adjective. It means a period before now.
I hope that helps!

thank you somuch for this lesson, iam very happy to you, god bless you and i love you for comprenhention.
Thank you Emma
your way of presentig the differences between Past and Passed was lovely
Thanks again
Wow you’re a gr8 teacher.Waiting you’re next lesson XDDDDD
Thank you so much. But I have a small problem. Passed is a verb. Is it an infinitive verb? Or is it a past verb? If I want to say: “I passed the supermarket on my way to school everyday”. Is it right?
Thank you for your question Ana. The infinitive of the verb is ‘to pass’. In the past tense we add ‘ed’ to the verb, and it becomes ‘passed’.
For example:
Present tense: I pass the supermarket on my way to school everyday.
Past tense: I passed the supermarket on my way to school everyday.
Both sentences are correct.
thank u
it’s worth for me..thank u so much in deed.
Hi Emma
the more I see you the more I like you
you’re great
congratulations
Thnx a lot Emma, Ur way is so Simple, u’re an awesome Teacher :)
I passed the Quiz :D 10 out of 10
Well done! I’m glad that so many of you passed the test.
Emma,
I have a question.
Can I say “I passed to you yesterday, but you didn’t see me?
You cannot say I passed to you, but you can say I passed beside, or by you yesterday. If I’m wrong, fortunately we have our teacher Emma who is going to correct me.
OK! Very good!
hi…i would like to find new friend for working english.would you like.too?
Thank you for your question Tom.
You can say “I passed by you yesterday, but you didn’t see me.”
“I passed to someone” refers to sports. It means that you give your teammate the ball.
For example, David Beckham passed to his teammate. I passed the ball to Michael Jordan.
I hope that helps!
Dear Emma,
i saw your reply for Bal555’s comment. i am very confused now.
Why the word’pass’ no a verb? I look it up in the dictionary. It’s also a verb except adj and noun like this example:
When will the ship pass the channel?
So, teacher, can u explain to me ? Your reply is appreciated.
With regards,
Fong
The dictionary writes ‘pass’ is intransitive verb. By the way, teacher Emma, would you make video about the difference between ‘transitive verb’ and ‘ intransitive verb’? I think that this video is quite useful for all of the learner.^_^
Thanks a lot, wonderful teacher.
Im sorry, teacher Emma. I just found my comment is wrong. My word” pass ” is istead of ” past “. I beg your pardon.
By the way, i look it up in the dictionary. The ” past ” is noun, adjective and adverb. Teacher Emma, I assumed that adverb and preposition are not same meaning. Is it correct? Like this example:
A car ran past at full speed.
Thanks a lot my favourite teacher.
Thank you so much Emma ma’am. I’ve scored 10 out of 10 in quiz with great confidence, because of you.
I don`t speak English and I don`t write English , too. But I understood the lesson.
Is the lesson correct?
Hi emma i was missing you

Hi Emma . Thanks for your nice lesson. Would you please say me what I can apply first to improve my english especially speaking?
Hi Yusuf, thank you for your question. Speaking is very difficult for many people. I would suggest watching the engvid videos on speaking. They have great tips on how to become a better speaker.
I passed the quiz by paying attention 2 u. thank u 4 your effort n’ 4 the free lesson, there aren’t doubts between past n’ passed. take care.
I passed the quiz…10 out of 10…hurrey!!!

thank you very much indeed.
Yours a poor student as long as you accept me please ,
Ameen.
Thank you again everyone for your comments!
Ameen, I would recommend having a vocabulary goal. Try to learn 5-8 new words everyday. Additionally, we have some good videos in our vocabulary section.

Hi Emma Why do you deleted my comment?? You should not do it? Why??
So Emma you won’t do a lesson on mathematical terms. Ok, but could you then tell me where can I find a lesson on it online?
Hi Mark,
Thank you for your suggestion. What sort of vocabulary are you looking for? The four main verbs we use for math are add, subtract, divide, and multiply. Are you looking for vocabulary for higher level math like calculus or more basic terminology?
Thank you Emma for your answer!
I know basic operations such as addition, multiplication, division and subtraction, in english of course, in my native language not to mention. I’m currently studying maths at the University of Belgrade, 2nd year.
I’d like you to do more advanced lesson on, for example: Which expressions we use when doing operations as ROOT, SQUARE, FRACTIONS, how we call the number above fraction line, and under line, and all those things.
Emma, as I said, nothing special and extensive, just, let’s say short overview of maths from primary school, nothing more. Whatever you make, I’ll be thankful to you.
Btw, you are an excellent teacher, keep up your tremendous work.
Hello, Emma. Firstly, thankyou for reading my comment. I like the examples that you said. I just want to ask what is the different of weather and cilmate? Thx~:)
I’ll try to clarify this to you.
When you talk about weather, you refer to weather conditions (rainy, snowy, sunny, cloudy, warm, cool, cold, foggy etc.) But when you talk about climate, you refer to a set of atmospheric conditions that govern the specific part of the Earth’s surface. The elements of a climate that are taken to determine one climate are latitude, relief, distribution of land and sea currents, elevation, rotation, revolution, the atmosphere, distance from the sea, lakes, soil, vegetation and so on. I think now you know the difference.
Thank you for your question Bonnie and Mark’s reply.
Mark is correct. The main difference between weather and climate is time. Weather refers to atmospheric conditions in a short period of time, while climate refers to longer periods of time.
Thankyou both of you~
Happy New Year everyone!!!
And Happy New Year to you too!!! Wish you all the best in your life, and to Rebecca, Alex, James, Ronnie, Valen, Jon likewise!!!
happy new year to you too ^_^
happy new year :)
Emma ? can you please help me to find out how to delete my account on engVid.com ? do you maybe know if it’s actually possible to delete an account ? i would be happy if you could help me on that problem
You’re a very good teacher!!! Happy New Year!
Happy New Years , And Thank You So Much About Your ENGLISH Lesson
Thank you very much! I completely understood your lessen. than you!
Thank you very much!!
Hi guys. You should say only good things to Emma because I said some truth about her ability to teach only for help her and she deleted it. Think about it!
Thanks Emma…thank you very much
I m new one membre you’re very good teacher “emma” so your name, thank you very much we meet you in the next lesson
thank you very much Emma..
thank you for this useful topic and nice test that i have passed it successfully
thank you very much .
HI EMMA!
CAN YOU HELP ME?
WHEN I USE ALRIGHT AND ALL RIGHT?
‘Alright’ and ‘all right’ mean the same thing. The problem with using ‘alright’ is that it is not grammatically correct. Some English speakers may use it, especially with friends or online, but it is never used in formal English.
Thanks Emma! Happy New year!
Thanks Emma!
Happy new year~!
thank u very much very this lesson
thanks a lot
Happy New Year! and thanks for answer me!
Emma, maybe you can help me, I undestand a good part of english, but when I’m listening a music I just undestand some phrases, at my work I have to speak in english, but I need to improve more my english, do you know a metod that can halp me to learn fast?
Hi Nascimento,
It’s very good you are so motivated. Your motivation to learn will definitely help you pick up English faster.
It’s normal to understand only some of the words in a song. The singer often sings the lyrics too quickly. Native speakers have trouble with this too, including myself.
There are great videos on this site that deal with speaking and listening. I suggest watching them.
Research shows that if someone is nervous, stressed out, or feels self conscious, their language abilities will go down, making speaking and listening more difficult. It’s important to try to be relaxed when you speak.
If you make a mistake while speaking, don’t worry about it too much. The most important thing is to get your ideas across and use your English as much as possible.
Organizing your points can also really improve your speaking. You can do this by using phrases like “First of all,” “In my opinion”, etc.”
I will be making more videos on listening and speaking soon. I’ll include some more tips and suggestions in them.
Emma, I am very glad you answered me and been so clear in his explanations, I agree with your point of view, when I’m off I try to watch movies in English so I can further improve my English, but my situation is worse because I have to deal with agendas of executives and can not fail to interpretation. We look forward to your new videos, Thanks!

A GOOD LESSON THANK YOU

Hello Emma Thanks for lesson, could you give me your email where can you send some doubts, Thanks ….
Thanks for the good lesson
Thank you so much
It’s really useful site for those who are learning English as a 2nd language
Thanks for this lesson, it was very interesting.
HI Emma
I’m seeing that you love teaching a lot, I can see it from the way that you always have to try to find right word. But why do we try to insert in the explanation a lot of grammar rules ?. when we speak we have no time to think about it, so by this way you never speak fluently but the universal method to teach (at school, courses, etc.) is: teach as mathematic operation. So, even after several years of study we will never speak at all. I ‘m listening you in order to understand american accent rather than your teaching because I need to figure out american people rather english people (I need for my work), so sorry for my sharp words that don’t want to teach anything to anyone but I want to ask you one question… how does a baby learn their native language before to go at school ? Sorry again , Gianni
Hi Gianni,
You raise excellent points! Language is more than just grammar. Language is also culture. It is important to learn about differences between formal and informal English, vocabulary, tone, rhythm, and the list goes on. For some people, learning grammar like a mathematical formula is easiest. Other people learn language differently. They have difficulty understanding grammar, but do well just by listening to the people around them talk. People learn language in different ways, and teachers need to teach in varied ways. Our videos try to keep in mind these different learning styles.
ESL teachers teach children and adults differently because they learn differently. Children’s brains are at different developmental stages. They tend to learn more intuitively, while adults learn more analytically.
Thanks a lot for your answer Emma. I agree with you when you say that there are different method of teaching but I think that all methods have to point at same outcome….for example… learn english as you have learned to drive your car. When you are driving your car you can talk with your friend or you can listen to music and meantime you can think what you will teach today just when you arrive at school . You have no to think about move your arms when you turn right or think about which gear to put in or when is time to break at the traffic light. This operation are done in automatically way, the brain areas involved aren’t those that you use for logical analysis so we have to learn language in the same way we learn to drive, trying, without reasoning. Clearly this is only my opinion.
Ciao and you still love your work (that is a beautiful work).
Gianni
Hi Emma, I think you amazing. If you can do a lesson with some examples slang: ass.
Thank you.
11/10, I’m too smart, that’s what happens when you watch EngVig too much :DD
This story is for you Emma! You are new here, so I decided to share this with you :)
IT’S NOT MY JOB!!!
This is a story about 4 people named ANYBODY, EVERYBODY, SOMEBODY and NOBODY. There was an important job to be done and EVERYBODY was sure that SOMEBODY would do it. ANYBODY could have done it, but NOBODY did it. SOMEBODY got angry about that, because it was EVERYBODY’S job. EVERYBODY thought ANYBODY could do it, but NOBODY realized that EVERYBODY wouldn’t do it. It ended up that EVERYBODY blamed SOMEBODY when NOBODY did what ANYBODY could have done!!!
Thank you! I passed this lesson!)))
thank you,,,i like your way (great teacher)
THIS HELPED ME SO MUCH, I HAVE PROBLEMS WRITING, BUT I KNOW THIS WEB WILL HELP, PLEASE KEEP UPLOADING MORE VIDEOS PLEASE THANK YOU EMMA
thanks !!
Thank so much Emma, your lessons it’s very interesting, see you soon
Is there a difference between ”strange” and ”weird” ?
They mean the same thing. There’s no difference.
I’ve been told the second one (weird) may be a bit more insulting in some occasions. Is that sound about right? Thanks for the response!
Thank you very much for the useful lesson.
Thank you very much for this lesson
thanks a lot Emma
I passed the quiz test, and all my answer were correct!
Thanks,you are a great teacher!!!
Oh that great. Thank you so much.
Such a great teacher you are, Emma! =)

Hi Emma,You are a teacher eased communication learn English!
I have ask? I used “past” with adjective and clock ok! For clock, use past ok If for example talk a on minute not clock also me too use past?
I passed a this a lesson with 8/10
Thank for learner English goodbye ;)
what is the meaning of ameen .many of my frds used this word in front of me
hello, thanks teacher for informative lesson. could we use pass in different sentences as well like
he passed away.
could we use for countries as well as America is past Canada. is it correct thanks and regards for your struggle.
I’m glad you brought up this example. There are many meanings of the word “passed”. This lesson looked at some of the most common.
“He passed away” is a correct usage of the verb. Passed away is a nicer way of saying someone died.
For example,
Her grandfather passed away two weeks ago. I went to the funeral.
In terms of describing where a country is located on a map, we don’t use past to describe location, just like we don’t use after. Instead we use south, north, east, and west. For example, the United States is south of Canada.
Let me know if this answered your question on past and countries.
yes i got it thanks regards.
could you please do some lessons on English slang thanks
i like the way you think . you think always positive i really love your teaching this is my first lesson i really liked it thanks.
you’ll pass if you think positive.
I passed many difficult times in my life in past.
please tell me about these sentences are they correct.
Hi akmajs,
Your sentences correctly used the word pass and past. Here are some minor corrections:
You’ll pass if you think positively.
I passed many difficult times in my life in the past.
Bad lesson and bad teacher
Thank you for your valuable input. The person responsible has been sacked.
“The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don’t know anything about.”
Wayne Dyer
Great saying. This a true. This is a true.
hi yousef i think you are very mistaken
Hi there,
I wanna know what does it mean by
“freak me”,actually it was in a song.
Tx in advance.
Thank you so much you know the first time I learn very well , I have question what is the difference between most ,all most thanks
Hi Omar,
I plan to make a video on the difference between most and almost soon.
Almost means nearly. It is an adverb. Here are examples of almost:
Nowadays, almost everyone seems to have a tv. (“Everyone” would be 100% of people. “Almost everyone” might be 90% or 99% of the people, not 100%)
Almost every second of the movie was boring. Almost all of the explosions in the movie looked fake.
(Again it means maybe 90-99% of the movie was boring)
Notice that “almost” is before words like “all”, “everyone” and “every”.
“Most” is an adjective that means the majority. For example,
Most people have a tv.
Most teachers love to teach.
Notice that most is before a noun.

thanks so much to teacher emma for that lesson
Hello Emma,
To begin with, thank you very much for your lessons!
They are very helpful and interesting and I would really like you to keep it on. :)
——
Could you please help me with an issue I heard in this movie?
At 2:59 (mm:ss) of the movie timeline you said: “… the leader of Germany is a woman, past it leaders have all been men…” (I hope I wrote it properly :) ).
So the question is why the Present Perfect was used there (“…past it leaders have all been men…”).
As I understand, we stated the fact from the past, german men are not the leaders of Germany now, so this is not the true now.
I mean that there is no connection to the present time and consequently we use the Past Tense in such cases.
I am not a native speaker and differences between the Past Simple and the Present Perfect have always confused me.
Could you please clarify this case from the video why the Present Perfect tense was used as I am really confused.
Thank you in advance, Emma, and thank you for your work!
Take care!
Hello Emma,
could you please find some time to answer?
I suppose the answer would be intereting for many people…
Thanks!
Hi EmmA plz read this
I like the way you teach you are a native speaker so your speaking English sounds really good. If possible I want you to add more videos on how to speak english like a native speaker ın my opinion these kind of videos will help us to improve our speaking skills because some of us already good at grammar on the other hand have difficulties in speaking the language.
thanks for your effort :)

Hi Emma, i’d like to say Thank you very much for this lesson. I just learnt this lesson. it very useful to improve my english. in the past i usually confused to use these words. but now i could pass your test with scored 10 out of 10
It’s excellent! Please do a lesson about Cross Vs Across and Cause vs Because
Excelente! Por favor haz uno con las palabras Cross Vs Across y Cause vs Because.
Please delete my past comment.
I have a new version:
I have difficulty to pronounce S letter at the end of a word when the past word ends with S letter too.
For example:
ArchaeologiSTS Study.
In a fact the plural “..STS” is difficult by itself.
Please could you Do a lesson about that.
You are helping me TOO MUCH.
In other hand, writing this comment I got a new question:
May I write “The past word” and “the passed word”?
GRACIAS DESDE COLOMBIA.
Thanks a lot, Emma. Clearly undersood difference between past and passed. But I confuse their pronunciation. Are their pronunciation same?
Thanks a lot Emma, you are the best teacher.

Thank you very much emma,Iike the way of your teaching.I eager to learn more & more to improve my grammer.
thanks Emma you are very good teacher.
Hi Emma,
Thanks for the lesson. I have noticed so many people in my place they are grammatically or the pronunciation is not correct but they don’t stop speaking and end of the day people assume that they spoke very well. My problem is during conversation with others if noticed that I have made any mistake I tried to correct that and then people take it negatively and start speaking in local language to give me a comfort however I feel very embarrass that time. Please suggest your view to fix this problem :(
nice hair!
tnx, it was so clear.
if u plz ,could you tell me more about “ain’t” ; can we use it in all negative forms.tnx again.
sorry 4 mistakes
Excellent Emma, thank you very much…..and Happy new year

I have a question for you, Emma. Can “past” be used as an adverb? If the answer is “yes”, then what difference is there between these two sentences:
1- I passed the supermarket on my way to work
2- I went past the supermarket on my way to work

thanks emma.realla its was useful lesson about passe and past
Dear Professor Emma,
Diffrent topic – definit and indefinit article. IT IS NOT AN EASY TASK FOR NON NATIVE SPEAKERS.
I cannot find clear and practical feedback concerning “the” or “a” before nouns ending in -ing.
The only practical observation is that often the article is omitted.
I belive that you are a right person to make a proper and useful explanation.
Thank you in advance.
All the best to you and your family.
M
PS
It serems to me that it is better to say ” I belive that you are the right person ( actual talented teacher)to form a lesson and provide necessary examples.
rdgs.
This lesson was very interesting because I got the abstract idea and I could separate between verb , noun, adjective and preposition.
Thanks
I go 10 of 10 yupi!, i ´m very happy.
