  • Hi everybody.

  • Welcome to Beginner 1.

  • In these videos, I hope to  teach you some basic English.

  • So, these videos are for low level beginners.

  • Okay

  • Now when you watch these videos, I want you to pay attention.

  • Okay

  • Watch all the videos in the series.

  • Okay

  • Please listen carefully and if there are any words or expressions that you don't know,

  • please check your dictionary.

  • Another thing you should do is repeat after me.

  • Repeating is a really good practice.

  • Okay

  • So, I know that some of these videos are hard.

  • But please don't give up.

  • If you try your best, and watch all of these videos,

  • I know that your English will get better.

  • Okay, well let's get started.

  • Hi, everybody and welcome to this video.

  • Now in this video, I want to talk about the difference between consonants and vowels.

  • Now, in the English alphabetthere are twenty-six letters.

  • And in the alphabet, there are five main vowels and one special vowel.

  • And the rest are consonants.

  • So, let's look at the board.

  • Here's the alphabet.

  • The first letter, 'a', is a vowel.

  • The next letter, 'b', is a consonant.

  • 'c' is a consonant.

  • 'd' consonant.

  • 'e' is a vowel.

  • Then, 'f', is a consonant.

  • 'g' consonant.

  • 'h' consonant.

  • 'i' is another vowel.

  • 'j' is a consonant.

  • 'k' consonant.

  • 'l', 'm', 'n' are consonants.

  • 'o' is another vowel.

  • 'p', 'q', 'r', 's' and 't', these are all consonants.

  • 'u' is the last main vowel.

  • 'v' consonant.

  • 'w' consonant.

  • 'x' consonant.

  • 'y' is the special vowel.

  • And we'll talk about that more later on.

  • And 'z' is the last letter, and it is a consonant.

  • Okay, so, there are twenty-six  letters in the alphabet.

  • There are five main vowels.

  • One special vowel.

  • And the rest are consonant.

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Let's look at some words.

  • Now all English words have vowels.

  • Maybe one or many vowels.

  • So, let's look at these words.

  • The first word iscat”.

  • Okay, we have 'c' is a consonant.

  • 'a' a vowel.

  • 't' consonant.

  • Egg”.

  • 'e' is a vowel.

  • And 'g', 'g'.

  • 'g' is a consonant.

  • Hit”.

  • 'h' is a consonant.

  • 'i' a vowel.

  • And 't' a consonant.

  • Top”.

  • 't' is a consonant.

  • 'o' is a vowel.

  • And 'p' a consonant.

  • The last word iscut”.

  • 'c' is a consonant.

  • 'u' a vowel.

  • And 't' a consonant.

  • So, we have the main vowels: 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'.

  • Now, I said 'y' is a special vowel.

  • That's because sometimes it's a vowel and sometimes it's a consonant.

  • So, let's look.

  • In the word, “why”,

  • the letter 'y' sounds like 'i'.

  • Why”.

  • So, it is a vowel.

  • Bicycle”.

  • The letter 'y' sounds like 'i'.

  • Bicycle”.

  • 'i' is the letter 'i', right, it sounds like the letter 'i'.

  • So, in this case 'y' is also a vowel.

  • Pretty”.

  • Pretty”.

  • 'y' sounds like 'e'.

  • Okay

  • Pretty”.

  • So, it's a vowel.

  • Now, in the last two words,

  • youandyes”, the letter 'y' is a consonant.

  • Usually, if 'y' comes at the beginning of a word,

  • or if it makes a /u/ sound,

  • for example, “you”, “yes”,

  • it is a consonant. Okay

  • So again, five main vowels: 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'.

  • And 'y' the special vowel.

  • Now to help us remember vowels, we can say, “a, e, i, o, u and sometimes y.”

  • Okay, repeat again after me.

  • “a, e, i, o, u and sometimes y.”

  • One more time, faster.

  • “a, e, i, o, u and sometimes y.”

  • Okay, and that's the end of this video. Thank you.

  • Hi everybody and welcome to this video.

  • In this video, we're going to  talk about using 'a' or 'an'.

  • Okay.

  • We use 'a' or 'an' in front of nouns.

  • Well, what is a noun?

  • A noun is a person, place, thing, or animal.

  • Okay, so let's look at the board.

  • The first noun we have isbanana”.

  • banana”, starts with the consonant 'b'.

  • So, we put “a banana”.

  • “a banana”.

  • Look at the next word. “Apple”.

  • In this case, the first letter is 'a'.

  • 'a' is a vowel.

  • Remember the vowels are a, e, i, o, u,

  • so we have to put 'an'.

  • an apple”.

  • cat”. Hmmm.

  • The first letter, 'c', is a consonant.

  • So, should we put, 'a' or 'an'?

  • Remember, if it's a consonant, we have to put 'a'.

  • “a cat”.

  • The next word, “boy”.

  • Again, the word starts with a consonant: 'b'.

  • So, we have to say, “a boy”.

  • The next word, “egg”, has the letter 'e' in front.

  • 'e' is a vowel.

  • So, what do we put?

  • We put 'an'.

  • If we read it, it sounds likean egg.”

  • an egg”.

  • Okay, and the last word isant”.

  • antstarts with the vowel 'a'.

  • So again, we must put……”an ant”.

  • an ant”.

  • Now, let's go through these words together.

  • “a banana”. “a banana”.

  • an apple”. “an apple”.

  • Keep in mind that when you have 'an' in front,

  • it has to sound like almost one word.

  • an apple”. “an apple”.

  • “a cat”. “a cat”.

  • “a boy”. “a boy”.

  • an egg”. “an egg”.

  • an egg”.

  • Again, it sounds like one word.

  • "an egg". 

  • "an ant" "an ant"

  • "an ant"

  • Okay. Let's move on the next part.

  • Okay, let's do some extra practice.

  • Ahhh, I have some nouns on the board.

  • Remember, a noun is a person, place, thing or animal.

  • So let's go through them one by one.

  • “a book”, “bookis a thing.

  • It's a thing that we read.

  • park”, is a place. It's a place we go.

  • umbrellais a thing.

  • Right. Umbrella is a thing that we use when it's raining.

  • elephant”. “elephantis an animal.

  • doctor”. “doctoris a person.

  • Andorange”. "orange" is a thing that we eat.

  • Okay. Now, I'm going to say 'a' or 'an' in front of the nouns.

  • I want you to listen and see if you can hear the difference.

  • Okay

  • We havebook”.

  • In that case we say, “a book”. “a book”.

  • We have to say, “a book”.

  • Okay

  • The next one ispark”.

  • We say, “a park”. “a park”.

  • Remember, we put 'a' in front of words that begin with consonants.

  • 'b' and 'p' are consonants.

  • That's why we say, “a book”, “a park”.

  • Okay

  • How about the next word?

  • an umbrella”.

  • an umbrella”.

  • Could you here the difference? “an umbrella”.

  • We say 'an' because umbrella starts with a vowel: 'u'.

  • an umbrella”.

  • Okay… “elephant”.

  • We should we say?

  • an elephant”. “an elephant”.

  • Again, 'elephant' starts with a vowel.

  • “a doctor”. “a doctor”.

  • “a doctor”.

  • And the last word, “an orange”. “an orange”.

  • Again, we have to say, “an orangebecause 'o' is a vowel.

  • So, let's go through each word one more time.

  • “a book”. “a book”.

  • Okay

  • “a park”. “a park”.

  • an umbrella”. “an umbrella”.

  • Notice it sounds like one word.

  • an umbrella”.

  • an elephant” “an elephant

  • “a doctor” “a doctor

  • And the last one.

  • an orange” “an orange

  • Okay. So that's the end of this video.

  • I hope you can remember when to use 'a' and 'an'.

  • Okay, thank you. Bye.

  • Hi, everybody and welcome to this video.

  • Now, in this lesson I'm going to talk about singular and plural nouns.

  • Okay. Singular means one.

  • And plural means more than one or many.

  • Okay. So let's look at the board.

  • This part is showing singular nouns.

  • Okay, remember, singular means one.

  • Okay.

  • So when the noun is singular, we put 'a' or 'an'.

  • So let's look.

  • “a ring

  • That means one ring. “a ring

  • “a dogAgain, one dog.

  • “a dog

  • “a teacherOne teacher.

  • “a teacher

  • an apple” “an apple

  • One apple.

  • an egg” “an egg

  • One egg.

  • So again, one…. noun is singular.

  • Okay. Now over here, we have plural nouns.

  • Plural means more than one. Two, three, four, and so on.

  • So, many. Okay.

  • So, when we have a plural noun, we have to,

  • don't forget, we have to put 's' or 'es'.

  • Again, if there's more than one,

  • if the noun is plural,

  • you have to put 's' or 'es'.

  • Now the nouns here, you just have to add an 's'.

  • Okay, and we're going to  go through them right now.

  • two rings”.

  • Okay, we had one ring. “a ring”.

  • Now we havetwo rings.” With an 's'.

  • Okay.

  • We had “a dog”.

  • The plural isthree dogs”.

  • Again, 's' “three dogs

  • “a teacherOne teacher

  • four teachers” “four teachers

  • Don't forget the 's'.

  • Okay, you must not forget that.

  • an apple”. That's one apple.

  • Then we have plural. “five apples

  • five apples

  • Okay. And the last one.

  • an egg”. One egg.

  • six eggs

  • Don't forget 's'. “six eggs

  • Okay. I really need you to remember that.

  • two rings

  • three dogs

  • four teachers

  • five apples

  • andsix eggs”.

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Now we have some more nouns.

  • These nouns are a little bit different.

  • Uhhh, when they're singular it's the same.

  • You put 'a' or 'an' in front.

  • But when you want to make them  plural, you have to add 'es'.

  • Remember, I said, you can add 's' or 'es' to make a noun pluralmore than one.

  • So again, these nouns you have to add 'es'.

  • So let's go through them one more time.

  • Okay. So we have “a bus”.

  • “a bus

  • Again, that means one bus.

  • “a box” “a box

  • “a watch” “a watch

  • Okay, one.

  • “a kiss” “a kiss

  • Andan ax”. “an ax

  • One. “an ax

  • Okay. Now, we're going to move on to the plural.

  • Remember, again, to make the plural, or more 

  • than one, here, we add 'es'. Okay.

  • “a busOne.

  • two buses” “two buses

  • “a box

  • three boxes” “three boxes

  • “a watch”. “four watches

  • 'es' right. “four watches

  • “a kissOne.

  • five kisses” “five kisses

  • Add the 'es'.

  • And the last one.

  • an ax” “an ax

  • Okay, we havesix axes”. “six axes

  • So don't forget. We have to put  

  • 'es' to make these nouns plural.

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • So, how do we know if we should put 's' or 'es' to make the noun plural?

  • Well, for most nouns, you just have to put 's'.

  • Okay, for most of them.

  • But, for some, you have to put 'es'. And how do we know?

  • Well

  • Let's look at the board. We have some nouns.

  • The first one ischurch”. Okay.

  • Churchends in 'ch'.

  • So if the noun ends in 'ch', you have to put 'es'.

  • Okay. So it becomeschurches”.

  • So again, if the noun ends in 'ch',

  • add 'es' at the end to make it plural.

  • The same goes for the next wordbrush”.

  • You'll noticebrushends in 'sh'. Okay.

  • So if it ends in 'sh', same thing, we add 'es' at the end to make it plural.

  • Okay. The next word is 'fox'.

  • We have the letter 'x' at the end. Okay.

  • All nouns that end in 'x', we have to put 'es' to make it plural.

  • Okay, so, 'ch', 'sh', 'x'.

  • If the noun ends with these, put 'es'.

  • And the last one isdress”.

  • Okay, we have 'ss' at the end.

  • Same thing.

  • Put 'es' at the end to make it plural.

  • Okay. “dresses

  • Again, if it ends in 'ss' put 'es'.

  • Okay, so please, don't  forget 'ch', 'sh', 'x', 'ss', 

  • we must put 'es' at the end.

  • Most of the other nouns we just add 's'.

  • Okay. Now we have some special nouns on this side.

  • Potato, tomato, volcano”.

  • Now, most nouns that end in 'o', likephoto”,

  • all we have to do is add an 's' to make it plural.

  • photos”. Okay.

  • But these are special because we actually 

  • have to put 'es' at the endto make themplural.

  • Okay. So we havepotatoes, tomatoes, volcanoes”.

  • Again, these are a little bit special.

  • For most nouns that end in 'o', we just add 's'.

  • Okay, and, uhhh, let's go to the final part.

  • Okay, let's do some extra practice.

  • On the board, I have some nouns.

  • Some are singular and some are plural.

  • We have to decide together  if we should put 's' or 'es'

  • or make them singular. Okay.

  • So you have to listen carefully and  remember what we learned in this video.

  • Okay. “two books

  • Right, this is plural. There are two.

  • two booksWe have to put an 's'.

  • two books

  • Okay. The next one.

  • three classHmmmm.

  • classends with an 's'. So what do we put?

  • three classes” “three classes

  • Okay. So again the plural isthree classes”.

  • Okay

  • “a lion” “a lion

  • Do we have to put anything? No.

  • No 's' or 'es' because this is singular. There's just one lion.

  • “a lion

  • six hats” “six hats

  • We have to put an 's'. “six hats

  • Okay. The next noun isseven match”.

  • What do we put?

  • Well, we have a 'ch'. So we have to putmatches”.

  • seven matches” “seven matches

  • Okay. And the last one isone bat”.

  • one bat”.

  • We do not put an 's' or 'es' because again, it's just one.

  • We don't have to put anything after 'bat'.

  • Okay, this is singular.

  • Okay, so, in this video, we learned how to make a noun singular.

  • Okay. And how to make a noun plural.

  • Remember, singular means one. Plural means more than one.

  • And remember, don't forget, we have to put 

  • 's' or 'es'. Okay.

  • And thanks for joining. That's the end of this video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi everybody and welcome to this video.

  • In this video, we're going to  talk about subjective pronouns.

  • So, let's take a look at the board.

  • Here they are. The subjective pronouns.

  • Please take a careful look. They're very important in English.

  • Okay. So, the first subjective pronoun is 'I'.

  • “I” means me. “I'm Esther”.

  • I

  • He Now, “heis only used for boys or men.

  • Okay. He

  • So another boy or man ishe”.

  • Sheis used for girls or women.

  • Okay. She

  • ItIt”  

  • is used for a place like a school, an animal like a dog, or a thing like a chair.

  • Okay. It

  • The next one isyou”. “Youmeans you.

  • Okay. “you”.

  • WeWemeans other people and me.

  • For example, “I sing”, “you sing”, thenwe sing”.

  • Okay. “we”.

  • And the last one isthey”.

  • Theymeans many peopleplaces, animals or things.

  • Okay. So, more than one.

  • If there's more than one, we use  the subjective pronoun 'they'.

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, so let's practice together  with subjective pronouns.

  • The first sentence on the  board says, “Jenny sings”.

  • Now Jenny is one girl.

  • So we can say, “She sings”.

  • Jack sings”. Jack is one boy.

  • So we have to say, “he sings”.

  • The last sentence says, “Jenny and Jack sing”.

  • Now Jenny and Jack are two people.

  • So we have to say, “they sing”.

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, let's do some more practice.

  • The first sentence on the board says,

  • The cat runs”.

  • 'The cat' is an animal, so we have to say, “It runs”.

  • The next sentence says, “The dog and cat run”.

  • Now, 'the dog and cat', they are two animals.

  • So anytime you have two or more  things, we say, “They run”.

  • 'They'.

  • Okay, now, for the last sentence, I'm  going to talk about my cat, Ongee.

  • Ongee is a cat. He's an animal.

  • But he has a name. He's a boy cat.

  • Okay and I love him. And he's like family.

  • So, “Ongee runs”. I can sayHe runs”.

  • Okay. Let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, here are some more examples.

  • But, this time, you have to figure out the subjective pronoun together with me.

  • Okay. So, “My students study”.

  • What should we use?

  • Well, 'My students', there's an 's'. Right.

  • They're people and there's more than one.

  • Many people.

  • So we have to use the subjective pronoun, 'they'.

  • They study”.

  • The next example.

  • John is handsome”.

  • Okay, 'John', that's a person.

  • There's only one. Right

  • And it's a boy, 'John'.

  • So what should we use?

  • We have to use the subjective pronoun, 'he'.

  • One boy. We say, “he”.

  • He is handsome”.

  • Okay, the last one. “Pizza is delicious”.

  • 'Pizza' is a thing.

  • And there's only one. Right.

  • There's no 's'. One pizza.

  • We say, “it”.

  • It is delicious”. Okay.

  • Let's move on to some more examples.

  • Okay, the first example says,

  • Seoul is a city”.

  • Now, 'Seoul' is a place. Okay.

  • So we have to use the subjective pronoun, 'it'.

  • It is a city”.

  • The next example says,

  • My parents love Ongee”.

  • Now, 'Ongee' is my cat. “My parents love Ongee”.

  • Well, 'my parents', they are two people. My mom and my dad.

  • So, what do I use?

  • I have to say, “they”. “They love Ongee”.

  • The last example is very  similar to the second one.

  • My parents and I love Ongee”. Okay.

  • The difference isit says, “and I”.

  • So this is 'my parents' with 'me'.

  • So I have to say, “we”. “We love Ongee”.

  • Okay. All of us.

  • Okay, so, in this video we  learned about subjective pronouns.

  • I hope you guys have a good understanding  of 'when' and 'how' to use them.

  • Thank you for watching and I'll see you guys next time.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody. Welcome to this video.

  • Now, in this video, we're going to talk about subjective pronouns,

  • 'be' verbs, and also, contractions.

  • So let's take a look at the board.

  • Okay. First, we have the subjective pronouns.

  • And we have the 'be' verbs: am, is, and are.

  • Okay. So let's look at the first one.

  • “I am”. “I am Esther”.

  • The contraction for 'I am' is 'I'm'.

  • “I'm”.

  • Now, a contraction is a more common way of saying subjective pronouns and their 'be' verb.

  • It's faster and quicker and shorter.

  • Okay, it's more common.

  • I want you to use contractions. Okay.

  • So, “I ambecomes “I'm”.

  • He is” – “he's”.

  • She is” - “she's”.

  • It is” - “it's”.

  • Okay, let's move on to the bottom.

  • You arebecomesyou're”.

  • You're”.

  • We are” – “we're”. “We're”.

  • andThey are”. The contraction isthey're”.

  • They're”.

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay.

  • We're going to take a look at some sentences using the 'be' verbs.

  • Now, notice on the board,  I only used contractions.

  • Okay.

  • For example, instead of “I am”, I'm going to say “I'm”.

  • So, the first sentence. “I'm a student”.

  • Okay. This means one.

  • So we have to say, “a student”.

  • “a”

  • Now many people make the mistake of saying,

  • “I'm student”, but that's wrong. Okay.

  • You have to put 'a'.

  • Now, before I read it, you  have to listen carefully.

  • 'I'm a' - sounds like one word.

  • “I'm a…” “I'm a…”

  • “I'm a student”.

  • Okay. Please repeat after me.

  • “I'm a student”. “I'm a student”.

  • Okay, the next one, again, sounds like one word.

  • He's a…”. “He's a…”.

  • Okay.so… “He's a student”.

  • Please repeat.

  • He's a student”. “He's a student”.

  • Same thing.

  • She's a student”.

  • Please repeat.

  • She's a student”. “She's a student”.

  • Okay. The next sentence has 'it'.

  • Now remember, 'it' is only used for a place, a thing or an animal.

  • So we can't have those things be a student.

  • So we have to say, “It's a dog”.

  • Okay, please repeat.

  • It's a dog”. “It's a dog”.

  • Okay, the next one.

  • You're a student”. Please repeat.

  • You're a student”. “You're a student”.

  • Okay. Now let's look at 'we're'.

  • We're students”. Okay.

  • We took out the 'a' and we put an 's'

  • because 'we're' means many people.

  • Not one student, but many students.

  • So, we have to say, “we're students”.

  • Please repeat.

  • We're students”. “We're students”.

  • The same thing goes for 'they'.

  • Again, 'they' means many peopleor many things.

  • Here, we put 's'. And we took out the 'a'.

  • So, “they're students”.

  • Please repeat.

  • They're students”. “They're students”.

  • Okay, we're going to look at some more examples.

  • Please listen and repeat carefully.

  • Let's start with the first one: “I'm”.

  • “I'm a boy”. “I'm a boy”.

  • “I'm a girl”. “I'm a girl”.

  • He's”.

  • He's a man”. “He's a man”.

  • He's a boy”. “He's a boy”.

  • She's”.

  • She's a woman”. “She's a woman”.

  • She's a girl”. “She's a girl”.

  • It's”.

  • It's a chair”. “It's a chair”.

  • It's a cat”. “It's a cat”.

  • You're”.

  • You're a singer”. “You're a singer”.

  • You're a friend”. “You're a friend”.

  • We're”.

  • We're sisters”. “We're sisters”.

  • We're brothers”. “We're brothers”.

  • They're”.

  • They're people”. “They're people”.

  • They're cars”. “They're cars”.

  • Well I hope that this video helped you understand

  • how to use subjective pronouns,

  • their 'be' verbs, and also contractions.

  • Now, before we go, I wanted to sharelittle bit about myself using the lesson.

  • So, first, remember, “I'm a…”.

  • “I'm a girl”.

  • Also, “I'm a teacher”.

  • “I'm an American”.

  • Now, the word 'Americanstarts with the vowel 'a',

  • so we have to say 'an'.

  • “I'm an American”.

  • And “I'm an animal lover”.

  • Again, same thing.

  • 'Animal' starts with the vowel 'a',

  • so we have to put 'an'.

  • “I'm an animal lover”.

  • And that means someone who loves animals.

  • I love dogs and cats and other animals.

  • So, “I'm an animal lover”.

  • Okay.

  • Well, that's it and thank you for watching.

  • And I'll see you guys next time.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going to talk about subjective pronouns,

  • 'be' verbs,

  • and how to use them with the word 'not'.

  • Okay. So, let's look at the board to help us out.

  • Now the first sentence says, “I'm not a student”.

  • 'Not' means it's not true.

  • No.

  • So remember, “I'm a studentmeans 'yes'.

  • “I'm a student”.

  • I go to school, and I learn.

  • “I'm not a studentmeans 'no'.

  • “I'm a teacherorNo, I'm not a student”.

  • Okay.

  • Now, notice, we first have the subjective pronoun and the 'be' verb.

  • Then, we put 'not'.

  • Okay.

  • 'Not' comes after.

  • And then we have the noun.

  • Okay.

  • “I'm not a student”.

  • Okay.

  • Now, also, listen carefully.

  • Not a…” sounds like one word.

  • “I'm not a student”.

  • Not a…”.

  • “I'm not a student”.

  • Okay, let's look at the next one.

  • He's not a student”.

  • He's not a student”.

  • She's not a student”.

  • She's not a student”.

  • It's not a dog”.

  • Remember, 'it' is used for place, thing or animal.

  • So, “It's not a dog”.

  • Okay.

  • You're not a student”.

  • You're not a student”.

  • Okay, the next one is a little bit different.

  • We have 'we are'.

  • We're”.

  • Now, remember, 'we' means more than one.

  • Many.

  • Okay.

  • So we saystudents”.

  • We put an 's' and we don't put an 'a' in front.

  • We're not students”.

  • We're not students”.

  • Okay. And 'they're' is the same thing.

  • It means more than one.

  • So, “They're not students”.

  • They're not students”.

  • Okay, we're going to look at some more examples.

  • I want you to listen carefully and repeat after the examples.

  • Let's start with the first one.

  • “I'm not”.

  • “I'm not a boy”.

  • “I'm not a boy”.

  • “I'm not a girl”.

  • “I'm not a girl”.

  • He's not”.

  • He's not a man”.

  • They're not cars”.

  • They're not cars”.

  • Okay, so in this video, we learned how to use subjective pronouns

  • with the 'be' verb

  • and how to use them with the word 'not'. Okay.

  • So, I wrote some sentences about  myself using what we learned.

  • So remember, “I'm not a…”.

  • Okay.

  • “I'm not a boy”.

  • “I'm not a boy”.

  • “I'm not a student”.

  • “I'm not a student”.

  • “I'm not a Canadian”.

  • “I'm not a Canadian”.

  • And the last one.

  • “I'm not a loser”.

  • “I'm not a loser”.

  • Okay.

  • So that was a little bit about me.

  • Thanks for watching and  I'll see you guys next time.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, I'm going to talk about how to make questions using subjective pronouns

  • and 'be' verbs.

  • Okay.

  • So, let's take a look at the board.

  • So, this example sentence says.

  • “I'm a student”.

  • Okay.

  • Remember, “I'm” is just a contraction for “I am”.

  • Okay.

  • So, “I'm a student”.

  • “I am a student”.

  • They mean the same thing.

  • Now when we want to make a question,

  • we just have to make a simple  change. It's very easy.

  • All you have to do is put  the 'be' verb in the front.

  • Okay.

  • So, “Am I a student?”.

  • Am I a student?”.

  • The 'be' verb comes in the front.

  • Okay.

  • I also want you to listen to my intonation.

  • When I say it in a sentence, “I'm a student”.

  • “I'm a student”.

  • Okay, then when I say it in a question.

  • Am I a student?”.

  • Am I a student?”.

  • Notice my intonation goes up for the question.

  • Okay, now there are two possible answers for this question.

  • Am I a student?”.

  • The answers you can say are: “Yes, I am”.

  • Yes, I am”.

  • Okay.

  • And, “No, I'm not”.

  • No, I'm not”.

  • Okay.

  • We're going to look at some more examples.

  • Please make sure you repeat after each example.

  • Let's look at the first one.

  • Am I…?”.

  • Am I a girl?”.

  • Yes, I am”.

  • Am I a boy?”.

  • No, I'm not”.

  • Am I a singer?”.

  • Yes, I am”.

  • Am I a friend?”.

  • No, I'm not”.

  • Now, we're going to talk abouthe isandshe isand how to use them in questions.

  • So let's look at the sentence on the board.

  • He's a doctor”.

  • Or

  • She's a doctor”.

  • Remember, “he's” andshe's” are contractions forhe isandshe is”.

  • The 'be' verb there is 'is'.

  • So, when we make a question, we have to move the 'be' verb to the front.

  • Okay.

  • So we put 'is' in the front.

  • Is he a doctor?”.

  • Is she a doctor?”.

  • Okay.

  • Very easy.

  • Just put the 'be' verb in the front.

  • Now I want you to listen to the intonation again.

  • He's a doctor”.

  • Okay.

  • The intonation is going down.

  • Is he a doctor?”.

  • In the question, again, the intonation goes up.

  • Okay.

  • Now when you answer, they are several possible answers you can give.

  • So

  • Yes, he is”.

  • Or

  • Yes, she is”.

  • Okay.

  • That's easy.

  • When you come to know, this is where it gets a little tricky, but you can do it.

  • No, he isn't”.

  • Okay, “isn't” is a contraction foris not”.

  • Okay.

  • No, he isn't”.

  • Or

  • No, she isn't”.

  • Okay, so you can useshe isn't”, “he isn't”.

  • Another answer you can give isNo, he's not”.

  • Or

  • No, she's not”.

  • You already know this is a contraction for 'he is' and 'she is'.

  • So, “No, he's not”.

  • No, she's not”.

  • Okay.

  • So these are both common.

  • And they're both ok to use.

  • Okay.

  • So, remember, we can give two  different answers for 'no'.

  • Alright, now we're going to  look at some more examples.

  • Please make sure you repeat after each example.

  • Is he…?”, “Is she…?”.

  • Is he a man?”

  • Yes, he is”.

  • Is he a cowboy?”.

  • No, he isn't.”

  • Is she a woman?”

  • Yes, she is”.

  • Is she a cowgirl?”.

  • No, she's not.

  • Now, we're going to move on to 'it is'.

  • Okay.

  • And how to use that in a question.

  • So, let's look at the board.

  • It's a dog”.

  • Okay, we have the contractionit's”.

  • Remember, “it's” is a contraction forit is”.

  • The 'be' verb is 'is'.

  • When we make a question, remember, we have to put the 'be' verb in the front.

  • Is it a dog?”

  • Is it a dog?”

  • Okay.

  • The intonation goes up for the question.

  • Is it a dog?”

  • Okay.

  • Now, there are several answers you can give.

  • The first one isYes, it is”.

  • Yes, it is”.

  • Okay.

  • When you sayno”, you can give two answers.

  • No, it isn't”.

  • No, it isn't”.

  • Remember, “isn't” is a contraction foris not”.

  • Okay.

  • We can also sayNo, it's not”.

  • No, it's not”.

  • It's” is a contraction forit is”.

  • Okay.

  • So again, remember, we have these two answers for 'no', but they're both common and

  • they're both ok to use when you sayno”.

  • Okay.

  • We're going to look at some more examples.

  • Please make sure you follow  and repeat after each one.

  • Is it…?”.

  • Is it a book?”.

  • Yes, it is”.

  • Is it a chair?”.

  • No, it isn't”.

  • Is it a shoe?”.

  • Yes, it is”.

  • Is it a car?”.

  • No, it's not”.

  • Now, we're going to move on toyou areand put that in a question.

  • Okay.

  • On the board the sentence says.

  • You're a boy”.

  • Remember, “you'reis a contraction foryou are”.

  • The 'be' verb is 'are'.

  • So we have to put that in  the front of the question.

  • Are you a boy?”

  • Are you a boy?”

  • Okay.

  • When we answer, it's very simple.

  • We can say, “Yes, I amorNo, I'm not”.

  • Okay.

  • We're going to look at some more examples.

  • Please follow and repeat after each one.

  • Are you…?”

  • Are you a Korean?”

  • Yes, I am.”

  • Are you a clown?”

  • No, I'm not.”

  • Are you a nurse?”

  • Yes, I am.”

  • Are you a dancer?”

  • No, I'm not.”

  • Now, let's talk aboutwe areand how to use that in a question.

  • Okay.

  • So the sentence here says, “We're teachers”.

  • Okay.

  • We'reis a contraction fromwe are”.

  • So the 'be' verb 'are' goes in the front.

  • Are we teachers?”

  • Are we teachers?”

  • Okay.

  • When we answer, we can say several things.

  • Yes, we are.”

  • Yes, we are.”

  • Or

  • No, we aren't.”

  • Listen… “aren't.”

  • No, we aren't.”

  • Aren't” is a contraction forare not”.

  • Or we can say, “No, we're not”.

  • No, we're not”.

  • And you knowWe'reiscontraction forwe are”.

  • Okay.

  • We're going to look at some more examples.

  • Please repeat after each one.

  • Are we…?”

  • Are we boys?”

  • Yes, we are.”

  • Are we girls?”

  • No, we aren't.”

  • Are we friends?”

  • Yes, we are.”

  • Are we pro-gamers?”

  • No, we aren't.”

  • Now, we're moving on to 'they are' in a question.

  • The sentence on the board says, “They're friends”.

  • Remember, 'They're' iscontraction for 'they are'.

  • The 'be' verb 'are' goes in the front of the question.

  • Are they friends?”

  • Are they friends?”

  • Okay.

  • Now when we answer, we can say, “Yes, they are.”

  • Yes, they are.”

  • Or, we can say, “No, they aren't.”

  • No, they aren't.”

  • 'Aren't' is a contraction for 'are not'.

  • The last thing we can say isNo, they're not”.

  • No, they're not.”

  • 'They're' is a contraction for 'they are'.

  • These two answers for 'no' are both correct.

  • And they're both common.

  • So you can say either one.

  • Okay.

  • We're going to look at some more examples now.

  • Please repeat after each example.

  • Are they…?”

  • Are they tourists?”

  • Yes, they are.”

  • Are they dogs?”

  • No, they aren't.”

  • Are they computers?”

  • Yes, they are.”

  • Are they birds?”

  • No, they're not.”

  • Okay.

  • In this lesson, we learned how to change

  • subjective pronoun and a  'be' verb into a question.

  • Remember, when you're making a question, you have to put the 'b' verb in the beginning.

  • Okay.

  • Alright, that's the end of this video.

  • Thanks for watching.

  • Bye.

  • Okay, so this is a review video.

  • We learned about subjective  pronouns and 'be' verbs.

  • We also learned how to use them in a negative sentence and in a question.

  • So, let's look at the board for review.

  • “I am a teacher.”

  • Remember, 'am' is the 'be' verb.

  • “I am a teacher.”

  • Okay, we also learned contractions: “I'm”.

  • “I'm a teacher.”

  • “I'm a teacher.”

  • Okay, this is a negative sentence.

  • “I'm not a teacher.”

  • “I'm not a teacher.”

  • Remember, 'not' goes after the 'be' verb.

  • Okay.

  • And here's a question.

  • Am I a teacher?”

  • Am I a teacher?”

  • Remember, the 'be' verb comes in the front for a question.

  • Okay.

  • We're going to listen to some more examples.

  • I want you to repeat after each one.

  • Okay.

  • Let's look at some examples.

  • He is a king.”

  • He is a king.”

  • He's a king.”

  • He's a king.”

  • He's not a king.”

  • He's not a king.”

  • Is he a king?”

  • Is he a king?”

  • Next.

  • She is a queen.”

  • She is a queen.”

  • She's a queen.”

  • She's a queen.”

  • She's not a queen.”

  • She's not a queen.”

  • Is she a queen?”

  • Is she a queen?”

  • Next.

  • It is a monkey.”

  • It is a monkey.”

  • It's a monkey.”

  • It's a monkey.”

  • It's not a monkey.”

  • It's not a monkey.”

  • Is it a monkey?”

  • Is it a monkey?”

  • Next.

  • You are a cook.”

  • You are a cook.”

  • You're a cook.”

  • You're a cook.”

  • You're not a cook.”

  • You're not a cook.”

  • Are you a cook?”

  • Are you a cook?”

  • Next.

  • We are friends.”

  • We are friends.”

  • We're friends.”

  • We're friends.”

  • We're not friends.”

  • We're not friends.”

  • Are we friends?”

  • Are we friends?”

  • And last.

  • They are monkeys.”

  • They are monkeys.”

  • They're monkeys.”

  • They're monkeys.”

  • They're not monkeys.”

  • They're not monkeys.”

  • Are they monkeys?”

  • Are they monkeys?”

  • So that was our review of subjective pronouns,

  • 'be' verbs,

  • how to use them with 'not',

  • and how to use them in questions.

  • I really hope that you repeated  each example that I gave

  • because pronunciation is very important.

  • Now, if you didn't, you should go back and watch it again and repeat.

  • Okay. Well that's all. Thank you.

  • Bye.

  • This is a checkup for subjective pronouns and 'be' verbs.

  • Let's take a look at the board.

  • The first sentence.

  • “___, are bags.”

  • Now, bags are things.

  • So we can't sayheorsheor, you know, any of those.

  • We have to useitorthey”.

  • Now, we haveare….

  • bags”.

  • With an 's'.

  • So that means more than one.

  • We have to use 'they'.

  • They are bags.”

  • Okay.

  • The next sentence we have an animal.

  • “____ is a dog.”

  • Okay.

  • But just one.

  • Right? 'a' dog.

  • So this time we use 'it'.

  • It is a dog.”

  • Now let's look at these two.

  • The girl is an artist.”

  • We have 'the girl'.

  • What is the subjective pronoun for one girl?

  • She.”

  • She is an artist.”

  • These two sentences have the same meaning.

  • They're the same.

  • Okay, and on the bottom, we have a question.

  • When we ask a question, we have to put the 'be' verb first.

  • Are ___ pandas?”

  • Are ___ pandas?”

  • With an 's'.

  • That means more than one.

  • So, we say, “they”.

  • Are they pandas?”

  • Yes, ____ are.”

  • Again plural.

  • So we just use the same.

  • They.” “Yes, they are.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, now we're going to focus on negatives and questions.

  • Okay, the first sentence says,

  • “I'm a student”.

  • Okay, “I am…I'm a student”.

  • Okay.

  • What if I'm a teacher?

  • Okay, it's not true.

  • I need 'not'.

  • Right

  • Remember, 'not' goes after the 'be' verb.

  • “I amam not.”

  • And then the noun. “…a student.”

  • “I'm not a student.”

  • Okay.

  • They are teachers.”

  • Okay.

  • And now we have some other people...

  • and that's not true.

  • They are not teachers.”

  • Again, after the 'be' verb 'are' and before the noun 'teachers'.

  • They are not teachers.”

  • Okay.

  • Now, I'm going to ask you a question.

  • And you have to answer.

  • Are you a student?”

  • Are you a student?”

  • Well, you're taking my classyou're learning English.

  • So, “Yes, I am.”

  • Okay, you should say, “Yes, I am.”

  • But how about this one?

  • Are you a monkey?”

  • Are you a monkey?”

  • Of course the answer isNo, I'm not”.

  • No, I'm not”.

  • Okay, let's move on to the last part.

  • Now for this last part, we're going to look at some sentences,

  • but there's something wrong  in all of these sentences.

  • So you have to find the mistakes.

  • The first sentence says, “I'm student”.

  • Okay, look, “student”.

  • There's no 's'.

  • That means just one.

  • Just one.

  • So remember, if there's just  one, we have to put 'a'.

  • “I'm a student.”

  • Let's look at the next one.

  • They are student”.

  • Okay.

  • This one says, “They are”.

  • This means there is more than one.

  • More than one student.

  • So, what do we have to do?

  • We have to sayThey are….

  • students”.

  • We have to put an 's' to show there's more than one student.

  • She aren't a baby.”

  • She.”

  • That's one person.

  • One girl or woman.

  • “…a baby.”

  • That's one person.

  • But we putaren't”.

  • Now that's wrong.

  • We have to say... 'isn't'.

  • She isn't a baby”.

  • You isn't a cat”.

  • Now, for the subjective pronoun 'you',

  • we have to have the 'be' verb 'are'.

  • So notYou isn't a cat”,  butYou aren't... a cat”.

  • You aren't a cat.”

  • Okay.

  • Are it a cat?”

  • Okay. “…a cat.”

  • That's one animal.

  • So, do we need 'are'?

  • No, we need the 'be' verb 'is'.

  • Is it a cat?”

  • Is it a cat?”

  • Okay, so that was the checkup for subjective pronouns and 'be' verbs.

  • I hope you guys understood and I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going to learn how to  make questions using 'what' and 'be' verbs

  • Okay. Now when we have one thing,

  • we have to use the 'be' verb 'is'.

  • What is it?”

  • What is it?”

  • It is a watch.”

  • It is a watch.”

  • It's one thing, so I have to say 'a'.

  • “a watch.”

  • I can also use the contraction for 'it is',

  • it's”.

  • Okay, now listen.

  • It's a ….”

  • It's a ….”

  • It's a watch.”

  • It's a watch.”

  • What is it?”

  • What is it?”

  • It's a marker.”

  • It's a marker.”

  • Okay. Now, there are two highlighters.

  • Okay, two.

  • We use 'are'.

  • What are they?”

  • What are they?”

  • They are highlighters.”

  • They are highlighters.”

  • We have more than one, so we have to sayare”.

  • And we have to put an 's' at the end.

  • Again, we can use a contraction for 'they are':

  • they're”.

  • They're highlighters.”

  • They're highlighters.”

  • What are they?” “What are they?”

  • They're markers.”

  • They're markers.”

  • Okay

  • We're going to look at some examples  and I'm going to ask some questions.

  • We please try to answer them.

  • Listen carefully and answer withIt's 

  • a” orThey're”. Let's look at the first one.

  • What is it?”

  • What is it?”

  • It's a key.”

  • It's a key.”

  • What are they?”

  • What are they?”

  • They're keys.”

  • They're keys.”

  • What is it?”

  • What is it?”

  • It's a chair.”

  • It's a chair.”

  • What are they?”

  • What are they?” “They're chairs.”

  • They're chairs.” “What is it?”

  • What is it?” “It's a cat.”

  • It's a cat.”

  • What are they?” “What are they?”

  • They're cats.”

  • They're cats.”

  • What is it?”

  • What is it?”

  • It's a house.”

  • It's a house.”

  • What are they?”

  • What are they?”

  • They're houses.”

  • They're houses.”

  • Now let's focus on pronunciation

  • and saying these fast. Okay

  • English speakers speak very quickly,

  • so you have to practice as well.

  • Okay. “What is it?” 

  • Okay, let's try it faster three times.

  • What is it?”

  • What is it?”

  • What is it?”

  • It sounds like one word.

  • Okay, and the answer is also very fast.

  • It's a…”

  • It's a…”

  • It's a…”

  • It's a pencil.”

  • It's a chair.” “It's a marker.”

  • Okay.

  • When we have more than onewe say, “What are they?”.

  • Let's do it fast three times.

  • What are they?”

  • What are they?”

  • What are they?”

  • Okay.

  • And when you answer. “They're…” 

  • They're pencils

  • They're chairs

  • They're markers

  • Okay, so this video was 'what' and 'be' verbs.

  • I hope you understood, and  I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody, and welcome.

  • In this video, we're going to talk about 'this' and 'that'.

  • Now 'this' and 'that' are used to talk about nouns

  • that are close to us, near or far away.

  • Okay.

  • So let's look at the board.

  • This is a flower.”

  • Okay, we use 'this' to talk about  one noun, “a flower”, that is close.

  • Okay.

  • This is a flower.”

  • It's not far.

  • It's close.

  • That is a flower.”

  • Okay, we use 'that' to talk  about one noun that's far away.

  • So, “Thatthat is a flower”.

  • Okay.

  • For another example

  • This is a marker.”

  • It's close to me.

  • ButThatthat is a marker”.

  • It's far away.

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • So we know

  • This is a flower.”

  • Okay.

  • AndThat is a flower... that”.

  • Now, “Is this a flower”?

  • What is it?”

  • It's a chair.”

  • So we have to use the negative.

  • This isn't a flower.”

  • It's close by, but it isn't a flower.

  • 'isn't' is a contraction for 'is not'.

  • Okay.

  • This isn't a flower.”

  • This is a chair.”

  • That isn't a flower.”

  • It's far away, so we saythat”.

  • Again, we have 'isn't', 'a flower'.

  • That's a chair.”

  • And let's take another example.

  • This isn't a pencil.”

  • This is a marker.”

  • And

  • That isn't a pencil.”

  • That is a marker.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Now we're going to learn how to use 'this' and 'that' in a question.

  • Okay.

  • So we know, “This is a flower”.

  • When we make a question, we have to switch.

  • We put the 'be' verb first.

  • So it becomes, “Is this a flower?”.

  • Okay, it's close by.

  • So the answer is, “Yes, it is”.

  • Okay.

  • Is that a flower?”

  • It's far away.

  • The answer is, “Yes, it is”.

  • Okay, but how about this?

  • This isn't a flower.” So...

  • Is this a flower?”.

  • The answer is, “No, it isn't”.

  • Is that a flower?”

  • No, it isn't.”

  • Okay, here.

  • Is this a marker?”.

  • Yes, it is.”

  • Is that a marker?”.

  • Yes, it is.” “Is this a pencil?”.

  • No, it isn't.”

  • Is that a pencil?”. “No, it isn't.”

  • Okay, so we learned 'thisand 'that' in this video.

  • I hope you guys understand and  I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody and welcome to this video.

  • We're going to talk about how  to use 'these' and 'those'.

  • Okay.

  • Uhhh, just like we learned with 'this' and 'that',

  • we use 'these' and 'those' to talk  about nouns that are close to us

  • or far from us.

  • Okay.

  • So, let's take a look at the board.

  • Now, we know if there is just one,

  • and it's close to us,

  • we say, “This is a flower”.

  • Okay.

  • But there's more than one.

  • It's plural.

  • So we have to say, “These”.

  • These are flowers.”

  • Again, more than one.

  • Now, I change the 'be' verb to 'are'

  • and I added an 's' at the end of 'flower'.

  • So, “These are flowers.”

  • Okay.

  • Now, there's one that's far away.

  • We say, “That is a flower.”

  • But, again, there's more than one.

  • There are two flowers.

  • So, in that case, we use, “Those are flowers.”

  • Those are flowers.”

  • They're far away.

  • Those are flowers.”

  • Let's look at these.

  • This is a marker.”

  • These are markers.”

  • That is a marker.”

  • Those are markers.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's move on to the next part.

  • So we knowThese are flowers”.

  • They're close by.

  • And for the flowers that are far away, we say,

  • Those are flowers”.

  • Okay.

  • But over here we have 'chairs'.

  • So, we have to use the negative.

  • Okay.

  • We use the contraction 'aren't'

  • which is short for 'are not'.

  • These aren't flowers.”

  • These aren't flowers.

  • Okay, and for the chairs that are far away,

  • we say, “Those aren't flowers”.

  • Those aren't flowers.”

  • Okay, and let's try with the markers.

  • These aren't pens.”

  • These aren't pens.”

  • Okay, and far away.

  • Those aren't pens.”

  • Those aren't pens.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, now we're going to make some questions.

  • We know, “These are flowers”.

  • When you want to makequestion, you have to change

  • 'these are' and put the 'be' verb first.

  • So, it becomes, “Are these flowers?”.

  • Are these flowers?”

  • And the answer isYes, they are.”

  • Okay, now the flowers are far away.

  • So we say, “Are those flowers?”.

  • Are those flowers?”

  • And again, the answer isYes, they are.”

  • Okay. Now here, we have chairs.

  • Are these flowers?”

  • The answer isNo, they aren't.”

  • Okay, now they're far away.

  • Are those flowers?”

  • And again, the answer isNo, they aren't.”

  • How about these? “Are these markers?”

  • Yes, they are.”

  • Are those markers?”

  • Yes, they are.”

  • Are these pens?”

  • No, they aren't.”

  • Are those pens?” “No, they aren't.”

  • Okay, so in this video, we learned  how to use 'these' and 'those'.

  • I hope you guys understand and I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Let's do some practice with 'this', 'that',  

  • 'these', and 'those'. First, I have this pen.

  • I have to say, “This is a pen.”

  • This is a pen.”

  • Okay.

  • Over there, “That is a pen.”

  • That is a pen.”

  • Now, I have two pens.

  • These are pens.”

  • These are pens.”

  • Okay, I'm going to move them far away.

  • Those are pens.”

  • Those are pens.”

  • Okay, let's move on to questions.

  • I have one pen.

  • Is this a pen?”

  • Yes, it is.”

  • Is this a cookie?”

  • No, it isn't.”

  • Is that a pen?” “Yes, it is.”

  • Is that a cookie?”

  • No, it isn't.”

  • Okay, two pens.

  • Are these pens?”

  • Yes, they are.”

  • Are these cookies?”

  • No, they aren't.”

  • Okay, now they're over here.

  • Are those pens?”

  • Yes, they are?”

  • Are those cookies?”

  • No, they aren't.”

  • Okay, so that was our practice

  • for 'this', 'that', 'these', and 'those'.

  • I hope you guys understood and  I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going to  learn about possessive adjectives.

  • We use possessive adjectives to show that something belongs to me,

  • or something belongs to someone else.

  • I own something or someone owns something.

  • Okay.

  • So let's take a look at the board.

  • Now last time we learned about subjective pronouns

  • and here they are.

  • 'I', 'he', 'she', 'it', 'you', 'we', 'they'.

  • And here are the possessive adjectives.

  • Okay.

  • 'My'.

  • We use 'my' to show that something belongs to me.

  • Okay.

  • 'His'.

  • This means that something belongs to one man or one boy.

  • 'Her'.

  • We use that to show something belongs to one woman or one girl.

  • 'Its'.

  • We use 'its' to show that something belongs to an animal.

  • We use 'your' to show that  something belongs to you.

  • Okay.

  • 'Our'.

  • 'Our' means that something belongs to me and you or me and somebody else.

  • Okay, or me and other people.

  • Okay, and last.

  • We use 'their' to show that something belongs to many people.

  • Okay, not me, but many people.

  • Okay, now I want you to pay  attention to three special words.

  • 'Its', 'your' and 'their'.

  • Now I want you to notice these words sound like other words.

  • So you have to be careful  not to get them confused.

  • And I'm going to explain.

  • 'Its' sounds like the contraction for 'it is'; 'it's'.

  • Okay, so, don't get that confused.

  • 'Your' sounds like the contraction for 'you are' 'you're'.

  • Okay.

  • So make sure you use this one to show possession.

  • Okay.

  • And the last word, 'their', it actually sounds like two other words.

  • The contraction for 'they are' 'they're'

  • or the word t-h-e-r-e, the  other word 'there'. Okay.

  • So please don't get those confused.

  • Now I know all of this sounds very hard,

  • but if you practice with me,  I'm sure you'll understand.

  • So let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, let's practice together.

  • Now, here I have a marker.

  • It belongs to me.

  • So, I have to say, “This is my marker.”

  • This isn't your marker.”

  • This is my marker.”

  • Okay, let's look at this boy.

  • He has a hat.

  • So, I have to say, “This is his hat.”

  • This is his hat.”

  • This isn't my hat.”

  • This isn't your hat.”

  • Okay.

  • And this girl has a dress.

  • So, “This is her dress.”

  • This is her dress.”

  • This isn't my dress.”

  • This isn't your dress.”

  • Okay, in this picture there's an animal; a dogand it has a ball.

  • I have to say, “This is its ball.”

  • This is its ball.”

  • This isn't my ball.”

  • andThis isn't your ball.”

  • Now, in this picture, we have two people.

  • Okay, and they both own this house.

  • So, “This is their house.”

  • This is their house.”

  • Okay, now a little bit farther away, we have three books.

  • Okay.

  • And this boy and girl have the books here.

  • So, we have to saythose”.

  • And because we have more than one,

  • we have to use 'are'.

  • Okay.

  • Those are their books.”

  • Those are their books.”

  • Those aren't my books.”

  • Those aren't your books.”

  • Okay.

  • And the last one.

  • Here's the county Korea.

  • Okay, we all live here.

  • So we say, “This is our country.”

  • This is our country.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the next  part for some more practice.

  • Here are some practice sentences.

  • We're going to put possessive  adjectives on these lines.

  • Okay.

  • So, let's try together.

  • “I put candy in ____ mouth.”

  • Okay, this is a mouth.

  • “I put candy in ……”

  • What should we put?

  • my mouth.”

  • Okay, next.

  • John.”

  • John is one man or boy.

  • John lost ____ bag.”

  • Okay, for one man or boy, we say, “his”.

  • John lost his bag.”

  • Okay, “The parents…”

  • That's more than one person. That's two people.

  • So, “The parents love ____ baby.”

  • We have to put

  • their”.

  • The parents love their baby.”

  • Okay. And here, “The dog…”

  • Okay, 'the dog' is an animal.

  • So, “The dog eats ____ food.”

  • What do we put?

  • We have to say, “its”.

  • The dog eats its food.”

  • Okay, let's look at some more examples.

  • Let's continue.

  • “_____ names are Paul and Sam.”

  • Okay, we have two people, Paul, and Sam.

  • And the plural names.

  • So we have to say, “Their”.

  • Their names are Paul and Sam.”

  • Okay.

  • Can I use ____ phone?”

  • Okay, I'm asking you.

  • So I have to say, “Can I useyour phone?”

  • Okay.

  • And the next one. “_____ make-up looks good.”

  • Whose make-up? Well, usually  girls or women wear make-up.

  • So, I'm going to say,

  • Her make-up looks good.”

  • Okay, and

  • “_____ videos are helpful to you.”

  • Okay, these are the videos that we make. Right?

  • We teach English in these videos.

  • So, the answer isour”.

  • Our videos are helpful to you.”

  • Or we sure hope they are.

  • Okay, so in this video, we learned  how to use possessive adjectives.

  • Don't forget you have to  put a noun after each one.

  • I hope you understand, and I hope to see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody and welcome.

  • In this video, we're going to learn about possessive pronouns.

  • Okay.

  • And we use possessive pronouns to show that something belongs to us

  • or something is owned by us.

  • Okay, or someone else.

  • So, let's take a look at the board.

  • Now, last time we learned  about subjective pronouns.

  • And here they are.

  • Okay.

  • And in another video, we talked  about possessive adjectives.

  • And here they are.

  • Okay.

  • And over here are the possessive pronouns that we're going to talk about in this video.

  • Now, possessive adjectives and possessive pronouns are the same.

  • They show possession.

  • Which means, I own something.

  • Something belongs to meor to someone else.

  • Okay.

  • The only difference is that they're used a little differently.

  • For possessive adjectives, you have to put a noun after.

  • Okay.

  • My dog.”

  • Okay.

  • But for possessive pronouns, you don't have to put a noun after it.

  • Okay, you can just saymine”.

  • Okay.

  • So let's go through each one.

  • My"

  • "Mine

  • Okay.

  • And this is the same.

  • His"

  • "His

  • Okay.

  • For 'her', we sayhers”.

  • We add an 's'.

  • Hers

  • Its"

  • "Its

  • Again, it's the same.

  • Your"

  • "Yours

  • We have to put an 's'.

  • Yours

  • Our"

  • "OursandTheir"

  • "Theirs

  • Okay, again, I know that this can be really confusing, but let's practice some more.

  • Okay.

  • And let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, let's practice together.

  • Now, “This is my marker.”

  • But with possessive pronouns, you do not have to put a noun after.

  • Okay, so I can say, “This is mine.”

  • This isn't yours.”

  • This is mine.”

  • Okay, let's look at the board.

  • This boy has a hat.

  • So we say, “This is his.”

  • This isn't mine.”

  • This isn't yours.”

  • This is his.”

  • The girl has a dress.

  • This is hers.”

  • This isn't mine.”

  • This isn't yours.”

  • This is hers.”

  • Okay.

  • Now with 'its', it's kind of different.

  • Okay.

  • You still have to put a noun,

  • so you can't say, “This is its.”

  • You have to say, “This is its ball.”

  • Again, “This is its ball.”

  • This isn't mine.”

  • This isn't yours.”

  • This is its ball.”

  • Okay.

  • Now we have two people who have a house.

  • This is theirs.”

  • This isn't mine.”

  • This isn't yours.”

  • This is theirs.”

  • Okay.

  • Now over here, we have some books and we're going to say that they belong to these two people.

  • Okay.

  • So we're going to use the plural 'be' verb; 'are'.

  • Okay.

  • These are theirs.”

  • These aren't mine.”

  • These aren't yours.”

  • These are theirs.”

  • Okay.

  • And last, we have a picture of Korea.

  • Okay.

  • This is ours.”

  • This is ours.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, let's look at these examples.

  • We have to put in some possessive pronouns.

  • Okay.

  • That lipstick is _____.”

  • Okay, well we have the noun 'lipstick' and usually a girl or woman wears lipstick,

  • so we're going to use the possessive pronoun 'hers'.

  • Okay.

  • That lipstick is hers.”

  • Okay.

  • The next sentence.

  • That sports car is _____.”

  • Okay.

  • Again, usually a man will drive a sports car.

  • So, we can say, “That sports car is his.”

  • Okay.

  • Now, let's look at these last two.

  • This money is mine, not yours.”

  • This money is mine; it belongs to me.”

  • It doesn't belong to you.”

  • Not yours.

  • Okay.

  • And the last one.

  • Dokdo is ours.”

  • It's Koreas.

  • Right

  • Not theirs.”

  • Not Japan's.

  • It belongs to us.”

  • So we say, “It's ours.”

  • Okay, so in this video, we  learned possessive pronouns.

  • I hope you understand, and I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • This is a checkup for 'this',  'that', 'these', 'those',

  • possessive adjectives, and possessive pronouns.

  • Okay.

  • Now here, I want you to focus on 'this', 'that', 'these', and 'those'.

  • Okay, so here's the first example.

  • We have a dog.

  • One dog.

  • So we have to use 'this' or 'that'.

  • Okay.

  • If it's close, I say, “This is a dog.”

  • If it's far away, I say, “That is a dog.”

  • So, I'm going to write 'this'.

  • Okay.

  • The next one says, “…are balloons.”

  • “…are balloons.” With an 's'.

  • There's more than one.

  • So can we use 'this' or 'that'?

  • No.

  • We have to use 'these' or 'those'.

  • So, if it's close, I sayThese are balloons.”

  • If they are far, “Those are balloons.”

  • Okay.

  • So let's write 'those'.

  • Those are balloons.”

  • Okay.

  • Now when we ask the question,

  • Are these pens?”

  • we have more than one.

  • These pens.” With an 's'.

  • Okay.

  • I can put two answers here.

  • No, ___ aren't.”

  • I can sayNo, these aren't.”

  • Or… I can sayNo, they..."  more than one "... they aren't.”

  • Okay.

  • The next one. “These ____ eyes.”

  • We need a 'be' verb.

  • Okay.

  • There's more than one, right.

  • There are two eyes.

  • So, “These are eyes.”

  • Okay.

  • And here “…is a nose.”

  • One.

  • A nose.

  • And it's close.

  • So, I have to say, “This is a nose.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • We're going to do some more checkup.

  • Now here, I want you to focus on possessive adjectives and possessive pronouns.

  • Let's look at the first example.

  • These are my pen.”

  • Okay.

  • We have 'theseare'.

  • This means we need more than one.

  • Right

  • More than one pen.

  • So, we have to put 's'.

  • These are my pens.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's look at these two together.

  • Those aren't her children.”

  • Okay.

  • So we can also say, “Those aren't ____.”

  • What do we put?

  • “… her children.”

  • We can always say, “Those aren't hers.”

  • Okay.

  • We don't need a noun here.

  • We do need a noun over here, though.

  • Okay.

  • Then, “Is it yours?”

  • Is it yours?”

  • Yes, it's _____.”

  • There's no noun.

  • We have to say

  • mine”.

  • Is it yours?”

  • Yes, it's mine.”

  • Okay.

  • And the last two

  • ” _____ these his shoes?”

  • We need a 'be' verb here.

  • ” _____ these his shoes?”

  • We have 'these', and we have 'shoes' with an 's'.

  • So we need the plural 'be' verb.

  • Are”. “Are these his shoes?”

  • Okay.

  • And the answer. “No, they…”

  • Plural.

  • “…are.”

  • We have 'no'. “No, they aren't”

  • Okay.

  • Are not, aren't”.

  • Okay.

  • Let's move on to the next part.

  • For this last part, we're going to look at these sentences.

  • But they're all wrong.

  • They all have mistakes.

  • So you have to find the mistakes for me.

  • Okay.

  • So, the first one says, “That are chairs.”

  • Hmmmm, we know that's wrong.

  • 'That' is used for singular nouns.

  • One.

  • But it saysareand it sayschairswith an 's'.

  • So, we have to change this word.

  • We can say, “These are chairs.”

  • orThose are chairs.”

  • Okay.

  • This book is my.”

  • Hmm.

  • We have the possessive pronoun 'my'.

  • But remember, you have to have a noun after,

  • but there's no noun.

  • So, we can change this to the  possessive adjective 'mine'.

  • Okay.

  • You don't need a noun if you say 'mine'.

  • Okay.

  • That is he house.”

  • Hmm.

  • We want to show that this house belongs to this man or boy.

  • That is he house.”

  • But this word 'he', does not show possession.

  • Okay.

  • So, we say, “This is his house.”

  • 'His', then the noun 'house'.

  • Similarly, for the next one.

  • She name is Jenny.”

  • We want to show that this name belongs to Jenny.

  • So, we say

  • her”.

  • Her name is Jenny.”

  • Okay, and the last one is also similar.

  • It's ours house.”

  • Now, if we don't have 'house', “It's ours.”

  • We can say that.

  • But since we have a noun, …

  • we use the possessive pronoun,

  • It's 'our' house.”

  • Okay.

  • That was the checkup for possessive  pronouns, possessive adjectives,

  • 'this', 'that', 'these', and 'those'.

  • I hope you understood, and I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going to talk about the articles; 'a', 'an' and 'the'.

  • Now this can be very confusing, so please make sure you pay careful attention.

  • We use articles in front of nouns.

  • Okay, so remember that and  let's look at the board.

  • First, we use 'a' or 'an' when we're talking about any one thing.

  • For example, let's saysay, “A banana is delicious.”

  • Okay, that means all bananas.

  • Any banana is delicious.

  • “A banana is delicious.”

  • Okay, let's jump over here.

  • If I'm talking about a specific banana

  • maybe I have a banana in my hand.

  • It's specific, not any banana, this one.

  • I have to use 'the',

  • The banana is old.”

  • Okay. This one.

  • I can't say, “A banana is old.”

  • Then that means all bananas are old.

  • And that's not true. Just this one.

  • So, I say, “The banana is old.”

  • Okay, let's move over here.

  • We also use 'a' or 'an' when we're talking about something for the first time.

  • So, I have another example here.

  • “I watched a movie.”

  • Okay.

  • I'm talking about this movie for the first time, so I have to use “…a movie”.

  • But, if I want to talk about this movie again,

  • for the second time, or the  third time or fourth, fifth

  • it doesn't matter.

  • I have to use 'the'.

  • The movie was fun.”

  • I'm talking about this one. The specific.

  • The movie was fun.”

  • I can't say, “A movie was fun.”

  • That means all movies are fun.

  • That's not true.

  • The movie was fun.”

  • Okay, and I also use 'the'

  • when I'm talking about a noun  where there's only one and only.

  • Okay.

  • For example, there's only one sun.

  • Okay, when I look at the  sky, there's only one sun.

  • So, I say, “The sun.”

  • The sun is hot.”

  • I cannot say, “A sun.”

  • That's wrong.

  • When there's one and only, we say, “The sun.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's look at some more examples.

  • The first example says, “A lion is dangerous.”

  • I have to use 'a' because I'm  talking about any one lion.

  • Any lion is dangerous.

  • All lions are dangerous.

  • So, I use 'a'.

  • The next sentence says, “It's a dog.”

  • I'm talking about this dog for the first time, so I use 'a'.

  • Now, I'm talking about this  dog for the second time.

  • So, I say, “The dog is cute.”

  • Okay.

  • Here's a similar example.

  • It's an ant.”

  • Well, I used 'an' because we have 'ant', which start with a vowel.

  • And I'm talking about this ant for the first time.

  • It's an ant.”

  • Now, I'm talking about this ant again.

  • The ant is small.”

  • The ant…”, this one, “…is small.”

  • Okay, and the last one.

  • It's the moon.”

  • I have to say, “the moon”  because there's only one moon.

  • I cannot say, “a moon”.

  • It's the moon.

  • The moon…”, only one, “…is round.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's look at some more examples.

  • Okay, we have some more examples,

  • but this time I want you to think about  whether we should put 'a', 'an' or 'the'.

  • Okay.

  • So, “I see ____ desk and ___ chair.”

  • We don't know which desk and chair.

  • And it's the first time I'm talking about them.

  • So, we have to put 'a'.

  • “I see a desk and a chair.”

  • The next one.

  • “I see ____ octopus.”

  • Okay, this is the same.

  • It's the first time I'm  talking about this octopus.

  • So, do I put 'a' or 'an'?

  • Well here we have the vowel 'o'.

  • So we have to put “'an' octopus”.

  • “I see an octopus.”

  • Okay, the next one.

  • It's ___ pen.”

  • Okay, it's the same.

  • It's the first time, so I say, “a pen”.

  • Now, I'm talking about the  pen for the second time.

  • So I say, “The pen is red.”

  • Okay, I'm talking about this one.

  • So I say, “the”.

  • Okay, similarly

  • She is ____ girl.”

  • What do I say?

  • “a girl.”

  • We're talking about her for the first time.

  • Okay.

  • And now we're talking about this girl again, for the second time.

  • So, I have to say, “The girl is pretty.”

  • And the last example.

  • “I can see ___ sky.”

  • Now, we only have one sky.

  • Right

  • So, if there's only one and only, we have to put the article 'the'.

  • “I can see the sky.”

  • Okay.

  • So in this video, we talked about the articles 'a', 'an' and 'the'.

  • I hope you understand, and  I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going to talk about the prepositions: in, on and under.

  • Now, we use prepositions to  show 'where' something is.

  • So, let's take a look at the board.

  • Okay, now in this picture, we have a cat.

  • Okay, and we're talking about this specific cat, so we have to say, “the cat”.

  • Okay. “…is in the box.”

  • Okay.

  • The preposition is 'in'.

  • He's 'in' the box.” “…'in' the box.”

  • Okay.

  • And the next one.

  • The cat is on…”

  • The preposition 'on'… “the chair”. “He's on the chair.”

  • Okay. And the next one.

  • The cat is 'under'…

  • 'under' the table.”

  • “…'under' the table.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's look at the next one.

  • Now we have plural nouns.

  • The apples 'are'…”

  • Okay. “…in the box.”

  • Again, the apples are “…'in' the box.”

  • Okay.

  • Next, “The apples are 'on' the chair.”

  • And last.

  • The apples are 'under'….'under' the table.”

  • Okay, let's look at some more examples.

  • Okay, let's look at some pictures to help us understand the prepositions:

  • in, on, and under.

  • I'm going to ask you some questions.

  • I want you to think about  which one you should use.

  • Okay.

  • Where is the dog?”

  • Where is the dog?”

  • The dog is 'in' the doghouse.

  • You should use the preposition 'in'.

  • The dog is 'in' the doghouse.

  • Where is the man?”

  • Where is the man?”

  • The man is 'under' the umbrella.”

  • The man is 'under' the umbrella.”

  • And last.

  • Where are the girls?”

  • Where are the girls?”

  • The girls are 'on' the bridge.”

  • The girls are 'on' the bridge.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's look at some more examples.

  • Now, we're going to practice asking and answering questions using: in, on and under.

  • First, let's take a look at this picture.

  • Here we have a rabbit, a chair  and one, two, three snakes.

  • Okay.

  • So, I will ask a question using in, on or under.

  • I want you to think.

  • Is the answer, “Yes, it is.”

  • orNo, it isn't.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's start with the rabbit.

  • Is the rabbit under the chair?”

  • No, it isn't.”

  • Is the rabbit in the chair?”

  • No, it isn't.”

  • Is the rabbit on the chair?” “…on the chair?”

  • Yes, it is.”

  • Okay.

  • Now, we're going to move on to the snakes.

  • Now, there arethere are more than one, right, so it's plural, so we say,

  • Are the snakes…” with an 's'.

  • Okay.

  • So again, think.

  • Is the answer, “Yes, they are.”

  • orNo, they aren't.”

  • Are the snakes in the chair?”

  • No, they aren't.”

  • Are the snakes on the chair?”

  • No, they aren't.”

  • Are the snakes under the chair?”

  • Yes, they are.”

  • Okay, how did you do?

  • I hope you guys understand how to use the 

  • prepositions; in, on and under  after watching this video.

  • Thanks for joining and I'll see you next time.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going  to talk about adjectives.

  • Now, we use adjectives to  describe nouns or things.

  • Okay, we can describe its size, its color, its shape or other things like that.

  • Okay.

  • So let's take a look at the board.

  • The first noun we're going to use is 'marker'.

  • It's a marker.”

  • Now, I want to use an adjective  to describe the color.

  • I'm going to say, “It's a 'black' marker.”

  • 'Black' is the adjective.

  • Now notice, I have to put the adjective after the article 'a', but before the noun 'marker'.

  • It's a black marker.”

  • Now, I can use another  adjective to describe its size.

  • It's a long marker.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's try the next one.

  • Here we have a bird.

  • So, “It's a bird.”

  • Okay.

  • I want to use another adjective  to describe the color.

  • So, I'm going to say, “It's a blue bird.”

  • Again, you have to put the adjective after the article, before the noun.

  • I can also describe its size.

  • It's a small bird.”

  • 'Small' is another adjective.

  • Now, at the last part, we have some apples.

  • Three apples.

  • Okay, remember, when we have more than one noun, it's called a plural noun.

  • So, we have to say, “They're apples.”, with an 's'.

  • They're apples.”

  • I want to use the adjective 'red' to describe the color of these apples.

  • So, I'm going to say, “They're red apples.”

  • Okay.

  • Here, there's no article.

  • There's no 'a'.

  • That's because there's more than one.

  • They're red apples.”

  • So, I just have to put the adjective before the noun that it's describing.

  • They're red apples.”

  • Okay, let's move on to some more examples.

  • Okay. Now we're going to  practice asking and answering 

  • questions using adjectives.

  • Okay.

  • So, we have a man here.

  • I want to ask, “Is he a small man?”

  • Okay.

  • We have the adjective 'small'.

  • Notice, even in a question,

  • we have to put the adjective after  the article and before the noun.

  • Is he a small man?”

  • Well, let's take a look at this picture.

  • The answer is, “No, he's a _____ man.”

  • We need another adjective.

  • He's not a small man.

  • So, we have to sayNo, he's a…

  • big man.”

  • Okay.

  • We're going to use the adjective 'big'.

  • Okay, let's look at the next one.

  • Is it a _____ table?”

  • The answer isYes, it is.”

  • We need an adjective to describe color, shape or size or something.

  • Well, we can't really describe the color.

  • So, I think we should try the shape.

  • Okay.

  • Well, “Is it a….

  • round table?”

  • And the answer isYes, it is.”

  • Okay, and last, we have two dresses.

  • Okay. So that means the noun is plural.

  • In that case, for the  questions, we begin with 'are'.

  • Are they red dresses?”

  • Okay, the adjective is 'red'.

  • But, “Are they red dresses?”

  • No, they're

  • blue dresses.”

  • Okay.

  • No, they'reblue dresses.”

  • Okay.

  • So, in this video, we learned about adjectives.

  • I hope you guys understand.

  • And I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • This is a check-up video for articlesprepositions, and adjectives.

  • I've written some sentences on the board.

  • Let's try to finish them together.

  • Okay.

  • The first sentence says, “It's __ ___umbrella.”

  • Okay.

  • We have the noun.

  • We need an article and an  adjective to describe the umbrella.

  • Okay.

  • So here it is.

  • Let's describe the color.

  • Okay.

  • We would say 'black'.

  • Remember, the adjective comes before the noun.

  • Now we need an article.

  • And the correct article is 'a'.

  • It's a black umbrella.”

  • Okay.

  • Next, “It's ___ ___ ___.”

  • We have three blanks.

  • Here, we have the noun 'ant'.

  • So, we're going to put that at the end.

  • Okay.

  • Let's use the adjective ugly.

  • Okay.

  • Remember, again, the adjective  comes before the noun.

  • “…ugly ant.”

  • It's __ ugly ant.”

  • We need an article.

  • Should we use 'a' or 'an'?

  • Well, 'ugly' starts with the vowel 'u', so we have to say 'an'.

  • It's an ugly ant.”

  • Next.

  • It's __ __ __.”

  • Okay.

  • We have the noun 'car'.

  • So, we put that at the end.

  • Again, let's use an adjective  that describes the color.

  • Let's use 'blue'.

  • Okay.

  • What article should we use?

  • We have to say “a”.

  • It's a blue car.”

  • Okay, and last.

  • “I __ ___ nice girl.”

  • That's me.

  • We have the noun 'girl'…and the adjective 'nice'.

  • So, we need the article.

  • We're going to say “a”.

  • Now, we're missing one more thing.

  • We need the 'be' verb 'am'.

  • “I am a nice girl.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the next part.

  • Okay, let's continue with the checkup.

  • Here's a picture.

  • Okay.

  • Look at it carefully.

  • What is it?”

  • What is it?”

  • It's __ banana.”

  • We need an article here.

  • And it's the first time I'm talking about this, so we're going to say “a”.

  • It's a banana.”

  • Where is ___ banana?”

  • Now, you know, I'm talking about this one.

  • It's specific.

  • So, I'm going to use the article 'the'.

  • Where is the banana?”

  • Okay. And now, let's think about the preposition.

  • It's __ the chair.”

  • We need to use the preposition 'on'.

  • It's on the chair.”

  • Okay.

  • Let's move on.

  • What are they?”

  • Okay.

  • They're ____ oranges.”

  • Okay.

  • We have more than one.

  • That's why we said, “They arethey'reandoranges” …with an 's'.

  • Okay.

  • Can we use 'the'?

  • No, you don't know what oranges I'm talking about because it's the first time I said

  • anything about them.

  • Then, can I use 'a' or 'an'?

  • No, 'a' or 'an' is used for any one thing.

  • So here we do not need any article.

  • They're oranges.”

  • What are they?”

  • They're oranges.”

  • Okay.

  • Where __ __ oranges?”

  • Okay.

  • Now, again, you know I'm talking about these specific oranges, so we use 'the'.

  • Where __ the oranges?”

  • Okay, remember, when you ask a question with plural, you need 'are'.

  • Where are the oranges?”

  • Okay.

  • Now, let's think about the preposition.

  • They're ___ the chair.”

  • Okay.

  • The preposition we need is 'under'.

  • Okay.

  • They're not 'on', “they're 'under' the chair.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the last part.

  • Okay, let's continue with the checkup.

  • Now, we have two short stories here.

  • You have to help me find the mistakes.

  • The first sentence says, “It's snake.”

  • Well, we're missing an article.

  • Okay.

  • And that article is 'a'.

  • It's a snake.”

  • Okay.

  • It's blue a snake.”

  • Can you find the mistake?

  • Okay.

  • Remember, the adjective 'blue' has to go between the article and the noun.

  • So, we have to move the article to the front.

  • It's a blue snake.”

  • That is the correct answer.

  • It's a blue snake.”

  • Okay, the next one.

  • The snake under the box.”

  • It sounds right. “The snake under the box.”,

  • but we forgot the 'be' verb.

  • The snake is under the box.”

  • Okay, let's move on to the next story.

  • It's a octopus.”

  • Okay, we have an article, but octopus starts with the vowel 'o'.

  • So, we have to use 'an'.

  • It's an octopus.”

  • An octopus is big.”

  • Hmmm

  • This one's a little bit hard.

  • But remember, we're talking about the same octopus.

  • So now, this octopus is specific.

  • So, we have to change the article 'an' to 'the'.

  • The octopus is big.”

  • The octopus from the first sentence.

  • Last, “The octopus are under the chair.”

  • What's the mistake?

  • The octopus…”

  • There's only one.

  • So, we don't use 'are', we have to sayis”.

  • The octopus is under the chair.”

  • Okay.

  • So that was our checkup for articlesprepositions and adjectives.

  • I hope you guys understand better and I'll see you in the next video.

  • Thank you.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going  to learn 'have' and 'has'.

  • Now we use 'have' or 'has' to show possession.

  • To show something belongs to you.

  • Okay.

  • So, let's take a look at the board.

  • Okay.

  • When you're talking about 'you', or me, we say, “I have…”

  • Okay.

  • If something belongs to a boy or man, we say, “He has…”

  • For a girl or a woman.

  • She has…”

  • For an animal or thing.

  • It has…”

  • For you, “You have…”

  • For us.

  • Me and some other people.

  • We say, “We have…”

  • Okay, and some other people.

  • They have…”

  • Okay.

  • This is very easy, you just have to remember it.

  • Okay.

  • So, let's practice with these pictures.

  • Here we have a rabbit

  • and a carrot.

  • So, which one do we have to use?

  • Well, a rabbit is an animal.

  • So, we have to use 'it'.

  • It has a carrot.”

  • Again, “It has a carrot.”

  • Now, in this picture, we have two ants.

  • Okay.

  • So, for two things we have to use 'they'.

  • Okay.

  • So, here are two ants and an apple.

  • So, we're going to say, “They have an apple.”

  • They have an apple.”

  • Okay, let's move on to some more practice.

  • Let's do some practice together.

  • You have to think about if we should use 'have' or 'has' in the blanks.

  • Okay.

  • So, let's look at the first one.

  • The girl 'blank' long hair.”

  • Okay.

  • Now, 'the girl'.

  • We can we use instead of the girl?

  • We can sayshe”.

  • Shethen what do we say?

  • Has.”

  • She has long hair.”

  • Or

  • The girl has long hair.”

  • It's the same.

  • Okay.

  • The next one.

  • The boys…”

  • Now, there's an 's' here.

  • That means there's more than one boy.

  • When we have more than one thing, what do we use?

  • They.”

  • Okay.

  • They…”

  • Do we say 'have' or 'has'?

  • We have to sayhave”.

  • They have caps.”

  • Or

  • The boys have caps.”

  • Okay, the next one's easier.

  • “I…”

  • When we have 'I', we sayhave”.

  • “I have a friend.”

  • Okay, the next one is also easy.

  • He…”

  • He 'blank' an umbrella.”

  • What do we have to use?

  • Has.”

  • He has an umbrella.”

  • Okay, the next one says, “The dog 'blank' a bone.”

  • The dog…”

  • What do we use for animals?

  • It.”

  • It

  • has a bone.”

  • Or… “The dog has a bone.”

  • And last.

  • My mother and I 'blank' a car.”

  • Okay, this one's tricky.

  • My mother and I…”

  • We have to saywe”.

  • Wehave…a car.”

  • My mother and I have a car.”

  • Okay.

  • So, I hope you understand how to use 'have' and 'has'.

  • And I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going to learn negatives with 'have' and 'has'.

  • Now this also pretty easy.

  • You just have to remember everything that I wrote.

  • Okay.

  • So, let's take a look at the board.

  • Okay, first, for 'I', we use, “I don't have…”

  • Remember, 'don't' is a contraction for 'do not'.

  • “I don't have…”

  • For 'he, 'she' and 'it', we use 'doesn't have'.

  • 'Doesn't' is a contraction for 'does not'.

  • He doesn't have…”

  • She doesn't have…”

  • It doesn't have…”

  • Now on the bottom.

  • For 'you', 'we', 'they', it's the same as 'I'.

  • We use 'don't have'.

  • You don't have…”

  • We don't have…” andThey don't have…”

  • So, let's look at these pictures.

  • Remember, we have a rabbit and a carrot.

  • So, we said, “It has a carrot.”

  • Okay, but, we're doing  negatives, so we have to say,

  • It doesn't have a cake.”

  • It doesn't have a cake.”

  • Okay.

  • Now here, we have the ants and an apple.

  • So, we said, “They have an apple.”

  • Okay.

  • But for this banana here, we have to say, “They don't have a banana.”

  • They don't have a banana.”

  • Okay, let's move on to some more practice.

  • Now let's try this practice with the negatives 'doesn't have' and 'don't have' together.

  • Now this is a little easy because we know that the second word is have.

  • All you have to think is should  we use 'doesn't' or 'don't'.

  • Okay.

  • So, I'm just going to put 'have' her first.

  • Okay.

  • She 'blank' have short hair.”

  • Should we use 'don't' or 'doesn't'?

  • If you remember, for 'she', we use 'doesn't'.

  • She doesn't have short hair.”

  • Okay.

  • And again, I'm going to put 'have' first.

  • This is easy.

  • 'He' and 'she' we both use 'doesn't'.

  • He doesn't have an umbrella.”

  • Okay.

  • How about for 'I'?

  • “I doesn't have….”

  • Or “I don't have…”?

  • The correct answer is 'don't'.

  • “I don't have a wife.”

  • People…”

  • Remember, if we have more than one person, animal and thing, we have to think of 'they'.

  • For 'they', do we use 'don't' or 'doesn't'?

  • Do you remember?

  • The correct answer is 'don't'.

  • People don't have manners.”

  • Okay.

  • Next.

  • We…”

  • We 'blank' have money.”

  • Should we put 'doesn't' or 'don't'?

  • The correct answer is 'don't'.

  • We don't have money.”

  • Okay, and the last one.

  • “A snake…”

  • A snake is an animal.

  • What do we use for an animal?

  • It.”

  • It…”

  • What should we put here?

  • Itdoesn't…have legs.”

  • Okay, so that was our practice the negatives 'don't have' and 'doesn't have'.

  • I hope you understand, and I'll see you in the next video.

  • Bye.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • In this video, we're going to learn how to ask questions using 'have'.

  • Okay, let's look at the board.

  • When we are talking about 'he', 'she' or 'it',

  • the question always begins with 'does'.

  • After the pronoun, we have 'have'.

  • So, we say, “Does he have…”

  • Does she have…”

  • Does it have…”

  • Now, let's practice with this question and let's look at the two answers.

  • Okay.

  • Does he have a friend?”

  • If the answer is 'yes', we sayyes”,

  • in the blank, we matchthis has to be the same.

  • Yes, he does.”

  • If the answer is 'no'.

  • No, he doesn't.”

  • Does he have a friend?”

  • Yes, she does.”

  • No, she doesn't.”

  • Does it have a friend?”

  • Yes, it does.”

  • No, it doesn't.”

  • Okay, so remember 'doeshave'.

  • Now, when we use 'you', 'we', 'they', we use 'do' in the front.

  • And 'have' after.

  • Do you have a friend?”

  • Do we have a friend?”

  • Do they have a friend?”

  • Okay.

  • And again, we have two answers.

  • We finish with 'do' or 'don't'.

  • So, “Do you have a friend?”

  • Yes, I do.”

  • Right, the question is asking 'you', so, you say “I do.”

  • Or, “No, I don't.”

  • Do we have a friend?”

  • Yes, we do.”

  • Or, “No, we don't.”

  • And last.

  • Do they have a friend?”

  • Yes, they do.”

  • No, they don't.”

  • Okay, let's move on to some more practice.

  • Alright, let's try this practice together.

  • I know it looks hard, but I'm going to help you.

  • Okay.

  • So let's look at the first practice.

  • It's a question.

  • Okay, so remember when we ask a question, we begin with 'do' or 'does'.

  • Okay.

  • We have 'she'.

  • Well, remember for all questions we use 'have'.

  • In the front, should we use 'does' or 'do'?

  • The answer is 'does'.

  • Does she have a dress?”

  • When we answer, “Yes…”

  • What do we put here?

  • Remember, we put the pronoun 'she'.

  • And the answer 'does'.

  • Yes, she does.”

  • The next one.

  • We have 'they'.

  • Okay, 'have' is again the same.

  • “…have a bicycle?”

  • Okay, what goes in the front?

  • For 'they', we use 'do'.

  • Do they have a bicycle?”

  • This time the answer is negative.

  • No, they….”

  • What do we put here?

  • It doesn't make sense to say, “do”.

  • Right?

  • No, they do.”

  • That's wrong.

  • It's a negative.

  • We have to say, “No, they don't.”

  • No, they do not.”

  • Okay, and again, we have 'have' over here.

  • It…”

  • Which one, 'do' or 'does'?

  • The answer is 'does'.

  • Does it have a ball?”

  • Again, the answer is negative.

  • No, itdoes not.”

  • or the contraction, “No, it doesn't.”

  • Okay.

  • So that was our practice for asking questions with 'have'.

  • I hope you understand and I'll  see you in the next video

  • This is a checkup video for 'have', 'has', 'don't have', 'doesn't have'

  • and questions with 'have'.

  • Let's take a look at the board.

  • Here, we have a picture of a dog and a ball.

  • And this ball belongs to this dog.

  • So let's make a sentence about this picture.

  • Ok...

  • The dog is an animal.

  • So, we have to use 'it'.

  • Ok...

  • With 'it', do we use 'have' or 'has'?

  • We have to use 'has'.

  • "It has a ball."

  • Now, there's a hat, but it says "no".

  • It's negative.

  • So, "It..."

  • Remember, for negative, we always use 'have'.

  • But what goes in the front?

  • 'Doesn't' or 'don't'?

  • For 'it', we say "doesn't".

  • "It doesn't have a hat."

  • Next, we have a question.

  • We use 'have'.

  • Remember, we have to put the pronoun over here.

  • The same one.

  • And we put 'does' or 'do' in the front.

  • What do you think?

  • We have to say, "does".

  • "Does it have a ball?"

  • Well, "Does it have a ball?"

  • "Yes, it does."

  • Let's move on to the next part.

  • Here we have two people.

  • So, we're going to say "they".

  • And a car...that belongs to them.

  • For 'they', we have to say "have".

  • "They have a car."

  • Here, there's a bus.

  • But, again, it says, "no".

  • Negative.

  • "They 'blank' 'blank' a bus."

  • Again, for negative, we say "have".

  • 'Doesn't have' or 'don't have'?

  • Which one is it?

  • For 'don't'...uhh for 'they', we say,

  • "They don't have a bus."

  • Ok, and we have a question.

  • Well, again, we have to put the same pronoun.

  • How about in the front?

  • 'Do' or 'does'?

  • For 'they', we put 'do'.

  • "Do they have a bus?"

  • "Do they have a bus?"

  • "No, they don't."

  • Ok, let's move on to some more practice.

  • Ok, now for this practice, we have to find the mistakes in these sentences.

  • What's wrong with them?

  • Ok...

  • So, let's look at the first one.

  • "They has two watches."

  • Hmmmm.

  • Remember, for 'they', we have  to use 'have', not 'has'.

  • "They have two watches."

  • The next one is a question.

  • "Does they have three watches?"

  • Ok...

  • Remember, when we start a question, we have to use 'do' or 'does'.

  • Here we have 'does'.

  • But remember, for 'they', we begin with 'do'.

  • "Do they have three watches?"

  • And in the answer...

  • "No, we don't."

  • What's wrong with this answer?

  • Remember, the pronoun has to match.

  • It has to be the same.

  • "Do they have three watches?"

  • "No, they don't."

  • Let's look at these.

  • "She have a dress."

  • Remember, for 'she', we use 'has'.

  • "She has a dress."

  • How about in the question?

  • "Do she have a hat?"

  • Remember, we begin with 'do' or 'does', but for 'she', we should begin with 'does'.

  • "Does she have a hat?"

  • And the answer.

  • "No, she do."

  • Hmmm.

  • 'No' means it's negative.

  • So, we need a negative here.

  • Is it 'don't' or 'doesn't'?

  • "No, she..

  • doesn't." is the correct answer.

  • Okay.

  • So that was our checkup.

  • I hope you understand better.

  • And I'll see you in the next video.
