My name is Emma, and in today's video I am
going to teach you a very common and important

比較級形容詞

expression we use in English, and that expression
is: "I'd better"; or in the negative form:

But before I teach you how to use this expression,
I'm going to give you an example to help you

So I have here my friend Jack, and
you'll notice Jack is a little confused.

He has a whole bunch of question marks
around his head, because he's thinking.

Well, Jack has a test at 8am, and he's nervous
about his test, and so he's wondering: "What

So I want you to think about: What
should Jack do in this situation?

And he really wants to
do well on his test.

Well, hopefully, you know, you said the
first one: Jack should go to bed early.

So this is when we would use
the expression: "I'd better".

We use: "I'd better" when we want to talk
about something that's a good idea to do;

and if we don't do it,
there might be a problem.

So, for example: "I'd
better go to bed early."

This is something Jack would say, because
going to bed early is a good idea.

He has a test the next day, so it's very
important that he goes to bed early.

So let's make this into an
expression Jack can say.

"I'd better", and then we put the verb,
which is the action or the good idea.

So, in Jack's case, Jack would
say: "I'd better go to bed.

So, now let's look at more examples
of the expression: "I'd better".

Okay, so you might be wondering:
What does "I'd better" stand for?

If you actually break up the "I'd", because
"I'd" is a contraction, it stands for: "I

But usually when we use: "I'd better", we
don't usually use it with the word "had";

we usually use it in conversation
with the contraction.

And so, the way we pronounce
that is: "I'd better".

So let's look at some examples
with this expression.

Okay, so I want you to imagine
it's going to rain later today.

If it's going to rain, a good
idea is to bring an umbrella.

So, we can use this expression
to talk about this good idea.

"I'd better bring an umbrella today
because it's going to rain."

If I don't bring an umbrella,
I'm going to get wet.

So this is a good idea; and if I don't do it,
something bad is probably going to happen

"I'd better leave my house earlier
because I don't want to be late."

So maybe there's a meeting or a job interview,
and you're thinking: "Oh, I need to get to

work early", or: "I need to get
to this job interview early."

So, because we're talking about a good idea,
we say: "I'd better leave my house earlier

If I don't leave my house early, maybe there
will be problems getting to the interview;

So we often use "I'd better" when we're talking
about a good idea; and if we don't do this

This is a very common thing you'll
hear people say: "It's late", okay?

So, I think this is actually probably the
most common way we use this expression.

You'll see it all the time in movies;
somebody often says: "It's late.

And then another example: "My
friends are coming over."

It's usually good to buy some food, maybe
some drinks, so: "I'd better buy some food."

If I don't buy food, my
friends will be hungry.

You'll notice after: "I'd better", it's the
same in each sentence: "I'd better", "I'd

What comes right after the
word "I'd better"...?

So, in this case, we have the verb "buy"; in
this case, we have the verb "go"; we have

the verb "leave"; and we
have the verb "bring".

So it's important that after you use the
expression: "I'd better", a verb comes.

So now let's look at some examples
of the expression: "I'd better not".

Okay, so we've talked about: "I'd better"
do something; we can also say: "I'd better

So: "I'd", which also means
"I had", but we say: "I'd".
