First of all i would like to thank you for your taching us by doing this great help. Then i am very interested in speaking english, so i need to help me how to speak english fluencly.once again thank you.
This lesson is vary helpful for me.Thanks a lot.
Good lesson!
What means Had and was I know they are past simple and perfact>
when we use
Those are irregular verbs. If you don’t understand what they are mean, you should fine a lesson about word “to be” and “to have” on this site.
I meant “find a lesson”
Had is the past simple of have.
Was is the past simple of to be.
thank you very match techer m ronnie i’am from algeria realy i like this site web and your lesson is very helpful for mee.
the way haw you teatche is realy cool fantastic realy i love you thinks i hope that i can reminde you one day.
really you are good teacher
Thank you =)
your welcome
I learned a lot and had fun too. Thank you very much!
Ronnie, You said that you don’t say “I overslept” but rather “I slept in”. I have always been tought by different teachers that overslept is ok. Here is a link to a dictionary with the word: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/oversleep. I’m confused now:)
I said we don’t SAY overslept….it does not mean it is incorrect- we just don’t use it!
Ronnie, next sentence is wrong or right?
I’m the person who always do the right things?
Wrong.
why it is wrong?
please say the right sentence.
The right sentence would be:
I’m the person who always “DOES” the right things. . .
Wow, you were so extensive, thank youuuu v.m. . .
wrong
Maybe:”I’m the person who always DOES the right things?”
That’s right. I was unsure about this, but now I know it. . .
maybe: I`m the person who doing the right things
“Who doing” is wrong, you can say “who was doing” (past) “who is doing” (present) “who will be doing” (future)
Also > “Who did” (past) “Who does” (general) can mean present and future
‘kill yourself’ is an awesome answer! lol
i got 100% in this test
thanks for your lessons it help me a lot….
For the first time, I understood everything!

What a lucky a man!!!!!!!
yeah we live in Canada best country of of the world, the country of multicultural ..
are you from Egypt?
mam what is yours e mail address ?
hi Ronnie..Thanks a lot for the video..I wanna ask you something:
The writer was accused of _______the English language by coining new words.(corrupt)..The answer given by the book is “corrupting”..my confusion is why the answer is “corrupting” instead of corrupted(verb)? and what tenses of the word “corrupting”?Is it gerund or adjective?
Actually I try this question in a vocabulary exercise book…I really hope that you or somebody could help me please…
We use a gerund after prepositions/phrases.
Here is a list of some!!!!!
We use the Gerund after the following phrases:
accuse of They were accused of breaking into a shop.
agree with I agree with playing darts.
apologize for They apologize for being late.
believe in She doesn’t believe in getting lost in the wood.
blame for The reporter is blamed for writing bad stories.
complain about She complains about bullying.
concentrate on Do you concentrate on reading or writing?
congratulate sb. on I wanted to congratulate you on making such a good speech.
cope with He is not sure how to cope with getting older.
decide against They decided against stealing the car.
depend on Success may depend on becoming more patient.
dream about/of Sue dreams of being a pop star.
feel like They feel like going to bed.
get used to You must get used to working long hours.
insist on The girls insisted on going out with Mark.
look forward to I’m looking forward to seeing you soon.
prevent sb. from sth. How can I prevent Kate from working in this shop?
rely on sth. He doesn’t rely on winning in the casino.
succeed in How then can I succeed in learning chemistry?
specialize in The firm specialized in designing websites.
stop sb. from I stopped Andrew from smoking.
talk about/of They often talk about travelling to New Zealand.
think of Frank thinks of playing chess.
warn sb. against We warned them against using this computer.
worry about The patient worries about having the check-up.
Corrupting is somthing that is currently happening or still happening, continuing to happen,
Corrupted means it has already happened, past tense.
Hey there Ronnie! Hope you are doing good! i need you to help me out, i always get confused in the use of “be form” & be,been,being.. for example you should have been there! you must be confused! dont try to be extra smart! i have been waiting for you etc , i never understand the use of be and be forms.. it would be great if you do a lesson on this ,as i need a detailed explanation for that ,and i have consulted many websites and grammar books for this purpose but it was all in vain! You’r my last hope ! It’d be great of you to do that!
I will try and make a video for you…but search engvid to see if there is one already made by a different teacher!
In the meantime….
“Be” is the present tense, Ex. I try to be funny. When we use a adjective (funny) we have to use “to be” verb.
“Been” is the past participle (p.p). We use been with present perfect, have/has + p.p. past perfect had + p .p and passive voice.was/were + p.p
“Being” is the continuous form. ex. Present continuous I am being searched.
hey thanks alot ronnie but i will really appreciate if you make a video because when you’ll teach that ill better understand it that way
Hi Ronnie, I learn a lot from your lessons, Thank you so much.
Is the sentence right?
“I look forward to meeting you.”
because after the word “to” the the present tense of the verb “meet” must come, how the word “meeting” is came”
Yes, the sentence is correct! In English grammar, there are many “exceptions” to rules! Looking forward to + gerund is one of them!
What’s about I’m looking forward to meet you is it correct ?
i got 100%
ronnie! you’re just great and awesome.I love the way you teach. you never let me feel that I’m learning something or taking a class as I feel in my university classes. go on…..!
Thank you so much Ronnie ,I like your style
Hi Ronnie..I’d like to thank you for your topics , All your subjects nice, useful and the way of teaching each topic puzzled me so I have nothing to say just: thank you my best teacher
hi! Ronnie i want ask what is the best way to learn English ? because i want to be a good speaking english? and thinks for your topic:)
If you want to speak English, the best way is to live in an English speaking country!
i hope that all my answer is correct
Good lecture,but I would like to ask you about what difference between those phrases:
Well, I’ll tell you when to take it.
Well, I’II tell you when I take it.
Well, I’ll tell you when to take it = you will give someone instructions to take something at a certain time.
Well, I’II tell you when I take it = you are going to take something and then you will tell a person when you completed the action!
thank u so much Mrs.Ronnie
by the what is difference between these sentences:
1- sorry I’m late. I overslept.
2- we usually sleep in on Sunday morning.
best wishes
WE DON’T SAY I OVERSLEPT>>>>>> Slept in. This means you slept too long and are late.
“We usually sleep in on Sunday morning ” means you sleep to a later time on Sunday then the rest of the week.
”If you have to leave the class, you should: cry ” …kkkkkkkkkkk … funny quiz. xD.. and about this lesson.. haa, very, very useful.. thank you so much, teacher.
Thank you! funny quiz
I’m getting hocked with your lessons, this lessons is very interesting, fun and instructive, you are getting better and better every day.
Thank you and go on.
wow!! teacher your lesson was very nice but i would like to ask u about slept.we can make a setence with “slept ” word ?
I slept in.
Last night I slept for 10 hours.
Slept is the past tense of sleep!
Hello, I like your teaching methods. Everything easy to understand. Thanks
Very nice lesson. Thank you Ronnie.
I’m delighted by following that important lesson showing the polite way to act in class.
I so pleased that I found this website. for me Ronnie is the best teacher so far. I haven’t hear the other ones but I will appreciate if you make a lesson about pronouncing the letter H
can you tell me differences between EXPERT and SPECIALIST
Why do you ask what is the difference between two synonyms? There is no difference, except the word EXPERT can be either a noun and an adverb, and SPECIALIST is only a noun.
I meant adjective, sorry. . .
A specialist is someone who has gone to school (university) and graduated from a particular program….Eg An English teacher specializing in Contemporary Poetry.
An expert however, is a step above and knows EVERYTHING about their specialty! Eg.. I can be a chef, specializing in French food, but I am an expert in pastries!! An expert is above a specialist!
thank u so much Ronnie
Hi How are you? Ronnie. Kyou mo tanoshikatta desu. Domo arigatou. You are my new charming and funny teacher.

Hello Ronnie,
Could you please tell me which sentences below are correct?
How long does it take here to Moscow?
How long does it take from here to Moscow?
How long does it take you to the nearest airport?
And to ask how long we still in a vehicle when we are in the middle of the trip is How long does it still take? Is that correct or incorrect? If incorrect, would you please correct it?
Thank you very much indeed.
Best wishes, Ronnie
How long does it take from here to Moscow? is correct! The other 2 are wrong.
And to ask how long we still in a vehicle when we are in the middle of the trip is. = How much longer until we get there? How much further is it? Are we there yet?!
How long doe’s it take to go from here to Moscow (or to get from here to Moscow)
During your road trip you would ask > How much longer will it take? Or Will it take much longer?
Dear Mrs Ronnie,
I’ve been watching english lessons from Engvid since last year. Today I’ve watched the last one, and now can officially say that I’ve learnt lots of things from all of you, especially from you Ronnie. Everything I would say about your site has to do with positive ascertainments. The reason why I decided to write this message to you is that you’ve always, but always responded regularly to our comments, and you are the teacher who the most deserves compliments. None of your lessons was in vain, every lesson, even if it was the shortest one, has provided specific knowledge for us, and on that way helped to improve our language skills. I know there is a long way to go until I become familiar with english, but every improvement is one step forward, and that is something what is important. By this occasion I’d like to encaurage all students who are improving their language skills with Engvid, to say them never give up from laerning. Maybe in some moments we can be frustrated, but it’s always a pleasure when we overcome it. Once again, you Engvid teachers are doing Great, Excellent job for us, and I promise I will never forget where I first started to learn english, and where I made first steps in this Wonderful language.
Yours faithfully
Marko
Wow! Your comment was FANTASTIC!!!! YOur English is great Marko! Thanks for all the kind words and encouragement for the other learners! Thanks for your hard work and best of luck in your English !!!!!
ronnie i have found a lot of comments about your lessons so i want to benifit from you as a good teacher .Iwant to be good in english as possible as you can .thank you
Thanks for all the kind words and encouragement for us MArko.
Yours faithfully
Silvio
Thank you very much Ronnie. I really like your style of teaching. Could you please tell me how to use percent and percentage? In my language there is only one word for this, so I am confused when to use percent or percentage. Thank you very much in advance.
“Percent” should be used with a number. Eg…I got 42% (percent)
If there is no number, use “percentage.” A large percentage of men like beer.
i’m bathroom!! watch out……lolxDDD
my question is that there are a lots of types of phrasel verbs that i got confused i know there but i did not let my slef to keep them cuse there will be more cuse i have readen alot of different books
Yes, there are lot of phrasal verbs, and it is hard to know which ones we use……You should try to watch movies with English subtitles, and read English books/magazines/websites to see which ones we use!
the lessons were useful.
can i say to teacher
mam can i please piss off to toilet
HHAHAHAHA If you said this it would be VERY rude….and only understood in the UK!!!!!
hiiii there ^^ i’m achoura from algeria and i’m english teacher, if you don’t mind would you provide me by a lesson about comparatives and supperlatives adjectives plz ^^ i loved the way you teach and i’ve used with my students , they loved too .
Search on the site for the lesson – it has been done already!!!!!
Hi . I am new student .I like the way you teach us .thank you for everything
thanks
How can i change my picture
Ronnie, could you explain me when do we use the words afterward, toward, forward, backward, upward, inward etc., and when afterwords, towards. . . When do we add S, and when we don’t?
hi teacher Ronnie I learn something from you thanks a lot.I hope that someday I can speak English Language correctly….
Ronnie! how are you? i like your lessons so much i listen to one every a few day . i confuse in meaning of “so that” in text please send me explanation of this word with examples of each meaning
So that implies that one action needs another to be completed. Ex.. I will go to the movies so that I can write a movie review. If I don’t go to the movies, I can’t write a review.
Ex.. I will pay $20 so that I can park here. If I don’t pay, I can’t park.
Oh my god ! Ronnie you are realy the best !!!
you make laugh in every time I followe your lessons,but this helps alot to capt the informations, seriously.And the quizz was too fun *laughing out loud* !!!! And i have a question : Do you speak french ? !!! I’m curious !!!
Hello!
I am glad you like the lessons. No, I cannot speak French. I can read it, but not speak or understand it. In Canada, we are taught French in school – grammar and spelling but we didn’t have the opportunity to use (speak) it. I am from Ontario, no one around me spoke French, so I didn’t care about learning it! If I live in Quebec/New Brunswick or other French speaking places in Canada, I would have been able to speak French!
Okay!! Thanks for your respounse Ronnie ! I’m becoming a fan of you O_o.
*you make laugh* I made that mistake !!
I’m correcting it wow *you make (ME)*
thank you!I learn….<3
your a good teacher!!!
Hi Ronnie,
First of all, I’d like to thank you for your help us. secondly I have a question.
I don’t know that Why sometimes “the” is pronounced “dee” and sometimes is pronounced “zaa”?
If possible please make a video in this case.
Thank you
The reason we say dee and zaa is because when we talk, we mix words together and don’t say all of the sounds, so words change their pronunciation!
Unfortunately I still do not understand.
My question is: how to pronounce “the”?
Like “the Apple” that you say “Dee Apple” or “the House” that you say “Zaa House”
I don’t know when and where I use correct pronounce.
Thanks
Hi Nima,
The rule is: “Dee” before vowels (the Apple, the Artist, the Engineer) and “Zaa” before consonants (the House, the Dog, the Teacher).
I looked it up in my Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary.
Good luck!
Hi Cristina, Thank you soooooo much.
Have a great day.
It is very hard to type a phonic (sound) for “The”, Dee and Zaa do not sound correct, you would be better to use google dictionary as it has a small speaker symbol, click on the speaker symbol and a voice will say the correct pronounciation for any words you have typed.
Hello Chris,
I think Nima’s doubt is not about phonetic symbols. The important thing here is that “THE” is pronounced differently depending on what comes after: vowel or consonant.
That is the point!
Have a nice weekend!!!
Hello Cristina, You’re exactly right.
Thanks again.
Hello Nima,
I’m glad that I could help!!!
Have a nice day!
It’s not exactly right, Dee and Zaa sound nothing like The when spoken, they will only give an idea of a sound to pronounce The you’ll place your tounge between your teeth build up a little pressure in your mouth and quickly pull your tounge back to make the Th sound then extend the sound a little eea “The”
Dee sound you will push your tounge against the back of your upper front teeth then open your mouth a little pulling your tounge back as you say dee?
Zee> teeth tight together making a zzz sound and mouth opening slightly to get the eee “Zee” try each slowly and feel how you make the sounds with your tounge and teeth positions, “The” will always sound like The, The car, the house, The weather, The time, TH?
“The” is pronounced in a variety of ways by foreigners who are not natural english speakers, I suggested listening to it as it removes any doubt about how to pronounce it?
Filipino’s for example do not use L or V Example they prounce Love as Lub, Fifty as bipty etc, so I thought better to hear the word than to guess how prounce Dee or Zee to sound like The? Thanks for your reply
Hello dear Nima. I’m from Iran, too. I’m from Sarakhs, In khorasan Razavi.

Hi Ronnie,Your teaching skill is very good, so easy to understand and funny! it is very important that the lesson is not boring.
I would like to ask you if you explain to me the differance between get and take. I see we use very open these words. expecially when we make a decisino to bring or have. thank you. Take care.
Hey Ronnie, test is a shorter exam, and exam is a larger test, hahaha so philosophical :)
thanks 4 ur lesson…..tell me plzzz which one is correct in the following?
1)that lady needs tuition for his son.
2)that lady needs tuition for her son.
That lady needs tuition for her son is the correct sentence. Pay attention on the following rules:
I-my-mine
You-your-yours
He-his-his
She-her-hers
It-its-n/a
We-our-ours
They-their-theirs
So you have subject, adjective and personal pronoun. Hence, lady needs tuition for her son! Here is another example which you are going to do. He met _____ wife in the store yesterday! What is the correct answer?

hi ronnie
i want to ask you somthing
1-what does (be) going to express the past the present or the futur
2-wich time does the present continuous refer to in the following sentence
we are staying in Bejaia for about a week.
Be going to +base verb expresses future. I am going to go home.
Sub + verb+ing ( I’m going home/She is eating an apple) is present continuous.
We are staying in Behaia for a week. Is present continuous.
The Present Continuous Tense is also used to talk about activities happening in the near future, especially for planned future events.
I am seeing my dentist on Wednesday.
Polly is coming for dinner tomorrow.
Are you doing anything tonight?
We aren’t going on holiday next week.
thank you so much you are the best.
Thank you so much Ronnie you are the best :)
Hi Ronnie Mam,
The way you teach us is superb, We love you a lot.
My question is, if someone ask me what’s up or what are you doing, what do I reply to him or which one is correct and why:
1. I am doing work
2. I am working
Awaiting your response.
Thanks.
Both are correct but I would most likely say I’m working!
Thank you Mam.

Hi Ronnie!
Can we use expression “May I go out?” instead of “Can I please go to the washroom”? Is it acceptable? Is it more formal?
Thanks in advance:)
Hi Ronnie
please say to me is it correct or not when somebody call teacher in the class”teacher”? isnt a bit offensive?
thank you very much
Hi Ronnie,
I found your teaching approach very interesting. Your body language is also superb, well-done. Please, I need your advice on this issue:
1. I applied for a program in UK before I left my country for USA for a 4 month training program. As at the time of leaving my country, I presumed that the proof of English language had been waved for me. Surprisingly, the school is asking me to provide an evidence of good score in IELTS latest by second week in August.Please, what is your advice. I need to score high, at least 8
2. Naturally, I speak too fast and I often get embarrassed when others could not understand me. Please, how can I get over this?
3. Can you recommend a good teacher for me in Buffalo,NY.
Thanks
100% :D
:P
