Good morning, KOTOZ! Good for you, not very good for us. You are really good for challenging: you’ve moped the floor with our group (I mean you defeated us easily, an idiom. I wrote this on purpose not to offend someone with the expression)

As all women I have a lot of house work, of course! I’m not happy with that. I thought we had say “wipe the dust”. But now I can express my less favorable duty two ways! Thank you, Alex!

Can you guess what I wrote? I remember, you have already wrote a word in Persian, that’s why I wrote in Persian.

nkh

The top comment is for you, kotoz.

nkh

Kotoz! I have to add some more responsibilities for myself.
My cat, my favorite fluffy stripy elderly cat went for peeing at the hall!!!
I have to punish her, but firstly I should find and catch her. She is cruel cat with sharp claws and canines. But I’m fast and furious! I will succeed!

nataanna

I advise u 2 replace it with A dinosaur

kotoz

Dragon?! It will be crossing a line!
I’ll have two options then: to be burned or to be drowned (if my new pet drinks too much and in wrong places)

nataanna

Hello dear Nataanna. Thanks for your reply. In my country, after high school, students HAVE TO take an exam, known as Kankor. Actually it’s a test. It’s so hard that students study and become ready for that, from three or two years before the day of exam. If students can pass this exam or in the other word they can get a great rank, they will enter our best colleges and choose their favorite discipline.
Now I’m becoming ready for Kankor too. Actually next two years, I’m going to take this exam too.

nkh

The Russian equivalent for Kankor is named Unified State Examination. Every year it’s getting more and more complicated. Two years ago my daughter passed it. She had been prepared for it for three years with tutors, but she didn’t get the proper rank to study for free. So you see it’s as hard as you have.
I’m very surprised with your ages. I supposed you were older, because of your mature mindset! You are incredible! Your English is great! I think you will ace the test!
And is it one test, or is it separated into different disciplines?

nataanna

How cool. No, I’m too young!!! I’m a freshman student in highscool!!!Thank you so much for your kindness. I also hope I CAN achieve a great rank in this exam.
This exam has been separated in several disciplines. The first one is experimental science that I’m studying in this one, the second one is mathematics and physics, the third one is humanity. Frankly, I don’t know others in english, but they are the most important ones. Shahid-Beheshti medical college, Tehran college, Amir-Kabir college, Shiraz college,Bu-Ali-Sina college and many other colleges are the best ones in Iran which students like me compete with to gether to enter these colleges.

nkh

It happens to all of us. Maybe you’ll have more motivation tomorrow.

Alex

Got 100% ☺. It was a useful lesson ,alex! Thanks a lot.

Alex

TEJALKK

Don’t get upset. Keep trying. And you will achieve a clean sweep of the competition!

nataanna

What a beautiful cat. Is it your own cat????
Nataanna, to tell you the truth, I couldn’t believe you have a daughter who is _somehow _peer with me. I thought you may have a little kid!!! ?

nkh

Yep! Not only my daughter is about your age, but even my cat. She is sixteen.
Life is weird. We all are players.
Even my cat! She pretends to be herbivorous. But has the tiger’s soul.
And I consider myself much younger than I actually am.
The EngVid’ve built the house where we live and chat! Different countries, different ages, but sharing the common idea – to speak English fluently!
I’m happy with that.

nataanna

beautiful picture for your profile nataanna , i like cats. by the way i’ve let you a comment in the previous Alex’s lesson on the cat idioms,do you remember? could you please reply me?

SKIKDA

Sorry, I will check

nataanna

Well said! Really! And very touched…

Thanks

pakopaco

I join to the idea! But, please, could you show how to operate with tools as well. Because they aren’t strong girls’ side.
Be careful with hammer, please…

Alex

Dear teacher
Greetings from Afghanistan
i am very glad to follow your professional lessons. could you guide me to follow your all lessons step by step please

Hekmatullah Hakimi

what is the different between ‘wipe’ and ‘ wipe off’

SKIKDA

“Could you wipe the orange juice off the table?”
“Could you wipe (off) the table?”

“Off” is mandatory in the first sentence and optional in the second. :) Does that make sense?

Alex

thank you Alex for this clarification, i got it and i will never forget it.

SKIKDA

hi guys tomorrow , certainly it will be a new lesson on engVid and i ask everyone ,who want to compete to be the firt one who will comment ? i am waiting for your reply competitor.

SKIKDA

Dear SKIKDA. TODAY , is that TOMORROW that you waited for it YESTERDAY !!! Did you understand????? For get about it!!!!

By the way I’m not the first one!!!! AS USUAL…………..

nkh

Hi I’m Reading Nosrat education ….I’m happy for Engvid .. I think the means help us to understand better English . ? this is right or Not ?

amirrezaee

Heureusement que ma femme ne parle pas Anglais, j’aurais trop de travail.
Merci, Alex.

beernaard

Oh, what a beautiful coincidence!

I tell you. Lately, I didn’t watch engvid videos because I was busy. The reason is because I’m in Australia studying English. I have to work also. So, recently I’ve found a job as a cleaner. So this vocabulary fits like a glove.

Thank you so much, Alex!
I wish you the best of luck.

Ramiro.

Very good, Alex. Thanks.

Júlio César L Sousa

It has been an interesting lesson as always, but with the jargon or slang own of this type of job, it makes the difference between the verb or action and the object or tool of this action, like a sweep/broom, mop/mop, wipe off/cloth, vacuum/vacuum cleaner, scrub/tissue, dust off/duster and so on. Enjoying to learn new vocabulary and expressions, thank a lot, teacher Alex, a good performance.

angardiobel

When I clean up, I usually use a wet cloth, and then use a vacuum cleaner. Thank you for your lesson, Alex :)

Thank you and I’m looking forward to your next lesson! See you later.
