In many countries, this is the time when schools and universities start their new years. In this English vocabulary lesson I teach some simple slang you might hear in the classroom. You’ll learn about the following terms: pop quiz, straight A's, cram, killed, bombing.
Hi Alex,
Thanks for your slangs lecture. they are very good and intresting indeed. you see, after watching your video, i killed the quiz..Thanks again!
Have a nice day!
Shing Mang Tun

Hello,
The first time I read Vietnamese’s comment. I also like this lesson and I feel happy to know you are Vietnamese…Nice to meet you!
truongxuanhoang
very interesting classes thank you.
joseph xavier
Hullo!
The very first,tnx in advance.
A ? i have:When we use the expression
“indeed i do”?!
Fatiima
If you want to emphasize a short answer to a yes/no present simple question.
“Do you like your new place?”
“Indeed, I do!”
“Does he own a dog?”
“Indeed, he does.”
It’s a bit formal, but can be used in a slightly joking manner as well.
“Are you tired?”
“Indeed, I am.”
Alex
Excellent! I’ve learnt a lot today!
norma lara

I didnt need to cram..so I wasnt to afraid of bombing my quiz….
(I know that there are very wrong in writting..so please correct that for me)thank you so much
Qaswara
Actually, your grammar is perfect here, aside from using “straight A’s,” since it’s just a test mark, and not a full term mark.
Alex
I really love your lessons, Alex. It’s very helpful because every time you make hand gestures that help us very much… [forgive my worst writinng.. ¬¬’ .. kkkk ]

Hi, Alex! I’ve wathed at your lessons every day for last two weeks, and I’ve enjoyed them a lot! I suspect that you have received from God the gift of a teacher.

Thanks ! Mr Alex . I killed the test.
audary
Alex, i love your lessons especially this one, so could you upload more about the school slang? i am so into it.
thank you
tangtangtang
good lesson alex! we need to know all about theese expressions
Murilo
Alex, now I’ll give you a wonderful idea what to do, so we’ll be able to learn it as well. Could you make the list of compound adjectives? For example well-known, well-to-do, so-called etc. Please, do it for us, we want to learn as much as we can. Thank you in advance
Student
alex laughed a lot with yours examples, I am just do not agree with the last one, when you tell the reason why the named bombing. Here in Brazil we use the same slang.But the reason it’s because we have to know how to disarm the bomb, if we can’t do that, the bomb will explode.
But your explain was funny ! ty bro
danyelok
Thank you for your best videos.
Mr.Alex , I always confused PRESENT PERFECT TENSE and PAST PERFECT TENSE and PAST CONTINUOUS TENSE.

Thanks Mr. Alex for such a nice teaching. PLZ have a look at my passage, Thanks again.
“when I was in School, my friends always used to killed the pop quiz and I bombed. But when I went to university, I was also among the killing students who always killed the pop quiz and got a straight A’s in every semester. Because of regular study, I didn’t need to cram. And as for me, cramming gives just a temporary success and I am forward looking to a permanent success”

is it correct to say.. i killed my exam! ” i did vey well” !! ??
niveen25
very .sorry!
niveen25
Thanks
anas
hi there! Alex, here in Brazil it’s pretty normal to use a similar expression to “kill a test” when we get successful in it. The point is, we use it when we get 100% of it. We say “eu fechei a prova de inglês”, what would literally be translated as “I closed the English test”.
As you mentioned, you use “kill” when you get 90 or 100%, on average.
So, my question is: is there a special expression when I get 100%?
Thank you!
china
thanks

Please reply me as soon as possible.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for your slangs lecture. they are very good and intresting indeed. you see, after watching your video, i killed the quiz..Thanks again!
Have a nice day!
good job!!!!
Thanks, you too! Keep practicing and using the expressions you learn in real life.
Hi Alex
could you help me how to know uses of phrasal Verb, especially intransitive, transitive phrasal Verb
Thanks
Hi there, may God bless and reward u …with love from Hope School.
I got 4 out of 4 so i think i got straight A’s and killed the quiz. thank u Alex for this usefull lesson
Hi alex, it is the first time i hear these slangs, that is so useful for me, i often bomb on my exam, so your lesson is a pop quiz today, i will kill my next text, thanks.
Hello,
The first time I read Vietnamese’s comment. I also like this lesson and I feel happy to know you are Vietnamese…Nice to meet you!
very interesting classes thank you.
Hullo!
The very first,tnx in advance.
A ? i have:When we use the expression
“indeed i do”?!
If you want to emphasize a short answer to a yes/no present simple question.
“Do you like your new place?”
“Indeed, I do!”
“Does he own a dog?”
“Indeed, he does.”
It’s a bit formal, but can be used in a slightly joking manner as well.
“Are you tired?”
“Indeed, I am.”
Excellent! I’ve learnt a lot today!
Well I believe you doing a wonderfull job so I appreciated the time you spend on us thanks
Thank You! That was super!
with your help inshAllah i’ll kill all English tests :)
inshallah :))

hi
Alex i have a question for you
that is when the person do not want any test even he has to give the test what we call them ?
Hmm, I’m not sure if I fully understand your question, taimoor. A lazy student? :)
Dear Alex, thank you so much.
This quiz was so easy. So I killed it
Got 5 of 5
thanks alot
I killed the quiz and got straight A`s
I didnt need to cram..so I wasnt to afraid of bombing my quiz….
(I know that there are very wrong in writting..so please correct that for me)thank you so much
Actually, your grammar is perfect here, aside from using “straight A’s,” since it’s just a test mark, and not a full term mark.
I really love your lessons, Alex. It’s very helpful because every time you make hand gestures that help us very much… [forgive my worst writinng.. ¬¬’ .. kkkk ]
Thanks Alex i love the way you teach,it helps allot,it makes learning English to be easier.

Hello teacher. It was pop quiz you give me, I thought that I’ll bombing on it, but I didn’t, I just killed it. Thank you teacher. :D
thnkz Alex but the video is not working where i’m .I mean am in Sudan
Youtube might still be blocked in Sudan. Can you see any other videos? Make sure your browser is the latest version — if you still can’t see videos on Youtube, you might have to use a proxy.
Hi, Alex! I’ve wathed at your lessons every day for last two weeks, and I’ve enjoyed them a lot! I suspect that you have received from God the gift of a teacher.
Thanks ! Mr Alex . I killed the test.
Alex, i love your lessons especially this one, so could you upload more about the school slang? i am so into it.
thank you
good lesson alex! we need to know all about theese expressions
Alex, now I’ll give you a wonderful idea what to do, so we’ll be able to learn it as well. Could you make the list of compound adjectives? For example well-known, well-to-do, so-called etc. Please, do it for us, we want to learn as much as we can. Thank you in advance
alex laughed a lot with yours examples, I am just do not agree with the last one, when you tell the reason why the named bombing. Here in Brazil we use the same slang.But the reason it’s because we have to know how to disarm the bomb, if we can’t do that, the bomb will explode.
But your explain was funny ! ty bro
Thank you for your best videos.
Mr.Alex , I always confused PRESENT PERFECT TENSE and PAST PERFECT TENSE and PAST CONTINUOUS TENSE.

Thanks Mr. Alex for such a nice teaching. PLZ have a look at my passage, Thanks again.
“when I was in School, my friends always used to killed the pop quiz and I bombed. But when I went to university, I was also among the killing students who always killed the pop quiz and got a straight A’s in every semester. Because of regular study, I didn’t need to cram. And as for me, cramming gives just a temporary success and I am forward looking to a permanent success”

4 out of 4. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much!
Excellent tips Alex, thank you and i wish you a happy new year
Thank you for the lesson. Are we not supposed to say “Joanna said she had killed her test?
is it correct to say.. i killed my exam! ” i did vey well” !! ??
very .sorry!
Thanks
hi there! Alex, here in Brazil it’s pretty normal to use a similar expression to “kill a test” when we get successful in it. The point is, we use it when we get 100% of it. We say “eu fechei a prova de inglês”, what would literally be translated as “I closed the English test”.
As you mentioned, you use “kill” when you get 90 or 100%, on average.
So, my question is: is there a special expression when I get 100%?
Thank you!
thanks
I go to the class and Pop quiz to my student
Tomorrow I have a test , and I have to cram any thing in my mind now
