Valery teacher

I have 5he some questions
Thanks.

Mouhcine tene

And you call yourself “teacher” ? So funny !

NataliaSh.

What is really funny is that you tried so hard to leave here that silly comment :) This action describes you as aт envious person :))
Btw, Rebecca is one of my favourite teachers.
All the best dear!

toughcat

Smart! Then you would use the plural:

The gold coins are
The gold bricks are

All the best!

Rebecca

You are exquisite!

OliChiver

100% correct answer…wow

Sher Karim

Hi Rebecca!
I’ve a question.
——-
4. __________ any of the presentations interesting?
Was
Were
“Presentations” is a plural countable noun, which must be followed by a plural form of the verb (were).
———
ANY is a singular. Why must we use the WERE?

Alex

Hi, Alex!
ANY isn’t only singular. It can be both – singular or plural. It depends of the noun after ANY OF. In this example the noun is “presentations” which is plural. See the video again, there is a pretty similar sentence with ANY.
:-)

Yanitsa

You must have had your head in the clouds when you were watching this video. Any could be singular or plural and this was mentioned in the earlier part of the video.

Great lesson. Thanks Rebecca.

byte

That was great , thank you❤

Kamand❤

hello sister you taught great thank u so much for that

anwes

Sometime i saw in books they use were with (I) and in some places was is used with (I) what should we use with (I) was or were

Muqaddas123

Almost always, you must use “I was”.
You only use the other option in conditional sentences such as: “If I were rich, I would…”
All the best!

Rebecca

Why use ‘were’ in this sentence?
“If I were rich, I would…”

nezakat

hi mam
i have one doubt may be it will be big foolishness any i m asking
“most of my home work is finished”
here “is finished ” is correct?
Sometime I am confused with when “is ” come with a past verb(finished) while helping verb “is ” is a present ???
i hope you understand what i meant.

Shafeeque k

I think in this sentence, passive voice was used.

Hi, Teacher Rebecca. Thank you a lot for the information. But I think there must be a mistake in https://www.engvid.com/english-resource/countable-and-uncountable-nouns/. The “glass” under General Category is uncountable only instead of both. See https://learnersdictionary.com/definition/glass. I’m actually a bit confused of this. Which is which? Thank you.
