simara2013

I think they are transitions, but the answer of quiz is wrong. But I’m not sure about it. I got 9/10 too.

claudio77

congrats

tohaxxx

Hey there.

fanos945

Hi Simara. I also have the same question as you had. It was not given in her lecture about slang words. So i picked transitional words instead. I really think it is correct. Thanks for listening. God bless.

Renebon

same here!

Igor

“Secondly, most importantly, above all, for example, such as, therefore, then ” are all considered slangs?

simara2013

Simara, I think there is an mistake about that question, these words are not slangs. These are transitions words. I kiss from Argentina. I hope see you in the soccer world cup 2014. Bye

josedelgado

Definitely not. All this words are transitions for sure. The answer is wrong.

danielssoares

I am also very confuse? Need clarification, why are they slang?

NewDream

I´m going to Brazil 2014!, to the 2014 FIFA World Cup!. I´m exciting!, A huge Siamara.

cheinganso

JAMESSS

Oh!

Don’t argue with the teacher!

Hi! I would like to point out that the answer 6 is wrong. I strongly think that they are transitions instead of slang.

I am not convinced about the answer of the sixth question of the quiz, is it really slang and not transitions?

galileo345

9 out of 10, there is a problem in question no 6.
Thanks.

Bashar

I do not know why i always get 9 out of ten in all of exams on this website
maybe 9 number wants to contract with me?
I wish it comes on my paper exam in academic ielts :D

reza1988

Secondly, most importantly,
above all, for example, such as, therefore, then alot aren’t transitions?

chakim hamzah

..Dear Emma,

I’m just curious about question 6. I believe those words are what we call Transition words. Is that right? Or is it really considered as a slang words?

Yukinaruzegawa

Ibraribroo

No.

engVid Moderator

Hi Ms. Emma, I have a doubt with regards to the answer about question no. 6, I thought those were transitions

at09@engvid

riyadhzuhdi

How question 6 is slang?

babubrt

Thanks Emma
Nice class !!!!

edwin oviedo

useful class

georgeokosu

Emma, is answer for # 6 correct?

Mirabella

Hi mirabella, I suppose there is a wrong answer for this question. I got 9 out 10 because of this kkkk. Definitely the correct answer is “transitions”

Humberto Dantas de Matos

@mirabella
would you like to practice speaking?

Rezwan ali

Hi dear Emma
First of all I want to say tank you for your attempt to make your students’s English improvement,
Second I think there is a lack of a lesson which be contain the procedur of describing event that they happen in the time. I mean describing event in whole times for example p&pp&now&fututre&…

Israel

Hi Emma, could you team develop a mobile app which covers all these videos?
You might get money from that :))

leminhtien279

Hey Guys, I believe there’s something wrong with the answer of question 6. I answered transitions, And the correct answer were marked as “slang”.

Humberto Dantas de Matos

What if I speak longer than 2 minutes, will I get lower score?

Turbold Ts

Great lesson,thanks

Samet4

Hi dear Emma.
The answer of the question 6 is wrong.
Secondly, most importantly, above all, for example, such as, therefore and then are transitions not slangs !

Of course you know that.

Mohsen Barati

Hi Emma. I really love your lessons. You´re one of my favourite teacher ;)

oscarpanzutto

manoj manthri

Secondly, most importantly, above all, for example, such as, therefore, then
these are the examples of transitions, aren’t they?
I found the correct answer is slang in the quiz, why?
