thank you for this wonderful video.
i’m really love your videos.
afwan, yaa akhii … don’t use “be” to action verb!! syukran katsiir
Thanks, easy but sweeti from you to give the new term of endearment!
Maybe i had a mistakes so ever woman write to me a comment of my articles i write to her, kiss you, sweeti,
And the most mistake i was did, that call the shop assistance “darling”, once of them said i am not your darling, i am her for working, and she refused to sell me!
So the favorite tear i use: darling,
Kiss you,
Eve more i use love you for unknown women!
Thanks again, for the new lesson,
Here in Poland we also use other sweet or shiny things to call a partner like: doughnut, precious (as a noun). We also call them using animal names like: kitty, frog (a diminutive form), honeybee, puppy, mouse (again a diminutive form).
And now an ugly example:
I’ve heard once (in a conversation between only guys) someone who asked his friend: “do you go alone or maybe with your PIG?” O_o :P I know, it is not nice, but sometimes between “dirty” guys this kind of expression exists.
Have an excelent day for all of you. You too Ronnie :*
Thanks Ronnie
Hey Ronnie , can you tell me where to start as I want to cover all of the content in engvid from beginner to advance and from each and every teacher can anyone give me a tidy order of where to start from engvid
Hej Ronnie! Thanks for this useful lesson.I always enjoy watching your beautiful lessons, you are unique.
Pupa – in Lithuania some guys call girls, it’s mean the bean.
Pipa?
Too much sugar in this lesson hahaha
It´s so funny when you (or other teachers from EngVid) say a Spanish word XD
Thanks Ronnie!!
Thanks my sweet Ronnie, for this lesson.. it was great..
A sweet lesson and video class. Some of these terms are often used and written in pink stories of romantic people, also with your best and loved friends. Interesting words have been Snookums, Snooky and Snuggles because I haven’t seen them before. Thanks a lot, teacher Ronnie, sweet and candy explanation.
thank you, learn new words!
got it
HI Ronne
first of all i want to thank you and your colleagues very much,you are cause of improve our language , i wonder could be i make a suggestion if can getting a kind of a sound for this essay in the top center of a page because we read it but i am not sure from our pronunciation properly or not .
thanks a lot .
in Ukraine boys call girls – chick.
In our country girls often names boys kotik, it means in English “little cat”
In Mexico also we use “chaparro(a)”
Thanks, Ronnie.
Ronnie, what about the use of “dear” and “my dear”? Are they suitable when talking to strangers? Wich terms would be?
thanks a lot Ronnie, I loved when you said: “sugar tits” lol, by the way in Mexico we also refer to loved people in short way, I meant, we use at the end of the word “ito” “ita” ex. “gordito”, “chiquita”.
Have a good day “sweety”.
In China, we don’t have an access to youtube.com, is there an alternative for watching your lessons online-video?
Thank you Sweetums haha
Thank you Ronnie
Thanks for this useful lesson Ronnie . Here in Spain we usually use ”cariño, cielo , vida ” y muchos mas
Thanks Ronnie! It was a nice video.
Thank you, Ronnie!! Here in Colombia, we use to add a diminutive on words referring to people or objects we love. As an example, we say “bebesita”, “prince site”, “muñequita”. It applies also for people names, so you could be called “Ronniecita”. Thanks!!
very nice
thanks, sweetie pie who had more knowledge again to learned by me.
thanks
Here in Brazil we using many terms to refer to our loved person. p.e. Amor, docinho, lindinha, princesa,etc.
thanks i think your the best you should to speak about the fast learn :)
In Brasil people call their partnes: “nego” for boys, and “nega” (for girls), which means like “My NIGGA; My Black” in English, but it is used not only for black people, it is used with white/latin or even asian people (that are in large number here at São Paulo’s City)!

Thanks ronnie
thanks ronnie, your vedéos are very good and you are sugar…hhh
It’s really lucis way of presentation madam. Great to hear your class.
Thanks Ronnie, I’ve got 10 correct out of 10, :D and we’ve anothers kind of words in Mexico to refer love another person, but in this case “Gordo”, sometimes means love in others not, in some cases is a bad word and it depends in what way you’re saying it. Thank so much for this lesson, I learned lots of words.
I love your great lessons. You’re the greatest teacher.
I think here in Russia the most common are kitty (for women), sun, precious, cat (for men), fish (for kids and women), dear, goddess, doughnut, little baby. And now it’s very common to say in Russia the English word – baby(without any translation).
Thanx!
THANKS
Thank you dear! I love watching your videos <3
Hi Ronnie I am a kind of a fan of you. God bless you.
Thanks!! I think in my country we add “ing” or “-ng” to boyfriends’ name. I would call Jinung or Jinuring to my boyfriend Jinwoo. It’s a bit awkard in real, so I just use in mobile conversations..
Hi all can some one help me to starting beginning
In Brazil we call:
-Amor (= love) and variations like Mor, mozão etc;
-Chuchu (= chayote vegetable);
-Vida (= life)
-Paixão (= passion) -> I say this
ps: some speak gordo (= fat) to.
thanks
Hi Ronnie! Thank you for the exciting lesson about terms of endearment! :)
In Hungarian we use a lot of words with “sweet, sugar” meaning, but for example it is weird to call someone “honey”, because it is a food, so we don’t use this at all. But it is common to call someone “expensive”, I don’t know why. :D Or we use also “my star, my life, my little”.
Thanks, Ronnie
In South Korea, old grandparents call their grandchild “Puppy” or “my puppy” a lot.
we call wife “Yeobo” which means precious as much as tres
treasure and call husband “Dangsin” means same as my body.
very nice teacher, thanks for this important lesson,

Ronnie, this class describes exactly who you are: a kindy and sweetie person. Can I call you “babe”? Lol… kisses and hugs!
Hi Ronnie, there’s this song called “If I Were A Boy” by Beyonce and I’ve been wondering that why is it WERE instead of WAS? I thought WERE is used for more than one person?
That’s a good question! It’s “were” because it’s in the subjunctive mood. Beyoncé isn’t talking about being a boy in the past; she’s talking about a hypothetical (imaginary) situation where she is a boy.
(It’s not technically correct, but informally, many native speakers use “was”, e. g. “I wish I was a little bit taller.”)
Thanks Ronnie I understand now! But I am still not sure what a subjunctive mood is, could you please explain what it means or send me the link of your tutorial if you have one so I can see some more examples but if not, I wish you could do them in the future. I just want to let you know that you’re such a great teacher and you are easy to understand. I wish I had you as my English teacher at my school. I have been watching your tutorials and they are very helpful but I did not watch all of them because I’ve only watched the one that I struggled the most.
I’m not Ronnie, I’m just the Moderator! But here are a couple of lessons on the subjunctive:
English Grammar – The Subjunctive by Alex
English Grammar – “I wish…” – Subjunctive by Adam
are u newzealander? do they speak english, right?
Thanks a lot Ronnie I like the way you teaching!!:)
Ronnie The President :D
Hello Ronnie!
I’ve started to watch engVid lessons about a year or something ago.
I went to the US for few months while I was in school (about 10 years ago) – every year (for 4 consecutive years) I went for like 1 month and a half with an exchange program and I made a lot of friends.
I really love English and I use it in my everyday life. I can understand movies, songs, people talking fast (as you xD), have a conversation with people from within the US, Canada and non-english speaking countries with their different accents. I’ve got a pretty good accent (according to my American friends) and I try to watch, speak, and write in English when I can.
I’m noticing that, maybe because of lack of day-to-day conversations with natives, sometimes I forget to include a word, proverbs, common ways to say something or just jokes when I speak to someone, even though I understand everything. If I just look at the words afterwards I feel stupid for not remembering them. Plus in these days I feel like I can’t speak or understand as good as I did few years ago.
What do you think I could do to just “remove” this defect?
I’d love to move to the US for a job (so I know for sure I’ll improve everything), and I’m trying to since few years, but immigration laws and stuff give me hard times.
What do you suggest me? Would it be possible to get in touch with you in some paid speaking Skype sessions to get me in shape with my English?
If so you can contact me at a.malinverni@me.com
Thanks so much!
Love,
Andrea
thank you

Hi, Ronnie. Can you make a video about Internet Slang? Thanks a lot.
Thanks for this lesson Ronnie!
My favorite term of end endearment is “boo”, because it’s easy to pronounce in any language (I think).
I know two songs with the term “boo” – My Boo (Usher ft. Alicia Keys) and Dilemma (Nelly ft. Kelly Rowland). Great ones!

Funny how i thought “hot stuff” was a expression used to speak about sex, but the way you explain sounds more like a soft word.
thanks
Thank you very much for your video, Ronnie! In Russian we also have such terms of endearment as “pie”, “bun”. Also are very popular words, that are related to the pets: “kittie”, “rabbit”. “Sunny” is also a very common term.
Thanks Ronnie! Your class is so vivid.

Thank you, Ronnie! In Russia we can almost any word turn to term of endearment. From “piggie” to “raviolly”. Intonation makes the most high influence on meaning.
Ronnie you’re the best as you keep me moving excited on this program. In education you come across different kinds of words you’ve never heard before, now word of endearment is so interesting to me,because I have never heard it before
I got 9 and I feel like I’m learning well … thank u very much Ronnie you r amazingggggg
in Arabic it’s habibi “حبيبي” for ur boyfriend and habibti “حبيبتي” for ur girlfriend
You’re very good and funny I couldn’t stop laughing ♥️?
Dear Ronnie, thanks a lot. I learned a lot of endearment name from this lesson. And I use them immediately on my kids, hottie、sweetpie, and so on.” you are pet.” “Mommy, I’m not your pet, I’m your baby.” We are not Scottish, we are Chinese. Sometimes, we use piggie、meat with my children which means they are part of my body, if they fell hurt, my body will fell hurt too.
messed up almost all of them =[
I got 9 out of 10. Thanks sweetheart.?
Ronnie’s videos are good and learning,i passed my exams.

hi Ronnie . i was watching jwoww and snooki on MTV and i remember roger calling jwoww “monkey” ! did i hear it right ? i mean did he really call his girlfriend monkey ???is it common to say it to boyfriend/girlfriend that or not?>?
Thank you, Professor,
I find it difficult to pronounce letters, and that’s because most of our studies are taught in French,
I hope you can help us with some videos on how to learn good pronunciation,
Thank you
I didn’t understand the part why do they like in MEXICO to callmpeople fat or G
I didn’t understand the part why do they like in MEXICO to callmpeople fat or G
I didn’t understand why do they like calling people

In france, we like to say: “mon coeur” = my heart, “chéri(e)” = darling, “mon ange” = my angel, or “bébé” = babe…
Thank U, awesome🐰🐻🐇
