  1. It's understandable that these words are a common mistake because they both have a similar meaning.1:06
  2. They talk about something or someone that's not interesting, but the difference comes in how we use them grammatically.1:12
  3. The word boring is for something or someone that's not interesting.1:20
  4. That movie was boring.1:24
  5. Ugh, I went on a date with him and he was so boring.1:27
  6. He just talked about sports the whole time.1:32
  7. It's not a compliment, but the word bored refers to the feeling you have when you watch that boring movie or when you go on that boring date, you feel1:34
  8. bored.1:48
  9. So at the beginning of this lesson, when I said, oh man, you look so boring.1:49
  10. Oh no, that's not nice.1:54
  11. It means you're not interesting.1:56
  12. Instead, I should have said, oh man, you look so bored.1:57
  13. It means you're not doing anything fun.2:02
  14. You feel like you need some more fun in your life.2:05
  15. I feel bored.2:08
  16. Let's look at a couple of sample sentences.2:10
  17. This documentary about sand is boring.2:12
  18. I feel so bored.2:16
  19. Can we please watch something else?2:18
  20. I was so bored during that lecture.2:21
  21. To me, physics is just boring.2:25
  22. Sorry, people who like physics.2:27
  23. So now I have a little quiz for you.2:30
  24. I want you to choose is the word boring or bored the best fit for this sentence.2:32
  25. Vanessa's lessons are not.2:38
  26. I never feel.2:42
  27. What's the correct answer here?2:45
  28. I'll give you three seconds.2:47
  29. Three, two, one.2:48
  30. Vanessa's lessons are not boring.2:50
  31. I never feel bored.2:54
  32. Oh, I hope that's true.2:56
  33. Common speaking mistake number two is one that native English speakers make too.2:58
  34. It is well versus good.3:03
  35. Have you ever heard someone say, I don't feel good.3:07
  36. You know what?3:11
  37. That's a mistake.3:12
  38. Instead, it should be I don't feel well.3:13
  39. What's the difference?3:17
  40. Let me tell you.3:18
  41. The word well is an adverb.3:19
  42. That means it adds something to the verb.3:22
  43. So when you say, I don't feel well, well is talking about how you feel.3:25
  44. I don't feel well.3:31
  45. I have a headache.3:32
  46. I have a stomach ache.3:33
  47. I need to go lie down.3:34
  48. If you said I don't feel good, this means that my sense of touch is not good.3:36
  49. Maybe you burned your fingers.3:42
  50. Oh, yeah, I just don't feel good anymore.3:44
  51. It's a very unusual thing to say.3:46
  52. So instead, when you're talking about your health, you can use this correctly and say, I don't feel well.3:48
  53. What about the word good?3:54
  54. Well, the word good is an adjective, so it needs to describe a noun.3:56
  55. You might say, wow, Vanessa, this is a really good lesson.4:01
  56. Good is describing lesson.4:06
  57. Or you could say, I really need a good grade in this class or I'm going to fail.4:08
  58. I do want to tell you of an exception in spoken English.4:13
  59. I mentioned that sometimes native English speakers use this incorrectly, but there is one case when we use it incorrectly and I actually recommend using it like that so you4:17
  60. don't seem to snobby.4:28
  61. Let me tell you about it.4:30
  62. If someone asks you the common greeting question, how are you doing?4:32
  63. And you want to answer with grammatical correctness.4:36
  64. You would need to say, I'm doing well.4:40
  65. And you, but you know what?4:43
  66. If you said this, someone might think, Oh, did you come from the 16th century?4:44
  67. Are you an English professor?4:50
  68. Maybe you are.4:52
  69. But in this case, it's grammatically correct, but it is not commonly used.4:53
  70. And it feels a little bit weird in just daily conversation.4:59
  71. So what should you say instead?5:03
  72. Well, here you have it.5:05
  73. Your English teacher telling you to make a mistake on purpose.5:07
  74. And that is if someone says, how are you doing?5:10
  75. You could say pretty good.5:14
  76. And you good is actually the most common response, even though it's not technically grammatically correct.5:16
  77. Who know, you should make mistakes.5:25
  78. So now it's time for a little test.5:27
  79. Can you choose which word fits in which blank?5:30
  80. Good or well, I need to do on that test because I need a great.5:33
  81. Hmm, I'll give you three seconds.5:42
  82. Three, two, one.5:45
  83. I need to do well on that test because I need a good grade.5:47
  84. Great work.5:54
  85. Common speaking mistake number three is another pair of similar words.5:55
  86. And that is job versus work.5:59
  87. These both mean your career, something that you do generally to make money, but they function differently grammatically in a sentence.6:02
  88. The word work can be both a verb I work or it can be a noun.6:12
  89. My work is as a teacher and the word job can only be a noun.6:19
  90. So let's take a look at a couple sentences.6:25
  91. My job is to manage my team.6:27
  92. This is a noun and it's talking about your career.6:31
  93. My job is to manage my team.6:34
  94. Or you could say, I work on the marketing team.6:37
  95. This is as a verb.6:42
  96. What if we put these together in a sentence?6:43
  97. You could say, I work with a lot of interesting people at my new job.6:46
  98. Ooh, I do want to teach you two things to be careful of with these two phrases.6:52
  99. One is a fixed phrase that you will use often and that is at work.6:57
  100. This is talking about the place where you work.7:03
  101. Where were you at six o 'clock tonight?7:06
  102. We were waiting for you at dinner.7:09
  103. You might say, sorry, I was at work.7:11
  104. I had to do something extra before I left.7:13
  105. Or you could say, I was so busy at work today.7:16
  106. Yes, it's talking about the place, but this is a fixed phrase that you can use to talk about where you were.7:20
  107. I was at work.7:26
  108. I was busy at work today.7:27
  109. Earlier, I mentioned that the word work can be used as a verb or a noun and the word job can be used as a noun.7:30
  110. So can they be used interchangeably at all?7:37
  111. Take a look at this.7:41
  112. You could say, I love my job or you could say, I love my work.7:42
  113. But be careful, there is a nuanced difference between these two.7:47
  114. If you say, I love my job.7:51
  115. Cool.7:53
  116. It just means what you said.7:54
  117. I like what I do to make money.7:56
  118. But when you say, I love my work, this feels like there's a deeper significance to what you do at your job.7:58
  119. For example, maybe you help homeless people to find a home or you're helping people who are in a domestic violence situation get a better life.8:06
  120. You are really changing people's lives kind of with a deeper significance.8:16
  121. So if you say, I love my work, this has the underlying idea that you are changing the world or at least changing someone's world.8:20
  122. It's a very deep feeling.8:30
  123. All right, now it's time for a little test.8:31
  124. Can you choose which blank needs the word job and which blank needs the word work?8:34
  125. For my I need to late hours.8:40
  126. I'll give you three seconds.8:45
  127. For my job, I need to work late hours.8:48
  128. Great work.8:53
  129. The next common speaking mistake are two similar words again, in and at.8:54
  130. Oh my, I receive many questions from English students asking, Vanessa, how can I remember when to use in and when to use at?9:01
  131. Well, let me give you some ideas.9:09
  132. This is tricky because we use both at and in when we're talking about time.9:11
  133. But we use the word at specifically for specific times.9:17
  134. For example, at midnight, at five o 'clock, at noon.9:23
  135. This is at specifically that time.9:28
  136. But the word in is used more generally.9:32
  137. Take a look at this in the morning, in the evening, in five minutes, in six hours.9:36
  138. You didn't say at 3 .30.9:43
  139. He said, no, we'll have a meeting in the morning, in the evening, in five minutes, in six days.9:46
  140. Let's take a look at some sentences.9:55
  141. Can you meet me at noon?9:56
  142. I know that that's only in 30 minutes, but can you make it?10:00
  143. So I'm asking you, hey, I know this is last minute notice, but can you make it?10:05
  144. Can you meet me at noon, this specific time, in the duration of time, in 30 minutes?10:12
  145. Let's take a look at another one.10:19
  146. You're invited to my birthday party.10:20
  147. The party is in 10 days and it starts at seven o 'clock.10:23
  148. Wonderful.10:29
  149. Are you ready for a little test?10:30
  150. I want you to decide which blank needs the word in and which blank needs the word at.10:32
  151. Take a look.10:38
  152. Three days when my vacation starts, I won't need to wake up 6 a .m.10:40
  153. anymore.10:48
  154. I can sleep in.10:49
  155. All right, I'll give you three seconds to decide.10:51
  156. In three days when my vacation starts, I won't need to wake up at 6 a .m.10:55
  157. anymore.11:03
  158. It's so nice on vacation to sleep in.11:04
  159. If you would like to dive deeper into this topic, I made another video comparing in, on, and at, and over half a million people have found clarity with this11:07
  160. video.11:18
  161. You can click on the link up here to watch that in more detail.11:18
  162. Our fifth and final common speaking mistake is to talk with someone or to talk to someone.11:22
  163. I want to show you two sentences and I want you to guess which one is the best.11:30
  164. I'm talking with my friend or I'm talking to my friend.11:35
  165. Which one do you think is better?11:41
  166. I'll give you three seconds.11:43
  167. Let's do our quiz now.11:45
  168. Three, two, one.11:46
  169. Well, you know what?11:48
  170. This is a trick question because both of these are equally acceptable in spoken English conversations.11:49
  171. I have heard that some people say when you use talk to someone, it has the sense that there's an authority.11:57
  172. I'm talking to someone who has less authority than me.12:05
  173. I talked to my employees.12:09
  174. I talked to my child.12:12
  175. But really in daily spoken English in the US, we use both of these phrases interchangeably.12:14
  176. You could say, I talked to my boss about the important meeting next week.12:21
  177. I talked to my child.12:25
  178. I talked to my friend.12:27
  179. Or you could say, I talked with my friend.12:28
  180. I talked with my boss.12:31
  181. You could use these interchangeably in spoken English and it's not a problem.12:33
  182. So if you're one of those English learners that has ever wondered, should I say talk to or talk with?12:38
  183. You know what?12:43
  184. You can just take that concern and throw it out of your brain.12:44
  185. It doesn't matter.12:47
  186. Now that you can avoid those five mistakes in English, I want to help you learn five secrets of American English pronunciation that will help you to speak English like12:48
  187. a native speaker.13:00
  188. Because sometimes we speak clearly and sometimes we link words together.13:01
  189. And native speakers feel like it's such a normal thing to do.13:06
  190. But English learners often struggle understanding this and using it themselves.13:09
  191. So let's practice.13:14
  192. All right.13:16
  193. Are you ready to get started with the first secret of American English pronunciation?13:16
  194. Let's start.13:21
  195. Have you heard this phrase before?13:22
  196. The early bird catches the worm.13:24
  197. This means that if you wake up early or you get started now, well, you will succeed.13:27
  198. Only the birds that wake up early in the morning get the best worms.13:35
  199. If you wait, if you procrastinate, well, too bad for you.13:39
  200. You won't be able to succeed.13:43
  201. But this wonderful phrase uses an important American English pronunciation point.13:45
  202. There are three words, early, bird and worm that use a colored R.13:51
  203. So in American English, this R is a strong, hard sound.14:00
  204. Early bird worm.14:05
  205. Do you see how that's almost like an angry dog?14:09
  206. Worm bird.14:13
  207. Early.14:15
  208. Make sure that when you're using American English pronunciation, this colored R sound is hard.14:16
  209. Phrase number two that uses a key American English pronunciation is this one.14:22
  210. Have you ever heard someone say, your guess is as good as mine?14:27
  211. Your guess is as good as mine.14:31
  212. This means that the other person has no clue.14:33
  213. Maybe you could say, I don't know how to get to the beach.14:37
  214. Your guess is as good as mine.14:42
  215. But there is something important happening with the pronunciation of this phrase.14:44
  216. At the end of the word guess and at the end of the word is there is an S.14:48
  217. But in American English pronunciation, we often link the S with the vowel next to make a Z sound.14:54
  218. So listen carefully when I say this phrase, your guess is as good as mine.15:03
  219. It sounds a lot like this.15:09
  220. And that's what's happening here.15:12
  221. We are linking together the S plus a vowel from the next word.15:13
  222. Try to say it with me.15:19
  223. Your guess is as good as mine.15:20
  224. I have no clue.15:24
  225. Your guess is as good as mine.15:25
  226. Key phrase number three that uses American English pronunciation is this fun one.15:27
  227. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.15:32
  228. Have you ever been trying to help someone and then they complain about how you're helping them?15:35
  229. You can use this phrase and say, hey, don't bite the hand that feeds you.15:40
  230. I'm just trying to help you.15:44
  231. Well, it's the same idea.15:46
  232. If you argue with your boss, if you yell at your boss, he's the one that gives you your paycheck.15:48
  233. So don't bite the hand that feeds you.15:55
  234. But there is important American English pronunciation here that happens three times, don't bite.15:59
  235. And then a little later in the sentence is the word that.16:06
  236. What is similar between all three of these words?16:10
  237. It's the letter T.16:13
  238. Listen when I say this contraction.16:15
  239. Don't don't.16:18
  240. Do you hear don't with that puff of air coming out?16:19
  241. No, in American English, oftentimes a T at the end of words will be cut off.16:24
  242. We call this a stopped T because your mouth is making that shape.16:29
  243. Don't.16:33
  244. My tongue is at the top of my mouth trying to make that T shape.16:34
  245. But there's no puff of air that comes out.16:38
  246. Listen carefully as I say this and I want you to hear that stopped T.16:41
  247. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.16:46
  248. You think you can say that with me?16:51
  249. You can do it.16:53
  250. Let's say this phrase together.16:54
  251. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.16:56
  252. All right, let's go to our next phrase.17:01
  253. Has this ever happened to you before you invite a lot of people over to your house and you think it's going to be a fun party?17:02
  254. It's great.17:09
  255. And then it just becomes so many people in your house, so much chaos.17:10
  256. And you have to say this.17:15
  257. Oh no, I think it's going to get out a hand.17:16
  258. This doesn't mean that anything is really in your hand and it's getting out of your hand.17:21
  259. Instead, this means it's getting out of control.17:26
  260. But this phrase get out a hand uses an important American English pronunciation tip, which is that the T at the end of words, another T tip, that has a17:29
  261. vowel next often changes to a D sound.17:41
  262. So listen when I say this.17:45
  263. The party will get out a hand.17:47
  264. The word get is surrounded by vowels.17:54
  265. There's a vowel on either side, G E T.17:57
  266. And then the next word starts with an O so that T is surrounded by vowels.18:01
  267. And that means that it's going to change to a D sound.18:06
  268. Get out.18:09
  269. And then it's going to happen without and of out.18:11
  270. In fact, the word of changes to just get out a hand.18:15
  271. Can you say it with me?18:21
  272. The party will get out a hand.18:23
  273. The party will get out a hand if you invite 50 people over to your house.18:27
  274. All right, let's go to our last American English pronunciation tip.18:32
  275. Has it ever happened to you that you travel abroad and then you realize that you're just meeting people from your own home country?18:36
  276. It's like you're you're magnetic towards each other.18:43
  277. Well, we could use this phrase birds of a feather flock together.18:47
  278. And this means that common things are attracted to each other for better or for worse.18:52
  279. So there is a key American English pronunciation point we can talk about with this phrase.18:59
  280. We already talked about the word bird and how it uses that colored R, that hard R sound.19:03
  281. Bird.19:09
  282. And there is another R tip in this phrase as well.19:10
  283. Look at the end of the word feather and together.19:14
  284. Here is an E R and it's going to be a strong R sound.19:18
  285. Feather together.19:24
  286. Again, pretend that you are an angry dog and try to make that hard R sound.19:27
  287. Feather together.19:31
  288. Can you say this wonderful idiom with me?19:34
  289. Birds of a feather.19:37
  290. Flock together.19:40
  291. Wonderful.19:42
  292. Now that you've avoided five mistakes, learned five pronunciation tips, now it's time to improve your English vocabulary.19:43
  293. You're going to learn 30 important phrasal verbs with a fun lesson about a picture frame.19:52
  294. All of these phrasal verbs are going to be used to talk about a picture frame so that you can use them in your daily life as well and speak19:59
  295. clearly and confidently.20:07
  296. Let's go.20:08

  299. This is a lot of picture frames.20:17

  301. Oh, I'm going to use this one.20:25
  302. I'm going to look through my pictures to decide which one would be best with this frame.20:28
  303. I'm going to use this one.20:34
  304. Before I put the picture in, I need to brush off the frame.20:36
  305. It's been collecting dust in my closet.20:40
  306. Then I need to clean off the fingerprints.20:43
  307. This has happened to you.20:47
  308. There's always fingerprints on my picture frames.20:48
  309. Next, I'm going to open up the back of the frame.20:52
  310. Oops, the little tab just broke off.20:56
  311. I guess it was kind of a cheap picture frame.20:59
  312. I take off the back of the picture frame and I will now put in my lovely picture and make sure that I put it facing the right way.21:03
  313. Tada.21:13
  314. I'll put the back back on the picture frame and I'll close up the little tabs.21:15
  315. Unfortunately, there's only one tab left.21:21
  316. All of the others broke off such a cheap picture frame, but it'll do.21:24
  317. I could set this picture frame down on the table or maybe just place it on the counter, but I think that I want to hang it up.21:29
  318. I was just about to hang this up on the wall when the back kept coming out.21:37
  319. So I decided that I needed to tape the back on such a cheap picture frame.21:43
  320. But you know what?21:49
  321. That's how it goes sometimes.21:50
  322. And you'll never see it from the front.21:51
  323. To put this picture frame up on the wall, I'm going to need to hammer in a nail.21:54
  324. OK, so here's one extra thing in the video.22:01
  325. Don't blame me.22:04
  326. Don't yell at me.22:06
  327. Yes, it's more than just one picture frame.22:07
  328. I'm going to hammer in the nail.22:10
  329. I could put it on the wall high up and try to keep it away from my children's fingers, but I'm not too worried about it.22:13
  330. I'm going to hammer it in a little bit low down around here.22:23
  331. Looks good.22:32
  332. Now I just need to carefully set my picture frame on the nail.22:33
  333. Looks pretty straight.22:42
  334. I'm sure that when my kids come home from school, they're going to point out, hey, look, mom, there's a new picture on the wall.22:43
  335. And I'll be sure to tell them.22:50
  336. Don't lift it up.22:51
  337. Don't even pick it up.22:52
  338. It's pretty fragile.22:54
  339. In some day, if I don't want this picture here, I'll just take it off the wall.22:55
  340. And you know what?23:02
  341. Unfortunately, this is not a picture frame that I'm going to be passing down through the generations.23:03
  342. It's pretty cheap.23:10
  343. And you know what?23:12
  344. I probably wouldn't even give it away.23:13
  345. I don't think many people want a picture frame that has to have tape on the back to keep the picture in.23:16
  346. Oh, oops.23:24
  347. Now I have to sweep up the pieces.23:26
  348. I'm going to have to dump it out in the trash and tell my kids to watch out for little pieces of glass that might have gone across the room.23:29
  349. All I can do now is throw it away.23:38
  350. And I guess I'll have to look through my pictures again and pick one out.23:41
  351. That's good for the next frame.23:48
  352. Maybe one of these frames will be a little bit more durable and not fall apart like this one.23:50
