Thanks for checking out the lesson, everyone! Leave your questions and comments below. If you’re wondering which song I’m (badly) singing at the start of this video, it’s “Should I Stay or Should I Go” by The Clash: ruclips.net/video/BN1WwnEDWAM/видео.html
i know Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a way to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me
Hi, Alex. Please, comment on point III (Expectations). It seems that you meant Failed expectations... Did I guess it? And thank you so much for your lessons - really very practical, systemized and clear.
Here's a fifth way of using "should" - the so called "emotional should": I am glad you should have mentioned that. I don't understand why she should want to go there. Here's a sixth way of using "should". "Should" is used in conditional phrases where the realization of the action depends on some contingency: In case you should need more information, feel free to contact me.|| Should you need more information, feel free to contact me. Here's a seventh way of using "should" in British English, which is called the Subjunctive Mood: I insist that he should do it.
You are really fantastic teacher!!! I love you so much!!! You explain such complex things and rules and everything becomes clear!!!!!Thank you so much the best ALEX!!!! I'm so glad I found you.
Hi Alex, thank you for the lessons, they are very useful and easy to understand and quite short to find time for watching them! Your lessons help to systematise and set in order all grammar rules. And you make it easy!!! Thank you!!!
Hi Alex! As always your lessons are excellent but I have a request regarding making series of writing topics for beginners. I really suck at this subject and I'm sure you're the only one who can help me with this because your explanation is clear and easy to get! Thanks for the amazing job your doing:-)
Hello sir, In this lesson,,, " I should have it done by tomorrow ." ( should have+ p.p)- (why didn't you use "yesterday "??? Is it past advice? (Rules- ii) Then why you use tomorrow? Or, if it passive ( should have + been)??? Please reply sir.... (Watching from bangladesh)))
hi there from Uzbekistan I'm wondering u are familiar to others teachers from envid.com personally? if i'm not mistaken u are all from Canada, i mean is there any place where u gather all together drink something) and discussing your plans for future for instance)
Hello Alex, Here in Mexico it is already 4:51 am Tuesday and I would like to inform you that I was great to start my day watching this video. I hope everything is all right on your side. Enjoy your day.
my origin language is "Arabic" . we usually studying english by using Arabic language . but , you've an excellent talent of teaching regardless of my language . sometimes i use your body language to understand what you mean . really thank you .
whats the difference between ‘ I would do it for you’ and ‘I will do it for you’ I feel like these two sentences both means that the action will take a place in the future.
You're partly right, but there is still a difference. "I will do it for you" is a promise or a decision made at the moment of speaking. "I would do it for you" is a conditional, which means that maybe you won't or CAN'T do it for them. "I would do it for you, but I'm really busy right now." In this way, it's a present and future statement at the same time. (I would do it now...or...I would do it for you in the near/immediate future...) I hope this helps!
Thanks teacher but l don’t understand something what is difference between he should be there by no and she should have been there at 7 pls reply to me
One question, Sir. When "should" is used in the sense of suggestion or expectation, what role does it play in deciding the tense of the sentence? For example, in the sentence "This should work", what is the tense of the sentence? We know for sure that "This will/would work" is in Future Indefinite, but what about "This should work"? Please answer, Sir.
If you walk from one street corner to another street corner, that is one block. Here: www.weblearning.com.tw/588/gelp3040/images/ilpla_22.gif If Jane walks from her school to drugstore or the bookstore, she will have walked two blocks. I hope this helps!
Some times I receive an email saying at the end: If you should have any question please don't be hazitated to ask. Now here what does it mean and this type of should in which group? Thanks a lot
I already speak English lol it’s my first language, so watching theses videos is kinda fun. What I don’t get though, is that as an English speaker, why should I bother learning another language? Pretty much everyone else in the civilized world speaks English, and trying to use their language when you visit is a pain in the ass. Take for example someone trying to learn Italian, or maybe French or Mandarin. When they visit those countries, and try to speak that language, the locals immediately just start speaking English. It’s quite annoying tbh.
I suppose it depends where you're visiting. I figure it's not always guaranteed that the people you're speaking to will speak English. I can tell you first hand this is the case in Quebec, Canada! I speak 2.2 languages. (the .2 is French :)) I can say that knowing more than one language expands the ways you can view the world. There are phrases and structures that exist in Polish, for example, that simply don't exist in English. The same is true in reverse. Words are also fun to discover. Like "pomme de terre" (apple of the earth), which actually means potato in English. It sounds so much cooler in French! :) Thanks for checking out the videos!
Learn English with Alex [engVid] Thank you for your reply! I think part of my frustration is simply not having enough practice with speaking and listening. Something that I will have to try to seek out on my own. Thanks again :)
I have a ton of phrasal verb lessons on my channel. (here is one: ruclips.net/video/_y0ITptbJTU/видео.html) You can also check out engvid.com and click on phrasal verbs or expressions in the "topics" link.
Use "a couple" when you mean 2. Use "a few" when you mean 3 or 4. Use "some" in a similar way to "a few," but it can be more than 3 or 4 too. I hope this helps a bit!
Sure, if you say "must not have" or "must not have been" and complete the sentences with whatever else you want to say. :) He must not have been listening. They must not have gone to bed early enough.
Hi Alex in a sentence like "This is a bird." The best way to change it into plural is to use "These" of course :These are birds. But Can we use "They" They are birds. Is it okay or not?
It depends on your tone and what you emphasize. If you're angry, it means you expect the person to be able to read the book and don't understand why they can't. You can also make it sound like you're hedging and showing less certainty if you're more gentle with your tone.

@Marshall Aydin Instablaster ;)
"Should" can also be used to replace "if" in conditional sentences, but it's such a formal way of expressing the conditionals.
*My favorite teacher ^^ Greetings from Brazil* 🤘
Greetings from Canada, Eddie! Thanks for your support!

Hello Alex, Here in Mexico it is already 4:51 am Tuesday and I would like to inform you that I was great to start my day watching this video. I hope everything is all right on your side. Enjoy your day.
Good morning! Hope you have a great day. :)
my origin language is "Arabic" . we usually studying english by using Arabic language . but , you've an excellent talent of teaching regardless of my language . sometimes i use your body language to understand what you mean . really thank you .
I try to be a little animated to get the meaning across more. :)
whats the difference between ‘ I would do it for you’ and ‘I will do it for you’ I feel like these two sentences both means that the action will take a place in the future.
You're partly right, but there is still a difference. "I will do it for you" is a promise or a decision made at the moment of speaking. "I would do it for you" is a conditional, which means that maybe you won't or CAN'T do it for them. "I would do it for you, but I'm really busy right now." In this way, it's a present and future statement at the same time. (I would do it now...or...I would do it for you in the near/immediate future...)
I hope this helps!
Thanks you so much, you are awesome , it really helps me a lot

İf I understand what youare saying would ı learn from you.?
Dear teacher I have a question. Which shows more possibility could, should, may or might? Thanks a lot!!
Definitely "should." It means you EXPECT someone or something to be true.
"He should be here already."
"They should have finished by now."
I was missing your lesson. Thank you so much! Alex you sing so well 😄
You should sing often :D
Most people who know me would probably disagree with you. Haha.
I SHOULD practice more the pronunciation of the contraction "should've"... It's still hard for me! Thanks Alex! ❤️
Following this Kenya will thank you so much
👍👍🙏🙏you are great.
You are wonderful.
Hi Alex, I would like to know what it means when you say I don’t think people should care about something.
Sorry by people I meant anyone.
One question, Sir. When "should" is used in the sense of suggestion or expectation, what role does it play in deciding the tense of the sentence? For example, in the sentence "This should work", what is the tense of the sentence? We know for sure that "This will/would work" is in Future Indefinite, but what about "This should work"?

Is it possible to provide me with some information about phrasel verbs.
I have a ton of phrasal verb lessons on my channel. (here is one: ruclips.net/video/_y0ITptbJTU/видео.html) You can also check out engvid.com and click on phrasal verbs or expressions in the "topics" link.
I wish I could have an English Teacher like you in middle school
At least you can still watch me here. :)
I have also heard this that it means few nd some so what should i use?????
Use "a couple" when you mean 2. Use "a few" when you mean 3 or 4. Use "some" in a similar way to "a few," but it can be more than 3 or 4 too. I hope this helps a bit!
Alex, may God bless you.
nice strategy Alex,
Now I understand more how to use it correctly!! Thank you very much
Can we use must have, must have been for negative???
Sure, if you say "must not have" or "must not have been" and complete the sentences with whatever else you want to say. :)
He must not have been listening.
They must not have gone to bed early enough.
Hey bro,
why don't you come to my country(Sri Lanka) and start an English school, I think it might be a very good idea
My life is here in Canada, but I appreciate the idea! :)
@@engvidAlex

Thank you!
This topic is really useful to me. Thank you.
You’re very welcome. I’m glad it was useful. :)
Hi Alex
in a sentence like "This is a bird." The best way to change it into plural is to use "These" of course :These are birds.
But Can we use "They" They are birds. Is it okay or not?
Yes, if you're pointing to a group of birds in the park. "What are those things?" "They're birds!"
u r my favourite.
If I say , "you should be able to read this book" what does it mean? Does it give the sense of, I expect you to be able to read it Or less certainty?
It depends on your tone and what you emphasize. If you're angry, it means you expect the person to be able to read the book and don't understand why they can't. You can also make it sound like you're hedging and showing less certainty if you're more gentle with your tone.
Learn English with Alex [engVid] thank u so much ,act I've been struggling wd ts question for a long time , it's cleared now
you're amazing, greetings from Brazil
Very good lesson!
I like por favor that you used pictures of the each frase thanks
