Dear Professors, I hope you are okay. Thank you for all of your efforts, Professor Martin and Professor Molly. Wish you and your family get lucky during the covid-19 time. Good luck and good day to you! Good bye dear professors! From you student/ Ruby.
16:43 Yes there is. Exercise four, page one, pier eight. One of the basic rules I was taught in my elementary school. All the examples are very easy. I thought I would find something more challenging as I still have problems with articles.
Thank you teacher. It's so hard to catch that you both are explaining. I need a lot of time, repeat this lesson many time to get it. Because I'm in beginner level. 👃👃👃💚💛💜
Thank you so much for the lesson, I'm striving to be fluent in English, i can't deny that I'm dependent on this channel because i can learn many things about English!

Hi team Oxford Online English❤️. In level-4, Q.No-4, 12:51 Is it correct to say? Many cities are planning for a future in which *"electric cars are"* the most popular form of road transport. Plz answer. Thaanks 🙏
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Thank you, I still have many doubts in the articles, especially "THE" confuses me many times when I read a book in English. I always think, why there the article 'The' is used here or why not The here. It's all confusing, how to overcome this issue. 🙏
@10:15 level 3, sentence 5, you pronounced Edinburgh different when it came first in the name vs how you said it when it came at the end of the University's name. Is that so?
"We didn't go teaching to get rich but to enrich others." To all teachers,Happy Teachers Day !!!!💕 Teaching is the most noble profession in the world. It serves as the pillar of our society since it institutes other professions as well. Every 5th day of October, we celebrate World Teachers’ Day-a day where the struggles and hardships of our teachers are appreciated and rewarded. Being a teacher will never be easy because teaching will never be their sole task. Even the things that aren’t listed in their job description, but because of their love and passion, they will never dare to scape. There are times when they will get tired, but after a little rest, they will continue to move on and promote the future of their students.
Glad you liked it! We have some lessons to help you with the present perfect and past perfect. You can find them here: www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/present-perfect-verb-tense, www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/past-perfect-tense.
It's really not easy. I often think when a listener knows what exactly I'm talking about or indicating, I'll use "the" as article. And also sometimes it means a listener would agree with you on something. For example, when your boss asks "did you see the paper on your desk?" He probably means he thinks you've already seen and read it. But if you don't, or if you want to pretend that you've seen it, maybe you could say: "a paper?", rather than "the paper"? I'm not sure if my description is clear enough. It's just my thoughts. Thanks for sharing!
Interesting perspective, Ethan. Yes, this could be something you could say in that context. That's a great example of developing more in-depth understanding of articles with more practice. Thanks for watching!
I clicked on the URL and took the test but wasn't able to see my score for both the levels. The results were being recorded as the green line was approching the end but then it stopped at a point near the end. Maybe it was because my internet connection was poor. Thanks for making the videos 😊
Hi! Thank you! I would like to ask a question about articles. I have seen some people say "on the couch" even though it is not clear which couch is referred to. For example : "I was trying to find Jack in his house and he wasn't there and when I found him, he was sitting on the couch reading a book" Here, it is not clear which sofa Jack was sitting on but people do use "the" with "couch" in this way. But, Why so ? Many Thanks!
Good question. Here, we are assuming that it is the only couch, or the main couch, in the house. Another example is: 'She was sitting on the bed when she heard the news,' or, 'He was in the kitchen when his mother called him.' We use 'the' in these instances where there is only one in the house, and we know which one we're talking about. Hope this is useful for you!
Yes,I think so. If there is a plate full of different types of fruits on it, then you can say that(as in a way of pointing out). Here, you and the other person know which strawberries you are talking about.
Hi Dawar. If you're talking about strawberries in general, use 'I like strawberries.' If you're talking about specific strawberries, for example, strawberries grown in a certain region, you can use 'the.' For example: 'I like the strawberries from the north better than the strawberries from the south.' Hope this helps you!
One of the books I have read says we use 'a/an' for jobs (a teacher, an engineer...) and either 'no article' or 'the' for a unique job position ([the] head of the company). What about the position that is not unique? Which article do we use?
Hi there. Good question. If we say 'of ability' that means this man has ability in general. When we say 'of an ability' that means this man has one particular ability. Hope this helps you!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 if the uncountable noun is specific we must use " THE " am I correct ? and can we also use THE with the word "abitlity " if it is specific ....
He never mastered the ability to run. in this sentences running ability is the specific ability .... am I right ?

Hi! Thank you for this lesson! I have a question about it. Why do people often say "I'm going to the cinema" instead of "a cinema" even though they haven't told us which cinema they are going. There are many cinemas in their city but they would always use "the" when talking about going to the cinema. They haven't told us which cinema but they use "the cinema". Why so ? Thank you in advance!
Hi Omar. Good question. Often times, native speakers will use 'the' because it refers more to the activity rather than the specific location. For example, I could say, 'We're going to the movies later,' which is the same as, 'We're going to the cinema later.' The emphasis is on the activity rather than the location. If the context requires us to refer to a specific location, we would say something like, 'There is a movie theater near my house. Shall we go there?' Hope this helps you!
I got a pain because I dont understand one example Most of the people in my class take the bus to (THE) college. Why we dont use the before college? It`s clear which college, it is singular and countable

Hi Boan. We should not use 'are' and 'is' together in the same sentence. We can either say, 'The Siberian tiger is considered endangered,' or, 'Siberian tigers are considered endangered.' It looks like there was a typo in the video. 'Siberian tigers are is considered endangered,' is incorrect. Hope this helps you!

Like all things with articles, it's not straightforward :) 'Earth' can be used as a name, in which case it follows the rules for names: capital 'E' and no 'the'. E.g. "There are four rocky planets in the solar system: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars." 'Earth' can also be a regular noun, in which case it has a small 'e' and may be used with 'the', because there's only one. E.g. "The earth is the third planet from the sun." I would bet that most native speakers don't follow this consistently, so I personally wouldn't worry about it too much.

Like all things with articles, it's not straightforward :)
'Earth' can be used as a name, in which case it follows the rules for names: capital 'E' and no 'the'.
E.g. "There are four rocky planets in the solar system: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars."
'Earth' can also be a regular noun, in which case it has a small 'e' and may be used with 'the', because there's only one.
E.g. "The earth is the third planet from the sun."
I would bet that most native speakers don't follow this consistently, so I personally wouldn't worry about it too much.
