Dear Lucy, maybe i'm wrong...please make me right if i'm making some mistake, but, when it come to single words, this and these have different sounds. but, in quick conversation is almost impossible realize this difference because the two words become equal sounds. so, i think that i realize the difference by contexct.. but this, that , these and those are very confusing for us from Brazil. this/esse, essa, isso, este, esta, isto these/esses, essas, estes, estas that/ este, esta, esse, essa, isso,isto, aquele, aquela, aquilo, que (que is a conjunction) those/ estes, estas, esses, essas, iaqueles, aquelas, believe it, we get ten words for that.
kronos trinta Instead of "make me right" you could say "correct me". Also, no. You hear the difference in even fast conversations. It's still this little "i/e" sound where you can get the diefference from. I found these papers. I found this paper. Apart from the "-s" after "paper", which is a help for plural and singular, the "e" sound in "these" is a very deep, long "e" sound. Like Lucy said in her video, the word "this" is pronounced in a very different way and the "e" sound here, [Which is spelled through the "i" here], is shorter and sometimes it sounds as if there is not much attention paid to this sound. Sorry, I hoped I could help!
yeah..actually i almost never watch british videos. but in american conversation is really hard realize this difference. the two sounds seem equal. and that sounds like dzet but sometimes the t souds like d.. it's very crazy
Here's how I learnen these 4 words: this - point the finger on your nose that - turn the finger away (as if showing someonene's nose) these - point the finger on your eyes those - turn your fingers away (as if showing someone's eyes) That was very useful before, but now I don't use this method, because I know when do I say "these" and so on (brings a tear to my eye☺)
Lucy, I'm Englísh so not a foreigner student but I really enjoy your videos, brushing up on my knowledge etc. etc. This video reminded me of why and how we use this, that, these and those, I'm so relieved I get it right without remembering WHY!! 🤔 You're fun and such a good teacher, thank you.
Season .Appreciation said "I'm English" so this person is almost certainly from England, which is one of the three kingdoms on the island of Great Britain. So yes, I would say they are both British. Also, Season .Apperciation draws a dichotomy between people who speak English and "foreigners", which is not how it is normally conceptualized in the US. In the US, foreign people very often speak English (if they are from England or Australia or Scotland), foreign people are simply not from the US. I am English by descent (my ancestors were in England about 100 years ago), and I speak English, but I wouldn't say "I'm English so not a foreigner". If I went to England, I would be a foreigner in England, although I do have family there. I am their American family, visiting from abroad. I am not English when I am in England. But in the US, if someone asks where is my family from, I can say "my family is English" or even "I am English", but I am not a foreigner in the US because I was born here and I am a US citizen. My father was not born here, he is a citizen now, and he used to be a foreigner. He will always be an immigrant, but I think he's not a foreigner anymore. It's kind of funny if I am with UK family and they speak before I speak, because my hair and eyes match perfectly, I am obviously related. My last name matches and also is a very strongly English last name (not even Scottish or Welsh, it is from England specifically). Then I open my mouth and I'm American. Boom, surprise.
1) This is one the most useful videos I've watched 2) Those commenters are impolite 3) That city, you've been to, is really unusual 4) These are simple enough sentences
THIS Lucy is amazing! THESE explanations she gave us certainly made THOSE difficult words so much clearer! THAT's what I call a job well done! 😆 Glad to have you back, Lucy, feeling well and ready to teach!
I agree, this Lucy is amazing. This Lucy is the best Lucy. That other Lucy had a lot of problems, mostly because there was not enough context to identify that Lucy.
Thank you very much, Lucy! ❤ Here are my sentences as follows: 1. This tastes good. 2. Hey! Look at that! 3. Do you like these? 4. Those were the days.
Hi, Rezza, I don't see you anymore on Mark's channel. I saw your comment here a couple of months ago, and that's it ...! What's going on with you? Peter, Croatia
Are you Romanian? Don't toy with my emotions. I always see RUclips comments starting with "eu" and I think "nice!"... then I keep reading and it's Portuguese. It's a great way to get repeatedly disappointed. (I'm fairly certain you're Romanian, though. *Grozaaav!* Be well, my friend.)
That will never happen to me! This place is special for my mom. Tonight I am going to wear these shoes. I didn’t like those people,but now they seem agreeable. Hey Lucy, I hope my examples aren’t totally wrong.Please,upload some new videos because they are very helpful to foreign learners. Hugs from Germany❤️
Thank you Lucy for a wonderful lesson👍! Here are my 4 examples. This was a great video. I liked that lovely lipstick you wore. These are my four sentences. Hello to those of you who got as far as to read all the four of them 😁
1. This is a good lesson explained by an excellent teacher. 2. Are these books yours? 3. That movie we watched last week won a prize in Canne Film Festival. 4. I will never forget those days I spent in UK during 2007 summer vacation.
Hello Lucy! I was actually waiting for your video to come up! I really like your English and I hope I learn to speak English as fluently as you do. Love you so much!
It's awesome.Teacher Lucy is teaching very well. In the video, I can learn the grammer, such as that this these those. Thank you teaches to tell the confuse problem.
Wow! What a Great video, I miss you a lot Lucy, I hope that you're having nice time 😍 Much love from Egypt, I've an English test next month in my college and you're helping me with your amazing technique 💚 And Ramadan Kareem to all Muslims 🌼
recommendation: I would love to see a video about phone calls or email communication. Expecially, how to be polite, how to request documents or information politely (I admit, I need it for my job - office, accounting, invoices,...). For example my colleague told me, that when I send an email "could you please explain why..." I am suggesting that they have done something wrong and that I am being rude. Is that true? Why? How to say it better? Or could you explain more about "culture" in phone calls? British people are always asking "how are you?" even when they have never met me, or sometimes they do not wait for an aswer and continue - is this your way how to say "hello"? why are you asking when you do not want to know the answer? :D Or British people often reply to my email "thank you for your email" - even when I am informing them about something unpleasant.
And, can you please make a little lesson about words ending in "ts"? For example the most bitish people say "Whas your name" instead of pronouncing also the "t", "What's your name?". Thank you for reading!❤
A glottal stop is a type of consonantal sound used in many spoken languages, produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract or, more precisely, the glottis. the symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨ʔ⟩. Using IPA, this sound is known as a glottal plosive, isn't it?
hello Lucy! i'm from Brazil I did start study english few months ago, so, if i wrong something i'm sorry 😊 i know THIS video is very old but helped me a lot, these days ago i watched very much your videos for improve my conversation, vocabulary and other things, thank you btw

This video was really helpful 😊 Thank you for making these videos 😀 That shirt you were wearing was really pretty ❤ And I really love those nails 😍😍 Also please correct me if I am wrong Lucy 😅
"Hair Lucy I'm Ria from Indonesia. Now, I still English Course and thanks for beautiful lessons about : This, That, These, Those!

There is a girl, whose name is Lucy. Even I don’t know her, I think she is funny. Is she a weird girl? I don’t think so. She just lives her life like “Enjoy and have fun today, it doesn’t matter what is gonna be tomorrow.” You can see only smile on her beautiful face. She is never in sorrow, she is the brightest star in the universe. Is she a little crazy? I don’t know, maybe. But I can see in eyes that she has a pure soul, and she is a girl who always has a goal.
Thank you very much for the video, it has helped me a lot. As you requested, I'll write 4 sentences: -THIS video is very helpful; -I introduce my both cars to my friend. When opening the garage door, I say "Look at THESE cars, beautiful, right?"; -I remember in 2011, I had several awesome trips. For ex., I went to Japan THAT summer; -I'm visiting my friend who lives close to the airport. I'm chatting with him in the garden. I say "THOSE planes are noisy". Please, tell me if that's correct? Thank you so much!
THIS was the best grammar video ever THAT really gave me lots of useful information. I'll bear THESE in mind. I have also watched THOSE videos that u have uploaded.
"Ah, Seville! That's my favourite place! " . I'm so glad you love Seville! :D Keep on with the good work, Lucy. I really enjoy your videos and, especially, your pronunciation !
Dear Lucy, you please do make a video on vocabulary used in classroom, words and phrases which a teacher can use while communicating with the students in daily life.
Hi Lucy, I have been learning English since I was a kid. I had never learnt those demonstratives in such a great detail until I watched your video. You teach English in a way that is easy to understand. Thank you.
Yes sister maybe I am enjoyable for your grammar section and I am get into a lot of grammar information towords of speaking English by other thank you for your whole creating videos and I will be waiting for more video in your blog. keep it up and continue for long journey in blog.
These explanations are great! I get new information by watching your video. Thank you so much for making such a great channel! please make another video about how to end an email in polite way for professional, friend, and others and how to distinguish them waiting for the next video!
This was a lie! My previous flatmate once invited me to a concert. I thought it was going to be a nice indie band so I out on a floral dress and curled my hair and wore pink lipstick. When we arrived, I realised that it was a heavy metal band. I had the BEST NIGHT EVER....But I looked ridiculous 😂
Btw, im applying for a job and ofc there gonna be a interview and im kinda worried that my tongue may slip or i curse my accident as im used to it, and thats not professional, right? haha. you got any tips for me?
Hi Lucy!! I love your videos and I think you are really good at teaching English. Your videos are helping me to improve my pronunciation and my vocabulary. I have seen most of your videos and I would like to ask you if you could please make a video (or videos) talking about the ways of talking, seeing, seizing and walking. There are so many ways of doing these things and some of them are difficult to differentiate. For example I have a HUGE problem with peep and peer. I hope you could help me with this. Amo tus videos, no solo porque aprendo sino también porque me divierte verlos. Varias veces me dormí tarde por ver tus videos. Creo que lo que vos haces es una de las mejores maneras de enseñar otro idioma. Estoy en mí primer año de traductor público de inglés y la carrera es mucho más estresante y difícil de lo que creía. Sin embargo tus videos me recuerdan lo mucho que amo el inglés y el español y me dan ganas de seguir estudiando. Mucha suerte en todo. Por favor, no dejes de hacer lo que estás haciendo. You are really good at it and it seams you love it 😁💕
Hey Lucy! I really like & appreciate the kind of work that you do. U r making people learn & there is no act more noble than that... So keep up the good work... Hey I also have a request. Can u please make a video about punctuation marks? Please include semicolon, colon, comma, hyphen(-) & dash (-) in video. And also a video about singular they.. IN THE HOPE OF AN EARLY AND POSITIVE RESPONSE FROM UR SIDE!!!
Hello, I'm Brazilian and I wanted to ask for advice on where to start studying and practicing English from England, since I'm from northeastern Brazil and here we do not pull both "r" and "t", because of that I identified more with English of England, plus the comprehension of each syllable within a sentence being easier to understand. In my opinion. Your accent is beautiful.
This is my favourite movie. We will go to Ha Noi next month. I love that. I don't want want to mention about these girls. Those houses in your village are so beautiful.
Hi Lucy, Please make a lesson about the usage of ONLY. I would like to have a clarity about the usage of ONLY, because it gives a different meaning based on the positions.
Hello and greeting for my one and only best english teacher ever. This lesson of yours is one of my best video. I'm always waiting for these lovely lessons of yours almost everyday. I love those beautiful eyes of yours Lucy. That ending kiss of yours has blown my mind away. And one last thing but not in the homework , I'm in love with you Lucy. Thank you very very much .
Hey Lucy, i have a video request for you: can you do an example video of long and short vowel sounds in British English? and can you explain how long a person is supposed to hold a long vowel sound when they are pronouncing a word that has one in it?
"This" and "these" actually have different vowels, it is not just the length. (This is true in the standard British English accent and also in the General American accent.) "This" has a more back vowel. "These" has a more front vowel. Here is a minimal pair with each vowel: *Bit* versus *beat*. The "back" versus "front" refers to the place of articulation, which has to do with where the tongue is. In theory, long versus short vowels will not change the meaning and it doesn't matter how long you make it. In practice, Lucy's advice was very good for native Spanish speakers, because Spanish has a vowel very similar to "these" (and "beat") but Spanish lacks the vowel in "this" (and "bit"). Coming from Spanish, you can make yourself understood if you emphasize that "these" has a long vowel and "this" has a short vowel, even if the two words are using the same tongue shape. A native English speaker can make both words unambigous with both long and short vowel sounds. My advice would be: "Make *these* sound as long as it needs to sound for people to understand what you are saying." With practice, it may get shorter and shorter as the vowel sound gets articulated better. Unfortunately, when talking about how English spelling maps to English sounds, the words "long vowel" and "short vowel" have a totally different meaning. I advise never, ever paying attention to this meaning, it is confusing. (I will give an example so you can recognize the meaning that is confusing: Some spelling teachers will say that "fat" has a "short A" and "fate" has a "long A, due to the silent E". I think this terminology is misleading unless you are a native English speaker who primarily has trouble spelling correctly. In phonetic terminology, "fate" has a diphthong, so it is two vowel sounds side-by-side, and "fat" has just one vowel sound and it is different than both of the vowel sounds in "fate". I don't have the IPA memorized, but here is a gloss of each in enPR: "fat" /fat/ versus "fate" /feit/. Neither word has a long vowel. Also, there is no such thing as a "silent E", there are only English words and broken rules. So many broken rules, too many to count. "Silent E" implies that the written letter E corresponds to a spoken sound, but it doesn't. Not in English. The E at the end of "horrible" is only there because somebody thought "horribl" doesn't have enough vowels. Guess what? The /l/ phoneme in the third syllable is actually the third vowel, or it's as close as that syllable is ever going to get. Adding an E is just a lie. To be more accurate, nobody added the E to the spelling. The original Latin suffix is -ibilis or -ibile and it's just been dropping letters and sounds as the centuries passed. Spanish did something very sensible and removed letters and sounds at the same time. English couldn't be bothered, and removed the sounds and letters haphazardly at different times. French also likes to remove sounds but leave behind the letters.)
I have never really liked how British English sounds. It's been a bit much for my ears...but now, You might be the reason i start to think otherwise. You're gorgeous!
Hello Lucy, I really like the way you teach english and from the day I found out your channel I improved with my listening and speaking skills at first and also (of course) grammar and vocabulary. I “bloody” thank you for all the effort you’re making to make the english language in everyone’s hands. The sole suggestion or even recommendation is to do a video concerning funerals and all the things relating to it such as the place we put the dead and also if you can make place for phrasal verbs in it I really appreciate your work. (A “colossal”(if it is correct)thank you Lucy) 🌹
Thank you for your video I learned new knowledge about: this, that, these, those. Especially was very interesting to learn about emotional issue. That, that is using with negative emotions. This cat is very big That tree is very old Those cars are very old These people are very kind
This is cool! That panting over there on the wall is incredible! Those cows on the mountains are cute ever. These writings you see here have just done.
Lucy thank you for sharing this useful video that is really helpful those words are quite important in everyday English. Again thank you for sharing this Have a nice day Student from Taiwan 😃
Lucy, when I heard the topic of the lesson, the first idea that occurred in my mind what Lucy may say about the issue. It was the best lesson on determines / this, these, that, those I have ever heard. How did you manag to prepare it? It was fascinating, amazing. Great staff. Perfect lesson. Many thanks, Lucy.
I just can't stop loving your accent! I've never loved a British accent as much as yours (maybe just the Queen's) maybe because your pronunciation is so clear. Your English lessons have always been very useful for me, especially the ones about phonetic and pronunciation (last year I made a specific course about English phonetic at my foreign languages University in Florence). Regards from Italy!
1. Now, this is an interesting question! 2. That sounds like a plan! 3. I think I'd go for these two! I've always liked them! 4. I don't wanna have anything to do with those people!
Help others and have you name displayed under the video by contributing subtitle translations here: bit.ly/THISTHATTHESETHOSE
Dear Lucy, maybe i'm wrong...please make me right if i'm making some mistake, but, when it come to single words, this and these have different sounds. but, in quick conversation is almost impossible realize this difference because the two words become equal sounds. so, i think that i realize the difference by contexct.. but this, that , these and those are very confusing for us from Brazil.
this/esse, essa, isso, este, esta, isto
these/esses, essas, estes, estas
that/ este, esta, esse, essa, isso,isto, aquele, aquela, aquilo, que (que is a conjunction)
those/ estes, estas, esses, essas, iaqueles, aquelas,
believe it, we get ten words for that.
kronos trinta Instead of "make me right" you could say "correct me". Also, no. You hear the difference in even fast conversations. It's still this little "i/e" sound where you can get the diefference from.
I found these papers.
I found this paper.
Apart from the "-s" after "paper", which is a help for plural and singular, the "e" sound in "these" is a very deep, long "e" sound. Like Lucy said in her video, the word "this" is pronounced in a very different way and the "e" sound here, [Which is spelled through the "i" here], is shorter and sometimes it sounds as if there is not much attention paid to this sound.
Sorry, I hoped I could help!
How do we prounence them in sqeezed way?Like "Think that they"
yeah..actually i almost never watch british videos. but in american conversation is really hard realize this difference. the two sounds seem equal. and that sounds like dzet but sometimes the t souds like d.. it's very crazy
Hello Lucy Can you make video about Future Tenses please? And If you can about passive voice tenses
Here's how I learnen these 4 words:
this - point the finger on your nose
that - turn the finger away (as if showing someonene's nose)
these - point the finger on your eyes
those - turn your fingers away (as if showing someone's eyes)
That was very useful before, but now I don't use this method, because I know when do I say "these" and so on (brings a tear to my eye☺)
This is a common basic doubt about English, and I´ve never seen a video soooo gooood on that subject! Thanks Lucy! You have a lovely British accent. 😍
My cute smart British teacher is back 😙😙😙
Please make a video about the deference between past perfect 😢, past simple😰 and past perfect continues😥
Difference*
"just a subtle hint..." hahaha, I loved THAT part!
Now We know, he understood. :)
Lucy, I'm Englísh so not a foreigner student but I really enjoy your videos, brushing up on my knowledge etc. etc. This video reminded me of why and how we use this, that, these and those, I'm so relieved I get it right without remembering WHY!! 🤔
You're fun and such a good teacher, thank you.
So both Lucy and Season .Appreciation are native speakers of English. Both of you are Brits, aren't you?
Season .Appreciation said "I'm English" so this person is almost certainly from England, which is one of the three kingdoms on the island of Great Britain. So yes, I would say they are both British.

1) This is one the most useful videos I've watched
2) Those commenters are impolite
3) That city, you've been to, is really unusual
4) These are simple enough sentences
THIS Lucy is amazing! THESE explanations she gave us certainly made THOSE difficult words so much clearer! THAT's what I call a job well done! 😆
Glad to have you back, Lucy, feeling well and ready to teach!
I love this!!!
I agree, this Lucy is amazing. This Lucy is the best Lucy. That other Lucy had a lot of problems, mostly because there was not enough context to identify that Lucy.
Thank you very much, Lucy! ❤
Here are my sentences as follows:
1. This tastes good.
2. Hey! Look at that!
3. Do you like these?
4. Those were the days.
Hi, Rezza, I don't see you anymore on Mark's channel. I saw your comment here a couple of months ago, and that's it ...! What's going on with you? Peter, Croatia
I asked myself:"what to do if i feel sad" and i answered to me:"look to English with Lucy,she has just posted", i did so well i heard myself
Are you Romanian? Don't toy with my emotions. I always see RUclips comments starting with "eu" and I think "nice!"... then I keep reading and it's Portuguese. It's a great way to get repeatedly disappointed. (I'm fairly certain you're Romanian, though. *Grozaaav!* Be well, my friend.)
That will never happen to me!
This place is special for my mom.
Tonight I am going to wear these shoes.
I didn’t like those people,but now they seem agreeable.
Hey Lucy,
I hope my examples aren’t totally wrong.Please,upload some new videos because they are very helpful to foreign learners.
Hugs from Germany❤️
Well,THAT was an amazing video .. I am so glad that I could finally identify the difference between THESE four words !!😄😄
I've been looking for ages for the "emotional distance". THANK YOU!!!
Thank you Lucy for a wonderful lesson👍! Here are my 4 examples. This was a great video. I liked that lovely lipstick you wore. These are my four sentences. Hello to those of you who got as far as to read all the four of them 😁
1. This is a good lesson explained by an excellent teacher.
2. Are these books yours?
3. That movie we watched last week won a prize in Canne Film Festival.
4. I will never forget those days I spent in UK during 2007 summer vacation.
Hello Lucy! I was actually waiting for your video to come up! I really like your English and I hope I learn to speak English as fluently as you do. Love you so much!

Hii
Iza BELKA thank u Iza, 😍😋😊
you are the best teacher Lucy and you have explained this lesson very smoothly and I found it very easy when I learned from you
recommendation: I would love to see a video about phone calls or email communication. Expecially, how to be polite, how to request documents or information politely (I admit, I need it for my job - office, accounting, invoices,...). For example my colleague told me, that when I send an email "could you please explain why..." I am suggesting that they have done something wrong and that I am being rude. Is that true? Why? How to say it better? Or could you explain more about "culture" in phone calls?

Now that is a great idea :D
I just love her british accent 💓💓💓💓

And, can you please make a little lesson about words ending in "ts"? For example the most bitish people say "Whas your name" instead of pronouncing also the "t", "What's your name?". Thank you for reading!❤
Ooooooo this is called a glottal stop! I think Papa teach me has a fabulous video on his channel!!!
A glottal stop is a type of consonantal sound used in many spoken languages, produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract or, more precisely, the glottis. the symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨ʔ⟩. Using IPA, this sound is known as a glottal plosive, isn't it?
Yes
It sounds more british if used correctly .
That's so true! It sounds more British if it is used or pronounced correctly

There is a girl,
whose name is Lucy.
Even I don’t know her,
I think she is funny.
Is she a weird girl?
I don’t think so.
She just lives her life like
“Enjoy and have fun today, it doesn’t matter what is gonna be tomorrow.”
You can see only smile on her beautiful face. She is never in sorrow, she is the brightest star in the universe.
Is she a little crazy?
I don’t know, maybe.
But I can see in eyes that she
has a pure soul, and she is a girl who always has a goal.
Hej, Nikola, good job, and she said nothing about this - piece of art. Pozdrav, Petar , Croatia
Thank you very much for the video, it has helped me a lot. As you requested, I'll write 4 sentences:
-THIS video is very helpful;
-I introduce my both cars to my friend. When opening the garage door, I say "Look at THESE cars, beautiful, right?";
-I remember in 2011, I had several awesome trips. For ex., I went to Japan THAT summer;
-I'm visiting my friend who lives close to the airport. I'm chatting with him in the garden. I say "THOSE planes are noisy".
Please, tell me if that's correct? Thank you so much!

Why not " i love heavy metal" ?
This was a lie! My previous flatmate once invited me to a concert. I thought it was going to be a nice indie band so I out on a floral dress and curled my hair and wore pink lipstick. When we arrived, I realised that it was a heavy metal band. I had the BEST NIGHT EVER....But I looked ridiculous 😂
English with Lucy hell yeah that's my girl!😂
Btw, im applying for a job and ofc there gonna be a interview and im kinda worried that my tongue may slip or i curse my accident as im used to it, and thats not professional, right? haha.
you got any tips for me?
English with Lucy i'm glad you enjoyed heavy metal music 👍👍 heavy metal was invented in the UK actually 😆🤘
Hi Lucy!! I love your videos and I think you are really good at teaching English. Your videos are helping me to improve my pronunciation and my vocabulary.
I have seen most of your videos and I would like to ask you if you could please make a video (or videos) talking about the ways of talking, seeing, seizing and walking. There are so many ways of doing these things and some of them are difficult to differentiate. For example I have a HUGE problem with peep and peer. I hope you could help me with this.
Amo tus videos, no solo porque aprendo sino también porque me divierte verlos. Varias veces me dormí tarde por ver tus videos. Creo que lo que vos haces es una de las mejores maneras de enseñar otro idioma.
Estoy en mí primer año de traductor público de inglés y la carrera es mucho más estresante y difícil de lo que creía. Sin embargo tus videos me recuerdan lo mucho que amo el inglés y el español y me dan ganas de seguir estudiando.
Mucha suerte en todo. Por favor, no dejes de hacer lo que estás haciendo. You are really good at it and it seams you love it 😁💕
English is so hard.:(
Nope. No. Nay.
I don't think so.
English is so easy.
It's a piece of cake.
It's so easy, innit?
Yes, it is.
It isn’t that hard just keep trying it’ll get better, I swear
Kdnxn Hdhdbfn can you give me numbers or nick Facebook or any social media. I can text with you every day. And You can teach me English. Please
That's absolutely right. Russian is much harder than English.

The vids help me a lot thank ( im Dutch and english is not my best part )
Thank you, I have learned many uses of That and this.
Hello, I'm Brazilian and I wanted to ask for advice on where to start studying and practicing English from England, since I'm from northeastern Brazil and here we do not pull both "r" and "t", because of that I identified more with English of England, plus the comprehension of each syllable within a sentence being easier to understand. In my opinion. Your accent is beautiful.
This is my favourite movie.
We will go to Ha Noi next month. I love that.
I don't want want to mention about these girls.
Those houses in your village are so beautiful.
Welcome back Lucy it's a pleasure to watch your videos
You are amazing teacher
Have a nice weekend
Lucy teacher um.. I want to say um.... I have no words for your praise
This video is meaningful.
Have you watch the video that Lucy uploaded yesterday?
These are my classmates. Those days in high school were so happy.
Finally I found you lucy, and now i have the better way to learn english quickly
If conditional we need a video about it please💞💞💞💞
Hi Lucy,
Please make a lesson about the usage of ONLY.
I would like to have a clarity about the usage of ONLY, because it gives a different meaning based on the positions.
Thanks i have learnt many things from your video; also i am able to pronounce those worlds perfectly
Hello and greeting for my one and only best english teacher ever.
This lesson of yours is one of my best video.
I'm always waiting for these lovely lessons of yours almost everyday.
I love those beautiful eyes of yours Lucy.
That ending kiss of yours has blown my mind away.
And one last thing but not in the homework , I'm in love with you Lucy.
Thank you very very much .
Hey Lucy, i have a video request for you: can you do an example video of long and short vowel sounds in British English? and can you explain how long a person is supposed to hold a long vowel sound when they are pronouncing a word that has one in it?
"This" and "these" actually have different vowels, it is not just the length. (This is true in the standard British English accent and also in the General American accent.) "This" has a more back vowel. "These" has a more front vowel. Here is a minimal pair with each vowel: *Bit* versus *beat*. The "back" versus "front" refers to the place of articulation, which has to do with where the tongue is. In theory, long versus short vowels will not change the meaning and it doesn't matter how long you make it.
In practice, Lucy's advice was very good for native Spanish speakers, because Spanish has a vowel very similar to "these" (and "beat") but Spanish lacks the vowel in "this" (and "bit"). Coming from Spanish, you can make yourself understood if you emphasize that "these" has a long vowel and "this" has a short vowel, even if the two words are using the same tongue shape. A native English speaker can make both words unambigous with both long and short vowel sounds.
My advice would be: "Make *these* sound as long as it needs to sound for people to understand what you are saying." With practice, it may get shorter and shorter as the vowel sound gets articulated better.
Unfortunately, when talking about how English spelling maps to English sounds, the words "long vowel" and "short vowel" have a totally different meaning. I advise never, ever paying attention to this meaning, it is confusing. (I will give an example so you can recognize the meaning that is confusing: Some spelling teachers will say that "fat" has a "short A" and "fate" has a "long A, due to the silent E". I think this terminology is misleading unless you are a native English speaker who primarily has trouble spelling correctly. In phonetic terminology, "fate" has a diphthong, so it is two vowel sounds side-by-side, and "fat" has just one vowel sound and it is different than both of the vowel sounds in "fate". I don't have the IPA memorized, but here is a gloss of each in enPR: "fat" /fat/ versus "fate" /feit/. Neither word has a long vowel. Also, there is no such thing as a "silent E", there are only English words and broken rules. So many broken rules, too many to count. "Silent E" implies that the written letter E corresponds to a spoken sound, but it doesn't. Not in English. The E at the end of "horrible" is only there because somebody thought "horribl" doesn't have enough vowels. Guess what? The /l/ phoneme in the third syllable is actually the third vowel, or it's as close as that syllable is ever going to get. Adding an E is just a lie. To be more accurate, nobody added the E to the spelling. The original Latin suffix is -ibilis or -ibile and it's just been dropping letters and sounds as the centuries passed. Spanish did something very sensible and removed letters and sounds at the same time. English couldn't be bothered, and removed the sounds and letters haphazardly at different times. French also likes to remove sounds but leave behind the letters.)
Every lesson coming from you is beautifully clear and perfect. My regards.
What a compliment! Thank you Danilo!
I am very satisfied with this lesson! Thanks a lot
I have never really liked how British English sounds. It's been a bit much for my ears...but now, You might be the reason i start to think otherwise. You're gorgeous!
Hello Lucy,
I really like the way you teach english and from the day I found out your channel I improved with my listening and speaking skills at first and also (of course) grammar and vocabulary.
I “bloody” thank you for all the effort you’re making to make the english language in everyone’s hands. The sole suggestion or even recommendation is to do a video concerning funerals and all the things relating to it such as the place we put the dead and also if you can make place for phrasal verbs in it
I really appreciate your work. (A “colossal”(if it is correct)thank you Lucy) 🌹
Nice lesson! It's the best that I have found on this issue so far.
Lucy! That's so nice to see you again.. Sorry! I couldn't post any edited photos as I'm now living in Bedfordshire taking care of my Nan.

Lucy, when I heard the topic of the lesson, the first idea that occurred in my mind what Lucy may say about the issue. It was the best lesson on determines / this, these, that, those I have ever heard. How did you manag to prepare it? It was fascinating, amazing. Great staff. Perfect lesson. Many thanks, Lucy.
I just can't stop loving your accent! I've never loved a British accent as much as yours (maybe just the Queen's) maybe because your pronunciation is so clear. Your English lessons have always been very useful for me, especially the ones about phonetic and pronunciation (last year I made a specific course about English phonetic at my foreign languages University in Florence). Regards from Italy!
Sofia Guerrieri hi would you like to practice english each other? It could be fun
