      Same with me. I have discovered it recently it is simply amazing. I just can't stop. Especially I'm found of those, where pronunciation is polished. And indeed it proves English is tricky. But it is wonderful in any respect.

    • @SimpleEnglishVideos
      @SimpleEnglishVideos  6 лет назад +1

      So glad you liked it, Ahmed. It turned out to be pretty easy to integrate the verbs. I wrote a long list of them before we started but the conversation was unscripted. We found ten of the verbs fitted in what we wanted to say. A nice round ten - that was a stroke of luck.

    I got hungry during watching your video! OMG! I love Heinz' Baked Beans! *___*
    And Knorr actually is a German company, now belonging to the international Unilever corporation :O
    And you know Vicki? I have been several times to GB up until today. I do love British Flapjacks! You make the best Flapjacks from all around the world! ♥
    I'm so super jealous of your Holland and Barret as well as the Whole Food markets. Paradise for a vegan like me :D There are so many vegan cookies, biscuits and other stuff here in Germany, but Britain is the world's best cookie, flapjack nd biscuit bakery *____* And of course.... British tea ♥
    Once or twice a year I have to order a package from GB ♥

      Oh I adore flapjacks too, Stefanie. I used to buy Tate & Lyle syrup to make them but they're so fattening, we had to stop. Don't get Jay started about Whole Foods. He adores the place. :-)

      Vicki, I've made the exact same experience 😮
      It's slightly irritating that many products contain much more fat or sugar or salt in the USA or in Germany than in the UK or France.
      And yes! I'm totally with Jay when it comes to Whole Foods market. As a vegan it's THE place to be 😋

      Hi JCH. This is Jay writing back to you. Vicki has to import her favorite British treats like pickled onions. We get a big case of food from the UK every year! Thanks for writing to us and thanks for watching our videos.

      Simple English Videos thx a million Jay.
      I discovered your videos a few days ago, and it is a delight.
      It helps me a lot keeping up with my English, after spending a decade in London, in a joyful way.
      And also learning about American English.
      One thing I have considered and never managed to handle properly. The different pronunciations of the (th) sound. Especially after spending time in London where a table cloth becomes a table “cloff”.
      Maybe a subject you might want to discuss in the future.
      Have a nice weekend

    Hello you both!
    What a great preparation for Christmas!
    "Blow up" ...is it the phrasal verb non mentioned in the conversation?
    I saw another one:" pull apart" but I'm not sure it's a phrasal verb.
    Happy Christmas!

    • @SimpleEnglishVideos
      @SimpleEnglishVideos  6 лет назад +3

      Yes! I was thinking of 'to blow up' meaning to explode. Well spotted! And you found another one too, that I hadn't noticed. The Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary list 'pull apart' as a phrasal verb with the meaning ' to separate something into pieces by pulling different parts of it in different directions'. Well done Franciose!

    Hi Vicki and Jay, love to see your videos! I was wondering whether you guys are affected by each other's accents and finally have got some minor changes in your speaking?

    • @SimpleEnglishVideos
      @SimpleEnglishVideos  5 лет назад +2

      Hi Sylvia. Great question! I'm sure we must have been influenced by one another's accents. It's hard for us to say where though because, of course, we're not conscious of it.
      I would expect Jay's accent to have been influenced less and mine more, because we're living in the midst of Americans. Jay claims that when we're in the UK I'm harder to understand for him. I think it might be because I switch back to using a lot of familiar local terms that he's not familiar with when I'm with English friends and family, but maybe some of it is accent.
      I had a meeting once with lots of linguists at Oxford Universatity Press and as the meeting wound up they commented on how British I still sounded despite living in the US. But then someone piped up that I'd used an American phrase here and someone else commented that I'd pronounced something an American way there. Ha! I thought they'd been focused on the discussion at the meeting, but of course, as lingusits they were tracking my speech. They couldn't help themselves! And actually I'd like to know too.

    I had not run into the phrase chopped meat before I moved near Philadelphia. In the Midwest it is 'ground' and then the kind of meat, as in ground beef, or ground turkey.

    • @SimpleEnglishVideos
      @SimpleEnglishVideos  6 лет назад

      Oh interesting. In British English it would usually be simply 'mince' or sometimes 'minced meat' and we would expect that to be beef. Turkey isn't as popular in the UK as it is in the US.

    9:42 Thank you for emphasizing this aspect, that is the tendency of adding a particle to the verb... as if, without particle, the verb were naked! ;o)
    Also, please try to give a "simple" verb corresponding to a phrasal verb. I'm sure there's always one, even forgotten..., like the sleeping princess or the toad waiting for the kiss of deliverance!

    • @SimpleEnglishVideos
      @SimpleEnglishVideos  6 лет назад +1

      Hi Aredas. You're right that often there is a one word verb that corresponds in meaning to a phrasal verb, but not always. For example, there is no one word equivalent to 'run out'. Also, where there is a one word verb, it's generally not a simple substitute for all contexts. Phrasal verbs tend to be less formal and more colloquial. So for example, it would sound a bit awkward to say 'apple pie combines well with ice cream'. 'Apple pie goes well with ice cream' would be more likely.
