    "There is a lot of..." is actually correct. "A lot" is singular. Here, "lot" is a singular noun meaning a group or set of objects. That is why it uses the article "a".
    "There are many..." is plural.

    Hola. Disculpa que te escriba en castellano. Quiero expresarme bien y que con un traductor lo puedas leer en inglés.
    Propuesta:
    En el colegio cuando éramos pequeños la profesora nos leía un texto y nosotros lo escribimos en papel. Después corregimos los errores de escritura de lo que habíamos escrito.
    Por ejemplo un texto acerca de la ciudad. En el video vas pronunciando frase por frase y nos da tiempo a escribir. En la descripción del video añades el texto para que nosotros lo corrugamos.
    En los canales de inglés que veo ninguno tiene esta opción. A ver que te parece.
    If you can do one video about this mode of listening English and waiting the feedback from people for add another one. Thanks for you help.

    @6:41 If we're going to be pedantic then it should be "She is the woman *whom* he married," not "She is the woman *who* he married." If we're going to be correct, let's be correct.

    • @engvidAlex
      @engvidAlex  Год назад

      The use of “whom” has been being phased out of sentences like this one for decades. You’re right, of course, but popular usage eventually becomes the rule. I advise my students to use “whom” correctly in formal writing and speaking, but in everyday situations, most native speakers have no clue when they should use “whom,” so it’s not fair to expect learners to know when to use it either except as a didactic exercise which satisfies curiosity. It would be wonderful if everyone knew how to use it, though!

    If I say my friend and I are going to go to grocery store, is that correct? What if I say my friend and I am, is that accepted? I'm asking this because I usually make this mistake. Thank you for the video ❤️

    • @engvidAlex
      @engvidAlex  Год назад +1

      In this case, "My friend and I are..." is the correct form. You're saying "We are." If you use "or," the verb agrees with the closest subject. For example, "Julia or I am going to get the job." But even in this case, "Julia or I are..." is accepted.
      "My friend and I am..." sounds weird and isn't accepted...at least, not where I live, and not in the areas I'm familiar with. :)

      Hi, Alex. I am a stickler for grammar accuracy. As a result, it always surprises me to see English teachers, some of whom are natives, making these mistakes while teaching.

      Ha! What a question. :) Not really, no. As I mentioned, good grammar is always preferable to technically incorrect grammar. If you do make these mistakes, though, it's not a massive deal in a casual setting (unless your friends are grammar jerks!).
