  • Discover the 5 spelling rules that will help to transform your English writing accuracy! Don't worry! They are not as complicated as they look! I'll show you lots of examples (in context) to make it really easy for you! 📝 Get your FREE lesson PDF here 👉🏼 ewl.info/spelling-tips (There is a BIG quiz at the end!)
    IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 18:28 - "skillful" is the most common spelling in American English. Skilfull is a very old-fashioned version. I apologise for any confusion I caused there!

    If a word contains an even number of letters, an odd number of vowels, and a prime number of consonants, then its plural must be formed by reversing the penultimate letter, and then adding a double 's' at the end. 😂😁

    I think the suffix 'y' is also a consonant or can be said to be started with a constant then it is also a exception if you pay attention

    Dear lovely Lucy, while watching this video I realised you said "dedicate a little bit of time TO LEARNING". Instead, in that sentence I thought it was right to say "dedicate a little bit of time TO LEARN". Please help me by teaching in a new video why is it right to use "to learning" in that sentence instead of "to learn" also please mention examples for both in different sentences so we all may understand when to use each term in a sentence. Many thanks, I love your work and your willingness to help everyone to learn English. Gracias & ❤.
    Not sure if you’ve already explained this topic in other video. 😉
