Have you heard the interesting English expression I shared at 09:04??
“either either” (pronounced EE-ther AI-ther)
Can you think of a situation where you could use this expression?
The pronunciation "eether" is not what I had learnt at school in Australia. Sounds more American to me.
Nope, I haven't yet, thanks dear cute Emma a lot for your captivating work!❤👍
Could you please clarify me this one. If I've got a typical US speech accent, I can say it as *_AI-ther_* *_AI-ther?_* Or not? How would it be for the US pronouncing?
@@davesmith6436 Well, I grew up and went to school in Australia. It was always AI-ther in those days. Nobody ever pronounced it "eether". Here in Germany I used to work for the Americans and never heard any of them use AI-ther. It was always "eether". But as Emma said, you can use both, every native speaker will understand you.

Well, hey there, Emma again!✋ How are you now?😊
As I promised earlier, I decided to watch this lesson one more time *_since_* I had found that out an extremely useful one for me as an English learner while I was watching it a half a year ago, right? *_As a result,_* I wanna go back *_and_* watch that again! You know, I actually love all of your videos, it doesn't really matter what they're about *_whereas_* others are searching the specific types of lessons *_such as_* phrasal verbs videos *_or_* idioms lessons! *_But_* I always find them all extremely come in handy, *_in fact!_*
Keep up doing the stunning job, Emma!🥰 You're really brilliant at teaching English!👍👍👍
There is a teacher named Emma. She teaches English as well as grammar rules. Despite there being many other teachers, she is something special. You can choose either Emma or others, and as a result, you will benefit since you are working really hard, especially on English grammar and connectors. In fact, you are doing an amazing job. Keep going and don't give up✌.
We must sincerely say that both our English learning and listening skills can beautifully grow up as a result of MMMEnglish channel.
In fact
This subject informal vs formal linking words is so interesting. You surprise us every now and then by teaching a subject no other teacher has ever touched upon! Thank you so much for being creative and innovative.
Hey Emma! 🙋♂️ Thank you for this set of new tips for us, English explorers! 😎👍
I wish the whole community of mmmEnglish only the best! 🙌😊
The more we practice, the more fluent we become! 🔥
*Let's boost our English speaking skills together!* 💪🤩
Dear Emma, your lessons are really amazing and always so inspiring for my lessons with Italian adults as well as younger school students.
Thank you Emma! As a teacher of English in the Primary School, I' m improving my listening skills and use of the language every day.
Hello dear teacher from Buenos Aires Argentina. Thanks for this spectacular lesson. You help us a lot to improve our skills in grammar and also to understand native English speakers giving us tips like the pronunciation of either . We are making so much progress as a result of watching all your videos.😘🌹💝
You're awesome ma'am Emma.
You make it easy to undertand.

Love from high school student living in the PHILIPPINES
Emma, as you may know, I am Portuguese and I am very happy to know that you love my country so much. Hugs from Seve.
There is one teacher who stays in our minds forever. Thank you for being that teacher.
Love your lessons as always. Be always with us to lead the way to learn more new things in this adventurous journey. And I love to watch and listen to your beautiful voice.🧡
Ponderous words to a wonderful teacher.
Hello Emma, a hilarious and optimistic teacher. This video is pretty beneficial. Your idea about comparison casual and professinal context is perfect. However, linking words are sometimes neglected by us. I need to practise them as much as possible. An imaginary situation for an expression "Either either"/ After 2 shopping hours when your husband is knackered and you ask what kind of dress to choose for purchasing, (eiher blue it matches with the colour of your eyes or white)he replies "either either".He is too tired to think proper way.His only wish to do home. Thanks for this brillian video.
hahaha yes, this is the perfect scenario!! 😂
Ohhh
Yes I noticed all of these formal linking words!
And by the way I love these formal linking words than informal ones!
Remarkable lesson!
Thank you so much for taking your valuable time!
Outstanding as always!
Best of luck to you!🙏
We love mmmEnglish and her casual and professional attitude. Both the style of her Teaching, EMMA is our INSPIRATION.
Woo your explanation is amazing.infact the way you teach the lesson of english speaking practice is realy helpfull to non native speaker as well as native also. I frequently watch your video hardly I miss to watch your video

Thank you for your well-planned and perfectly explained lessons Emma💚

Perfect creative content as usual, Emma. I always struggle with linking words, you classified and categorised them simply❤
Hi

Thanks so much Emma xan for this lesson. It is very affective lesson especially for me to speak and write English theoretically since we mix between professional and slang words especially in writing.

In fact, I really appreciate learning with your voice and enthusiasm. Thanks Emmmmma.
Thank you dear Emma. This new video lesson really helped me to know more about these everyday linking words/conjunctions. In fact, I find these formal linking words more useful in IELTS writing, which are really necessary to describe our essay topics😊
Sure, the more formal words are prefect for your essays!

These linking words are very, very useful. Thank you, Emma!

Another fantastic lesson, Emma! Although i already knew many of the linking words, o found this lesson very useful and brilliantly performed by you.

Hi Emma ... I have been in Miami USA for my birthday occasion.. and all people speak 🙊🗣️ Spanish... There are people from Argentina 🇦🇷 (my country) working in the same hotel was i rented ..
People from the city was i born (Posadas Argentina 🇦🇷) inclusive..
By the way.. you looks great with the blue dress 👗 and the glasses 🕶️.. looks so intelectual
It's alwasy so far to be so far from home and surrounded by people from your country! It happens in Bali for me (Bali is full of Australians!) 😂
Happy birthday, Javier!

I like all English teachers on line, but the way you teach, it attracts me the most, because it's original and vigorous.
I like to improve my spoken English, as well as written English.
Portugal is an interesting country, as well as the cheapest one to visit in Europe.
As a result of passing my exams ,to my surprise ,I was reworded to visit to Portugal. Where as I rather wanted to visit to an English spoken country.
It didn't matter to to me, either you come to us or I'll come to you.
As a result of my failure in English Exam, I was severely reprimanded, whereas my smart sister was generously reworded.
I have been linking sentences with coherence because I am learning how to use connectors. This lesson is useful, thank You and god bless you
No time.. In a few months you people will definitely be kicking themselves regret for missing the opportunity to buy or invest in forex/cryptocurrency and Bitcoin trade.
Bitcoin has been the most profitable investment online, if only you could trade with professional broker. that we work you through the process needed.
how do I get a professional broker to trade for me, i have been trading on my own and blowing up my account?
