    These abbreviations derive from Latin:
    e. g. = exempli gratia (for example, for instance)
    i. e. = id est (that is, this is)
    etc. = et cetera (and so on, and so forth)

    Also there are abbreviations you can learn e.g.

    RE. = About
    Inc. = including
    P.S. = postscript ( a message written at the end of a letter, after the signature )

    For those who are wondering why RSVP for please reply. Well, RSVP (Répondez S'il Vous Plaît = please reply) is actually a very common French acronym that entered the American language. The Francophones also use the popular acronyms SVP and STP to say please.

    You are an american teacher. That's why I didn't expect you to tell that RSVP is a french abbreviation for "respondez, s'il vous plaît". Well, you still teach your children that the brazilian Santos Dumont was not the first who flew in a machine heavier than the air. My Gosh!

    Hi Emma,
    As always great video!!!
    However I think you have made small mistakes:
    1) PIN - Personal IDENTIFICATION number
    2) BYOB - Bring Your Own BOTTLE.
    In Canada I think you may say "Bring your own beer" because of drinking a lot of this alcoholic drink in your country.
    I love watching you!
    Best wishes from Poland!

    The question you made at the end when you were talking about ATM: "are there any ATM in this mall?" .When I want to ask those kind of questions I frequently use "is" instead of "are". Would it be a mistake if I ask: "is there any ATM in this mall?"?

    Emma.
    When you gave me a example of RSVP, whey you put 'Please' in front of RSVP.
    Cause You explain RSVP stand for 'Please Reply'.
    So, "please RSVP" means "please please reply"? Is this right?

    Hi Emma; Thanks for your video, as usual very helpful. One question: if you say "please RSVP," wouldn´t that be a redundancy since RSVP means "please reply"? shouldn´t you just say: "RSVP"?

    • @dougcunha
      @dougcunha 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ankavaro She is not wrong! "please RSVP" is often used. See the wiktionary definition (en.wiktionary.org/wiki/RSVP)
      "Properly, used by itself, but often used in the redundant form “please RSVP”, “RSVP” being used to mean “reply to an invitation”. Such redundancy is an example of RAS syndrome."
