Look I know that ur an Indian teacher

[@bertiepimplebum5633]

I was poorly educated in England at a Secondary Modern School decades ago. I left school without the ability to write a sentence that didn't have mistakes in it. I live alone now. I've purchased around 15 teach yourself English/Grammar books. I read through every one and do every test therein. Obviously, I have improved. However, I can never tell which word is a noun, verb, preposition and the like. I write letters and humour articles to magazines purely for money and I do well. I want to learn more about grammar and become as good as the tutors shown here. I find taking screenshots with my smartphone better than pausing the video when it comes to trying to memorize what has been shown. What I would like is to have items I've written proofread and edited so that I can learn this way. I would like to write short stories and true crime articles. To learn this I would need the correct tution. Regards. U.K.

[@faysalwaqar1628]

Many of the native and non native grammar teachers teach determiners as a sub category of adjectives, and not a separate part of speech.
What is the basic reason of giving them value of an exclusive category of parts of speech?
Plz clear the confusion. Thanks!

I understand your effort but it is still complicated

[@erciandrade3514]

Pay attention!
Adverbs explains how, when, or how much people and animal do things. It describes how, when or how much things happen.
Adjectives explain how people, objects, place, animals are.

[@arpitabhuiyan6689]

English is one of the most complicated language to ever exist. But your video was quite helpful.

[@zaidmehmood]

Hello sir,
I have a question.. is there reflexive adjective in English?
Thanking you in anticipation
Zaid

[@marwanmarwan5810]

assalamo alikom dear ZAID
actually there are reflexive pronouns not adjectives. the reflexive Pronouns combined by personal pronouns with -self, -selves, and they may be used reflexively such as : Mat hurt himself.
or may be used intensively for emphasis :
Mat himself was not hurt .

[@ritusonii2197]

Great video. Is this sentence correct-you are playing me hide and seek?
Plsss answer

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Hi Ritu, since 'hide and seek' is the name of the game, you can simply say, 'Are you playing hide and seek?'.

determiners are describing nouns and it also adjectives

[@engineerharato8883]

How to be onliner one

[@Jack-bj1lx]

It is important to note that the term determiner is NOT a part of speech. Rather, it is a term used with reference to the structure [syntax] of a sentence. That is, predeterminers and determiners both are functional elements of a sentence.

[@Jack-bj1lx]

That’s what it said when I did a little research🤔

[@james9003]

Hi I've just come across the video. Getting to the point directly-- "Put it there..." Can "there" in the sentence also be an "Adverb of Place" ? "I played in the playground at 5 o clock" in this sentence "The playground is a noun as well as an adverb of place and "5 o clock" is an adverb of time". They describe the verb ( "Where" played and "When played"). Look forward to hearing from you or anybody else who goes through it"

[@AhmedAli-ej2ts]

As per the traditional English grammar, there are 8 parts of speech and the determiners are included in the category of adjectives. It is bit strange that they are calling that wrong in this video. Modern grammars categorizes certain words as determiners and that's the whole difference, it doesn't make the traditional grammar wrong.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Hi Ahmed, it's not necessarily wrong. It's our approach to the subject. Thanks for watching!

[@AhmedAli-ej2ts]

@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 you could have said that but you choose to say wrong instead. Thank you anyway

[@keithfolse4068]

Ahmed, I agree that there are 8 POS traditionally. However, from a teaching point of view, it makes sense to use ADJECTIVES for words that truly describe (good, expensive, different, beautiful, egregious) because these words do one job: they describe. If we are going to use this line of thinking, then it also makes very god sense to separate the different ADVERBS into different POS, too, because they do very different jobs AND they appear in very different places in an English sentence. For example, an adverb of frequency (always, never) comes before an action verb but after BE and after an auxiliary verb (have always been working). An adverb of time often come near the end of a sentence, but it can also come at the very beginning of a sentence (We played tennis yesterday OR Yesterday we played tennis). An adverb of place is often similar. An adverb of degree (as explained in the excellent video) comes before the word it modifies/describes: It is very hot; They spoke very quickly. -- Despite the fact that it would make sense to have not 8 or 9 but rather 15 POS, we are stuck with 8 if we use traditional books or 9 if we have DETERMINERS as a separate POS. :-)
