  • @truongphixp

    I can't stop watching once i open any videos of you. And Vanessa, i wish you could make some other videos (maybe live version) to talk about this one in more details because each word in this video is pronounced once only, i know that i can replay the video but, you know, i dont know why i dont wanna do that. Not because of laziness but because i wanna listen to your voice continuously and the way you explain more about a certain thing.
    Thanks a ton for the videos you have made to teach us all over the world. We love you so much beautiful Vanessa

    info for English learners:
    I think using contractions in even the most formal writing and speech is not always bad. Keep in mind that contractions are not slang, so unless you're doing something really fancy or formal, it should be fine to use them.
    For example, I would be okay with using contractions in a formal job interview.

I work in a hospital and I'm studying nursing, sometimes I don't understand the whole sentence in a conversation and it's because of the contractions that native speakers use.

  • @Glayderson
    @Glayderson 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Hey. First off, thank you for this awesome lesson. I find the topic very important for non-natives as it's so natural and often used by natives, but confuses non-natives a lot. Learning how to hear and identify this sounds, helps us a lot in the listenning process. In the future, I think you should explore more the contractions, maybe with real conversations that use them. It'd be very helpful.
    As for the lights, I noticed you were a bit bothered by the strong light beam coming to your eyes. At least in the beginning of the video, you were blinking significantly. Maybe if you place the lights a bit farther from you it helps. Again, thanks Vanessa for your valueable lessons.
