    Hardly (in the beginning) acting as an adverb!
    Never in a while had I thought this way.

    Thank you so much for your every "formal" lesson, sir. I'm so glad to find out your channel. Your lessons are maily focused on the students of TOEFL, IELTS, etc and that is the main reason that I fond of your channel.

    Great video, Adam!
    I have a doubt. I used to be under the impression that we should not use modal verbs in if-clause, but when I heard your example with should in it, I have got a little confused.
    Could you please share a video where I can get everything about conditionals?

    The sentence @14:20, the more connected one is, the more is one likely to find partners", please explain why it is inversed. Usually we don't inverse in such sentence. E.g. the more connected you are, the more likely you will find partners". Is the inversion only for when "one" is the subject?

    Will you please do a video about the CHANGES in TOEFL 2019 WRITING SECTION and a video for the INTEGRATED TASK?
    By the way, I have taken the exam 3 times in 2019 and always got 23 or less. I am guessing that they are making the questions more lengthy and this troubles me in time management. I only need to gain 24. I have all your three phenomenal books and still struggling with the first task for some unknown reason.
    I would appreciate it if you could make videos on the above subjects.

    @zulalkar9941 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much for your lesson. I have a question about the more... The more.. usage. The example you gave in the lesson about the more the more, if we don't make inversion in this sentence how we can say the clause? The more connected one is, the more likely found partners one is. Is this sentence true?
    Thank you in advance.

    "Be" meaning "whether" may not be so difficult for Portuguese speakers as we do use the verb to be in "whether" clauses.

    Dear Adam,
    First of all, your videos are awesome, and the way you explain is really fantastic.
    I have a small question concerning the conditional inversion;
    If the tense used in the original sentence was the present perfect continuous, would the 'had/should/were' version be infinitive as well?
    If physical education has been introduced to school curriculum, students' mental abilities as well as the physical ones would definitely improve.
    Had physical education to introduce....? Or to be introduced?
    Appreciated your response.
    Regards,

    Hi, Adam! You said that "hardly" could be used as a quantifier as well, showing the amount " Hardly anyone came to the lecture", but you mentioned hardly later as being used for showing the amount, using inversion in that example. My question: when using "hardly" as a quantifier, showing the amount, is allowed to use inversion or not?

    There is a question in my mind
    Q1 can we use inversion in subordinate clauses.
    Original sentence:-
    1) This is the time when my bike is there .
    "Inversion" in subordinate clause like this:-
    This is the time when "there" is my bike.
    Q1) in Inverted Sentence :-
    Is "THERE" word still adverb of place
    Q1)sir this Inverted Subordinate Clause is correct or incorrect
    If this is incorrect
    Please tell me why it is wrong.
