    Dear teacher, I'd like to know if these sentences sound OK in English, especially regarding the usage of 'less' and 'short'
    1. Despite this being festive season, business is less / short for us.
    2. Being a holiday, buses are short today.
    3. My knowledge of science is less / short.
    Please help me.

    Passive Voice is more complex compared to Reported Speech which is quite simple and just requires following the rules.

  • @kamatchihariharan369
    @kamatchihariharan369 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hey, Greg!
    I have already watched some of your videos. I love the way you teach.
    However, I have a doubt in this video. I think you just focused only on backshifting the tense in the reported speech, not on changing the words of time and place accordingly.
    For example,
    "Have you been living here long?"
    Your answer was:
    She asked whether I had been living here long.
    As far as I know..
    When we use "here", then it means the speaker still lives in the same place, so he/she doesn't have to backshift the tense and can keep up the present perfect continuous (have been living).
    Or, if we backshift the tense, we should change "here" into "there" as well.
    So, I don't know why you didn't change the time and place words accordingly.
    If you reply to me regarding this, it will be very helpful for me to understand the reported speech better.

  • @Atletaa
    @Atletaa 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Is it the same with these sentences?
    I thought he was happy
    or
    I thought he is happy
    Or in a different case :
    i thought he had been happy
    I wanted to use backshifting cause it looks similiar to reported speech
    Alternatively with a Word "promise" :
    I had promised i would do it the following day

  • @Mindlift_Coaching
    @Mindlift_Coaching 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Why we don't change "were" (engagements were) to Past Perfect in the following example:
    Direct speech: Grandma: When I was your age, engagements were very short… maybe 3 months. Do you think you will have a short or long engagement?
    Woman: I imagine a long one. John has his important business trips coming up.
    Reported speech: It was good! She asked me when we thought we would get married. I said that I didn’t know. Then she told me that in her time, engagements were short. Then she asked me if I thought we would have a short or long engagement.

    Can I say: They said they have been practising for hours. If yes, is it still reported speech?
    And similar: The chef said he will be cooking later. Instead of using 'would'. (AI said it is also correct)

    • @ALIDAFAR.
      @ALIDAFAR. 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Dude, in everyday English(informal English) we don't follow that rule, for example, "I'm doing my homework", would be "he said he's doing his homework". But if you wanna stick to the grammar, it'd be like this " he said he was doing his homework".
      Hope it helps.
