      Could you please make a video about the ACT English (best strategies)? I’m 24, and I would love to go to College soon, and in order to do this I need to do that. I want to have a 36, a perfect score, but I need a lot of help. 😂

    I'm a canadian and I'm always saying sorry, so this definitely helps expand that word into different meanings.

    • @slowone8367
      @slowone8367 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      "You are not just teach us english" you should change that to, "you are not just teachING us english"

    • @Alina-hy4yg
      @Alina-hy4yg 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Or even better : ,,you do not only teach us english" (I'm not a native speaker, but for me it sounds more correctly, lol)

    • @slowone8367
      @slowone8367 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @adrielhernandez6005
    @adrielhernandez6005 2 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    Thank you for this lesson, as a Spanish speaker it gets hard to not say "sorry" in almost every moment hahaha because I think that just saying oops or something different it's not enough, thanks again ❤️

  • @RicoBurghFan
    @RicoBurghFan 2 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    Saying sorry is also appropriate when expressing sympathy as when someone tells you their loved one died or when they tell you bad news. "I'm so sorry for your loss." In this case it expresses your sadness at what happened.

    • @Chucomar
      @Chucomar 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Instead of so sorry: my condolences and prayers to you and your family.

    • @thugpug4392
      @thugpug4392 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yeah say "I'm sorry for your loss" though not just "I'm sorry". "My condolences" is better.

    It's just like in French. "Désolé"= sorry and "pardon" or "excuser"= excuse me. You're right, in French too, you don't say Désolé when you've nit done anything wrong that required an apology, instead you heard the French use pardon
