Mam, you know your eyes shine when you smile, keep teaching and keep smiling
Thumbs up! I appreciate that. Quite clear explanation, exact and to the point. Rise and shine!
Cheers!
Thank you Anna for a brilliant lesson! I thought I had already nailed noun phrases, but watching your video just shed new light on this grammar point, for which I'm very grateful!
One more thing, I particularly enjoy the podcasts with transcripts you've been creating, and those C1-C2 vocabulary lessons! Hope to see more of these in the future!
Many thanks for this lesson
Thank you very much, it's very helpful
A brilliant lesson Anna which I guess will be very useful for beginners and 'lower/middle intermediates'.
That said I suppose we could live without it, a bit like Monsieur Jourdain was making and speaking prose without even knowing it ! ;-) ('Le bourgeois gentilhomme' by Molière).
Personally I like grammar lessons. I think that is important to master and get a good understanding of the structure and the logical of a language.
I think that 3 / 4 years at a normal school rhythm is enough to master the entire English grammar (which was my case), where 8 to 9 years are necessary for a good mastery of French grammar. And still, beyond and after middle and even high school, rare are those who really master it and without making mistakes ... Vive l' anglais ! Even if French, of course, remains that beautiful and extraordinary language.
That red colour suits you well, you're magnificent!
Merci beaucoup Anna, love ya, bisous bisous 😘🌹💕💕

9:09 yeah sure sure!
Wonderful Video Anna. Keep up the great work cheers x
Thank you! Will do!
thanks teacher
You are welcome
Thank you for the very articulate and logical explanation. Actually, I like learning English (or European languages in general) because it’s (grammatically) way more logical than my native language (Japanese). 😊
In the example with uncle, you first misidentified "uncle" as the head noun. It is of course"man".
Ah, yes, you are correct, a slip of the tongue there, my bad. The man (my uncle) is the head noun. Thank you for picking that up.
let's get grammatical! Nice one. Thanks!
Thank you so much. :)
You are really so cute . I admire you for you kindness
The scruffy black and white cat wearing a red collar with a silver bell on it,was lost during all the video 😂🥺
Hi there this abdourahmane I am from senegale I glad to see, and I hope so that I new person this country but right now I live in Peterborough so I need to improve the English language and how to know regular verb irregular .I can speak French then I need yours helping me thank.
Mam, however I test my level in British Council, never be more than B1 level. What should I get C1?
When I was in England, in a library I found a three horizontal sections cut book ( each page was cut in 3 sections) with swear words taken from Shakespeare's work that you could combine matching each of the upper stripe of the swear word page with any of the other lower stripes. Shakespeare was a maestro at making naughty noun phrases 👅
Indeed he was. I have done a similar exercise with shakespearian words and it was hilarious.
Hi Anna. This sounds like a most useful lesson. Thank you. By the way, would you say that "noun phrase" and noun clause" are two different concepts and explain a bit about how to use both?
Before Anna has a chance to reply, let me give it a try,
Yes, these are two different concepts. A *noun phrase* is just a noun plus its modifiers (adjectives, quantifiers, articles, even relative clauses, as shown in the video). A *noun clause* is (as the name suggests) a *clause,* i.e. a subject (noun/pronoun) + verb + (optionally) object, adverbials, etc. that *functions like a noun* in a sentence.
For example, in _What he said made no sense,_ "What he said" is a noun clause because it behaves the same as a noun or prooun ( *It* made no sense, *The story* made no sense) . The clause functions as the subject of the sentence.
In _I don't believe what she said._ "what she said" is also a noun clause, but this time it's the object of "believe". The clause could be replaced with a pronoun or noun (I don't believe *it,* I don't believe *her story* ).
To compare the two concepts:
I don't believe *the unbelievably stupid story.* - the highlighted part is a noun phrase.
I don;t believe *what she told me last night.* - the highlighted part is a noun clause.
It can get a little confusing when a clause is part of a noun phrase:
I don't believe *the unbelievably stupid story that she told me last night.*
The clause which is part of this noun phrase is a relative (adjecive) clause, though, not a noun clause. It doesn't function like noun, but more like an adjective that tells us more about the head noun ("story").
@@onesandzeroes Excellent explanation Pawel ! Well done ! 👍👌
Wow 🤩 just wow! @pawel X
@@fabrice9252 Thank you 😀
@@EnglishLikeANative Thanks 😊
Jacinda arden quit & said "I no longer have enough in the tank". What is that mean?
I want details on the adjective please
i love you
Было бы лучше для обучаемых, чтобы каждое произнесенное учителем слово, выделялось визуально. Спасибо.
Today you are red nice wearing....anna.....
😯
If someone is studying the English Language, ok, this is a lesson for him. But if someone wants to learn to speak English .. all that is useless, unfortunately.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think in love with you, finally I can understand!!!!
ok now i'm feeling dumb LOL
All
Kindly let me know how to make difference between noun phrase and adjective phrase as both sounds identical. Heere some examples are
I bought a beautiful black decent shirt.
What kind of shirt? Beautiful black decent shirt... It should be adjective phrase but is is noun phrase.. Why? Could you explain the reason pls..
Hello everybody
I have been
~~~~ Anna ~~~~
Three hundred days it's been
That I have been circling
Around a love evening
With Anna
Ye, Five full months it's been
That she's been escaping
She must find me too dim
Not strong enough in theme
I can't find the thema
That does make wet Anna
To each of my poems
Anna, Anna, Anathema
'Can't find the theorem
At the board of Anna
I am a 'cancre las'
Weary, tired, Oh las !
Oh how weary I am
Yes buddies there I am
With Anna
Yet I'm following her
Like the gentle porter
Carrying the letters
Of melancholia
But I'll find the thema
That will water Anna
Her gaze of a mermaid
Will look into my case
She will get my lady
That her jewel is me
Hip Hip Hip Hip Hurrah
Hip Hip Hip Eureka
O Hosa HosAnnah!
She'll understand my queen
The extent of my skills
The value of my quill
But now in the waiting:
Three hundred days it's been
that I have been circling
Around a love Evening
With Anna
Ye five full months it's been
That she's been escaping
She must find me too dim
Not strong enough in theme.

I can't understand whole of grammar 😢😢
~~~~~ Pastoral obsession ~~~~
I love to stroll around, nature's so beautiful,
Constantly ecstatic at the sight sensual
Of the many bold curves, which to my vision draw,
To my greatest delight, the ones of my neighbour!
The groove of the ploughing that rises to the crest,
In an undulation lasciviously perfect
Imposes upon me the spine's superb vision
On the fall of the back of my troubling neighbour.
Two mounds in the distance, which bar the horizon
Looking at the heavens, stretched out in oration,
In a voluptuousness of a divine lewdness,
It is the insolent curve of my neighbour's breasts.
And the arrogant grove enthroned in the field' midst
The feet in the dampness of an enticing stream,
Whose frippery fluid so much me enamours
It's the bushy scorching thicket of my neighbour.
Farther a brazen breach my eyes follow amazed
Cuts, in two prideful mounts, a mischievous mountain;
Triumphant and haughty, and all up there it walks,
The impertinent groove of my neighbour's buttocks.
When I arrive back home, still moved and nostalgic
And my whole mind filled with erotic fantasies,
I find my neighbour lad in a naughty posture
Besogoning my spouse,... 'quite his liking' neighbour.
