- How do you talk about people and events in your past? I’ll show you three ways to do that, using “to be”, “would”, and “used to”. You’ll learn how these each are used in English in different situations or to convey a particular meaning or mood. You’ll also learn both polite and informal ways to say that someone died: “pass away”, “no longer with us”, “croaked”, “dropped dead”, and more. Life has its ups and downs. It’s good to have the words to describe those times. After the lesson, take the quiz at www.engvid.com/learn-english-...

Hello Ronnie i come from Vietnam 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you Ronnie, I love you so much ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ and more!!!!
May the Lord God almighty watch over you......always, God bless!!!!
Best teacher thanks for your efforts
I appreciate your useful lessons. Thank you a lot, my great English teacher 🌷🌷
”Would" is one of the word I have been struggling... Thanks for the lesson! Always love to learn from you!!
Thank you, Ronnie!
I've been learning English with you since 2020 you’ve been great since then. Just like gold doesn't tarnish.🎉
Thank you, Ronnie, for your outstanding lessons compared to sometimes boring other teachers' lessons! Please keep on doing like you do! Also, it was very fun to find out about sarcastic terms of death in American English. There are some similar sarcastic idioms about someone's death in Russian:
Крякнул (quacked), склеил ласты (glued flippers), отбросил коньки (cast off skates), сыграл в ящик (played in a box), зажмурился (squint).
And may be you'll give us a lesson about punctuation, because there are some differences in this topic between Russian and English and it would be cool to watch your lesson about that.
Ronnie, you are brilliant teacher. thank you for your brilliant tutorials!! my English is improving since I started watching your videos.
A great contribution indeed! Keep going.

What about when they say there was a decease?
So many to remember and use hehe
I wish I had a friend like her
Thanks mam
Hi Ronnie. Using "would" to talk about a past habit seems rather odd for me. I don't remember being taught that at school when I was young, they made us use "used to"
Yes Ronnie you’re the best one, but I would like to see more of the latter can you
Move a little on side so I want to see and make a note
Thank you
Your are great 😂
Hi teacher i am sri Lanka
Hello ma'am I am your great friend
I didn't understand the ending, What was on the blackboard? who is Trevor? 🤔🤔
Trevor seems to be her pet... There was nothing on the lesson about him, she just mentioned it at the end.
Yeah! He's the keeper of the graveyard! She was joking.... Probably to smooth the lesson!
In Russian language we have similar expression: "Glued the Fins" (like swimming fins glued together). Same meaning to "Kicked the Bucket".
Склеил ласты....😊And also we could say He is "крякнул"😊
And also "отбросить коньки")
@@galka7 one more "дать дуба"))) Ещё есть варианты?))
Hello ronnie
Don't get tens Abu Huraira when we talk about tenses. Ok.. let me ask you a simple question, I am beautiful. What tense is it?
Teacher! Obviously it's the past tens
Am the first one
جميل جداً بالتوفيق إن شاءلله للجميع تحياتي 👍🙏عندى كولكشن للشغلى ياريت اعرف رايك فيه تحياتي ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
👍👍🙏🙏💙💙🇧🇷🇧🇷
What's the past tense of your name?
💙💙💙💙💙💙🤦😮
then how do we talk about thing we don't do any more. it's just used to ?
I think that the "kick the bucket" action means death, and it is probably a rude behavior.🤔
Away from the video content , but ... remember that it's not nice to talk about people badly when they are abscent ...backbiting is not good anyway..
😅😅😅😅😅 did. he passesd the test.
Can't we just say that sentence at 3:04 in the past simple? "We always went to the park..."
ronnie being old and loss her vocal stress. Hurry up ronnie
Please don't make grammar mistakes when teaching English.
