5:07 are you convenient? 大家注意，convenient 不是一個動詞 are you + verb? 是什麼問題，語法不對吧。 are you 就應該加形容詞, 而且convenient 確實是形容詞。只不過convenient不用來形容人，而是一般用來形容 it (emm, 我也不知道如何說得更好)
teacher mike, you are definitely definitely one of my my my favorite english teachers. The lesson is very, very helpful is very funny. know have a lot sense of humor. Thanks so much for sharing.
I have some here, might help =) 1. It looks like vs. it looks as if 2. if + Past tense or present tense 3. pass up vs. hand in 4. Get off vs. get out 5. hot dog and sausage
I’ve heard lots of Chinglish expressions, such as: 1. Mixed blood baby = a multiracial child 2. Eat breakfast/lunch/dinner = have breakfast/lunch/dinner 3. My arms are so pain = my arms are sore 4. When some Chinese people say:”My brother/sister” they actually mean their cousins 5. You are so high = you are so tall 6. Someone runs quickly = someone runs fast 7. I’m so disappointing/frustrating = I’m so disappointed/frustrated 8. You don’t like it, do you? - Yes, I don’t like it = No, I don’t like it.
@@lexiiiyy4105 做从句时 is 方后头。 do you know where the train station is. Where 是know 的宾语。 "the train station is " 是从句用来定义where. 当是一个完整的句子时，则是where is the bathroom. ( 我努力在回忆高中时的语法知识，希望不要误导你
Can I ask a question Do u know where is the station ( wrong) Do u know where the station is ( right ) But why where is the bathroom ( right) I’m so confused about the verb ( is ) 😅 Thanks for teaching from this video
I definitely will! The students gave me a lot of ideas and asked a lot of questions about Chinglish, so I'll try to help make things clear for everyone.
很好的视频，希望麦克老师可以把每节课的内容概括在描述里，这样复习的时候就不用重看一遍视频啦。Good video ! Could you put the knowledge points in the prescription area? So when we do review, there is no need to rewatch the video. Thank you. :-)
I know this might not be a Chinglish but it always kept me thinking on the pronunciation for often. Is it 'of-ten' or 'oft-en'? With 't' sound or without it?
Hi Mike, 我注册了商务英语的马拉松课程，是需要提前7天预约group class吗，从B1开始？Any classes booked before the first date of the Marathon, 27th May 2019, for whatever reason, will result in disqualification. 条款里面的这句话怎么理解呢？
Hey, Mike. Would u mind to teach us how to us ‘exactly’? I always hear this word, but don’t know how to use it. In addition, I have little confused about 2 sentences, could u help me with these two sentences. if I wanna ask something, maybe I can use” where the train station is?” In this situation ‘ is’ is at the end of the sentence. But if I have to ask ‘ where is the toilet’ , “is” is at the middle of the sentence. Why the place of ‘is’ is different in these two sentences?
Hi.. shouldn't it be "do you know where the restroom is?" instead of "where's the restroom?" ? Reference made to the example on train station. Please advise, thanks
每个都很经典，我笑了 These and Those Professor, doctor, instructor, teacher 饭店名称和吃：Do you want to eat Panda？ 过度连续使用sorry, like, yeah 说价格时： 0.25: zero point two five dollar→ quarter 19.65: nineteen point six five dollars→nineteen sixty-five 长度： 1.5 inch: one point five inch→ one-half inch
Mike老师，I have got this question for many years since I first started living in an English speaking country, how do English speaking people pronounce new words, like last names, street names, shops names, brands etc. that they first met? Do you get them right the first time? Most of the time they are not found in dictionary.
Thank you for the great video Mike! Can you please make an episode discussing "not incorrect but weird sounding" written English? Or words native speakers would use? For example "community" " infrastructure" I feel like these words have very different meaning from what I meant in China. Hope my request makes sense. Thanks you!
Ya I have made a few videos like that in the past but received a lot of criticism because they aren't technically 'mistakes'. Also because I teach American English, some of the American habits are strange in the UK, and some British English habits are also very strange sounding in America. So it's difficult to say for sure the universal rules in English.
Thanks a lot for the useful tips. Anyway, I personally find the Mistake#7 is a bit absurd as it is an acceptable sentence in Malaysian syllabus. Though it sounds old-fashioned, as if in Austen's novels, there's nothing wrong with "I haven't any money to give you". The verb "to Have" doesn't act as an auxiliary here.
Only in Malaysia though....You'll never hear this in any other part of the world. I think 'absurd' is a bit of an exaggeration. You should check the Oxford Dictionary.
Thanks for your reply, 麦克老师。 I'd definitely share your videos to my students. Well, maybe you could explain about "borrow vs lend". 中文里只有"借". Keep it up, all the best!
cam40729 the word “convenient” is usually used to describe objects and situations, very rarely a person. The sentence “are you convenient” is grammatically correct as you pointed out, it just gives off a very negative meaning, as if you are treating the other person as a mere object. Hope that helps
Hi, Mike! In the No.2 example, you said- where can I find a toilet? Why don’t you use “look for”? 另外，小孩跑來找我玩，我說我在忙，去找媽媽....我可以說 just go to your mother嗎？ .... thanks in advance!
What are some other 'Chinglish' questions you want me to help you with???
我第一次聽人說^do you like spicy^?😂😂
Teacher Mike 麦克老师 谢谢你的分享Mike老师。我有一个问题，你说问问题的时候要把is放在最后面，do you know where the train station is? 可是在提到WC的时候却变成了where is the WC, 我想知道为什么这个is又放在前面又放在后面的？

Hi Teacher Mike, I am not sure how to use the word "yet", could you please talk about it sometimes?
Maybe I can prepare a video lesson about it.
Plus either and neither
The news can’t be released yet because there are some people
who must be notified first.
说白了就是“还没”，not ready yet还没准备好，not done yet还没做完

我比较想听老师分享如何引导地方的方向， 比如说在通电话叫朋友去一家餐馆的教学
Please talk about accountable vs responsible. Thanks
when we use "are you convenient？" 你说大家别忘记convenient 不是一个动词，所以我们才用“are you” instead of “do you”，现在要改成are you free now了！谢谢mike老师!

Eugene Lothario it’s American English VS British English, both are right

Eugene Lothario of-ten is the British one
Hi Mike, 我注册了商务英语的马拉松课程，是需要提前7天预约group class吗，从B1开始？Any classes booked before the first date of the Marathon, 27th May 2019, for whatever reason, will result in disqualification. 条款里面的这句话怎么理解呢？
謝謝麥克老師講解！
老師你好
其實我好不明白為什麼is會放在後面
是美式英語嗎?
就例如
How can I help you?
What can I help you with?
兩句都是同樣意思
但第二句為什麼要有with和又可以放在後面呢?
謝謝
因为文中的句子是where引导的宾语从句，而宾语从句用陈述语序。 与陈述语序相对应的语序是“倒装语序”
因为倒装其实说白了就是不遵循主语+谓语的顺序
，相应的就是陈述语序就是在句中要遵循先主语后谓语的顺序。在迈克视频里的这句话中,从句中的主语是the train station，谓语是 is ，所以 ,is 要放在最后面。
Help 的对象是人，不是帮助的内容，所以陈述句中应是help you with something. 提问时what 代替了something 并且提前了，所以剩下with 在最后😊
Very useful to me, thanks.
Things like "black sheep"..中文直译是black horse... possible to do a vid on those? :)
麦克老师你的课非常棒！！！！特别是中式英文错误Ahhhh^_^

Is都放在中间，宾语从句才是陈述语序
不错的，幽默式教学！赞👍

Where is the WC? 可以！ Do you know where is the WC? 不可以！ Do you know where the WC is? 可以！
First time to watch your videos. I do like these.
你好想問下為什麼 are you convenient 是錯的？
大J斌 因为convenient这个词一般用来形容东西和事情，不会用来形容人。虽然语法上说得通，但说出来感觉你不把对方当人看，显得对方十分“没价值”或好像可以随便被使用一样。个人见解，希望对你有帮助
我覺得很棒 已關注
哈哈哈 几乎每项都中招😝😂
干货
Love your video so much, could you please explain how to use definitely，absolutely and exactly. I can't use this three words very well.
Is there a conflict between Number 4 and 2? Which is the correct one? Where is the wc / where the wc is
"I don't know where the WC is" is fine. As long as "I don't know" or "Do you know" is in front, the sentence structure changes a bit.
How long vs How long time?
Thanks.😜
老師 拜託請教教我如何區分knew 和 know
這個困擾我已久
例如我知道這件事，在大多數情況下是“已經懂了”，意指某件事早已預知得到，即是過去式
可是I know it還是普遍到處都是
正確來說，該什麼情況下用 如何用？
hi mike, should i say ' I have a fever' or 'I have fever' ? thank you.
'a fever' because it's a noun that's not specific type of fever. You could say 'I have yellow fever' because it's specific.
Thank you for the clarification.
I don't understand
~I have yellow fever~
heelo miek，我也听到很多人也说 do you konw where si 啥啥啥的。哈哈
haven't 后面要加yet 吗？
我想问下为什么你说问人问题的话是Where the train station is?但是在后面时候你又用回where is the bathroom?到底是哪一个对啊？

Where is不是标准的问句吗？小学初中都这样教的😱回答也是I know where is it 或者I Don't know where is it😨从小到大都这么学的啊。依稀记得is放在后面是倒装句？（记不太清了）

Would like to know more about the usage of to-ving thanks
我學到很多 你解釋得很清楚 讚讚讚
Is this correct that do you like the spicy?
you like spicy?
spicy是形容词，迈克说过了。所以后面要加名词，比如food，迈克也说过了。。。。 你加了the，就代表了“特指”，比如这一桌有很多菜，但是你用了the spicy food就代表你只问了整桌菜中特指的其中一道菜。
@@edwang5139 Generally, the old are not like spicy food.
its very situational. 比如大家都在讨论食物的时候，你对你兄弟说一句you like spicy。我觉得是OK的啦。
至少加个it才说得通吧 问你要不要辣的 Do you like it spicy?
why can not use "where is the train station"but can use "where is the bathroom"？
Sunny YANG 前面的是从句要用陈述句语序 后面单独是一个特殊疑问句
讲 train station 的时候这个句子是定语从句不是疑问句呀！复习一下初中英语哈哈哈！
@@DearNazimi OK，那他说的别人来问where is the train station是错的，那表示疑问的train station怎么说？
@@chivyliu3363 where the train station is是疑问句，他标的？
Sunny YANG 你误会了，不是说train station 不能用where is，而是Do you know后面不能用where is。正确的说法是Where is X？或者Do you know where X is？前者where是单独疑问句，后者的where及其后的部分是定语从句
good job! Mike!
I want to ask teacher mike . I want to join ielts . How about I use England or American word to ? I am confusing
是不是也可以用 Do you know the way to train station
可以！
还是有点搞不清where the train station is?和where is the train station ?为什么后者不对？。大神来指教谢谢。
请问”我需要用钱”用英语写，能写成I need to use money吗？
Hi, teacher Mike, I always have trouble using "seems"! "seems like" "seems that"?? very confusing.
這些英文對我來說幫助很大 但是就是講太快了☹️
最常见的中式英文，而且大多数人基本约定俗成的都这样用，包括很多在中国的老外也这样用这个词，那就是：那个帅哥好man哦！
Teacher Mike, I wanna learn American English, so are there any native-speaking teacher from American in Lingoda?
麦克老师，我想知道，中式英语，美国人能听懂吗？
Yuanwang Lin 其实我们自己也可以判断。以这期内容为例，WC就是美国人可能无法理解的东西。但其他的，主要语法错误为主，并不影响美国人理解其含义。比如good for healthy, do good in exam, know where is it, eat spicy.
Is it correct to say "Do you know where is it?" ?

英語裡面有什麼好的方法說 『加油』？ 我想來想去似乎都沒有很好的對應，一般都是說更具體的。 gogogo! defense defense defense! break your leg! 等等
其实牛津词典已经把add oil这个chinglish 算作正式英语了 所以不要管Chinglish 能够交流就好了 老外一般不是太picky了
Keep it up
比如比赛的时候，在中国观众会喊 加油加油加油！在美国看比赛就没有对应的词可以喊，哈哈。 比如朋友上台表演前，我们也可以用加油，英语里也没有对应的词，唉。 很多场合都要用不同的话来代替。
@@jiaminzhu406 可能最接近加油的是 come on, 上台表演可能说break a leg, you can do it之类 表演完说bravo
