I regret not having listened to this rejuvenating lecture. Lots of adoration from Southern India. Annepu shyam an English teacher from Andhra Pradesh of Southern India
I regret not having finished watching this video last week. Having learned English for quite a long time, I can say your videos have very good contents. I regret not having watched your videos earlier.
Having watched this video, I can say that you are one of the best teachers of English. thank you for this lesson. I regret not having discovered your channel before that.
Even though having watched a lot of videos on this topic in the past , I couldn't understand the necessity of this simple grammatical point until I watched this video on TH-cam.
Thanks for sharing. I admitted to having learned ‘past participle ‘ is difficult. It is Advanced and last part of the English’s grammar. So if someone had lots of problems about elementary and intermediate grammars, Past participle would be very confusing.
That's extremely helpful. Thanks a lot. I'm your hundredth comment. You're the one of the best teachers I've ever seen (I just need to practice the present perfect tense and that's why I have written this sentence)
@@paulandoh1184 I don't think this is correct. A gerund phrase does not function as a predicate. "I regret not having a English teacher like you before" is correct. "Having" here is functioning like a verbal noun, not a present participle, and thus does function as a predicate which is what is required in this case: I regret + SOMETHING (direct object).
Thank you sir for having podcasted This informative lesson! I do regret not having commited myself at English subject earlier. I'm sorry to having spent time in playing social game too much instead. Right? Once again Thanks for this structure!
The grammar of English language is easy to learn ,but I just remember some common grammars of English for using in communication. The other ones I can't remember them at all. Really grammar English has a lot.
1. Having lived in New York for several years... 2. From having lived in New York for several years... What is the difference between 1 and 2?? Is option 2 a better alternative?? Thanks for your answers.
@Raighi Pinheiro The instructor here is not correct. "I regret not finding your channel earlier" is correct. "I regret not having found your channel before" is ungrammatical. I can explain if you wish.
@Andrayoma "Having found your channel" is a gerund phrase. You can also think of it as the "present perfect participle". For example the present participle of "to take" is "taking; the past participle of "to take" is "taken"; the simple past tense of "to take" is took. The "perfect participle" or gerund is "having taken". When one says "I regret...", the sentence goes like I + regret + something (direct object in the predicate). A predicate is the verb and its complement (which includes the notion of a direct object). The object cannot be a participle. When we say regret + (not) finding, this is correct because 'finding' is a verbal noun. A verbal noun can function as an object. Do not understand 'finding' here to be the present participle. I can give you another example. "I enjoy singing". I + enjoy + something. What? -> singing. 'Singing' here is not the present participle of "to sing", it is a verbal noun: (the act of) singing. The instructor in the video has illustrated many examples of the gerund, which are correct. The one example I believe is not correct is the "I regret having said that". It should be "I regret saying that", or if you want to be wordy, "I regret my saying that". "my saying that" turns into an object so to speak (my something). Is this clear? I can explain again if you wish. Again, the idea is that a verbal participle cannot be a object in a sentence. This is true for other languages like French and German.

you are absolutely the best ever. i just watched r video, I can tell I learnt a lot from here. i just subscribed to your youtube channel. greetings from Honduras.
Thanks so much for your lesson!! It's really helpfull!! N I hope you can make more videos for us! 🤩😀 God bless you🙏 I like to say take care of your health
Hi teacher, I don't know what your name is but I was watching and listening to your video and a doubt came out to my mind and that is ; I know that after a preposition, a gerund must be used, like in this sentence ; - He admits TO having done it But; -" He admits having done it " (without preposition) sounds natural and correct to me. Well I don't know if I'm wrong or right, so would you please be so kind to clear it up for me, I mean, explain it to me please, thanks in advance for the answer. Well I don't wanna be arrogant or a wise guy but I understood everything else you explained and I kinda already knew it, that's the only doubt I've got and let me tell ya, you explain perfectly well.
I have been looking for this form of sentence for a very times I have just found your channel. This seems like it encourages me to speak it. I just have a question when you write two sentences ( English is a difficult language. Having said that, a dedicated student can learn over time) Is it like ( English is a difficult Language. Therefor it has said or it has been said that only a dedicated student can learn it over time)?
First time I watched your video. I liked it very much. I have been watching various English learning videos for last 4 months, but I happened to see your video now only . How can we know about good teachers, unless TH-cam sends proper information.
