It's so sad to see all these complaining twats. Really, if you think that the video contains mistakes, just say so without being rude. Something constructive might actually come of it.

@punchingpower your so fuckin right-... what fly? wtf is that....i'm an english teacher and i'm sorry but learn english before you try to teach it..... i totally agree with ya

@gringoderengo Thanks for watching and for commenting. From one teacher of English to "another", shouldn't the pronoun "I" always be in upper-case, as should the e in English? And, do you mean by "i'm an english teacher" that you are a teacher who teaches English, or an English person who is also a teacher of the English language? Your first expletive also needs a "g" ending, or an apostrophe.

Anyway, whatever you are, I appreciate your taking the time to comment on my work.

Best wishes,

Richard

WHAT DO YOU MEAN "WHAT FLY" it's what flies..... sense you don't have a subject, it is taken as a third person such as who playS soccer? not who play soccer. lets teach the right way please... it's hard to be a teacher but we need teacher for second language learners your teaching as if every second language learners know what your talking about...or is it for english kids? that's not a good way to teach....think if you were learning another language is this the way you want to learn??? see ya

I hope this helps.

punchingpower: English (and other languages) have sentences with SUBJECT + PREDICATE. The SUBJECT does an action; the PREDICATE is all of what the SUBJECT is doing.

English sentences have SUBJECT + VERB + OBJECT structure. Sometimes an OBJECT isn't obvious. Watch the video at about 6:40. The OBJECT receives the action. A VERB and OBJECT make the PREDICATE.

A prepositional object is at the end of a prepositional phrase.

YouTube cuts videos at 10 minutes, ergo the abrupt end. Hope this helps.

It was a really good class!

[exodo200]

It was a really good lesson!! Thanks

[KevJJ888]

You put a lot in this one video. Maybe too much? (Including the mini-lesson on apostrophes was extra).

A subject noun is not only "what the sentence is about" -- that can sometime be confusing -- but also the person or thing DOING the action (verb).

@KevJJ888 Thanks for commenting.

Excellent lesson!!!

[NewBrazdolph]

hmmm...is it compliment or..complement? i thinkit might be complEment, rather than complIment....?

[Linguaspectrum]

Thanks for that. I missed this one. It is of course complement in this context.

Compliment has a different meaning - to praise someone for something.

I have added an annotation to the video to highlight this point.
