Nice way of teaching! I can actually hang on to the information I learn.

[HeyPusa]

[HunrYBro]

Your a genius.

what about if we say: Port means :Location/place so transport would mean change location, export: out of 9location), import, in/into (location), passport, to pass a place.. however I know that portable means carry-able in other words mobile, couldn't it also mean place-able in other words can have more than one place/lacation. The french verb porter means to carry, couldn't it also mean to place or displace. Port=Carry Port=Place or Port=Displace, I think they all fit. Plz reply, THANX 4 THE VID

[amcheli]

what about arabic, there are many many words that are originated from arabic...

[WindowsIP]

@amcheli Hey man I thinK this is not our period NO ONE CARE ABOUT ARAB CULTURE

BECAUSE THAT I'M TRYING TO LEARN SOME ENGLISH LESSONS

"FREE ARAB"

[amcheli]

@WindowsIP I said there are many words in english that are originated from arabic, there are over 8,000 words, like Home, House, talk, walk, arsenal, alchemy, cipher, gazel, candy, Hospital and democracy etc....We should not ignore that over 8,000 and some linguists say around 10,000 words are from Arab/Persian/Indian origins but came into english via Arabs...if you want to ignore this fact then you should stop learning english or at least don't learn the arabic ones....seems fair to me.

You used 'passport' as a noun in 'Have you got your passport mate?' and then defined it as a verb, which it isn't.

Poor video.

@Meanman332 Get a life

[amcheli]

@Meanman332 Hi there! ok what about if I say: I am going to SLEEP. here SLEEP is a verb, ok but when I say I had some SLEEP then it's a noun here. open for corrections.

[Meanman332]

@amcheli Yes, the word 'sleep' is both a noun and a verb, as are plenty of others. However, we're talking about the word 'passport', which is only a noun. He defined it as a verb.

I already knew what those words mean. I'm Italian and the Italian for those words is: importare, esportare, passaporto, trasportare.
