how about get to = have to as in "I get to go"? Thanks

[learnamericanenglish]

@jakalii -- You mean "gotta go." I think I made a video on this. In an uncontracted form it's "I have got to go." Then, "I've got to go." But in spoken English many people put "got" and "to" together to form "gotta" which isn't a real word, but you hear it a lot: "I've gotta go," or "I gotta go." Hope that helps.

Thank you for all your videos. I am a beginner, I would like to follow the best rules to learn English quickly and speak automatically. So, I hope you show me please how can I start to learn this language? And by which method may I start? Thank you once again.

@abuhucem -- If you go to my website, start on the Blue Level and work through all of the lessons. Or if the Blue Level is too easy, start on the Red Level.

I don't know how explain it but on sound your talking is the most clear among other on-line teachers. On my opinion and on my hearing. Since latest time I have been hecking your lessons constantly. And last moment It would be great to get some information, the more widened the better, about marks (using them and etc). Thank you from RU.

@mmango65 -- Would you like a video about punctuation (marks)? I can add that to my list.
