I Don't really want to talk about university now because that's work. All right, don't worry about a kavina There is you forgot your articles There is an apple There are us. No, no, there is an app on Apple an orange On the table Very long be Joseph. Hello Sorry teacher Robin. Why you think sorry the reason I'm here is to answer questions, you know, what's the best What's the best view this one? What's the difference between in normal circumstances in normal situation? I think That means the same but we would usually use in normal circumstances. That's the expression You don't really say in normal situation in normal circumstances You know, I understand more than I speak or write in English, you know, I'm not sure what you're trying to say Liran F Let me see, you know Why I understand more Then I speak Or write in English. I'm not sure you're meaning Loran try again So in this case go with means like choose I will go with blue. I choose blue. I'm checking There's a way to adjust Margins because my margins Seem to be wrong. How do I change the margins? Let's check Google It's set up. Okay. Okay. I fixed it. There we go Robin Can you give me the clue to use correct correctly in at on those are prepositions? I like to say in on and at and You know, like most people here you're looking for some easy rule to follow. No, it's complicated. It's Depends on the situation. There are multiple rules for each preposition. I'll start with at At is very good to use with time and our location Of course, we could use we use it other for other things too, you know, there's no easy rule There's so many rules. There's too many rules. There's no one rule on as good with technology in is like Inside inside something in on the computer on my phone on Technology on my laptop at six o'clock Let's meet at six o'clock at the movie theater. So time and location at Very common on with technology. There's so many rules anamary. There's hundreds of rules with just those three Prepositions I cannot say them all. There's no easy way. That's all I can say you got to learn each rule How do we know when we can use in time and on time? Good question And I've answered that before Let's make us. It's your homework. So all right. So here we have in time have all on time Let's choose the different color how about Burgundy that's for kind of red dark red Please some more in time That kind of means yeah, kind of Again before the deadline but Earlier I'm trying to think a very easy way to explain this it could be earlier and then the actual deadline and Then on time is more focused on the deadline. So please submit your homework in time We usually we usually if you're talking about deadline, we're gonna use on time in time before Teacher this is more how we've used in time. Please submit your homework in time Before the teacher gives the final grade. So The focus is on just it's not late, okay It's not late and then here submit your Again the focus is not late, but there's more emphasis on on time. Make sure you've got the time In time is usually before so before something else happens. I know I'm not giving a the best answer right now, but maybe I Would need more time to prepare but think of it as in time Before something happens and on time is you know on the on the correct time Unis what are the tips to go deep in English and start thinking it's not translating to our native? Oh, you should never even start translating. Oh, that's a nasty nasty habit those of you who have a habit of Using some translation program if you have a habit of taking text translating taking English text translating You are damaging your English so much you are wasting your time this is This is a really really bad habit if someone is translating they are not learning English They are wasting precious time. So Unis Don't waste your time with if you're translating text. Oh, this is so much damage. It's damaging and time You don't have enough time to be You know the all learning I Could I want to cry if if I if whatever I see students translate text. Oh my god, what are they doing? They're just destroying They're destroying their learning opportunities Okay, so you just stop trans every student here if you got a translation program you are damaging your English and You are you are the reason your English is not getting better So right away get rid of that And then yeah, Eunice more immersion. I think you're doing a good job Eunice, you know Try to get your entertainment in English. That's very important Well, I'm gonna get your news Something you need to do every day every day is read the news something you got to do every day and Get that in English Not in your start practicing to get your news in English If you're reading about war in Ukraine or something happening in America get that in for start training your brain Get that information in English news is something you get in English and it's probably better than your local newspaper in your own language which Has some bias and Then entertainment Get your entertainment in English if you're watching Netflix. Make sure you're watching something in English with English subtitles If you're playing games, make sure those are English You're reading English. So right here if you are reading local news in your local language You can stop that if you're watching local TV shows or Local anything in your own language. You can change that too What is the difference in using words to hesitate and waver I Wavered I don't know. I don't know the difference, but I'll check Drink some drink Okay, I got I know I know his Can't spell. Oh, what's wrong with my fingers? So hesitate is some delay. You're not sure now waiver is kind of back and forth So waiver is I'm gonna buy it. I'm not gonna buy it. I'm gonna buy it. I'm not gonna buy it and that wavering I might do it. I might not that that wavering causes hesitation. So they're very similar Wavering is a type of hesitation So hesitate. It's just I'm waiting waiting, but a wavering is I'm gonna buy it. I'm not gonna buy it I'm gonna buy it. I'm not gonna buy it. I'm gonna buy it. So that causes hesitation thigh high Leedon sorry, I understand what you say, but if I talk with you, it'd be more hard also Difficult more hard difficult also when I write I know all vocabulary work Leeran it just takes practice. You're watching me now. That's the first step It's a daily struggle. You got to work at English every day You will get better. I fixed your sentence before You are missing the articles. There is an orange an apple and a banana on the table should we use? Or are in the sentence since we're referring to or are oh You're focused If you're saying there are oranges plural apples manas Table so this is very important why why you need that article and you didn't have the article may function You're missing the most important That article so you You can't even go to the next grammar step. You're a plural There are many oranges apples and bananas on the table. There isn't there's an orange There's an apple and there is a Banana three only three items. There is one of this one of this one of this on the table Okay, may fall Mariam, what does she still got language to learn? Maybe she's still got language to learn She Still needs to learn Language so Mariam. She's she's still got language to learn. She's still on She still needs to learn some language Salami, thank you. We got a new member. Thank you very much Again, you forgot the article Layla a waiter. They didn't used to drink cold water I didn't used to work as a waiter. We didn't used to drink. Yeah, that seems fine True or false. What does that mean? I don't know if that sentence is true or false. I don't know if you slept true or false Cat hello everyone and teacher teacher Why are you doing live streaming your two channels at the same time? Ah, I am testing that today If it's I didn't know if it's possible If I can do a live stream on two YouTube channels at the same time, so I'm testing it today and Is it working? I guess it's working. Yeah, that's fine Yeah cat no problem Okay It's time it means Adjective time in time Shut up close your mouth shut up. Can you provide me equal expression? Which means? close Close your mouth. These are you know if you want someone to stop talking shut up close your mouth Be quiet some slang might be a zippin Zip like a zipper zip zip it. I think no one's in No one's in this live stream. Yeah, that looks good. Have you ever been to England? Yes. I've been there Cat teacher. I think you're not in this channel. I am here I think I'm a specialist at making Robin confused about how to explain it. Yeah, maybe you are Don't worry, okay? Well, it's hard to answer questions without preparation I think a lot of students do not do not you you students do not realize how difficult it is When you ask a question and I know the answer, you know usually right away, I know the answer But I don't know why I don't know why I know the answer, but I don't know why that's a difficult part So I have to go research and research takes time and I can't spend 10 minutes researching here So usually I give a quick answer teacher, could you please please recommend some Good English books. I don't know your level. So depends on your level it I would start with I like older books Mmm, what's a good book? I have to be very careful recommending books because People you you students will buy them and I I don't know. I'm not good at recommending books I don't know. I don't know your level cat so If you're at a basic level try to find some basic books Don't read books that are too difficult like Harry Potter is usually too difficult for language learners I came across this. Okay. He told me about kit How kept getting in the way and how he how he Kept getting in the way and how he hid in me and after I checked I guess keep getting in the way getting in the way Get in the way Oh dictionary right from the dictionary To get in the way of something means to make it difficult for it to happen Continue or be appreciated properly. So I came across he told me about kit He kept getting in the way. So he kept making The situation difficult. So that's from the dictionary Harry 300 a wrong and which one is commonly used one It is worth buying a new car it is worth To buy a new car three it is worth it buying well number three is wrong One or two you can use the the the infinitive to buy and you can use the jaren buying Both are okay. It's worth it to buy a new car. It's worth buying a new car. Those are okay, but number three It is worth it buying and that's wrong and number four it is worth it to buy Oh, it is worth it. Okay. Oh, I see where the problem is it is worth it buying it now We can't use number three. It is worth it to buy a new car number four is possible. So I would say one two four Why is Three looks very easy. It is worth it buying and I guess I guess it's possible. It's not something I would say I think maybe the answer here is they're all possible But which ones are more common for me most common would be one two four cat you gotta There's a lot of questions. It takes me a few minutes to answer Questions about 10 minutes I brush up. I brush the toothpaste on this brush. Uh, you don't brush toothpaste you You put toothpaste On the brush I gotta fix my spelling I put toothpaste You got your Toothbrush. There's my to this is my toothbrush I put toothpaste on the toothbrush Good stop that translation program Uh, Robert should I use I love making dinner? I loved him. Oh again, this is the infinitive and Jared, which are very often both can be used in the sentence equally but Sometimes they cannot be used in the sentence equally And you're going to ask me. Well, Robin, how do I know when The infinitive and the jaren can both be equally used and how can I know when they can't? There is no easy rule Sometimes well most of the time it worked I don't want to say A lot of the time it works, but sometimes it doesn't work. You have to learn each case, case by case, there's no easy rule. Anyway, for your sentences, both are okay. Okay, Kat says, I don't remember vocabulary. Well, you gotta read more and more. The best, the only way to properly learn vocabulary is reading, reading and reading and reading. This is the way to learn vocabulary if you're not in an English speaking country. Of course you can practice listening, but reading is fast. Reading is faster than listening. So if anyone's here, anyone here is really cares about vocabulary, read. So it takes me two years or 2.5 years when I teach students here in Korea, mom brings me a student and they say teach my son or daughter, Korean or English. I say, okay, and I'll say, but you have to sign a two year contract. So they will sign a two year or two and a half year contract and I say, okay, I promise after two years that they will be advanced level or fluent. And I've been doing this for 20 years and I work with these students and the first thing I do is I get them reading every day. And yeah, reading every day after two years they're gonna be advanced or fluent with probably 80% reading, 20% speaking and listening. There's no secret to English, extensive reading. Read, read and read. If you don't like reading books, you're not interested in becoming fluent. So if your goal is fluent, let's spell it. One, live in an English speaking. That's your first choice. Why is it centered here? Let's left the light. Two, extensive reading. If you don't live in an English speaking country you better be reading every day. If your target is fluent, you're not gonna be fluent without reading. It starts with reading. So if you're lazy, I don't wanna read, it takes too long. That's fine, but don't have this goal of fluent if you're not gonna do what is necessary. You don't need to be fluent. I understand. Could be intermediate, upper intermediate, lower advanced. That's okay. Layla, what is the most important thing to a YouTuber for supporting his channel? The most views, subscribers, likes or comments. The best way to support a YouTuber me or another YouTuber. If you have a YouTuber that you really, really like and maybe they're not so big, maybe they're a small YouTuber. Step one, watch the video. So, if you like the YouTuber, you gotta watch the video. All of the video, even if you don't like the video turn on the video, let it play, let it watch. This is a very important. If you're watching a YouTube's video and you watch it till the end, at the end, there's usually links to other videos. Very important that when you watch a YouTuber's video and you see a link to another video of that YouTuber, you click that link and it will take you to another video. That is very powerful. So, do that. Share the video on Facebook groups or WhatsApp. If you share the video, that's very helpful. And then, likes, hit like, comment. This is engagement, this will help. So, very important if you like a YouTuber, watch the video full. Don't turn on 10 seconds and then turn it off. You just hurt, you hurt your YouTuber friend if you watch 10 seconds and turn off the video. You gotta watch the video till the end. Okay. Now, what is a brand of car? I drive a Hyundai Monte. Sleepwalker, soul-wrenching, soul-shattering, heartbreaking, heart-wrenching. Can we say that they mean the same? I think they're all in the same family, brothers and sisters. I would have to go case by case, but my instinct right now says they're pretty, pretty close. Heart, soul-wrenching, oh wait, soul-wrenching? Yeah, I think that's, yeah, they're all the same. Sleepwalker is, I'm just gonna, I'm gonna say they're 99% of the same, the same. There might be that one special expression that doesn't use, they don't mean the same, but I can't think of them now, but when I look at that, it's the same. Mariam, she still has the brush up on English. Yeah, brush up would be an idiom, a review, kind of a review, review. And Robin, in many cases while chatting, I forget to use articles, is that a critical error? There is not a critical error, because I can remember a critical error is when I cannot understand. But in this sentence, I see banana, I understand. So it's not a critical error, but the grammar is wrong. I see, ah, banana. Critical error is when I don't understand. So if I had a sentence, banana, banana paint house. All right, this is a critical error, because I don't understand what this person is communicating, banana paint house, what does that mean? So if you forget the article, is it a critical error? No, but it is still an error, and we should try to use articles. Last week I asked one question, how to write a small paragraph. That's a little difficult to teach. I'll try to teach a paragraph in 20 seconds here. Usually a paragraph, for new students, I try to teach, think of a paragraph as five sentences. Of course, paragraphs can be longer. They can be one sentence, they can be 10 sentences, they can be 20 sentences. But to make it easy for new students, I just say, think of paragraphs as five sentences about the same topic. So if I'm introducing myself, my name is Robin. I come from Canada. I live in Korea. I like pizza, ham, nice. All right, so why is this centered? Don't center, always left the line. One, two, three, four, five sentences here. This is a paragraph. So paragraph starts with capital, you have periods, capital letter, periods, capital letter, period, capital letter, period. There is a small paragraph, five sentences. That's all I'm gonna say about paragraphs. Of course, writing a paragraph. I can't do that, this video. Hello there, hello cat. When a client says hi, I usually say hello. How can I help you? Or may I, both are all great. Anything else? Well, you know, to the best way to make an impression on a stranger is always give a compliment. So when you see, you see I walk in and you see me, you say I like your hat. This is how you start a conversation anywhere. This is how you give a compliment. Then you can say, how can I help you? So that's my advice to start a conversation. Give a compliment. Nope, no problem. There is no rush up. There's no rush up. Hurry up, go quickly, go faster. What's the, they're all synonyms. They're all very similar, rush. Rush is usually used here. I need to rush the school. And we wouldn't say hurry up here. We'd say I need to hurry to school. I need to go quickly to school. I need to go faster. That wouldn't work here. So these, these are gonna be the same, same meaning. Sleep or, okay, that was not to me. But things I need to read, teacher. Read, read what you enjoy reading. The key word here is enjoy, you like it. You like reading this. So stories, news, comic books, Twitter, Facebook. Whatever you enjoy reading, do it and do a lot of it. That's where you start. What do you like to read? What's fun, then do that. It's easy for you to bring questions from this channel and that channel. No, yeah, yeah, it's easy. It's easy. That's why I'm trying it. M-D-D-E-G-E-G-A-N-A, I gave you a thank you at the beginning of the video. I said thank you to my, my supporters. So I watched the beginning of this video again tomorrow. I sent you a message. All right, I love reading books. Good, oh, that's good to hear, cat. I get, yeah, so Mariam, same. Read what you enjoy reading. What do you like to read, Mariam? Keep doing it. It's Kit and his mother. It's Kit and his mother. It's Kit and his mother. It's Kit and his mother. It's Kit and his mother. Robin, did you ban Pallavi that time? Yes, I did. I banned Pallavi. Pallavi is a nice person, but you know, this is my work and I don't like drama at my work. So Pallavi wanted to bring in some other issues. Can't focus on them right now, right? I got to answer, what, 100 questions in an hour, so I had to ban her. Do you like hard and strange questions most answered? I like easy questions. I like any question hard or easy that I can answer in a minute. So sometimes there's questions and I know right away, so that question is gonna take five minutes. How can I, you know, that question will take five to 10 minutes to answer correctly, but I have one minute to answer that question. So sometimes that's difficult. And as you know, usually with tenses, grammar tenses, those are, you know, like at the beginning of this video we had someone asking about grammar tenses. Those don't take one minute to answer. Those take a lot of minutes to answer. Grace, I said a thank you at the beginning of the video. What's this guy? He has an advertisement? Not big enough for spam. Actually, I like reading some good English books yesterday, I was reading a novel and then I was, oh, because, okay, yeah, Kat, keep reading. I'm happy, really happy to hear your reading, Kat. Keep doing it, keep doing it, don't stop. Yeah, of course you're gonna hear native speakers say who or whom, you know, that's a kind of older English. And if you are a grammarian, but there's millions of native speakers who never use whom, they always just use who. So yes, the answer is who. So yes, the answer is yes. You will always hear native speakers who say who. Robin accepts all the gifts from his friends except from Peter, except Peter. You can use from, but you also don't need from, except both ways are okay. From or no from, the hardest part of, is that the hardest part of learning English? Is that I can, is that how can I distinguish between many synonyms of the one word? Keep reading, Laila, I'm sure you already can distinguish so many words now. Waze Modaber, hello teacher, how can I improve my pronunciation in English? Well, you need a practice partner. You can go on WhatsApp or other apps, practice speaking. The fix here in pronunciation, it starts with speaking a lot. Just try to get more speaking activities. That's a difficult thing if you don't have speaking partners. If you're a shy person, you gotta start speaking. What is the difference between enthusiastic and enthusiasm? Oh, this is a dictionary word. Grace, enthusiastic, did you check the dictionary? Enthusiastic, adjective, enthusiasm, noun. There's the difference. Come on, check the dictionary before you bring those questions to me. That's adjective, that's noun. I hope you know what an adjective in a noun is. If you need more help with those words, let me know. Grace, you should bring me two sentences. One sentence with enthusiastic and one sentence with enthusiasm. You write the sentences, I will check them. All right, thank you, Eunice. Eunice, I can see you are serious about English, so keep doing it, keep doing it, keep doing you. Sleepwalker, I think she already realized her mistake and wouldn't spam anymore. Ha, sleepwalker. That's like the fourth, that's about the fourth time. She's been spamming. Sleepwalker, I'm trying to be polite because Pallavi is young, so I don't wanna say bad things about Pallavi because she's not a bad person, but she's maybe a little sensitive, I don't know, but she tends to bring a lot of drama here and the WhatsApp group and also she sends me emails. So this is not healthy for me and her, so it's, you know, I'm not a monster, sleepwalker. If someone makes a mistake one or two times, I'm gonna forgive them, but with Pallavi is a little different, it's a little more consistent. Salame, which one is correct? It was nice talking with you, it was nice talking to you. Both are fine, both are fine. It was nice talking with you, where it was nice talking to you. Technically, there is a difference between, like your expressions, no one's gonna care. No one's gonna care if she's, it was nice talking with you or nice talking to you. Technically, there is a difference. Talk to is kind of one direction. I'm talking to you and talk with is more of a conversation. I talk to you, you talk back to me. We talk with each other, technically. But if I enjoy talking to you, every native speaker's gonna say that. And it was nice talking with you, every native speaker's gonna say that to you. Teacher, that's why I'm asking for some good English books. I, cat, I'm not good with English books. Is, are you, where are you from, cat? Do you have a library near you? Which country are you from, cat? Hello, teacher Robin. What is the best way to help us in the English chat group or speaking or not speaking? Everything. Everything. Everything. Whatever you can do every day, speaking, writing, listening, reading, whatever you can do, do it every day. Everything helps, everything. Don't just focus on one, though. Do it all. If you get many questions while doing live stream, does it help your channel or could you focus on them all? Many questions does not help the channel. I guess it does. I'm not really worried about if I get 10 questions or 20 questions that's not really, this channel I don't really focus on, right? I don't focus on this channel too much, so I'm not worried about this channel. Okay, me is gone. How do you describe the smell of blood? I am not a vampire or am I? I guess vampires would know the taste, the taste of blood. How can you describe the smell? I guess it's irons, it smells like iron, right? There's a lot of iron in the blood, so it would have an iron smell, I think. Let's do a test, I'll just cut. Iron smell. Harry 300 that you win for the strangest question of the day. How do you describe the smell of blood, Robin? Frat over, ah, okay, either her. What was your question? Stress is not the same as stress. If you're frat over something, you're just very worried about it, very concerned about it, you're focused too much on it. It could cause stress, but it's not the same as stress, it's just you have a lot of worry or concern, kind of too much. Robin, as Eunice said something while speaking, I need to use a specific word, and I know in my language, but I don't know in English. If I go there, maybe I'll be delayed. Do your best, do your best. Tran Thao, Thao from Vietnam, welcome. I don't know that word, I don't know that word. So I will, I don't know the word. So I'm not gonna ask a teacher, I'm gonna go to the Oxford dictionary, and when I go to the Oxford dictionary, then I check it here, British. I don't know if you can hear it. I don't know if you can hear that, but it says, garrulous, garrulous, American. Garrulous, same, garrulous. I've never seen the word before. I don't know where you got that. It means talking a lot. Don't know, never heard of it, but it's garrulous. What do you enjoy the most about this live stream? I don't think I enjoy live streams. That's not the word I would use. I am here, I'm trying to help, but it is work for me. Yeah, if I missed your question, just let me know. Teacher, if someone makes a mistake for three times, never forgive them. I saw your previous, that girl was really okay. Do you recall the funniest questions you got during your live streams? I don't recall. There's thousands and thousands of questions. Robin, what are a few tips you can give us to travel? Oh, now Annamarie, now I enjoy this question. See, if you talk about travel, there are questions I enjoy. When I travel, I never fly direct. This is a big problem. So if I'm going to Seoul, to London, that might be, I don't know, a 10, 11 hour flight. And I don't like these flights. I never fly direct. So when you fly like Seoul to London, you're missing a lot of part of the world. So what I like to do is I'll fly Seoul to Bangkok. I'll spend a few days in Bangkok. And then from Bangkok to Mumbai, India. And then I'll spend a few days in India. And then Mumbai to Istanbul. I'll spend a few days in Istanbul. And then Istanbul to London. And then I'm at my destination. And then I have to come back to Seoul. So from, and I'll do the same, London to Oslo, Sweden. And then from Oslo, let's go to Moscow a few days and so on. So this is my method. And why do I do this? Is because I can see, I'm still taking my journey. But on my journey, I can stop off at many places and see many places. If I just go Seoul to London, I don't see the world. I see Seoul and I see London. But when I do these shorter trips, I see the world and you know what? The shorter trips are cheaper. Because this, this flight is expensive and you can take smaller, cheaper flights. And also it's, you're saving money so you can spend more money on hotel. So I would say these little flights cheaper, cheaper. So that's one tip, never fly direct, always transfer. Okay, if you don't join, what, what do you, I really hate dictionary questions. Yeah, that's the number one I hate is canary dictionary. So a dictionary question is a question that could be answered if you just check the dictionary. So I love, so before you talk to me, I would prefer you check the dictionary and then you try to make some sentences. And then when you bring me the example sentences, when I see the example sentences, okay, then I know, okay, you took time to check the dictionary and try to make, try to make some sentences. So, you know, if someone says, what does a garrulous mean? Yeah, I'm not gonna like this. I'm not gonna like this question at all because that's a dictionary question. But if they said, this is the first time I'm making sentences with garrulous. Garrulous means talking a lot about unimportant things. So if someone asks this question, I am angry because you can check the dictionary. But if someone writes an example sentence, okay, sis. So they saw the dictionary and they came back and they try, you know, they're trying to learn. Then I like this because, and then I'll check, I like checking sentences. All right, thank you, Kat. I don't usually mix teaching and traveling. You have a grace, you need a lot of time. And you know, some people they only have one week vacation and they don't have time to, you know, you just wanna go to London. So it's the style I do, but it takes a lot of time. But I make the time. I want your life, Robin. Oh, Anna Maria, you can become freelancer anytime. And as a freelancer, you can probably make a lot of money and control your, you can become a digital nomad, right? You can work from your computer, any country in the world as a freelancer. Oh, I don't use a tour guide. Everyone's gonna be asking travel questions though. I'm gonna finish this live stream within four minutes. So don't get too excited with questions. How many countries do you visit so far? 40 plus, but you know, COVID, I haven't traveled during COVID. So I'm waiting for COVID to end and then I'll go back to travel and I'll come see some of you students in your country. I'll come visit you, but first it's gonna be Leila. I think I'll do Leila. I might go see Alyssa first because she's close to Korea, right? Alyssa's in Philippines. So I might go see her because that's just a few hours of flight. And then I'll start making my way. See Leila and I hope to see Michelle. Who else? Well, no one else has expressed interest in me coming to visit them. Don't you think transferring flights is a waste of time? What do you consider waste of time? Do Koreans like camping? Koreans do glamping as their work. I think it's a combination of glamorous plus camping. So glamping means it's not total camping. You have a campsite with a shower, electricity, you know, hot water. You're out in nature, but you have a lot of the modern things that make life comfortable. All right. This summer, there's still COVID, Leila. And I am not total vaccination. Total vaccination in Korea is three shots. I only have two shots. So it's kind of a little bit difficult for me to travel. Sorry, teacher, if I say whenever I was growing up, whenever I was growing up, okay, whenever I was growing up, I would enjoy playing computer games. It's the same as when I was young. You don't wanna say whenever I was growing up. It's when I was growing up or when I was young. Don't say whenever I was growing up. Come to Latin America. Well, yeah, that's not gonna be 2023, maybe 2024. Well, stay friends. And Sleepwalker, Sleepwalker, can I come see you? And Lolli Lolli, I guess in France. Lolli Lolli and Michelle. Yeah, if anyone comes to Korea, I'll be happy. Oh, thank you. In my thumbnail of 20 years ago, I was handsome, thank you, get. Yeah, whenever, you know, you're talking about the past. Whenever I saw a cat. So in the past, whenever I saw a cat. So every situation I saw a cat, I stopped to pet it. So every situation, whenever I saw a cat, I stopped to pet it. Ah, Sleepwalker, I'll definitely come to Russia to meet you. Is it okay to travel to Russia? We'll see in a couple of years. For me, the main advice I got today is reading books. Well, it doesn't have to be books. It could be comic books, storybooks, poems, whatever you enjoy reading, news. I bought the Bible in English. Well, Anna Maria, that's good, but you know, the Bible is difficult because that is old, old English, right? So even native speakers have trouble reading the Bible. So if you like reading it, read it, but you have to understand this is not modern English. So some of the words we do not use anymore and some of the expressions we do not use anymore. So it can be difficult if you bought the Bible, but if you enjoy reading it, you do it. Okay, I'm going to finish up. Thank you very much for watching, everyone. See you in the future. Thank you, Cat. We'll end with Cat's message. Teacher, you're still handsome. Oh, you got, oh, we're not gonna, I know, but it's okay, that sounds better. Where's Covino? He was here earlier, but he had to leave. Okay, bye everyone.
