I just want to say, I love and appreciate your lessons so much! since I’m a college student in China and preparing my GRE test which is relatively formal, or say rigid, so I listen to your “fun english class” everyday on my iphone as a complement to my listening. I want to be a VIP member but I didn’t have a credit card…… I think i will get one for paying the VIP soon ^.^
wish you happy everyday!

You are absolutely right. There are quite a few words that I only heard of them but never use them. The words are just not on my mind when I could use them. I think it may be due to that I do not really “understand” them.

You are so right. I studied English in Russia to become an English teacher, now I moved to the USA and I can tell how I do not use lots of words that I do understand when someone else says them. I guess for foreigners it’s all the time better to be on the safe side and use some neutral phrases because saying something extraordinary may put them in a “laughable” situation. Thanks a lot guys! Keep up the good work!

As soon as i was in the public office to apply for driver license, i realized that i had forgetten my ID at home, and no chance to apply because of this. I got really angry with myself and the situation was totally laughable.

Hey guys! It is great that you are trying to help us on learning some original phrases which are actually can not be learnt by studying with laughable English learning books.
