hey guys this is love friend from UK and
she's an English teacher
five years so she's a professional
English teacher anyway as an English
letter I have a lot of questions about
English language and these two a little
questions today especially she's from
America and she's from England so
American English the English British
language so one of the things I always
get confused by is grandma of course and
especially in pens so when I was in
school I was taught that you can't
really use words like already or yet
with past tense so I'll go ahead and
just read this sentences for you guys so
can you tell me which one is more
natural for you saying okay he has
already left or he already left
he already left he already left
yeah for me probably he's already left
so he has already left my kitchen told
me that you can't say he already left so
I know they say you can't say that
that's a common thing so I'm gonna read
the sentence again so tell me what
you're not sure okay can I have a bath
or can I think about which I take it
back so usually pick about yeah I used
to think gonna have a bath there but I
just let's take a bath always yeah you
also could take it up right take it up
yeah but I don't think that's very
common in demand
so these like it's not wrong but it's
not coming so because it's not coming I
just yeah yeah take some kind of strong
take the water I think all those British
English things sound very proper to us
that's the interesting job their way
sounds like cooperating except I was sat
by the fire we don't that's wrong my
dialect
you don't say wasn't you have to say was
sitting it has to be was ing yep I was
doing why you believe me so that's
that's violent yeah I couldn't read it
[Laughter]
another one this is I hate this one so
you know everyone uses Microsoft Office
and warden to write things okay every
time I type the word traveling they
always correct my English he says I
don't need to elves it only needs one
where I've been typing something off
about work and it comes up like this is
wrong and I'm like if I go on Google
anyway is this really wrong like you
know like Microsoft Office is like no
angry read right
you are wrong adding words to my
dictionary every time it's like no I'm
like yes but I don't care this is how
yeah I'd get really annoyed every time I
have to add doors new words to
dictionary this is something that we say
both ways in Japan and stay at all
what's sweater this so this is sweater
yeah that can be a splitter with a kid
I'll show you British jump you know you
don't Bridget Jones when she has that
Christmas jumper and it's got like
snowman or a reindeer on it or something
and Ozzy has like the master of like
cook set that is a number that's a
sweater in your kid this is Shepherd
that's a Christmas jumper this this is
one thing that I really agree with us
trousers child is we just don't use that
sound so old-fashioned no you're just
I'm I'm just a learner when I first
heard Rachel say pens to me was Donna
we're so weird
none of them that I get this bias this
one do you stay at the weekend in
America nope
do you stay out the weekend yeah
specifically it's going to mention the
weekend how do you say what are you
gonna do this weekend this weekend what
are you gonna do next weekend what are
you gonna do this weekend we're gonna do
so for the weekend so you gonna have
anything at all no not at Ben American
English
I'm pretty sure another one that's super
annoying is that the spelling
differences
it cut how do you spell center Rachael
cen ter how do you spell it C and Tre we
do that what we want to be fancy the
British Way won't be fancy interesting
so America America uses British way of
spilling to make a fascist something if
you use American oil spill in to make it
fancy no I teach American English so
when I first started teaching I used to
have to check everything like wait is
this the English way or is this annoying
and then this and this and even now I
like confused in my brain which one is
it
I do that to June's English sometimes
like if Jesus says something the same
way so many times and I forget to like
corrective that it just like imprints in
my brain so when I was in college I was
staying with a foreign students and one
of them asked me where is the porch so
what's the torch to me porch is this
literally so he was looking for this
torch torch to me is like actually like
what you would walk do you have a torch
like where would I get one so this is a
porch yeah cool flat last question I'm
gonna ask you to read please Francine

beat up as well
I'm sure it's not just me anyway you can
you say yes

adidas yeah
lastly yeah Nike Nike Nike are just
people please tell me that you also see
I've got some nice shoes yeah cuz do me
a favor before in this video okay I'd
like it to pronounce this officials name

way is tomorrow thank you so much I'll
give up one in English
