hello everybody welcome to Vancouver and I want to wish you a Happy New Year
Happy New Year so happy that you could come so it's we were going to originally
go up grouse mountain but there were so many people there we decided not to and
I'm happy to share this moment with you here on New Year's what time is it in
your part of the world is it already 2018 because here it's still what time
is it 11 o'clock in the morning so we still
have some time and I can already see there are some people coming in hello

Morocco coffee right now Abu Abu Dubai in the house we've got so many people in
the house 10:00 p.m. so you still have a little bit of time before New Year's
we're doing the countdown to New Year's Eve here in Vancouver and Moroccan
American tea not Moroccan coffee I thought that they had some really nice
sweet Moroccan coffee something like that and well we could do a quick lesson
today and if you didn't have a chance I have a new lesson that I put on YouTube
yesterday it's about American pronunciation how to
speak American pronunciation how to speak American English fast how to say
things very quickly and I also talk about New Year's resolutions in that
video I talk about what are your plans for 2018 and probably you're thinking
Steve it's New Years Eve I don't want to think about my plans I want to have a
good time have some good food maybe something to drink
okay my new year's resolution for 2018 well definitely is going to be to keep
in shape get in shape and another resolution while there were many but
there was get in shape there was lose some weight I gotta lose
some weight maybe a little bit other New Year's resolutions any other New Year's
resolutions oh I've got to hang out more with my friends I got to hang out more
with my family I remember those were some other New Year's resolutions where
am I I am this is called the Cleveland dam I actually filmed here on YouTube
that was seven years ago and Here I am again this place is eternal it never
changes and you can see the mountains behind me for anybody who is in a part
of the world like most of North America East Coast they are having a very cold
I don't know if you saw but in New York Times Square it's going to be
exceptionally cold something like minus 23 degrees Celsius tonight here in
Vancouver we kind of escaped the cold it's 3 degrees Celsius you can see I'm
not wearing gloves look mom no gloves and this is Vancouver where the grass is
more or less green and the snow is on the mountains so we have more control
over the snow over the winter and yeah yeah the air is fresh my lesson for
today is the difference between high and height we don't have cold weather in
Saudi Arabia I know that but thanks for sharing yeah
hi in height so you can see that the mountain behind me in the background
there is quite high and you could say the height that's the nail and the
height of that mountain is what maybe 2,000 2,000 feet more or less and when
you get up that high you can see that the snow stays on top of the mountains
mm-hmm and another one is way and wait so you can say the verb how much do you
weigh and what is your weight so be careful with weight and weight and high
and height another one you want to be careful of is when you're asking about
someone's height we don't say how high are you we say how tall are you how tall
are you so I guess for people we could say tall you're tall how tall are you
let me know in your comments I'm 1 meter 82 centimeters but for a mountain
because it's not a person usually we would say that mountain is very high I
guess you could say it's a tall mountain I guess that would work too I I would
say hi it sounds a lot bigger 5 9 oh we're getting everybody's everybody's
height here so Alex Piero is 5 9 5 feet Oh
Mohammed you're not seven feet Mohammed if you're seven feet I bet you're a
basketball player 1 meter 72 so that's that's what like 5 foot 5 foot 11 and
it's not 5 foot 11 yeah mrs. Ford is saying no it's not 5 foot 11 mrs. Ford
mrs. Ford say a quick hello hello that's mrs. Ford in the background there she's
kindly holding the camera for me because I forgot my stick and Kasim in at home
did I almost speak Portuguese in Gaza see this is what happens I also speak
Portuguese and sometimes I will use some colorful language from Portuguese Rio de
Janeiro's well from Rio de Janeiro that's cool and pocket somebody's from
okay so I think they have mountains like this in Pakistan going back to the so
Ferris is 1 meter 70 okay yeah and we have so many people from so many
different parts of the world so I have a lot of videos planned for 2018 we're
going to be doing a lot more videos on location here in Vancouver and I hope
that you've enjoyed my videos so far this year in 2017 so far it's almost
over force of habit and I hope to see you guys in 2018 Yap misses for tonight
lady and I were going to have breakfast believe it or not we haven't had
breakfast yet mm-hmm so yes somebody just asked me yes this is Vancouver so
we're going to have breakfast now but I just wanted to say Happy New Year I hope
that you guys have a wonderful 2018 and I will see you soon bye for now
mrs. Ford is showing a little bit of the view ha nice view maybe show up that way
too
quite nice yes we've got a little bit of cloud it's like a painting here today
very picturesque we were originally gonna go up the mountain but it was
packed it was loaded with people there was a huge lineup and we thought well
we'll go another day when there aren't so many people and it's easier to film
okay everybody so happy new year and I have to figure out how to turn this
thing off how do I do that I always forget there should be a button here
