right so let's get started
hello
james from evid right
well it's our 100th video we've
done 99 so far it's quite amazing
actually when i first started this
business it was
with mr e we were young lads
adversaries actually um
it's back in the war
yes it was a terrible time
lots of catastrophes occurring
but mr e was a strapping young man
actually was in the service for a while
i think he was a paratrooper or
something like that
anyway
we got together and after a few
dalliances decided that we would
immigrate to canada
i'm not quite an immigrant yet i hope to
be part of this fantastic nation
mystery other
otherwise he's
done quite well for himself now
i think you've got a website or
something called ingrid
well you hired me
yes this is my real voice i
put the other one on for
the canadians who watch the video
what did you want to know well one of
the first things you were inquiring
about was
why the newspaper
it's fascinating actually
he started the paper because i can't
read you see
so mr e would write the notes on the
paper and i would start there
sometimes i would be the advert and he
would help me with it and then
other times i would just use it to hide
my shame
that's why i always thought with james
from invid he'd have to write it down
james from invid
that's the newspaper
now other people asked about
who is mr e
well i kind of told you he's
a mystery that's what it means mystery
is enigma
something strange and mysterious
i don't really know him no i met him
years ago
still a mystery to me
he's quite a
talkative child
you know a chap in england as well
it's getting rather busy here i mean i'm
at my mansion of course and all these
people are milling about
so i'll have to go soon but um
yes mr lee
we have
an engaging and quite entertaining
relationship
it's almost symbiotic in nature
he could be one of many people i've met
and i've used
an amalgam of individuals to to
produce history i mean he's brilliant
obviously
you see him teach lessons he's quite
acrobatic and quite adventurous
what can i say
he's brilliant
brilliant
well that's james from
invid.com well
you know or monica
www.ing as in english like
that's original right i'm english it's
english vadersvideo.com
i'm going to ask you to come back and
watch the rest of the video where i'll
get my alter ego
aka james esl to explain a lot of the
words of lingo that i've used in this
particular video
i hope it's been a good one for you and
i look forward to seeing you at the
website
don't forget to do the quiz all right
and i look forward to doing our 200th
and 250th video
if mr e lasts long enough he is a worm
after all
you know not an anthropod but a worm
we might actually see video 1000 well
tatar for now and
you know chip chick curio and all that
gonna look at the comics now
there's no place like home
well 100 videos
still cleaning the machine
oh getting tired
oh hi
james from invid
well that's our 100th special
um yeah saw the first part of the video
but i'm sure there are things in the
video you didn't quite catch
certain words you didn't do so what
we're going to do now is uh
um
don't look over here um we're going to
go back to the board like normal and
mystery and i will help you with some of
the words that we were learning all
right anyway let's get going
well that wraps up another
video oh god
hi
sorry about that
i'm sure you saw me at the
coffee place having coffee and then you
saw us uh in the office you know mr and
i
what the real office looks like well
we did it 100 videos congratulations to
myself and to you and to mr e
and i hope you enjoyed the last video
but you probably noticed i use a lot of
words that you've never seen before well
that's going to be your job to go back
and what i need you to do is use the
listening videos i taught to find the
words that you don't know and use some
of the other strategies to understand
and don't forget to use a dictionary
gotta do a lesson on that proper
dictionary use well while i'm at it
let's go over 10 of the words these are
the most common words that would be used
some of them are actually british
english as opposed to north american but
they're valuable
and they're most commonly used so why
don't we go over them
now mr e he loves the 100 and before i
start i want to say thank you to
sri ray
because of you and your idea about doing
something special we've done this hope
we did a good job and uh before we close
it out why don't we go through these
words shall we
now adversary adversary is like an
opponent or an enemy someone who you are
challenged by or you you know work
together on challenges so your
competitors right so i use the word
competitor or opponent someone on the
opposite side that you battle against
fight against or compete against that's
advertory catastrophe
well i was hoping this video wouldn't be
a catastrophe when we talk about
catastrophe we're talking about a bad
situation when something is bad or
not good right a catastrophe it didn't
go very well it's a catastrophe
next
it's actually almost quite the opposite
it's done quite well
if somebody says to you i've done quite
well
well means good and i've done work for
do
i'm doing well i have done a good job
usually when someone's done quite well
they did a good job or they're
successful it's the opposite of
catastrophe if you're doing work yeah
put it on
if you put it on it's usually being fake
not real i might have used the word fake
in the video i can't recall but if
someone says to you he puts it on it
means not real as in
in that case my accent wasn't real but
it also could be their attitude or their
beliefs right they think they're better
than you puts it on really they're
insecure they don't feel strong
enigma e
e is from english meaning out of x
enigma is a mystery out of the realm of
knowledge oops realm area okay if
something's an enigma it's a mystery you
don't know what it is mr e
is an enigma just another mystery
talkative
my god this is a 15 minute video i've
been rather talkative it means to talk a
lot if someone's talkative they like to
talk
maybe too much
well i have to be talkative or you
wouldn't learn anything now here's an
english word and i mean british english
chap nice chap usually like young man
right or a guy right guy he's a nice guy
he's a nice chap or chap would be like
he's a nice chap young man gentleman
right
amalgam
interesting word
it comes from dentistry because they
would take different types of minerals
and put them together into your teeth
after they used to use porcelain and
that's where people get an amalgam right
joining together so an amalgam is in
this case in the video i said mystery is
an amalgam of people
and it went different parts of people i
took and put together to create a
character for you to watch and enjoy
aka
aka three legs aka shree aka ray aka
james esl
aka means also known as it's the other
name you go by
right if somebody says also known as
they'll go james also known as
three-legged dog
right whatever it means that's the other
name people call him
and finally the lingo took my baby it's
a joke from dingo lingo is like language
but more like um
slang language do you know the lingo do
you know the language that they speak or
the slang that they're speaking right
anyway
i hope you enjoyed this 100th episode
