Ep. 85 Trip Cancelled - How to Use "Supposed to" "Used to" - Learn English Through Stories

Ep. 85 Trip Cancelled - How to Use "Supposed to" "Used to" - Learn English Through Stories

"Supposed to" and "used to" are some pretty odd ways that we use the past tense, and I offer many examples of how we used them in this short story I tell about how my wife and son's plans changed. Their trip to Alabama was canceled.  Throughout the video I also explain a few more tricky aspects of the English language.  I explain the difference between every few and every couple. How to use "fast forward" when telling a story. I describe how we use the plural form of brother-in-law. I explain how English speakers will use "reasonable when it comes to prices or paying for something. I also give a preview of the phrasal verb, "break in."   👍  Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCakDTg9dhhAsr3WmHyJDa-g/join   🇨🇦 Check out Bob the Canadian's Short Lessons channel:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmW5tmKIBrryNf5n-_A6Fmw   🔺Link to the Facebook page: https://tinyurl.com/tslpash   📕 Check out the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/learn-american-english-with-this-guy/id1492922725?uo=4   📕  Check out the podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1CMwbrEPRtk46eseEmxFOd   📕 Check out the podcast on Anchor: https://anchor.fm/thisguy4  🔺Link to the Facebook page: https://tinyurl.com/tslpash  🔺Follow me on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/y7zqp54b  🔺Aronne's Italian Podcast: ​https://podcasts.apple.com/it/podcast/lets-talk-italian-with-aronne/id1498382139  🔺My favorite videos playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZJxW7kBsjp8HR-i6VKkejrfbhVFerWbg  🔺English learning field trips: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZJxW7kBsjp9O8DIb-35wuOSEeP4eVt1Z  🔺Videos I've made with my wife, Jamie: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZJxW7kBsjp-AvQAfnNsc1n7QCNs3Cm2u  🔺All of the mini-lessons: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZJxW7kBsjp_x-GsGxbk7aQ2NGUfxZD1H --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/usbrent/support

Telling a simple story in a very casual way to help you learn how native speakers talk. I also explain the terms: reconnection fee, transformer, and why we use "like" so much when we speak.

Ep. 74 JACKED UP and TWEAK AMERICAN SLANG MINI LESSON (Bonus the Latin and Greek Root PARA)

For this mini lesson, I wanted to take a look at how Americans use the slang terms, jacked up and tweaked. I actually used both terms last week when asking my son about his hurt leg.  Thankfully, he only tweaked it. If you stick around until the end, I explain how learning Latin and Greek roots can increase your comprehension and give common words with the root, para.
