⭐ Download FREE lesson PDF: https://espressoenglish.lpages.co/free-pdf-100-commonly-misspelled-words/  ⭐ 200 Common Errors Course: https://www.espressoenglish.net/200-common-errors-in-english-course/  Hi! It’s Shayna from EspressoEnglish.net and today you’ll learn 20 words that most people spell wrong. In fact, two of them are in the title of this video!  1. The word definitely does NOT have an “A.” Some people even write “defiantly” which is a completely different word. But the correct spelling of definitely is definitely. 2. And the other mistake is your, y-o-u-r. In the title of the video it should be you’re, which is short for “you are.” The version spelled y-o-u-r is for possession - your house, your dog, your backpack. Before I continue, I want to invite you to download the free lesson guide, which actually has 100 commonly misspelled words. Click on the link in the video description and enter your email address, and I’ll send you that free PDF download.

Different future tenses for different situations in English
⭐ Download FREE lesson PDF: https://espressoenglish.lpages.co/free-pdf-different-future-tenses/  ⭐ Advanced Grammar Course: https://www.espressoenglish.net/advanced-english-grammar-course/  Let’s learn and practice future tenses in English! We have a whole bunch of ways to talk about the future in English, including: Will and won’t Going to  Future continuous Future perfect Present continuous Present simple (yes! You can use those to talk about the future in specific cases) Today I’ll explain which future tense to use in which situation - and I’ll ask you to practice with me, so get ready. You’ll definitely want to download the lesson guide so that you can review everything - click here and enter your e-mail address, and I’ll send you the lesson PDF for free. Instead of explaining things tense by tense, I’m going to do it situation by situation, because in some situations we can use multiple tenses. I’d also love to help you even more inside my Advanced English Grammar Course, where we go in detail into lots of important grammar topics. And there are lots of opportunities to put it into practice, like we did today - so that you can speak and write with good grammar.
