I have an issue with the phrase "why not". Especially in the way you used it. Please, never say "why not" if someone is asking you to be his/her boy-/girlfriend. "not" is a word with a negative aspect to it. Don't be negative and use positive phrases like "yes, of course", "yes, I want to" or anything that doesn't implement a word which is usually used to negate something. (please correct my grammar if needed. I'm obviously not a native English speaker, but I'm pretty sure this applies to many languages.)

This is simply the best KZread channel to learn English. Congrats from Brazil!

The problem with "Ok" is it gives non-native English speakers the false idea that it is a generic, "one-size-fits-all" term, when in fact it can take on different meanings depending on the context in which it is used, particularly when speaking directly to a native English speaker. You are an amazing teacher. Congratulations from Brazil!🇧🇷

I love this kind of classes. Natural and useful

I am an Arab and I do not know English well, but I have improved a lot because of you ♥

Your "very" video was great. I stopped using the word, "very," inappropriately. Back then I would have said your video is very good, now I say it's great. Thank you for this "okay" video. It's great!

It’s not ok to start a lecture without saying “ hi James for ingVid”. Thanks a lot for your great effort in this video. Greetings from Iraq Baghdad.

Hahaha love this guy! Born in Greece, ill have to admit , my English improved thanks to you! I appreciate you😁

It wasn't ok, it was brilliant!Thank you😍

Excellent explanation, I wish everyone could really understand the meaning and messages of this and other words, thanks for sharing your knowledge 🙂

English is my first language and Spanish my second. In Spanish we use the word "ok" a LOT too. Your video challenged me to stop using it when I am speaking Spanish as well as when I am speaking English. This is going to force me to expand my vocabulary in both languages. Thank you!

Best teacher ever, I'm a C1-C2 but I just come because this also helps me to teach my native tongue to foreigners. 💕

Thanks teacher I'm becoming brilliant in English language now. 👍

Love the way you teaches… Is it Okay? Absolutely ❤️

Amazing teacher! Great explanation! Very useful expressions to know!

You are the best English teacher who I watched on the internet! Please, keep helping us with your knowledge.

Love how James explains any concept!

It’s his witty personality that made me subscribe! Great channel!!! Thanks

Ciao da Italia 🇮🇹 Great job James! 😚 I would definitely add 'awesome' and 'amazing'....two words that Canadian native speakers say all the time 😂

The true story at the beginning of your video; Are you sure that your friend was from Spain!? Because "Baleh" is OK in Persian language! BTW, love your informative videos!

English is not my native language, I'm learning and still not fluently using English (listening & speaking), but amazingly I can understand all your teaching, without captions. You are a best English teacher

"Go ahead" as a response to " How is the weather?" shows the person is not interested in a converstion beyond what is necessary. Hats off to the instructor. He presentation is brilliant!

I know you might not see this but i finally started too get serious about changing my life I live with my parents I’m 22 years old going nowhere with my life so I’m I’m trying hard so I can become wealthy and move out so what I should say is thank you this is my first step too my 5 year plan for myself people like you will change this world

Oh hey Long time no see James Keep up the good work You're a great teacher I mean it Been watching your videos for a long time

Thanks Alot James❤ I start to improve my english until the end of the year (for 4months) and i'll come back to this comment after 4 months

wow!!!! you are my favourit teacher love you sir from core of my heart❤️❤️

I have been watching your videos lately starting with gaining more vocabularies after I watch your videos about steps on how to learn English. Here's my take on the 2 questions 1. Can I call you later? 1.a. Sure, anytime around 7-9:30pm 1.b. Absolutely, but text me first. 2. How was your day? (This one is from my experience as an ESL teacher & we ask this questions to our young students & now I know why the company wants us to sing a nursery rhyme to it.) 2.a. I'm good 2.b. I'm great 2.c. (bonus, because its part of the lyrics) I'm wonderful. question number 2 is so great & you're right, these answers could help people to be open up in a conversations, much alone for a young learner of English Language. Thank you so much for this & stay safe.

Absolutely a truly magnificient Teacher you're Mr. James.

i got it from now on its fantastic i pretend like natives. thank you teacher for this lesso. 1. no problem you can call me any time 2. my day was brilliant

what a lesson...what an explanation....thank you so much Mr James for these brilliant videos ❤💯💯💯

I love the way you teach us like we're at the classroom.

Greeting from Brasil🇧🇷🙏

Hi Teacher:Stop saying "okey" ok! Me:Okey,lol

Okay opens more convasation or rather communication. Okay is formal but Ok doesn't well come formal socialisation it discourages a go ahead. Okay, is brilliant. I GOT IT. IS AMAISING TO HAVE A GREAT TEACHER JAMES.

It's good to have you back James! :)

Your technique is fantastic! I've watched three of your videos back-to-back, and I still want more!

I luv the way he mimics; it's interesting.

I love your style, man, you did great job for English learners! Thank you !

this man is so great at teaching i remember my english teacher to you

Interesting that word Ok became international. And i can repeat all this lesson in my own language, and it will be still right in most of parts.

Happy and simple !😊

« OK, OK, OK, OK, OK !!! » 😅 Joe Pesci in LETHAL WEAPON. 😉 In case you ever wondered how many times Joe Pesci says OK in Lethal Weapon 2 - JUST LETHAL WEAPON 2 - it's 105 times. If you break it down for Lethal Weapon 3, Pesci said OK a total of 88 times and for the less-than-average Lethal Weapon 4, Pesci said OK a total of 82 times - making for a grand total of...276 times across three films. So that's 276 times that Joe Pesci has uttered the words OK on film with Mel Gibson and Danny Glover nearby. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍

Stop saying "okay"! Me: Okay.

You are great teacher 👌 & you can be great actor. 🙂

Okay James.
