Hi Greg! Awesome videos! I have a question regarding the test, could you elaborate please on sentence 5, why the correct answer is `since I moved` but not `since I have moved`? Thank you in advance :)

Thanks for the fantastic lesson

Dear Greg, you are the best teacher! Thank you for this very helpful lesson.

What an insightful lesson Greg! Thanks!

Thank you teacher, you know how to explain everything clearly, briefly and not boring! Bravo!🙌🏻🎓☘️

Hi Greg! Thanks a lot for the very clear explaining the difference between 'Simple' and 'Perfect' tenses in English! That would be of great help for learners and, of course, your lessons are pretty much understandable too! Have a good time and take care!

Absolutely brilliant class

Gracias! Que buena clase!

Hi Greg, many tks for your informative and precise explanation of the grammar issues. I look fwd to hearing from you soon, hopefully.

Thank you so much.

Thanks for this video!

Thanks so much! Grammar is what I need)

Thanks Greg🙏

Thank you!

That's just what I need.

I really like the way you explain !!!! Besides some exemples are funny! Thank you Greg!

Thanks!

Simply the best!

Thanks a lot for the very interesting content 🙏 I've learned a lot from you and still learning every time...

Theoretically English has 12 tenses, but... you can group them into 3 'narrations' (since tense is taken), and those narrations are just like tenses in every other civilised language ;) So, there's a past narration, a present narration and a future narration. Let's take the present narration: we talk about the present, so we use all four (if necessary) tenses with present in name: simple, continuous, perfect and perfect cont. Let's say we talk about moving to London: well, we're thinking about it, we want to see it again, we've already been there once. It's all related to present, it's all part of the 'present narration'. But then someone asks us about this previous visit to London. And then we change the narration - we talk about what happened when we visited the city. A normal person would use past tense, the English use 'past narration'. ;)

Each language has its own specifics, I don't want to complain - but I don't know why the English like to make things difficult. After all, we have 3 possibilities of tenses - past, future, present and of course finished and not-finished. There are about 6 possibilities of tenses to describe most things. There are other languages that simplify it more. English would then be a very easy language for foreigners to learn. For example - I was going to London (this could be for not finished, i didn't arrive to London) I went to London - (finished, simple for finished cases... ) It could be more simple.

Thank you so much for making our english learning more easier.. 💫💥

thanks, for your explanation...................

Hello Greg! The way of training is really good. It would be great if you can do a catalogue video for grammar in an order just like a course so that people could learn tense, preposition etc .. its a simple suggestion. Thanks!

Through all these years of speaking and reading English language it became a kind of spontaneous way of either writing or speaking using the different tenses . However here , Greg has simplified it on how to use them ,though there will be some mistakes specially while speaking . Languages are out of control . Thank you so much ,Greg for this outstanding lesson . You are a great teacher ( N.b / you,ve gotten 3 letters Of your name from the adjective ( GREAT ) 🎋👍😇

Hello Greg, I've been watching your channel for some time and I must say you're the best English teacher I've ever had. Just wanted to say thank you. Hope I didn't make any mistake writing this comment ;)

That's great.

Everything you express is sufficient to reach the mind of the listener. Thank you❤️ a lot❤️

FOR, also goes with present perfect. I haven’t been there for ages, I haven’t seen John for months etc.

Enjoyed your videos! Could you make a video about the word Beautiful in the same way as you did about Cold.( Discerning order of intense) thank you!

so amazing

Thank you for your introduction of the use of these expressions. On thing that puzzles me, is the use of ".. of late". Is it correct, that is a more formal form of "recently" ?

Thank you so much. Could you make a video about what the difference is between these two sounds /ɒ/ and /ʌ/, they get me confused

Hello Greg, let me ask you a question. I would like to know if it´s possible to use in some causes "interested about" or never. Thank you

Good evening.

Amazing ! Thank you so much. Nobody does it more easy than you. Thank you, thank you

A chunk we can use with this lesson is the title of a song by Van Morrison: Have I told you lately that I love you? Wonderful song, indeed!

Thank you to explain us the grammar really well and some tricks to remind it better.

To tell the truth the most clear example I have seen was in Greg's video about preposition to and for. Here's " I called to make for afternoon tea. I've reserved for 3 pm. Or something like this it doesn't matter. The both things were made in the past, but the reserving is still the truth.

Many thanks for the video, Greg! It's brilliant! :)

you have quite a strong northern accent there. Your pronunciation is colloquial.

Dear Greg , Did I hear Present Simple? At 7:18 Is it an unintended mistake or right one ...? Please tell me. From 🇮🇳 🙏

I am studying English right now.

Hi Greg I reallly appreciate your courses. For me, Who sent 1 year in Kingston upon thames university, 20 years ago... it helps me to improve. I can understand native english speaker, but speak fluently is another story. I should have spend more time in england for that. One thing i have never understood... is how to use "this that these those"... in which context. Maybe you may make a video about it... and differences between "here, other there, etc" Best regards

Hai sir how to express words in software office manners and client's please one video easy simple manner

about the quiz: I've had tons of amazing experiences since I moved to NY you said in your lesson that 'since' implies to use present perfect so I wrote : since I have moved but it is wrong (I guess that it is because I moved in the past but it doesn't work with what you said) so I am lost !!

@English with Greg - !!! ❤🍾🍾🍾❤!!!

Thank you so much, teacher. Pourriez vous faire une vidéo sur les différentes façons de prononcer la lettre "i". Par exemple, le "i" de video ne se prononce pas comme le "i" de life. Thanks, i see you from Belgium.

Could you tell why the tenses are used in the way they are used in this example? The actress speaking: - I’ve always wanted to be an actress. (Present perfect because she wanted it for a long time in the past before becoming an actress?) The speaker: - She is talking about wanting to be an actress and how she had wanted to do that for ages. She had wanted to get into acting for a very long time before working in the movie. (Why does the speaker use past perfect and not present perfect)?

Congratulations.

Hi, Greg. I personally struggle pronouncing words ending with "tevily", like "relatively" or "cally" like "theorically" and such. Can you please give us some tips on how to pronounce it well? Btw you have the best channel when it comes to english and I'd ike to thank you for all the effort you put on your videos!

Some of my colleagues some years ago and perhaps now pronounce these words wrong . I think when you want to say " relatively " you should say it like this : relat. Tvly Don,t say rela. Tvly Another word is theoretically To pronounce it correctly Say : Theo.rtkly🎋 Don,t say : theo.retikely🎗

Hello greg, i've downloaded the pdf file at least 10 times, but the site doesnt send me the book. Could you help? I have sended a message

Why is it “I don’t want a cup of tea, I HAD one ten minutes ago” but “I don’t want a cup of tea, I’VE just HAD one” seems to me they convey the same thing. In both cases it was in the past but the satie-tea persists. Surely the tense doesn’t bow to the signal word just cause it’s there?

Dear Greg! Can you please explain me why the question " Who did move to London " is wrong and the question "Did you move to London?" is correct? 🤯 Maybe you have already a video on this topic? Please help me to find it...😭

13:00 "Not true. but a good example." The same here. 🙂 "When I went to university...". it's a past that can't be fixed: the university has hurt me a lot!

The past simple represents a time period that has finished, does that also include a finished football match from today, for example? A football match that happened in the morning, but it's night now. Do we use past simple or present perfect?

Hello Greg I'm sorry but the PDF is not sent to my email!

Hey, Greg, thx a lot for your vids! You got a really nice way of explaining tricky things so I could understand them. However I still can't wrap my head around some grammatical stuff. Can you break something down for me please? The general rule states Present Simple is used when we talk about natural phenomenon and common sense facts like "The sun rises in the East and sets in the West", "Our planet spins around its axis" Just when I thought I finally got some common ground here the reality gave me a dry slap called nuances 😂🤣 So I've recently come across these examples: "The Earth is always rotating.", "The sun is always setting and always rising" I guess to say I'm confused would be an understatement here.🤣 So what's the difference bw Present Simple and Present Progressive in situations like that then??? How can I tell the difference bw one and another? Thx in advance anyway.

Hello, nice video.
