Good morning Jen, I love Shakespeare but I am struggling with his English however I noticed the same idioms you have! I read Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Othello and most recently Mackbet! By the way how are you doing? I’m ok! By the way my favorite writer loved Shakespeare too! He was a British English teacher! His name was John Peter Sloan! He lived in Italy and once he saved a young girl’s life! She was sick so we don’t need to go to the family helping them to me for her operation which was in the United States and he also helped the child in the family to learn English so they could better communicate! The child is still alive thanks to John! He passed away but he will always be in our hearts! He’s probably teaching my grandma English! We will never forget John !

Thanks a lot 😊😊😊😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

You are welcome 🤗 . I am glad you enjoyed learning these idioms from Shakespeare 🎭.

Hi Jen, a very instructive and cultural lesson. The only Shakespeare play I've read a long time ago, was Romeo and Juliet. We used three of those idioms, that I remember, which are exactly the same, they are: "all that glitter is not gold" (no es oro todo lo reluce), "in the twinkling of an eye" (en un abrir y cerrar de ojos) and “what is done is done” (lo hecho, hecho está). Both Shakespeare, 52 years old, and the Spanish Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, 68 years old, author of Don Quixote, lived at the same time and both were considered one of the great figures of literature.

Hi JeN！I'm glad to know that you're full of pep as usual．What an academic lecture！Thanks to your in-depth explanation，I've learned a lot about Shakespeare’s works and many idioms that are originated from his opuses ．I again realized his ability as a writer and also got a new understanding of his caliber as a playwright． He is said to be born in the year 1564．It's already more than 450 years since he came into existence．However，his works have never been out-of-date．I feel as if he were still alive．I know some of the idioms from today's lesson． For instance： ① in a pickle ② It's all Greek to me． ③ Wear your heart on your sleeve ④ Wild goose chase ⑤ All that glitters is not gold． Does the idiom ‘ in the twinkling of an eye ’ have the same connotation of ‘ in the blink of an eye ’ ？ I have read three works by Shakespeare that are translated into Japanese． ① Marchant of Venice ② Romeo and Juliet ③ Hamlet I like ‘ Marchant of Venice ’ the best．It is kind of cynical and tragic，on the other hand， it's humorous to some extent．I'd like to read these masterpieces in English sometime soon． By the way，I've also learned the expression ‘ hunk of junk ‘ from your account．It's quite rhythmic and easy to memorize． The Winter Olympics 2022 in Beijing have begun．It's good to see top-notch performances by elite athletes from all four corners of the world except for hot or warm countries． I was surprised to know that Mikael Kingsbury was not able to get a gold medal in men's mogul skiing ．As you may know ，Kingsbury was on the top of a winner's podium in Pyeongchang Winter Olympics four years ago． I believe he has the possibility to become a gold medalist again because he is still young．And in the long run，he will make a ‘ mogul ’ of Canadian Olympic Committee✌．Have a good one and take it easy！ Ikuo from Japan．

Wonderful video - thank you Jen.

Love it! Thank you Jen! I know two of them: "there is method for my madness" (from Hamlet), but I am not sure we still use it or not; The other one is "too much of a good thing"

Hello Hoàng Học 😁. Thank you for your nice comment ☺️. I hope that everything is going well with you in Vietnam 🇻🇳 ✨.

Hhhhhhhhh 😁, it was good for me to repeat listening to this video again. You seam like a very play practicing on the theater when you talk about parting at the very end where I couldn't observe it in the first time. Actually parting it too hurting, it hurts me too, last time was yesterday when the two years working cleaner was going to leave for going home. For Shakespeare I wish I could start my life again for the very beginning to read books in English as much as possible as I believe they wasted our precious time in lies and somethings wrong. By the way how to express regret using one expression from literature's books ? Shakespeare also is very famous in my country, we always hear about him but never been taught about his rising and nor even his picture. Edieu...

You're amazing dear Jen. You explain every thing thoroughly and clearly. I've watched many of your videos. Thanks a million. Please make a video about 'essay writing' and 'suggest vs recommend' as well. I enjoy your channel.✌👌🌺

Useful video expecting more idioms Thanks Madam

Great Job, could we meet on Zoom for a lesson on Shakespear?. I am a student of English Literature from the Middle East

It is hard for me to read traditional books, it's all Greek to me :) We also have a similar sentence with the same meaning as the first sentence in Farsi.

Good baby 👍

Hello Sharifullah ☺️. Thanks for watching and for your comment. 'On' is correct, however many native English speakers would also say 'to'. When talking about some kind of audio / visual media generally you should use 'on': on the internet, on the radio, on tv, on the website, etc. If you're talking about print media usually you should use 'in': In a book, in a magazine, in the newspaper, etc. I hope that helps 🤗.
