03:11 | Facebook facebook . Haikou Tianyi . Hello Lueder jo jo | |
03:16 | ahmed Hello everybody mine old this . Hello . Thank | |
03:20 | you . That's very nice . Alright , everybody's here | |
03:22 | . Let's get rolling . Let's start with countable noun | |
03:27 | is today accountable now . Where's my pen ? Okay | |
03:30 | , so we're going to begin today's lesson with countable | |
03:34 | noun and uncountable noun . I am not going to | |
03:37 | talk in today's lesson about uh the like how about | |
03:43 | the details of countable noun and uncountable noun . If | |
03:46 | you want some details about countable and uncountable noun . | |
03:51 | I have some videos on the english class Youtube channel | |
03:54 | . So check those out upward . A link in | |
03:57 | the Youtube description after today's lesson . So you can | |
04:00 | check that out . Okay , let's go . Uh | |
04:03 | Good . Lots of people are saying hi new people | |
04:06 | . Ashwini , great Shiva . Hello . Good , | |
04:08 | good , good , good . Everybody who is new | |
04:10 | is now saying hello , Fantastic . Thank you new | |
04:12 | people . Well , lots of new people are saying | |
04:14 | , hi , thank you . That's cool . Okay | |
04:17 | , let's start talking about making comparisons with now sounds | |
04:22 | . So I want to cover two groups . Countable | |
04:27 | , announced a quick review . A countable noun is | |
04:30 | now and we can count with 123 Like we add | |
04:35 | an S to the end of the noun to make | |
04:39 | it accountable , like markers or teachers or computers and | |
04:44 | so on phones . These are countable notes . This | |
04:48 | is important when we're making comparisons and in other situations | |
04:53 | too . These are the patterns we use to make | |
04:56 | comparisons with countable noun . The very basic patterns . | |
05:01 | So I'll go through these examples and these patterns today | |
05:05 | . But please in the chat or in the comments | |
05:08 | . If you're not watching live , send me your | |
05:10 | example sentences . If you're watching live , I will | |
05:12 | try to check , I would try to check you | |
05:14 | live . There's a lot that come in now . | |
05:17 | So let's review . We use more plus plural noun | |
05:21 | when I say plural noun here . I mean the | |
05:25 | noun plus S . So for example if it's marker | |
05:29 | , I use markers , Plural means more than one | |
05:33 | . Yeah . So more markers than for example , | |
05:38 | if I want to express a comparison where one thing | |
05:42 | there is not like fewer . So the quantity is | |
05:46 | smaller of one thing than another thing . I use | |
05:51 | fewer with countable noun . This point right here , | |
05:55 | many native speakers make mistakes with this . They use | |
05:58 | less with countable now . Please use fewer . So | |
06:02 | for example , fewer students than me . He has | |
06:06 | fewer students than me . Okay , so this is | |
06:10 | a key point for everyone to practice if you want | |
06:15 | to express equal equal amounts of something . So A | |
06:21 | and B are the same amount , the same amount | |
06:25 | . You can use this as many plural noun as | |
06:30 | so this as is on both sides . Yeah , | |
06:34 | like he has as many students as me . So | |
06:39 | this expresses equal levels , equal levels . Finally this | |
06:45 | last pattern here , not as many plural noun as | |
06:51 | not as many plural noun at this expresses that one | |
06:56 | thing , the quantity of A , the quantity of | |
07:00 | A . So let's use markers again . Let's say | |
07:03 | I have or rather um I think I have an | |
07:05 | example here let's use this one . He doesn't have | |
07:09 | as many shoes as me for example . So this | |
07:12 | is expressing this is a different way to express . | |
07:15 | I have more shoes than he does . So there | |
07:19 | are a few as you can see . Maybe there | |
07:22 | are a few different ways we can express a comparison | |
07:26 | . We can use a negative , we can use | |
07:28 | a positive . It's up to you to choose . | |
07:31 | Let's look at some more examples . This one it's | |
07:34 | kind of hard to see the colors , isn't it | |
07:36 | ? I have more books than you . Another key | |
07:40 | point I noticed with learners , many learners do not | |
07:44 | put this s at the end , please clearly pronounce | |
07:47 | and make sure to spell it with the s . | |
07:50 | With your countable noun . Yeah . I have more | |
07:53 | books than you . We have fewer plants than the | |
07:58 | neighbor . We have fewer plants than the neighbor . | |
08:02 | And again , he doesn't have as many shoes as | |
08:05 | me . Another note with this negative pattern . This | |
08:09 | not as many as pattern this . Not when I | |
08:14 | say not . Sometimes you'll see maybe this pattern directly | |
08:20 | , but this example the knot is here . He | |
08:25 | does not have . So this not is connected to | |
08:28 | the verb . Yeah . So this is just a | |
08:31 | basic negative pattern here . Okay . Um , someone | |
08:38 | says I'm trying to make a sentence and I don't | |
08:41 | know which now onto you . So just think think | |
08:44 | of a noun and think , okay , is this | |
08:46 | accountable now or an uncountable now ? Just try . | |
08:49 | Just try start by trying . Okay , I see | |
08:54 | lots of people on facebook saying hello , welcome , | |
08:57 | good morning . Mr Alicia . Please use miss . | |
08:59 | Please use myths for girls . Okay . Um , | |
09:03 | other examples . Salma says he has fewer friends than | |
09:07 | me . Good examples . Yeah , She she has | |
09:10 | more pen , pen . So when you use accountable | |
09:13 | now and use the plural form pens . Pens . | |
09:16 | Don't forget this . S at the end . Okay | |
09:21 | . All right , let's continue to uncountable noun . | |
09:24 | So uncountable noun are now that we do not count | |
09:28 | with a number , like we don't say for example | |
09:32 | at one time . Well , okay , sorry , | |
09:35 | When we talk about units of uh like minutes and | |
09:38 | hours , time is uncountable or like air is uncountable | |
09:44 | . These are things we use units with smaller units | |
09:47 | with . Again , I'm not going to talk in | |
09:49 | detail about these two grammar points , so I'll put | |
09:53 | a link to this information in the Youtube description . | |
09:58 | Okay , So when we use uncountable noun is to | |
10:01 | make comparisons , we use these patterns more noun than | |
10:08 | something . So you'll notice this one is the same | |
10:11 | as accountable for . Um Yeah . So that's easy | |
10:13 | to remember . However , this one when you use | |
10:16 | an uncountable noun and you want to express that something | |
10:22 | , there's not as much of something or there's the | |
10:25 | quantity is smaller . We use less less . This | |
10:29 | is different from countable noun ones where we use fewer | |
10:33 | fewer countable . Knowns less uncountable noun . So less | |
10:39 | time than less money than and so on . But | |
10:42 | not fewer . Okay then a couple more patterns to | |
10:49 | express that two things are equal as much noun as | |
10:55 | . So he has as much time as me or | |
10:59 | she has as much money as me . So this | |
11:03 | pattern expresses that to amounts are equal , they're equal | |
11:08 | , they're the same . Okay . And finally , | |
11:12 | to make a negative the kind of the negative version | |
11:16 | of this second pattern , not as much now as | |
11:21 | something . So my boss does not have as much | |
11:25 | free time as me maybe . Okay , so let's | |
11:29 | look at some example sentences that use this grammar . | |
11:33 | First one I have more time than you please notice | |
11:39 | . There is no s at the end of this | |
11:41 | time , because time is an uncountable now . So | |
11:45 | , no ? S here , baldwin says Alicia has | |
11:50 | more hair than me . Good . That's a really | |
11:53 | funny example . Okay , uh , next one is | |
11:56 | he has less money than his boss . He has | |
12:02 | less money than his boss . Okay , so , | |
12:05 | again , money ? No ? S at the end | |
12:08 | of this , because money is uncountable . Okay , | |
12:13 | another one , I made a kind of creative example | |
12:16 | sentence here , You have as much bread as the | |
12:21 | bakery down the street . So , this is a | |
12:24 | situation where you arrive at a friend's house for a | |
12:28 | party or event . They have lots of bread . | |
12:30 | And you want to make a funny comment . You | |
12:33 | have as much bread as the bakery down the street | |
12:38 | means that you and the bakery have equal levels of | |
12:41 | bread . That sounds kind of funny . So we | |
12:44 | can use these sorts of comparisons to make creative statements | |
12:48 | to . So , maybe it's not exactly , but | |
12:51 | we just want to express something creatively . We can | |
12:55 | do it like this . Okay . Some of you | |
12:58 | are writing some adjective comparisons , which is great . | |
13:01 | We're going to talk about that later . All right | |
13:05 | . Alright . Some other examples , Michelle says Alicia | |
13:10 | has more pens than me , maybe . Okay , | |
13:13 | good . Nice example , sentence uh I'm looking for | |
13:16 | your other example sentences on facebook . Someone says , | |
13:19 | what's her name ? Anyone know ? Yes , My | |
13:21 | name is Alicia . So , okay , let's go | |
13:24 | to johanna says is bread Uncountable . Yes , bread | |
13:28 | . We don't say one bread . Two breads . | |
13:30 | Uh We use the counter word loaf for bread . | |
13:34 | One loaf of bread . Two loaves of bread . | |
13:37 | Again , I will put a link to some videos | |
13:40 | about Countable and Uncountable Now description . Okay , let's | |
13:44 | take a break . Oh , ma fu says why | |
13:46 | do we use have with he when he is the | |
13:49 | third person ? Can you give me an example ? | |

14:54 | to the next part . I'll show you today's lesson | |
14:56 | boards . If you want to take a screenshot , | |
14:59 | please get ready . Here we go . Boom . | |
15:01 | Okay , so we talked about now knows how to | |
15:04 | make basic comparisons with downs . Now we're going to | |
15:08 | talk about adjectives . We're going to talk about short | |
15:11 | adjectives . There are different rules for short and long | |
15:15 | adjectives . Okay , many of you are asking questions | |
15:18 | about countable and uncountable announces this now accountable . Is | |
15:22 | this not an uncountable again , I'm going to put | |
15:24 | a link in the description for you to check that | |
15:27 | will hopefully answer your questions and this is slightly different | |
15:30 | topic than today's lesson . Alright , short adjectives , | |
15:36 | Let's go . Let's talk about short adjectives . Okay | |
15:41 | , onward onward onward . I don't seek other questions | |
15:45 | . So here we go . How to make basic | |
15:48 | comparisons with short adjectives with short adjectives . So what | |
15:53 | is short adjective mean ? This means an adjective . | |
15:57 | That is one syllable , 2 , 2 syllables . | |
16:02 | But two syllable adjectives for this rule , they end | |
16:05 | in . Why ? So this is an important point | |
16:08 | for this rule for this comparison rule . What's a | |
16:12 | syllable ? What is a syllable syllable is a beat | |
16:15 | ? It's the beat in a word . So for | |
16:18 | example big has one syllable big . We make one | |
16:23 | beat when we say the word pretty has two syllables | |
16:28 | . Priti Pretty two syllables . There are two beats | |
16:34 | in the word . So this part this is the | |
16:38 | rule we use for short adjectives . Words that have | |
16:43 | one syllable , one beach or they have two syllables | |
16:47 | and they end in Y . So how do we | |
16:52 | make the comparative form with these ? The basic way | |
16:58 | to do it basically we use the adjective plus E | |
17:02 | . R . We add E . R . To | |
17:04 | the end of the adjective . Okay if the adjective | |
17:11 | ends in Y like pretty , the sound is the | |
17:15 | same . So Pretty is an adjective that ends in | |
17:18 | Y . This short adjective that ends in Y . | |
17:22 | We make it pretty are . So the er sound | |
17:26 | is the same as this rule . However , when | |
17:29 | we spell the comparative form the why at the end | |
17:35 | of the word changes , we dropped the Y . | |
17:38 | And we add I . E . R . The | |
17:40 | spelling changes . The sound Is earth still Okay then | |
17:47 | ? Hard to see . I know I'm going to | |
17:48 | read this part . Lastly if this ends if your | |
17:53 | adjective ends in consonant vowel consonant . So vowel remember | |
17:59 | A E I O U . Sometimes y . Those | |
18:04 | are the vowels consonants are the other letters . If | |
18:09 | your adjective ends in this pattern like big consonant vowel | |
18:14 | consonant , double the last consonant . That means put | |
18:19 | too put two of this consonant the last consonant and | |
18:22 | add E . R . To make bigger again . | |
18:27 | This is spelling . Okay . Finally , if the | |
18:32 | adjective ends in e just add art . Okay , | |
18:36 | so we're going to practice this with a few examples | |
18:40 | . And of course please send them in the chat | |
18:43 | if you're watching live or so uh send them in | |
18:46 | the comments to if you're not watching live . So | |
18:49 | patterns to use these are all present tense patterns is | |
18:53 | an are of course you can use uh past tense | |
18:58 | and so on . So for today we're going to | |
19:01 | focus on very basic patterns . So for example A | |
19:06 | is or are comparative form , then beat . So | |
19:13 | reminder In this practice , we are using adjectives . | |
19:19 | This is different from the first part of the practice | |
19:22 | today . So A is a noun and B is | |
19:26 | in down here . We want to practice making the | |
19:29 | comparative form of an adjective . So you are funnier | |
19:36 | than me . For example , my brother is funnier | |
19:40 | than me . For example , comparative form . Some | |
19:45 | points to note though if you use this pattern or | |
19:49 | this pattern , this negative one A is not as | |
19:54 | adjective as B . Or A . Is as adjective | |
20:00 | as B . There's no change to this adjective . | |
20:04 | We do not need to use the comparative form here | |
20:08 | . So this pattern , for example , my brother | |
20:11 | is not as funny as me . This uses the | |
20:18 | basic form so my brother is not as funnier as | |
20:22 | me is incorrect , incorrect . Do not change your | |
20:25 | adjective in the negative pattern . And in this one | |
20:31 | to express the two things are equal . A . | |
20:35 | Is as adjective as B . Okay , so let's | |
20:40 | look at some examples . First time gelato is tastier | |
20:45 | than ice cream . My personal opinion , gelato is | |
20:49 | tastier than ice cream . My adjective here is tasty | |
20:53 | . Tasty ends in Y . So I follow this | |
20:56 | rule right here . Tastier than ice cream so I | |
21:02 | want to express this thing is in my opinion , | |
21:04 | better then I scream . Then another one . Seattle | |
21:09 | is not as big as Tokyo . Seattle is not | |
21:12 | as big as Tokyo . So city size in this | |
21:16 | sentence , I use this negative form . So I | |
21:19 | use the basic adjective Seattle A . Is not as | |
21:24 | big as Tokyo . No , change to this project | |
21:29 | . Okay , all right . Someone says tastier . | |
21:33 | So tastier is coming from the adjective . Tasty . | |
21:38 | Something that is tasty . Tasty is a casual way | |
21:41 | to say delicious , delicious . Okay , some examples | |
21:46 | are coming good . Uh , I'm looking for short | |
21:49 | adjectives . Noora says I'm happier than my sister . | |
21:53 | Good job , Nice one . Uh cardiology says he | |
21:57 | is taller than me , but I'm smarter than him | |
22:00 | . Nice example . Okay , someone says Alicia is | |
22:03 | richer than me . Huh , interesting . Okay . | |
22:06 | Uh , Love Khan says my son is taller than | |
22:09 | me . Good examples , everybody , Okay , someone | |
22:12 | says , okay , there's a good example . You | |
22:15 | need to write more bigger , you need to write | |
22:17 | bigger . So bigger is the comparative form more bigger | |
22:22 | is incorrect . Also , this is the size I | |
22:25 | have . So if I write bigger we cannot study | |
22:29 | all the grammar points . So okay , let's go | |
22:34 | . Oh some other questions . What's gelato ? Yeah | |
22:36 | , gelato is like italian . It's I think it's | |
22:39 | from Italy . Originally correct me if I'm wrong . | |
22:42 | Yeah , but it's made with a heavy cream I | |
22:44 | think instead of milk . Yeah . Okay , I | |
22:47 | have to continue to the last point . So this | |
22:50 | is short adjectives . Short adjectives . We are going | |
22:53 | to finish today with long adjectives so real quickly . | |

23:23 | now . So please just go look at them and | |
23:25 | download the ones that you want to get . Okay | |
23:28 | , let's go to the last part of today's lesson | |
23:31 | . I'm going to share the lesson boards again if | |
23:35 | you want to take a screenshot so please get ready | |
23:38 | . Here we go . Okay , so now ones | |
23:41 | with part one , we practice short adjectives . Now | |
23:45 | we are going to practice long adjectives . Long adjectives | |
23:51 | . So again we need to consider syllables . The | |
23:54 | beats in a word , syllables . Okay , let's | |
24:00 | go . So the final part of today's lesson is | |
24:05 | about these long adjectives . So again , two syllables | |
24:09 | or more to silla bulls . The beats of a | |
24:13 | word . Yeah . So for example , beautiful , | |
24:16 | Beautiful . Has three beats or expensive has three beats | |
24:21 | . These are long adjectives . We use this rule | |
24:25 | for long adjectives . All right , let's go to | |
24:30 | making the comparative form . We use more adjective than | |
24:36 | more beautiful than more expensive than less adjective than so | |
24:42 | less beautiful than or less exciting than as adjective as | |
24:49 | . So this expresses equal . Two things are equal | |
24:52 | . That movie is as exciting as the other movie | |
24:57 | and a negative form . Not as adjective as . | |
25:03 | So maybe you'll notice for this one . We don't | |
25:05 | have to change the adjective . We don't have to | |
25:09 | change the spelling , which is great , right ? | |
25:11 | But we need to consider these parts . And a | |
25:15 | common some common mistakes I see with learners are these | |
25:19 | parts at the end then and then with these two | |
25:24 | more something than less something then . And with these | |
25:28 | two as at the end . As to express equality | |
25:32 | and something . Uh that is not equal , uses | |
25:36 | this as a pattern . Okay , um let's go | |
25:40 | . Two examples . Then . I'm checking for your | |
25:42 | questions and your comments . I'll try to check live | |
25:45 | . Okay , let's look at some examples . Now | |
25:49 | . Action movies are more exciting than romance movies . | |
25:54 | Action movies are more excited than romance movies . So | |
25:58 | more exciting . Here is my adjective . No change | |
26:02 | to the adjective , so not more exciting or but | |
26:05 | more exciting . More exciting . And another point . | |
26:10 | Movies . This is a countable noun . Yeah . | |
26:12 | Action movies are so not . Action movie is incorrect | |
26:17 | incorrect . If you want to talk about one action | |
26:20 | movie only , that action movie is more exciting than | |
26:26 | the other action movie . That's correct . This sentence | |
26:30 | is a general statement about all action movies . Action | |
26:35 | movies generally are more exciting than romance movies . Okay | |
26:41 | , Another one . My phone bill this month is | |
26:46 | less expensive , then my bill last month . My | |
26:52 | phone bill this month is less expensive than my bill | |
26:56 | last month . Okay , so a comparison using less | |
27:00 | again . No change too expensive here . All right | |
27:06 | , other examples . Uhh . Oh look on , | |
27:11 | be careful on facebook . My car is more expensive | |
27:13 | than my friend's friend . Apostrophe S . If you | |
27:17 | use my car is more expensive than my friend . | |
27:21 | With no apostrophe S . It means the price of | |
27:24 | your car and the price of your friend . You | |
27:27 | don't want to compare the price of your friend . | |
27:29 | Your friend has no price . So my friends , | |
27:33 | my friends car . Okay . Um All right . | |
27:39 | I don't see other examples . Her computer is more | |
27:43 | expensive than yours says NATO . Good examples . Okay | |
27:46 | . One more the bus today was not as crowded | |
27:52 | as the bus yesterday . So again , the bus | |
27:55 | today was not as crowded as the bus yesterday . | |
28:02 | Native speed . I would say the bus today wasn't | |
28:04 | as crowded as the bus yesterday . We reduce these | |
28:08 | to the bus . Today wasn't wasn't as crowded as | |
28:12 | the bus yesterday . So crowded is my adjective meaning | |
28:16 | lots and lots of people . Okay , cool . | |
28:20 | I'm looking for your examples . I do not see | |
28:24 | . Um , let's see . Jermaine says my cable | |
28:29 | bill , maybe my cable bill this month is more | |
28:32 | expensive than last month . Okay , So when you | |
28:35 | want to compare like those time period ones this month | |
28:39 | or this week or last week , it's sometimes if | |
28:42 | it's not clear , it's a good idea to mention | |
28:45 | the time period . So my bill this month , | |
28:48 | that my bill this week was more expensive than last | |
28:52 | week , for example . Okay , uh Shima says | |
28:58 | Alicia is crazy . Used as a long or short | |
29:00 | adjective . Crazy follows the short adjective rule . So | |
29:04 | crazy . It's two syllables ends in why ? So | |
29:07 | please use the short adjective rule . So he is | |
29:10 | crazier than she is . Okay , Johanna says old | |
29:15 | cars are more aesthetic than moderate cars . Very cool | |
29:19 | , Good , good , good . Bhavna says today | |
29:22 | , today's today's like apostrophe S Livestream isn't as crowded | |
29:30 | as . Don't forget this as here , I'm sorry | |
29:33 | , this one the negative form not as crowded as | |
29:37 | regular live streams . Okay , uh , joe louis | |
29:41 | Hernandez says , wasn't or wasn't ? Oh , the | |
29:44 | apostrophe apostrophe comes between N and T . Wasn't . | |
29:49 | So in this one was not as crowded . I'll | |
29:53 | write it here when you want to make the reduced | |
29:55 | form of this pattern . Use wasn't wasn't as crowded | |
30:01 | as you're . Apostrophe comes right here to reduce . | |
30:07 | This was not becomes wasn't your apostrophe is here between | |
30:11 | an entity . All right . Uh Charles says is | |
30:17 | cheaper . Is that the same as less expensive ? | |
30:19 | Yeah . Yeah . So you can , you can | |
30:21 | choose whichever you prefer . So I could say my | |
30:24 | phone bill this month was cheaper or is cheaper than | |
30:28 | my phone bill last month or I could say less | |
30:31 | expensive . It's up to you . Both are correct | |
30:35 | . Okay . Oh my gosh , I'm very late | |
30:37 | . I have to finish their , Okay , so | |
