I made some videos on this before: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FumGIV6Rk-8.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sE55gJu15JE.html Hope they're helpful!
They're both grammatically correct and mostly mean the same thing. "afraid to watch" sounds a bit more natural to me but they're both okay. I'd suggest "I get scared when I watch horror movies" because when you say "afraid to watch" it sounds like you've never watched one before and you're afraid to do it (for the first time)
Hi there! We use "for + ing" when we're describing the purpose of nouns, like devices or machines, but we don't use it for describing the purpose of an action. For example: This device is for printing contracts. This website is great for finding good deals on books A telephone is useful for keeping in touch. But when we describe the purpose of an action (a verb), we use "to + infinitive" Like: He went out to see his friends He left to have lunch I'm flying tomorrow to visit my family. Hope this helps!
Hi there! I will continue posting videos soon. I've had some difficulty this year with setting up my studio to record. However, I will be back and posting videos regularly again. Thank you for the message of support! ❤️
Great question! "Zero" is used when we talk about amounts ("zero kilograms") or in mathematics ("one minus one equals zero"), but not so often when we talk about addresses or phone numbers

Hi! No, sorry. You should say "I work AT a pharmacy" or "I work as a pharmacist" or "I am a pharmacist"! The 'pharmacy' is the place where you work, but the job is a 'pharmacist'.
Thnku so much sir🙏please continue like this videos👍 your teaching method is unique❄ thanku again sir may god bless you🤞I'm indian🇮🇳 i like to way your teaching method 💫
In video 1.1 you say, that texture, pattern and materials are after than colors so why you say "ripped, light blue jeans" not "light blue, ripped jeans"?
Hi there! I'd say you're absolutely right. Both sound natural to me. I think the main reason is that "blue jeans" are sort of seen as a type of denim jeans instead of a color. Sometimes we call them "blue jeans" not because we're interested in describing the color but because blue jeans are a type of denim material. However, you're right that "light blue, ripped jeans" sounds correct, too! I might even go so far as to say "distressed/stonewashed jeans" would be enough to describe those jeans. Thank you for the question! ❤️
