Yes, bread is made from FLOUR, not FLOWER (which, by the way, are pronounced exactly the same!) 😂 Anyway, this isn't a cooking class... I hope the rules in this video are useful for you! 👍🏼 👍🏼 Mentioned in the video ⤵️ 📚 [FREE BOOK] Fix the mistakes 99% students make in English: book.englishquickfix.com/ 📽 More videos on commonly confused words: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4_pkBN3D0nE.html
Hola from Perú. Biggest thank you for your lessons. I have to admit that British English sounds very hard for me. I saw flower and thought: I know nothing.
When you understand the word "make" as "create", everything becomes much clearer. What are you doing? = What action are you performing? What are you making? = What are you creating?
@@EnglishWithGreg I watched the video several times now. And between you and me it's fantastic. So much information, so many examples. I enjoy it every time. You are right. It's worth it to put it in my "Favourites". I'll watch it again and again. I love it. Thanks a lot for that. I appreciate your effort with this video. Take care. Marco
Big like! 👍 Thank for this video,Greg! P.S: Expressions that are obvious for English people are not always obvious for foreigners. 😜 Greetings from Hungary! 🥰
Hello Greg, cheers from sunny Brazil. Congrats for the videos, excellent learning features, specially in pronunciation, very helpful indeed. Could I suggest a theme for a short video? What are the differences in meaning among the words: between, among, amongst, amid and amidst? I hear people using between all the time even for more than two objects. Thanks in advance!
Not easy to remember all that. I think the best thing is to learn all these expressions by heart as many times as necessary so that they impose themselves in your head the day you need them.
Good day, Greg. Thanks a lot for this lesson. It's helpful as always 🙂. Could you explain the difference between "make from" and "make of"? Thank you in advance 💓
Great job, Greg! Can you tell me if the following sentences are all right: You made a good video about do and make. I did English at school ( replacing the verb to study) Have a good one!
Hi Greg, İ hope you are good. İ will be a question to you. İ 'm confusing abouth that. ( Up and down) Both of them is used a lot in the sentence. Forexample come up, put up, set up, was up, now up etc...noise down, knock down, downward , downhearted etc.. they are both are used with verb. Please ,Can you post me a video or lesson with These. Thanks in advance.
Some Americans do say "make a photo" or "made a photo," particularly if they are photographers. (I've heard Ansel Adams may have been the originator of this usage.) Do/make in conjunction with the word "project" is an interesting one. "Are you making progress on your project?" vs "How are you doing on your project?" "What are you going to do for your final project?" and "What are you going to make for your final project?" could both be acceptable, depending on what the context is for that final project. If you're writing a paper, then "do" refers to the subject of the paper, but if you're in a class where projects are physical items, like food or clothing, or sculptures, etc., then "make" would be correct.
My (French) wife still says “make a tour” to say something like “circle around the parking lot,” even though her English is impeccable. As an American, I might say something more like “make a loop.” For me, the word “tour“ always means a guided visit. When she says “let’s make a tour around the supermarket,” I always joke that I’m not really interested in touring the place where I get my groceries. Does anyone know of an English dialect where “tour“ means just to walk around in a circle?
8:20 Can't we say?: "fulfil" or similar words like "perform", "carry out" etc... We are fulfilling all these tasks. "Make bed" is something like "Prepare bed". Am I missing something?
He makes me do things… What a travesty this is. Yeah…. NO rules in English. Doing ironing makes me more tired than making a plan. My head can’t comprehend all that. Sorry.
Very useful thank, BUT there's one thing I don't get 10:43 here you say do substitutes the obvious verbs in the context. But based on this, practically like 80% of the sentences could use do. Who says what's obvious? :) and for who is obvious in the first place? Also just as a side note and philosophy, isn't this a kind of phasing out of these expressions from the language? Cos if you only say do, and not paint, after a while it will be forgotten, that you 'paint' your nails. You just do it. Just a thought experiment, I'm not a linguistics expert or anything.
I am not giving a damn what my family says. Only thing is I was being sedated with pills injected with cocaine. That's all. It wasn't a fall out just for a fall out.Thwy didn't care. I don't give a damn right now. They should apologize for their behaviors. I wanted to walk out the house her exhusband would not let me.
Thank you so much.I mostly use do and make correctly ,but it's quite difficult to explain the differences.Maybe just because we used to learn the expressions by heart in school .
Thank you for your effort, you do a great job for us. To find your channel was out of the blue for me. You are one of the best teachers. I try to do my best in English, you help me a lot, teacher.
That pronounciation? 8:57 "do the ironing" = "do the eye-ring"???

Excuse me , do You have a vídeo which explains the present perfect or past perfect when you indirectly ask a person for a favor or service,Or describe something someone else does.for You ,I'd be really grateful.
Thank you... very useful. Interestingly, make is used for food and drinks but we can't say "I make the cooking" we have to use - do in this context "I do the cooking".
Hello, Greg, could you make a video explaining the differences between words like change, swap, exchange, switch, etc. that sometimes tend to be a little confusing. Thank you.
Hi there, thank you for your teachings. If possible,Can you please do a video on examples: he doesn’t like, Simon don’t like or doesn’t like.. and also use of “ The “ kind regards. Sultan 🙏🏽
The bread that is made from flower may not be as delicious as the bread that is made from flour, but it's OK Greg, some bakers may make bread from flower and maybe it's good for health🤣
I would say reading many texts and books can give one a feeling for this, but reading short stories and watching videos of Greg in between could be a good way to proceed.
