Thanks a lot

The expression "on holiday" means you're on vacation. It can refer to taking a trip or even just staying at home if you're off work. E.g., "Sorry I can't reply to your email this week. I'm on holiday until Jan 29, 2024." Using "a" and "the" with on + holiday isn't common because we'd usually use another noun instead (e.g., "I was so relaxed on the cruise." / "Whenever I'm on a trip, I call home once a day."). Also, in + holiday isn't common at all. When referring to time, it's more common to say "during a/the/my holiday" or "while on holiday." (E.g., "I saw many beautiful temples during my holiday in Japan/while on holiday in Japan.")

There are many prepositions in English! Google "prepositions list" to get a full list, or watch our Prepositions of Place video for a list of the most common prepositions: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kq65VGkVwC8.htmlsi=5mHdsewCDjKXdOAf

The first sentence is perfect! The second sentence needs to be this: "Now, Young-Hee visits her grandparents every Saturday." We use the simple present for repeated actions like this. We can't use "used to" when an action is ongoing in the present. The third sentence is almost right, but you need the base form after "used to," not the -ing (progressive) form. The correct sentence is "When I was a child, I used to play outdoors all day in summer."

​@@elliithanks a lot 😊😊

You're welcome! We hope it's all clear now. Let us know if you have any questions!

Hi! We are a small Canadian company and most of us were English teachers before we started working for Ellii. Learn more about us here: ellii.com/about

Thanks a lot!

Our videos reflect common usage for the most part, but there are usually some difficult exceptions listed (especially in videos for more difficult grammar targets such as tag questions, future progressive, past progressive, the passive voice, etc.).

Great job!

Welcome!

Nice! You used all three of those prepositions of time correctly. Well done!

Thanks for watching!

Good luck to you!

In most cases, there isn't any difference. You can learn more about speaking verbs in our blog post (especially under point 5): ellii.com/blog/say-vs-tell-and-other-speaking-verbs

Good luck on your test!

Thank you so much 😊

You're welcome!

You're very welcome!

Yes, those are all correct! Nice job 👏

@@ellii thanks

We use "at" for clock times and with "night": at 1:30, at midnight, at night. We use "in" for periods of the day except "night": in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening. ("Night" is an exception.) Hope that helps!

You're so welcome!

Hi! We have two videos that include prepositions and movement. Prepositions of Place: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kq65VGkVwC8.htmlsi=idJSzTHVDST0S93_ and Prepositions of Direction: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Hd14_fB5AC4.htmlsi=bzdcNM_Fg1YjlL7z

Elliii do you have english bed time stories

@@marwafarag6382 Great grammar and a great habit! Good for you!

@@marwafarag6382 Our Phonics Stories videos and our Benji videos would work well as bedtime stories. Here are the playlists! Phonics Stories: ru-vid.com/group/PL0MvnNQjMzmZEMmSJ9ST8Tq35-VGUQM_f and Benji: ru-vid.com/group/PL0MvnNQjMzmZiOVhoEhJQR-itIcYVVoQq

Hi again! For questions, it depends on the question and on the formality. E.g., Which day does the class start on? = casual / On which day does the class start? = formal (or When does the class start? = also casual). For sentences, the preposition is usually before a noun, not at the end. Do you have a specific sentence where the preposition is at the end to ask me about?

You're welcome!

You're so welcome!

I also agree with your opinion

We're happy to have you here!

We hope it helped!

We're so happy to hear that!

Glad to hear!

Glad you think so!

We use "in" for long periods of time like week, month, season, and year. So we can say "in summertime" or "in the summertime." Both are common.

@@ellii thank you👍🙏

Best of luck to you!!

Thanks for the compliment! Did you know that "so" would sound more natural than "too" in your sentence? "Too" usually has more of a negative meaning. Here's a blog post that explains it (but we'll also make a video about this soon): ellii.com/blog/so-vs-too

Thanks a lot!

yes😎

You're most welcome!

We're happy to help! You need "on" because you mentioned the full date. Here are the differences: He passed his exam on 27 March 1974. / He passed his exam in March 1974.

You got it!

❤️❤️

Good😃🌷🥀📝🌹😄😆☺️

Great!

It's the video author's daughter's birthday 😉

April 19 is my parents marriage anniversary

It's incorrect to say "My brother's birthday is on August." The correct answer is "My brother's birthday is in August." If you say a month without a day or date, you need to use "in." If you say the day or date along with the month, then you can say "on." For example, it's correct to say "My brother's birthday is on August 15" (or August 15th). Hope that helps!
