Almost every language learner struggles with prepositions. This is perfectly normal because when we are learning a new language, we want to transfer the rules and phrases from our first language to our new language. This works sometimes - but not always! Should you say “I listen to music”, or “I listen music”? Is the correct sentence “He went to home”, or “He went home”? These are just two of the common confusions that I discuss in this essential English grammar lesson. What about “married to” vs. “married with”? “For” or “during”? “Depend of” or “depend on”? Watch this video to find out if you make any of these ten frequent English preposition mistakes. To review this lesson in greater detail, read the article that I wrote about it: www.englishalex.com/post/begi...

Hi, dear Alex! It's been amazing to watch your videos and learn from them. You really make the English learning process a lot easier and - at least for me - completely accessable. By the way, I learned that you are from Russia, and I just discovered the Russian literature. I've been reading the book "Dead Souls" ("Almas Mortas" in Portuguese), by Nikolai Gogol. I see his birthplace is a controversial subject, but I think he can be included in the Russian writers list. What can I say now? I just can't stop reading that book. It's simply amazing.

Hello sir, how are you? I would like to ask a question about modal verb"Need". The question is " I need to have been a professor/doctor".Is it correct as per you? please sir tell me on comment.
@engvidAlex
@engvidAlex Год назад
Yes, this sounds fine, though I’d need to see the rest of the context. Something like this sounds possible to me: “To be eligible for that position, you need to have been a professor with at least 5 years of post-secondary experience.”

Sir, is depend on a phrasal verb?
@engvidAlex
@engvidAlex Год назад
Yes. It is a combination of a verb and a preposition, and it has an idiomatic meaning. Some might just call it a prepositional verb (similar to “listen to” and “agree with”), but because of its idiomatic usage, I consider it a phrasal verb.
@suryanarayanaa5320
@suryanarayanaa5320 Год назад
Sir, Can we say ' It depends upon the situation.' ?

Yes! This is also perfectly fine. It sounds slightly more formal, but it’s acceptable.

English prepositions all mean approximately the same thing. In America, traffic signs state “drive IN your lane” when correct is “drive ON your lane” Philippines knows English better than Americans because their traffic signs correctly use ON. Tagalog has two prepositions, Saan and Nasaan. English with hundreds of prepositions should follow their lead rather than poor kids having to listen to English profs drone on about subtle and confusing differences in the unnecessarily large quantity of prepositions
