Hi In British English, both "elder" and "older" can be used to talk about who is older between two people. "Elder" is often used to compare ages between two people, like saying "she is the elder sister." "Older" is used more generally to talk about age, like saying "he is older than his brother." So, in everyday conversation, people might use them interchangeably to mean the same thing.

In English, when someone asks 'Who is older, you or your sister?' and the response is 'My sister is younger than I am,' it means the person is saying 'My sister is younger than I am [older].' It's a way of emphasising that the speaker is older than their sister. Hope this clarifies it for you!

@@VancesLaneEnglish Appreciate your useful information, but why did she say ? She is younger than I'm, instead of saying she is younger than me.

@@mustafajawad8099 Traditional grammar favours “She is younger than I am” because it clearly completes the comparison using a full clause. However, in everyday usage, “She is younger than me” is commonly accepted and understood to mean the same thing, even though it uses the objective case (“me”) instead of the subjective case (“I”).

Thanks for watching my video. Just to clarify: “Long Overdue” "Long overdue" means that something should have happened a long time ago and it’s now very late. For example, if someone finally gets a promotion at work after many years of waiting, you might say, "That promotion was long overdue." Difference Between “Dew” and “Due” - **Dew**: This is moisture that forms on surfaces, like grass or leaves, during the night. It appears as tiny droplets in the morning. - Example: "The grass was wet with morning dew." - **Due**: This refers to something that is expected or owed. - Example: "The report is due tomorrow." - Example: "She paid her dues to the club." Hope that clears things up! 😄

Thank you for watching! I am glad my videos help you! Keep going! 💪

Hello, there are mainly British expressions.

In American English, some common expressions to describe hot weather include: • Blazing: When the sun is shining intensely, and it feels extremely hot. • Sizzling: Similar to food cooking in a pan, it’s used for very high temperatures. • Torrid: Refers to very hot and dry conditions. • Scorching: Just like in British English, it describes extreme heat.

Thank you for your comment and thank you for watching my videos! What we say in English depends on the context ( situation), so sometimes many different options are possible depending on what you are trying to say and how you say it. We usually say: “I need your help with my homework” (now or soon). 👍

Thank you for watching and your comment In my long format videos I try to speak slower. I will try to speak slower in the future. One day, you will speak like that too! 😂

@@VancesLaneEnglish it’s my dream

Hi! It can be understood like that too. The idiom "wearing your heart on your sleeve" is often used to describe someone who shows their emotions openly AND can fall emotionally for another person easily.

Thanks for watching! ☺️

There is an idiom for every occasion! Thanks for watching.

Thanks for letting me know! I appreciate your input. Thanks again for watching! Wil try different examples next time.

Thanks for sharing your perspective! While it's true that 'no entry for vehicles' and 'no entry' both indicate that entry is prohibited, in traffic signage, they often mean the same thing: no entry for any type of vehicle. Appreciate your engagement with the topic!

Thank you so much for your comment and for watching my video. I will post a long format video today on all 5 idioms. Both “into” and “in” one basket options are acceptable as they mean the same. I hope this helps. ☺️

​@@VancesLaneEnglishAs a 56 year old nurse, who was born in South Wales, lived in four English counties and worked or lived in seven Scottish regions, as well as both Jersey and Guernsey (Channel Islands), I have never heard "Into," used in this context. I agree it would be grammatically and linguistically correct, but it isn't common, which is the only reason I pointed it out

@@craigflower13 Thank you for sharing your perspective! It's fascinating how language usage can vary across different regions and contexts. While 'into' might not be commonly used in certain areas, it's interesting to see the diversity in language expression. Appreciate your insight! Have a good day!

"Wee muckers" is a colloquial term often used in Northern Ireland and Scotland. "Wee" means small or little, and "muckers" is derived from "mate" or "friend." So, "wee muckers" affectionately refers to small friends or little buddies, often used to address children or a group of close friends in a friendly and endearing manner. It's a regional expression that reflects a sense of camaraderie and familiarity.

Hello and thank you for your questions. There are a few possibilities. If you are confident (100% sure) that the person knocking at the door is Priyanka, you can say: 👉 "This will be Priyanka." If you suspect it is her, but you are not sure, as you were not expecting her, but she sometimes comes by, you can say: 👉 "This could be Priyanka" 👉 but "This might be Priyanka." is also possible. We would NOT say: "This would be Priyanka." I hope this helps! Any questions - let me know. Have a good day!

@@VancesLaneEnglish Ohh thank you for your response 🙏 But mam when i say this will be Priyanka then this won't mean that she will be "after some time(in the future)?" Because as i understand that Will use for indicating future? But i want to understand from you that can we use WILL for present moment like this? And i want you to give me another example so i can understand mam 🙏🙌

You are most welcome. You say "This WILL be Priyanka" when you are 100% sure it is her. Let's say she said she would come at 5pm and it is 4:58pm and she is never late and someone is knocking at the door. Then you are absolutely sure it is her. Then you can say that. I hope this helps. Remember, in any language, what we say and how we use it depends on the context - meaning the situation. @@nirajthakor9748

@@VancesLaneEnglish Mm okay slowly but I'm understanding... If I'm quite sure about her then what about she must be Priyanka? And i have also confused with this situation... Suppose i have to go to see the doctor but I'm not sure whether he has come to the hospital yet or not but i want to say this way to my cousin.. "Mm i have to go to see the doctor but I don't think he will/will have/or has come" Soo now here i really don't have any idea or kind of information about him being there "RIGHT NOW" but sometimes we randomly say in talking.. 1) I don't think he WILL COME (yet) 2) I don't think he WILL HAVE (yet) *3) I don't think he HAS COME (yet)* Now also using "Will" I don't want to express him being at hospital in the FUTURE but in the "present moment" that is beyond my knowledge that actually he is at hospital or not but *I'm making a guess this way usually we do..*

1. In English, it all depends on the situation. “You must be Priyanka” is also possible, but then you don’t expect her, but you think it must be her and nobody else would come at this time to your house, so it must be her. 2. Let’s try to figure out what you mean: 1) I don't think he WILL COME (yet) If you think someone is NOT likely to come - then you can say that. That means that according to your opinion, this person will not come = show up. For example to a party. 2) I don't think he WILL HAVE (yet) - I would not say that. It is better to say: “I don’t think he has arrived yet.” That means you are expecting him to arrive soon, but he has not arrived yet. The Present Perfect Tense. 3) I don't think he HAS COME (yet) - I would not say that. 4) If you have made an appointment in a hospital with the doctor, you can say “I am seeing a doctor today” (plans) or “I am seeing a doctor now” (as we speak). @@nirajthakor9748

Yes, those phrases convey a similar meaning, but there is a slight difference in wording: "The proof is in the pudding." "The proof of the pudding is in the eating." The first phrase is a shortened version of the second. Both expressions suggest that the true value or quality of something can only be judged or demonstrated through practical experience or by trying it out. Thanks for watching my video!

Sounds fantastic! I hope to spend a Christmas in Australia one day. In Europe people usually celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve as a main event, so it is different from the UK. They also consume clear water variety of fish as main course, not turkey. They open presents on Christmas Eve too. Thank you for your comment and for watching my video! Merry Christmas!

I have Scottish relatives and a number of the years ago I spent a white Christmas and New Year in Scotland. It was very different being so cold, but it was great to spend this time with family. Merry Christmas to you.
