    I feel like in everyday “lazy” English most people would look at you funny if you said “I’m keen on” or “I take a great liking to”. There’s nothing wrong with saying “ I like” or “I’m into” and is usually what most native English speakers would say.

    • @kelseyhebert2831
      @kelseyhebert2831 Před rokem +3

      This is true. It wouldn’t sound natural to use those words others than very specific instances. I’ve never used I have a hatred for or aversion for.

    • @isaakiloureiro
      @isaakiloureiro Před 4 měsíci

      Yes, that sounds weird. And hatred or aversion seems very rude. Besides, he pronounces “listening” like “lessening” or something like that.

      These "stop using the everyday expressions native speakers use all the time" videos are really weird. Why don't they say something like "expand your vocabulary with by learning these other expressions, but those everyday expressions you already know are 100% valid, so keep using them as much as you want because those are what natives use all the time as well"? No, they have to tell you "STOP USING THESE EXPRESSIONS ALTOGETHER". I don't get the logic behind this.

    Note from a native English speaker: You can use the verb "enjoy" to say "like".
    "I enjoy long walks on the beach."
    "I enjoy watching POC English videos."

    Hi all. Here is what I think about this. I am a native speaker of English at the C2 level. I also hold a Masters in Linguistics, and several other certificates. Don't try to use vocabulary that is too advanced in everyday speech. Keep it simple. It is ok to say that you like/dislike something, etc. The purpose of language is communication, to understand and to be understood - to convey your ideas or thoughts. I have never in my life 'had an aversion' to anything. I simply like or dislike it. Be well.

    Why do I or anyone else has to care what I say? *Like,* if you want to say what you do and don't like you just say it with lots of "likes" or just use enumeration after first "I like/I don't like" and everybody will get that. Why do you have to struggle and put up phrases like "I'm keen", "I'm fond of", "I'm crazy about", "I abhor this/that", "I hate this" in you head when you have simple and convenient "I like"? And judging someone's level of English by the use of vocabulary is ridiculous for me.
