Hi Lucy 👋 can you tell me the easy and the fast way to study English please 😊
Do you hate Vietnamese ????
@@hoatran73 why on EARTH would you ask that?
@@EnglishwithLucy are you a single?
@@EnglishwithLucy hey Lucy what Ahmed us man said
If everyone spoke so clearly like you, it would be easier for non-native speakers having an English conversation :c ❤️
You're the best teacher!
Not only best but the most beautiful British Teacher.
She really is!
I agree.
Specially
If an ielts examiner speaks so clearly
I am saying some ielts speaking examiners in Australia are really really incompetent, and more they incompetent more arrogant they would be
This is just a harsh truth and a crime against the the students
Agreed
I love this channel because so easy to understand what you talk even i don't know english very well. I am from Malaysia.
I agree, great content!
Yeah her accent is very clear mmm
Great for you man
You scared us.
I really accept your message

I think the most difficult thing about learning English is having a conversation without getting stuck.
That is very true but like everything else, practice makes perfect!
Correct. That's true . Practice, practice practice could be helping us to be better in English
U r right...
Us Brits do that a lot in normal every day life too!! Weather it's to a Native or not!! 😂😂 We'd get stuck in the middle of a conversation and it'd be Extremely awkward lol
Oh Lucy, I'm absolutely positive that conditional tenses in your interpretation is exactly what a lot of people would learn. It would be great to watch such video.
first ehhehehe sorry
Oh my gosh i am late 🤭😁😁😁
English with Lucy second😂
Hmm
Do you hate Vietnamese ????
For sure
I always think that the answer about lottery tells a lot about the person. It's a good way to see if people are more about themselves or about others. And you answered that you would do something for your parents first 😉
and in one video she says her father is managing's director :))
You're really an amazing English teacher to help people learn & love English. And, I'M one from those people. After watching your videos, I can make out that I'VE improved myself in English.
So, thanks a ton, Lucy.
I want to agree with most of the people. If every native person would speak as good as you, life for us, non-native people would much easier. It's such a pleasure to listen to you. It's funny how we understand more, pretty much all, but can't pronounce or just dont remember all. I wish I could have a friend like you. Shame that I didn't see your channel before. 👏👏👏 respect
I can't continue conversatinons well even in my native language, so your today's lesson was really helpful for me. Especially, that "What do you do" is bad gave a new light to my eyes. I'm looking forward to your next lesson.
You're amazing, I'm trying to learn this accent and you're helping me a lot. So here's the appreciation you deserve.
Which accent do you speak
@@ahmadyahaya1922 I'm learning the Brit accent curently :)
@@kalpikas8444 same with me,...
Nice compliment.
I say completely the same. ♥️
I love the way you teach your lessons because as a teacher you get to your point straightforward and the secrets and tips that you give are very helpful and I always keep them in mind when I discuss with different groups of people
Great Job!!!
Oh, you're so right about the schwa sound whilst thinking. It is really normal in Chile, which is where I'm from. Very helpful to know that fact about UK conversation skills. Love your lessons Lucy!
Am I the only one that really enjoys the beginning song 😂
Btw Lucy you are an amazing teacher and you inspire me

Sherlock: Shut up!
Lestrade: I didn't say anything
Sherlock: You were thinking, it's annoying!
Hahaha We always relate something like this to Sherlock! The full scene totally came up to my mind 😂
One of the most memorable moments!
Well, I am from India. As in India, we have various languages, cultures etc., we poses differently in same situation. If you ask me, as I am from Kolkata, West Bengal, here, we usually sound like "hmmmm" and pause for a few seconds... We don't open mouth while thinking. Most of us follow this way... But, as you know, every human is unique, one can't stick to any particular way of expressing the feelings. And, in the end, I do want to thank you for your videos, these are really very helpful to a many. Love from Kolkata, India.
Thank you Lucy. I like your pronunciations , speed and lessons . You speak with a very clear tone. Loud and clear. I can hear every syllable. I really enjoy your lessons.
Thank you. 😊
In France we go like "EUHHHH" whilst thinking lol
Ca veut r dire dans ta phrase "we go like"
@@mayer1973 typiquement français hahaha
I totally agree with you. When I talk with French on phone, they always say "euhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
@@caiusjulius1228 très vrai! Ahah
@@mayer1973 What was the right way to say it ? :p
Hi Lucy and everyone. In Spain, we do say 'eeee' instead of 'aamm' when thinking aloud. It's true that our vowels 'a' and 'e' are pronounced with an open mouth. But, I want to point out that the level of loudness and openness of the mouth depends more on the person speaking habits. Your example is definitely informal and not common in situations where a higher register of language is used. Thanks for your videos!
I agree. Some people just forget what he-she was talking about and says, well, "esto" or if they talk very quicky they use tails like and so, "y tal" , "you know"... Well. Anyhow, it's different from Oh I see! or Ah! E.g., I'm waiting for my dentist, so I have now the habit of puting my hand above the mouth, for if I have forgot my artificial tooth that day, or try to use a handkerchief (imagine how difficult it is pronouncing any long word both in Sp or Eng; blasted artificial tooth). Well, it depends, Lucy, today's not my day. I'll answer you tomorrow when I had thought of it roughly.
This video is phenomenal !!!!!!! ❤️🤍❤️♥️❤️🤍❤️🤍❤️
thanks lucy! for bringing positive conversation tips and tricks. your teaching is not just English, but positive mindset too!
Really thank you Lucy, I've been giving some conversation lessons to a friend of mine lately and definitely needed to watch it❤️
It is hard to pick my favorite thing about you; your enthusiasm for teaching, your grammar knowledge, your sense of humor, your beautiful british accent, or of course, your elegant and gorgeous persona. I enjoy every of your videos.
My favorite teacher. Spectacular sense of humor....💙💙💙💙💙
Thank you so much for the lesson. Is very helpful. I am learning English and these are things I never think before but compliments like that are very foreign to me. We don’t do it in my language too much. But you are helping me very well to learn to adapt. Thank you Ms. Lucy!
Lucy’s voice is so soothing... I can listen to her all day log
Awwww, so sweet.
I reckon that this lecture of yours helps me with improvement of my English learning. I really appreciate your service.
It's so lovely watching you, lady. it always gives me a new level of confidence of public speaking.
Hey! We too in India use 'umm' or 'hmm' sometimes even 'aaa' sound with mouth shut while thinking, but while conversing in English we mostly use 'well' a lot😄☺️
I really like and enjoy your videos, because I'm self taught, this helps me improve and notice what mistakes do I make while talking/writing and helps me fix them before they become permanent issue or regular habit of using some words or slang that are not very best way of expressing myself. Keep your work up, you are doing amazing. 😊
Yes, i totally agree to you, if it's possible response me on +917905889696 whom we help eachother about to increase conversation skills by talking, because we are different cultures so there is just a common language English where we can talk. As you wish
Hi Lucy, it’s 1:30 am in my country and I can’t help watching your video, as it is so interesting and useful that it’s taken over my tiredness! Thanks a lot for your precious tips, you’re a very good teacher, who is capable of making topics easy to understand, motivating her students with a positive attitude and always offering interesting viewpoints to think about more in depth! Keep up the good work, you’re great!! Goodnight and lots of love from Italy ❤️
how elegant, correct and refined is the accent of England, thank you for such valuable teaching.
Great video again! There are so many things and phrases you're teaching that are not taught in regular schools, amazing! :) Thank you so much!
Hi Lucy! I started to watch River Cottage because one of your lately uploaded video, and, omg, this is AMAZING. I'm not keen on it on my mother tongue but I definitely like it in English. Thanks for the recommendation! 💛
I'm learning English language desperately and your videos help me a lot,truly you are amazing teacher
Okey, I am on the third point, where Lucy talks about Spanish culture and I have to say that I, as spanish, totally agree with this fact😂! Saludos desde País Vasco 😘
Hey Lu!
I'd love it if you post some videos on conditionals, tenses, etc cuz I've been struggling a bit with them at school.
all the love-
You really are amazing, my mentor 👍. You inspire me
Hi Lucy, you know I love the way u explain, thank you so much
You are excellent teacher I have ever seen in my life.Your explaining skill is so nice.
Me being an introvert,this video of yours was quiet helpful.
Thanks a ton.
Awww, you sound so sweet.
Thank you Lucy, you are so pretty and intelligent! You has helped me a lot with my British English, I hope to see more amazing videos from you💗
As an American, in reference to the "What do you do?" question, they were probably waiting for more. Such as "What do you do for work?", or "What do you do for fun?". I hope that helps explain why there may have been confusion. I do love your videos!
I loved your lesson Lucy!!! can't wait to implement your useful tips !
Honestly speaking, I don't produce any sound while thinking as I often speak out loud my thoughts! Sounds strange, I know. And this is happening over and over again since the lockdown has started. I look forward applying these conversational skill secrets although at.... 6 feet distance. I owe you one, Lucy. 😉🇮🇹
I'm from Russia. In Russian we used to say "эмм" and "э" sounds to show that we're thinking. Also we use the "хмм" sound (I know a lot of foreigners are using this sound too) meaning we're thinking that if a certain person (it may be a friend, a relative or just a person we know) suggested us something interesting
How, bro, have u got this like from Lu??
@@don-giovanni well, she said to write if we have the same
Actually an ideal teacher in English. Thank you
your videos are amazing!! I'm learning a lot of things thanks to you. Greetings from Italy
I’m really interested in lesson about how to express love feelings to your couple, cuz I can’t find enough adjectives and idioms to express all gradients of love. In Russian or Spanish there are a lot more. Am I wrong? I hope you could show us a lot of different tools, tips and tricks how to do it. Thanks. You’re brilliant
That would be a great video to make.
hope for it
4:30 Imagine a Spanish classroom during a maths control work.
Thanks for the video I’m watching all your videos an I’m really improving my understanding of English and learning other words.. you’re the best Lucy
Out of words!, Absolutely beautiful and smart way of teaching! Go on no matter what lucy!!
OMG Lucy, I'm from Lantin America and we are as loud as Spanish people when we're thinking 😂😂
Hello Lucy ma'am!
My name is Aaradhaya and I am an indian. I am 12 and presently studying in 7th class . If you are reading this you don't know how much you have helped me improve my english ! I mean you are amazing ! Lots of love to you ❤ and stay safe ! I really wish that I can meet you someday . You are fabulous
Oh my god, I'm so happy cause a few months ago, I don't understand anything, but now I can know a few topics, now I've found your chanal to improve my English listening skills with American and British accents, I'm from brazil and I love your language!
Your lessons are always making me smile. I absolutely enjoy them.
Your pic makes me smile. I love rainbows.
In Sweden and Finland many people, like me, uses the öö sound while thinking (lock up the sound on google translate if you want)
Same in Hungarian! Öö
As a Spaniard, the ‘ehhh’ part killed me 🤣
Im from Argentina, and here is similar, even very prestigious TV personalities do ir...EEEEEEEE, terrible jajajajaj
My first language is British English and I found this video so useful because I'm really bad at small talk with my extended family and my family friends. Great video, I love watching your videos
I love your videos. These makes me feel so great in this time.
In Hong Kong (Cantonese) we say that thinking “EH...” too, with the same tone you used.
In France every people use "euhhh" and since i watch videos in english i always say "um" and all the french people look at me like "where do you come from"😂btw thank you for you amazing videos❤
LOL! Great hack!
You are really a good teacher. I love you Lucy.
Lucy your videos are just so good. I would love to see more advance level videos.
Also, your vlogs are just so calming. Please keep them coming, because they're a great way to get a hang of how natives generally talk and have conversations. I noted some good words and phrases from your vlogs. Thanks☺️
Love from India. Stay safe.
me: *thinks*
*intense silent and awkward staring moment*
haha thats funny!
😂😂😂meee
Lol
I watched behind the scene of this video in your last vlog on Lucy Bella Earl channel
Please keep posting these vlogs I really enjoy watching your farm life with your fiancé and Diego of course ♥♥
aaaah thank you I am so glad you enjoy them!! I am just editing another one!
@@EnglishwithLucy I bet it's gonna be about gardening 😉
Thanks for this valuable class. It’s informative, comfortable and even enjoyable. I could feel even happy I think that you’ve been delivering while making the lesson. 💕
Lucy, thank you for your lessons. I used to live in England and now in the US, and originally from Mexico. Your lessons remind me a lot of my times in the UK. You have an awesome humour too!
Hello, great way to have fun in conversation!! Would you mind to make a video about conditional tenses!! It would be great for me and for all the students that follow your lessons. Bye
5:20 in Bulgaria we say : aaaaaaaa :D
i also know about in Spain it was strange for me too in the begining lol
buut now i live in England and all i know is from movies but they are more American so now i need to know British English :D so thank you for these videos :)
Well done Lucy!! It shows that not even the lockdown gets you 'down'. You are an inspiration in these terrible times with your lovely approach. Pleasure learning and improving my language skills with you. God Blessed your live and future projects.
Love the way you deliver your explanation. Very beautiful and clear. Thank you!
Love to learn your lessons amazing improvement l see in myself
Hey Lucy,
I´m following your channel since a long time and I finally have a question.
I´m in the current super sprint of Lingoda - thanks to you - and this new offer also has awaken my interest.
Do you know if I can do both at the "same time" with an overlap period?
Best regards
Daniel
Hello Lucy! I totally agree, I'm from Spain, I'm from Madrid and we really do do the sound you did "eeeeeeeeeeeeh" (with the mouth open wide), thanks for your awesome videos!
This video is the most useful and best among all of Lucy's lessons about English learning. I really appreciate your advice~!
Hungarians think like "öööö", or just say "izé". "Izé" is a word of everything. Like you can't say what it is, but hope the others understand...☺
(Mainly they don't. 😂)
Uuuh We Finns say Öööö too! (but is the sound itself the same? In Finnish the 'öö' sound is close to the British schwa sound...)
@@ilaripeltonen4330 Ours is a bit sharper, but something similar. If you want more, just find a live tv show in Hungarian. I'm sure you'll find what you're searching for in less than 5 mins.
IZÉ IS OOOOOLD. ÖÖÖÖÖ IS FOREVER
I was told that "ize" is originated from the word "iz" which was a demon in old Hungarian mythology. Sometimes you hear Hungarians saying: may the iz eat it! (Az iz egye meg!).
My mom is Hungarian but I'm Canadian and I'm learning the language and culture - and I must say that the Hungarian mythology is the most intetestingvthing I've ever read.
@@skojigoquist9288 I never heard such a phrase and I am a born Hungarian.
In french we say: "Euh...". Prononciation: eeeeeeeeeee...; the most open of the three french "e". In phonetics: [œ], like: œuf, leur...
Who wouldn't want to have a lockdown at some farm with Lucy with all this English Learning and this great amount of beauty. Keep it up. You're marvellous.
Your chanel is so important to me, you’ve helped me a lot! Thank you so much!
“What is your advice?🤨”
so funny 😂
LOLOLOL!
Im spanish and ive never noticed about the ehhh while thinking 😂😂😂
I'm a student of English and your videos are helping me a lot.
Grateful 🇬🇧💙❤
One of my favourite teachers.I really enjoyed watching your video ❤❤❤❤❤
Tip n° 3 - in Brazil we do the same: Ehhhh or Ahhh :) I've lived in Ireland for three years and they are more like us than the British people "mmmmm" 😂😂😂😂 mouth opened too 🤭
1st outsider (except Lovely Lucy sis)
I love the way of your teaching and you as well
I watch videos not just learning but to see Lucy for a long time😍
I use the “eeeeeeeh” like Maradona but i'm trying to avoid that
Eugenia Motter Every Argentinian use the ehhhhh 😂 and then we say,oh I speak like Maradona
Vamooo Argentina 😂🇦🇷💙
@@fernandosaul8629 I believe that every Latin American or native Spanish speakers uses it, lol
That "eeeeh" sounds like a Chinese version lol
Russian people pronounce this sound as well.
When thinking.
English say: hmhmhnhnhm
Spanish say: ééééééé
Hungarians: ööööööö
Chinese: aaaaaaaaaa
Polish: oh kurwa
I’m Polish and I do not agree with you. Polish say hmhm when thinking not „oh kurwa” which is a swear phrase and means „oh fuck”. Saying lies you offend Polish people. Some of us do swear but not in such context.
@@sebastian1200 bro im not polish but i know he's just kidding
Hey bro，It should be Chinese say “emmmmm ”when they are thinking，this is the correct way.
@@pix_d20 thank you :)
Hah, Hungarian - where did you pick that up from?
Lucy's teaching technique is great...I like the way she teach me...
SOOO Happy 4u, CONGRATS!!!!
In Italy, when thinking, we make the same sounds as you did so a "Uhm" sound but we often go like "Eehm" too, so a slightly long E sound at the beginning. However I have to admit that I make the same sound as Spanish people sometimes but it isn't that loud and my mouth isn't that wide when I make it ahahah, it's kind of softer.
I've burst out laughing listening to that sound! It's true: we do exactly that way. 😂😂😂
in Azerbaijan we make the "eeeeh" sound when we're thinking and we make the "mmm" or "hmm" sound when we agree with someone
Awww, sounds cute! I would love to visit one day!
@@myenglishteachermissgreene538 It would be amazing 💫
She's much dedicated I love that ♥️
Thanks Lucy for your work teaching English and your interesting videos. Would you like to advice something to pratice collocations and make them automatic? Grazie :)
In Greece it’s exactly the same as in Spain! While thinking we go “eeeeeh” and now it seems rude to me, I’ll prolly give strange looks to ppl thinking 😂
We also say : "mmm..." and mayby :"aaaaaah" 😁. I often say these when I'm thinking 😂. It's in person's nature... 🤔
I always love when you say "I have my twitter".
Just to listen to you is a great learning tool for me.Thank you for that.
Thanks mam for giving us a good content for English learning
I watch every single video you make
