Hi Jenna, I have never heard of this expression before, thank you for that. When you said that one of your students asked you if he could say "three cents" it reminded me of while in detention one day one of my fellow detainees ask a guard for something another detainee said to the guard "me too" then another Afghani detainee, whose English was very poor, said to the guard "me three" he thought the second detainee said "me two" it made laugh a lot, what is also funny is that the other day I was watching an American tv show, someone said something another said "me too" and a third one said, joking, "me three" is it a joke Americans use to say ?
This expression is so common, so I'm sure that now that you know it, you will hear it. I laughed at your story. And yes, "me three" is actually a joke or a kind of play on words that we occasionally say. I would say that most people rarely or never say it, but it is definitely something that you can hear from time to time.
I just used this expression today. However, I said "two senses." I never saw the idiom in writing, so my understanding was "sense," not "cents." Then I decided to google this expression to find out if I used it right. It came as "two cents."In my mind, "cents" would not make sense. I google it again, and then I came across your video.😅😅 Now I know how to say it correctly. Thank you! 😉
Hi, Jenna! It's been a VERY long time since we last spoke. How's it shaking? I hope you are doing well and having a good week so far. I've found this video incredibly helpful. I think this is the first that I've heard this expression. As you know that I have a passion for American English, I'm so happy I've learned something new with you today -- thank you! Take care and keep it up!
Interesting! This is such a common phrase, and fortunately, it's not too hard to learn or remember. I am sure you will notice it now that you know it. Nice to 'see' you again, Rodrigo! I hope all is well.
@@LearnAcademicEnglish Now that I've learned this new idiom, my ears will be fine-tuned and attentive to it going forward, so to speak. IKR, it was a while since we last caught up. All is well with me (been pretty busy with both work and law school lately), and I hope you are doing well, too, thanks for asking! Please keep in touch -- I'm always happy to hear from you 😀
Thanks for asking I'm perfect ... Things are under control and problems have gone away for a moment 😎 I'm happy cuz you are doing great there . you have been so good in making good content for us . Thank you 🙌
Don't do it , will you? Do it on time , won't you ? Come with him ,won't you? Please do this ,won't you? Please take seat , won't you ? Let's go there , shall we ? Lets not go there , shall we ? Let me do it , shall I? Let me not do it , shall I? professor are my question tags perfect? I was taught this today
Hi Jenna, would like to have your 2 cents in. My boss asked me to follow the customer ask, i addressed the customer question directly, then he come back in second to say not enough, u should these and those then at last paragraph said “just a cent to share”. To me, my feeling is that he is so rough to me and force me to do. Am I so sensitive or he really rough? Please advise 🙇♀️
Thanks for sharing! It's hard for me to say because I didn't see the whole interaction. If he said "just my 2 cents" in the last paragraph, that means that he was trying to be polite. I think that jobs are a great learning opportunity, so try to take his suggestions and see what happens next time :)
@@LearnAcademicEnglish thanks for sharing your view. He use “ just a cent to share” instead of 2 cents, is it also common phase to use “ just a cent to share” as native speaker, would they say “just a cent to share” just want to know know more on how to use this phase in the future. Appreciate if you can explain 🙇♀️
Mam these sentences seem like they are questions cuz of "wh" group and how group however they are not , they all are statement not question . and like you have already let me know that 'wh' question forms or else ' how'question form when they are taken in between the sentence they don't perform as a question but perform as a statement like .... This is Jason, who is my brother . I don't know whom you have asked . This is Jason whose pen was stolen. I don't know about whom you are talking . The pen which you are using isn't mine . I saw he when it was going on . I don't care whenever you want to go. This is the place where we met . That's how its done . This is the thing what I wanted to say . I didn't know why she was there . Whoever he was , will be arrested What ever that was , will be shown in programme. Whichever book you want , you will be given . Whose ever pen that was , has been stolen . Whom ever you taught , would be star soon . I follow you now where ever you may go . *Non of them are question* *Cuz in question form we get* *Any auxiliary verb or modal verb before subject* *Like who are you ?* *What did u do ?* *You is sub which comes* *after auxiliary verb and wh or how type question form)*

Here is my 2 cents. Learning English is fun! First time i heard this idiomatic expression. It's very lovely! I am gonna use it next time at work.
Well done! Yeah, it's a great expression, and it's very common. In fact, this morning I was at a meeting for work and heard it at least 2 times.
Thank you, Jenna! In Russian we have a similar phrase: to put one's 5 kopecks in (i.e. cents) 😃
Interesting! Thanks for sharing!

professor are my question tags perfect? I was taught this today
Yes but we never use these forms of tag questions. They sound very old-fashioned.
@@LearnAcademicEnglish okay professor , new thing for me never knew that ...
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
In my two cents.. This was a marvellous video and I am totally in euphoria after watching it❤
Great! We usually say "here's my two cents" :)
Hi Jenna, would like to have your 2 cents in.
My boss asked me to follow the customer ask, i addressed the customer question directly, then he come back in second to say not enough, u should these and those then at last paragraph said “just a cent to share”.
To me, my feeling is that he is so rough to me and force me to do.
Am I so sensitive or he really rough? Please advise 🙇♀️

@@esthercyy I've never heard that expression before, but it's possible!
Mam these sentences seem like they are questions cuz of "wh" group and how group however they are not , they all are statement not question . and like you have already let me know that 'wh' question forms or else ' how'question form when they are taken in between the sentence they don't perform as a question but perform as a statement like ....
This is Jason, who is my brother .
I don't know whom you have asked .
This is Jason whose pen was stolen.
I don't know about whom you are talking .
The pen which you are using isn't mine .
I saw he when it was going on .
I don't care whenever you want to go.
This is the place where we met .
That's how its done .
This is the thing what I wanted to say .
I didn't know why she was there .
Whoever he was , will be arrested
What ever that was , will be shown in programme.
Whichever book you want , you will be given .
Whose ever pen that was , has been stolen .
Whom ever you taught , would be star soon .
I follow you now where ever you may go .
*Non of them are question*
*Cuz in question form we get*
*Any auxiliary verb or modal verb before subject*
*Like who are you ?*
*What did u do ?*
*You is sub which comes* *after auxiliary verb and wh or how type question form)*
Yes, you're right. They're not questions. Are you asking for information when you say these sentences? No. :)
No I don't ask for information cuz I know its not the way of asking questions its the way of putting statement .
I will never share my 2 cents again
