26 分钟Hi there.
This is Harry.
Welcome back to advanced English lessons with Harry, where I try to help you to get a better understanding of the english language, to help you with your conversational skills, your business English skills, interview skills, whatever your goals are, we're here to help.
And for those of you and your friends or family who want one to one lessons, well, you know what to do.
Just get in touch www.englishlessonviaskype.com and you can apply for a free trial lesson.
And we'd be very happy to hear from you and very happy to help you.
And in this advanced English lesson, we're looking at mistakes, and we've got 20 of the very common of those mistakes that I see most often in people's written work or indeed when we give lessons.
Okay?
So 20 common mistakes that people make with the english language.
So as always, I'll go through them with you.
I'll point out the mistake, and I'll also give you an example, okay?
And just for people out there, somebody made a comment that I used the word particular or particularly a lot, and they were wondering how come I'm such a wonderful teacher if I can only use the same word over and over again.
So for you out there, if you find during this particular lesson that I use that word more often than not, then drop me a line, try and count the number of times that I use it.
I'll try to avoid it in this particular lesson.
And of course, if you want to use a word instead of particular or particularly, you can use expressly.
Okay, so that's another word you could use in that sense as well.
Okay, so I can give you other synonyms if you wish, but there's one for you expressly instead of particularly.
Okay?
So let's get on to the most important thing, the content of our lesson today.
As I said, it's 20 of the most common speaking mistakes that we come across in the English language.
