  • Hi there.

  • Welcome back.

  • Teacher Harry here, back to our English lessons, where I try to give you a better understanding and help you to improve your English, whether it's for business English or just ordinary conversational English with your friends, or indeed, if you're applying for a job in an international company and you want to speak better or present yourself better or get yourself involved in that small talk, come to us, we'll help you with all of your needs.

  • I'll give you my contact details at the end of this particular lesson.

  • Okay, well, what are we going to talk about today in the lesson?

  • Today's lesson, we're going to talk about stative verbs.

  • Okay?

  • Now, stative verbs, there are lots of them.

  • And these are, they fall into four key categories.

  • And normally when we use these stative verbs, like love or like or hate, we use them in the simple tense.

  • Okay?

  • We seldom use them in the continuous format, or ing, as some people refer to it, but we can.

  • And there are exceptions, as always in the english language, there are lots of exceptions.

  • So I'll give you the stative verbs.

  • I'll give you examples of them in their simple format, and then I'll also give you examples when you can use them in that continuous, present continuous format, okay?

  • And as I said at the end of this, hopefully you should get a really good understanding of how to use them.

  • But if you still feel you need some more information, come back to me and we'll give you some more examples or point you in the right direction where you can get a book or something that will give you some more details.

  • Now, for those of you who like fast food, you're probably familiar with McDonald's.

  • And if you listen to the ads for McDonald's, you'll always hear the ad, McDonald's, I'm loving it.

  • Yeah.
