βOne of those important aspects you should remember before asking yourself "hell why I still don't feel confident when speaking english???"π§π
The fundamental condition of having a flow in speech is speaking freelyπ, without any fear, sometimes with extremes.π₯
American English is far more about this freedom and improvisation of the moments when you speak, than the classic British. This expressiveness that jumps out and emotion that you reflect into the conversation is no comparison to rule-accordingly trimmed encyclopedia-style phrases you are to learn from the regular student books.π€π

Hi there! Let's drop some imporfant wordsπππ
ACE - it can be both verb and a noun, and it means "to do smth really good, to be killing it".
Example: I'm gonna truly ace it at the concert and be dancing like never before!π΅πͺ©π
AIRHEAD - not the smartest person on Earth, honestlyπ
Example: If I were you, I wouldn't ask Jessica for help literally ever - she's just such an airhead!π«§π«§π«§π«₯
TO PULL AN ALL-NIGHTER - this great phrase is about student life and how students prepare for exams overnightπ©βπππ₯Ά
Example: The history exam is on Friday. So I'm pulling an all-nighter as always.
TO PUT SMTH ON THE BACK BURNERππ₯π°β³ - to put things off, delaying and postponing it till the specific urge pops up.
Example: I was thinking about starting a new project, but then a lot of other things got in the way, so I just put it on the back burner for some period.

Hi! It's time for tips and hacks which are super-important, if your goal is to speak fluent english.π₯β
Today let's discuss your visual perceptionππ and context-thinkingπ§ when reading. πππ
βοΈWhile reading a text your eyes and brain perceive the language in which the text is written, facts
βοΈwhen you don't understand a word or phrase, your logic and context-thinking start functioning, so you just guess the words
βοΈdon't use a dictionary while reading in english-it does no good for you, honestly.
βοΈPlease, don't get mad if you don't understand something- less translation, more word-guessing and context-thinking, and you're going to see progress really soon

Time for... new words! ππππ
No dictionary!πͺππ΅ Remember?
πββLet's see the examples:
The crux of the problem with loneliness is that you're uncomfortable with your own self.ππ§ π
The grocery store was overcrowded, so I was just elbowing people out to get to the cashier.π€·ββπ΅π΅
Lily was trying to stay friends with Zara and Jelly all at once, although they both had absolutely different goals and characters. Lily just didn't want to fight and decided to perform a balancing act.π¦©π€Έββ
You know, Tom drinks tequila every single night at bars. He's now on the bottle.πΎπΎπΎ
My best bet is that I'll learn up all the A1-arabic words by July!π―π

#usslang + what RUSSIAN HAS TO DO WITH IT πͺπͺπͺ
THROUGH THE WINDOW π§Ήπ€π«€
Here's the logic of the phrase: russian saying for "through the window" is V OKNO, right?ππ·πΊπ·πΊπ So the way americans hear it is FUCK NO. ππ ππ
That's why, when wanting to deny something or disagree, instead of being plain and rude with your swearingπ€¬π€¬π€¬, you may handle it metaphorically instead! π―π
Look here:
Nice film! Would you watch part2? - Nah, through the window.

πCUT OUT FOR - best fit, super suitable: ππͺ‘π
This new exercise is just cut out for me - I feel so comfortable doing it
πSMTH IS NOT ON - can't be accepted: π βββ
Ha! What are you doing?! Eating snacks laying in my brand-new bed ??π€¨π΅ It's absolutely not on!
πBE OUT FOR - to try:ππΊ
If you keep saying "it's impossible", I'm out to do this.
πDO A GOOD TURN - to help someone:πββππ
I decided to do him a good turn and give all the books and materials he asked me for.
πAN EGO TRIP - a person who talks a lot about oneself:π€©π©βπ¦³πββ
At first I thought he was such a humble person, but suddenly he turned out to be a real ego trip!

So, back to the flow-essential habits.πΊ
It's not ONLY about words and the way you've mastered your grammar that REALLY determine your fluency.π
It's much more about your speaking habits. π£
From listening and analyzing you do mention some features that are typical for the language in particular. πβ
The proofs and real practice will be in tomorrow's (already today's actually) videosβΊοΈπΈπ«Ά
