Our favourite mistakes #156: Vocabulary & Grammar
▶️ Please translate:
Ko’p odamlarga pul yetishmaydi. Ularning boshqa yo’li yo’q.
❌ Perhaps you think it is:
Many people lack of money. They have no another way.
✅ Well, it should be:
Many people lack money. They have no other way.
❓Why?
❗️When lack is a verb it is NOT followed by of. We add of only to the noun, i.e. “There’s a lack of water.”
❗️No is a determiner here and there’s no need for the article an in another.

Travelogue 🇬🇧UK #5: Advertising
▶️ Advertising is a mirror of society. What are people's needs? What are some big issues? What makes good money? Let's take a look:
🔹London's helicopter ambulance doesn't get enough funding (=money), so they turn to (=ask) the public for help.
🔸Islamic Relief is a Muslim charity (=doing good) organisation. There seem to be a lot of Muslims around.
🔹People have a soft spot for (=like) dogs, so much so that they are willing to donate (=give money to help) money for dogs.
🔸Why urge (=tell sb to act) people to vote? What could be the reasons for not voting? Are people just lazy or dissatisfied?
🔹Suicide seems to be a problem. How come? Isn't life really great in Great Britain?
🔸Brits are a humorous bunch (=group of people), you can tell by the puns (=playing with words), although this "muffin" one is a bit low-key (=low level).
📍London, Bristol / UK
