#65 Our favourite mistakes: Grammar
▶️ Please translate the following sentence:
Afandi Aprel hazillar kunida o‘zining hamma do’stlariga hazil qildi.
❌ Perhaps you think it is:
Afandi fooled his all friends on April Fools’ Day.
✅ Well, it should be:
Afandi fooled all (of) his friends on April Fools’ Day.
❓Why?
❗️ “His” and “all” cannot be combined in this order. “All” is a predeterminer and stands before “his” but not behind it. The “of” is optional.
❗️ Not sure what determiners are? Determiners in English include articles (a, the), demonstratives (this, that), quantifiers (all, some, many), numerals (=numbers) and possessives (my, her, their). Determiners always come before nouns or noun phrases.

#31 Travelogue Germany: Berlin
Berlin has changed a lot over the years as it became the capital of reunified Germany. It’s a very creative city (see the pictures).
1990-2000: The wild years
The economy of ex-communist East Germany collapsed and many Easterners went to the West for work. East Berlin was full of abandoned houses and life was cheap. Subcultures thrived in squatted houses and hidden, illegal bars.
2000-2010: “Poor but sexy”…
… is how the mayor famously described Berlin. The city’s easygoing atmosphere had become very popular. It was the “party capital” and Berlin set new trends in art, music and film.
2010-2020: Gentrification
One district after the other became more expensive and less exciting. Investors bought up lots of houses and ordinary people could no longer pay the high rents.
---Vocab---
📍reunified = together again 📍subculture = culture of one group in society 📍thrive = be strong and healthy 📍squat = illegally occupy a house

💡 Content: Khan Academy is an immensely useful resource for anyone with a professional background and/or interest in a particular subject.
