The problem is not that you’re lazy or that your memory is bad. Real learning has two parts: learning/studying (putting information in) and retrieval (bringing it back out). Most learners only do the first part, so the information “leaks” out like water from a broken container. After watching, test yourself: use Recall, Review, and Relate on this lesson and post your answers in the comments.]]> https://www.engvid.com/recall-review-relate-how-to-remember-everything-you-study/feed/ 1 https://www.engvid.com/s-or-of-the-easy-way-to-know/ https://www.engvid.com/s-or-of-the-easy-way-to-know/#comments Tue, 29 Sep 2026 06:53:40 +0000 https://www.engvid.com/?p=10109 ’s and of in English!

This is called inversion, and this advanced English grammar lesson will help you understand it, and use it in your own writing. You will find inversion used most often in dramatic writing or films set in the past. In this class, I will show you eleven common inversion examples including “never have I”, “only then did I”, “not only is”, “little did I know”, “no sooner had I”, and more. After the lesson, try writing your own dramatic sentence in the comments using one of these structures.]]> https://www.engvid.com/advanced-english-grammar-word-order-inversions/feed/ 3
