Dear Torsten,
Though I knew about all the words in the recording (relative pronouns), I hardly understood the audio text. Maybe the recording is a little too fast for me, but I think it's my problem in audio understanding. :cry:
Best regards, Diana |

hi
the audio sounds very good for learners with stress where necessary. She has some accent but clear pronunciation.
It is very learning centered as in teaching/lecturing as opposed to authentic or emotive language.
Good for anyone who wants very deliberate learning through listening, good for lower level learners. _________________ Please meet Stewart Tunncilff |

Hi Diana,
You could use either. You could also say 'comment' or 'comments'. In this construction: made some remark to the effect that ...I believe the singular is more common because it doesn't exactly refer to a group if remarks.

Hi Torsten... I really enjoyed the story as it is funny and rich with new phrases.But,when i listened to its audio;i realised that it was read too fast eventhough it is understandable.
Best wishes
Özge. |

Hello Alan, A cheerful good evening to you. Please solve my query:
Sentence Relative Compare: "He showed me a photo that upset me." "He tore up the photo, which upset me."
Let me know the difference please. I shall be very thankful to you.

Hello Alan,
I am trying hard to learn the proper uses of "Relative Pronouns", But I have got some questions. Please remove my confusion. What Compare: "I gave her the money that she needed." "I gave her what she wanted." Please tell me the difference between the two. Thanks a lot Teacher.

Dear Friends, I am very happy to find this site. I think it's "génial"!
I'm from Iran but I studied in France and now I'm back to Iran. When I was in university I had studied english as a forigne language but I think I have a lot to learn.
Tell me who can I know which my real level in this language and what I must do to improve my English.
It's important for my job (I'm a civil engineer). I thank you forward for your help.
