I'd love to hear your opinions in the comments

British English with Maria

Learning a language - accuracy or fluency?

Writing is great for your speaking, but it's not necessary! What's great about writing is that it gives you a way to LOOK at YOUR words. To see how things really are. Speech-to-text applications or many AI programs allow you SEE the words you SAY. That is so helpful.

It also gives you a way to practice WITHOUT getting feedback - which has some real benefits.

Welcome to the 10th episode of The Grammarian Podcast! In this milestone episode, we’re tackling a common issue many English learners face: the usage of "to" with verbs. Understanding when to use "to" and when to leave it out is crucial for sounding more natural and grammatically correct in English.

We’ll dive into:
- When to use "to" with verbs (after certain verbs, adjectives, and to show purpose)
- When NOT to use "to" (modal verbs, causative verbs, and verbs of perception)
- Common mistakes and how to avoid them
- Practical tips and exercises to help you put your knowledge into practice
