💡 FACT: “That” and “which” are often interchangeable.

❗️But not always … and grammar nerds will fight you on it.

“That” is restrictive → it limits or defines.

“Which” is nonrestrictive → it adds extra info (and needs commas).

Examples:

The book that has a red cover is mine. 📕 (There are multiple books; the red one is mine.)

The book, which has a red cover, is mine. 📕 (There’s one book, and oh btw—it’s red.)

✨ The difference is subtle, but it can change the meaning.

Do you ever write in English? What do you write: emails, essays, social media posts, a journal or something else?

I’ve helped students prepare for IELTS, FCE and CAE exams and learning how to organise a piece of writing is very important. Only part of the final grade is for grammar and vocabulary. The rest is for things like answering the question clearly and organising your ideas.

If you write emails in English, it’s also good to plan and organise what you want to say (unless it’s a really short email).

Of course, if we’re writing on a computer, we can edit and rearrange our text as often as we want to but if you are writing by hand, which still happens in some exams, planning is extra important.

Did you know that "to be" is the most frequently used verb in English? It has more than 50 different forms!

Tip for Improving English Grammar: To enhance your grammar skills, immerse yourself in reading. This practice will help you naturally understand the language's usage. You can read a variety of materials such as books, articles, or even social media posts. The more you read, the better your grammar will get.

Here are some additional interesting facts about English grammar:

The longest word in English is "pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis," a lung disease caused by inhaling volcanic ash. The shortest word in English is "I." The most common letter in English is "e." The most common vowel in English is "a." The most common consonant in English is "t."

🤬 Expletives Are No F*@KING Joke

In this short grammar lesson, we’ll be talking about expletives—but NOT the kind that means ‘profanities’ or ‘swear words.’

👨🏻‍🎓 In grammar, expletives are sometimes called “dummy pronouns.” They occur in clauses beginning with “it” or “there” when the “it” or “there” does not refer to anything. Although very few people we know are familiar with the term in the grammatical context, they are extremely common; we bet you used dozens of sentences today that began with expletives.

For example, the following sentences start with expletives:

It is vital that you arrive to the concert on time.

There were several raucous students at the football game.

😌 Fortunately, the rules for expletives are straightforward:

When “it” is an expletive, it always takes a singular verb.

It is finally time to go home! 🏃🏻‍♀️💨💨

It is amusing that children still believe in the Tooth Fairy. 🦷🧚🏻‍♀️

It was an exhausting undertaking to organize my parents’ garage.

When “there” is an expletive, the number of the verb is determined by the number of the noun phrase that follows:

There is a place we all call “home.” 🏡👪

There were hundreds of fans in line for autographs. 😍📝

There was an error in your calculations. 🧮

There were six spelling mistakes on your handwritten essay.

Give the following questions a try:

The meteorologist claims that it ( is | are ) going to snow this weekend in Los Angeles. ☃

When we looked at the expansive menu, we learned that there ( is | are ) more than 22 different types of fried chicken. 🍗

The college tour guide candidly admitted that there really ( isn’t | aren’t ) much to do on campus during the winter holiday. 🏫👻

Last year, there ( was | were ) a surprising increase in the number of students applying to small liberal arts colleges in Alaska.

According to Nan, it ( is | are ) painfully obvious and understandable that there ( has | have ) been more accidents on the busy street leading to the new shopping mall. 🚗💥🚙

💁🏻‍♂️ Here are the answers:

is

are

isn’t

was

is, have

I’ve had students who don’t understand when they hear a word but they know it when they see it written down. I’ve also had students who don’t understand a written word but they know it when I say it. Reading and listening at the same time can help students like these.

It can also help you if you have problems with listening, pronunciation or spelling. Try watching a video with subtitles, listening to a song and reading the lyrics or downloading an app like beelinguapp.

This suggestion is not for everyone though. If you want to reach a good level of listening, you have to turn the subtitles off eventually.
