I'm sorry. I was not on a trail in New Hampshire when I made this video. I was at my house. 😀 Americans say "sorry" all the time. In this slow English lesson, I explain some of the reasons Americans might say "sorry" and there are some reasons you might not realize. We don't just say "sorry" in English when something is our fault, we also say "sorry" when we hope things will get better for you, like, if you are going through a difficult time. I hope you learn a little something from this English lesson in slow, clear English.    🇺🇸  🇬🇧  Follow this link for bonus credits from Italki for online English lessons after your first purchase: https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1355613&u=2346050&m=70611&urllink=&afftrack=   🔷 Link to YouTube video: https://youtu.be/umwTsI18KyQ 🔷  Follow me on Instagram for mini-mini lessons: https://www.instagram.com/americanenglishwiththisguy/   🔷 To become a member, here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCakDTg9dhhAsr3WmHyJDa-g/join   🔷  Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/americanenglishwiththisguy

In this English lesson, I explain how Americans celebrate Columbus Day or Indigenous Peoples’ Day. In recent years, the name of this three day weekend or long weekend has become pretty controversial. Some Americans believe that Christopher Columbus is a great man of history and should be celebrated. Other Americans believe that the people who were here before Christopher Columbus “discovered America” or arrived in America should be the ones remembered or celebrated during this second weekend in October. Some English vocabulary words I explain are: “air quotes,” indigenous, long weekend, three day weekend, and British holiday vs, American holiday. I would love to hear your comments about what you think this weekend should be called in the United States. 🇺🇸  🇬🇧  Follow this link for bonus credits from Italki for online English lessons: https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1355613&u=2346050&m=70611&urllink=&afftrack=   🔷  Follow me on Instagram for mini-mini lessons: https://www.instagram.com/americanenglishwiththisguy/   🔷 To become a member, here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCakDTg9dhhAsr3WmHyJDa-g/join   🔷  Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/americanenglishwiththisguy

Link to the video: https://youtu.be/WjBSvJ8ckQc LEARN ENGLISH PHRASES WITH “CURVE”. Yasen from Iraqi Kurdistan asked a great question about "flattening the curve" and "life throwing a curveball."   A huge shoutout to all the members. I was able to buy a new GoPro. I shot the video on it, but need to work out some of the color settings. A few parts of the video were darker than I like, but other than that it was pretty fun to use.     🔷  Follow me on Instagram for mini-mini lessons: https://www.instagram.com/americanenglishwiththisguy/ 🔷 Link for bonus credits on iTalki: https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1355613&u=2346050&m=70611&urllink=&afftrack=

I give examples for each one.  At the end of the video, I explain how my first week went as we headed back to school here in the US.
