Pay attention, because there are some complex grammar rules here! You’ll also learn how to properly use ‘say’ and ‘tell’.
Test yourself with the quiz:

TRANSCRIPT

Hi, there, guys. Welcome back. We’re going to do a lesson today on using indirect speech. What does that mean? Well, this is where we are relating something that someone said. I’m going to talk you through the differences between indirect speech — or reported speech — and direct speech, using these little things called “quotation marks” or “speech marks”. I’m going to give you some useful vocab for using reported speech, and showing you the difference between “tell” and “say”. I hope it’s useful.

So my friend Billy, he’s not feeling very well today. So he says, “I’m feeling sick.” Now, if I’m using direct speech, that’s where I use my quotation marks, my speech marks. I would write it like this: Billy said — with a little comma — “I’m feeling sick.” — end of quotation marks. But if I’m using reported speech, this is I don’t use his exact words, and I don’t use these quotation marks. So I could say in reported speech: Billy said that he was feeling sick. I have used the same words here. But look. I’m using “said that” and no quotation marks.

Now, what are the differences between reported speech and direct speech? Well, direct speech uses the present. Look here. “I’m feeling sick.” “I am” is obviously in the present. Whereas reported speech is going to use past. He said he was feeling sick.

So these are how we put some verbs into the past — irregular verbs. Here, look. “I am” goes to “he was”. “Am” goes to “was”. “Are” would go to “were”. So if Billy said, “You are a jerk”, in reported speech, it would be, “Billy said that you were a jerk.” “Do” and “does” would go to “did”. So if Billy is saying, “I do play snooker”, it would be in reported speech, “Billy said that he did play snooker on Tuesday last week.” Okay? “Have” and “has” would go to “had”. “Will” is going to go to “would”. “Can” is going to go to “could”. Okay? Difficult spellings. Doesn’t sound how it’s spelled. And then, with your regular verbs, it’s going to go to + ed. So Billy might say, “I want to party tonight.” If I’m going to do reported speech, it would be, “Billy said that he wanted to party tonight.” Okay? I hope you’re with me so far. I hope you’re understanding. Good, good, good.

Now, “tell” is a little bit different to “say”. So when I use the verb “tell”, I know whom the person is talking to. For example, “Billy told me that you were a jerk.” So “talking to me”, so I use “tell”. I know who the person is talking to. But when I use “say”, we don’t know who the person is talking to. So “Billy said that you were kissing at school.” Okay? “Said” — it doesn’t say “me”. It doesn’t say “said me”. It just says “said”. Okay? So we don’t know who the person is talking to. Obviously, he’s probably talking to me, but it doesn’t say that here, so I need to use “said”. Okay?

Now, some interesting verbs to make your writing a bit more fluent, a bit more interesting to read. I could use “inform”. Okay? This is just going to take — so if I’m using reported speech, remember I’m going to put it into the past. So here, it’s a regular verb, so I’ll add -ed. “Billy informed me that he was going to be late for my lesson.” We’ve already done “said”. “Billy said that he was feeling sick.” “Billy answered with the correct answer.” Okay? So this is regular. I’m going to add in my -ed. “Billy reported to me that Sandra was behaving badly.” You’re a naughty girl, Sandra. Billy has reported you. Now, this one’s going to go irregular, “reply”. “Billy replied that the lunch was disgusting.” Okay. How do we form this? Well, we take off the Y and put -ed, -ied. “Billy replied that the lunch was disgusting.” Now, “respond”. This is regular. “Billy responded that he was happy to be alive” — -ed, okay? I’m playing around here. So “suggest” is going to be -ed and “persuade”, -ed. What do these mean? “Inform” means “give information”. You know what “said” is. “Answer”, question, answer. “Report”, like, report, give some information again. “Reply” is question, answer. “Respond” is just answer. “Suggest” is like — it’s like a whisper. “I suggested to the bus driver that he put his foot on the accelerator.” “Suggest” — it’s an idea, a suggestion. And “persuade” is when you’re persuading, “Come on, everybody. Make sure you do the quiz after this. You know where to find it, www.engvid.com.” That is the end of today’s lesson.

I WAS SO HOT IN THIS VIDEO! I look so sweaty :’) I have explained many times before but I will explain again: We are currently in temporary housing and there is a heatwave in the UK. The house is designed to keep warm in winter, but unfortunately the summer is unbearable. We don’t have air conditioning in the UK, and buildings are not designed to withstand heat – they are designed to keep heat trapped inside. I can’t open a window because it opens out onto a noisy road and audio quality is very important for my students. In a month the temperatures should drop a little and I will be back to being sweat free :’)

9 Amazing Google Chrome Extensions That’ll Improve Your Traffic | There are a lot of Chrome extensions out there that most marketers don’t use. I’m actually surprised by how few of my friends and colleagues take advantage of Chrome extensions that can help them with their marketing and traffic generation. Today I’m going to share nine amazing Google Chrome extensions that will improve your traffic.

____________________________________________

The first Chrome extension I have for you is SEOquake.

This is a great tool for understanding what your competition is ranking for in the organic search results. It also gives you a great idea as to what is displayed, and what paid ads your competitors are running, and which keywords they’re targeting.

Now the second Chrome extension I have for you is a MozBar.

It provides details like LinkedIn analysis, domain authority. It also has a page analysis feature that allows you to get an overview of the title, the description, and even the schema.org markup of a page. And they have many more page level features as well. They also have link metrics and that shows you page authority, domain authority, which I already mentioned, and the number of linking root domains to any given page that you’re searching.

The third Chrome extension is a BuzzStream Buzzmarker.

It’s an amazing tool for outreach, networking, guest posting and link building. This will crawl any site that you visit and pull out the contact details for the people associated with the site. This will help you find editors, reporters, content marketers.

The next extension, TubeBuddy.

Amazing extension for your video marketing strategy. When you’re viewing any video on YouTube, it’ll show you the tags, the view counts, and so much more. Even better, when you upload your own video, it’ll help suggest tags to you and help you optimize the metadata associated with the video that you just uploaded.

The fifth extension I have for you is Buffer.

This is great for personal branding and growing your authority as you can seamlessly post content to your followers as you browse and read your favorite blogs.

A lot of people are like, “Oh, I’ve got to update my Twitter profile, my Facebook. I got to keep going to all these platforms and manually put in content.” Wouldn’t it just be easier if you’re just reading content, you click a button and boom, you can schedule it for later, and it goes into your promotional calendar?

The sixth extension I have for you is Grammarly.

It’s actually my favorite extension period on Chrome altogether. The reason I love this is when I’m doing marketing based emails, or any work, and I do a ton through my email inbox, or even I’m writing a blog post in WordPress, it’ll tell me any spelling mistakes. Now, Grammarly does have a paid version as well. I use a free one.

The seventh extension that you’ve got to check out is BuzzSumo.

It’s an amazing extension for content creators. It’ll give you idea of what content works in your niche. For example, any page you visit, let’s say a competitor site, it’ll tell you the social media engagement, how many social shares, unique pages and other items like that, and even backlinks.

It helps you target in real time what type of content you should be producing versus what kind of content you shouldn’t be producing.

The eight Chrome extension I have for you is Save to Pocket.

This is super important in a role where there’s endless amount of information. It’s easy to get distracted while researching for your next article or building out your content strategy. Having a browser with dozens of tabs open can be distracting and hurt your productivity.

And last but not least, a Chrome extension that you should use is Check My Links.

This tool is essential for a link building strategy. It’ll show you which links are working properly and which ones are broken for any page that you visit.

Broken links is one of the easiest and simplest ways to convince people to link to you, and this extension will help you find all those broken link opportunities.
