One of the best ways to develop your English fluency is to learn well-known expressions. Binomial expressions are common English phrases that include a pair of words usually joined by " and" or " or" (e.g. black and white, plain and simple, more or less). The order of the words is usually fixed, and they are a single chunk of English vocabulary.

Binomial expressions (also known as "binomials" or "binomial pairs") are regularly used by native English speakers because they are often catchy and easy to remember.

There's an amazing variety of interesting and amusing expressions in the English language. Most are known by native speakers, but these English expressions are not commonly used in English coursebooks.

Develop your English vocabulary with these catchy expressions to sound like a native speaker. Just remember that these are generally informal expressions and more common in social situations.

Types of binomial expressions

Most binomials use "and" or "or" and there are common types of English binomial expressions, which include:

* Opposites (antonyms)

Opposite pairs of words create several common English phrases (e.g. hot and cold).

* Synonyms

Pair of words with the same or a similar meaning make up other memorable English phrases (e.g. peace and quiet).

* Rhyming or similar sounding words

Some binomial pairs use words that rhyme or sound similar (e.g. meet and greet).

* Repetition

There are pairs of words that use the same word twice (e.g. again and again).

* Alliteration

Some expressions use words that start with the same letter(s) (e.g. tried and tested).

30 tried and tested binomial English expressions

Here are 30 binomial expressions that are great for developing English fluency and to sound more like a native English speaker.

In this lesson, you're going to learn 59 positive personality adjectives in English. Check out 66 Negative Personality Adjectives here.

Let's look at some positive words to describe people.

There are four main categories of positive personality adjectives. Let's imagine each category as a different person. So let's meet them:

Positive Personality Adjectives #1
Nik - the people person
Nik is the friend who's great with people. See how popular he is? People like Nik:

There are lots of reasons why people like Nik.

Reason why people like Nik #1

Nik is very easy to be with. You can talk to him easily, and he's very friendly:

Polite - He's good at saying "please," "thank you," etc.
Likeable - He's easy to like.
Gregarious - He likes being with other people.

Reason why people like Nik #2

He thinks about you and how you feel:

*Sympathetic is a false friend: in many languages, it means "nice," but in English, it has a different meaning.

Reason why people like Nik #3

He doesn't choose one side when his friends disagree with each other:

Diplomatic - He is very good at trying to help people see both sides of a situation.
Impartial - He doesn't support just one side of a disagreement.

Reason why people like Nik #4

He's honest:

He likes giving and helping:

Generous - He likes giving things to people.
Helpful - He likes helping.
Kind - He cares about others and likes to help them, often emotionally.
Giving - He likes giving things to people - it's the same as "generous."

So that's Nik. What an awesome guy!

Positive Personality Adjectives #2
Alexa - the good worker
Alexa is a great worker. She's focussed and likes to get things done! She's the perfect candidate for a job. Bosses like her:

There are lots of reasons why Alexa is a good worker:

Reason why Alexa is a good worker #1

Alexa has a lot of natural personal qualities that make her a good worker:

Observant - She's good at noticing different things around her.
Quick-witted - She can think quickly and intelligently.
Patient - She can accept difficult situations without getting angry.
Dynamic - She has a lot of energy and can think creatively.
Bright - She's smart and intelligent.

Reason why Alexa is a good worker #2

She also "applies herself." This means she isn't lazy, and she tries to do the best work that she can:

Self-disciplined - She can control her own behaviour easily, and she's organised.
Resourceful - She's good at finding ways to solve problems.
Proactive - She doesn't wait for things to happen. She makes them happen!
Practical - She's good at finding the simplest and most efficient solution.

Finally, Alexa is someone who you can trust:

Dependable - If she says she will do something, she will do it.
Reliable - The same as "dependable"
Trustworthy - You can trust her to be honest and sincere.
Loyal - She will always be on your side.

So that's Alexa. A great worker but not necessarily great fun.

That's why we need to have Freya in our lives!

Positive Personality Adjectives #3
Freya - the fun lady!
We all need a Freya in our lives. She's the friend who makes us happy and who we can have fun with. She's the friend who puts a smile on our faces and helps us kill the stress from our working day.

Here's Freya at a party. Like Nik, she's very popular. But for slightly different reasons:

Freya is fun to be around for several reasons.

Reason why Freya is fun #1

First of all, Freya has a lot of energy. When people have a lot of energy, this energy often transfers to you. It's fun!

Energetic - She has a lot of energy.
Adventurous - She likes doing new and different things.
Enthusiastic - She shows a lot of excitement and interest in things.
Kooky - She's a little crazy. But in a fun way.

Reason why Freya is fun #2

She's also very a very sociable and happy person:

Reason why Freya is fun #3

She's also very funny:

Hilarious - She's very, very, funny.
Witty - She's funny and can tell good jokes in an intelligent way.
Humorous - She's funny and entertaining.
Amusing - She's funny and fun.

Reason why Freya is fun #4

Finally, you don't feel bad when you're with Freya. You feel like you can say anything, and she won't think badly of you:

OK. So Freya's good fun. But perhaps sometimes she can get annoying! There are times when we need to be serious.

This is a good time to try to be like Delia.

Positive Personality Adjectives #4
Delia - the leader
Delia is the person we know who will probably become successful. She knows what she wants in life, and she has the power to take it! She may not have so many friends, but she takes pleasure from her success.

Why will Delia succeed? There are two main reasons for this:

Reason why Delia is a good leader #1

She has so much power in her. She's an unstoppable force!

Ambitious - She has very high targets for herself in life.
Determined - She doesn't quit, even when things get hard.
Passionate - She believes in her work and her success on an emotional level.
Persistent - She never gives up!
Decisive - She can make a decision quickly and confidently.

Reason why Delia is a good leader #2

She's also not afraid of anything. Or anyone!

Courageous - She's brave.
Fearless - She has no fear.

Basically, she's like a superhero!

How to use personality adjectives

OK. So now you know 59 positive adjectives to describe people you like. Let's take a look at a few different ways to use adjectives.

Let's start with a simple adjective to describe someone:

funny

There are different ways we can use this word to describe a person.

If we simply want to describe the person directly, we can say:

She's funny.

or

She's a funny woman.

There isn't much difference between these sentences. The only difference is that you have the freedom to use different words to describe the woman in the second example:

She's a funny person.

She's a funny friend.

She's a funny boss.

But what if you don't know this person? What if you just have the feeling that she might be funny?

The first thing to ask yourself is this: What gives you this feeling? Is it about her appearance or just a general feeling?

If it's a general feeling, we can say:

She seems funny.

But if it's about her appearance (she might be a clown), then we can say:

She looks funny.

or

She looks like a funny person.

Remember:

she looks + adjective

she looks like + (adjective) noun

Remember these adjectives forever

Sometimes we meet people we don't like - "bad" people! Let's take a look at some negative words to describe someone you don't like.

1. Negative Adjectives for Selfish People

Tony believes he's more important than everyone else.

This is how he sees himself:

He thinks he's more important than you:

Arrogant - He thinks he's the best.
Big-headed - The same as "arrogant."
Self-centred - The world has to revolve around him!
Vain - He loves looking at himself in the mirror.
Boastful - He always talks about how brilliant he is and all the amazing things he does.
Pompous - Like "arrogant" but in a way that makes him look foolish, like this guy:

He tries to make you feel small:

He doesn't care how you feel:

He's aggressive:

Confrontational - He tries to challenge you, even when it's not necessary.
Defensive - He behaves as if you're attacking him, even if you aren't.
Hostile - He behaves like your enemy.
Belligerent - He's aggressive and hostile.
Bitchy - He makes small, sarcastic comments about you. They seem small, but they're designed to hurt you.
Nasty - He's not nice.
Bossy - He likes telling you what to do - like a boss.
Cruel - He actually enjoys seeing other people in pain and sometimes creates that pain.
Domineering - He likes to have control over everyone in every situation.

So yeah. Tony's not a nice guy.

2. Negative Adjectives for Difficult People

This is Amber, and she has a very negative personality.

You can't trust her:

Deceitful - She pretends to be your friend, then she'll stab you in the back (do something bad to you after you've started trusting her).
Dishonest - She's not honest.
Machiavellian - She intelligently uses different people against each other to get what she wants.
Sneaky - She does things that you don't know about that affect you negatively.
Untrustworthy - You can't trust her. She lies!

She hates change:

Dogmatic - She has strong beliefs and doesn't accept any view outside those beliefs.
Inflexible - When she's made plans, NOTHING can change them.
Intolerant - She doesn't like certain types of people and will never accept them. Sometimes this can be extreme, like racism, sexism or homophobia.
Narrow-minded - She has a small view of the world and doesn't accept ideas outside that view.
Stubborn - You will never be able to change her opinion on anything.
Obstinate - Like "stubborn," but a little stronger.
Pig-headed - Like "obstinate." But with a pig.
Fussy - She likes everything to be a certain way. If there's a change, she gets very upset or angry.

She's difficult to work with:

Indiscreet - Sometimes you don't want somebody shouting your bank balance out across a crowded office. Or you don't want someone to walk in the room with a bottle of whiskey when your Saudi client is visiting. But Amber will do these things.
Tactless - It's like "indiscreet" but with words. It means she sometimes says something stupid that might hurt someone, usually without realising it.
Unpredictable - You don't know what she's going to do next!
Vague - She doesn't explain things clearly.
Impatient - If she has to wait too long for anything, she gets angry. Maybe she'll walk away.
Unreliable - If she tells you that she's going to meet you at 7 o'clock, she probably won't. You can't trust her to keep her promises.

She behaves badly in relationships:

Oh ... I'm so glad we've finished with those two terrible people.

Let's never talk about them again. Deal?

OK. Time to find some less harmful characters.

3. Negative Adjectives for Lazy People

Andy is your stereotypical lazy guy. He doesn't work. He doesn't help around the house.

He also doesn't have any strong opinions and has a weak personality.

He's lazy:

He's weak:

Cowardly - He's afraid of everything.
Foolish - He doesn't have the brains to make the right decisions - so he makes bad decisions.
Gullible - If you told him that you'd just been invited to Tom Cruise's space station party on the moon, he'd believe you.
Indecisive - He finds it difficult to make decisions - so he often sticks with "no decision."
Weak-willed - You can easily convince him to do what he doesn't want to do. He's also probably addicted to something (alcohol, cigarettes, drugs, cheese - something).

4. Negative Adjectives for Emotional People

Finally, we have Sibel.

There are two bad sides to Sibel. On the one hand, she hates sharing or giving anything away, and on the other, she's difficult to be around.

She's always in a bad mood:

Quick-tempered - She gets angry very easily.
Grumpy - She's always in a bad mood and doesn't want to speak with you.
Moody - Her moods are unpredictable. Sometimes she seems fine, and then suddenly she's in a bad mood.
Pessimistic - She always sees the negative side of things.
Sullen - Like "grumpy."
Touchy - You can make her angry or upset very easily.

She's annoying:

Overemotional - When she's unhappy or angry, she's very unhappy or very angry.
Clingy - She wants to be with you all the time, and you just can't lose her. - unless you run away really fast when she's not looking.
Finicky - She's very fussy and wants everything to be the way she wants. She gets upset if you do something the "wrong" way.
Silly - She's not serious and can behave a bit like a child sometimes.
Vulgar - She's not sophisticated. Her jokes are often sexual and rude.

L'intérêt d'apprendre une langue étrangère avec Babbel pour les étudiants

Il existe une foule de raisons pour se lancer dans l'apprentissage d'une nouvelle langue en tant qu'étudiant:

L'une des premières est la communication avec des étudiants étrangers qui peuvent se trouver sur votre campus universitaire. La langue ne doit pas être une barrière pour vous faire de nouveaux amis et échanger avec eux sur vos cultures respectives.

De même, en tant qu'étudiant, vous serez probablement amené à effectuer un semestre ou une année dans un pays étranger dans le cadre d'un échange scolaire. Il devient alors indispensable de pouvoir vous débrouiller à l'étranger et de savoir tenir une conversation de la vie courante. Il faudra parler la langue locale pour demander un renseignement, prendre les transports en commun, faire les courses, discuter avec les élèves et les professeurs étrangers par exemple.

Si parler une langue étrangère est nécessaire lorsqu'on est étudiant, cela aide notamment pour les voyages de manière générale.

Votre séjour n'en sera que plus agréable : vous pourrez ainsi facilement parler avec la population locale et vous déplacer sans avoir à tout traduire à l'aide d'un dictionnaire.

En tant qu'étudiant, impossible ne pas évoquer votre avenir professionnel. De cette façon, il est extrêmement avantageux d'afficher la maîtrise de plusieurs langues sur votre C.V.

(adapted from an article by Emily Racette Parulski)

A coddle is a stew (= ragout) made in one pot with leftovers from the week (= food that was left from other meals), such as sausage, bacon, potatoes and onions. Its name comes from "coddling" the ingredients: they bubble for hours before it is ready to eat. It's one of the most popular dishes in Dublin.

Ouch! This is too hot.

You must wait before you choose a destination.

There is no-one here... for now!

Potatoes are the most important food in Ireland.

Now you must find your destination...

I arrive in Italy and head straight to a farm. After two weeks of Italian lessons on Duolingo, that is one of the few places where I am able to speak with any real authority.

On this farm, I hope there is a horse and a cow. Ideally, they will both be drinking milk or looking at birds. Otherwise, I'm not sure what I'd say about them. Perhaps I can pray for the presence of ducks or a girl with a mouse. Worst case scenario, I can comment on bugs, which I am led to believe will be everywhere: on the animals, by the water, in a pair boots. Duolingo believes not only that I will see these things while I'm in Italy, but when I do, I will be compelled to remark upon them like some demented narrator.

Where is the turkey? the app makes me shout into my iPhone while riding a cross town bus. Right here, I mutter. The turkey is here, reporting for duty.

After the farm, Duolingo takes me to lunch. This sounds promising, but turns out poorly, like most online dates do. The app teaches me nothing about placing an order or even recognizing when I am being asked to do so. Instead, it wants me to look around, see what's going on, perhaps hand a single plate to the waiter. My need to eat is secondary to being able to observe who else is in the restaurant and what they're up to.
The waiter is wearing a red shirt. The men talk to the cook. The cook has a knife. The men are leaving the restaurant.
I get the feeling that Duolingo believes every cafe is a crime scene waiting to happen. They are preparing me to be the only witness.

Other common topics of conversation available to me courtesy of Duolingo: horse ownership; things on sharks; lemon candy. When that gets boring, the app has presented me with a deep well of "I statements," such as: I do not eat candy at the zoo; I don't know the bear; I eat a lot of fish. According to Duolingo, it is customary to do each of these while wearing red socks, a point that should be noted whenever possible.

Another thing, while I'm at it: Sugar. My lessons indicate that this word should come up at least once a day, if not more. If it doesn't, I am encouraged to work it into every conversation myself. It's easy enough to do, once you understand the full range of possibilities. One can put sugar in coffee, tea or lemonade, sure. But it can also be used as a playground for ants. It can be fed to a turkey and poured on a table. For some reason, Duolingo keeps insisting that a group of men can write in it. I try to imagine that: A bunch of dudes etching messages in all-natural sweetener. Save me, I see them scrawl in the powder of my mind. Send better words.

I pass these lessons, one after the other, but Duolingo serves them up again and again. To keep myself engaged, I start piecing together random phrases. Suddenly there is a bee in a bathing suit or a shark riding a moped. Here comes that horse again. He is wearing boots and talking to an onion. It seems absurd, but is it really? Is a shark on a motorcycle any more ridiculous than, say, men writing in sugar? Is it weirder than a grown woman traveling to Rome in search of a zoo?

Perhaps the most annoying part about Duolingo is that it's working. It's only been a week or two, but still I can conjure up the word for bean and strawberry as I walk through the supermarket. Sitting at a coffee shop, I can skip from table to table, conjugating the verb "to drink." Impressive? Maybe. Useful? Not exactly. Much as I love to rattle off all the beverages to which I can add sugar and the animals that can be forced to drink them, I cannot yet order one myself. I cannot ask to pay in cash or request the WiFi password while I wait. I wonder why Duolingo is going on and on about that milk-drinking horse while I sit here at a café, thirsty, handing the waiter a lemon.

The real complaint that I have with Duolingo doesn't have anything to do with functionality, but practicality. The app may teach people a thing or two, but if the things are useless then what's the point? Why teach me how to say I am handing the banane to the boy when I am far more likely to give a suitcase to the flight attendant? I'm never going to buy green pants but I will definitely, at some point, need to purchase a Metro ticket. Tell me something: Who is this person who is more concerned about getting to and from the zoo, as opposed to the airport? Why isn't Duolingo teaching things that people will actually say?

Don't tell me "This is how you learn." I studied enough languages over the years to know how it's done. I understand that you have to start somewhere humble. Even still, I think we can all agree that a farm is not the ideal place. We don't have to learn the verb "to go" within the context of animals on four legs. The bus can go to the cityjust as easily as The cow goes to the water. I can look at a painting just as well as a horse. The lesson plan can stop sending me on a trip to the zoo when it knows full well that I'm going to Italy to visit a museum. You want to be helpful, Duolingo? Teach me how to say, How late is the train running? and No, sir I don't want to dance with you. Drill me on the phrase, You can't wear shorts in the cathedral. Now we're working on more than one level. Now we're talking!

So why am I studying Italian? The short answer is: Un ragazzo. I'll give you the full story later, when I have more sugar to write in.

Cette icône te permet de passer à la page suivante...

Intox sur le coronavirus

Tu vas d'abord devoir faire des recherches sur ce virus. Tu cherches dans ton réseau qui pourra te donner des infos sur le coronavirus... (clique sur ces différents profils)

Carine est spécialiste des épidémies dans une université de médecine à Paris. Pourrait-elle t'en dire plus sur le sujet ?

Roger est une des premières victimes du Coronavirus. Il est restaurateur en Picardie. Il pourrait te donner les symptômes de cette maladie !

Mathieu est un ami journaliste avec qui tu as fait tes études. Il vit dans l'Est où de nombreux cas ont été détectés. Il pourrait te donner plus d'infos !

En effet, mieux vaut faire confiance à un spécialiste sur le sujet qu'à une connaissance ou à un témoignage !

Niveau 1 validé !

Sur ton compte Facebook, des amis relaient cette une d'un grand journal. Une erreur se cache sur cette page.Observe attentivement en zoomant, trouve la faute et clique dessus !

Indice : N'hésite pas à passer ta sourissur les différentes parties du journal...

Libération est un des journaux hebdomadaires les plus connus en France. C'est bien son logo. Ce n'est donc pas une erreur sur le titre du journal !

Le covid-19 est une des appelations du coronavirus. L'erreur n'est donc pas dans ce titre !

Le titre fait peur et fait référence à un complot au niveau de l'Etat... Cela pourrait être un indice, mais après tout, le journal pourrait avoir un scoop.

Avant de relayer un scandale ou un scoop, même émanant d'un vrai journal, je vais vérifier la source de l'information !

Sur Whatsapp, ton amie Lisa te demande de regarder une vidéo strictement confidentielle " qui sera une bombe ".

(La vidéo peut être longue à charger !)

Intox sur le coronavirus

Comment vérifier cette information avant de l'envoyer à ton rédacteur en chef ?

Cette personne a parlé de l'institut Pasteur, d"un complot pour que les laboratoires gagnent de l'argent, d'un brevet EP 1 694 829 B1 déposé en 2003 à Hanoï...

Alors, ce brevet, vrai ou faux ?

VRAI

FAUX

Intox sur le coronavirus

Comme dans de nombreuses vidéos complotistes, il y a une vérité. L'institut Pasteur a bien déposé un brevetpour le coronavirus en 2003. Mais il s'agit d'un autre type de coronavirus, le SARS-CoV-1. De nombreux sites d'informations ont démenti cette infox !

Niveau 3 validé !

Intox sur le coronavirus

Ca y est l'armée est déployée pour forcer les gens à rentrer chez eux ! C'est ton tonton Rémi qui t'a envoyé une capture d'écran que lui a transmise son amie Cassie (tu peux cliquer sur l'image pour la voir en plus grand)

Intox sur le coronavirus

Avant d'envoyer cette image, tu peux vérifier si elle a bien été prise à Nantes et dans le cadre du confinement. Quel outil vas-tu utiliser ?

Tu retweetes immédiatement, pas moyen de laisser passer le scoop...

Tu fais une recherche dans Google Images

Tu demandes à l'auteur sa source

Intox sur le coronavirus

Aïe... Cette image n'a pas du tout été prise dans le contexte du coronavirus. Un de tes followeurs te le fait remarquer. Tu publies un démenti et tu cherches comment retrouver l'origine de cette photo !

Intox sur le coronavirus

Ce n'est pas un mauvais réflexe, mais quand on regarde bien le profil, ce compte n'a pas l'air très fiable. Il pourrait continuer à mentir. Cherche une autre méthode !

Intox sur le coronavirus

Dans la plupart des moteurs de recherches, il existe une recherche inversée par image. Dans Google > Images, il faut cliquer sur l'icône de l'appareil photo et de sélectionner la photo qui t'intéresse, tu verras si cette image a déjà été postée avant.Dans le cas présent, en faisant la recherche inversée, tu trouves des articles qui démentent l'info : l'image a bien été prise cette semaine, mais il s'agissait de simples maoeuvres militaires sans aucun lien avec le coronavirus !

Que faire si on a des symptômes du Coronavirus ? (Clique sur la bonne réponse)

Je suis les conseils d'Amy Ginhouse

Je prends du paracétamol, ils l'ont dit sur Toubissimo

Intox sur le coronavirus

Attention, les remèdes "naturels" ne sont pas forcément sans conséquences. Certaines huiles essentielles peuvent même être dangereuses pour certaines personnes ! Les conseils de cette star ne sont vraiment pas à suivre pour lutter contre ce virus !!!

Intox sur le coronavirus

Même si cela fait partie des recommandations pour soigner le virus, on ne prend pas du paracatémol sans un avis médical. Comme tous les médicaments, une surdose peut s'avérer très dangereuse pour ta santé !

Intox sur le coronavirus

Il ne faut appeler les urgences que si les symptômes du virus s'aggravent (des difficultés respiratoires, des signes d'étouffement/essoufflement ou de malaise). Ces services ont déjà énormément de travail durant cette épidémie, autant ne pas les surcharger !!

Intox sur le coronavirus

En cas d'apparition de symptômes de la maladie, toux et fièvre (ou sensation de fièvre), il est demandé de rester à domicile, d'éviter les contacts et d'appeler son médecin traitant (ou la permanence de soins de la région) ou de demander une téléconsultation, mais de ne surtout pas se rendre en cabinet.

Hey stranger !

You've been asleep for three days now...

If you feel any better, go to the King's palace to report your presence.

Ask for directions

Do this on my own

Excuse me, I need to go to the King's palace... Do you know where that is ?

Sure ! Follow me, I'll take you there.

Hey you ! I can tell you're not from here. Follow me please.

Follow the guard

Run away

It's

Get arrested

Leave the city

I heard about your crash. You're welcome to stay as long as you want.

Someone is coming...

Cool handshake !

Ask about the train you saw flying.

Ask about Wakanda.

So here is the lucky one ! Welcome to Wakanda !

Wakanda is a small nation in North East Africa. Our precise location needs to remain secret, but I can tell you that we're near Sudan and Democratic Rebuplic of the Congo.

For centuries, we have remained in isolation and are now considered the most technologically advanced nation of the planet. Birnin Zana is the capital and largest city.

"The most technologically advanced nation?"

Is there anything else you'd like to know ?

You like computers, don't you ?

Well, we're probably twenty years ahead of the rest of the world, technologically speaking. You might call me a nerd, but I really am a high-tech fan, and I do like our toys... they all run on vibranium here !

Vibranium. It's a rare metallic ore with energy-manipulating properties. It was first deposited here by a meteorite 1,000,000 years ago. We believe that the meteorite was a gift from the gods.

We decided to forge it into weapons. However the radiation of the meteorite also had a side effect, turning some of the tribesmen into "Demon Spirits".

Please tell me more !

Ok, now I get it.

A chief called Bashenga prayed to the Panther God to give him the strength to defeat these demons, becoming the first "Black Panther". Then he united the tribes to form the nation of Wakanda.

There's a movie about our origins. Wanna watch it ? It's a classic !

Where am I, exactly ?

Well, I guess it's quite different from where you live... We have great technology here, and it all runs on vibranium !

Good bye Princess !

I need to get back to work now.

Good bye, my friend. I wish you well.

Look for food

Walk around the city

Enough tourism for today, I really need to eat now...

Go to my daughter's ! She lives nearby and I can tell you she's a great cook ! I taught her everything she knows. Get on that train to the last stop. Then follow the smell !

Excuse me ma'am, I don't have any money, but I'm really hungry... Do you know where I could eat something ?

No problem ! None is left to starve, here in Wakanda. Take a sit, lunch is almost ready.

Wakandan bouillon rice

Good morning ! Your mama sent me here. I am really starving but I don't have any money...

Well it was delicious. Thanks again, bye !

Thank you ma'am ! This meal was a real treat ! How can I repay you ?

No need ! You know in Africa, it's tradition to share our food.

We don't use cars here, so you won't find any taxi. But the train will take you wherever you want !

Man, this is a big city ! I think I'll leave town for a while now, I could use a little quiet, to think about what to do next...

Hello ! I don't mean to make you feel uncomfortable, but I think you're all really beautiful. I love your jewels and your outfit !

Thank you ! You're sweet. It's a bit of a mix of everything. You know here in Wakanda, we draw our inspiration from all african fashions. We're proud of our continent and its ancestral know-how.

For example, you may have seen people with blankets, which are traditionally worn by Sotho people from the Kingdom of Lesotho.

Our female special forces are dressed like the Maasai people of Kenya.

You probably saw lip plates, just like the ones used by the Mursi and Surma women of Ethiopia

Our Queen Ramonda herself has a flared shaped hat, designed after the traditional Zulu married woman's hat.

The neck rings worn by the royal guards were also inspired by the South Ndebele people of South Africa.

You may also see women with the traditional Himba hairstyle, just like the Himba people of north-western Namibia and Angola

You sure know your cultural heritage ! Nice to meet you, bye !

Even our alphabet is inspired by Nsibidi : an ancient Nigerian language which dates as far back as the 4th century ! But you'd better go now, or I could keep talking all day !

I should probably go back to the city before the sun goes down...

Who comes now, daring to profane this sacred temple ?

I'm just a humble human. May I ask who you are ?

How dare you even ask who I am ! I should rip you apart right away !

To protect my people, I chose a champion : T'Challa, and offered him Heart-Shaped Herb, which gives him super strenght, in order to become the new Black Panther, leader of the Panther Clan, and King of Wakanda.

Humans call me BAST, the Panther God, Son of RA, Patron God of Wakanda.

Please don't eat me...

I summoned you for a reason. Go back to the royal palace and warn T'challa : N'Jadaka will try to take his throne and start a global war. If he succeeds, the planet shall fall into dark ages.

GO !!!

Is this all a dream ? Anyhow, there's just one way to go now... I must warn T'Challa, and maybe he'll help me in return...

I've been walking for hours now, I'm so tired ! I fear I might be lost...

The buildings in this city are really amazing... although they remind me of places I have seen before...

The tower I saw, when I first arrived...

...really looks like the Namemba Tower, in Brazzaville, in the Republic of the Congo.

These towers on the royal palace...

...reminds me of the Big Mosque in Timbuktu, Mali.

And this tower I saw this morning ?

Even those falls I saw from the plane !

They looked just like Oribi Gorge in South Africa !

The exact copy of Abidjan's pyramid, in Ivory Coast.

Even "Wakanda" sounds like "Wakamba", the name of a tribe from Kenya ! It feels like the whole African continent is represented in one city. Weird... But for now, I really need to find my way back to the palace. God I'm tired !

You're too late, my brother is about to confront N'Jadaka in a duel to the death...

T'Challa is killed during the fight, N'Jadaka becomes the new king.

Run away

Challenge N'Jadaka to a duel.

You were defeated too. You will rest now and forever in the Ancestral Plane, as a true Wakandan warrior.

This is where your journey ends.

Wakanda is a fictional universe and not a real place. However, it is said to have been inspired by East Africa.

Ryan Coogler, the director of Black Panther, claimed that his depiction of this fictitious state of Wakanda was inspired by Lesotho.

Lesotho is an enclaved country within the border of South Africa, it has a population of around 2 million. Its capital and largest city is Maseru.

Next

The Wakandan Maglev Train is a highly advanced magnetic levitation train used in Wakanda. It is used both for public transportation in the Golden City and for carrying Vibranium at high speed inside the Great Mound.

While we may not have Vibranium, Magnetic Levitation (Maglev) trains actually exist. There are only three countries in the world right now that have them : China, South Korea and Japan.

Dubai is actually working with Elon Musk to build a Hyperloop : a Maglev train that operates within a vacuum tunnel. Without any air resistance, it can reach speeds of up to 1200km/h.

In the movie, we can see Shuri remotely driving a car while T'Challa's battling the baddies.

While we're still some way from remote-piloted cars being commercially available, you may find self-driving vehicles in London and Singapore...

...and even self-flying taxis in Dubai, some time in 2021.

The reason for it : 90% of the production is under the control of the Chinese Congo Dongfang International Mining, which exports the raw material to China and to various multinationals, Apple for example, whose plants are in China, and the head office... not far from the Hollywood studios where Wakanda's tale was conceived.

The whole film says it: the power of Wakanda rests on vibranium.

Some critics wanted to see a parallel with cobalt. The Democratic Republic of Congo alone has 60% of the resources of this metal, absolutely indispensable for the manufacture of smartphones and electric cars.

Not to mention the working conditions in the mines of the south of the country, with shovels and picks, the repeated fatal accidents that occur there, this incredible wealth of natural resource has failed to enrich the country.

"We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe." - T'Challa

Please enable Javascript and cookies for Evie to work properly.

may not be suitable for children - must be agreed by parent or guardian

it learns and imitates, is social content and aims to pass the Turing Test

Evie is a learning AI. The things she says were learned from a human being at some point in the last 10 years. The information is stored in a database which Evie looks through every time she needs to say something. Evie figures out what to say using proprietary software created by Rollo Carpenter and Existor.

The Evie chatbot has had a huge impact on social media over the last few years. She is probably the most popular artificial personality on YouTube. She has appeared in several videos by PewdiePie, the most subscribed YouTuber in the world. This includes a flirting video with over 12 million views! Evie has been filmed speaking many different languages. She chats with Squeezie in French, El Rubius and El Rincón De Giorgio in Spanish, GermanLetsPlay and ConCrafter in German, NDNG - Enes Batur in Turkish, Stuu Games in Polish and jacksepticeye, ComedyShortsGamer and KSIOlajidebtHD in English. And that is a very small selection. Evie shares her database with Cleverbot, which is an internet star in its own right. Cleverbot conversations have long been shared on Twitter, Facebook, websites, forums and bulletin boards. We are currently working to give Evie some more artificial companions, such as the male avatar Boibot.

Evie's capacities go beyond mere verbal or textual interactions; the AI utilised in Evie also extends to controlling the timing and degree of facial expressions and movement. Her visually displayed reactions and emotions blend and vary in surprisingly complex ways, and a range of voices are delivered to your browser, along with lip synching information, to bring the avatar to life! Evie uses Flash if your browser supports it, but still works even without, thanks to our own Existor Avatar Player technology, allowing you to enjoy her to the full on iOS and Android.

Along with the continued development of our avatars, we are also investigating machine learning and deep learning techniques, and working on the creation of a short term memory for our bots. This will allow humans interacting with our AI to develop genuine human-like relationships with their bot; any personal information that is exchanged will be remembered by the bot and recalled in the correct context at the appropriate time. The bots will get to know their human companion, and utilise this knowledge to form warmer and more personal interactions.

"Dearest Creature in Creation..."

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Listen to this tricky little poem and you can practise your pronunciation and listening skills, and d on't worry if you don't know all the words and their different pronunciation. Even Lynne got Arkansas wrong the first time round!

In fact, this was the first poem Lynne ever recorded for the site, and she's re-recorded it three times now, just to improve the quality. This will probably be the last time, unless someone buys her a recording studio. You will still need a compatible player and an up to date browser. Feel free to link to this page, and to use the sound recordings in the classroom, but please don't hotlink to them or republish them.

Poem of English Pronunciation

Dearest creature in creation,
Study English pronunciation.
I will teach you in my verse
Sounds like corpse, corps, horse, and worse.
I will keep you, Suzy, busy,
Make your head with heat grow dizzy.
Tear in eye, your dress will tear.
So shall I! Oh hear my prayer.

Ivy, privy, famous; clamour
And enamour rhymes with hammer.
River, rival, tomb, bomb, comb,
Doll and roll and some and home.
Stranger does not rhyme with anger,
Neither does devour with clangour.
Souls but foul, haunt but aunt,
Font, front, wont, want, grand, and grant,
Shoes, goes, does. Now first say finger,
And then singer, ginger, linger,
Real, zeal, mauve, gauze, gouge and gauge,
Marriage, foliage, mirage, and age.

Query does not rhyme with very,
Nor does fury sound like bury.
Dost, lost, post and doth, cloth, loth.
Job, nob, bosom, transom, oath.
Though the differences seem little,
We say actual but victual.
Refer does not rhyme with deafer.
Foeffer does, and zephyr, heifer.
Mint, pint, senate and sedate;
Dull, bull, and George ate late.
Scenic, Arabic, Pacific,
Science, conscience, scientific.

Compare alien with Italian,
Dandelion and battalion.
Sally with ally, yea, ye,
Eye, I, ay, aye, whey, and key.
Say aver, but ever, fever,
Neither, leisure, skein, deceiver.
Heron, granary, canary.
Crevice and device and aerie.

Pronunciation -- think of Psyche!
Is a paling stout and spikey?
Won't it make you lose your wits,
Writing groats and saying grits?
It's a dark abyss or tunnel:
Strewn with stones, stowed, solace, gunwale,
Islington and Isle of Wight,
Housewife, verdict and indict.

Finally, which rhymes with enough?
Though, through, plough, or dough, or cough?
Hiccough has the sound of cup.
My advice isgive it up!

By the 1960s, [...] young people were finally given a voice and freedom to do what they wanted. The parents of the Sixties teenage generation had spent their youth fighting for their lives in the Second World War and wanted their own children to be able to have more fun and freedom

https://www.historic-uk.com/CultureUK/The-1960s-The-Decade-that-Shook-Britain/

Technology

One of the biggest, defining aspects of the 1960s was music. It wasn't until the early Sixties and the emergence of 'British Invasion' groups like The Beatles, that music truly began its revolutionary changes. The Beatles are an excellent example of how music influenced the lives of young Britons. Although they continued the rock and roll genre of the 1950s, by 1967 Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band became the turning point in music and inspired other musicians, such as The Beach Boys and The Rolling Stones, to experiment with new sounds and develop innovative pieces of music.

Music in the 1960s

Turning point: Un tournant

Stand up for: Défendre, se battre pour

Belief: Opinion (dans ce contexte)

Clothing in the 1960s

Fashion in the decade mirrored many of the social changes of the Sixties. Mary Quant became famous for popularising the mini skirt which became the symbol of 1960s fashion. The mini was designed to be free and liberating for women, allowing them to "run and jump". Her fashion designs used simple geometric shapes and colours which gave women a new kind of femininity. Women were free to wear more playful, youthful clothes that would have seemed outrageous ten years before. By the late Sixties, psychedelic prints and vibrant colours began appearing on clothes as the hippie movement gathered pace.

Mirror: Refléter

Epitome: Incarnation

Playful (vêtement): Léger

Youthful: Juvénile (plus jeune dans l'esprit)

Seem: Paraître

Technology in the 1960s

Technological advancements of the 1960s drastically changed how people spent their leisure time. The increase in employment in factories and increase in money allowed people to spend more on leisure activities. Colour television and pocket transistor radios allowed people to spend their free time listening to music and watching TV. Every teenager owned a transistor radio allowing them to listen to pop music on the move. The microwave oven shortened the amount of time women spent in the kitchen, allowing them more freedom and time to enjoy themselves. By the end of the decade, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin achieved the impossible by becoming the first men on the moon in 1969. It ended the decade on a note of optimism and the ability to dream for something bigger and better.

Leisure time: Temps libre

https://www.historic-uk.com/CultureUK/The-1960s-The-Decade-that-Shook-Britain/

Women in the 1960s

Feminism began to become a more influential ideology as more jobs became available to young women in the Sixties. This allowed them to move away from home and become more independent. The contraceptive pill became legalised for all women in 1967 and gave them the opportunity to broaden their hopes and dreams far beyond motherhood and marriage. In 1968 at a Ford factory in Dagenham, 850 women went on strike, arguing for equal pay with their male co-workers. This action resulted in the passing of the Equal Pay Act of 1970. Women were becoming increasingly involved in politics. For example, in 1968, Barbara Castle became the first and only woman to be appointed First Secretary of State and women began finding a voice in society and the running of the country.

Broaden: Élargir

Hope: Espoir

Motherhood: Etre mère

What happens when a frog's car breaks down? It gets toad away. If you're like me and laughed at this joke more than you probably should have, you know that words are fun. Bruce Worden, the man behind a blog called Homophones, Weakly, also shares this opinion. Like you might have already guessed, he's into homophones (each of two or more words having the same pronunciation but different meanings, origins, or spelling). In fact, Bruce likes them so much, he's even visualizing them!

Poking fun at the English language, Bruce uses minimalistic illustrations to prove that we just have to listen. For without context we couldn't know if someone is inviting us to a sail or sale.

English Grammar

A compound adjective is sometimes called a hyphenated adjective. What are they?

Let's look at the following sentences:

The first sentence contains a compound adjective.

The second sentence doesn't.

However the meaning of the two sentences are very different as can be seen in the picture below:

I saw a man-eating alligator.
We are describing the alligator. What type of alligator is it? It is one that eats men (or people).

I saw a man eating alligator.
This sentence without the hyphen sounds like a man is eating an alligator.
(man is the subject, eating is the verb, alligator is the object or thing that is being eaten).

As you can see, the hyphen (or lack of it) makes a big difference in the meaning of the sentence.

Before we explain in more detail why we put that hyphen between those two words in the first sentence, we need to do a quick review of Adjectives.

What is an adjective?

An adjective is a word that describes something.

A red car ( red is an adjective because it describes the car. How is the car? Red)

A big book ( big is an adjective because it describes the book. How is the book? Big)

See our other grammar notes about Adjectives in English. (LINK coming soon)

But sometimes we use more than one adjective to describe something.

Compound adjectives

A compound adjective is an adjective that contains two or more words.

In general we put a hyphen between two or more words (before a noun) when we want them to act as a single idea (adjective) that describes something.

I live in an English-speaking country.

English-speaking is an adjective (used to describe the country). We use a hyphen to connect the word English with speaking to show that it is one adjective (or one idea).

This adjective with two words joined by the hyphen is called a compound adjective.

Some more examples of compound adjectives are:

Our office is in a twenty-storey building.

I have just finished reading a 300-page book.

He is a well-known writer.

There are many types of Compound Adjectives. Here is a list of the most common types:

Periods of Time

When we have compound adjectives using a number + a time period, that word referring to a time period is in singular form and is joined to the number with a hyphen.

I work eight hours every day --> I work an eight-hour day

I'm going on vacation for three weeks --> I have a three-week vacation

There was a delay of 5 seconds --> There was a five-second delay

Notice how we normally write the number as a word, not in numerical form.

Adverbs and Compound Adjectives

Adverbs modify a verb.

How does she walk? Slowly. Slowly is an adverb that modifies (or describes) the verb.

Adverbs can also be used to modify an adjective.

It is very hot today. (Very is an adverb)

She is extremely intelligent. (Extremely is an adverb)

Notice how we do not put a hyphen between an adverb and an adjective (not even before a noun).

Adverb + Past Participle

However when we have an Adverb + past participle, we put a hyphen between the two words to make it a compound adjective.

This is a brightly-lit room.

She is a well-known actress.

We live in a densely-populated city.

Noun + Past Participle

When we have a noun + past participle, we put a hyphen between the two words to make it a compound adjective.

Noun + Present Participle

When we have a noun + present participle, we put a hyphen between the two words to make it a compound adjective.

Noun + Adjective

When we have a noun + adjective, we put a hyphen between the two words to make it a compound adjective.

Adjective + Noun

When we have an adjective + noun, we put a hyphen between the two words to make it a compound adjective.

Adjective + Past Participle

When we have an adjective + past participle, we put a hyphen between the two words to make it a compound adjective.

Adjective + Present Participle

When we have an adjective + present participle, we put a hyphen between the two words to make it a compound adjective.

Compound Adjectives with Proper Nouns

A proper noun is the name of something or someone (e.g. John, Susan Sanders).

Compound Adjectives made from Proper nouns don't need a hyphen though must have capital letters.

I bought the James Jackson tickets for us.

James Jackson is a compound adjective describing the tickets (What type of tickets? James Jackson tickets). Since the adjective is a Proper noun, we don't need a hyphen between the two names.

How do we know when to put a hyphen?

If you can use the word "and" between the two adjectives or words, then a hyphen isn't necessary.

She has a big blue book.

(Big and Blue are adjectives)
Can we say: She has a big and blue book. (Yes, it is possible)

He is a world famous singer. (Is this correct?)

Can we say: He is a world and famous singer. No, it doesn't sound correct so we need a hyphen to join the words world and famous:

He is a world-famous singer. (Correct)

Also, look at the following:

It's an old coal-mining town

Notice how we didn't put a hyphen between the word old and coal. If we had have done that, we would have been referring to old coal, as in coal that is old. We want to emphasise that the town in old and not the coal.

Here we can say it is old and a coal-mining one.
