I'm from New York but I've

lived in Canada for many years and what

I like about Canada is the diversity,

nature, wildlife, the fact that they're

still working on their transit system

which was kind of an imitation of

New York, I should mention. Of course,

freedom of speech, tolerance is key, and

those are the things I like about Canada.

English for Spanish Speakers 31 - 'people is' or 'people are'? (with subtitles) - Duration: 1:51.

Hello again everyone, and welcome back to

'One English Tip in One Minute for

Spanish Speakers' where each week I

discuss, in detail, one common English

mistake made by those who speak Spanish

as a mother tongue...and this is video

number 31.

Once again, I appreciate the fact that

you are working to improve your English,

and I totally admire and respect it as

well. Please keep it up. In these

videos, I show you a slide and on the

slide there are two sentences: One is the

correct way that someone who speaks

English has a mother tongue would say it,

the other is the wrong way that someone

who speaks Spanish as a mother tongue

would say it. You need to decide

which one is correct. Please do that

now. Read the sentences, listen to me read

the sentences, think about your answer --

after you pause the video -- and I will

discuss the answer in the slide that

follows this slide.

In my perfect English teaching

utopian world, everybody got this right...

or, everybody got it wrong and then they

learned and they never forget it after

watching this video. But I know that's

not reality. If you got it wrong - or you

just happened to guess right -- I hope you

understand now why we say it the way we

do...and I hope you study to get past

this mistake. To help you with that, I've

given you three sentences you can study

from. Study the sentences in their

entirety, -- review them, review them and

review them -- and put them into practice

through speaking or writing or both...and

just keep that process going until

you've got it.
