The main points of this lecture : 1.Change the synonyms. 2. Move parts of the sentence. 3. Change the parts of speech. 4. Change affirmative to negative or vice versa. 5. Combai sentences. Tips : also you can change active to passive or singular to plural. * And the paraphrase will be in your own words. Not the others. Thank you very much from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

Thank you for giving me a lesson for paraphrasing. I really thank you for your hard work. Below is my answer to your PRACTICE. I would really appreciate it if you could be kind enough to give me some comments. 1. Today, most smokers live in poor nations, while they did in rich nations previously. 2. Students' command of paraphrasing depends on their grammar and vocabulary. 3. The first child likely leads more autonomous and prosperous life. 4. Facing COVID-19, many obese people with diabetes and/or heart problems have had more troubles in U.S.

@LearnAcademicEnglish 2 жыл бұрын

I'm so glad that you found it helpful. Your answers are excellent!!! I would change a couple of small things in #3: You wrote "The first child likely leads more autonomous and prosperous life." Add "a" to say "a more autonomous and prosperous life." It might be more clear also to say "The first child is more likely to lead...," like this: The first child is more likely to lead a more autonomous and prosperous life.

All communication is about paraphrasing. We learn and we repeat what we learn as we express the concepts. If we can exercise our brains by using the process you teach in this video, we can all be better communicators and strengthen our mind power.

@LearnAcademicEnglish 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Martin, you are correct that all communication we do with paraphrasing in someway or another. When we hear what someone says and repeat it back to someone else, we are paraphrasing.

Independent and successful people are more likely to be the children who are first born in the family. 4. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, people who live in the United States who suffer from diabetes, heart disease and obesity have become more threatening. Looking forward to your feedback! Have a nice day.

I tried to do the practice given by you .Please point my mistakes if there's any . 1.Many of the smokers used to be living in affluent countries in the past. But at present maximum smokers reside in developing countries. 2.More and more command over grammar and vocabulary will make paraphrasing easier. 3.First kids of families are more likely to become self supporting and victorious later. 4.Covid-19 worldwide outbreak has been more exigent due to a greater number of population afflicted by diabetes, heart disease and fatness.

@LearnAcademicEnglish Жыл бұрын

Hi Satish, These are great! Here are a few suggestions: You wrote: Many of the smokers used to be living in affluent countries in the past. But at present maximum smokers reside in developing countries. My correction: Many of the smokers used to be living in affluent countries in the past, but at present, most/a greater number of smokers reside in developing countries. You wrote "fatness," but we always say "obesity." You wrote 'victorious," but we only use that word for a war or battle. You should use "successful" instead.

You are a wonderful presenter, as you are very pleasant and well-spoken. I'm going to use the first part of the video as a resource for my students, thank you. I am a little concerned that the content after the 6-minute mark ("Toolkit") is a little too close to plagiarism to teach my students.

@LearnAcademicEnglish 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for your input. Because this video is designed for English learners, I go through each one of the tools separately but conclude with reminders that using only one tool is not enough. In order to paraphrase, the sentence needs to be in one's own words, which can be achieved by using a combination of tools (and adding a citation, which I cover in this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hsVoq5yA2Z2pYY0.html). I will take another look and change the description in the video to make it clear. Thanks again :)

1. In earlier days most of the smokers lived in wealthier countries but in the present days it's in developing countries. 2. Paraphrasing will be much easier if the students acquire good knowledge of grammar and vocabulary. 3. It is said that the successful and self living child in a family will be the first one, who is born to their families. 4. Due to Covid 19 panademic situation in US too many people are suffering health issues has been fell in to greater difficulties.

@LearnAcademicEnglish 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Aneesh, Good job! A couple of tips: in #3, the word "self living" is not used in English. You can use independent or self-reliant. Sometimes we keep the original word because there is not a good enough synonym. Also, the grammar in #4 is not clear because there seem to be 2 main verbs without clear punctuation (are suffering ... has been fell). Try this: Due to Covid 19 pandemic situation in the U.S., too many people are suffering health issues and have fallen in to greater difficulties. Thanks for leaving a comment!
