How To Use English Words Twice For Emphasis


Listen Later

You may have noticed that in my English lessons I sometimes will say a word twice for emphasis. I might say, "This lesson is going to be really really fun!" or "This is a very very special English lesson!"

This might be a little bit confusing when you're learning English. How do you know when you're supposed to use two words in a row to emphasize something? Well in this English lesson I'll give you plenty of examples of how a native speaker would do this.

Not only do we use two words in a row to emphasize something, we also use two words with an "and" in the middle to describe how something is changing. I'll be sure to give plenty of examples of this as well in this English class.

I hope you enjoy the video very very much, and I hope continue to make really really good progress as you learn English!

Have a great day!
