Welcome back to Linggoni English. In
0:03
this video, we will use the verb be to
0:06
describe feelings.
0:08
For example, I'm happy.
0:11
I am happy.
0:15
I'm sad.
0:19
I'm hot.
0:22
Brian is happy.
0:24
Brian's happy. Brian's sad.
0:30
Brian's hot.
0:34
Emily is tired.
0:37
Emily's tired.
0:39
Emily's hungry.
0:43
Emily's cold.
0:46
You're tired.
0:49
I am tired.
0:51
He's tired.
0:53
You're happy.
0:55
I am happy.
0:57
She's happy.
0:59
Are you hot?
1:01
Yes, I am.
1:03
He's hot.
1:05
Are you cold?
1:06
Yes, I am.
1:08
She's cold.
1:11
Am, is, and are come from the verb be.
1:17
So, I am happy. You are happy. He is
1:23
happy. She is happy.
1:27
You can say I am hungry. But I'm hungry
1:32
is more common.
1:35
So for example, I am often becomes I'm.
1:39
I'm hungry.
1:43
You are often becomes your.
1:47
You're hungry.
1:50
She is often becomes she's
1:54
she's hungry.
1:57
He is often becomes he's
2:01
he's hungry.
2:04
When you answer a question, you can say
2:07
yes or yes, I am. But you cannot say
2:14
yes, I'm.
2:16
This is the same for you, she and he.
2:21
For example, you can say yes, you are,
2:26
but not yes, you're.
2:29
You can say yes, he is, but not yes,
2:34
he's. And you can say yes, she is, but
2:39
not yes, she's.
2:42
How do you feel? Are you happy?
2:47
Are you sad?
2:49
Are you hungry?
2:51
Are you tired?
2:54
