yesterday somebody asked me hey Michael00:03:07
can you teach us the difference between00:03:10
coulda woulda and shoulda and I thought00:03:13
hey that's a great idea if you have a00:03:17
suggestion for an English lesson you can00:03:21
always leave me a comment here at happy00:03:25
English or on social media that's right00:03:29
all right so I could have eaten cake I00:03:35
would have eaten cake I should have00:03:38
eaten cake what do these mean all right00:03:43
well first before we get to that we have00:03:46
to talk about the conditional yes that's00:03:50
right if you like to study grammar or00:03:53
you don't like to study grammar um you00:03:56
probably know about something called the00:03:58
third conditional a lot of English00:04:02
teachers like to use those grammar words00:04:03
I don't but that's what it's called if00:04:07
if I had known about this special I00:04:12
could have eaten cake what does that00:04:15
mean so if I had known means I didn't00:04:21
know that but if I did that's the00:04:26
meaning I'm gonna give you an example00:04:29
that's not here on the whiteboard on the00:04:31
chalkboard on the JPG board if I had00:04:39
known about the exam I would have00:04:41
studied it's a pretty common grammatical00:04:45
pattern that comes up in the the00:04:48
certainly the TOEIC and the00:04:50
TOEFL exams and probably other English00:04:52
exams too so if I had known about the00:04:56
exam I would have studied what does that00:04:59
mean if I had known about the exam it00:05:02
means I didn't know about the exam I00:05:04
would have studied it means hmm I'd like00:05:11
to study i want to study for exams and00:05:14
based on the condition of me knowing00:05:17
that i would have studied so that's the00:05:22
grammar right so what's the difference00:05:25
between could have would have and should00:05:27
have well i went to a restaurant last00:05:31
night and when I was leaving the00:05:34
restaurant after dinner and after having00:05:38
apple pie for dessert I saw a sign and00:05:43
the sign said free cake with every meal00:05:48
I didn't know that the restaurant00:05:52
offered free cake come on free cake you00:05:56
have to tell us this stuff mr.00:05:58
restaurant owner if I had known about00:06:02
that if I had known about the special I00:06:05
could have eaten cake I could have eaten00:06:09
cake means that's one of the choices for00:06:14
me in the past if I had known about this00:06:19
special I would have eaten cake would00:06:22
shows only one choice only one things00:06:27
absolutely I yes cake what cake is my00:06:33
choice if I had known about the special00:06:36
I would have eaten cake and then the00:06:40
last one is should have I should have00:06:45
eaten cake not pie so if you say I00:06:50
should have studied for the test it's a00:06:56
way to show that you didn't study for00:06:59
the test and you regret that00:07:03
I should have eaten cake I didn't eat00:07:08
cake and I regret that I should have00:07:13
studied for the exam I didn't study and00:07:18
I regret that so should have chose00:07:23
regret would have I would have eaten00:07:26
cake means I love cake I always eat cake00:07:30
and when there's a chance I eat cake and00:07:33
only cake00:07:34
I would shows your will I could have00:07:38
eaten cake shows mmm it would it's00:07:43
possible of course in the past so that's00:07:49
the difference between those three and00:07:50
when we pronounce those we don't say oh00:07:55
I could have eaten cake or I would have00:07:59
eaten cake or I should have eaten cake00:08:02
we don't say that the way we pronounce00:08:04
that is like this I coulda I could've00:08:08
eaten cake if I had known I would've00:08:11
eaten cake I should've eaten cake I00:08:16
shoulda I woulda I coulda that's what00:08:21
when you listen to native English00:08:23
speakers like in a movie or in a TV00:08:26
program you hear that I could have eaten00:08:28
cake I would have eaten cake I should've00:08:31
eaten cake hungry all right so that's00:08:36
that's that part of today's lesson let00:08:40
me just jump over here a lot of people00:08:42

that you can see this video it'll become00:12:35
it's live now but it will become a video00:12:38
and you should you can practice that now00:12:40
you should practice that I think alright00:12:42
that's that hello Virginia Thank You00:12:47
hello Mariela Sydney hi arm Wow Don00:12:51
needy it's warm in Kiev that's nice -00:12:55
seven is not cold and Ukraine that the00:12:57
weather is really warm yeah you know we00:13:00
had weird weather I don't know 1900:13:03
degrees in February - seven in March I00:13:06
don't know alright yesterday we looked00:13:09
at cat idioms cats sometimes hunt birds00:13:13
and I thought that today we could look00:13:15
at some bird idioms if you if you work00:13:22
in an office and we're in a company and00:13:25
sometimes you have meetings and you00:13:29
might think that the meeting is00:13:30
pointless or useless or has no important00:13:37
meaning 70 fahrenheit in Mexico City Wow00:13:40
global warming that's right00:13:44
if you are if you're in a meeting and00:13:46
it's pointless you could say this00:13:49
meeting is for the birds00:13:51
it's for the birds you know birds eat00:13:57
little tiny insects and very small00:14:01
things because their mouth is very small00:14:04
small often has a feeling of not00:14:07
important so if you say that something00:14:11
is for the birds00:14:13
it means it's kind of not important it's00:14:16
a waste of time this meeting is for the00:14:18
birds00:14:21
let me think of another example it's for00:14:23
the birds it's not important you know00:14:27
what what that guy said was for the00:14:30
birds it's not important okay00:14:32
for the birds jack is such a birdbrain00:14:39
now if you think about a bird you know00:14:42
the human brain is about about this big00:14:47
a bird's brain is about that big right00:14:52
so maybe some birds are not so00:14:55
intelligent so if you say that someone00:14:58
is a birdbrain it means that person is00:15:02
not so smart00:15:03
jack is such a birdbrain do you know00:15:10
anybody who's a birdbrain why don't you00:15:12
leave a leave a comment and let us know00:15:14
who's a birdbrain in your life and the00:15:18
last one is to eat like a bird as I00:15:22
mentioned before birds eat just a little00:15:28
bit right they eat very tiny and small00:15:30
things so if you say that someone eats00:15:34
like a bird like big bird that's right00:15:38
Jenny eats like a bird it means she00:15:41
doesn't eat very much she's you know00:15:44
maybe she's very thin and she's very00:15:47
slim and she doesn't eat a lot so we00:15:50
could say she eats like a bird the00:15:53
opposite of that is00:15:56
I eat like a horse that's right I eat00:16:01
like a horse I love to eat I eat a lot00:16:04
so if you know someone that eats a lot00:16:08
you can say he eats like a horse all00:16:11
right but Jenny eats like a bird okay00:16:16
she doesn't eat very much Jack is a bird00:16:19
brain he's not so smart this meeting is00:16:22
for the birds00:16:24
it's kind of stupid unimportant all00:16:26
right00:16:27
that my friends brings us to the end of00:16:30
