EXTRAS: linguaspectrum.com Here is a subject you won’t find in any detail in any of your English textbooks. It’s strange really, when you consider that each and every one of us does this at least once or twice a day. Yet many people, and the English in particular, are rather embarrassed when talking about going to the toilet. The English, being somewhat reluctant to admit that they do go to the toilet, have invented many expressions to sanitise this rather natural bodily function. Perhaps it is this embarrassment about our natural bodily functions that makes toilet humour so popular in Hollywood movies and for stand-up comedians. But this is not a modern phenomenon, this aversion to accept our body’s natural processes. Around 1781, Benjamin Franklin wrote an essay entitled, Fart Proudly, in which he suggested to the Royal Academy of Brussels that research ought to be undertaken into ways of improving the odour of the human fart. Raucously funny, the essay has nevertheless been excluded from most published collections of Franklin’s writings. I fully expect this video to upset my more genteel viewers, so don’t be shy in complaining about the content in the comments below the video.

Qi is an English teacher at a Chinese school in Beijing, and it’s reported that she has musical talent, learning to sing at the age of 2, and playing the piano, keyboard, and accordion when she’s a teen. She also appeared at several TV auditions during her college years. No wonder she’s so good! But she settles down as teacher teaching English. Currently, she’s teaching SAT Prep classes, which she’s really good at, too. Btw, she’s dubbed the ‘Pop Queen’ in her school. It’s funny that one viewers posted a remark, saying “Hi Teacher, should I become your student or fan?”

A tense is a grammatical category that locates a situation in time, to indicate when the situation takes place. Some typical tenses are present, past, and future. Tense can make finer distinctions than simple past-present-future; past tenses for example can cover general past, immediate past, or distant past, with the only difference between them being the distance on the timeline between the temporal reference points. In this video, Mrs. Santha A. Kumar describes about tenses in the English language.
