Pop quiz: which is correct:
 - a red big ball, or a big red ball?
 - an awful old movie, or an old awful movie?
 - a French lovely silk gown, or a silk French lovely gown, or a lovely French silk gown?

All of these examples are related to ordering adjectives in the English language - when we have multiple words describing something, how do we know which one comes first, next, and last? 

That's exactly what you're going to learn today - and if you can master the correct adjective order, then you'll be able to describe anything with confidence in English - knowing you sound natural!

If you're learning English, make sure to download the free PDF of this lesson - it's a fantastic reference because it has LOTS of example words, as well as a quiz to help you practice the proper order of adjectives.

Our question of the day is from a student who asked what the expression "wishful thinking" means. 

Wishful thinking is when there's something you hope or want to happen… but the reality is that it probably won't; it's actually very unlikely. Let me give you a couple examples!

Download free PDF + quiz: https://espressoenglish.lpages.co/free-pdf-10-words-ending-in-ful/ 

In a previous lesson we learned 10 words ending in -less, which means without, and today we'll learn 10 words ending in -ful, which means something like "full of":

• Something that's "beautiful" is full of beauty
• Someone who is "successful" is "full of success," they have a lot of success.

Note that the suffix is -ful, only one L, different from the word "full" which has two Ls.

After learning these 10 words, download the free PDF lesson guide and try the quiz to practice them - just click on the link in the video description and enter your e-mail address to get that free download.

In English, the suffix -less means "without." For example, something that is "colorless" is white or transparent; it has no color. Or someone who is "homeless" has no place to live; they are without a home. Some of these words are simple like that, but others are not so obvious - you might be surprised by the definitions of restless and priceless, which we'll learn in this lesson.

Today we'll learn 10 English words that end in -less, with example sentences so you can see how they're used. To practice these words, make sure to download the PDF guide to this lesson because it has a quiz to see if you can use each word in the correct sentence.

There's a famous quote by Henry Ford that goes like this: "Whether you think you can or you think you can't - you're right." This means if you have a positive attitude and you believe you can do something, then you will be able to do it. But if you have a negative attitude and you believe you can't do something, then you won't be able to do it.

Our mindset has a very powerful effect on our success. So that's why I'm always encouraging you not to say or think things like "I can't speak English very well" or "I can't become fluent" because these attitudes will actually prevent you from reaching your goal.

Are you wondering how to form questions in English with correct grammar? Well today I'm going to teach you a simple method for asking questions in almost ALL the verb tenses!

I think you'll find this lesson very helpful, and I've made a free lesson guide available for you to download. It also includes a quiz so you can practice forming questions. 

All right, let's take a look at this question formation formula. I like to remember it with the acronym QUASM, and that stands for

• QU estion word
• A uxiliary verb (also called the helping verb)
• S ubject
• M ain verb

Reported questions, indirect questions, and subject questions also do not follow QUASM. Click on each link for my lesson on those topics!

Now you know how to make questions in English! Try the quiz on the next page to test yourself.

When do we use difficulty (singular) vs. difficulties (plural)?

I'm going to explain this and also teach you a number of collocations, typical combinations of words, to expand your vocabulary!

Learning collocations improves your English fluency because instead of trying to put a sentence together word by word, trying to think "which verb goes with this noun?" or "which adjective sounds more natural?" – instead, you'll already know combinations of words that go together.

My e-book, 1000 collocations in 10 minutes a day, makes learning collocations quick and easy. It has 50 short lessons, 50 quizzes, and comes with audio as well.

One of my students asked me what's the difference between these two questions:

• "Does she have a car?"
• "Doesn't she have a car?"

This is an excellent question because there IS a difference between positive questions like the first one, and negative questions like the second one. I'll teach you about it in today's lesson, and we'll also cover question tags, like "She has a car, doesn't she?"

But first I have a question for YOU:
