    Hello! I'm Emma from mmmEnglish and in this
  • 00:00:12
    lesson we're focusing on adjectives. But
  • 00:00:15
    not just any adjectives! Pairs of
  • 00:00:18
    adjectives that can end in either ED or
  • 00:00:23
    ING, because you might be a little
  • 00:00:27
    confused about when you can use each
  • 00:00:30
    type of adjective!
  • 00:00:56
    Lots of these english adjectives are
  • 00:00:58
    made by adding ED or ING to a verb. For
  • 00:01:04
    example, the verb 'frustrate' can become an
  • 00:01:08
    adjective by adding ED - 'frustrated' or ING
  • 00:01:15
    'frustrating'. These endings are called
  • 00:01:19
    suffixes and when we add them to the end
  • 00:01:23
    of a verb they transform our verb into
  • 00:01:26
    an adjective. But you need to know how to
  • 00:01:30
    use each of these types of adjectives
  • 00:01:33
    and we're going to do that right now,
  • 00:01:35
    right here in this lesson!
  • 00:01:38
    An adjective that ends in ING is used to describe the
  • 00:01:44
    characteristics of something the
  • 00:01:47
    characteristics of a person or a place
  • 00:01:50
    or a thing or a situation.
  • 00:02:02
    Adjectives that end in ED are used to describe an
  • 00:02:08
    emotion or a feeling and it's usually a
  • 00:02:12
    temporary thing something that only
  • 00:02:15
    people can have generally, only people
  • 00:02:19
    have feelings, most of the time. But some
  • 00:02:23
    animals can also have feelings.
  • 00:02:26
    But you can't use ED adjectives to describe the
  • 00:02:30
    feelings of a thing or of the situation
  • 00:02:33
    because they don't have feelings! If you
  • 00:02:36
    say that something or someone is boring,
  • 00:02:42
    they or it makes you feel bored. So, the
  • 00:02:48
    thing or the person that is boring is
  • 00:02:51
    what makes you feel bored. It bores you
  • 00:02:56
    OK, there's our verb! If you say that
  • 00:03:00
    something is exciting, it makes you feel excited.
  • 00:03:08
    Did you did you notice any patterns in those
  • 00:03:10
    examples? If you're talking about a
  • 00:03:13
    temporary feeling or an emotion then use
  • 00:03:18
    the ED form of the adjective.
  • 00:03:39
    If you're describing
  • 00:03:41
    the thing or the person that caused
  • 00:03:44
    those feelings, then use the ING form of
  • 00:03:48
    the verb. For example, that movie was strange!
  • 00:04:01
    Let's look at the difference again.
  • 00:04:05
    He's bored. So, he's not
  • 00:04:09
    interested in what's happening, he's not
  • 00:04:13
    having a good time. If he's at a party
  • 00:04:16
    perhaps he doesn't like the music or he
  • 00:04:19
    doesn't really know anyone and he's got
  • 00:04:21
    no one to talk to. He's bored. He feels bored.
  • 00:04:27
    But if you say he's boring it
  • 00:04:32
    means he's not an interesting person, that
  • 00:04:35
    you don't enjoy talking to him. He's
  • 00:04:37
    never got anything interesting to say.
  • 00:04:40
    He's boring. He makes me feel bored.
  • 00:04:46
    Alright, it's time to practice a little
  • 00:04:49
    now. I'm going to read out a few
  • 00:04:51
    sentences for you and I want you to try
  • 00:04:54
    to choose if the adjective in each
  • 00:04:56
    sentence is the correct adjective or not.
  • 00:05:00
    Ready?
  • 00:05:14
    What do you think?
  • 00:05:20
    It's a "no"! Incorrect answer! I am very excited to see my sister.
  • 00:05:30
    It's how I feel. I'm excited. I
  • 00:05:35
    feel excited to see my sister.
  • 00:05:43
    annoying I don't understand these
  • 00:05:53
    Correct!
  • 00:05:55
    The instructions are annoying. They're making
  • 00:05:58
    me feel annoyed.
  • 00:06:13
    I'm bored because i've got
  • 00:06:17
    nothing to do. I feel bored.
  • 00:06:35
    I felt so embarrassed! I felt embarrassed
  • 00:06:42
    when I spilt tomato sauce down my dress on a date!
  • 00:06:48
    I hate being the centre of attention! It was so embarrassing when
  • 00:06:52
    they called my name and I had to go up on stage!
  • 00:07:01
    It was embarrassing. The
  • 00:07:04
    experience was embarrassing. I felt embarrassed.
  • 00:07:19

  • 00:07:24
