To be expressive, to show emotion and feeling and to sound more interesting when you use English, your need to start pushing your vocabulary further.
Saying something is nice or beautiful is good… But adjectives like magnificent, remarkable or inspirational are so much stronger and more meaningful!

Adjectives are a big group of words in English! They are used to describe or give more information about a noun.
Word order is important with adjectives. When used next to a noun, the adjective comes before the noun! Like this (point)
a/an + adjective + noun: An incredible story.
Noun + (be) +adjective: Her recommendations were excellent.

Do you have a "question" or a "doubt"?
source: Espresso English 2017年7月16日
Students often say "I have a doubt" and then ask me something about the English language.
However, native English speakers don’t usually say it this way. If you want to know the answer about something, you should say "I have a question."
So when can we use the word "doubt"? You'll find out in today's lesson!
I've collected 600 of the most common words that students tend to confuse, and I'll teach you how to use them correctly in my e-book 600+ Confusing English Words Explained: https://www.espressoenglish.net/600-c...

The best way to learn English faster is through watching TV series. It’s the fun, enriching and effective way to speak fluent English and learn new vocabulary. When you watch TV series with English subtitles, you can record new vocabulary slang words, English expressions, phrases and always go back and check the meaning later. This way you are learning new words and learning the context in which it’s been used. This fastens the English learning process, as you are acquiring the language naturally.
Pronunciation: Consonant - vowel linking
source: BBC Learning English 2016年10月7日
Tim's back in his pronunciation workshop. This time he's finding out what happens when a word ending in a consonant sound is followed by a word starting with a vowel sound.

Transcript:
Tim: Hi. I'm Tim and this is my Pronunciation Workshop. Here, I'm going to show you how English is really spoken. Come on, let's go inside. Today, I'm going to tell you about perhaps the most common feature of fluent English pronunciation. And to help me, I’m going to use one of these. Now, I know you know what it is, but let's ask the people of London to describe it.
Voxpops: He's holding an egg.
Tim: An egg – that's two words, right? But, when we pronounce them, there's no gap in between them. It almost sounds like one word. Listen again.
Voxpops:He's holding an egg.
Tim: In fluent English, when one word ends in a consonant sound and the next word begins in a vowel sound, we link the two sounds together without a pause in between them. So, an egg becomes anegg. This is called catenation. Here are some more examples.
Examples
He’s in the garden.
I used to believe in Father Christmas, but not any more.
I had to give up jogging.
He had it in his office.
Tim: Right, so you've heard the examples: you know the drill. Listen and repeat.
Examples: He’s in the garden.
I used to believe in Father Christmas, but not any more.
I had to give up jogging.
He had it in his office.
Tim: Well done! Now remember, if you want to learn more about pronunciation, then please visit our website, bbclearningenglish dot com. And that is about it from the Pronunciation Workshop for now. I'll see you soon. Bye! Now I think I’m going to have this egg, for my lunch. It is a hard-boiled egg, isn't it?
Voice: Oh yes Tim, yes, yes, it's definitely a hard-boiled egg.
Tim: Great, sounds good. Oh no no no no no! Ohhh, what a mess! Very funny.
