TRANSCRIPT
Hi and welcome back to engVids. I'm your teacher today, Benjamin. Let's go. What we doing today?
We are looking at 10 super useful nouns to begin with that you can use in all areas of
life really, but I've especially chosen these words because I feel that they would be useful
to you in the world of work. Okay. So, in this lesson, we will explore the meanings
of these nouns, which are great for giving compliments and, you know, telling someone
that they've done a good job and are doing a good job. We will then look at how they
are used as adjectives. The opposite qualities, the antonyms, when they... So, what is the
opposite of charming, for example. And then we will look at adverbs, how these nouns go
into adverbs. And I feel that using adverbs is a really good way of showing sophistication
in your language, which is what's needed to get top grades in whether you're a native
speaker of English or an ESL learner doing some kind of exam. So, thanks for watching.
Let's get down to work.
Charm. Think of Prince Charming. Yep. He makes everyone feel good. He enters the party and
immediately every single person he speaks to leaves the conversation feeling better
about themselves. Charm means to give delight. Sounds good? I wouldn't mind a bit of that.
Consistency. Consistency. Could you repeat that at home for me? Consistency. Excellent.
Now, consistency as a character quality is when you do the same thing day in, day out,
again and again. So, if you... Your consistency, how are you with getting places on time? Is
your punctuality, would you say that you are consistent? Yep. So, the consistency is the
ability to do something again and again and again in the same way. I said consistent,
which we'll come to in a moment, is the adjective.
Creativity. Creativity is, some of you will already know, it's the ability to kind of
come up with new ideas. Artists, painters, musicians are full of creativity. They're
full of ideas. And if you check out my video on creative writing, you'll get some ideas
for developing your creativity.
Enthusiasm. Yep. Do I approach this lesson going, "Oh no, I've got to speak to those
guys on engVid again." Or no, I'm like, "Yes, I've got something cool to teach them. Let's
go. I'm going to roll up my sleeves and get down to work." Full of enthusiasm, the desire
to get fully involved in life and every single moment along the way.
Flexibility. If someone says, "Can we change a plan?" Are you able to go, "Yeah, okay.
Yeah. No, let's... We'll stop doing that and we're going to do this instead."
Flexibility. Yep. If you're flexible, you can bend. Yep. You're very good at yoga. That's
physical flexibility. Yep. The other type of flexibility is being able to move and be
adaptable in the way you do things. Okay. You can see the relevance for business English.
Thank you very much for your flexibility if someone changes a plan.
Okay. Formality. Formality is how smart something is. I would appreciate a degree of formality
in your appearance on Monday morning. A degree of I would appreciate it if you could be quite
smart on Monday. So, the level of formality is how smart or the opposite extreme, how scruffy,
not smart, as in physical clothing, et cetera, you present yourself. Formality.
Patience. Yep. If something bad happens, if someone makes a mistake, are you able to say,
"Never mind. Yep. Better luck next time or I'm sure it won't cause too much of a problem."
I was speaking to a friend back home a couple of weeks ago. […]
