TRANSCRIPT:
Hi. Im Rebecca from engVid. In this grammar lesson, youll learn how to use the word should
in the present, the past, and the future in English, okay? Now, of course, should is
a modal verb or a helping verb, and what that does is that it changes the meaning of the
sentence a little bit, and Im going to show you exactly why we use the word should,
when we use it, and how to use it, okay? And how it changes the meaning of what youre trying to
say, alright? So, are you with me? Lets get started. So, first, lets look at just the word
should. Now, whats easy in English is that luckily, no matter what the subject, okay? I,
you, we, they, he, she, or it, doesnt matter. We dont have to change the rest of what comes
after that. We dont have to change the verb at all, okay? So, unlike in the present tense,
where we have to change it sometimes, here, we dont have to change it, okay? So, it becomes
easier for you. So, lets suppose you want to talk about the present or the future. Why do we say
should? In the present or the future, really, its the future, okay? Because were talking
about something thats going to happen. So, we use should in the future to give advice. We
could be giving that advice to ourselves, or we could be giving that advice to someone else,
okay? So, what it means is something like this. Lets look at an example, okay? Then youll
understand exactly. So, lets suppose that somebody is not well, and youre worried about
them. So, you tell them, You should go to the doctor. Okay? You should go to the doctor.
Now, lets look at that sentence and understand it grammatically. So, what we use was the subject,
then we use the word should, its always like that, doesnt change, doesnt matter what the
subject is, and then were just using the regular base form of the verb. You dont have to change
the verb here at all, okay, when were talking about the present or the future. So, You should
go to the doctor. All right? Or you could say to someone, Somebody did something, and someone
felt hurt. So, you could say, You should apologize to Mary. Or I might say about myself,
or to myself, You know what? I think Mary felt bad when I said that. So, I should,
I should apologize, which means say sorry to Mary, okay? So, this is how we can use should
in a personal situation, all right? Going to the doctor, apologizing to someone, right?
We can also use should to talk about anything, okay? Any part of your life. So, Ive just divided
it up to show you different ways in which you can use it. So, here there are some personal examples.
Here were going to look at some academic examples, how you could use should to talk about
study, and also professional examples, all right? So, here we go. You could say to someone,
All right, lets give me the... Lets give the situation. So, somebody has an exam the next day,
but hes thinking about going out to a party, but he really needs to study, right? So, what do you
tell him? You tell him, I think you should study for the exam. You should study. Okay? Or lets say
both of you have exams, I think we should study for the exam tonight and not go out. Okay? We
should study. Again, youre just saying should plus the base form of the verb. Youre giving
advice to yourself or to someone else. Next, I think you should submit your assignment.
Submit, give in, hand in, submit your assignment to the professor. Okay? This is something you
need to do with school and college, university, all right? Another example, somebodys looking
for a job, and hes not sure which job to apply for, but you think this is a good possibility
and a good match for him or her, so you say to her, I think you should apply for that job.

Transcript:
Hi. Im Rebecca from engVid. Today, Ill share with you two important and useful strategies to improve your vocabulary, and specifically your business vocabulary, in faster and smarter ways. The two ways are this. Im going to show you what you could learn, and second, how you should learn it. All right? So, here we go.
Now, of course, there are many, many different things that you need to learn when youre learning a language - the grammar, the vocabulary, the pronunciation, so many other points. Today, were focusing on the vocabulary. And again, there are many smart strategies to master the vocabulary. This is definitely one of them.
So, what were looking at today is whats called formally, if you look it up on the internet, word forms. And what does that mean? That means, for example, lets say you know the meaning of the word manage. Okay? However, when you start to speak in a sentence and youre trying to convey a particular thought, sometimes you might get stuck, because even though you know the verb manage, maybe you dont know all forms of the word. So, all forms of the word, when we say that, we mean the verb, the person noun, the noun itself, the adjective, and also the adverb, although today were focusing on the other four, not the adverb. The adverb is very often like the adjective.
So, lets see how to do this, what you know already, and what gaps you need to fill in. And that way, when youre speaking, you wont get stuck because you dont know one of the word forms. I like to actually think of each of these like a word family. Its like get to know... If you... If you meet one of them, one member of the family, get to know the whole family. Right? The mother, the father, the brother, the sister, and that way you will feel very comfortable in their company. All right? So, lets get started.
So, lets take the first family or group and see how it goes. So, first were looking for the verb itself. The verb here is manage. Okay? So, you could manage or look after or be responsible for employees or projects, things like that. Many, many things in life which we manage. The person who manages, the person noun is manager. Right? Hes my manager, shes my manager, etc. The general noun is management. Well get a chance to pronounce all of these in a minute, dont worry. But what is the adjective? So, if you dont know one of these four, its possible that you could get stuck when youre trying to express something even though you took the trouble to actually learn the meaning of the word manage. Thats the hard part, to connect that first basic word. But once you learn a verb, its wonderful if you know all of the forms. All right?
So, do you know that if you say John has experience or John is looking for role, what is the adjective of the verb manage? Do you know what it is? If you need some time, pause the video, join me in a few seconds, but Im going to go on now. So, the actual adjective here is managerial. Did you know that word? Have you heard it before? Well, you can use it now. So, say it after... Lets go through all of them. Okay? Lets also pronounce them correctly. Manage, manager, management, managerial. Hes looking for a managerial role. He has managerial experience. Okay? So, see what happens if youre missing one of those words, thats when you get stuck. But if you know all of the forms, you wont get stuck. All right? Lets continue and see how it works.
The first word here is... The verb is organize. All right? What does it mean to organize something? It can mean to put something in order, like organize your home, organize your files, or it can mean to plan something, like an event, or a party, or a conference.
