1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:07,640
In this grammar refresh, we'll start by looking at something called the Emphatic Auxillary.

2
00:00:09,010 --> 00:00:14,170
Or does so the emphatic auxillary is what we're focusing on here.

3
00:00:15,340 --> 00:00:21,520
And this basically means that you're stressing the auxiliary verb when you say it.

4
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:31,630
So we use this emphatic auxiliary verb in our sentences to stress the point of the sentence.

5
00:00:32,390 --> 00:00:33,890
Well, let's take a look at the examples.

6
00:00:33,910 --> 00:00:36,700
It's the easiest way to really understand this.

7
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:43,450
And here, you know, the auxiliary verb is do or does or did in the present or past tense.

8
00:00:44,140 --> 00:00:52,870
And listen to how I read it to see how it's the emphatic auxiliary work for the first example is they

9
00:00:52,870 --> 00:00:56,020
do know me after all right.

10
00:00:56,350 --> 00:00:58,420
But you hear me stress the do.

11
00:00:59,170 --> 00:01:04,420
So they're really focusing on the fact that, oh hey, they do know me.

12
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:09,010
I everyone thought they did it, but they do so they do know me.

13
00:01:09,430 --> 00:01:18,580
After all, that's different than if you just read it as a simple auxiliary verb without the emphatic

14
00:01:18,580 --> 00:01:20,560
part, without the emphatic.

15
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,020
It's just they do know me after all.

16
00:01:23,830 --> 00:01:28,350
But with the emphatic auxillary, it's they do know me after all.

17
00:01:29,110 --> 00:01:30,310
Let's look at another example.

18
00:01:32,730 --> 00:01:34,590
It does sound horrible.

19
00:01:35,130 --> 00:01:39,640
How did it happen, or you could just pick one.

20
00:01:39,660 --> 00:01:40,560
You don't have to do both.

21
00:01:40,830 --> 00:01:42,960
It does sound horrible.

22
00:01:43,500 --> 00:01:44,370
How did it happen?

23
00:01:45,420 --> 00:01:50,490
So I can add that emphasis on these auxiliary verbs.

24
00:01:51,450 --> 00:01:55,560
The last example I did send the report on Monday.

25
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:04,050
So if someone's questioning, did you send the report and you really want to make it sound like of course

26
00:02:04,050 --> 00:02:07,830
I did it did my job, then you can add this emphasis.

27
00:02:07,830 --> 00:02:11,190
I did send the report on Monday.

28
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:22,000
We'll also look now at these special contractions that we use only during speech, and if you watch

29
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,740
some of the other lessons, you might have seen this.

30
00:02:23,740 --> 00:02:28,720
But these are very good to review because they are used so often.

31
00:02:29,020 --> 00:02:34,990
And again, these are mostly only used in informal situations.

32
00:02:36,250 --> 00:02:44,920
So here's what we're going to contract certain verbs or phrases with these verbs into special words.

33
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,580
Well, the first one is want to write.

34
00:02:49,030 --> 00:02:53,260
I want to if you're writing, that's how you definitely would write it.

35
00:02:53,440 --> 00:03:00,090
But if you're talking to friends or a very casual setting, you can contract this to one, right?

36
00:03:00,430 --> 00:03:01,360
I want to.

37
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:01,990
I want to.

38
00:03:03,510 --> 00:03:07,510
I've got to change to data, right?

39
00:03:07,980 --> 00:03:10,700
I have got to versus I got.

40
00:03:12,350 --> 00:03:14,580
Going to become governor.

41
00:03:15,020 --> 00:03:18,290
All right, I'm going to I'm going to.

42
00:03:19,510 --> 00:03:25,880
Both mean the same thing, and these are very good to get used to because, you know, you don't know

43
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,280
about these and someone who is a native speaker is talking to you.

44
00:03:30,140 --> 00:03:33,860
These words are going to sound so strange to you and you're not going to understand them.

45
00:03:34,310 --> 00:03:34,660
Right?

46
00:03:35,020 --> 00:03:36,760
Someone says, I want to have this banana.

47
00:03:37,610 --> 00:03:38,330
What is one?

48
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,100
But if you know this, it's an extra step or an extra.

49
00:03:44,370 --> 00:03:47,610
Level two, your English, and you'll be able to understand a lot more.

50
00:03:48,830 --> 00:03:52,490
There are examples here are so what are you going to do?

51
00:03:53,420 --> 00:03:54,620
What are you going to do?

52
00:03:54,890 --> 00:03:55,140
And.

53
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,400
The next one, well, I got to go.

54
00:03:59,310 --> 00:04:05,270
The work isn't going to do itself, so you can see how these kind of all blend together, right?

55
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:06,330
It makes your sentence.

56
00:04:07,470 --> 00:04:10,200
All the words seem very blended together.

57
00:04:10,260 --> 00:04:11,070
Well, I got to go.

58
00:04:11,670 --> 00:04:14,160
It's not well, I got to go.

59
00:04:15,110 --> 00:04:16,010
Well, I got to go.

60
00:04:18,710 --> 00:04:25,580
The last example is I don't want to call in sick after only three weeks of working here, but I can't

61
00:04:25,580 --> 00:04:26,690
work in this state.

62
00:04:27,790 --> 00:04:29,060
Again, I don't want to.

63
00:04:30,100 --> 00:04:32,980
I don't want to call it's all blended together.

64
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:40,870
I don't want to call in sick versus I don't want to call in sick, but I don't want to call.
