⭐️ Vocabulary / Semantics I'm looking for someone to share a subscription to LookUpper (a language learning program)

0 Upvotes

The subscription costs 500 rubles, but I would like to save for a couple of months with someone since the Pro version is provided for 2 devices. Anyone who also wants to learn any language in the game for literally 250 rubles, please let me know. This program is specifically for games and for watching movies in English or another language

📚 Grammar / Syntax "Isn't" in questions being changed for "is not" as is

• Upvotes

For example in the question "Isn't this my house?" it cannot be rewritten as "Is not this my house", right? That sounds wrong. So how could it be?

📚 Grammar / Syntax Why are some nouns arbitrarily countable? Is there a way to know this without referring to a dictionary?

It's... water, so you'd think it's a mass noun, but it isn't. Is there a way to know that "floodwater" is a count noun without looking it up in a dictionary? I know it's rice, but lentils and oats because they're always plural with S endings. But then, "I've got some good news" has also tricked me into thinking "news" is countable. So, what now?

🗣 Discussion / Debates I‘ve tried learning more advanced words, but one week later I had totally forgotten them

7 Upvotes

I‘m B2 in English, and I‘m trying to learn more advanced words in order to better understand news articles, books, and more complex English in general. I‘ve tried learning advanced words, but as those are not very common words, I wouldn‘t encounter them often when consuming content and I would not use them when speaking on a daily basis, therefore I didn‘t retain them on the long term. One week later, the words had completely slipped my mind. Any tips on how to memorize them more effectively ?

📚 Grammar / Syntax fill or be filled? And do you need to use "up" too?

2 Upvotes

The tap is on. I'm waiting for the tank to fill / be filled (up).

I'm a bit confused as the dictionary says "fill" can be either transitive or intransitive. Are both correct then?

🗣 Discussion / Debates How do you guys review your flashcards?

8 Upvotes

I‘ve tried flashcards for memorizing vocab in the past, and I found it was really effective. The problem was that after almost 1 month, I found myself having to learn 100 flashcards from all the previous words I had written. Like…reviewing 100 flashcards every day, I couldn’t manage it. I wonder how other people who use flashcards manage this. Any tips?
