But first of all if this is the first time, if this is your first time, you haven't never seen this lesson before, well this is a one hour lesson so we're gonna stay here together for about an hour and we're gonna have this, in this lesson we'll be dividing into two 30-minute parts, okay?

The second 30 minutes instead they are dedicated, the second 30 minutes they are dedicated to our vocabulary challenge which is a very fun game that will allow you to grow your vocabulary and comprehension of this language. So with this said let me say hello Adele, hello my dear, hello, welcome with us and if you like the intro, if you've seen it, if you've seen actually this live from the very first moment you also noticed I have an intro with it and this is why Irina is actually commenting on it and well if you haven't you can watch it from the beginning then you let me know if you like it. Anyway, let's begin, right? Let's begin our journey together with the first question which is from Paolino. Hello Paolino, welcome with us, if you're here, if you haven't arrived yet that's okay you can always turn back this lesson and watch it from your question which I know you already asked me last time but I couldn't answer because there were other questions in the in the queue, right? So you're asking me what's the difference between travel and journey? And that's a very good question because I'm sure many people are wondering the same. If you get into a travel agency, all right, you are talking about travels and then journey and it's often related to traveling as well, so what's the difference? Why, why, why, why do we need two words? Well, now I'm going to explain you why. So both the words can be both actions and noun, so this means that I can say to travel or I travel to Rome, I travel to Paris, all right, and you can say the travel, I like this travel and you're also asking about trip, that's a good one, that's a good one and I'm going to add it, okay, because it's the same topic, all right? So now we're going to see the difference between travel, journey and thanks to Lolly, also trip, all right? So we, these three, there are too many words so I need to actually use pen and paper to make sure everything is in order, all right? So travel, let me do this because, okay, this way I can actually, it's a bit more comfortable. So travel, then we have journey, journey, all right? The pronunciation is journey and then we also got trip, here we go, all right? So travel, journey, trip. They all can be but nouns and actions, noun and action, noun and action. I mean, we can say the travel, I like this travel, I like this journey, I like this trip, okay? Or as an action, I travel, I journey, I trip, okay? So there are, there's a lot to talk about. So let's see with travel. Travel is an action, is mostly an action, okay? And is the action of going from A to B. So this is a travel, okay? So you go from A to B and you travel. For example, next week I'm traveling to Dubai or I want to travel, no not I want to because when you talk about the action, it's already decided usually. So I booked, actually not even that, just straight like this, I travel to New York, okay? Or my travel to New York was good, was relaxing, my travel to New York was long, my travel to New York was short, okay, as a noun. Or I want to travel to New York as an action, okay? And this is just the actual, the action from A to B, right? Now when it comes to journey, we still have an A to B thing, okay? We still have an A to B thing, but it's a little different because here we are talking about the experience. Let me change color. Experience, experience, right? Here we're talking about the experience, so for example, when you are on an English journey, alright? You're on an English journey, I say English journey because it's more than a travel, it's the experience of learning this language and because it's an experience, because of that, you're going to actually say, I journey, I'm on a journey or I want to journey. For example, if I say, and this is how you can actually get it, if I say I want to travel to Paris, okay? I basically mean I want to take a plane and go to Paris. But if I say I want to journey to Paris, well, you already see a totally different experience, probably by car or by van maybe, you know? Like I want to spend maybe a few weeks traveling, okay, through Europe until I go to Paris, until I reach Paris. So the journey is the experience, alright? So you use journey when you're talking about the experience and usually when you have a journey, you also learn something. This is why we're talking about your journey to learn English, for example, or there's always some kind of development, okay? You develop, your character develops. When we're talking about a journey, there's much more to experience, right? Because we're talking exactly about the experience of it, right? Now, a trip, usually a trip is like a two-way, is a two-way travel, alright? So the travel is from A to B, whereas the trip is from A to B and back, from A to B and back, right? So this is the difference usually. So this is the trip, alright? But we have a surprise when we're talking about a two-trip because you see, for example, because it's a two-way travel, okay? You may imagine that you say, next, tomorrow I trip to London, alright? But unfortunately, you can't say that. You cannot say that and the reason is all about the image of it, right? It's all about the image because travel is a pretty long distance, whereas trip is a pretty short distance. Let me write this down here, alright? So travel is a long distance, trip is a short distance. So you have a trip, okay? You want to use the noun. You have a trip to the supermarket because you forgot something. Hello, Sophie. Hello, my dear. Welcome with us. Welcome with us. You're just in time. We are just learning the difference between travel, journey, and trip, right? And we say that trip is a short distance. So if you have a trip to London, it's because you're thinking of it as a short distance, maybe because you live close by or because maybe by plane is pretty near, right? You don't have to, from India to London, that's a travel, okay? You travel to London, okay? But from Lisbon, for example, to London, that's an hour trip, alright? That's an hour trip to London, okay? And usually when you say trip, you mean go and back, go and back, alright? But because of this short image, alright, to trip has nothing to do with traveling at all, alright? Because actually, to trip is when you accidentally fall down. And to explain you this, let me go over the internet and let me go with to trip, alright? And as you can see, this is to trip. You see the difference? You see that basically here you're actually falling down, alright? It has nothing to do with the traveling experience. But this is because it's a short distance from the moment you're up to the moment you are down. This is why it's called a trip, right? And in fact, when you say business trip, yeah, absolutely, that's a very good question, Dolly. Yeah, when you're talking about a business trip, okay, this is the action, okay? And just to make sure, you see here, we're talking about the action. The action is to fall. When you say business trip, you're talking about the noun. And the noun is close to travel. It's closer to travel, alright? So this is how you actually understand it. And if it's a business trip, then it's because you travel for work. So you go from a place to another place because you are required for work. This is it. So this is the main difference. Alright, so it's a pleasure, Sophie, and it's a pleasure to all of you. If you understood this, we can definitely go ahead with our next question, which is still from Paolino, because last time he had so many questions. You have to know that. He's been typing like crazy last time. He was like, oh, I want to know. I want to know this, and I want to know that. Unfortunately, I didn't have the time to go over his questions straight away. So what did he do? He used the form down here to actually send me the question, and here it is. So if you have a question, that's okay. That's okay. You're still in time. Just write down the form. Or better, click on the form, fill in the form. It's just a two-question form, okay? Your name and your actual question. And then I receive it, and I answer it live right here with your name, okay? Anyway, what's the difference between to think and to have a cognition? Okay, okay. Well, I have to say, Paolino, that when I saw this one, I needed to actually research a little, because the difference is not very clear, right? I mean, it's not very simple. Here it is. So probably you guys are familiar with to think. To think is the action of using your brain, using your mind, using your imagination to come up with new things, right? This is to think, okay? To think. For example, I think of what I want to say next. I think of the thing that I'm about to read. You say, well, sir, you're explaining things vividly. Oh, thank you. It's a pleasure. Look, I'm doing this because I have fun, right? This is why I explain things vividly, because I want to have fun. And if I don't have fun, it's not fun. So it needs to be vivid. It's a language. It's life, right? So back to here, right? Because I was thinking, okay, I'm thinking I want to answer this question, okay? So this is how you use to think. To think is when you use your mind. To have a cognition is a little bit different. It's a little more broad. It's a little more general, okay? Usually you don't have a cognition. Usually you just talk about the cognition. This is pretty difficult to explain, okay? But the word cognition, and this is the pronunciation, cognition, cognition, right? Is when you, it's basically the whole experience of thinking and, how was it? Oh my God. Is the whole, yes, is the whole cognitive experience. So when you're thinking, when you're creating something, when you are remembering something, when you understand something, this is all part of cognition. And the reason why it is pretty difficult to explain is because it's not so used, all right? So probably you've read this in a book. And so kudos to you, because this means that you are definitely into this language and you want to learn more and more. At the same time, unfortunately, it's not a very used, very widely used word that you have to know, right? In fact, it's used in very, very, little, very small phrases, not small, sorry, very, in just a few phrases, that's what I wanted to say. It's used in just a few phrases. For example, human cognition developed through the ages, right? That's a phrase that I just came up with. But anyway, it's a pretty formal word as well, not so used. So since you're learning this language, you better stick with to think when you're talking about this action, all right? The action of using your mind, because it's just the easiest to explain your ideas with, right? If you have any questions about it, I'm more than happy to do some more research on this topic, on this word, and I'm going to present my answer, all right? And now, on with the next one, which is from Monica. Hello, Monica. And you're asking, I'd like to speak English. I'd like to speak English. Can you help me, please? Oh, yeah, of course I can help you. Of course I can help you, absolutely. This is, first of all, speaking begins with listening. The more you listen to a language, the more you're able to then produce the language. So if you are watching this, if you're here, by the way, say hi so I know it, all right? If you're not here, that's okay. You can always see it later on. And if you're doing it, well done, because that's already helping you speak English. I know it sounds very strange. You may feel that speaking and listening are separate, but they are not. They are the same, they are the other face of the same coin. It's, they're the same thing. They're just another expression of it. To better understand this, imagine when, how did you learn your native language? How did you learn it? You haven't learned it just by speaking. You first spent enough time listening to the language so that then you were able to produce the sounds required to speak it. So the first thing you want to do is to listen to English as much as possible, like really, really as much as possible. The more you listen to English, and this is good, really good practice, the more you're able to then reproduce the same sounds you listen, okay? And this is number one. The second thing I can do to help you is definitely, well, the tools I provide to the members of my channel. So in fact, let me talk to you about this, all right? So let's go once again here, but this time, if you go over my channel, and you're already on my channel, and press the button join, all right? Here you have a little video explaining you what's going on, but I've changed the name, so it's better me explaining you, all right? So you have a choice of three different packages full of tools to speak English. The first is the Discord community, and this is a great tool because we have an private Discord community where you can join, and you can find other English learners that they are there to learn the language. This means you can organize with them and speak with them, and it's amazing because Discord is a place where not only you can send written messages, you can send voice messages, and you can also have video call like it were a Zoom conversation. So it's a full-on experience, and it's perfect to practice your speaking. And this is only for, what, five euros a month if you're using euros, all right? But anyway, it's a very small amount, not much, really. It's probably a coffee or two coffees, right? Now, the second one is the English course B1 to C1. Here, I actually teach you if you're already a B1, and I suppose you are. Well, here I teach you how to build the phrases, how they think about this language, and how they do it. And basically, I take you from your B1 level, and I carry you, all right, step by step until you reach your C1 level. In the process, you will definitely learn how to speak because you will actually learn how to communicate this language. Lastly, in the speaking course, well, like the name said, right? Like the name said, well, here I teach you how to speak this language, how to pronounce the words, how to understand it, how to comprehend this language, all right? So this is actually a speaking-listening course together because, like I said before, the two things are together. Listening and speaking are always together. Whatever you choose, once a month, so one time per month, we are going to see each other live on Discord, okay? This is a great thing. Like the very fact that whatever you choose, we can have a direct conversation with the rest of the members is absolutely fantastic. So these are all the tools that, so far, I put together, but there will be more to come. But anyway, at the moment, these are all the tools that I put together for you guys and for you, Monica, to be able to develop your English skills, all of them, right? Especially speaking, anyway. So if I answered to your question, let's go on because we got still two very important questions. And then we got a speaking challenge, which is a lot, okay? So let's see what we can do here. Lolly, this is for you, all right? Lolly, this is yours. So you say, what's the difference between I lived here for 10 years and I've been living here for 10 years? So basically, you're asking the difference between lived and have been living, all right? So to show you the difference, I'm gonna use pen and paper, right? So I'm gonna turn this away. I'm gonna just flip the page, all right? I'm gonna flip the page and I'm gonna show you everything on this line. So this is like a timeline, okay? And this is the present, present, right? This is the present and you say that I lived... where have you lived? Let me see. I lived here, okay? So I lived here. So if at the present you say I lived here, you are talking about a period of time that happened in the past, right? And this is it. But the difference is that because you used lived, you're talking about, yes, the period of time, but the action is just in the past. This is a point in the past. It's right here, all right? Yes, you're talking about a period, but the action you're using is just a point in the past. But if you say, hold on, yeah, if you say I've been living... was this this way, right? Let me see. Yes, I've been living. I've been living here, here. Then you're talking about the same action, so the action is always to live, but this time, this time the action is spreaded, right? The action is spreaded from the present down to the past, right? So this is actually what you mean. If you say I've been living here, first of all, it means that you still live here in the present. As you can see, you still live here in the present. If you say I lived here, you talk about a single moment in time that is in the past. A single moment in time. And this is very important, okay? Look, I'm going to create some contrast. Here you go, okay? When you use lived, it's a single moment in time. When you use have been living, it's a longer moment that happened in the past, is still valid today, and it continued, right? So this is graphically the difference. Let me know, let me know if the explanation was clear. And I know you also have another question, so let's go to the other question of Lolly, right? You're asking, what's the difference between finish and be over? Okay, okay, we can answer that, can't we? Of course we can, right? So, what's the difference between finish and be over? Well, first of all, let's go back here, right? And let's take the same line, because anyway, this is a timeline, okay? Now, this is the end, and this is the end of the timeline. Hold on a second, guys, because I have a question from Irina from the previous topic. So you say, so it means I lived here, then I moved to another place, and now I'm here again, for example, to spend some days for vacation. Yes, you got it, Irina, you got it, just like that. This is because we got the word here, so yes, this means you are there again, yes. Perfect, well done, well done. Actually, no, let's see, well done, well done, all right. So, now, back to our present topic, okay? End, end, which could be to end or the end, to or the, right? To end or the end, okay? Whenever you use this tool, okay, you're talking about the moment you finish something, the moment you finish something, yeah? In fact, finish is a period. This is finish, all right? So, for example, now, we are 30 minutes into the live, okay? I'm finishing, I'm finishing to answer your questions, and in just a few moments, we're going to begin our vocabulary challenge, right? So, this is to finish, finish is a period, end is a moment, okay? So, this is the biggest difference. Now, what else? Over, right? Because the last part is be over, right? So, what's the difference? What is it, all right? Well, over is over, over is this, this is over, over, all right? So, this is over, right? What is it over? Over is, over is just an image, is an image of this target that moves around to a particular place. Now, when you say, for example, this is over, this is over, you mean to say that this period is, has ended, this period has ended, and now is over, now you are past it, like here, this, this is actually over, all right? When you are past the moment, all right? So, in other words, the biggest difference is that when you use, you finish something, you are still doing it, you end something, is the moment precisely, it's precisely the moment you finish something, over is when you are past it, okay? Over is when you are past the end, you are past the end, so you're over. If you didn't understand this one, it's okay, you don't need to understand this one to be, to be true, all right? If you don't, you don't need to understand this one to understand this little thing, finish and over, right? Finish and over. For example, in about half an hour, in about half an hour, this streaming is over, right? In about, actually, because now we're, yeah, yeah, in about half an hour, in more than half an hour, actually, in more than half an hour, this streaming is over, in about half an hour, I end this streaming, in about 20 minutes, I start to finish the streaming, okay? So, let me know, Lolly, if so far was clear. Also, let me know if you're here, because I haven't seen you for a while. So, let me see, let me see if I'm missing something. No, I haven't missed it, okay? I haven't missed any comments. Let me know, Lolly, if you're here with us, if you got this, okay? Also, Lolly, I need you to run me an email, all right? I need you to run me an email, because I need to get in contact with you, because you are part of our members, but you're still not in Discord. Because you're not in Discord, I can't communicate with you, and I kind of need to do that. So, to find the email, I'm going to show you what to do to find the email. To find the email, you can go here, you just press over here, and you can find the same thing on your mobile phone as well. You go down here, view email address, and this is my email address, albert.easyenglish.gmail.com. And now, anyway, I'm going to copy and paste, all right? I'm going to copy and paste. The applause was not intended, okay? Okay, Lolly, you're here. So, I'm going to copy and paste this into our chat. Here we go. Thank you. Thank you, everybody. I need to explain you this, okay? We actually have a new sound effect, which is this one, all right? And this was supposed to be a surprise, because now we are about to start our vocabulary challenge, and whenever you guess the word, you're going to hear this sound, and I connected this sound with a particular key on my keyboard that now I pressed to paste the email address, and this is why. But anyway, and yes, same email, great, perfect. Now, back to the game. If this is your first time, if you've never seen this game before, you can participate with me, all right? So, in just a moment, I'm going to randomly find a word. I'm going to describe this word to you, and you can write down in the chat box what you think the word is. And if you guessed it, well, this is for you. Yeah, that's fine. So, let's begin, right? Let's begin with the first word, which I'm going to randomly choose from a list of about 700 words I've found. I put together, actually. I haven't found it. I put it together myself. So, and let's begin with this one. Oh, nah, this is too easy. Come on. I'm not, no, no. As I'm choosing my word, okay, as I'm choosing the word, and this word was too easy, all right, as I'm choosing the word, right here in the chat box, things like, okay, okay, so I know that you are ready to start, and you are participating to the game, all right? As you write, okay, I choose the word. So, let's go with this one. Okay, so this is a little harder to explain. So, write down okay, all right? Will you write down okay? And I want to see it, okay? So, I know you guys are participating with me in this game. Now, this word is an action. It's an action, which is a verb, and it's something. Let's say you have some quantity of something, and then you want to share this quantity with other people. Well, this is the action we're talking about. I know, Irina. I know you're right. I know you're okay into the game. Absolutely. So, by the way, Irina, I know you're very good, and Lolly, too. We have other people that are here with us. Let's leave some room, all right, maybe a couple of minutes before starting with the word, before starting guessing, so we can include even other people, all right? And I'm talking with you, you that are watching, all right? You can participate. If you do it, your English improves, so you can participate, right? So, back to the word, right? And the word is, we said it's an action, and it's something you do when you want to share something with somebody else. Usually, you use this action when you share it at scale. You share it with many people. If you share it with many people, then you're going to use this one. You're going to use this word. Companies use this word. Companies usually use this word to talk about it, because, well, usually they have huge quantities, right, of things, and when they need to share, when they want to share, and to share what they have, they use this action. I still see no clue from you guys. So, it's an action, right? Now, if you want to say something, if you want to try to guess it, it's the right time, okay? Now you can, okay? You, Irina, you, Loli, and whoever else wants, you're more than welcome to try to guess this word, right? So, once again, it's an action. It's something that happens, it's an action that happens when you have some quantity you want to share, you want to give to other people, and maybe you have a huge quantity, and you don't give it all to one person, right? You don't give it all to one person. For this reason, you're using this action. Let me see if my chat box is maybe stuck for some reason. No, it's not stuck, okay? No, no. You guys are here. Come on, guys. I know you can make it. It's not so hard. Try to guess it. It's something that happens to a movie, even. A movie. Hey, Loli. Yes, it's this tribute. It's this tribute. Actually, yeah, that's right. That's right, Loli. Well done. Yeah. The word is this tribute. You got it very well. You have a very huge vocabulary. I have to say that, because yes, the word was easy, but maybe it wasn't as easy as I thought, right? In fact, congratulations. Congratulations, Loli. Yes, the word was this tribute, and this tribute. Just to make sure, I'm going to show you maybe some images about it, so you know what I'm talking about. I said this tribute, right? This tribute is when you have maybe a product or something that you want to share, you want to send in many places, or you want to distribute it to many people. You want to give a little bit here, a little bit there, and a little bit there, so you distribute the product, the food. For example, this is a truck that distribute food, and the pronunciation is this tribute. Awesome. All right. Now, we're ready for the word number two. I'm going to do the same, exactly the same as before. I randomly choose this one. There was no word here. Once again, I randomly choose this one. Ah, come on. This is easy, all right? Because it's easy, because it's easy, I want you to participate, okay? You that are watching live and you're not answering, or you that are watching not live. Because I know you guys, there are a lot of people watching this live streaming, watching these lessons once they're over, once they are over, all right? Once they are over, there are many people watching these as a replay, okay? You are more than welcome to use the comment section down here to try and guess with us. You try and guess it, and you can see this way, if you can guess it before the people like Lolly, which is, she's so good, right? You can see if you can beat her, right? You do it, okay? You do it. And now, let me actually remember the word, because I, okay, so this is an easy word. It's a noun. It's a noun, and it's something related to school. Basically, I already told you. I already told you the word, right? So it's a word, and it's related to, it's a noun. It's related to school. It's related to, yeah, actually to school. It's a word that expresses the development of the people taking the course, and it's a way to actually say, it's a way to talk about any course you have, and it can be a university course. It can be an online course. It can be even the elementary course. Even the elementary course you took when you were a kid, that's still part of this word. This is like a general word that embraces the whole system. It's not class. It's not class. It's something else. It's something else. It's something more general. It's more general. It's like the, you could call it the industry, okay? You can call it, we're talking about the industry in general, not the single element. If you answer this one, not only does your vocabulary expand, but also your comprehension too, and you learn new vocabulary, new ways to listen to information, to receive and understand it. And this is exactly, this hour we're spending together is, of course, part of this broader topic. It's not instruction, but my dear Lolly, it's not instruction only because you are translating from French, right? I know that because we also have a very similar word in Italian. So it's not instruction because in English the word instruction is the step-by-step process to do something. For example, I need the instructions to fix this lamp, okay? This lamp is broken, so I need the instructions to fix it. But here, and it's not knowledge. Of course, knowledge, instruction, they're all part of it. But this is like the broader industry, the broader industry. Sometimes, yes, Lolly, education, education was the word. Oh my God, today Lolly is the best here. What's going on? What's going on? Last time I think even I won, and the day before, the time before, I don't remember anymore. But congratulations, congratulations. I still forget to use it. Very, very, very well, Lolly. That was excellent. That was excellent. Yes, good. The word education, in fact, is general for schooling, right? For school, for anything that is related to the development of the individual. Education, right? As you can see, if I place the word education here on Google, this is what you see, right? So you see books, you see people, usually kids learning, but also adults, right? Okay, this is an educational content. The video you're watching is, I hope, is actually useful for you, right? And if it's useful, then this is an educational content. Here you see, for example, the importance of education, okay? Education, which in Latin, in Latin, and this is why it's a pretty strange thing for us, from French people too, right? Because in Latin, the word educate is like a synonym for to behave good, to be good. Like, for example, if I'm an educated person, in Latin, it means that I smile, I am gentle with people, I'm care. No, no, I'm care. I treat people with care, okay? This is an educated individual in Latin, but in English, an educated individual is a person who went to school and is a person that knows many things, that has done many courses, that's an educated individual because the education is the school system. All right, and with this one, let's go ahead and you are surprised. Yeah, well, probably not only you are less surprised because you listened to the explanation, so let's go ahead with the word number three, let's go on. Okay, I take this one. Okay, that's easy, okay? This is an easy word too, okay? This is easy, so I wanted you to participate, okay? I know you that are not participating, yeah, yeah, you that are not participating, I want you to participate, all right? So, this word is an attribute and it has something to do with hands. So, when there are many things that can be done with the help of machines, but then you can always decide to do the same things without the help of machines. So, if you want to do something without the help of machines, you're going to actually use, you're going to use this word. And let me see, also, you see, the word I'm talking about is often used in cars, and I'm talking, I'm saying too much now, really, I'm saying too much, but the word I'm talking about is usually, it's very used with cars, okay? And specifically, when we're talking about the car shift, it's not the word hand, it's an attribute. An attribute is basically an adjective, especially in this particular case, we're talking about an adjective, right? It's something that is present in cars, not all cars, right? Because, just like I said, you can have something done by a machine or you can have something done by yourself. And if you use your hands to do it, this is when you use this word. And what else? What else? It's not homemade, you want to say, probably, and it's not homemade. Although, well, I mean, you are also right, because if you do something homemade, it means that you do it at home. So, it's possible that you're using your hands, because at home, maybe you don't have the machines you may have inside a factory, for example. But it's not homemade, because the word homemade doesn't necessarily mean that you do something by hand. It just means you do it at home. Yeah, I see, you wrote it down three times, right? Yeah, you got it now, yes. This is, it comes from Latin, okay? So, yes, yes, Irina. Manual, manual is the word. Congratulations, yeah. Lolly 2, Irina 1, right? Well done, well done, you girls. Very well, very well. Come on, guys. I know there are some guys with us. What's going on? Come on, don't you want to participate? Don't you want to win at least one point, one single point? How about that? Do we really need to be the ones who don't get any points, okay? Even us, the men, you know, deserve some points. Don't let all the points go to the girls, all right? So, do participate, okay? From scratch. That was another one. That's a nice one. But from scratch is when you do something from the beginning, okay? So, well, if I, for example, do something from scratch means that I have to write down everything from the beginning. This is the beginning, this is the end, okay? This is from scratch, from the beginning. But this has nothing to do with the word manual. Manual is the word. And just to make sure, I'm going to, once again, use our tool here, manual. It comes from Latin. Latin, I don't know how to say that. In Italian, it's mano, right? In English, it's hand, right? And manual, well, of course, it can also be like a manual. So, like a user manual or an instruction manual, which gives you the instructions, right, Raleigh? Which gives you the instructions to operate something. But other than that, this is the manual. But if manual is an adjective, not a noun, then it's something done by hand, okay? But I see here that there are no images supporting my thesis. So, I just closed it down. Forget it. It doesn't matter. Anyway, if you do something, for example, I mentioned the cars, okay? Cars have the car shift. And the car shift, car shift, right, is this one. Now, I guess that everyone is familiar with this tool. It's called car shift, all right? And it can be automatic, like this one, or it can be manual, like this one, all right? So, a manual car shift is called manual because it's your hand that operates the shifts of the car, whereas this one is done automatically. You see here, automatic, all right? And it's automatically transmitting the shift to the gears. But forget it. This is a bit too technical. But the point is that you actually are now, I guess you guys understood now the word manual, okay? So, we've just got a few minutes. So, maybe we're in time for the last word. How about that? Let's try. Let's try with the last word. Come on. We're going to be quick, all right? So, I want you guys to be quick and try, okay? You guys want to try. And here, this is the word for us, okay? This word is easy. It's a noun, okay? I want you guys to answer in the next four minutes, okay? It's a noun. And it's everywhere. It's literally everywhere. Everywhere. It's here, here, here, here. It's in any place, okay? It's where you are. It's where I am. It's where, I don't know, it's everywhere, okay? It's literally everywhere. What is it? Right? So, that's what you want to answer. If you are here, you want to answer, right? So, you really want, this is easy. You cannot not answer, all right? If you need it, it's something you need to live. Like, if you are a human being, then you need this to live. Yes, it's air. Yes, it's air. Well done. Well done, Lolly. That's right. It was air. Well done. Congratulations. Congratulations. Wow. Today, you are actually winning, Lolly, three points, with Irina only one. And the rest of you guys, I don't know where you've been, okay? I don't know. I don't know where you guys have been.
