Description
Calling all music lovers!
Do you have a song that you love? Let’s learn English by studying the lyrics!
Send me the lyrics to your favorite song or (two or three), and we’ll study them together in class. We can even practice the grammar and vocabulary that appear in the song. Curious what that might look like? Here’s an example:
The Beatles: Can’t Buy Me Love
Can't buy me love, love
Can't buy me love
I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend
If it makes you feel alright
I'll get you anything my friend
If it makes you feel alright
'Cause I don't care too much for money
Money can't buy me love
I'll give you all I've got to give
If you say you love me too
I may not have a lot to give
But what I've got I'll give to you
I don't care too much for money
Money can't buy me love
Grammar/Expressions:
“I’ll buy you a diamond ring if it makes you feel all right”
Grammar point：I will [verb] if [subject]＋[verb].
例 1: I will go to Canada if the ticket prices go down.
例 2: I’ll make pancakes for you if I can find the ingredients.
“It makes you feel all right”
Grammar point：[Something] makes [someone] feel [an emotion].
例 1: Singing makes me feel happy.
例 2: That kind of job makes people feel exhausted.
“I don’t care too much for money”
Grammar point：[Someone] doesn't care for [something]
例 1: I don’t care much for your attitude.
例 2: She doesn’t particularly care for meat.
“I’ll give you all I’ve got to give”
Grammar point：[subject]＋[verb]＋ everything / all [subject]＋[verb].
例 1: We can do everything our teacher tells us to.
例 2: He has eaten everything this restaurant serves.
“What I’ve got I’ll give to you”
Grammar point：What [subject]＋[verb], [subject]＋[verb].
例 1: What we need we can find at the store.
例 2: What he had discovered, he didn’t like.
Wow! Who’d have guessed there was so much grammar hiding in such a simple song? By looking at new words and grammar, you can practice making your own sentences. And by having a tune to remember them by, memorizing grammar is as easy as Do Re Mi!
Don’t have a song in mind? No worries! I can also provide a song from YouTube, and we can study it together in class.
