Small correction: The verb "Stand" takes both the gerund and infinitive after. So you can say "I can't stand waiting in line" or "I can't stand to wait in line".

I love your grammar lessons, I'm anxious for a video about present perfect and past simple. I always get confused with the present perfect

[AndresCarpio-ggme]

That is the type of teaching that I really love, thank you very much for sharing, I don't know why in English class at the university they can't teach, clearly and simply.

My great teacher, keep continues to teach these increrible lessons. I'm in the 5th semester of my english course, and they only teach "philosofical linguistics" there.

[millenaalonso]

Awesome video! I already watched a few times in order to memorizing which verbs take the gerund and the infinitive, grammar is my "calcanhar de Aquilis". I don't know if I wrote this Brazilian popular phrase right, but I guess is understandable 😂😂
