Could you possibly change the captions to English from auto-generated, please? I really want to use this for my class, but we can't have videos that are auto-captioned due to accessibility standards. Thanks! Great content!

While writing is "formal" or "informal, " people write "formally" or "informally." Please be aware of your adverb and adjective usage.
