Listener Feedback: Ivan from Cuba
Hi guys I'm Ivan and I'm Cuban that’s why my situation here with the internet is kind of complicated but I will always find a way to get your episodes.
I wanted to say that you guys are great and I believe truly in what you do.
I'd like to ask you about the use of ALL and EVERYTHING. That's all, thank you.

ALL and EVERYTHING = 100% of something or of a group

ALL

All + uncountable/plural countable nouns
eg. He ate all the food. (uncountable noun) / These students are all my friends. (plural countable noun)

Pronoun + all
eg.Craig and I love you all./ We all love holidays. / It all seemed a bit strange, from start to finish./ They all came to see us. / We love you all / We love all of our listeners.

All of + object form of pronoun (Compare with Pronoun + all)
eg. Craig and I love all of you.

We all love holidays / All of us love holidays.

It all semed a bit strange / All of it seemed a bit strange.

They all came to see us. / All of them came to see us.

All = all of + determiner (the, this, those, my, etc.) “All of” is more common in American Eng.

eg. Craig’s eaten all (of) the chocolate.

The listeners had heard all (of) my jokes before.

BUT COMPARE:
Not all podcasts are popular. (Talking about podcasts in general. No “the”; no “of”)
Not all (of) the podcasts are popular. (Talking about specific podcasts. eg. Aprender inglés con Reza y Craig podcasts.)


All's well with me at the moment.

All that matters is that YOU improve your English. (the only thing that matters.....)

All (that) I ever wanted was for Berta to love me.

All he wants now is to get a divorce.

'All' often goes with 'that' - We say Is everything finished? ~ Yes, everything is finished. (Not XIs all finishedX)


EVERYTHING

Everything = All + relative clause
eg. Reza gave Berta everything, but she still wasn’t satisfied. = Reza gave Berta all (that) he had, but she still wasn’t satisfied.
The bad businessman lost everything. = The bad businessman lost all (that) he owned.

EVERYTHING is usually used as a pronoun:
Everything is OK. / I did some work, but I didn't finish everything.

Everything substitutes 'other things', for example, "I had to reply to emails, make some images, record a podcast, phone my co-worker, post on Facebook.......but I didn't have enough time and I didn't do everything.

All = Everything/Everybody - dramatic/ poetic/ old-fashioned English
eg. I saw you with your new boyfriend last night. Tell me all/everything!
Newspaper headline: “Ship sinks. All are dead. No survivors.”

All = nothing more/the only thing(s)
eg. All (that) I ever wanted was for Berta to love me.
All we did was a friendly kiss on the cheek - nothing more. I promise!


Hi Craig! I am Karla from Costa Rica... I just wanted to thank you for this excellent tool that allows me to
practice and improve my English.
I am going to start a new job having interaction with people from different countries in Europe,
so I was concerned about accents and slang words.
As any language, I think it is about learning through daily interaction, right? Any advice? Thanks again!


Speak to people (Italki, language exchanges)
Listen to podcasts and watch TV series in English (Netflix, YouTube)

Mamen - Biescas, Huesca
Hi guys
Thank you so much for keeping working on your podcast so hard during the summer
We all appreciate your big effort!
This podcast had been so useful 'cause you get (give) me the opportunity to learn and improve every day
I wonder if you could help me with some issues that I always have.
Please, could you explain the difference between : fix, manage, figured out, make it?
I've heard these verbs in so many situations and it's a bit confusing.
Thank you so much
Hope you could manage or what ever with the hot summer.
BIG KISS

"I am trying now to get the Cambridge First Certificate, so I was looking for some audios in the internet in order to train my listening skills when I found your podcasts by chance.

I´d like to tell you that not only are your podcasts really useful to improve my listening and also
grammar skills, but they are also very funny, I have a good time with them. (I really enjoy them)
Actually, I usually go running twice or three times in a week and I do that listening to your episodes.
Sometimes you guys make me laugh and people who look at me running and laughing. They probably think that I am absolutely crazy.
