Is 'Partner with' UK's English? Is 'Emphasise on' correct? Learn a new word for someone who doesn't drink alcohol.

Good morning KIB students.
I do hope you had a beautiful night rest.

A few days ago,  we learnt that food eaten in between lunch and dinner is called high tea,  tea meal or simply 'tea'.
What did you have for tea?  I had biscuits and peanuts for tea.  She had jollof rice for tea.

Okay let's get down to brass tacks.  We know the word 'Partner',  right?

In British English,  you can say 'partner somebody or partner with somebody.

  In American English,  it is still the same thing.

Here are a few examples.

1.I partnered Chioma at the last dance.
2. She partnered me
3. For me to prosper I need to partner her
4. She was partnered by Emeka.
5. You have to partner someone at the moment.

The same thing with 'emphasise'.

'Emphasise on' is wrong both in The UK and the US.  native speakers say  'emphasise something'
1. He emphasised the need to be healthy
2. He emphasised the reason why he couldn't make it.

Finally,  when you want to say you don't care,  I would prefer you say
I don't give a hoot or I don't care two hoots.
Some people say 'I don't give two spoons'. It probably has become Nigerian English,  but for you to be correct,  say 'I don't give  a hoot'

Finally,  today's new word will interest you.

If you don't take alcohol, there is a name you are called.
It is teetotaler.

Pronounced as
/tea-TOtal-er/

Finally, the class with King Ifey is done and dusted.
Tell your friends about the live class in Port Harcourt. It will start in August.  Prepare to register and within 3 months,  I will give you all the secrets to transforming your spoken English.

Don't say your case is severe,  mine was very severe before I started learning by myself and getting better as the days go buy.
I will encourage you to be part of the live class in Port Harcourt.

It will be around  Rumuigbo.  So help inform your friends. For further enquiries,  please send a mail to mclightonline@gmail.com.

Good bye Class
