excuse me
i'm still confuse about what the difference between get up and wake up?
anyone tell me,please?
thank you
Hi Charles. That's a good question. Well, there's a slight difference. Get up means get out of bed, but you wake up when you've finished sleeping.
Here's an example. Every day I wake up at 7:30 a.m., when my alarm goes off. I stay in bed for 10 or 15 more minutes, and then I get up (at about 7:45) and have breakfast.
Can you understand the difference?
Jonathan (LearnEnglish Teens Team)
Hi jonathan
yes, I can
Thank for your answer
could I ask you again?
Hi Charles. Sure, if you have another question, go ahead and post it in a comment. Some of our users may try to help too :)

oh thank you
I find many words like gotta,gonna and wanna. they use in british or america and they are formal or informal.
thank you
Hi Charles. Yes, these words are very common, aren't they? Have you heard them in films and songs? These are quite informal, so they're fine when you are speaking but in writing you should use the long forms (got to, going to, want to). And these are common in both British English and American English. How about you, do you say gonna or going to?
Jonathan (LearnEnglish Teens Team)
oh,thank you
I say "going to" but I often say wanna and even in writing, oh I've made a mistake.
Actually what's the difference between british and american english? could you tell me,please?
If you are emailing or messaging your friends, wanna is fine so don't worry! But if you're writing something more formal such as something for school, you should use want to. :)
British and American English are actually more similar than different and many things are the same. But there are some important differences. For example, do you say lift or elevator? The first one is British English and the second one is American. Have a look at this page on the LearnEnglish site for adults to learn more. There's also a funny video on the site about this topic :)
Good luck with your studies.

Thank for your answer.
Is it okay if we abbreviate auxiliary verb for writing something more formal such as for school ?
e.g. : she is beautiful = she's beautiful
Thank you
I'll be waiting for your answer.
Hi Charles. If you’re writing something formal, use the full form and not the abbreviated form. Formal pieces of writing include essays, letters and reports. But if you’re writing something informal, such as a letter to a friend or a blog, the abbreviated form is fine and full forms are often used too. Good luck with all your writing :)

Oh thank you
In future tense, there are "will" and "be going to". what is difference between them?
sorry do you have facebook or twitter account?could I know? If you want
