Past simple

The first day of spring was about a month
ago, but today is the first day where it really

So I thought this would be a good time to
do an English video to help you learn some

words and phrases about the season of spring.

Well hey welcome to this video where I'm going
to help you learn some English words and phrases

It's definitely spring here in Canada, but
before we get started if this is your first

time here don't forget to click the subscribe
button below and the bell icon so that you

can know when I put out a new video, and give
me a thumbs up if this video's helping you

Well it's definitely spring here in Canada.

You can see that the lawn behind me is green
and I'm just gonna take you on a little tour

and show you some of the things that we would
call the first signs of spring.

You've probably noticed already that I'm dressed
differently than I normally am when I make

a video because it's spring and it's so warm
out here, instead of wearing my spring jacket

I'm currently wearing a short sleeved shirt.

And I have my hat because it's quite bright
out here and I like the front part here to

And I have my sunglasses with just in case
as well.

So one of the things you'll see at springtime
is people will start to wear different clothes.

I haven't started to wear shorts, but it's
definitely warm enough that I can come outside

I can have a short sleeved shirt on and I'm
very, very warm actually.

It's kind of funny to do a video about spring
when it's almost like summer.

One other thing you'll also notice is people
start to open the windows on their houses

It's really nice that winter is over because
we've had the house closed up for so long.

It's nice that we can open our windows and
we can get some fresh spring air kind of blowing

through the house a little bit just to kind
of freshen things up a bit.

I think I should clean this window though.

I should do a little bit of spring cleaning.

So we don't quite have leaves on the trees
yet, but we do have what we call buds.

So if I bring this close to the camera you
can see that we have these little buds here

and as spring goes on these will eventually
open up and this tree will be totally full

I'm looking forward to that because once the
tree has leaves we'll have a little bit of

So trees when they get buds is definitely
another sure sign that spring is here.

This tree here still has buds but eventually
it will have blossoms.

So blossoms are small flowers that some kinds
of trees have in the spring.

We're going to have to wait a couple weeks
though before we can see that happen, but

this tree will eventually, the buds will turn
into blossoms and then it will also start

So blossoms are another sign of spring, we're
just not far enough into spring yet to see

So another thing that happens in the spring
is we start to see a lot more birds.

I'm actually trying to sneak up right now
on a robin.

So another sign that spring is here, birds
come back and birds start to chirp and birds

Another cool sign of spring is some of the
early flowers start to grow.

Over here we actually have some tulips that
are starting to come up.

I'm gonna walk out here just to give you a
little peek.

They're kind of hard to see, but at this point
in the spring, it's really neat to see some

of the early flowers start to push their way
out of the ground.

They start to grow and eventually they bloom
and we see a nice spring flower.

So, so I looked all over the farm and I could
only find this daffodil that's close to blooming,

but I couldn't actually find any flowers for
you.

Another thing that we do in the spring, and
that's definitely a sign of spring, is we

Because the winter is so harsh it blows a
lot of branches off of trees and when we go

out in our yards in Canada in the spring we
have to do a little bit of yard work.

Yard work is when you clean up your yard.

So you can see here I gotta clean up some
sticks.

There's this old pail that came from somewhere,
I don't know where it came from, but I definitely

have some yard clean up to do today or maybe
throughout the week ahead.

So you can't actually see these 'cuz they're
really little but, there's all tiny insects

They're very, very small, and it's, it's another
thing that we see in the spring.

So today's a really nice day but that isn't
always the case.

Usually in the spring it rains a lot so we
end up with a lot of puddles.

We call these mud puddles and we end up with
a lot of mud.

So if you look down here, let me see if I
can get that in the shot, there's a lot of

Just brown soil and dirt that's gotten really,
really wet.

So it's very muddy and it's very wet out here
in the spring.

In fact sometimes it rains so much that the
river floods.

So if you look out this way, normally the
bank of the river is somewhere around there,

but because we've gotten so much rain the
river has jumped it's bank and it has flooded

It's actually a little bit too wet right now,
but another thing we have to do in the spring
