To determine if you are obese, you can calculate your body mass index (BMI). BMI is a commonly used method to assess whether a person has a healthy body weight based on their height and weight. Here's how you can calculate your BMI:
- Measure your weight in kilograms (kg).
- Measure your height in meters (m).
Once you have these measurements, use the following formula to calculate your BMI:
BMI = weight (kg) / (height (m))^2
For example, if you weigh 80 kilograms and your height is 1.75 meters, the calculation would be:
BMI = 80 kg / (1.75 m)^2 = 26.1
After calculating your BMI, you can interpret the results using the following categories:
- Underweight: BMI less than 18.5
- Normal weight: BMI between 18.5 and 24.9
- Overweight: BMI between 25 and 29.9
- Obesity: BMI of 30 or higher
Keep in mind that while BMI is a useful tool for most individuals, it does have limitations. It doesn't account for factors such as muscle mass, bone density, and distribution of body fat. Therefore, it's essential to consider other factors and consult with a healthcare professional for a comprehensive assessment of your health.

Here are the first ten simple grammar rules to know in English that will help you avoid making mistakes:
Subject-verb agreement: Make sure the subject and verb agree in number (singular or plural). For example, "He plays soccer" (not "He play soccer").
Pronoun usage: Use the correct pronoun for the subject of the sentence. For example, "I went to the store" (not "Me went to the store").
Use of articles: Use "a" or "an" before a singular noun, and "the" before a specific noun. For example, "I bought a book" (not "I bought book").
Verb tense: Use the correct tense of the verb to indicate when the action is taking place. For example, "I am eating breakfast" (present tense) vs. "I ate breakfast" (past tense).
Use of prepositions: Use prepositions correctly to show the relationship between words. For example, "I am going to the store" (not "I am going at the store").
Adjective placement: Place adjectives before the noun they describe. For example, "the red car" (not "the car red").
Adverb usage: Use adverbs to modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. For example, "She sings beautifully" (adverb modifying verb).
Use of comparative and superlative forms: Use "er" or "more" to compare two things, and "est" or "most" to compare more than two things. For example, "She is taller than her sister" (comparative) vs. "She is the tallest person in her class" (superlative).
Sentence structure: Make sure your sentences have a subject, verb, and object. For example, "I am reading a book" (subject-verb-object).
Use of contractions: Use contractions (such as "can't" or "won't") in informal writing or conversation, but avoid them in formal writing.
Mastering these grammar rules will help you communicate more effectively and avoid common mistakes in English.

The story of King Midas is a tale from Greek mythology that teaches a moral lesson about the dangers of greed.
King Midas was a wealthy ruler who loved gold more than anything else in the world. One day, a satyr named Silenus, who was a friend of the god Dionysus, got lost in Midas' kingdom. Midas found Silenus and treated him kindly, and Dionysus was so grateful that he offered Midas a wish.
Midas wished that everything he touched would turn to gold. Dionysus granted his wish, but soon Midas realized the terrible mistake he had made. Everything he touched, including food and drink, turned to gold, and he could no longer eat or drink. He soon became hungry and thirsty, and even his beloved daughter turned to gold when he touched her.
Midas begged Dionysus to take back his gift, and Dionysus agreed on the condition that Midas would learn a valuable lesson. Midas washed his hands in a nearby river to remove the curse, and he learned that gold was not the most important thing in life. He learned to value the love of his family and the simple pleasures of life, such as food, drink, and companionship.
From that day on, Midas lived a humble and content life, and he was known for his wisdom and generosity. The story of King Midas serves as a warning against the dangers of greed and the importance of valuing the things that truly matter in life.
Here's a multiple choice question exercise based on the story of King Midas:
What did King Midas wish for when he was given the opportunity to make a wish?

d) To rule the entire world
What was the consequence of King Midas' wish?
a) Everything he touched turned to diamonds
b) Everything he touched turned to gold
c) Everything he touched disappeared
d) Everything he touched turned to stone
Why did King Midas regret his wish?
a) He realized that gold was not as valuable as he thought it was
b) He lost his ability to touch anything
c) His daughter turned to gold when he touched her
d) He was unable to share his wealth with others
What did King Midas learn from his experience?
a) That gold is the most important thing in life
b) That wealth should be shared with others
c) That it is important to value the love of family and simple pleasures in life
d) That it is important to be selfish and greedy

A simple poem for the spring season dedicated to children:
Spring is here, oh so dear,
With flowers blooming far and near,
The sun shines bright, the sky so clear,
The birds sing sweet, we clap and cheer.
The trees are green, the grass so tall,
The rain showers, the earth does call,
The butterflies dance, the bees do crawl,
We chase them all, having a ball.
We jump and skip, we run and play,
In the park, all throughout the day,
The breeze is warm, we shout hooray,
Spring is here, it's here to stay.
So let's enjoy this lovely season,
With all its beauty and good reason,
For spring brings joy and happiness,
To all the children, in sweet caress.

In grammar, a subject is the part of a sentence that performs the action of the verb or is the main topic of the sentence. It usually comes before the verb and answers the question "who" or "what" is doing the action.
Here is a chart to explain the concept of a subject:
Term Definition Subject The part of a sentence that performs the action of the verb or is the main topic of the sentence. Examples "The dog barks loudly" (The subject is "dog") "John and Jane are playing soccer" (The subject is "John and Jane") Position The subject usually comes before the verb in a sentence. Importance The subject is important because it tells us who or what is performing the action in the sentence. Agreement The subject and verb must agree in number (singular or plural). Identification To identify the subject, ask "who" or "what" is doing the action in the sentence.
For example, in the sentence "The cat is sleeping on the mat," the subject is "cat" because it is the one doing the action of sleeping. To identify the subject, ask "who is sleeping?" and the answer is "cat."
Teaching this concept with the help of a chart can be useful in helping students understand the importance and position of the subject in a sentence, as well as how to identify it.

Androcles and the Lion is a fable of Aesop that tells the story of a slave who escapes his cruel master and becomes friends with a lion in the wilderness. Here is the story:
Androcles was a slave who had escaped from his cruel master. He ran into the wilderness and, while hiding in a cave, stumbled upon a lion with a huge thorn in its paw. Androcles approached the lion, and to his surprise, the lion did not attack him. Instead, the lion lay down and held out its paw for Androcles to remove the thorn.
Androcles carefully removed the thorn from the lion's paw, and the lion roared with relief. From that moment on, the lion became Androcles' companion, bringing him food and protecting him from other animals. But eventually, Androcles was captured and returned to his master, who condemned him to death in the arena, to be torn apart by wild animals.
On the day of the spectacle, Androcles was thrown into the arena with a fierce lion. But as the lion charged at him, it recognized Androcles and ran towards him, wagging its tail. The audience was amazed to see the lion licking Androcles' feet and nuzzling its head against his chest. Androcles explained to the amazed crowd how he had helped the lion when it was injured and how it had become his friend.
The emperor, who was in the audience, was so impressed by the story that he pardoned Androcles and set him free, along with his lion companion. Androcles and the lion lived happily ever after.

Here's the fable of the lion and the bulls:
Once upon a time, there was a lion who ruled over a vast kingdom of animals. One day, he called together all the bulls of the land and declared that they were to provide him with food. The bulls were outraged by this and refused to comply, saying that they would rather die fighting than be the lion's prey.
The lion, who was cunning and shrewd, came up with a plan. He went to each bull individually and promised to spare them if they agreed to come to him alone. The bulls, not realizing that the other bulls were also being targeted, foolishly agreed.

Here is a chart to show the main uses of the definite article 'the' .
Use Examples Referring to a specific noun that has already been mentioned "I saw a cat in the park. The cat was black and white." Referring to a specific noun that is known to both the speaker and the listener "I parked the car in the garage." Referring to a specific noun that is unique or one-of-a-kind "The sun is shining brightly." Referring to a specific noun that is a part of a larger group or category "The red apple is my favorite fruit." Referring to a specific noun that is used as a general concept "The rain can be a nuisance."
As you can see, "the" is used to refer to a specific noun in a variety of contexts.

"The" is a definite article in English. It is used to refer to a specific, known or previously mentioned noun.
When we use "the," we are referring to a particular item or thing, and both the speaker and listener know which item is being referred to. For example, if someone says "the book," they are referring to a specific book that has been mentioned before, or one that is clearly identifiable based on context.
Here are some examples:
- Please pass me the salt. (referring to a specific container of salt)
- Have you seen the movie we talked about? (referring to a specific movie that was previously discussed)
- I parked my car in the garage. (referring to a specific garage that is known to the speaker and listener)
- The cat is sleeping on the couch. (referring to a specific cat that is in the room)
- She is wearing the blue dress that she bought last week. (referring to a specific dress that has been mentioned before)
In contrast, "a/an" are indefinite articles that are used to refer to a non-specific or unknown noun. They are placed before a singular noun and refer to any unspecified thing or item.
It is important to note that in some cases, no article is used at all. This occurs when referring to a non-specific, general noun or plural noun. For example:
- Dogs are great pets. (referring to dogs in general)
- I need to buy vegetables at the store. (referring to vegetables in general)
Overall, "the" is used to refer to a specific, known item or thing, while "a/an" are used to refer to non-specific or unknown items or things.

Write your own paragraph about parents.
Parents play an important role in the lives of their children. They are the first teachers, caregivers, and role models that we encounter. From infancy, parents provide us with love, support, and guidance. They teach us basic skills such as walking and talking, and help us to develop a sense of self-esteem and confidence. As we grow older, parents continue to be an important source of emotional support and encouragement. They help us to navigate the challenges of adolescence and provide us with advice and guidance as we begin to make our way in the world.

Once upon a time, there was a man named John who worked as a manager at a big company. John was a hard worker and expected the same from his team.

He saw them as expendable and not deserving of his time or attention.
One day, the company faced financial difficulties and had to lay off some employees. To his surprise, John's top performers were among those who were let go. It turned out that the company valued their skills, but not enough to keep them on during tough times. John realized that he had been wrong in his thinking.

Here is a chart to show the main uses of the definite article 'the' .
| Use | Examples |
|---|---|
| Referring to a specific noun that has already been mentioned | "I saw a cat in the park. The cat was black and white." |
| Referring to a specific noun that is known to both the speaker and the listener | "I parked the car in the garage." |
| Referring to a specific noun that is unique or one-of-a-kind | "The sun is shining brightly." |
| Referring to a specific noun that is a part of a larger group or category | "The red apple is my favorite fruit." |
| Referring to a specific noun that is used as a general concept | "The rain can be a nuisance." |
As you can see, "the" is used to refer to a specific noun in a variety of contexts.
Here are some examples:
- The dog barked at the mailman. (referring to a specific dog)
- Can you pass me the salt shaker? (referring to a specific container of salt)
- The Eiffel Tower is a popular tourist attraction in Paris. (referring to a specific landmark)
- Have you seen the movie that won the Oscar last year? (referring to a specific movie)

"The" is a definite article in English. It is used to refer to a specific, known or previously mentioned noun.
When we use "the," we are referring to a particular item or thing, and both the speaker and listener know which item is being referred to. For example, if someone says "the book," they are referring to a specific book that has been mentioned before, or one that is clearly identifiable based on context.
Here are some examples:
- Please pass me the salt. (referring to a specific container of salt)
- Have you seen the movie we talked about? (referring to a specific movie that was previously discussed)
- I parked my car in the garage. (referring to a specific garage that is known to the speaker and listener)
- The cat is sleeping on the couch. (referring to a specific cat that is in the room)
- She is wearing the blue dress that she bought last week. (referring to a specific dress that has been mentioned before)
In contrast, "a/an" are indefinite articles that are used to refer to a non-specific or unknown noun. They are placed before a singular noun and refer to any unspecified thing or item.
It is important to note that in some cases, no article is used at all. This occurs when referring to a non-specific, general noun or plural noun. For example:
- Dogs are great pets. (referring to dogs in general)
- I need to buy vegetables at the store. (referring to vegetables in general)
Overall, "the" is used to refer to a specific, known item or thing, while "a/an" are used to refer to non-specific or unknown items or things.

Every day starts precisely at midnight. AM (ante-meridiem = before noon) starts just after midnight. PM (post-meridiem=after noon) starts just after midday. This means that 12am and 12pm have no meaning.

What’s the easiest way to learn them? Some people think you should learn a list ‘by heart’. Others think you should not learn them at all – you will just gradually acquire them over time.
One useful method is to note down new irregular verbs as you meet them. It is useful to write these verbs (or any vocabulary you want to learn) in sentences and learn those rather than the individual word.
Which is easier to learn?
- Swim swam swum
- I swam In the pool.

Had better
We use “had better” plus the infinitive without “to” to give advice. Although “had” is the past form of “have”, we use “had better” to give advice about the present or future.
- You’d better tell her everything.
- I’d better get back to work.
- We’d better meet early.
- You’d better not say anything.
- I’d better not come.
- We’d better not miss the start of his presentation.
- You should brush your teeth before you go to bed.
- I shouldn’t listen to negative people.
- He should dress more appropriately for the office.
- You shouldn’t say anything.
- I should get back to work.
- We should meet early.
- You’d better do what I say or else you will get into trouble.

Problemet qe has nje student i cili meson gjuhen angleze mund te jene te natyrave te ndryshme. Shpesh here ato lidhen me menyren se si mund te ndertojme nje fjali te sakte.

Mesimi # 1
A. Sentence structure
Struktura e fjalise.
The parts of a sentence are the subject, verb, object, complement, and adverbial. A statement begins with the subject and the verb. There are five main structures which we can use to make a simple statement.
1 Subject Verb
Kryefjale + Folje
My arms are aching
Something happened
2. Subject Verb Object
Kryefjale + Folje + Kundrinor
I need a rest
Five people are moving the piano
The subject and the object can be a noun, a pronoun
(e.g. I) or a noun phrase (eg the piano)
Kryefjala dhe kundrinori mund te jene te shprehur me:
a) emer
b) peremer
c) grup emeror)
3. Subject Verb Complement
Kryefjale + Folje + Komplement ( mbiemer ose emer )
This piano is heavy
It was a big problem
The complement can be an adjective (e.g. heavy) or a noun phrase (e.g. a big problem). The complement often comes after be. It can also come after appear, become, get, feel, look, seem, stay or sound.
Per ta patur te qarte se cfare eshte termi "complement", do te ishte me mire te kuptonim se ai vjen menjehere mbas nje forme te foljes 'be'; dmth mund te vije mbas foljes, am is, are, was, were, been, be, being. Ai mund te jete:
a) mbiemer
b) emer
c) grup emeror.
Gjithashtu ai mund te vije edhe mbas foljesh te tilla si: appear, become,get,feel,look,seem, stay, ose sound. Keto folje quhen ndryshe = link verbs. Per keto folje ju mund te shikoni edhe nje mesim te cilin e kemi kaluar disa ore me pare ne keto faqe.
4. Subject Verb Adverbial
Kryefjale + Folje + Ndajfolje ose rrethanor
It is on my foot.
Their house is nearby.
5. Subject Verb Object Object
Kryefjale + Folje + Kundrinor + Kundrinor
It ‘s giving me backache.
David bought Melanie a present.
We use two objects after verbs like give and send.
Ne mund te perdorim dy kundrinore mbas foljesh te tilla si give dhe send.
B. Adverbials
We can add adverbials to all the five main structures.
My arms are aching terribly. I really need a rest.
Kryefjale + Folje
Something happened
Kryefjale + Folje + Kundrinor
Five people are moving the piano
The subject and the object can be a noun, a pronoun
Kryefjale + Folje + Komplement ( mbiemer ose emer )
Kryefjale + Folje + Ndajfolje ose rrethanor
Their house is nearby.
Kryefjale + Folje + Kundrinor + Kundrinor

Koha e tashme e foljes te jesh ( The present tense of the verb to be )
Folja to be eshte nje folje shume e rendesishme e gjuhes angleze. Gjate zgjedhimit ajo merr forma te ndryshme. Ne veten e pare te numurit njejes ajo behet am, ne veten e dyte numuri njejes apo shumes ajo eshte njesoj: are; ne veten e trete numuri njejes ajo del si: is. Ne veten e pare shumes apo ne veten e trete shumes kjo folje del ne formen: are. Me poshte po ju paraqes nje tabele te zgjedhimit te kesaj folje.
Gjate nje zgjedhimi normal nje folje paraqitet ne formen e saj deftore ( affirmative ); pastaj del ne formen pyetese ( Interrogative ) edhe gjithashtu del edhe ne formen mohore ( negative ).
Affirmative
( Full form )
I am
You are
He is
She is
It is
We are
You are
They are
Forma pyetese
Ne qofte se deshironi te ndertoni nje fjali pyetese ne gjuhen angleze kur ne kete fjali eshte pikerisht folja to be, atehere duhet ta vendosni kete folje perpara kryefjales. to be + subject.
Interrogative
Am I?
Are You?
Is he?
Is She?
Is it?
Are We?
Are you?
Are they?
Forma mohore e plote
Negative ( Full form )
I am not
You are not
He is not
She is not
It is not
We are not
You are not
They are not
Ne gjuhen e perditeshme, te bisedave, folja to be preferon te perdoret ne formen e shkurtuar te saj, dmth, ajo pergjithesisht lidhet me kryefjalen e vet me ane te nje apostrofi.
Forma deftore do te dukej si me psohte:
Affirmative ( Short form )
Ne gjuhen angleze ne shpesh kombinojme dy fjale bashke per te formuar nje fjale tjeter. Keto fjale te reja quhen shkurtime ( = contractions ).
Ne shpesh perdorim (') apostrofin per te formuar keto shkurtime.
Shkurtimet e numurit njejes jane:
( Contractions in the singular are )
I'm
You're
He's
She's
It's
Shkurtimet e numurit shumes jane:
( Contractions in the plural are )
We're
You're
They're
Ne formen e vet mohore, ne biseda folja to be bashkohet edhe me pjesezen mohuese not edhe formon kete lloj shkurtimi:
I'm not
You aren't
He isn't
She isn't
It isn't
We aren't
You aren't

Te dashur studente,
Me poshte do te mundohem t'ju paraqes nje mesim te gjuhes angleze, te cilin ju duhet ta lexoni me kujdes edhe ne qofte se do te keni gjera te paqarta atehere do ti diskutojme bashke kur te takohemi ne mesimin e radhes se dites se shtune.
fm
Sot tema do te jete:
Peremrat vetore ( = Personal Pronouns ) ose sic njihen ndryshe (= Subject Pronouns )
Ne gjuhen angleze peremrat vetore jane: I, you, he,she,it,we,you,they.
Permemrat vetore ndahen ne numurin njejes dhe shumes. Singular ( one person ) and plural ( more than one person )
Peremrat e numurit njejes jane:
I - peremer vetor, veta e pare numuri njejes = personal pronoun, first person, singular.
You - peremer vetor veta e dyte numuri njejes = personal pronoun,second person singular. Ky peremer pergjithesisht ju drejtohet formalisht dhe informalisht individeve te vetes se dyte ne numurin njejes edhe ne numurin shumes. Edhe ne rastet kur ne i drejtohemi me respekt dikujt si i panjohur apo kur i drejtohemi dikujt te cilin ne e njohim shume mire, ne perdorim te njejten menyre adressimi: You.
He - peremer vetor veta e trete numuri njejes, gjinia mashkullore; = third person, singular, masculine. It refers to a male person or male animal.
She - peremer vetor veta e trete numuri njejes, gjinia femerore; = personal pronoun, third person, singular, feminine. She refers to a female person,or sometimes to a female animal.
It - peremer veteor, veta e trete, numuri njejes, pergjithesisht sherben per t'ju referuar sendeve, objekteve, fenomeneve, ose kafsheve. It refers to a thing, or animal, but not to a person.
Peremrat e numurit shumes jane: ( The plural personal pronouns are: )
We - peremer vetor, veta e pare numuri shumes. = personal pronoun, first person, plural.
They - peremer vetor veta e trete numuri shumes. = personal pronoun, third person, plural.
Peremrat vetore te vetes se trete numuri njejes: he, she,it; apo te vetes se pare shumes : we, te vetes se dyte njejes dhe shumes You, apo they te vetes se trete shumes mund t'ju referohen sendeve, objekteve, frymoreve si me psohte:

Shumesi i emrave ne gjuhen angleze.
- Nje fjale e cila emerton vetem nje person, vend apo send thuhet se eshte fjale e numurit njejes. P.sh. house garden flower
Nese nje fjale emerton me teper se nje njeri, vend a send, eshte nje fjale ne numurin shumes.
Exapmle: houses gardens flowers
Shikoni dhe studioni shembujt e meposhtem:
Singular Plural
telephone telephones
book books
bus buses
story stories
key keys
potato potatoes
Cfare duhet te kemi parasysh kur duam te ndertojme numurin shumes te emrave te gjuhes angleze?
Le te ndjekim disa rregulla si me poshte:
a) Pjesa me e madhe e emrave te gjuhes angleze e nderton shumesin e vet thjesht duke i shtuar mbaresen -s fjales baze.
eg. book - books garden - gardens place - places room - rooms
b) Ne qofte se emri baze ne gjuhen angleze mbaron me tingujt -s, -sh, -ch, -x, ose me -z, atehere atij i shtohet mbaresa -es.
eg. bus - buses dish - dishes match - matches fax - faxes
c) Ne qofte se emri mbaron me nje tingull bashketingellor edhe shoqerohet ne fund me nje -y, atehere kjo -y, bie edhe shnderrohet ne mbaresen -ies.
eg. army - armies baby - babies country - countries story - stories
d) Por ne qofte se nje emer mbaron me tingull zanor edhe perfundon me -y, atehere atij i shtohet vetem mbaresa -s per te dhene idene e numurit shumes.
eg. day - days toy - toys boy - boys key - keys
e) ne qofte se nje emer perfundon me tingullin -f ose -fe, atehere -f, shndrohet ne -v, edhe asaj i shtohet mbaresa -s ose -es.
eg. wife - wives knife - knives leaf - leaves loaf - loaves
Por nuk duhet harruar se rregullat kane edhe perjashtimet e veta. Ne rastin tone bejne perjashtim dy emra: chief - chiefs dhe roof - roofs
f) Ne qofte se emri mbaron me tingullin -o, edhe paraprihet nga nje bashketingellore atehere ne numurin shumes ketij emri i shtohet mbaresa - es.
eg. potato - potatoes tomato - tomatoes hero - heroes
Ne kete rregull bejne perjashtim disa emra te cilet lidhen me muziken si psh:
eg. piano - pianos solo - solos soprano - sopranos
g) Ne qofte se emri te cilin duam ta kthejme ne numurin shumes mbaron me zanoren -o edhe njekohesisht paraprihet nga nje tjeter zanore atehere ketij emri i shtohet vetem mbaresa - s.
eg. radio - radios zoo - zoos video - videos patio - patios
h) Ne qofte se nje emer eshte i perbere, atehere shumesi i tij ndertohet duke kaluar ne shumes vete emerin ne perberje edhe jo pjesen tjeter.
eg. pair of pants - pairs of pants
piece of cake - pieces of cake
mother-in-law _ mothers -in-law
loaf of bread - loaves of bread
i) Ne qofte se nje nje numur , nje shkronje apo nje shenje do te konsiderohet si nje fjale- emer e gjuhes angleze atehere per te ndertuar numurin shumes do te na duhet te vendosim apostrof ne fund te tyre edhe pas apostriofit te shtojme mbaresen -s.
eg. 1960 - 1960's 10 - 10's ABC - ABC's A- A's
j) Por Mos u cudisni kur te shikoni se disa fjale jane njesoj si ne numurin njejes po ashtu edhe ne numurin shumes.
eg. fish - fish deer - deer sheep - sheep trout - trout
k) Ka emra te tjere ne gjuhen angleze te cilet e ndertojne numurin shumes ne menyre te crregullt, dmth me ndryshime fonetike, me ndryshime shqiptimi te fjaleve.
eg. man - men person - people mouse - mice
woman - women tooth - teeth goose - geese
child - children foot - feet ox - oxen
l) Ka gjithashtu disa emra te tjere te cilet jane gjithmone ne numurin shumes.
eg. clothes pajamas pants mathematics
scissors physics mumps pants
gloves slacks pliers
- Nje fjale e cila emerton vetem nje person, vend apo send thuhet se eshte fjale e numurit njejes. P.sh. house garden flower
