In this lesson, we'll take a closer look at the past participle forms of 'to be' and 'to go' ... Because sometimes, they are exactly the same! Look at these examples:
He has been hungry for hours! (verb to be)
He has been to Canada twice. (verb to go)
😣😣😣
I want to help you feel more confident when you are using these verbs... So, let's practise!

Wow, Emma! This video almost made my head explode! As a native English speaker, I've never thought about the difference between "been" and "gone". Thanks for explaining it so clearly. You're amazing!
-
Thank you Emma for your work. It is clear, well explained and helpful. My students will certainly learn from these videos in addition to my lessons. Vive la France, Vive l’Australie!

Emma, you definitely opened a new gate of knowledge on my brain. I'd never ever heard that past participle of "to go" were "gone" and "been" from any instructor. And the way you explain it,...wow!!! You're fabulous!!! I've always used "I've already/never been to a place.", but I couldn't see no sense in the usage of "been". And now everything makes sense. You've just set me free, Emma. And I'm thankful for that. Cheers
