"All right, the last thing I want to talk about is "ing" endings. Whenever words end with an "ing", words like "hopping", "skipping", "leaving", "feeling", "dancing", whatever the word is, there is no rule on this one. But whatever the word is, you're going to drop the G. So instead of "dancing", you are "dancin". Instead of "hopping", you are "happin". Instead of "leaving", you are "leavin". All right? You want to do that for all of, all of your "ing" words. So repeat these after me, just for a couple of practice words. Slipping, "slippin". Running, "runnin". All right? And a sentence might sound something like this: "The endin of the film left one feelin like soichin for life." "The endin of the film left one feelin like soichin for life.""
