The word "gaslighting" comes from a play called "Gas Light." written in 1938 by Patrick Hamilton.
In this play, a husband tries to make his wife think she is losing her mind. He does some tricky things, like secretly making the lights from gas lamps in their house dimmer, and then he tells her that she's just imagining these changes. This play later became a movie.
Nowadays, when we say "gaslighting," we mean when someone tries to make another person unsure about their own memory or feelings, similar to what the husband did to his wife in the story.

When we talk about houses together, we say town if itâs small and city if itâs bigger. But if those houses are organized in a somewhat chaotic way, you might hear about a slum or a shantytown.
If we focus on buildings in general, a group of them can form a residential complex. And if there are many homes in one place, we talk about a neighborhood or even a housing development.

Have you ever wondered how to find more time to do something? I ask myself that all the time. In fact, I think time runs away from me, and I don't have time to chase it.
The truth is time flies. And it flies for everyone. We always have something to do in today's society, and there is never time for anything. But don't despair. Even in these circumstances, you can find a good strategy to learn English.
As you know, my system is based on listening. Therefore, it is a significant advantage since you can take the lessons wherever you want on your mobile, tablet, or laptop. There is no need to sit in front of the computer and start studying.
