   Tutor Imagine giving a short presentation every Friday. Over
7. 0:23
   Tutor time, you feel more confident. You might say, practice
8. 0:27
   Tutor and confidence often go hand in hand. The expression
9. 0:30
   Tutor presents them as closely connected. Here, nobody is
10. 0:34
    Tutor literally holding hands; we're describing a relationship between
11. 0:38
    Tutor ideas.
12. 0:39
    Tutor These pairs illustrate one meaning: two things
13. 0:43
    Tutor are closely connected and often occur together, or one
14. 0:46
    Tutor accompanies the other. The connection can involve skills,
15. 0:50
    Tutor relationships or duties. Both things don't have to be
16. 0:54
    Tutor pleasant. Greater freedom can go hand in hand with greater
17. 0:57
    Tutor responsibility.
18. 0:59

    Tutor go hand in hand in summer. Does swimming cause those sales?
20. 1:07
    Tutor This sentence doesn't establish that. Hot weather could
21. 1:10
    Tutor help explain both. The idiom describes a connection;
22. 1:14
    Tutor evidence is needed to say what causes what.
23. 1:17
    Tutor There are two useful patterns. Trust and honesty
24. 1:21
    Tutor go hand in hand joins two subjects with and. Trust
25. 1:26
    Tutor goes hand in hand with honesty makes trust the subject and
26. 1:29
    Tutor introduces the second idea with with. For the past,

    Tutor use went: expansion went hand in hand with higher
28. 1:37
    Tutor costs.
29. 1:38
    Tutor At a bicycle repair workshop, the instructor explains a
30. 1:42
    Tutor repair, then learners try it immediately. Learning
31. 1:46
    Tutor goes hand in hand with doing. This describes the way the workshop
32. 1:50
    Tutor works: explanation and practical experience accompany
33. 1:53
    Tutor each other. It doesn't mean they are exactly the same activity.
34. 1:58
    Tutor Say hand in hand as a connected group, with
35. 2:01
    Tutor the two hands clearly stressed. In is usually lighter.
36. 2:05
    Tutor Then attach with and your second idea. Keep
37. 2:09
    Tutor the rhythm comfortable; you don't need to give every small
38. 2:12
    Tutor word equal weight to make yourself understood.
39. 2:15
    Tutor This expression fits everyday conversation, workplace discussion
40. 2:20
    Tutor and many kinds of writing. In a report, explain
41. 2:23
    Tutor the connection rather than relying on the idiom alone. Words
42. 2:27
    Tutor like often and can help limit your claim when the relationship
43. 2:30
    Tutor isn't universal. Choose them to match your evidence.
44. 2:35
    Tutor A common mistake is changing hand to hands. Keep
45. 2:38
    Tutor both instances singular: hand in hand. Also
46. 2:42
    Tutor remember with when you add the second idea after the expression.
47. 2:46
    Tutor Success often goes hand in hand with effort is natural,
48. 2:50
    Tutor without promising that effort always guarantees success.
49. 2:54
    Tutor Now listen to four short conversations: two British
50. 2:57
    Tutor and two American. Identify the connected ideas,
51. 3:01

53. 3:09
    Tutor conversation again.

    Jessica Good idea. I'll call them.
73. 4:15

75. 4:22
    Tutor improve the food.

84. 4:48
    Alice It doesn't tell us why.
85. 4:49
    Alice So we can't say one causes the other.
86. 4:57
    Tutor George accepts a link without a proven cause. Alice
87. 5:01
    Tutor explicitly says the survey cannot explain why the two things
88. 5:04
    Tutor go together.
89. 5:06
    George So reading makes people sleep better?
90. 5:09
    George Reading and good sleep go hand in hand in this survey.

97. 5:31
    Roger first bowl fell apart too.
98. 5:32
    Roger All right. I'll give it another try.
99. 5:41

106. 6:01
     Tutor Your turn. Say, confidence goes hand in
107. 6:05
     Tutor hand with practice. Then replace confidence and practice with
108. 6:08
     Tutor two ideas from your work or interests. Think about the connection
109. 6:12
     Tutor before you speak.
110. 6:20
     Tutor Remember, the expression doesn't prove a cause, and it
111. 6:23
     Tutor doesn't require two positive ideas. You can discuss costs,
112. 6:28
     Tutor problems or risks. It also works beyond casual
113. 6:31
     Tutor speech, although a precise explanation of the relationship
114. 6:35
     Tutor may be better in technical writing.
115. 6:37
     Tutor Choose go or goes according to the subject, and
116. 6:41
     Tutor went for a past connection. One final distinction:
117. 6:45
     Tutor two unrelated events can happen at the same time. Saying
118. 6:49
     Tutor they go hand in hand suggests a closer relationship.
119. 6:53
     Tutor Shared timing alone may not justify that description.
