❌ "Explain me"?

This is incorrect in standard English.

The verb "explain" usually needs "to" before a person:

* Explain to me
* Explain to us
* Explain to her

Structure:

Explain + thing + to + person
* Explain it to me.
* Explain the lesson to me.
* Explain the problem to her.

Examples
❌ Explain me this lesson.
✅ Explain this lesson to me.

❌ Can you explain me?
✅ Can you explain it to me?

𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞'𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡:
▪️ 𝑫𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒔𝒕𝒖𝒅𝒚 𝑬𝒏𝒈𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒉; 𝒍𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒊𝒕
Set your phone, apps, and social media to English. You’ll start learning naturally just by using them every day.
▪️𝑭𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒐𝒘 𝑬𝒏𝒈𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒉 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆
Follow pages or creators that teach English or share simple content. Your feed will become your classroom.
▪️𝑴𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝑬𝒏𝒈𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒉 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕
Watch movies, YouTube, or listen to music in English. Start with subtitles, then slowly remove them as you improve.
▪️ 𝑺𝒕𝒐𝒑 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈, 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒏 𝑬𝒏𝒈𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒉
Instead of translating from Khmer, try to understand the idea directly in English. It’s difficult at first, but it becomes easier over time.
▪️𝑷𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒆 𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒅𝒂𝒚
Talk about your daily life, your plans, or your feelings in simple English. Even a few minutes of speaking daily can make a big difference over time.

Instead of memorizing single words, learn how words are used together in real life. Example: instead of only learning “sense”, learn “That makes sense”.
▪️𝑩𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕
Spending 15 minutes every day is better than 5 hours once a week. Doing something a little bit every day is better than doing a lot once and stopping.
