Stop Saying Explain You: The Correct Way to Say It

I will explain you the details' sounds fine in many languages, but in English it is incorrect. The verb 'explain' cannot take a person directly after it. You explain something to someone. In this video, you will learn the correct structure and two natural alternatives. First, 'I'll explain the details to you later.' Put the thing you explain first, then 'to' and the person. You can also say 'I'll explain to you how it works.' Second, 'I'll walk you through the details.' This phrase means to explain something step by step, and it is very common at work, especially when showing processes or software. Third, 'I'll go over the details with you soon.' To 'go over' means to review or check something together carefully. Both alternatives sound friendly and professional. Other verbs follow the same rule as 'explain', such as 'describe' and 'suggest'. We say 'describe it to me', not 'describe me it'. This is a very common mistake, so fixing it will instantly improve your accuracy. Watch the video, repeat each correct sentence, and practice by explaining a simple task to a friend using these structures.
