wanna speak real English from your first lesson sign up for your free lifetime account at English class 101.com hi everybody my name is Alisha and I am joined again in the studio by Michael hello and today we're going to be talking about English conversation strategies so let's get right into it let's start with Michael what is your first strategy for keeping an english conversation going this is very important don't say I'm fine thank you and you you hear this all the time from second language English learners or non-native speakers you learn this it's one of the first things you learn in an English class it's easy it's good its basic its foundation okay that's fine but as soon as you can switch it up because to me when I meet a foreigner and they come up and if they say hey how are you say oh I'm fine you know I'm good whatever how about you and they say I'm fine thank you and you and it's just it's almost robotic because I've said it so many times and when I hear that I think their English isn't that good and inside I'm just gonna be really polite and say hello and talk slowly and try to get out of there as quick as I can so really impress the foreigner in my opinion I think the best way to do it is say something you know you use a big word or just like a slang word something like that when I hear that I go wow man I want to know what this person thinks I want to get their point of view and I'm really excited and then I've had great conversations because of that um yeah that's a really really good one and actually I think on this YouTube channel actually from a couple years ago there's a video all about better answers to the question how are you then I'm fine thank you and you or if someone says hey how are you I'm good you are fine you never I'm fine thank you and you never but try to actually use you know afraid that a native speaker would use and then that's a clue to the native speaker that oh maybe this person is ready for a conversation beyond you know basic English so that's a really good point I like that I didn't think of things not to do I only thought of things to do oh okay cool um let's see let's go to my first one oh so this strategy in general is just ask the other person a question I think and I'm guilty of this too when I'm learning another language I tend to only get input like somebody else is always asking me the questions and then I forget myself to ask the other person a question so one question that I like to ask or you know a variation any kind of WH question is good like a food question what where something like this if you've been paying attention you can use any way to transition in your conversation this was in a previous video you can ask something like anyway up to anything fun this weekend this is a pretty casual conversational question than she can ask just about anybody whether you've just met them or whether you've known them for a while but just just get in the habit of asking other people the question don't wait for someone else to ask you the question so that that's one strategy that I try to use to keep things going yeah me too I agree and I'm gonna say samesies because actually two of my questions were exactly what you said agree 100% this is kind of cheating these should be one but so always ask questions so you know again you forget it's really easy I'm really guilty of this English non English whatever I'm guilty of this and the other thing is ask deep open-ended questions so if you ask a yes-or-no question so again like Alicia was saying it just dead ends you can't just say you know do you like cheese yes or no right so you want to say what do you think about cheese what is your favorite kind and kind of open it up to something else and let it let it just kind of snowball yeah I think I think that's that's really a key like I have another variation I wish I guess I'll just continue on because it kind of relates to what you're talking about like he's saying always ask questions always ask deep open-ended questions so like you meant you just said don't ask a yes-or-no question because yes or no ends with the yes or the no so one of the things that I'll do is use a pattern similar to this like hey did you see or hey did you hear about blah blah blah so you can use this little blah blah blah as your you can ask about the news you can ask about something funny you saw on the internet you can ask about you know some something that you heard from another friend of yours whatever it's just a way to check in with the other person and say oh did you also experience this thing that I experienced let's talk about that so that might be another question that you can use with people I like that one I really like that one because you got to stay within people's comfort zone so maybe you asked and maybe they don't want to write so a good thing is did you hear about it that's up to them maybe they don't want to talk about it they can say oh yeah I heard about that and you can kind of feel the the atmosphere and and realize maybe I shouldn't talk about this change the subject or they get passionate and they start talking about it and there you go and just let it go yeah absolutely one thing again I'm guilty of is is you do got to keep keep returning it right don't just say oh yeah and what I think about that uh bring you back ask them what about you that's a common thing I forget about yeah yeah yeah okay um good I have one more this one um use when you see Fitz don't I guess just okay I'll just introduce it compliment the other person or compliment the other person's this can be a nice strategy just to show that you're enjoying the other person's company it can be as simple as oh I like your shirt today or oh that's a nice dress you're wearing today or oh did you get a new haircut that looks good on you something like that so this is a nice a nice way to make the other person maybe you want to spend more time with you I think yeah I agree 100% two things one I think it's a good conversation starter sometimes if you've got to be careful with the stranger it can be creepy it can be a little uncomfortable what you're complimenting right but if it's something like if they have a t-shirt and it's a band that you both like that's a great conversation starter and you feel wow we're connected you know number two the second thing I was thinking about is that keep it honest I love I love a sincere compliment it really means a lot more and and it really does butter them up kind of get them open to having more conversations deeper that kind of thing but one of the things people do which which I don't like is let's say they say hey nice shirt and then the person out of habit will say oh you too I like your shirt too just my opinion I don't think this feels really natural doesn't really feel sincere so I would I would save it make a mental note and go hmm I need to return the favor I need to give them a compliment but wait until you notice something you really do like and say hey actually I love blah blah blah yeah I think that's a great point like when you you can sense whether someone is being sincere or not what is your next strategy for continuing an English conversation well don't be afraid to open up I like this one I think this is good a lot of people will be kind of shy they won't open up too much again within within your comfort zone but I like this one because people will return the favor because if you're just having small talk and you say you know the weather is nice today blah blah blah you can only go so far so don't be afraid to say something personal again trust your judgment there'll be a creeper don't go we don't want to hear certain things about your life don't don't be a creep don't be a creep don't be weird don't be strange and like what you're saying about opening up open up is just a phrase that means to share something about yourself so it can be as simple as what you did last weekend or what you're going to do this weekend or a project that you have coming up it doesn't mean that you have to spill all of your life secrets to the other person but just showing that you're willing to share something more personal about yourself can help ingratiate yourself or can help you know make the other person help the other person understand you a little bit better that's a good tip I like that tip that's hard to do though it's hard it's a little bit scary I think to share parts of yourself but it's good it's good way to meet people and make friends all right I think that's all is that all that you have yeah that's all I got okay all right well those are some interesting strategies to keep an english conversation going so give them a try if you're ever at a loss for words and don't know what to say you can try one of these strategies and hopefully it will help you out please let us know if you have any other strategies or anything else that you would like to use or you try to use when you are having trouble keeping a conversation going leave us a comment and let us know what it is top ten language learning strategies let's begin the friending or dating someone who speaks English watching movies or listening to music in English read English newspapers or magazines record your voice and compare your pronunciation with native English speakers download dialog tracks and listen to English conversations repeat the phrases that you hear out loud again and again review all the lessons on English class 101.com to master them completely read lines slowly at first then reread and increase your speed set small and measurable learning goals with your personal deadlines try harder lessons to challenge yourself and improve faster and ways to stop translating in your head let's get started identify objects around you in English the first way to stop translating in your head is to identify the objects around you in your target language so if you're studying English that means you look at the objects around the room look at the things in your life don't think of them in your native language first think of them in your target language first so if I look around the room I see a computer I shouldn't think my native language word I should think my target language words so start with the items and the situations in your everyday life if I say computer in English maybe I should say computer in Japanese I should say not I don't know water in English I should say Oh Mesa in Japanese so start associating the words in your target language with your everyday life now so if you're studying English that means start getting familiar with the things in your everyday life in English repeat phrases you hear native speakers use tip number two is to repeat the phrases that you hear native speakers use so if you're watching this channel for example or you're watching a TV show or a movie listen for the way that native speakers make those phrases if you hear a phrase you have never heard before or you hear an interesting combination of words try to repeat them yourself don't just listen try to save them yourself if you're in a public space and it's difficult for you to do that fine practice in a place where you feel more comfortable maybe if you have some private space to practice just repeat them get your mouth used to saying the words the way that the speakers the native speakers do so if you never actually say words if you're only taking in if you're only listening and you're not actually producing the language it's it's kind of hard to to practice and to to really hone your pronunciation to improve your pronunciation so when you listen to native speakers try to repeat after them so for example if you're studying English you can try to repeat after this video you can repeat after the things I'm saying because maybe I'm using an expression or I'm using a certain series of vocabulary words together the way a native speaker would and it's maybe a good idea to try to practice the ways that native speakers put their words together so try to repeat after native speakers especially when you're looking at media and you can do this when you're reading books too you can try to read out read out loud interesting lines of books that you find or something that maybe is difficult for you very nice practice to make a situation where you can't escape into your native language make a situation where you can't escape into your native language essentially means immerse yourself of course going to that country are going to a place where you can speak only that language is very difficult for some of you totally understand but if in your life you can create a situation in your library in your room in your house somewhere for just an hour or I don't know maybe a day I don't know what your schedule is like but if you can create a situation or create an environment where you have no choice but to use that language and you cannot escape meaning you cannot go back to using your native language as a crutch you can't use the native language at all it forces you to use the language that you're studying so of course if you are lucky enough to live in the country or to live in a place where people speak the language you're studying great but you have to go out and interact with people you have to put yourself in a place where you have no choice but to speak it's very hard and it's very scary and it's very embarrassing at first but if you take time to find places and to make environments that are comfortable for you where you feel comfortable making mistakes and asking questions it's very valuable for your learning process this is actually something that I did totally I totally did this my Japanese wasn't very good for a long time but then I started making friends who could not speak English actually I just did this through finding high these there was a hobby that I had I joined a group I joined actually a school to where I could learn how to do that hobby and everything was taught only in Japanese and the people in my class only spoke Japanese mostly and then maybe we would go out for drinks and food late at night or on the weekends and everybody spoke only Japanese and if I couldn't communicate even simply in Japanese I had no hope of keeping that friendship together so it forced me to study it forced me to think about the words they were using and to try to learn those words those patterns as well as how to produce them naturally myself so I was learning the vocabulary words the people around me were using and learning how to apply them on my own that was only possible because I had no escape in those situations so try to do that even if you can do it yourself in your house it's super helpful I think watch TV and movies in your target language without subtitles tip number four is to watch TV and movies in your target language without subtitles without subtitles so I think that watching with subtitles can be very beneficial so if I'm watching something or if you want to watch something with subtitles on great but I sometimes find that I can in my case I think too much about reading the subtitles and I forget to listen so maybe if you've seen a movie in your target language a few times with the subtitles on try turning the subtitles off and think about the like character's body language the words they're using you can always look that up later look up the you know the words you don't know in a dictionary but try to do it where you're focusing completely on the way that people are using their words try not to use the subtitles so kind of play around with it a little bit if there's a word that's difficult for you to hear you can actually turn on the subtitles in like the in the native language of the movie as well that's something that I've done like if like if I wanted to study Japanese it's very useful when the actual words Okin in Japanese appear on the screen sometimes it's easier for me to catch a word if I see it visually and I hear it at the same time so another way to kind of explore how you can use TV and movies is to actually turn on the closed captions like the the words on the screen in the native language of the movie so so this is sort of two points in one so one watch movies without subtitles meaning subtitles in your native language and hint to is to watch movies with closed captioning on but the closed captioning is in your target language not in your native language so you can try those two things with TV and with movies don't bring a dictionary to your lesson tip number five is don't bring a dictionary to your lesson okay so it gives me a second here so I understand the dictionaries it was especially electronic dictionaries we have them on our phones now are very very convenient of course it's important to use them and it's a they're a great resource to have however one thing that really bothers me and that I think is detrimental it's not helpful for students is when students are in a lesson and they're practicing conversation and they reach a point in the conversation where they don't know the word they want to use they know it in their native language and they don't know how to say it in their target language they pull out their dictionary they say to this the person listening to them their practice partner in their lesson where they have a limited period of time just a moment and then they look it up on the phone it takes a few seconds the flow of the conversation stops and then they say a word it's like whoa no that's not you don't have that ability you don't have the ability to do that in a conversation with a native speaker most people like if you go to a bank and try to open a bank account are you really going to pull out your dictionary and sit there and try to communicate you know just a moment just a moment as you look up each word you don't know no or if you do that's not a real conversation so instead try using a different strategy by that I mean if you find a word you don't know in conversation explain the word to your conversation partner maybe they know the word if you're speaking with a native speaker this is a chance for them to teach you a word I find that when people take the time to teach me a word I remember the word much better than just looking it up on my dictionary so try to resist maybe you can bring a dictionary to your lesson but don't use it or try not to use it in your conversation practice it's just it destroys the flow of a conversation so instead practice the skill of describing the vocabulary word you want to use and learn how to ask the meaning of a word or learn how to ask for a vocabulary word from your partner so you can use an expression like ah what's the word that means pop habla or you know it's this thing that does this and this and this so this is an opportunity for you to describe characteristics of something or find a different way you can use your body language you can use whatever you have a lot of tools but try not to use a dictionary in a conversation because it's not realistic train responses to common questions number six is a quick one I think number six hint number six I have is just to Train responses to common questions train responses to common questions so for example a very common question in English is hey how are you you should know how to answer this question just have a default response hey how are you I'm good if it takes you a long time to answer the question hey how are you you need to practice I think that's a pretty good a pretty good indicator so for example sometimes I ask students a question like that they haven't quite gotten the idea of how to respond just yet they're not so quick at responding I say hey how are you and they say yes and then they think and they go I am I'm a good and it's like that's a very common question so think about the default response that you can spit out that you can quickly say if it's how was your weekend or hey what's up or what do you want to do for dinner tonight think about like just a handful meaning just a few responses to those questions and train them quickly just how are you I'm good how are you I'm okay how are you not bad there's three so it's just training responses to those questions there's no reason to be surprised by a question like how are you like that's a very common question so for those common questions trained responses to that we've got a bunch of videos especially beginner level videos for some example responses you can do so don't get stuck with these little questions just train a few responses practice a few responses till they feel natural to you it'll save you time and it'll help the person asking the question to to move forward in the conversation okay study with materials that don't provide a translation the next tip is to study with materials that don't provide a translation so by this I mean if you're using worksheets or some kind of textbook or whatever and it has your target language the language you're studying and it has your native language next to it while this can be useful I feel that if you can studying your materials only in your target language and then simplified explanations for more detailed points also in your target language can be a little bit better so I don't want to say like you should only study things in your target language and nothing from your native language because of course like it can be helpful sometimes to look up a word or to understand a grammar point in your native language but where possible if you can find something that provides simplified explanations in your target language it can be really really helpful because again you're thinking you're learning to think on like a simpler on a more basic level about the language you're studying in the language that you're studying so this can be really really good so finding some materials to use where there's no translation maybe you can practice of course with with books and with written materials but also with like video materials as well so there are a variety of different ways that you can find materials in your target language like in video and TV so some things to think about there are the level of vocabulary words people are using in the media content you're watching who the media content is intended for children young adults adults the speed at which the speaker is talking so like I have the ability to change the level of difficulty of videos based on the rate of speech the vocabulary words that I use and how many like idioms and things I use so I could make a video very difficult we could make a very like a very difficult video series by levelling up our vocabulary use or by speaking very quickly or as you might see in like our English in three minutes series we can also use very simple vocabulary and speak at a low rate of speech so maybe right now this is a very intermediate level video so please think about that so not just for written materials but also for your audio and visual materials think about who your audience is the level of the material and so on it can be really fun and it can be helpful to think about your your target language in your target language all right we're all Muslim study phrases in addition to single vocabulary the next tip is study phrases in addition to single vocabulary words so yes of course vocabulary is important but I find it personally very very useful to look at how a vocabulary word is used in a phrase because sometimes using it in a phrase helps you understand the nuance of that vocabulary word really really well so if I like a word like crazy for example in English depending on the situation where the word crazy is used it could mean something different it could mean like a person who is mentally confused or mixed up it could also mean something really good it could mean something really bad so if we look only at the word crazy it's quite difficult to understand really the meaning of the word but if you look at the way the word is used in a phrase you can get a lot more information so take a look at the way people use words in phrases not just a single vocabulary words you can learn a lot more that way I think do your daily activities in English where possible the next step is to do your daily activities in your target language so if you're studying English that means try to do some daily activities in English if possible so this can be very very boring stuff but just think about it when you're doing the activity so like right now I'm filming a video for English class 101.com or I'm going to work I'm cooking breakfast I'm doing the laundry what do I have to do tomorrow so try thinking about your everyday life in English if you're studying English try thinking about your everyday activities the people that you meet what are you doing so this is a way to help you practice your verbs so if you don't know if you're I don't know you're doing something at work and you're like oh my gosh how do I explain the what's the verb for you know a picture like I want to blah blah blah a picture what's the word you can check a dictionary at that point it's draw like I need to use the verb draw or draw a picture so you can find these little gaps in your everyday life these little gaps in your knowledge if you think about your everyday activities in your target language if you don't think about it in your target language you might not realize you have vocabulary gaps or phrase gaps here and there so this is a really good and kind of funny actually way to study use a learner's dictionary for new words the last tip is to use a learner's dictionary for new words so in English there are learners dictionaries available in English so my favorite my personal favorite is merriam-webster merriam-webster is a fantastic dictionary resource they're so interesting and they have tons of like historical information I really do just sit and like readings on the dictionary page lately it's true but of course there's a definition there's a meaning for words there are example sentences for words but merriam-webster also has what's called a learner's dictionary if you find a word that you don't recognize you can check it in a dictionary in a learner's dictionary and it gives you a simplified a simple explanation in simple English of that word so instead of checking it in your native language you can check it in your target language so again this helps you to understand the word that you are that you're focused on but you understand it from the language you're studying not from your native language so using a learner's dictionary can be really really useful as well yeah all right want to get cheat sheets audio books lessons apps and much more every month for free just click the link in the description to get your free language gifts of the month 10 ways to report speech let's go say the first word is say say as a verb say is a very neutral word you can use to report someone's speech to explain something someone said in the past so for example he said the barbecue was canceled just a simple neutral report tell the next verb is tell tell is used when one person is giving information to another to tell someone something they did not know before don't say tell me your phone number that's weird but like can you tell me where the station is can you tell me where to buy a hamburger can you tell me where to pick up my new car like so giving someone information they don't know or or on the other hand explaining something one way to another person so don't tell me what I can't do is a very good lost reference if you've ever watched lost so tell another example sentence my boss told me I was doing a good job speak the next one is speak speak so we use speak when we're talking about language ability like I speak English I speak Japanese we can use speak in the past tense to report something but it usually sounds a little more formal so like I spoke to my boss about or I spoke to my parents about or I spoke to my boyfriend or girlfriend about bla bla bla that using speak instead of talked makes it sound a little bit more formal so you can use speak but it's going to sound polite in a sentence my colleagues spoke with me about an upcoming project was like ok the next one the next two actually are very very casual expressions so when you're speaking with friends and you're kind of talking about a quick maybe somewhat emotional conversation you will hear native speakers especially Americans perhaps this is unique somewhat to Americans use the phrase was like I was like he was like she was like this is a very casual way to report speech and you'll hear an often very very quickly together so someone will say I was like what and then she was like no and then I was like yeah that's the kind of pattern you'll hear it in very very quick ways to report speech but the subject changes I was like he was like she was like we were like this is a way to share what happens quickly instead of I said he said she said which might sound a little too formal we can use I was like he was like to do that instead so this is a really fun one and if you can use this naturally I think that it'll really help you sound more natural too so in a sentence and then he was like I love that movie was all the next one is also a similar to was like we have the expression was all so it was all don't worry about all all does not have the meaning of the whole of something or a complete something instead was all this set phrase is used to report speech usually this one is used when there's some kind of emotional emotional aspect to your conversation or it's a little dramatic or maybe a little exciting we use it the same way as was like in that very very quick style of speaking and then he was like and I was all and then she was like and I was all we used those together but I was all has a little more emphasis I feel I tend to use it when my when I want to express a stronger emotion and I was all no way or and I was all what so you can use it for those very like surprised emotions or maybe angry emotions was like and was all are both used in very casual situations so in a sentence and I was all oh my god me to talk the next word is talk so talk similar to say is a fairly neutral verb when reporting speech you'll use it in a situation where someone is giving new information to you but maybe it's a two-way conversation so for example we talked about blah blah blah for a topic or my boss talked to me about blah blah blah so maybe new information is being exchanged but the conversation is two-way there are multiple participants with tell it's like the nuances sort of one person is reporting information giving information with talked it's there's an exchange happening there so keep in mind when you use the word talk you will say either I talked to or I talked with someone and then you'll usually have a topic so I talked to my friend about blah blah blah I talked to my friend about my new apartment I talked to my boss about a raise I talked to my boss know I talked to my dog about what dogs knew so there's some kind of there's some kind of exchange happening there you'll need to use to or with when you're referring to the person or entity you're talking to and you'll use about to refer to the subject so you can use this one yeah when you're when you want to discuss exchanges of information so in a sentence she talked to me about my family mention let's go to the next one the next one is mention mention is used when like something is just there's just one small point in a conversation like just a little side note or maybe it's not the focus of a conversation but just something someone says quickly or there's just a little thing that you hear oh you mentioned something about blah blah blah or you mentioned that a new project like it's it's maybe not the focus of the conversation but something that you heard a little bit about that's that's when we use the verb mention we can also use it in a statement like please mention any skills you have on a resume so it's the nuance is sort of like a like just a little bit of information is when we use mention so in a sentence our manager mentioned upcoming changes at the company to go on and on okay the next expression is to go on and on so to go on and on means just to talk for a very long time so maybe you have a co-worker or a friend or family member that just talks and does not stop talking we say to go on and on that's the expression we use so in a sentence the speaker at the seminar was going on and on about the topic if you really want to emphasize it you can say what's going on and on and on and on and on that really emphasizes that the person continues to speak so if you know somebody who does that a lot you can use this expression to talk about them according to the next expression here is according to according to is used actually in the news or like to officially report something so according to sources or according to the police according to the government official according to my teacher according to my mother these are like direct reports of information and their direct reports of in Meishan from a specific source so according to the newspaper my neighborhood has 50,000 amazing ramen shops that's not true but if I want to instead of just saying my neighborhood has 50,000 amazing ramen shops I'm giving a source for that so according to my newspaper this is this is where I got the information so this is important to use in news and newspapers and any kind of official documentation you will see and here according to in these cases in a sentence according to a witness at the scene the suspect escaped report great so the next one is report so reports similar to according to we use report in more official situations so to officially share information like to report to the police to report to your teacher to report to your boss sometimes it means to submit documentation like to give someone a written report sometimes it's to share information officially just just with your voice to report news or to report an update so when you want to give and give official information we'll use the verb report so in a sentence sources in the area report that the accident was not serious thank goodness all right the top 10 must know phrases for the restaurant let's get started a table for three please a table for three please you tell them the number of people that you are total so that the host can bring you to an appropriate table a table for two please a table for five please could I please see a menu could I please see a menu usually menus are given to you as soon as you sit down at your table but if that's not the case and you need to ask this is a polite way to do it did I please see a menu I'd like to try this dish I'd like to try this dish when looking at a menu hopefully you'll find something you want to eat I'd like to try this dish could you leave out the onions could you leave out the onions if there's an ingredient in the dish that you're ordering that you don't want you can always ask the waiter if it could be prepared without that ingredient so for example I might say can I get the burger but with no cheese could you pass the salt could you pass the salt when you're at a restaurant especially if you're at a big table with a lot of people you might not always be able to reach things so you would ask could you pass me the salt could you pass me the ketchup could you pass me another napkin waiter waiter a waiter is someone who takes your order and brings you food in America and in many other Western countries it's more polite to call a waiter to your table by simply saying excuse me or if you see another waiter walking by but it's not your waiter you can always say excuse me if you see our waiter could you please let them know to come to our table is there any dairy in this dish is there any dairy in this dish this is something you would say if you have a dairy allergy a dairy intolerance or you just don't like dairy you're asking the waiter about the ingredients in a particular dish I do this all the time is there any cheese in this No okay and if there is an ingredient that you don't want for example onions you could say are there any onions in this and the waiter might say yes and if you don't want it you could always request could you leave out the onions could you prepare it without the onions please can we get separate checks can we get separate checks this is actually something that's very common especially in America if you might go out with a group of friends or even if you're on a date sometimes you might want to get separate checks pay for your own things that way you can all pay separately just for what you yourself ordered and you won't have to worry about owing each other money or calculating off a big huge bill are there any specials today are there any specials today a special at a restaurant is a dish that isn't usually on the menu it's something that's special but it's a special that the show is offering that day or that week or that month so sometimes if you don't see what the specials are you'd ask your waiter excuse me are there any specials today could we have the bill please could we have the bill please this is how you request that the cheque or the bill comes to your table could we get the check please could we get the bill please you're asking this to your waiter who will then bring you the cheque and you can pay 10 words that you can use at a bar let's go to buy a round the first expression is to buy a round to buy a round means to buy a round of drinks essentially a round of drinks means one drink for everyone in your group one drink for everyone in your party by the way the word party is used to mean group at a bar or restaurant the number of people in your party is the number of people in your group so to buy a round means to buy a drink for everybody in a sentence our boss began the party by buying everyone around in a different sentence you're buying the next round on the rocks the next expression is on the rocks on the rocks is a way to order a drink when you say on the rocks it means your drink on ice only so rocks are the ice in your glass so you can imagine the ice the pieces of ice in your glass the ice cubes or an ice ball these are like rocks so saying I'd like whiskey for example on the rocks means just whisky served over ice that's what on the rocks mean so in a sentence I'd like a gin on the rocks straight up the next expression is straight up so a straight up drink is different from an on the rocks drink a straight up drink is chilled with ice but it's strained so there's no ice in the drink but it is it has been chilled with ice so a straight up drink and there's nothing else in the glass but it is a chilled drink in a sentence I'd like a martini straight up some people use the word straight or straight up but they mean neat which is the next word we're going to talk about so keep in mind straight or straight up means chilled that's one of the key points here so yeah a martini straight up is a chilled martini neat so the next expression is neat to order a drink neat means the drink is not chilled and there is no ice it's just it's just the the alcohol it's just the liquor there's nothing special about it a neat drink is only the drink that's it nothing happens to it so in a sentence I'd like a whiskey neat pint half pint the next expression is really two expressions these are words you use when you order beer they are pint and half pint depending on the country that you live in pint can be a different size they vary by a few milliliters depending on the country where you live in a half pint then is roughly half of the piped size so a half pint and a pint are two ways two sizes we use to order beer in a sentence can I have a half pint of this stout chaser the next expression is chaser so a chaser is something you use to follow an alcoholic drink chasers are often used after shots so shots are small drinks that are usually kind of strong and alcohol content and they have a very strong taste so some people like to have something after that and they call it a chaser so the image is that the the second drink is chasing the first drink into your body you can think of it that way the chaser is a non-alcoholic drink so it could be water it could be soda it could be something like that juice maybe mmm so chaser in a sentence shots of tequila are often followed with chasers to be tipsy the next word is to be tipsy to be tipsy is a way to describe your feeling when you're drinking so if you can imagine when you're when you're standing straight up when you're standing it's regular you're very like confident and tall and you don't move very much but if you feel tipsy this comes from the verb to tip like this so something tips to one side or another think of your body in this way so we use the word tipsy the adjective tipsy to describe this feeling maybe you're not so steady on your feet you could tip over at any time that's called being tipsy from alcohol okay so in a sentence let's see I'm a little tipsy I need some water to be drunk the next expression is to be drunk so we talked about the word tipsy so tipsy is a little bit like a little unsteady but drunk is just a mess just you're just a disaster you're being noisy you're being loud it's difficult to control your body or your friends body whatever so drunk is usually seen as a negative thing so yeah so drunk expresses yeah it's it's just not pretty sometimes so in a sentence your friend is drunk let's take him home to call it a night the next expression is to call it a night to call it a night means to decide to finish at the bar to go home you're ready to be done so here I'm going to call it I'm going to say this is tonight tonight is finished mmm so in a sentence it's been a long evening I'm gonna call it a night I mean I'm going to go home I'm done it's a casual expression hangover and then one more that you can use maybe the day after you visit a bar is hangover so a hangover is a noun hangover is the word we use to describe the feelings after drinking too much so maybe you feel sick to your stomach you have a headache your body is sore there are a number of different feelings you might have when you feel hung over to be hungover is another way to say it but when you have a hangover it usually doesn't feel very good in a sentence I have a hangover today I'm not going drinking tonight about the top 25 english phrases so let's get started the first phrase is hello hello of course is used as a

with blah blah blah usually what's up with person for gossip meaning there's like the nuance here is there some problem where it seems like something's wrong with this person they're unhappy they're sad they're angry some kind of negative emotion we use this so it's like what's up with Stevens I haven't heard from him lately what's up with your brother he seems really upset or what's up with your neighbor why is he so noisy or what's up with your boss he's so strict so it sounds like there's some problem we you surely use this intonation what's up with what's up with no to introduce somebody who has a problem we don't say what's up it's not that it's not that sort of hello um expression it's a it's an expression for a problem you can also use a noun phrase that is not a person here like

with the person involved in this sentence like you have some relationship maybe it's a family relationship romantic relationship professional relationship there's some relationship with this person and lately is like have you heard from them recently lately in the last few days in the last few weeks so you can use this if for example you are looking for someone or you're worried about someone you can use this here you can also use it just just to check in about some other person without asking that person directly so like if I want to ask about I'm using Risa in my example Risa is our Japanese Channel host if I want to ask about how Risa is but I don't want to ask Risa I know maybe she's busy or I don't know for some reason I difficult to talk to her I can ask like a co-worker I'm gonna say hey have you heard from recently at least it seems she's really busy or have you heard from so-and-so lately it seems they're busy so if I want to ask about another person but I don't want to bother this person or the something makes it difficult I can use have you heard from blah blah blah recently or lately to ask about them very useful phrase I have to tell you about next expression ah the next expression is I have to tell you about bah-bah-bah I have to tell you so have to becomes hafta I have to tell you about it has a nice hmmm-hmmm sound I have to tell you about Papa bah or I have to tell you about something so I have to tell you about my weekend I have to tell you about Stevens I have to tell you about my mom I had to tell you about my boyfriend I should tell you about my girlfriend whatever it is some person used at the end of this sentence creates a nuance like there's exciting news about that person or I have to tell you about this thing that happened you can use a situation at the end of the sentence - but you're using I have to at the beginning of this sentence so that sounds like it's really important like I feel it's so important it's my responsibility to tell you because this is so exciting of course you can use this in more boring situations as well like I have to tell you about the new office policy you can use it in that way with a very flat intonation but for gossip purposes use I have to tell you about bah-bah-bah that sounds really good so what do you have to tell somebody about I have to tell you about this new idea I have for a business or I have to tell you about what happened to me last night okay so there are these really exciting ways that we can introduce things that happened or that we can talk about people or whatever okay 10 words for talking about space planet the first word is planet planet so planets are those really really big things that we have in our solar system now there are officially eight because Pluto is no longer considered a planet in my example sentence Pluto used to be considered a planet star the next word is star star so stars are those very very bright objects that you can see in the sky sometimes at night that's the closest star to us is the Sun the Sun is a star and we can see a lot of other stars if we look up into the night sky sometimes in a sentence it's hard to see stars from big cities solar system the next expression is solar system solar system so solar system our case here on planet earth refers to the system of planets and objects which are near our star so our solar system now there are eight planets in our solar system used to be nine planets sorry again in Pluto eight planets in our solar system and then we can talk about other objects which maybe enter our solar system like like comets for example or a meteor or some other events might happen in space within our solar system so our solar system is the area surrounding our Sun and our planets that we know of in a sentence mercury is part of our solar system comet the next expression is comet a comet is actually an icy body that is slightly melting and then releasing gases so that's what produces that look a comet okay in a sentence comets are really cool meteor alright so yes the next word is meteor or meteor or just meteor so essentially meteors are different from comets because comets are made of ice meteors however are made of rock so these are two different kinds of objects that can that move around in space in a sentence lots of meteors burn up before they pass through the atmosphere meteorite the next word is meteor right meteor right so this is an important distinction that many people don't know about actually if this tries to be crazy too so a meteor is the is the space rockets in space or it's in the atmosphere a meteor right however is the rock if if the meteor makes it if the meteor can pass through the Earth's atmosphere and fall to the surface of the earth that rock then is called a meteor right so in space in the atmosphere it's a meteor when it falls to earth it is a meteorite that becomes a meteorite when it hits the earth so fun facts okay that's the difference between the two in a sentence have you ever seen a meteorite supernova supernova supernova so the explosion of a star is a huge event a supernova is the name of it so the star explodes and that's what we call it it's called a supernova a star explosion in a sentence supernovas must be incredible things black hole all right the next expression is black hole black hole black holes are the subject of a lot of study they have intense gravitational pull so meaning they have very strong gravity black holes will pull other objects into them it is said that like time stops in a black hole or in like if you get too close to a black hole if you get too close to the event horizon of a black hole you yourself will be pulled into that hole too it's pretty crazy so like the event horizon is the point at which there's no there's no turning back from like you can't you can't escape essentially the gravitational pull of a black hole once you're within the event horizon of that space it's like crazy all this kind of stuff is so interesting so in a sentence black holes are mysterious galaxies okay all right so the next word is galaxies galaxies before we talked about the expression solar system so solar system is kind of our region of space the region we're familiar with but the next step up so if you think of the solar system is kind of your neighborhood a little bit you could think of maybe the galaxy is like your city or your country maybe it's sort of the next step out so a galaxy is made up of lots and lots of stars maybe other planets other solar system many other solar systems in one galaxy so I think yeah we belong to the Milky Way galaxy I believe in a sentence our galaxy is made of lots of different stars and planets earth the next expression is earth earth earth is our planet Earth is the planet we live on earth is habitable meaning humans can live here this word I included it in this vocabulary list because it is a very good word to practice your pronunciation it is the word earth earth that are and the th sound can be difficult to pronounce together earth earth so this is a great word to use to practice your pronunciation earth so in a sentence our it is called earth 10 words for talking about sleep let's go to wake up the first word is to wake up to wake up is to open your eyes probably in your bed or the place where you are sleeping to wake up is to to become conscious to become awake every day you wake up presumably hopefully in a sentence I woke up three times last night to get up to get out of bed all right the next word is to get up or to get out of bed so that means to physically move your body from your bed out of bed to stand up from your bed to get out of your bed we say to get up or to get out of bed in a sentence I got up at 8 o'clock this morning to snooze the next word is to snooze so we have to snooze and alarm and also to snooze so to snooze means to take a short sleep to have a short sleeping time or to snooze and alarm is when your alarm goes off in the morning you have a button most alarm clocks have some button you can press so the alarm will turn on again in like you know 5 or 10 minutes or something so to snooze an alarm is to like to ask your alarm to wake you up again a few minutes later that's to snooze so we have to snooze an alarm and to snooze meaning like a short light sleep in a sentence I always snooze my alarm at least once that is usually true to oversleep the next word is to oversleep to oversleep means to sleep too much or to sleep late actually no it doesn't mean to sleep late to sleep late means just to sleep until a late time in the day oversleep means sleeping beyond the time you wanted to get up so for example if my alarm is set for 8 o'clock but I wake up at o'clock I overslept I slept beyond my wake-up time so we can use oversleep to talk about times when you sleep too much you sleep more than your body needs you to so maybe your body needs depending on the person like six to nine hours or so but if you sleep like 14 hours we can say that's over sleeping you're sleeping too much hmm that's the nuance here in a sentence I overslept on my first day of work nap the next word is nap nap is a short sleep so a nap is maybe 30 minutes one hour just a short sleep a short rest so a lot of people will take a nap in the afternoon for example or maybe children actually take naps for example in preschool or when they're very very young they have a an afternoon nap a short sleep like hmm yeah just a like an hour or so I imagine in a sentence I love naps actually I do like naps I don't like naps because when I take a nap it becomes asleep it's always like I wake up four hours later and I'm like okay well I've destroyed my sleep schedule dream the next word is dream dreams so dreams are those those visions those images you see those experiences it seems like you have when you are asleep in a sentence I always have weird dreams nightmare so the next word is nightmare nightmare is a word which means bad dream or scary dream negative dream so children maybe have nightmares a lot they wake up crying or they're really upset by nightmares monsters terrifying things happening and so on in a sentence do you ever have nightmares to go to bed the next word is to go to bed so before we talked about to get up or to get out of bed this is the opposite to go to bed means to get in your bed - to try to go to sleep to go to bed in a sentence I usually go to bed fairly late to hit the hay to hit the sack the next expression is kind of a I don't know a slang expression we have to hit the hay and to hit the sack these both mean to go to bed they both mean to try to fall asleep but we just use them in more casual situations the image here of hit the hay is with your body hitting hay like laying down in hay I believe historically because hay was used to stuff things that people slept on so that's why we have this expression to hit the hay with your body same thing for to hit the sack so a sack full of something soft to sleep on is where this expression comes from in a sentence I think I'm gonna hit the hay to fall asleep the next expression it is to fall asleep to fall asleep you're in bed and you finally you lose consciousness you you stop being aware you are asleep in that moment we say you fall asleep in a sentence it takes me a long time to fall asleep alright wanna speak real English from your first lesson sign up for your free lifetime account at English class 101 calm top ten must know prepositions and

mall I went to the park my mom asked me to go to the store to buy some bread - a destination to a person from from from is the opposite of - from implies where it's coming from the place of origin so

outside and I love being inside and is a way to add on a new subject or thing to what you're talking about so so I have a toothache so I went to the dentist so is a way of adding an example another way to say because of this I did this you say something and then you add so and then what follows is the effect so there's the cause so the effect so I was feeling very hungry so I had some pizza this video is going to be Pizza themed everyone apparently I was really tired so I took a nap I was in the mood for some adventure so I got on an airplane and flew to Mexico that sounds nice or-or-or is a way of presenting a choice so for example you can either have pizza or you can have candy I don't know if I should go to the movies or if I should go to the mall which color do you like better red or green it presents differences of choice today's video is on words Americans overuse I haven't seen these words yet but apparently it's going to be a series of words that we as Americans I'm American we overuse we use too often so let's start oh the first word is definitely definitely is definitely a word that Americans overuse we use it to put emphasis at the end of a phrase to put emphasis the end of a sentence as in oh that party last week was so great yeah definitely or to agree with somebody like that uh Oh God literally uh just in the last few days I've seen the word literally so many times on the internet and used in just such stupid ways the word literally means actually or truly something this is literally the best hamburger I've ever eaten so literally meaning truly or actually would mean that in that person's entire life that is the best hamburger they've ever eaten however it gets misused a lot in sentences like George Bush was literally supporting the war in Iraq or something like that taking a phrase like that literally would have to mean that you know the president former president would be you know physically supporting a war with his body onward onward hilarious hilarious is the next word I like to use the word hilarious when something is actually funny hilarious of course means something that is really funny super funny it to step above funny maybe two steps three steps I don't know however people like to use this word in place of laughter so for example friends are talking and instead of just laughing the friend will say that's hilarious but well if it's so hilarious just laugh oh this must be the last one because this is the worst one this word is like I've probably said it several times already today for the for the purposes of this video the word like is used as a filler word so it's the same as something such as um or uh or hmm for example we use like as a filler word when we're trying to think of something you it's not uncommon to hear the word repeated like three four or five times in a row when someone is thinking they'll say oh you know that party that I went to like like like like do you know who was there it just invades your speech sometimes when you're trying to think of something and no other filler words come out but the word like does ah this wasn't the last word there is another one seriously yeah seriously it's used oh it's it's good for any time you receive bad news well not from your boss it's a really casual word but if you hear something like your friend lost their job and you can sympathize with them or maybe empathize with them by saying seriously oh that's too bad or Oh tell me like all your problems oh my god oh just use like oh good well I hate myself generic trademarks oh oh these are all examples of brands that wear the name of the brand has become synonymous with whatever the brand product itself is this is gonna be fun Jacuzzi oh really a Jacuzzi is a brand I didn't know that see okay Jacuzzi is a hot tub essentially it's just it's a it's a type of hot tub but so many people have come to know that Jacuzzi equals hot tub that Jacuzzi now just means hot tub even though it's the name of the brand so you might say hey come over to my house this weekend we're all going to have a no you might say oh I just bought a new jacuzzi do you want to come in no that's creepy - mm-hmm I'm thinking about buying a jacuzzi do you have any recommendations hmm next chapstick you might use chapstick I use chapstick chapstick is just a brand of lip balm so whenever your lips feel dry or when they feel chapped you put chapstick on your lips in a sentence you might say I carry my chapstick with me everywhere I love it Kleenex Kleenex is another great example of a brand that now equals a product oh here's Kleenex is this Ashlee Kleenex no this is a school can you see it no this is actually this is not Kleenex but we'd probably refer to this as Kleenex yeah tissue these are just they're just tissues it's not even made by I made by Kleenex can you pass me a Kleenex next is post-its Oh post-its are very useful they're just a small notepad here's another one there's some notes written on it already this is a small one also not made by post-it but it's the same it's the same sort of thing it's just a piece of paper that has a sticky back and you can stick it to things but post-its now people will ask for a post-it instead of just a sticky back note paper well I guess I guess posted is an easier thing to say what else what you call it if not a post-it sticky paper our glue note I'm waiting for you entrepreneurs next is band-aids this was the first one that I thought of actually when I saw this topic band-aids when you get hurts when you get a paper cut it's that little piece of kind of tape II bandage that you peel stuff off of and then you stick on whenever you've just hurt but that thing is just called a bandage right it's a sticky bandage there are a lot of sticky things it's most of the time I think when you get a paper cut or something at work or at school or whatever they'll say oh my gosh do you need a band-aid his words that vary by region Creek I say Creek you might hear the word Creek Creek and the word Creek means a small river essentially there's a Creek in my backyard for example sure the next word is coyote I say coyote how do other people say this word kite coyote oh yeah coyote I don't say that coyote is kind of a doglike animal it's a wild animal about the size of a dog with a howl at night we had them in Oregon where I'm from I definitely heard them at my house last night I heard the Coyotes out in my pasture okay the next word is root ro ute root is how I say it you might also hear the word pronounced route root ro ute means the way through a city or a town or some kind of path in other words ro ot which this word sounds like is the system that's at the bottom of a plant that plant uses to get nutrients you know with the little hairy fibers I'm so good at explaining plant biology oh I know a good route to get from school to the park later let's take that on our bicycles that was oddly specific the next word is apricot or you might hear apricot as well it's a fruit so you might say hey did you bring any apricots to the picket ticket to the big apricots no I pick it on the other hand is a word that means protest there's a freebie in there for example you might say hey I really like those apricots you brought me the other day they were delicious okay the next ooh the next word is caramel I say I think I say caramel oh this is making me doubt myself there's caramel and there's caramel they both refer to sugary sweet substance that's often a type of candy or often inside a type of candy it's really really delicious so you might say oh my favorite kind of candy is caramel or my favorite kind of candy is caramel just depends on where you're from apparently in the East the East Coast they say caramel on the west coast it seems we say caramel that sounds about right to me hmm you can choose faces that aren't cool anymore whoo-hoo I probably say a whole lot of these phrases so I'm about to embarrass myself the first phrase is sweet Oh sweets not cool anymore sweet means cool sweet means something that's good you might say oh man that's skateboard trick you just did was sweet groovy I still say groovy groovy means cool guru means good it was used in the seventies when you know funky groovy music was popular in a sentence like oh hey those are some groovy moves on the kids I don't know we can use that going steady going steady is kind of an old-fashioned phrase as well going steady just means you're dating someone who is dating someone else like me and Tricia are going steady what just means you're dating you're a couple not oh this is this word is actually what the entire holiday of April Fool's Day is based around that's a lie particularly I would say for junior high school students this phrase is um very popular they might say something like hey Steve thinks you're cute not so in other words it's often used as an insult duh duh duh is used when someone says something really stupid or something really obvious so if you say something like oh hey it's raining the other person who can also maybe look out the window you're both sitting in front of might say duh because you've just indicated something very very obvious you also used to make fun of yourself when you do or say something really stupid as soon as you realize this you can go ah duh yeah intermediate latin phrases that's gonna be fun bonafide it sounds like an american thing like like oui oui bastardized that word of it bona fide then means something that's genuine or something that's truly representative of something else so if someone says he's a bona fide gentleman for example it means he's truly a gentleman I don't hear this word very often at least among people I spent time with perhaps you might hear it especially in an old movie I think vice versa vice versa means basically it just means to switch positions of something so you might say oh I could come to your house and then we could go no this is a terrible example I can go to your house or vice versa meaning you come to my house so saying vice versa it leaves the listener to fill in the opposite of whatever else you're saying yeah that's actually kind of a useful phrase that's still used quite a lot I hear a lot in kind of business English OMA mater alma mater alma mater alma mater just refers to the college that you graduated from so whatever it is whatever your university is you could be from you know Harvard University you would say Oh Harvard is my alma mater that's it carpe diem carpe diem carpe diem means seize the day so it's a kind of a motivating phrase you can say it maybe when you leave the house for work for example if you're feeling like you need an extra bit of motivation you might say yeah carpe diem to yourself status quo status quo refers to the norm or whatever is the regular in society for example right now let's see what's this what's a status quo politics that want a beer ain't anybody so maybe in one place the status quo might be to eat vegan maybe oh it's you know eating vegan is the status quo we're going to look at some common English idioms let's begin the first word or phrase rather is about - about - means you're going to start something you're going to begin doing something for example I'm about to start explaining this idiom to you hey hey okay the next word or phrase idiom the next idiom is by the way the word here they've used is incidentally it's a way to transition to another topic that's related to what you're talking about for example this week I'm going to a party by the way did you hear about the party happening next week so there's somewhat related mm-hmm okay the next idiom is in a way in a way this is kind of in a way it was a good thing that the burrito shop was closed because otherwise I would have eaten way too much and you can use this to show that there may be two sides to a situation maybe some things are negative maybe some things are positive next is on the other hand I hear this a lot on the other hand is a way of just saying however or to share two different sides to a story for example I think my coworker is really irritating on the other hand at parties he's really funny so you can show two maybe different sides to a point with this phrase next is a matter of fact as a matter of fact as an idiom this is a long way to just say actually or really it's a little bit more formal sounding so you might use it in a business meeting for example everybody at the business meeting might feel a little bit unsure about the previous month sales and you can begin your presentation by saying something like I know everybody was a little bit unsure about last week's or last month's sales performance but as a matter
