These are the 25 most used nouns in English. So let's get started. The first noun is the word name. Of course, it is. used in common questions like what is your name, my name is, etc., my favorite actor's name is harrison ford, something like that, the next word is time, time is of course used to express the time of day , as used in questions like what time is it. Can you tell me what time it is? I don't have time lately if you're too busy. Do you have any time? It's time for my favorite show House of Cards.

Kevin Spacey is great. The next noun is man. Please be careful. The man is one. of those words that have an irregular plural form when you

need

to use the plural of the word man you should say men don't say man it's very funny but don't say it who is that man or what's up man you can use man with men or women curiously the next word is woman woman also has an irregular plural form please say women when referring to more than one woman, not women or women although the singular and plural form of women and women are written the same at the beginning w-o-m the pronunciations are different women women like this Be careful when you say this pretty woman the next word is person person you can use it to generally refer to a man or a woman please be careful the plural form of person becomes people when I want to talk about another culture, for example, you can say such and such a country, the people or people of that country speak a language blah blah, the next word is thing, usually an inanimate object, something that just doesn't move like a water bottle or you. you know a sweater something you can wear when you don't know the word for something, so it's very, very useful, what is this?

I like a lot of things, for example, Where the Wild Things Are, there is a movie that has already been released that I love. I knew about the next word is mother mother is the person the woman who gave birth to you is not that exciting mother is commonly abbreviated to mama or mama or mami ma madre if you speak Spanish mama mamba if you are me mamacita the next word is day, for of course, day is used on all days of the week monday tuesday wednesday thursday sunday period of time in which the sun rises the day or the day you have a good day the next word is world world only refers to the entire planet earth well, II like to travel around the world or I like to try foods from all over the world in the world of science, this is an upcoming technology or in the world of literature, he is one of the most famous authors, so the worlds are can be used only to refer. just for um more specific type of hobby or a specific interest or just the life of a specific person war of the worlds father father is your dad um other other common words used for father are dad dad pop dad pa sash I use that one with my dad while mother is used to refer to a kind of upbringing, like you know the land or things that give life to others, father, at least in my mind there is something like that.image of someone who is a little stricter in your life next word is sister a sister is your sister you can also use sister for a female person you feel very close to so I could call my friend who am I?

I am very close to my sister. My brother likes to shorten it to sister. You can also listen to sister. If you are stupid. Sister. Whoopi Goldberg was in a famous movie called Sister Act. The next word is brother. The brother is a male brother. You can also use brother to refer to a close friend common variations of brother are brother brother bra rosie broski depending on the type of person you are, you can choose to use any number of those, like I might sarcastically tell my friend a cool story, brother, as if they were telling To me, a story that is not very exciting in Mario, for example, the name of the Mario games is actually Super Mario Brothers, but Brothers is abbreviated to B-r-o-s.

Super Mario Bros. Yeah, just be careful using bro because it sounds a little college age. Boy, that's the feeling of the word brother, oh brother, where are you? the next word is daughter daughter is a girl daughter you have a daughter I have a daughter I don't have a daughter taken es sun a male child is someone's child sun s-o-n is pronounced exactly the same as s-u-n sun what are you talking about son the next word is i e-y-e i your eye is the round thing you used to see with i is used in many English expressions and idioms such as in I've got my eye on you, which means I'm watching you or keep an eye out for something, which means please look for something or lend a lot of attention.

The next word is hand, body part, give me. a hand or can I give you a hand means please help me or can I help you give someone a hand head this thing on the top of your body your head we use head to refer to the top of things as in the head of a company the leader of a group the leader of the line then whoever is first in line whoever is first in the company is the leader if you have a head dance if you have a head then dance the next word is foot this is another word that has a strange plural form one foot two feet foot, interestingly, foot is used, of course, to refer to the part of your body, a foot is also a unit of measurement if you are from the United States or I think another country in the world uses this system, I'm sorry.

We don't agree with anything metric in America, but the foot is about 12 inches this long, so if head refers to the top of things, foot is used to refer to the bottom of things. things if you have written an article in Microsoft Word for For example, at the bottom of the page there will be a space called a footer, that is, the bottom where you can put little notes for your reader.

Thank you very much for watching this episode. and see you soon bye if you have a head do you like trees yes yes of course matt yes let's go to the beach now let's go to the beach hello everyone welcome back to the main words my name is alicia and today we are going to talk about 20 phrases of travel that you should know, so come on, do you have any recommendations? The first sentence is: Do you have any recommendations? This is great to use when you arrive at a restaurant where you don't know what the food is.

If you don't know anything about the local cuisine or just feel a little adventurous, you can ask the service staff. Do you have any recommendations? How much does it cost? How much does it cost? This is useful when you are out shopping or when you are in a restaurant and the price is not clearly marked or something is not clear to you, then you can ask how much it is, usually when pointing out something you would recommend, such as pointing to the menu or pointing out an item, how much does it cost? is this I would like this you can point to something and say I would like this if you want to say I would like one for example I don't know they are going to give you beer I would like one of these if however you are in a situation where you cannot point, you can say: I would like ten of the blah blah blah, I would like ten of the blue t-shirts, please can I try this on?

It's useful when shopping for clothes so you can find something you'd like to try just ask the staff can I try this on? You can just say I want to try this on if you want, do you speak English? You might be asked this phrase so you should say if you're watching this video you should probably say yes or you can say yes a little bit if you're not feeling very confident if you're watching this video and you understand this part and you say no , so there are things that are a little strange. I have a reservation normally the staff will greet you and you can say I have a reservation hello I have a reservation it's at seven o'clock the name is Alicia we normally say the name is or it's below which means the reservation is in my name or um it's by name or is it in the name water please, depending on what country you are from, water may or may not be automatically brought to your table when you are in a restaurant if you would like more water, however you can say water please, to prepare it. a little more polite I would like to greet the waiters and say: could you give me a little more water?

Do you accept credit cards? Do you accept credit cards in case you are not sure if the store you are in accepts credit cards? or debit cards you can ask them if you accept credit cards so it doesn't mean you accept my card but this means you accept credit cards this is not what I ordered so if in a restaurant you order steak and instead They give you lobster, you can look at it and say, oh, this is not what I ordered. Be careful though say this politely if you look at the waiters and say this is not what I ordered.

It'll be like I don't know, he'll just be a good customer. Excuse me, but I don't think this is what I ordered or this is not what I ordered. Can you check if for some reason we have the menu? You don't receive a menu when you get to the table. You can say hello to a member of staff again and say, could we have the menu? Could you give me a discount? Could you give me a discount? It means I would like a cheaper price. The price essentially depends on the country you are in. Haggling or haggling means talking to the seller to try to reduce the price.

My family didn't bargain. We don't haggle, so I don't haggle. It depends on you and your culture. but yes, keep in mind the culture you are in and the place you are in before asking this question. Do you have any vegetarian dishes? Ah, this is useful. Some people have specific dietary needs, perhaps food allergies. For example, you can replace vegetarian with the specific dietary requirement you have. Do you have any vegan dishes? Do you have any gluten-free dishes? Do you have any low-fat dishes? Do you have any low carb dishes? Do you have any dishes without fish?

You have someone? Could you take a photo of me? Please if you are in a place where you would like to take a photo but you don't want to take a selfie or you don't have a selfie stick or whatever you want someone else to do. take a photo of yourself a stranger you don't know you can ask him could you please take a photo of me or excuse me? Would you mind taking a photo of me please? I'm allergic to blah blah blah if you have a food. allergy or even allergy to a medicine this is the phrase you can use to explain that I am allergic to wheat or that I cannot eat wheat, for example, the meaning of wifi is free.

Can I use the wifi for free? Please note that some places have a password that you must ask the staff to be able to tell if the wifi is free. If they say yes, you can continue with Can I have the password I would like to have? -Smoking seating please, so when you go to a restaurant you will have the option to choose between smoking and non-smoking sections. The staff will tell you if you are a smoker or non-smoker. You can say: I would like to have a non-smoking seat. Please, sincerely. The most natural response is to simply say don't smoke.

Could you get me a map? Maybe it's a map of the subway system of the city you're in, or maybe it's a map of the area around your hotel. Can you tell me. Could you give me a map? I could also give me the bill. You're done at your cafeteria. You're done at the restaurant and it's time to leave. It's time to pay. So you say to the waiter, excuse me. Could I have the bill? Another more common expression perhaps is Excuse me, please check, you might also hear Bill. Excuse me, can I have the invoice?

Where is the restroom? A very important question if you are traveling to the United States, we actually don't use the word bathroom or bathroom much, we use bathroom or bathroom to talk. about the sanitary facilities excuse me can you tell me where the bathroom is or excuse me I'm looking for the bathroom or I'm looking for the bathroom is this the train for blah blah blah or is this the train that goes to blah blah blah? To confirm with someone that I'm on the correct train line, if I say this is the train bound for San Francisco, you can use that to check if you're correct, so that's the end of it.

ed the numbers, okay friend, I want to speak real English from your first lesson, register for your free account for life in englishclass101. com hello everyone my name is alicia and today we are going to talk about the 25 best phrases in english, so let's get started.

The first phrase is hello, hello, of course, it is used as a greeting. You can say hello to your friends. You can greet your colleagues. Work with your family with this phrase by just saying hello, hello, what's up, hello, sup, almost at any time of the day, you can use hello, hello, the next phrase is good morning, good morning, it is used as a greeting in the morning, you can feel when the morning ends for you good morning it's kind and polite or even just tomorrow with your close friends or close coworkers the next phrase is good night good night it's okay we don't use this to greet other peoplewe use it when we are saying goodbye to other people at night family members particularly mothers and fathers to say good night to their children before they put them to bed they can tell their friend in a text message or in an email if they have been talking for a while good night, so the next word to speak is goodbye, use it when you say goodbye to your friends, when you leave your friends, goodbye, of course, take care, have a good day, peace, that's another way to say goodbye, okay, the next sentence is me.

I am more your name, of course, this is a way to introduce yourself, you can use I am, in my case, Alicia, I am Alicia, to introduce yourself in any situation. New friend. I'm Alice. Okay, the next sentence is What is your name? name is used to ask another person what their name is, so what's your name sounds a bit loud. I tried using what's your name. If you forget someone's name, you can say I'm sorry, what's your name or I'm sorry, what's your name again, next sentence, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you every time you meet someone new Nice to meet you Okay Nice to meet you It's a little more informal Nice to meet you Sounds very excited Nice to meet you Sounds like maybe a formal situation or a business context Okay, next sentence how are you?

How are you? is just a friendly way to communicate with the other person, you can use it with friends, your family, your coworkers, maybe even your boss to some extent, how are you?, how are you?, the The next sentence is, I'm fine, thank you and you uh if you saw English in three minutes we talked a lot about this phrase uh instead of I'm fine thank you and you say I'm fine thank you how are you just shorten it make it a little more natural how are you fine How are you great ? How are you not so good?

How are you, good? And so on, when someone says How are you? I usually say I'm fine this week, blah blah blah, give information about what you've been up to maybe. a hobby something you did recently an event something interesting you saw whatever people want to make that connection with you and it's a good opportunity for you to continue talking the next word is please, please is a polite phrase used when you want something from someone else You can use this as a response when someone offers you something like in a restaurant, for example, would you like more water?

Would you like something to drink? Oh please, the next phrase is thank you, thank you, it is used to express your gratitude, you can use thank you. with everyone, the next sentence is you're welcome, you're welcome, when someone says thank you, you can say you're welcome, ah, it's no problem, I use no problem, since it's no problem, it's short for no big problem, the next one word is yes, yes of course, yes means is any positive expression, someone asks you a question and the answer is a positive answer, you say yes, yes, huh, yes, no, then I guess I know, yes, The next word is no, no, it is a negative response to something. when you have to give a negative answer, as you can probably guess, the long form of no is negative, I like to use no, it's very, very casual, it won't happen, my parents would use that on me to soften it a little if you want. to show a negative response to something like let's have dinner tonight what do you want to do?

Do you want to hang out? uh, not really, no, I don't think so, to soften it, the next word is okay, okay, this word comes from copy The editors were okay when they had to review a manuscript, um, they had to label the manuscript as all clear, but since they were proofreaders and have a very, very sick sense of humor, they thought they would mark it well so that everything was clear to make a joke because o and k don't start with everything and of course, but it caught on with everyone in the world anyway, okay, it's used to agree with someone else, well actually it can be used to express something positive or slightly negative.

I sense a transition in your conversation. I can say okay, now let's talk about blah, blah, blah, okay, the next phrase is excuse me, excuse me, it is used to get someone's attention in English when you don't know the other person, for example, in a store, a supermarket, maybe a stranger. on the street you need to ask directions you can use excuse me you can use excuse me in the supermarket excuse me can you tell me where the hot sauce is if you've done something rude in public you can use excuse me personally not? do rude things in public ever sorry is the next word we are going to talk about sorry is used to apologize when you have made a mistake or someone you know has made a mistake and you are connected to them or you just feel bad, you can wear it, I'm sorry, you made a mistake at work, I'm sorry, you forgot to feed your cat, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you bumped into someone next to you, oh, I'm sorry, what time is next? phrase when you need to check what time it is what time it is when you ask someone else what time it is you might say this to yourself also check your watch check your phone check a watch pretty simple phrase there aren't really any short versions so it's easy where is that plus a location so you can use this for a building or a store, we're not going to use this for a place, a city name or a state name or a country name to do that you would need to delete but where is the bank?

Where is the post office? You can use this to ask for directions and ask for help at home or at work where is the copier? where is the file i need? It's blah blah blah, where's the bathroom? Perhaps it is a very important question that we should know. The next one is: can I use the bathroom? Can I use the bathroom? as a polite and gentle expression that you can use if you need to use the bathroom you need. Using the bathroom when you are in someone's house for the first time When you are in a new place for you you can ask Can I use the bathroom more casually?

Can I go to the bathroom to be? very polite you can say: Can I go to the bathroom? The next sentence is: I would like to ask for something. You can probably use this in a restaurant or any situation where you need to place an order. I would like a pizza. I would like to. a beer, can I get the bill please? This will be used in a restaurant when you have finished your meal and it is time to leave. Can I get the account please? In a very, very informal situation, you can simply say tell, please, okay, the next sentence. is see you soon see you soon used with friends and family maybe uh when you hope to see them again shortly after saying goodbye to them this is used at the end of the conversation you go in separate directions see you soon see you is also good or just see you for make it a little more formal you can say I'll see you again soon make a complete sentence like that the following phrases see you later see you later is very similar to see you soon but the The point is with cu later is that you will probably meet that person again later that same day.

Thank you very much for watching and we will see you again. soon bye the coffee is on me hello everyone my name is alicia and today we are going to talk about the top 25 adjectives in english so these are the top 25 adjectives in english in terms of how often they are used so let's get right into okay, the first adjective is the word good, well, it can be used to refer to anything that you think is good, excellent or positive comparatively, it's better superlatively, it's better, so I think pizza is good I think sleep is good I really think sleep is good baseball is good playing sports is good video games are good the next word is new comparative form newest comes in superlative form newest I have a new haircut do you want? a new bike I need to get a new job not true sorry no there is only one example so the next one is the first one it only refers to the number one of something yes the original of something you could say , the first silent movie or the first movie I saw or the first CD I bought.

The first thing I bought was Michael Jackson's bad next word: last, the end of something that we use last to refer to the most recent of something, like the last time I went to the beach or the last time I went to the forest. or the last time I saw my friend, did you ever eat the last piece of pizza when you shouldn't what was the last word we talked about was the first the next word is long, long, whatever you feel is long ? subway sandwiches are long sorry sorry I'm not supposed to laugh for too long the next word is cool cool can be used to express any positive emotion someone gives you new information and you think it's good but you want to express that it's even better How good you can say it's great, greater is the comparative form, greater is the superlative form, the greatest invention of all time was the light bulb, for example, what do you think is your greatest achievement? one of the greatest pleasures in life is finding people to be good friends with it's great the next word is small this is a very common word used in an expression like when I was little referring to when you were a child so when I was little I really liked to play outside or when I was little I really liked Pokémon I have said very little about the word small the next word is close close closer closer you probably know the location of the supermarket closest to your house maybe the post office more nearby I live near a very fashionable store The next word is big, large, it is used for anything that is large in size or conceptually, so, for example, you can say that an elephant is a large animal or, in terms of concept, you can say "let's see that fashion is really big right now" or "that artist." It's really big right now and that refers to popularity, big movies are exciting to watch with friends, do you have bigger sandwiches?

I am very hungry. The next word is another, another, it simply refers to something else, something different from what is currently happening. another person my other friend is a dj my other friend is a cook my other friend is a dancer my other friend I have very interesting friends what other things have you done with your life the next word is old old can be used to refer to people, can be used to refer to animals and art, anything that has a long history, so maybe I like old movies or I don't like old art or I think my grandfather is very, very old, this is getting old, the next word it's correct. can be used to refer to the right direction as in the opposite of left or it can be used to refer to something that is correct, so in a sentence like you are right it means you are right, that is the correct answer, it can also be It used to mean correct like turn right, but you'll have to listen to the context to decide what the true meaning is.

This is not okay could mean something that is not fair or that you do not agree with. This is not OK. The word is high high refers to something that is very high, very high somewhere, so many people might say that I am afraid of tall buildings or I am afraid of high places, also in the comparative form it can simply refer to to something higher or taller. what else meaning higher the loudest chirp level is loud I like the volume high uh music the next word is different is not the same as something else is different I think having a lot of different friends is a lot of fun do you like listening to different types ? of music the next word is small, small, smaller, smaller, small and small are extremely similar.

I would use them in pretty much the same way, however we don't say when I was a little boy, we say when I was a little boy or you could say when I was little, the next word is big, big and big are very similar, although I will say big is used in clothing sizes, large is not when we talk about large, we talk about how large can be used to refer to something that is very popular large is not used to refer to something that is popular large is used for sizing, I feel that only a house can be big, but it is used to refer to the physical size of something uh big and in charge, big, bigger, bigger, this is the biggest the bottom is in the zoo I have to go the next word is easy easy the next word easy easier easier this is good and you can use it at any time something seems very simple to you, for example, this test is easyIt can be simple, I'm 25 or I'm just 25, or it can be a little more detailed, if you just had a birthday, you can say I just had a birthday. you turned 25 or if you are about to have a birthday you can say I will turn 25 this month or I will turn 25 in July.

It's more natural here not to give your exact birthday as July 9, but just the month, so again. To return this question to the asker and find out his age, all you have to do is use that other magic phrase we introduced in previous lessons. And you? It's okay to not worry about being polite since the other person asked your age. ask first now it's time for alicia's advice we mentioned that asking someone's age may not be polite but if you decide to ask this question here's another tip some people like to respond with another question how old do you think I am?

Be careful if you say an age that is older than the person's real age, they may be very offended, so it is always safer to say a smaller number than you really think, so if you think the person looks 40 years old , say 35 and look how happy he looks. See you next time. speak real english from your first lesson sign up for your free lifetime account at englishclass101.com hello everyone welcome back to english topics my name is alicia and i'm joined by davey hi davey, so today our topic is going to be how to start a conversation in English, so we both have tried to prepare some tips that could help you while you are trying to start conversations in your English language studies, so let's start, I'm going to start again first, okay, okay, first we will give you tips on how to start a conversation I'll start today my first very important tip trying to follow myself right now don't be shy very important tip uh this is not so much a tip for

learn

ing a language well, it doesn't seem like a language learning tip, but I think it really is It's because any time you communicate in a second language or a foreign language it can be very stressful, it can make you very nervous and very anxious to try to do it, especially if you are talking to someone for the first time. first time, so the first thing is to remind yourself that it's not a big deal and not to be shy and be confident and if you can maintain that attitude when you start talking to someone, I think it will be a lot easier. okay I agree or even like you say even if you're shy just pretend you're not shy that's good advice you know it's even if you can pretend just for a few minutes just to start the conversation or continue a conversation a little bit it can be good even If you feel shy, I agree and you may find many times people who would say they are shy when talking to someone in another language, they may have a different personality, it is an opportunity to have a different personality. personality in a different language, so if you tell yourself that too when you speak English, when you speak another language, you are more confident than when you speak your own language, yes, that's true, I've heard it before, in fact, there are people who say I feel like they are more outgoing when they speak English, if that's the case maybe that's good for you too, in general, another point about maybe not just starting conversations but continuing them.

We are comfortable with English speakers interrupting at some point like you. We shouldn't always interrupt each other, they're pretty comfortable with that, look, he just did it, so we're, we're pretty comfortable with that, so you don't need to wait for an invitation to speak in a conversation. you can just join or maybe agree with the person who's talking or disagree with the person who's talking as a way of joining a conversation that's already in progress yeah good that's good okay I'll share a advice, mine are a little i I don't know, they depend a lot on who you're talking to, maybe what your relationship is, so let's say in this case you're in a place where, for example, I don't know a restaurant or a bar or something like that and you don't know the person you'd like to talk to, but maybe I don't know that there's someone attractive you'd like to talk to or maybe you want to talk to the waiter or something, so maybe it's okay, maybe maybe this is better.

If you're trying to talk to a fellow customer then it's something small, make a simple comment about something going on around you, so this should be one, a simple comment, two, something the other person can see clearly and three , something. which you can easily agree on, so, for example, if someone just walked by the restaurant wearing a hat like crazy, I don't know, you could say, "Oh, did you see that guy, something like that?" something that is easy to agree on to start the conversation or maybe I don't know that there is a television in the bar like, did you see that play or something that maybe you can identify and that maybe you shared with the other person during the time who were together in that space, so this?

It should be a very simple comment. Don't make a strange comment here. Make it very, very relaxed. Create a relaxed environment in which the other person feels that they can easily participate. It's very good advice. I don't know, I'm trying to do it. Think about maybe one time I used this or maybe I wanted to make a comment like and there was another person that was there and we had a moment where we agreed on something right, but then the conversation didn't really continue, yeah. It's a good way to test and see if that other person wants to talk to you too.

Yes, that's a good point and makes me think this is not one of my tips. This is an ex. Free advice you're getting. Free advice now is that I think there is advice everywhere for you to be patient, wait for your chance too because you might want to talk to this person next to you, but if you just jump in with a question out of nowhere, it may seem very strange, but if you wait and you have a moment, you wait for that guy with the funny hat to walk, yeah, and then you have your chance, then you have a natural point where you can get into a conversation with someone, yeah, and I think .

So be totally patient and go back to your point about not being shy, don't focus so much on waiting for that moment and choose something really strange, like if I approach you, I don't know me in a bar. I thought, did you hear that noise? That's a really strange question, maybe he heard that noise, but that's a really strange question. To introduce you, yes, that's right, this is actually all of this, it ties into my second tip, which is very similar. To your advice about making one type of comment was to ask an indirect question and I noticed that a lot of the comments, your advice was to make a comment, but a lot of your comments, the examples you gave are correct questions and, most importantly, I think those questions should be indirect questions, for example, if I am standing at the bus stop and I want to start a conversation with someone else who is standing at the bus stop, let's say it is very very hot, but if I address that person and I say, you think it's hot, that's really strange, but if I say something like oh, it's pretty hot today, you know, that's a little more informal, a little more informal, yeah, you don't want to scare people. with these very direct questions, that's true, that's true. and even a question that is a great example: do you think it is fashionable?

It's a really strange question. Very strange question, but again, by maintaining or giving people the opportunity to agree with you, you are throwing in a bit of an opinion. It's fashionable, right? Oh yeah. hot, it's true, it's very, very good, I totally agree or and I, but I think for exactly that reason some people came up to me and tried to start a conversation about how are you and I told them. yeah, that's good, yeah, that's an introduction you use for people you already know, yeah, um, so don't try to start a conversation with how are you, it sounds too familiar and it's a little confusing for the person you strangers they don't know I don't always want to tell you how they are, that's true, what if I'm bad?

I don't want to tell you what happens if I feel bad that day, yeah, so don't use how you are to introduce yourself, nice, okay? I have the next one, actually, okay, maybe this is somewhat related to what you just mentioned, okay, I have it, okay, this is maybe like a party or a social event. I introduced myself briskly and asked a question about where you are. Well, this might be a little specific, but if you go to a social event where you're there to meet people and talk to people, if you walk up to someone and just introduce yourself with a big smile and say hello, my name is Alice, have you ever you've been to one of these events before something like this can start the conversation, but again this?

I feel like it's advice that's good in a place where maybe everyone is there for a similar purpose. If you do that, like using your example at the bus station, it's a little strange or if you're just. In public you pass someone on the street, it's a little strange to just walk up and introduce someone forcefully, but if you're somewhere where you have this opportunity, there are a couple of nice little introductory questions you could use for events like I don't know. , that's one I would have used like Hi, is this your first time here? Who do you know at this party?

Yes, how did you find out about this event? Those kinds of things are similar questions in those as well. If you're asking for help, you know, can you tell me where the kitchen is? You need to put this on the refrigerator, something like that and then that shows the other person that you're not an expert at this, you're asking for their help and that gives people an easy thing to engage with you. It's an easy thing to talk about, yes absolutely, asking for help can also be a good way, yes that's a good point, I think asking for help also puts you in a slightly vulnerable position, makes you look a bit like you need help. so you know, please take care of me, it's kind of interesting, so it's also good advice, I think it's okay, I think we're at number three for you.

We are, my last one, it is very important, this comes at the end. Although don't take it personally if the person doesn't want to talk many times if you try to start a conversation with a stranger, they don't always want to talk to you people try to talk, a stranger tries to talk. for me, I may be very busy, I may have had a bad day, I may not want to talk to them, that doesn't mean they are bad people or they can't speak English or anything like that, so if you have that experience, You know, my first piece of advice was: don't be shy, you might get very nervous starting a conversation with someone and then you work up the courage, go and ask them a question and they don't want to talk to you, that's okay.

Don't take it personally, it has nothing to do with you, you know, you can find someone else to talk to, that's true, that's true, and I think that's especially important because, especially, depending on the culture of the that you are, you may have heard things like Oh, English speakers, particularly Americans, are very friendly or very outgoing, but you know, if a stranger tries to talk to me or you, we might ignore you on the street because we don't know who it is. that person or you. maybe like you say we've had a bad day or whatever there are so many reasons not to want to talk to a person you don't know so don't be offended don't be sad don't be discouraged No, don't think that, my God, my English is so It's bad that this person didn't want to talk to me, don't think it could be any other reason why someone doesn't want to talk to you, that's true. that's true, good advice, it's very important, okay, so we'll move on to maybe the last one, eh, okay, for my last one this is maybe between people you know, so maybe you're not very close to them, but you.

You've seen them before or maybe they're coworkers you're not very close with, but you'd still like to deepen your relationship with those people. You can share a story about something you did recently. Something interesting. A little story. Tell a long 10 minute story about, I don't know, going to buy milk on the weekend, that's boring, but something interesting that you did relatively recently and that maybe they can find something of interest or something of value, like that Maybe you found a new restaurant that was cool, maybe you went to a concert and that was exciting, maybe you met someone interesting, so if there's something you can share about yourself that the other person might find valuable, that's it. it's a good way to start a conversation yeah on that point if I can add another one more free tip oh my goodness in that note it made me think you talked earlier about being vulnerable asking for help can show you're vulnerable tell a embarrassing story, that's good too, no, don't brag, no.

Don't talk about this great new car you bought, no one wants to hear that, talk about how you lost your car keys right after you bought your new car, tell an embarrassing story, tell something that will make the person laugh and make you feel happy . vulnerable and seem like a normal person, that's true, that's true, how to say it, it's actually a good strategy, it's called self-hatred, so doing it means making yourself look bad or putting you in ashare that information, the key is to make sure you talk for a while before asking for this type of personal information.

Welcome to English class 101.com English in 3 minutes, the fastest, easiest and most fun way to learn English. Hello everyone, I'm Alicia.

There are many ways you can answer this question, but here are some of the most common ways you could say: Do you know? and then the name of the area you live in. You know? Twin Pines or you could mention a local landmark like near the library near the movie theater. You can also respond by telling the person which train line you live on, whether your city has a train network, or which station is closest to your home on the green. line near the central station, as you can see, there are many possible ways to answer the question: where do you live?

Maybe I'm afraid I don't know, the other person is simply being polite by showing interest, so you can respond by saying something like "oh really", since the other person is asking you this question, being polite is a good way to continue the conversation. is to ask them the same question in return, you can just say what about you or where you live, put a little stress on yourself, where do you live now is the time for Alice's advice, asking where someone lives is a way of trying to find something that you have in common with the person you're talking to, so if you're familiar with the area the other person lives in, make some comments about it, it's a really nice area or the park is really nice, it's all good , as long as you don't say anything negative that could be taken as offensive, like that area has a high crime rate or that I heard that area is really dangerous.

Hello everyone. m alicia in this series we will learn some easy ways to ask and answer common questions in english. It's really useful and will only take you three minutes.

We will tell you how to do this.

The question is simple if the other person is over 22, it is likely that she has already left university, so you ask using the past tense where you went to university. You can also say where you went to school in American English, depending on the context, school often means the same as university if the other person is British or European however they are more likely to say where you went to university the answer to This question is very easy all you say is that I went to college in the city I went to the university of southern oregon in ashland if the name of the city or town is part of the name of the university like university of tokyo or university of oxford you can add the name of the country instead i went to the university of tokyo in japan once you have heard the other person's answer it is polite to make some kind of comment for example wow that is a very famous university or just, oh really, sometimes when you ask where you went to college, the other person may answer that I didn't go to college, in this situation you need to be careful when answering so as not to seem rude.

It's polite not to act surprised, but rather to make a positive comment like, "Oh, really," or ask a question like, "You walked right into a job." Now it's time for Alice's advice. A good follow-up question to keep the conversation going is to ask the other person. What did you study or what was your specialty? This gives them the opportunity to talk about something that interests them. In the next lesson, you will learn how to ask another basic question about the other person, which often appears in conversations for the first time between native speakers. Speakers, do you have any brothers or sisters?
