hi everybody my name is Alicia

and today we're going to be talking about the top 25 English phrases

so let's get started the first phrase is hello hello of course is used

as a greeting you can greet your friends you can greet your co-workers your

family with this friend just by saying hello hey hi what's up hello sup

yo pretty much any time of day you can use hello hello the next

phrase is good morning good morning is used

as a greeting in the morning you can kind of feel

when morning ends for you good morning is nice

and polite or even just mourning with your close friends

or close co-workers the next phrase is good night good night is fine we

don't use this to greet other people we use it

when we're saying goodbye to other people at night uh family members particular mothers

and fathers to say good night to their children before they put them to

bed you can say it to your friend in a text message

or in an email

if you've been talking for a

while good night so the next word to talk about is goodbye uh use

it when you say goodbye to your friends

when you leave your friends goodbye bye of course take care have a nice

day peace out that's another way to say goodbye okay the next phrase is

I'm plus your name of course this is a way to introduce yourself you

can use I'm in my case Alicia I'm Alicia to introduce yourself in any

situation new friend I'm Alicia okay the next phrase is what's your name what's

your name is used to ask someone else what their name is

so what is your name sounds a bit tried to use what's your name

if you forget someone's name you can say sorry what's your name

or sorry what's your name again next phrase is nice to meet you nice

to meet you anytime you meet someone new nice to meet you is fine

good to meet you is a little more casual great to meet you sounds

very excited pleasure to meet you sounds like a maybe a formal situation

or a business context okay the next phrase is how are you how are

you is it's just a friendly way to check in with the other person

you can use it with friends your family your co-workers maybe even your boss

to a certain degree uh how are you how you doing the next phrase

is I'm fine thanks

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 good thanks how are you just shorten it make it

a little bit more natural how are you good how are you great how

are you not so good how are you okay

and so on so

when someone says how are you offer I usually say I'm good this week

I blah blah blah give some information about what you've been up to maybe

a hobby something that you did recently an event something interesting you saw whatever

people want to make

that connection with you

and it's a good chance for you to continue speaking 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

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 is used to express your appreciation you can use thank

you with everybody the next phrase is you're welcome you're welcome

when someone says thank you you can say you're welcome no biggie I use

no biggie as in no biggie is short for no big problem the next

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 yep

uh-huh yeah we no next I'm guessing I know it yep the next word

is no no is a negative response to something

when you have to give a negative answer

so as you can probably guess um the long form of no is negative

I like to use nope it's very very casual not going to happen my

parents would use that with me to soften

that a little bit

if you want to show a negative response to something like let's go out

for dinner tonight what do you want to do like do you want to

go out not really no I don't think

so to soften it the next word is okay okay this word comes from

copy editors okay when they had to check a manuscript um they had to

label the manuscript all clear AC

but because they were copy editors

and they have a very very sick sense of humor they thought they would

mark it k for all clear to make a joke

because o and K do not not start all

and clear but it caught on among everybody in the world anyway okay uh

is used to agree with somebody else well it can be used actually to

express a positive or kind of a slight negative I feel transitioning in your

conversation you can say okay now we're going to talk about blah blah blah

okay the next phrase is excuse me excuse me it's used to get someone's

attention in English when you don't know the other person for example in a

store a supermarket Maybe 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 I personally

do not do rude things in public ever I'm sorry is the next word

we're going to talk about I'm sorry is used to apologize

when you have made a mistake

or someone you know has made a mistake

and you're connected to it

or you just feel bad you can use I'm sorry you made a mistake

at work I'm sorry you forgot to feed your cat I'm sorry sorry sorry

about that you bump someone next to you oh sorry what time is it

is the next phrase

when you need to check what time it is what time is it

when you ask someone else what time it is maybe you say this to

yourself too check your watch check your phone check a clock pretty straightforward phrase

there aren't really any short versions

so that's an easy one where is the plus a location

so you can use this for um a building

or a store we don't we're not going to use this where is the

for a place a city name

or a estate name name

or a country name to do

that you would need to remove the

but where is the bank where is the Post Office you can use this

to ask directions to ask for help in your house

or at work where is the copy machine where is the file I need

where is the blah blah blah where is the bathroom is perhaps a very

important question to know the next one is may I use the restroom may

I use the restroom is a polite uh

and soft expression that you can use

if you need to use the toilet you need to use the washroom

when you're at someone's house for the very first time

when you're in a place

that you're that is new to you you can ask may I use the

restroom more casually can I go to the bathroom to be very polite you

can say may I go to the bathroom the next phrase is I would

like to order something you can use this at a restaurant probably

or in any situation where you need to place an order I'd like a

pizza I'd like a beer can I get the check please this will be

used at a restaurant

when you've finished your meal

and it's time to go can I get the check please in a very

very casual situation you can just say check please that's fine the next phrase

is see you soon see you soon is used with friends

and family members perhaps uh

when you expect to see them again soon after saying goodbye to them this

is used at the end of the conversation you're going separate directions you say

see you soon see you is also good

or just see you to make it a little more formal you can say

I'll see you again soon make a full sentence out of it

that way the next phrase is see you later see you later is very

similar to see you soon

but the point is with see you later is

that you're probably going to meet

that person again later on in the same day the last phrase is really

really is a very useful word

because you can use it to show you interested in a conversation with upward

intonation really really tell me more

or to show that you're not

so interested in the conversation with downward intonation really

so there are many other words

that you can use similar to really in this way like seriously

or oh oh and

so on so it's a really good practice for your intonation uh

so those are 25 very common words uh

and phrases is in English

these are the top 25 most commonly used nouns in English

so let's get started the first noun is the word name name of course

is used in common questions like what's your name my name is

and so on my favorite actor's name is Harrison Ford something like

that say my name say my name the next word is time time is

used of course to express the point in the day is used in questions

like what time is it can you tell me what time it is I

don't have any time lately

if you're really busy have you any time it's time for my favorite show

House of Cards Kevin's spy is cool the next noun is man please be

careful man is one of those words

that has an irregular plural form

when you need to use the plural of the word man you should say

men do not say mans it's very funny

but uh don't say it who's

that man or what's up man you can use man with men

or women interestingly enough the next word is woman women also has an irregular

plural form please say women

when referring to more than one woman not women's

or woman even though the uh the singular

and the plural form of women

and woman have the same spelling at the beginning w m the pronunciations are

different woman women so watch out for

that when you say this pretty woman the next word is person person you

can use it to refer generally to either a man

or a woman please be careful person's uh plural form becomes people

when you want to talk about another culture for example you can say such

and such country's people

or the people in

that country speak blah blah blah language the next word is thing generally an

inanimate object something that is

that just doesn't move like a water bottle

or you know a sweater a thing you can use it

when you don't know the word for something

so thing is very very useful what is this thing uh I like many

things for example Where the Wild Things Are a movie that's already out

that I totally knew about the next word is mother mother is the person

the woman who gave birth to you isn't

that exciting mother is commonly shortened to Mom

or mama or mommy ma Madre

if you speak Spanish mom Mamba

if you're me Mamita the next word is day of course day is used

in all of the days of the week Monday Tuesday Wednesday th Frid Satur

Sunday time period when the sun is out the day

or the daytime have a nice day the next word is world world just

refers to the entire planet Earth I like to travel all around the world

or I like trying foods from all around the world in the world of

science this is an upcoming technology

or in the world of literature he's one of the most famous authors

so worlds can be used to refer just just to um kind of a

more specific hobby or a specific interest

or just a specific person's life war of Worlds father father is your dad

um other other common words used for father are dad Papa pop daddy po

FAA I use that one with my dad

while mother is used to refer to kind of like nurturing kind of like

you know the Earth

or things that like kind of give life to others father at least in

my mind there's kind of this image of um someone who's a little bit

more strict in your life the next word is Sister a female sibling is

your sister you can also use sister for a female person

that you feel very very close with

so I might call my female friend who's I'm very close to my sister

my brother likes to shorten it to sis you might also hear sister

as well if you are silly sister whoopy Goldberg was in a famous movie

called Sister Act the next word is brother brother is a male sibling uh

you can also use brother to refer to a close male friend common variations

of brother are brother bro bra brosie brosi depending on what kind of person

you are you can choose to use any number of those like I might

sarcastically say to my friend cool story bro like

if he's told me a story that's not very exciting in Mario for example

the name of the Mario games is actually Super Mario Brothers

but Brothers is abbreviated

as b r oos Super Mario Bros yeah just be careful about your use

of bro because it sounds a little bit like a college age boy uh

that's kind of the kind of the feeling of the word bro Oh Brother

Where Art Thou the next word is daughter daughter is a female child daughter

do you have a daughter I have a daughter I don't have a daughter

taken it's son a male child is someone's son son s o n is

pronounced exactly the same

as s u n son what are you talking about son the next word

is i e ye I your I is the round thing

that you use to see with I is used in a lot of expressions

and idioms in English

as in I've got my eye on you meaning I'm watching you

or keep your eye out for something meaning please look for something

or please pay close attention I'm waiting for something to happen 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 to 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 head of a

group the head of the line

so whoever is first in the line whoever is top at the company they

are the head 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 weird plural form one foot two feet foot interestingly enough foot

is used of course to refer to your body part uh a foot also

is a unit of measurement

if you are from America

or I believe one other country in the world uses this system sorry we're

not on board with the metric thing in America

but foot uh is 12 in about this long

so if head refers to the top of things foot is used to refer

to the bottom of things

bottom of the page there will be a space called the footer meaning the

bottom where you can put little notes uh to your reader the next word

as a verb your work refers to your job your responsibilities your tasks at

your office or your workplace you can use it in a phrase like I

as part of a separate phrase

as well not just by itself believe the next word is believe believe is

used a verb it's a verb um

when you trust in something

or that you feel

that you know uh

that something exists or something is possible

or something is capable um many people use it

as in like uh I believe in you to show

that they think that the other person

or the other group of people is capable of doing something

or um people use it for their faith

as well like I believe in God

or I don't believe in God for something

that you you have your faith in

and another person or in religion whatever

that might be consistency consistency is a noun the consistency of a liquid can

be really thick or kind of thin

or you can also use consistency to talk about um something that's important

that you need when you're studying a language for example consistency

so consistency refers to doing the same thing the same way over

and over and over again studying every day

or making a habit out of studying creating consistency in your study patterns will

really help you in learning another language watch our videos every week we're consistent

friend friend that's good I'm glad

that that was a word

that was chosen from the Facebook thing friend um yeah

so someone that you feel close to

or someone that you get along really well with is your friend in a

sentence I went out drinking with my friends yesterday

and that was a bad idea friend also can be used um for the

people who follow you

or the people who you're connected to on social media

so your Facebook friend maybe Twitter you can have Twitter friends um maybe Instagram

friends people that you haven't actually met

but that you somehow have a connection with online people are now calling them

your friends um but whether

or not they are true friends remains to be seen what is a true

friend a true friend is someone who you can tell all your things to

and they won't judge you for it Gate Crash this this uh Gate Crash

means to go to an event without having been invited to the event I've

also heard um just crash I haven't heard it with gate

but I've just heard crash

as in to crash a party

so in a sentence I once crashed a house party I wasn't invited

but someone somehow we had a connection

and we just showed up

and had a good time

but usually gate Crashers are perceived

as um they're very unwelcome like you you shouldn't be there great great is

just a positive word how are you I'm great oh how was

that movie it was great anytime

that you want to express some sort of positivity you can use the word

great great you're great E Pizza is pretty great I haven't eaten Pizza in

a while Pizza I don't know I love the phrase I don't know I

talked about this phrase in um one of the English topics videos

that we did with Michael check

that out if you haven't already I don't know of course is used

when you do not know information you don't know the answer your teacher asks

you a question in math class

or something and you can say I don't know for I have no ideas

so you can use it in this way

but I like to use I don't know a lot to transition in my

speech when I don't have a good idea

or when I'm out of things to say

and I want to kind of pass the conversation to the next person I

go I don't know I don't know you can use this

when you're trying to make a decision for example

and you kind of want to encourage the other person to like help make

the decision so one person might say what do you want to do

and you can say I don't know what do you want to do I

don't know what do you want to do

and eventually somebody has to make the decision

but you can kind of pass back

and forth with I don't know I don't know

and this sort of soft way never mind yeah never mind means don't worry

about it or um maybe like stop thinking about

that I don't need to think about

that anymore never mind like you want to move on in the conversation you

can say never mind

or you make an embarrassing comment never mind what is happening there was there's

like a creaky cracky thing happening never mind oh I just used it never

mind no it wasn't on purpose

so I just used never mind

that was pretty good passion passion passion refers to something

that you feel very strongly about positively usually

so you can feel passion for your studies you can feel passion for your

hobby you can feel passion for your family

or your friend I think we use passion more

so to talk about um like a love relationship of a romantic relationship

so you can say I have passion for my wife I have passion for

my husband or like I have passion for this hobby

that I do it's a really positive word

so in a sentence let's see I think a relationship should be full of

passion have passion for music I do I have passion for music I constantly

listening to music uh from the moment I wake up in the morning I

literally have headphones in in my bed

and I'm listening to my latest the latest new things on my SoundCloud stream

that's true sparkler why did you guys pick sparkler sparkler a sparkler is a

a small firework like a handheld firework

that you can use like in Fourth of July you light one end of

it and it kind of goes it makes

that sound too it goes

and it kind of Burns

and you can write stuff

and if you take a picture with a like a long timer on the

camera or whatever you can spell out boobs one of my favorite things to

do on the 4th of July in America is to light sparklers with my

family and friends and that's the end

so those were let's see how many 10 those were 10 really cool words

that you guys chose uh from Facebook thanks a lot for participating

and sending in those words uh it's interesting to see what you guys chose

uh thanks again for watching today

and we will see you again next time bye we're stirring the pot here

at English class 101 1com hi everybody my name is Alicia

and today we're going to be talking about 10 of the hardest words to

pronounce according to you guys

so we collected some information from you on Facebook thanks very much for sending

in your ideas and these were the top 10 uh most difficult words for

you to pronounce so let's get started absolutely absolutely absolutely might be tough to

pronounce absolutely means 100% absolutely is an agreement phrase are you going to

that music event next week absolutely yes 100% definitely absolutely loot like a loot

l u t e b Grime B Grime apparently means dirty I never heard

nor used this word before

but perhaps it's difficult to pronounce big Grime the door to my apartment was

beg grimed in the storm last week breakfast the next word is breakfast breakfast

is hard to pronounce

but that is the meaning of breakfast you're breaking the fast

so a fast is a period of time without eating

and to break means to to well in this case breaking something it doesn't

refer to like crushing a thing

but um stopping something to break the fast of the night in other words

so you're fasting during the night you're not eating

so you wake up in the morning you break the fast

but we don't say breakfast we say breakfast in a sentence this morning for

breakfast I ate a bowl of cereal with grapes

and I had a coffee too colleague colleague yes colleague many of my students

struggle with this they say colleague

or they say call

or something cuz the spelling of this word is really really strange there's

that gu e at the end

or more commonly I feel it's just co-worker uh colleague sounds slightly more formal

to me than cooworker somebody who you work with

or somebody who you have a business relationship with in some sense could be

a person from another company could be somebody from your own company anyone who

you do business dealings with is your colleague can be your colleague in a

sentence I'm going to a networking event with my colleagues next week misscellaneous

that m i c miscellaneous it's just the spelling I think maybe is confusing

for this word miscellaneous miscellaneous just means other stuff

or just other uncategorized stuff I keep lot of miscellaneous items in a drawer

in my house maybe they don't they don't really fit into one category like

it's not kitchen things it's not clothing it's just sort of a mixture of

of things miscellaneous things negotiation the next word is negotiation negotiation yeah there are

two T's in this

but neither T is a hard T they're both very soft

that sh sh sound

because they're followed by the I

and another vow the she a negotiation negotiation refers to a compromise between two

people you're trying to make a decision

and you negotiate in this case this a noun form negotiation business negotiations continued

for more than a month with this important deal realm realm I see why

this one's hard it's

that R part little realm it's a weird word isn't it it's used to

talk about just like kind of a fantasy world is sort of the Nuance

of this phrase the realm uh in a sentence let us go to the

realm where the elves live

and eat their bread unfortunately the next word is unfortunately unfortunately unfortunately just means

too bad uh you can use this to to start bad news for example

like unfortunately I can't come to work today

because I'm sick or unfortunately I broke my arm at the basketball game last

week or unfortunately my haircut is bad vocabulary vocabulary vocabulary vocab vocabulary VOC abary

vocabulary vocabulary just refers to the uh words in a language my vocabulary in

my second language is really really low I need a bigger vocabulary

so that I can express myself more clearly world world a I see why

this one's hard world world hard to pronounce

that rld D I think together is tough plus

that w at the beginning

as well it's such a short word

but you have to say

so many weird things to same time world your tongue is going like this

in a sentence I have traveled all over the world

and the best food is in my stomach that's the end

so those were 10 hard to pronounce words give them a try slowly at

first and just kind of try to work up to saying it at a

more natural speed if you like thank you

so much for sharing your opinions with us on Facebook U

and please make sure to subscribe to our channel

so that you don't miss out on any of this fun information

so thanks again for watching today

and we'll see you again next time bye you don't need new shoes you

need new feet why is the Jurassic Park them songs coming out hi everybody

my name is Alicia

and today we're going to be talking about 15 questions

that you should know

so these are 15 questions

that not necessarily um you need to know how to ask them perhaps you

know um some of the questions already

but you will probably also hear these questions

as well so um we'll practice a few different answers for these questions too

so let's get started do you like American food the first question is do

you like American food you will probably be asked this question do you like

American food you can either say yes

or no or you can give a specific example example someone says do you

like American food yes I love Philly cheese steaks I would recommend saying yes

or a little or

or or you can just say I don't know what do you recommend have

you been to the United States the next question is have you been to

the United States have you been to the United States

so someone asks you have you been to the United States you should reply

with either yes I have

or no I haven't

or maybe no I haven't yet

but I want to

when you want to ask someone this question you can say have you been

to Japan have you been to Egypt have you been to China whatever you

can use your own country

when you ask this question how are you how are you

when someone asks how are you don't say I'm fine thank you

and you please don't say

that please say something more natural like good great I'm good how are you

something like that is much better than I'm fine thank you

and you be a little more genuine in your reply also

when you ask this question maybe one point to help sound a little more

natural when you ask someone else don't like try to say how are you

how are you instead of how are you

or uh and make make sure your intonation is correct I've had a few

people ask me uh how are you like a little too like yeah with

this question or like how are you

but how are you should be the intonation with this how are you how

are you is a little bit more natural how long have you been studying

English how long have you been studying English how long have you been studying

English English great question to know the answer to your answer should be I

have been studying English for blah blah blah years

or blah blah blah months

or blah blah weeks

but if that's too much for you you can just use the time how

long have you been studying English 6 years how long have you been studying

English two months so just pick the time uh

if if the whole sentence is quite long for you how old are you

we don't really go around asking people how old they are like just the

first time you meet them necessarily especially uh

if they're old old much older than you like uh in particular it's sometimes

considered rude to ask especially women uh how old they are

so just be careful with this question

but if you're about the same age group um you know maybe you're at

an event or a party

or something and you just want to check how old the other person is

you can use this phrase

when you reply to this just say uh I'm plus the number to make

a really simple response

so how old are you I'm 15 how old are you I'm 42 whatever

the answer is just stick I'm in front of it not I

but I'm I am

but use the contracted form to sound more natural I'm number

if you want to make a full sentence you can say I'm Number years

old don't forget that s in years I'm a million years old what did

you say what did you say

if you couldn't quite hear something

that someone else said you can use this question to confirm sorry what did

you say it's a little nicer than just saying what what did you say

or what did you just say sorry what did you say I couldn't hear

he you what's this what's this

when you don't know what something is what's this

when you're out for dinner you're out for lunch

or something and you find a new food you

or you just you're curious just say what's this to reply to this question

just say it's blah blah blah what's your name what's your name of course

you should know how to ask this question

and how to answer this question what's your name is a little more natural

than what is your name again contracted form will help you sound much more

natural so what's your name someone asks you you can just give your name

Alicia that's fine you can say Alicia you can say I'm Alicia that's fine

too you can say my name is

or my names Alicia either any of those are fine in a more formal

situation a business situation I would I would use my name is blah blah

blah while I shake hands

or something what's your phone number the next one is what's your phone number

I would not ask this question right away like maybe you've met the person

a few times but You' like to contact them whether it's

because you're romantically interested in them

or because you want to be better friends with them

but just if you meet someone for the first time

and you're like what's your phone number it's like a little it's a little

too much so use this question after you've met the person a few times

and you know you want to become better friends

when you want to give your phone number just say it's

and the number that's fine just it's blah blah blah

or my phone number is blah blah blah with the number 5551 million 526

when is your birthday

so maybe you want to plan a birthday party for example

or it's just another fun question the first time you meet someone

when is your birthday

so when you want to tell someone your birthday just give the month

and the date um January 15th August 42nd that's a real day

if you want to make a full sentence you can say my birthday is

month date where are you from the next word the next question is where

are you from this can refer to your country

or your city M

but I I feel like prop more stuff in it refers to your country

so where are you from your answer should be I'm from place I'm from

China I'm from Japan I'm from Vietnam I'm from America whatever I'm from where

did you learn English the next question is where did you learn English where

did you learn English

if you're speaking great English you can say I learned English at englishclass101.com cuz

you did cuz you're watching now anyway where did you learn English in this

case in the case of like these videos I learned English online

or I learned English from uh

and then the school name

or the program name

so I learned English from englishclass101.com for example

if you studied English at University you can say I learned English at University

or I learned English from my friends perhaps where do you live where do

you live depending on the situation where you ask this this can mean your

country like uh I live in America I live in China sometimes it's about

the place in in the city where you live sometimes it's about the country

where you live so you can kind of feel I think

which question which type of question is being asked where do you work where

do you work is talking about your job you can use the pattern I

work at company name

or I work for company name either is fine I work at ABC company

I work for ABC company either is okay

but you know if

if you have answered with the wrong information the other person will just ask

you like oh I mean where is your office

or oh I mean

which company do you work for use the force for this one where is

the bathroom where is the bathroom very important question where is the bathroom in

American English where is the bathroom

or where is the restroom is more common than where is the toilet using

the word toilet is a little bit too Direct in American English

so I recommend bathroom

or restroom so those are 15 questions

that you should definitely know um know how to ask these questions

and know how to answer these questions they are very useful uh

and very important for everyday conversation thanks very much for joining us thank you

very much for um subscribing

if you haven't subscribed yet please be sure to do

so so that you can check our fun stuff every week um with

that we will see you again next time bye

if you are baby watching this video please contact us

because you're amazing did you know my birthday is January 15th before you said

that no is it really yeah is it really yeah Thunderdome in my stomach

that's going at the end of a video I'm sure steak hi everybody my

name is Alicia and welcome back to top words today's topic is 10 lines

you need for introducing yourself

so let's go hello it's nice to meet you hello it's nice to meet

you you can only use this the first time

that you meet someone

if you say this to somebody after you have met them already you're going

to seem either a like you've completely forgotten meeting them

or B like you are a very strange person for saying it's nice to

meet you again so

when you use this the first time you can shake hands with someone

and say hello it's nice to meet you my name is the next phrase

is my name is blah blah blah in my case my name is Alicia

you can use this again

when you're introducing yourself

or if you need to reintroduce yourself you can use this pattern

when you meet somebody at a party for example you can say my name

is blah blah blah my name is Barbara my name is Stevens you can

shorten this you can say my names my names blah blah blah I'm from

after you've said your name after you've shaken hands you can say I'm from

the US I'm from Japan I'm from Turkey I'm from your mom's house I'm

from I'm from a cave in southern Europe I'm from your country

or I'm from your city I'm from the future I have to go I

live in I live in blah blah blah you can use your city uh

you can use your country you can use even maybe

if you live near a certain station you can use the name of the

station uh where you live

so for example I live in America is fine I live in Los Angeles

is fine I live in New York is fine

so your neighborhood is fine

if someone says where do you live

and you say I live in an apartment it's like H what uh

so please use your the region

or the location where you live not the type of place where you live

IMA if you hear the question what do you do it it's asking about

your job in English people don't say what is your job that's not the

question that we ask instead the question is what do you do

and the correct response to

that is I'm a

or I'm an blah blah blah followed by your job title

so if someone says what do you do you can say I'm a teacher

what do you do I'm an engineer what do you do I'm a dut

shop tester I'm years old

when someone asks how old are you you can say I'm blah blah blah

years old don't forget the S at the end of this

if you like you can shorten this phrase to just I'm plus your age

so I'm 65 I'm 13 whatever I'm this many sometimes children will say

that how old are you they'll say I'm this many it's kind of cute

first time you meet someone you might not ask how old are you

if it's in a friendly case like a in a party after you've spoken

to the person a little bit it's okay um

but just try to be sensitive to the context try to be sensitive to

the people around you

and if you sense

that maybe there's a very large age gap between you it might be better

just not to ask the question at all I enjoy many of my students

say what is your hobby um

but that's not something

that native speakers will say no native speakers say what is your hobby instead

we ask uh what do you like to do

or what do you do in your free time this is a much more

natural question than what's your hobby the answer to this

then is I enjoy

or I like plus a noun phrase

so for example what do you like to do I like listening to music

or I enjoy listening to music what do you do in your free time

I like watching movies what do you do in your free time time I

like baking cakes what do you do in your free time I enjoy tap

dancing what do you do in your free time I enjoy making new friends

a one of my hobbies is one of my hobbies is blah blah blah

with this one it's probably better to use a short easily

or easy to understand hobby

if you're explaining a hobby people are going to expect

that it's going to be something

that they know about like photography you're cooking

or dancing or swimming

or whatever so try to pick something

that will allow you to to continue the conversation that's why movies

or cooking or books

or you know sports are a good thing to share one of my hobbies

is snowboarding I've been learning English for

if you are learning English

if you're studying English you can use this expression

if someone asks you how long have you been studying English you can say

I've been studying English for amount of time

or I've been learning English

or I've been practicing English

or I've been speaking English for a certain amount of time I've been studying

English since elementary school is also okay to use I've been studying English since

I was in college just be careful for is used for a length of

time and since is used for a specific point in time at

which you started something

so you can try

and mix it up

and use a few different uh Expressions there

so I've been learning English for a long time I'm still learning English you

should do that too okay I'm learning English englishclass101.com this probably could be used

in response to where did you learn English

or where are you studying English

or how are you studying English you can respond with I'm learning English at

englishclass101.com or I'm learning English at uh my school I'm learning English at uh

my private teacher's house for example

so a little bit of grammar in this sentence why do we use the

progressive tense I'm learning English

if you say I'm learning it sounds like you're still continuing your studies

if you say I learned English at englishclass101.com it sounds like you're finished uh

like you you're finished studying there's nothing else for you to study uh

so you're done um

so it's it's much much more natural to actually use the progressive I'm learning

or I'm studying uh

when you're talking about your studies

when you're talking about your hobbies um than it is to say I learned

or I studied and

and and and uh

so those were 10 lines

that you need to introduce yourself

and to help give the other a little bit of information

and carry the conversation forward

you again next time please make sure to subscribe

if you have not already uh

so that you don't miss out on any fun stuff thank you very much

again for watching and we'll see you again soon bye I guess I don't

really need to do

that I'm so sorry amped all the time Japanese Bug Battle hi everybody my

name is Alicia and today we're going to be talking about 10 phrases

that you never want to hear

so let's get into it have you gained weight recently the first phrase is

have you gained weight recently

if someone is asking you this question it means you look bigger than you

did before so for most people this is not a good thing have you

gained weight recently yeah I have I've been eating too much junk food

or I don't think

so or no I don't have your money today

so this phrase means maybe you were expecting money from someone

and they don't have it for you today

so if your boss says this for example you're probably going to be really

upset I'm sorry but I don't have your money today really I really needed

it today I told you

so kidss might use this phrase I told you

so this is kind of an overconfident phrase I Told You

So if you say told you it's a little bit lighter

but I told you

so like nobody wants to hear

that oh I was wrong

or maybe this other person thinks oh they're they were correct like they're making

it into like I'm I somehow know more than you do

so in a situation let's see oh I shouldn't have gone out drinking last

night I should have gone home

when you went home I told you

so drunk person it's not you it's me

but this is a very common phrase for breakups to show like you don't

want to hurt the other person's feelings it's just it's just some problem I

have but either way nobody nobody wants to hear this phrase it's not you

it's me look I'm really sorry

but I think that it's better

if we end our relationship here it's not you it's it's me it's not

you it's me really I'm

and finally Master English okay let's get started first is insignificant insignificant insignicant

so the word insignificant means something

that is not important it's not special

if we break this word down we have the prefix in

which means not or no

and the word significant

which means something that is important

or something that we need to care about

or pay attention to a lot

so together this means not significant

or not important or not something

that we need to care

or think about a lot insignificant insignificant amount insignificant amount insignificant amount famous famous

famous so something that is famous is something

or someone that is very very well known

so this is usually someone like a celebrity like an actor

or an actress maybe they're a musician they're part of a band perhaps they're

an artist they create paintings

or maybe they write something

that very very well known

so someone who is famous is known by many different people

and something that is famous is also known by many different people for example

famous actor famous actor famous actor sneeze sneeze sneeze

so sneeze is a verb

and a noun to sneeze the verb means

that feeling that you have in your nose

when your body needs to move air out of it really quickly we have

thatw right that's called the noun form sneeze

and as a verb we say to sneeze

so that means to do

that action for example the woman is sneezing the woman is sneezing the woman

is sneezing casual casual casual

so casual is the opposite of formal casual means something

that is kind of relaxed something

that is laidback something that's not super polite

so when we have everyday conversations with our friends we usually use casual language

or we dress in casual clothes

or we have kind of a casual feeling for example casual clothing casual clothing

casual clothing guitar guitar guar this word has kind of an interesting spelling it

starts with GUI but we pronounce this

as G so a guitar is a musical instrument we play it like this

usually and this is something

that is played all over the world there are lots

and lots of talented people who play guitar

and they are called guitarists for example some of them play a six string

guitar six string guitar six string guitar next is breathe breathe breathe breathe okay

this word is a verb it means to take air into your body

and to put air out of your body this process of getting air into

your body and moving it out is called breathing make sure you're cautious of

the spelling of this to breathe this word has an e at the end

yeah we also have a noun

that looks very similar

and is related to this process that's called breath

but there's no e at the end

so be careful when you use this

as a verb make sure you don't forget

that e for example breathe deeply breathe deeply breathe deeply spit spit spit

so this is kind of a gross vocabulary word

but it's important to know this is a noun

and a verb so

as a verb to spit means to force whatever is in your mouth out

of your mouth so

if you're eating something for example

and you spit it out

that means you force it out out of your mouth

if you have nothing in your mouth just the water the liquid in your

mouth and you put

that out of your mouth that's called spitting

so two spit means to force something out of your mouth

as a noun spit means just the liquid inside your mouth

so an example no spitting no spitting no spitting dentist dentist dentist

so the dentist is the tooth doctor

so when you you need to have your teeth cleaned

when you need to talk to a doctor about something happening in your mouth

with your teeth with your gums these kinds of things you visit a dentist

it's important to see a dentist regularly

so for example see a dentist see a dentist see a dentist cavity cavity

cavity so a cavity usually refers to a hole in your tube tooth

so this is a very common type of tooth damage

when you have a cavity you need to go

and see a dentist to get it repaired for example deep cavity deep cavity

deep cavity asthma asthma Asma

so this word has very interesting spelling there's a th in the middle

but we don't say Asma we say Asma

so kind of ignore

that but try to remember remember it

when you're spelling this word

so asthma is a very very common type of illness

that affects the lungs

so someone who has asthma may have trouble breathing normally

or maybe they are irritated their lungs get irritated by some kind of allergic

reaction or maybe they have to take some kind of medication to help them

to breathe regularly so different people have different kinds of asthma

but this is a very common illness

that affects the lungs

so here's an example expression asthma inhaler asthma inhaler Asma inhaler let's review I'm

going to describe a word

or phrase in English see

the word that means something

and finally Master English okay let's get started first is allergy allergy allergy this

word is a noun

and Allergy is a negative reaction

that you have to something else

so for example people might have an allergy to a certain food to a

certain kind of plant maybe to an animal

so this causes a reaction in the body for example maybe your eyes get

really really watery or you start to sneeze a lot these are examples of

allergies for example allergy to pollen allergy to pollen allergy to pollen next is

boarding pass boarding pass boarding pass okay a boarding pass is a piece of

paper or a digital pass

that you can show to Airline staff

when you need to get on a plane

so a boarding pass includes your flight number your seat number probably the gate

that your flight will take off from

so a boarding pass is necessary to get on a plane for example boarding

pass for the flight boarding pass for the flight boarding pass for the flight

next is education education education okay education is a noun education refers to the

things that we learn usually in school

or as well in our lifetime

so when we talk about going to school we talk about receiving education

so that's all of the different kind of knowledge

and the different experiences

that we have as kids becoming adults

and then after that we have other forms of Education other forms of knowledge

that we get from books from our jobs from our hobbies

and so on so there are many different ways to receive education

or to get education here's an example phrase Education

and Training Education and Training Education

and Training next is English English English Okay

so English is the language

that you are learning right now with this video

so English is a very interesting language it pulls inspiration from many other languages

and countries and cultures around the world with English we have kind of interesting

spellings to think about interesting ways to pronounce words

and there are many different dialects to consider in English

as well here's an example sentence Mr Suzuki teaches English Mr Suzuki teaches English

Mr Suzuki teaches English next is law law law

so law can refer to two different things law can refer to a country

or a city or a state's rules their formal rules are called laws

and when we go to school to study those things

because we want to become lawyers we also refer to the study of those

things as law for example law school law school law school next is flute

flute flute so a flute is a musical instrument a flute is played in

this position so we use our two hands next to our face to play

the flute it's a long kind of tube shaped instrument

that makes a high pitched sound this is very very common in orchestras

and in Symphonies and in maybe High School bands

as well for example silver flute silver flute silver flute okay next is it

and an IT department is a very very common section in many companies

and many organizations the it here stands for information technology

so usually the IT department is responsible for helping people with their computer problems

with other technology problems media problems

and so on for example call the IT department call the IT department call

the IT department next is business trip business trip business trip a business trip

is a trip that you take specifically for business

so that means it's different from a vacation

when you take a vacation it's just for fun

when you have a business trip you have to go somewhere for work

and maybe you have some fun

while you're there also

but the main purpose of your travels is work

or business for example go on a business trip go on a business trip

go on a business trip next is marketing marketing marketing marketing is another very

common and very important section of many companies

and organizations marketing refers to the process of creating things

that will help sell products

or sell goods and services to other people

so that can mean creating advertisements it can mean writing things on a company

website and so on for example marketing department marketing department marketing department next is

popular popular popular so popular means something

that many people like

so when something is popular

that means that a lot of people think

that it's really really good be careful not to confuse popular

and famous when something is famous it means many people know about it

or maybe many people know about a person

when something is popular it means lots of people know about it

and lots of people like it

so we can talk about people in this way we can talk about places

like restaurants and we can also talk about things with the word popular for

example popular man popular man popular man let's review I'm going to describe a

word or phrase in English see

and finally Master English okay let's get started first is accounting accounting accounting accounting

refers to keeping track of money

so in companies and organizations there is usually an accounting department it's a department

of the company that is responsible for keeping track of money related things

so where does the money go where are the receipts what was the money

used for and so on we also have personal accounting where we track our

own money for example accounting documents accounting documents a account in documents next is

bonus bonus bonus a bonus means something extra it means something

that is not part of the original plan

and in many cases it refers to extra money

so if you receive a bonus from your job for example it means

that you receive extra money at your job you might also just get something

called a bonus at something like an event

or at a restaurant

or maybe at some kind of concert

that you go to where you receive something extra

as a kind of gift

but usually this refers to money from work for example annual bonus annual bonus

annual bonus next is light light light

so there are a couple of different uses of the word light

but for this video I want to focus on the one

that refers to weight

so this light is the opposite of heavy

so something that is heavy weighs a lot it's difficult to pick up something

that is light does not weigh a lot it's very easy to pick up

for example light feather light feather light feather next is trombone trombone trombone a

trombone is a very common musical instrument this is a brass instrument it's very

unique in that it's played by moving a slide up

and down to change the pitch of the instrument for example brass trombone brass

trombone brass trombone next is departure departure departure

so departure refers to the time usually

that you leave somewhere we see this word a lot

as part of a schedule we can use departure with a time

or a place to talk about the location

or the time at

which we leave some place

so for example departure date departure date departure date next is arrival arrival Aral

arrival refers to the opposite of departure departure means to leave someplace arrival means

to come to someplace

as your destination so arrival can be used to talk about a schedule

and it can also be used to talk about a location for example arriv

Ral gate arriv Ral gate a rival gate next is violin violin violin a

violin is a very common

and very popular musical instrument this is a string instrument

that is small enough to be held in the hands next to the face

it's played by drawing a bow across the strings of the instrument for example

play the violin play the violin play the violin earth science earth science earth

science earth science is probably easy to guess it is science
