Hi there, my name is Anmol and today we are going to be talking about some
English phrases. So let’s get started!
1. 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 phrase just by saying hello.
Hey, hi, what’s up, hello, what’s up, yo.
Pretty much any time of the day you can use hello.
2. 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 morning with your close friends and close co-workers.
3. The next phrase is “goodnight”.
Goodnight is fine. We don’t use this to greet other people.
We use it when we are saying goodbye to other people at night
or family members particularly mothers and fathers to say goodnight 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, goodnight.
4. So the next word to talk about is “goodbye”.
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.
5. Okay the next phrase is, “I am (plus your name)”.
Of course, this is a way to introduce yourself.
You can use I am – in my case Alisha. I am Alisha, to introduce yourself in any situation.
New friend, I am Anmol.
6. Okay the next phrase is “what’s your name?”
And what’s your name is used to ask someone else what their name is.
So what is your name sounds a bit – try 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.
7. 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 maybe a formal situation or a business context.
8. Okay the next phrase is “how are you?”
How are you is just a friendly way to check in with the other person.
You can use it with friends, your family, your coworkers, maybe even your boss to a certain degree.
How are you, how are you doing?
9. The next phrase is “I am fine, thanks. And you?”
If you saw English in Three Minutes, we talked a lot about this phrase.
Instead of “I am fine, thank you. And you?” say “I am good, thanks, how are you?”
Just shorten it and 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 am 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.
10. 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 at a restaurant for example,
would you like more water? Would you like something to drink? Oh, please.
11. The next phrase is “thank you”.
Thank you is used to express your appreciation.
You can use thank you with everybody.
12. The next phrase is “you are welcome”.
You are welcome. When someone says thank you, you can say you are welcome, no biggie.
I use no biggie as in no biggie is short for no big problem.
13. The next word is “yes”.
Yes, of course. Yes means it is any of this positive expression.
Someone asks you a question and the answer is a positive answer.
You say yes, yep, aha, yeah, we, no next time guessing a no, yep.
14. 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, 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 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.
15. The next word is “okay”.
Okay. This word comes from copyeditors okay when they had to check a manuscript.
They had to label the manuscript, all clear ac but because they were copyeditors and they have very, very sick sense of humor, they thought they would mark it okay for all clear to make a joke because o and k do not start all and clear but it caught on among everybody in the world.
Anyway okay 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 are going to talk about blah, blah, blah.
i cant write more than these please ,
Mark it as a BRAINLIEST if you find it useful..
THANKS.............
