aspect of 25 00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:46.479 this video so what does that mean 26 00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:48.239 when you don't like something you don't 27 00:00:48.239 --> 00:00:50.479 just say i don't like it you start with 28 00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:50.960 something 29 00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:52.719 encouraging when i was doing my 30 00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:55.120 filmmaking course in los angeles 31 00:00:55.120 --> 00:00:57.280 i was learning to be a director of a 32 00:00:57.280 --> 00:00:59.520 movie and whenever i didn't like 33 00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:01.760 the acting of some actors that were in 34 00:01:01.760 --> 00:01:02.719 my movie 35 00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:04.959 i would tell them hey stop i don't like 36 00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:05.920 it let's do it again 37 00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:08.000 my teacher would always approach me and 38 00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:09.520 tell me marina 39 00:01:09.520 --> 00:01:12.640 you cannot do this in america maybe this 40 00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:14.400 is the russian way to do it and yes this 41 00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:15.920 is the russian way to do it the russians 42 00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:17.438 are very straightforward 43 00:01:17.438 --> 00:01:19.600 she told me that in america what we do 44 00:01:19.600 --> 00:01:21.200 we say excuse me 45 00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:23.759 i really like your acting you've done an 46 00:01:23.759 --> 00:01:24.880 amazing job 47 00:01:24.880 --> 00:01:27.360 there's just one thing i wanted to 48 00:01:27.360 --> 00:01:28.959 change a little bit 49 00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:31.280 in the next shoot that we do maybe you 50 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:32.560 could do this this and that 51 00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:34.319 so instead of just telling your person 52 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:35.840 how bad they are you actually tell them 53 00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:37.280 how great they are 54 00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:39.840 and then you tell them about things that 55 00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:42.799 can be worked on and this is the way 56 00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:45.280 to do that in the western culture and i 57 00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:46.240 actually like it 58 00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:48.560 it makes me feel more at ease instead of 59 00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:50.240 just receiving critics 60 00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:51.439 now that we're finished with the 61 00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:53.759 cultural aspect we can go straight into 62 00:01:53.759 --> 00:01:54.079 the 63 00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:56.079 english language part and with the 64 00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:57.280 english language part 65 00:01:57.280 --> 00:01:59.280 you know we've done a lot of classes on 66 00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:01.200 this channel 67 00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:02.880 where i help you replace different 68 00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:04.560 phrases like i don't like it as one of 69 00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:05.439 those phrases 70 00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:07.680 it's nice as one of those phrases i try 71 00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:09.200 to teach you synonyms 72 00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:12.160 so you can diversify your speech so in 73 00:02:12.160 --> 00:02:13.840 terms of i don't like it 74 00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:16.720 you can say i dislike it which is a 75 00:02:16.720 --> 00:02:18.319 little more advanced 76 00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:20.319 and it's a little more formal so if 77 00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:21.760 you're in a formal meeting 78 00:02:21.760 --> 00:02:23.680 and somebody gives you a proposal of 79 00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:26.080 course you start with oh the proposal is 80 00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:26.639 great 81 00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:29.599 i like this and this aspect of it but i 82 00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:30.720 dislike 83 00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:32.959 that you're doing this this and that 84 00:02:32.959 --> 00:02:34.319 that's the way to tell it 85 00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:36.160 i just like that expression immensely 86 00:02:36.160 --> 00:02:38.400 you can also say i'm not interested 87 00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:40.400 you can say your proposal is great but 88 00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:42.720 i'm not really interested in jumping on 89 00:02:42.720 --> 00:02:44.720 it in the next few weeks because i'm on 90 00:02:44.720 --> 00:02:46.239 my maternity leave 91 00:02:46.239 --> 00:02:48.400 uh instead of saying i don't like it you 92 00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:50.480 say i'm not really interested 93 00:02:50.480 --> 00:02:53.040 no i'm not interested if you're unhappy 94 00:02:53.040 --> 00:02:54.639 with somebody's actions you can tell 95 00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:55.040 them 96 00:02:55.040 --> 00:02:57.760 i don't really appreciate you being rude 97 00:02:57.760 --> 00:02:59.680 with me in public for example 98 00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:02.959 i don't appreciate it same way it's a 99 00:03:02.959 --> 00:03:04.560 synonym too i don't like it 100 00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:06.879 i don't appreciate it okay now let's 101 00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:09.200 jump onto the informal section 102 00:03:09.200 --> 00:03:11.440 i'm sure you've heard this hundreds of 103 00:03:11.440 --> 00:03:13.360 times i'm not into it 104 00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:16.080 and i'm not into you i'm not into 105 00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:17.120 playing sports 106 00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:20.400 i'm not into speaking other languages 107 00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:24.080 just english to be into something is to 108 00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:26.000 like something and we're trying to 109 00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:27.840 diversify your speech and learn new 110 00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:30.080 phrases so another way to say i don't 111 00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:31.280 like it 112 00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:33.919 is to say i'm not into it i'm not into 113 00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:34.639 labels 114 00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:36.319 and i've heard this phrase many times 115 00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:39.360 when there is a movie scene where 116 00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:42.720 a guy asks a girl to go out the girl 117 00:03:42.720 --> 00:03:43.120 says 118 00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:45.040 i'm not really into you i'm sorry i 119 00:03:45.040 --> 00:03:46.400 don't want to date you 120 00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:48.400 that means that i don't really like you 121 00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:50.080 i'm sorry i don't want to date you 122 00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:53.040 i'm not into you i'm not fond of it 123 00:03:53.040 --> 00:03:54.319 another great phrase 124 00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:56.000 i'll tell you my story where i can use 125 00:03:56.000 --> 00:03:58.720 this phrase uh when i was 17 years old i 126 00:03:58.720 --> 00:03:59.120 went 127 00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:01.439 into a theme park in saint petersburg 128 00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:03.360 and it was an amazing roller coaster 129 00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:05.680 and i was super excited to be on it but 130 00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:06.640 then 131 00:04:06.640 --> 00:04:08.959 there was this safety thing that was on 132 00:04:08.959 --> 00:04:10.159 top of me 133 00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:12.480 and you go up and down and it's supposed 134 00:04:12.480 --> 00:04:13.439 to protect you 135 00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:15.280 and it flipped up when we were on the 136 00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:17.759 roller coaster and i was so so scared so 137 00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:19.839 what i could do i could actually drag it 138 00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:22.560 back to me uh so at least i could feel 139 00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:23.279 safe 140 00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:26.720 uh but i was so so scared i was only 17 141 00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:28.479 years old and i've heard of people 142 00:04:28.479 --> 00:04:30.800 getting injured on such roller coasters 143 00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:31.520 so 144 00:04:31.520 --> 00:04:34.080 since then i'm not really fond of theme 145 00:04:34.080 --> 00:04:34.720 parks 146 00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:37.120 and whenever i go to a theme park with 147 00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:38.400 my friends 148 00:04:38.400 --> 00:04:40.639 i just don't take any roller coasters i 149 00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:42.000 just wash them maybe make 150 00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:44.720 a vlog take some pictures for instagram 151 00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:46.720 but i'm no longer fond of roller 152 00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:48.080 coasters because uh 153 00:04:48.080 --> 00:04:51.040 i think i've got this trauma now and i 154 00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:52.479 just don't want to risk my life 155 00:04:52.479 --> 00:04:54.639 i'm not really fond of roller coasters 156 00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:56.160 i'm not too fond of that name 157 00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:57.919 i'm not crazy about it it's another 158 00:04:57.919 --> 00:05:00.639 phrase and i would use it when i 159 00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:03.360 go out for lunch and somebody would tell 160 00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:04.240 me like hey 161 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:07.120 do you want to grab sushi and like yeah 162 00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:07.839 we could 163 00:05:07.839 --> 00:05:10.720 i'm not crazy about it which means i'm 164 00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:11.279 okay 165 00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:13.600 it's not like a strong phrase i'm okay 166 00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:15.520 we could grab sushi but i'm not really 167 00:05:15.520 --> 00:05:17.440 crazy about it maybe we could do 168 00:05:17.440 --> 00:05:20.320 pasta because i'm crazy about italian 169 00:05:20.320 --> 00:05:21.120 food 170 00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:24.400 that's an example i'm not crazy about it 171 00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:27.759 it's not for me another phrase 172 00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:30.160 for example uh somebody tells you hey 173

husband loves to go to movie theaters 186 00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:04.560 and i just think that i can watch 187 00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:06.240 everything at home 188 00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:09.279 once it's out and i just don't see the 189 00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:11.039 point of going to movie theaters 190 00:06:11.039 --> 00:06:12.160 especially 191 00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:14.080 if the movie is a little weird we went 192 00:06:14.080 --> 00:06:16.400 to see once upon a time in hollywood 193 00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:18.880 and i wish i actually read a story 194 00:06:18.880 --> 00:06:20.400 before i watched it i wish 195 00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:21.839 i could watch it at home so i could 196 00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:24.160 pause and read wikipedia 197 00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:27.279 but we went to a movie theater and i 198 00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:28.960 just had to watch it and i didn't really 199 00:06:28.960 --> 00:06:29.520 get it 200 00:06:29.520 --> 00:06:32.479 the time i watched

--> 00:06:49.360 saturday night 211 00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:51.680 and you decide to stay home and learn a 212 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:52.560 language 213 00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:55.039 so you tell your friends sorry guys i'll 214 00:06:55.039 --> 00:06:55.599 pass 215 00:06:55.599 --> 00:06:57.440 well probably if you're in america i 216 00:06:57.440 --> 00:06:58.960 wouldn't pass because then you can 217 00:06:58.960 --> 00:07:00.479 interact with native speakers 218 00:07:00.479 --> 00:07:02.960 but for the learning purposes you're 219 00:07:02.960 --> 00:07:04.160 going to say alpha 220 00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:06.720 so i'll pass means you're not really 221 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:08.479 interested you don't like the idea of 222 00:07:08.479 --> 00:07:10.240 going somewhere you like the idea of 223 00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:10.960 staying at home 224 00:07:10.960 --> 00:07:15.120 and learning a language i'll pass 225 00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:17.840 thanks the next phrase is really direct 226 00:07:17.840 --> 00:07:19.520 and it's really straightforward 227 00:07:19.520 --> 00:07:21.599 and this isn't a phrase that you would 228 00:07:21.599 --> 00:07:23.199 use in a business meeting or 229 00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:25.039 in a formal interaction this is 230 00:07:25.039 --> 00:07:26.639 something that you would use with the 231 00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:28.000 really close friends 232 00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:29.520 like somebody is trying to kiss you on 233 00:07:29.520 --> 00:07:31.440 the cheek and you can tell i can't stand 234 00:07:31.440 --> 00:07:31.759 it 235 00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:33.360 i don't like people kissing me all the 236 00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:34.800 time i can't stand 237 00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:36.720 people kissing me all the time so the 238 00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:39.039 phrase is i can't stand it again it's 239 00:07:39.039 --> 00:07:41.199 really strong i wouldn't use it in a 240 00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:43.039 business environment i wouldn't use it 241 00:07:43.039 --> 00:07:43.840 in a class 242 00:07:43.840 --> 00:07:46.000 i would only use it with your close 243 00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:48.400 friends i can't stand it anymore 244 00:07:48.400 --> 00:07:52.319 another strong phrase it drives me crazy 245 00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:55.360 and when you say it with intonation that 246 00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:56.879 i've used right now people are going to 247 00:07:56.879 --> 00:07:57.840 understand that 248 00:07:57.840 --> 00:08:00.639 you hate something it's even stronger 249 00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:02.000 than i don't like it it's 250 00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.080 actually hating the weather in the 251 00:08:04.080 --> 00:08:05.919 winter drives me crazy 252 00:08:05.919 --> 00:08:09.120 i hate snow i hate that it's always dark 253 00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:12.479 i feel depressed winter drives me crazy 254 00:08:12.479 --> 00:08:15.440 that just drives me crazy the next race 255 00:08:15.440 --> 00:08:15.759 is 256 00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:19.360 a little british it's not my cup of tea 257 00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:21.120 i'm losing my british accent i used to 258 00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:24.080 mimic it so close to reality but now 259 00:08:24.080 --> 00:08:26.160 just gone going to the uk this summer so 260 00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:27.360 hopefully i'll get it back 261 00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:30.639 but yeah it's not my cup of tea um 262 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:33.599 it's a way to say that again you don't 263 00:08:33.599 --> 00:08:34.800 like it 264 00:08:34.800 --> 00:08:37.599 it's just an expression that a lot of 265 00:08:37.599 --> 00:08:39.039 people use in great britain 266 00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:41.279 but i've also heard it in america yeah 267 00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:42.800 it's not my cup of tea but 268 00:08:42.800 --> 00:08:45.120 you know and the last but not the least 269 00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:46.640 is very american 270 00:08:46.640 --> 00:08:49.279 it's not my thing it's not my thing you 271 00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:49.920 know 272 00:08:49.920 --> 00:08:52.480 you can use it for almost anything if 273 00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:54.080 somebody is asking you what kind of 274 00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:55.120 sport do you do 275 00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:57.760 you say it's not my thing i don't do 276 00:08:57.760 --> 00:08:58.640 sports at all 277 00:08:58.640 --> 00:09:02.399 i

have a reflex 281 00:09:10.800 --> 00:09:13.679 to answer i'm fine thank you this was 282 00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:14.720 like your first 283 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:16.640 english class at school right but the 284 00:09:16.640 --> 00:09:18.958 thing is what we've learned at school 285 00:09:18.958 --> 00:09:22.000 is not always applicable in real life 286 00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:24.720 in america for example if you're asked 287 00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:25.920 how are you 288 00:09:25.920 --> 00:09:28.240 in the majority of cases people don't 289 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:29.200 care 290 00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:31.920 which means that your answer should 291 00:09:31.920 --> 00:09:34.720 depend on whether people care or not 292 00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:37.200 and i'm fine thank you is really well 293 00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:37.839 kind of 294 00:09:37.839 --> 00:09:40.240 old-fashioned so today i'm going to 295 00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:41.120 teach you 296 00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:44.080 how to reply to how are you in different 297 00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:44.958 situations 298 00:09:44.958 --> 00:09:47.040 and with different people so if you're 299 00:09:47.040 --> 00:09:48.958 interested continue watching 300 00:09:48.958 --> 00:09:52.080 first let's look at some quick phrases 301 00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:53.200 that you can use 302 00:09:53.200 --> 00:09:54.958 you would use those phrases with 303 00:09:54.958 --> 00:09:56.240 acquaintances or 304 00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.320 strangers what does it mean when you 305 00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:00.000 come to a grocery store 306 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:03.120 and the cashier asks you how are you 307 00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:06.399 this is a stranger and you don't want to 308 00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:08.480 tell them that you know everything is 309 00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:09.920 bad and you have to pay 310 00:10:09.920 --> 00:10:12.160 this college bill or whatever or 311 00:10:12.160 --> 00:10:14.399 somebody sitting next to you in a bus 312 00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:16.720 or you're riding in an elevator like i 313 00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:18.000 ride in an elevator every 314 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.000 day i meet my neighbors and they always 315 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.240 how are you it doesn't mean i'm really 316 00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:23.440 interested how am i 317 00:10:23.440 --> 00:10:25.519 they just want to start a conversation 318 00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:26.800 those people are also 319 00:10:26.800 --> 00:10:29.679 strangers actually in the united states 320 00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:30.880 when people ask you how 321 00:10:30.880 --> 00:10:34.559 are you sometimes it's equal to hello 322 00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:37.040 and it's not really a question so in 323 00:10:37.040 --> 00:10:38.160 this situation 324 00:10:38.160 --> 00:10:40.160 it's better to give a short answer 325 00:10:40.160 --> 00:10:41.279 because you don't want to be too 326 00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.120 daunting with explaining what's going on 327 00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:43.839 in your life 328 00:10:43.839 --> 00:10:46.880 the first short answer is not bad 329 00:10:46.880 --> 00:10:49.600 which depending on your intonation can 330 00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:51.839 be either positive or neutral 331 00:10:51.839 --> 00:10:54.000 so if you say not bad that means 332 00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:55.360 everything is okay 333 00:10:55.360 --> 00:10:58.078 everything is going well you can all say 334 00:10:58.078 --> 00:10:59.040 not bad 335 00:10:59.040 --> 00:11:02.160 which is neutral or not bad this is 336 00:11:02.160 --> 00:11:03.040 positive 337 00:11:03.040 --> 00:11:05.679 not bad the next phrase you can say all 338 00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:06.640 right 339 00:11:06.640 --> 00:11:09.200 again here it means you're fine and 340 00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:11.519 everything depends on your intonation 341 00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:15.360 all right it's like okay neutral 342 00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:18.240 everything's all right positive you know 343 00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:20.000 you're enjoying your life 344 00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:23.679 i know right the next thing you can say 345 00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:26.880 good i'm good and sometimes 346 00:11:26.880 --> 00:11:28.399 you think that saying i'm good is 347 00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:30.399 grammatically incorrect 348 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:32.720 because when we're talking about actions 349 00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:34.000 um we 350 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:36.320 normally use adverbs instead of 351 00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:37.920 adjectives so for example 352 00:11:37.920 --> 00:11:40.958 saying we danced good is wrong 353 00:11:40.958 --> 00:11:44.240 we danced well is better but because in 354 00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:45.920 this sentence you're actually saying 355 00:11:45.920 --> 00:11:49.040 i am good or you can just say good 356 00:11:49.040 --> 00:11:51.120 it makes it grammatically correct so 357 00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:52.240 don't worry about it 358 00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:55.040 i'm good is it completely grammatically 359 00:11:55.040 --> 00:11:56.078 correct phrase 360 00:11:56.078 --> 00:11:57.200 and it means that you're happy 361 00:11:57.200 --> 00:11:59.519 everything is going well in your life so 362 00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:02.240 okay this is the last answer that i'm 363 00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:02.800 giving you 364 00:12:02.800 --> 00:12:05.600 when you reply to strangers so let's 365 00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:06.399 repeat them 366 00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:09.519 not bad all right good very short kind 367 00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:10.480 of informal 368 00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:13.120 and you don't waste other people's time 369 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:14.559 because you remember that 370 00:12:14.559 --> 00:12:17.040 how are you is just a way of saying 371 00:12:17.040 --> 00:12:18.559 hello and being polite 372 00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:21.200 but if you're talking to your friends if 373 00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:23.440 you're talking to your family members 374 00:12:23.440 --> 00:12:25.040 if you're talking to somebody who's 375 00:12:25.040 --> 00:12:27.279 really close it's actually impolite to 376 00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:28.639 just tell them like eh 377 00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:31.600 i'm okay whatever i'm good you want to 378 00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:33.040 be more explicit 379 00:12:33.040 --> 00:12:35.200 you want to go into details because 380 00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:36.320 these people actually 381 00:12:36.320 --> 00:12:38.160 care about you and they want to know 382 00:12:38.160 --> 00:12:39.760 what's going on in your life 383 00:12:39.760 --> 00:12:43.279 you can say i'm exhausted 384 00:12:43.279 --> 00:12:45.040 you're really tired there are a lot of 385 00:12:45.040 --> 00:12:46.720 things going on at work 386 00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:49.360 and you really want to complain then do 387 00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:51.200 it that's a perfect situation to 388 00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:52.800 complain because you're talking to your 389 00:12:52.800 --> 00:12:53.440 friends 390 00:12:53.440 --> 00:12:56.720 i'm exhausted if you tell your friend 391 00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:58.639 that you're okay 392 00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:00.639 sometimes if he's really worried about 393 00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:02.078 you he might ask you 394 00:13:02.078 --> 00:13:04.078 just okay and this would be an 395 00:13:04.078 --> 00:13:06.000 appropriate follow-up question because 396 00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:07.920 they might notice that something is not 397 00:13:07.920 --> 00:13:10.160 well that something's

00:16:55.680 start with 506 00:16:55.680 --> 00:16:58.880 formal ways a very formal way to ask 507 00:16:58.880 --> 00:17:00.160 people for more information 508 00:17:00.160 --> 00:17:02.639 is very british british people say 509 00:17:02.639 --> 00:17:03.600 pardon 510 00:17:03.600 --> 00:17:07.199 pardon me pardon and when they say 511 00:17:07.199 --> 00:17:09.280 they mean that they didn't get what you 512 00:17:09.280 --> 00:17:11.280 were saying so you're supposed to repeat 513 00:17:11.280 --> 00:17:11.600 things 514 00:17:11.600 --> 00:17:14.720 you can also say sorry sorry what 515 00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:16.880 or excuse me so when you don't 516 00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:18.640 understand something you just say excuse 517 00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:19.439 me 518 00:17:19.439 --> 00:17:21.919 excuse me and with the intonation and 519 00:17:21.919 --> 00:17:23.600 maybe you show your ear people would 520 00:17:23.600 --> 00:17:25.119 understand that they need to repeat 521 00:17:25.119 --> 00:17:25.679 things 522 00:17:25.679 --> 00:17:28.640 the most formal way is i beg your pardon 523 00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:29.919 i beg your pardon 524 00:17:29.919 --> 00:17:31.679 which is also i'm trying to pronounce it 525 00:17:31.679 --> 00:17:33.440 with a british accent because i've never 526 00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:34.000 heard 527 00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:36.400 american people say i beg your pardon 528 00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:37.520 maybe they do 529 00:17:37.520 --> 00:17:40.160 but i've heard that a lot more often in 530 00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:41.600 great britain in london 531 00:17:41.600 --> 00:17:43.840 i beg your pardon there are also some 532 00:17:43.840 --> 00:17:45.679 certain phrases that would help you out 533 00:17:45.679 --> 00:17:46.720 in this situation 534 00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:49.919 you can say excuse me i didn't catch you 535 00:17:49.919 --> 00:17:52.880 could you repeat this again please or 536 00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:53.840 you can

00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:03.280 even more polite you could say 541 00:18:03.280 --> 00:18:06.000 could you repeat please i'm sorry could 542 00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:06.960 you repeat the question 543 00:18:06.960 --> 00:18:08.320 if somebody's saying a word or 544 00:18:08.320 --> 00:18:10.000 expression that you hear for the first 545 00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:11.280 time you can say 546 00:18:11.280 --> 00:18:13.440 excuse me i hear this word for the first 547 00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:14.320 time or 548 00:18:14.320 --> 00:18:16.480 this word is new for me could you 549 00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:17.840 explain what it means 550 00:18:17.840 --> 00:18:21.119 or you can say i'm sorry 551 00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:24.160 i'm not sure i understand what you mean 552 00:18:24.160 --> 00:18:26.960 by and then add this word for example i 553 00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:27.440 say 554 00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:30.000 i feel a little under the weather today 555 00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:30.799 and you're like 556 00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:32.799 under the weather feel under the weather 557 00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:33.840 and you can say 558 00:18:33.840 --> 00:18:37.440 i'm sorry what do you mean by saying 559 00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:39.119 under the weather what does that 560 00:18:39.119 --> 00:18:41.520 expression mean and i would go ahead and 561 00:18:41.520 --> 00:18:42.080 explain 562 00:18:42.080 --> 00:18:44.320 that i'm feeling a little sick today 563 00:18:44.320 --> 00:18:45.359 which is not true 564 00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:47.760 thankfully of course there are informal 565 00:18:47.760 --> 00:18:50.240 ways of asking people to repeat things 566 00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:53.440 but please make sure you maintain the 567 00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:54.640 right intonation 568 00:18:54.640 --> 00:18:56.240 because for example the phrase what did 569 00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:58.000 you say can be said 570 00:18:58.000 --> 00:19:01.039 in two different ways you can say what 571 00:19:01.039 --> 00:19:02.240 did you say 572 00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:04.320 what'd you say what and if you're 573 00:19:04.320 --> 00:19:05.919 chatting to a friend that is totally 574 00:19:05.919 --> 00:19:07.359 fine the friend would repeat 575 00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:09.760 but if you're talking to a stranger and 576 00:19:09.760 --> 00:19:12.160 you use the wrong intonation 577 00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:15.280 what did you just say what did you say 578 00:19:15.280 --> 00:19:18.000 that could be perceived as a way to 579 00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:18.640 start a 580 00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:20.320 fight so i wouldn't really use this 581 00:19:20.320 --> 00:19:22.480 phrase with that intonation 582 00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:26.799 another informal way is just to say huh 583 00:19:27.600 --> 00:19:29.119 people would understand that they need 584 00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:30.720 to repeat it's spelled like 585 00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:33.520 huh and you see that a lot in different 586 00:19:33.520 --> 00:19:35.520 texts or in different books 587 00:19:35.520 --> 00:19:37.760 that are informal americans love to 588 00:19:37.760 --> 00:19:40.400 contract words and instead of excuse me 589 00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:42.799 sometimes they just say excuse me excuse 590 00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:44.000 me 591 00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:45.679 excuse me so there is no in the 592 00:19:45.679 --> 00:19:48.000 beginning excuse me you can also say 593 00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:51.200 what was that for example somebody's 594 00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:53.119 telling you about things they're going 595 00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:54.799 to do tomorrow and you didn't catch what 596 00:19:54.799 --> 00:19:55.919 they were saying and 597 00:19:55.919 --> 00:19:57.679 you're like what was that and they're 598 00:19:57.679 --> 00:19:59.760 going to repeat what was that 599 00:19:59.760 --> 00:20:02.559 it was what the last phrase in this 600 00:20:02.559 --> 00:20:03.600 informal section 601 00:20:03.600 --> 00:20:06.159 is something that can be used when you 602 00:20:06.159 --> 00:20:07.840 were focused on a different thing for 603 00:20:07.840 --> 00:20:09.440 example you were reading a book 604 00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:11.600 or you were meditating and somebody 605 00:20:11.600 --> 00:20:12.960 started talking to you 606 00:20:12.960 --> 00:20:14.880 and you like you stopped editing you're 607 00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:17.038 like 608 00:20:17.679 --> 00:20:20.799 this is hmm if you spell it 609 00:20:20.799 --> 00:20:22.320 and this phrase would let people know 610 00:20:22.320 --> 00:20:23.840 that you didn't catch what they were 611 00:20:23.840 --> 00:20:24.320 saying 612 00:20:24.320 --> 00:20:26.480 let's talk about some slang phrases that 613 00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:27.919 would mean the same thing 614 00:20:27.919 --> 00:20:30.080 asking people to repeat information you 615 00:20:30.080 --> 00:20:31.440 can say come again 616 00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:34.880 come again very american very widely 617 00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:35.440 used 618 00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:38.400 come again you can also say pass that by 619 00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:39.520 me again 620 00:20:39.520 --> 00:20:42.480 which is not that widely used if you 621 00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:44.080 don't understand something and you're 622 00:20:44.080 --> 00:20:44.880 giving up 623 00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:46.880 you can just say i don't get it i'm 624 00:20:46.880 --> 00:20:48.880 sorry i don't get it i don't get it 625 00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:50.720 maybe you've been trying to understand 626 00:20:50.720 --> 00:20:52.799 that person several times and you 627 00:20:52.799 --> 00:20:54.960 tried saying excuse me and you tried 628 00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:56.240 saying i don't understand this 629 00:20:56.240 --> 00:20:58.240 expression and you try it saying 630 00:20:58.240 --> 00:21:00.480 what do you mean and you know at the end 631 00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:01.280 you're just 632 00:21:01.280 --> 00:21:03.280 giving up and you just say i don't think 633 00:21:03.280 --> 00:21:05.119 i get it and i wanted to wrap up this 634 00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:07.280 class with idioms and remember idioms 635 00:21:07.280 --> 00:21:09.039 are phrases that you cannot 636 00:21:09.039 --> 00:21:11.280 translate verbatim which means word to 637 00:21:11.280 --> 00:21:12.559 word because if you 638 00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:15.200 try to translate them word to word into 639 00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:16.320 your own language 640 00:21:16.320 --> 00:21:18.480 you're gonna get something that doesn't 641 00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:20.240 make any sense 642 00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:23.760 okay idioms this is all greek to me 643 00:21:23.760 --> 00:21:26.880 that means i don't understand a word 644 00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:30.240 i think our wires are crossed 645 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:32.000 i think maybe we got our wires crossed 646 00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:33.919 about tonight that's an idiom 647 00:21:33.919 --> 00:21:37.039 with the exact same meaning that was 648 00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:39.919 as clear as mud this actually makes 649 00:21:39.919 --> 00:21:40.640 sense because 650 00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:43.600 mud is not clear mud is dirty and if 651 00:21:43.600 --> 00:21:44.000 something 652 00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:46.720 is as clear as mud that means you can't 653 00:21:46.720 --> 00:21:47.359 see through 654 00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:49.280 it's non-transparent you don't 655 00:21:49.280 --> 00:21:50.720 understand i 656 00:21:50.720 --> 00:21:53.520 can't make heads or tails of what you're 657 00:21:53.520 --> 00:21:54.159 saying 658 00:21:54.159 --> 00:21:56.080 that's another idiom meaning i don't 659 00:21:56.080 --> 00:21:57.280 understand you 660 00:21:57.280 --> 00:22:00.400 everything you said is just a word salad 661 00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:02.159 this is an amazing phrase and i know 662 00:22:02.159 --> 00:22:03.679 some other languages have the same 663 00:22:03.679 --> 00:22:04.240 phrase 664 00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:07.760 i remember german language as 665 00:22:07.760 --> 00:22:10.880 which means i only hear railway station 666 00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:12.080 which means i don't understand 667 00:22:12.080 --> 00:22:15.119 anything i it sounds super weird to me 668 00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:16.960 so english language has the same phrase 669 00:22:16.960 --> 00:22:18.159 by the way if you're watching from 670 00:22:18.159 --> 00:22:19.520 germany comment down below 671 00:22:19.520 --> 00:22:21.520 uh which city

00:22:26.320 said is just 675 00:22:26.320 --> 00:22:29.280 a word salad saying i don't know all the 676 00:22:29.280 --> 00:22:29.600 time 677 00:22:29.600 --> 00:22:32.000 is really boring and there are amazing 678 00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:34.320 phrases used by native speakers 679 00:22:34.320 --> 00:22:36.240 that would help you replace this phrase 680 00:22:36.240 --> 00:22:37.359 and make your

00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:44.799 this video when somebody asks you about 685 00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:46.159 something you don't know 686 00:22:46.159 --> 00:22:48.640 you can reply that's a good question

--> 00:22:56.400 and we sent people to study abroad there 691 00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:58.559 were a lot of questions that came from 692 00:22:58.559 --> 00:22:59.440 our customers 693 00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:01.440 that i didn't know the answer to but if 694 00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:03.039 i just said i don't know 695 00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:05.840 i would sound maybe unprofessional 696 00:23:05.840 --> 00:23:08.080 because as a professional study abroad i 697 00:23:08.080 --> 00:23:10.320 had to no answer to that question 698 00:23:10.320 --> 00:23:12.960 and that might have sounded a little 699 00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:13.760 dismissive 700 00:23:13.760 --> 00:23:15.119 the client might have gotten an 701 00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:16.720 impression that i didn't want to help 702 00:23:16.720 --> 00:23:17.359 them 703 00:23:17.359 --> 00:23:19.919 so if you are working with customers if 704 00:23:19.919 --> 00:23:20.720 you are 705 00:23:20.720 --> 00:23:23.200 trying to show that you want to help the 706 00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:24.559 best response is 707 00:23:24.559 --> 00:23:26.640 something that i've just mentioned 708 00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:27.840 that's a good question 709 00:23:27.840 --> 00:23:30.880 i'll find out sometimes saying i don't 710 00:23:30.880 --> 00:23:31.600 know 711 00:23:31.600 --> 00:23:34.320 just stops the conversation and maybe 712 00:23:34.320 --> 00:23:36.720 that person who's asking you a question 713 00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:38.880 wants to continue talking to you and if 714 00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:40.480 you want to continue this friendly 715 00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:41.679 conversation 716 00:23:41.679 --> 00:23:44.320 you can say i have the exact same 717 00:23:44.320 --> 00:23:44.880 question 718 00:23:44.880 --> 00:23:46.720 i could ask you the same question for 719 00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:48.559 example your friend asks you 720 00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:50.880 when do you think the quarantine will be 721 00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:51.600 over 722 00:23:51.600 --> 00:23:54.159 when would we be able to freely travel 723 00:23:54.159 --> 00:23:56.400 and i know europeans are already able to 724 00:23:56.400 --> 00:23:56.960 do that 725 00:23:56.960 --> 00:23:58.799 and you can say i don't know because of 726 00:23:58.799 --> 00:23:59.919 course you don't know what's going to 727 00:23:59.919 --> 00:24:00.400 happen 728 00:24:00.400 --> 00:24:02.400 but if you want to continue conversation 729 00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:03.520 you can say 730 00:24:03.520 --> 00:24:06.480 i have the exact same question i had 731 00:24:06.480 --> 00:24:08.640 plans to go to europe this summer i had 732 00:24:08.640 --> 00:24:10.240 plans to study abroad 733 00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:12.240 and you know i don't want when this 734 00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:14.480 would be over i have my flights booked i 735 00:24:14.480 --> 00:24:15.840 have my hotel book 736 00:24:15.840 --> 00:24:17.919 and i'm just sitting here and waiting so 737 00:24:17.919 --> 00:24:19.520 instead of saying i don't know you would 738 00:24:19.520 --> 00:24:19.840 say 739 00:24:19.840 --> 00:24:22.240 i have the exact same question and this 740 00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:24.559 way the conversation would continue and 741 00:24:24.559 --> 00:24:26.000 you would sound friendlier 742 00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:28.400 another phrase is really conversational 743 00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:30.159 widely used by native speakers 744 00:24:30.159 --> 00:24:32.000 instead of saying i don't know you can 745 00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:35.520 say i have no idea i have no idea 746 00:24:35.520 --> 00:24:37.919 and another phrase that is little more 747 00:24:37.919 --> 00:24:40.320 advanced i would say i have no clue 748 00:24:40.320 --> 00:24:42.880 i have no clue where we are i have no 749 00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:43.679 clue 750 00:24:43.679 --> 00:24:46.320 is basically the same as i have no idea 751 00:24:46.320 --> 00:24:48.000 it just makes your speech a little 752 00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:48.720 different 753 00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:51.039 the next phrase is rhetorical it is a 754 00:24:51.039 --> 00:24:52.080 question that 755 00:24:52.080 --> 00:24:54.720 people don't expect an answer to so for 756 00:24:54.720 --> 00:24:56.400 example when somebody tells you 757 00:24:56.400 --> 00:24:58.240 do you know when the stores are going to 758 00:24:58.240 --> 00:24:59.440 open again 759 00:24:59.440 --> 00:25:02.960 you can say who knows who knows 760 00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:04.640 and the meaning is the same i don't have 761 00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:07.039 a clue i don't know 762 00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:09.279 who knows the next phrase is really 763 00:25:09.279 --> 00:25:10.400 informal uh 764 00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:12.400 used by teenagers used by a lot of 765 00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:14.240 people it sounds like i don't know 766 00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:16.559 but it's a faster version of it so it's 767 00:25:16.559 --> 00:25:17.359 like dunno 768 00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:19.600 i don't know and it's spelled with five 769 00:25:19.600 --> 00:25:20.400 letters only 770 00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:22.880 dunno do you know when they serve mech 771 00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:24.400 breakfast in mcdonald's 772 00:25:24.400 --> 00:25:28.240 dunno so this is a fast phrase saving as 773 00:25:28.240 --> 00:25:30.080 i don't know and it's really widespread 774 00:25:30.080 --> 00:25:31.279 among teenagers 775 00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:34.480 the next phrase is why don't we ask 776 00:25:34.480 --> 00:25:37.440 and then you insert somebody's name hey 777 00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:38.799 why don't we ask her 778 00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:41.119 for example you have this zoom meeting 779 00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:42.799 because everything is happening in zoom 780 00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:44.320 right now you have this zoom meeting 781 00:25:44.320 --> 00:25:46.000 with your colleagues or with other 782 00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:47.520 students from your group 783 00:25:47.520 --> 00:25:49.840 and somebody raises a question when do 784 00:25:49.840 --> 00:25:51.359 you think we should organize the next 785 00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:51.919 meeting 786 00:25:51.919 --> 00:25:53.760 if they address this question to you you 787 00:25:53.760 --> 00:25:55.279 can say why don't we 788 00:25:55.279 --> 00:25:58.640 ask ben because ben is the one who's 789 00:25:58.640 --> 00:26:00.799 responsible for organizing all of the 790 00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:02.080 meetings for a group 791 00:26:02.080 --> 00:26:04.559 and this way you are owning the 792 00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:06.400 conversation instead of saying i don't 793 00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:06.960 know 794 00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:08.960 you are actually redirecting the 795 00:26:08.960 --> 00:26:10.559 question to another person 796 00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:12.480 and you're kind of staying in charge 797 00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:13.760 which is a great thing 798 00:26:13.760 --> 00:26:15.679 especially in a group it's good when 799 00:26:15.679 --> 00:26:18.159 somebody is navigating the questions 800 00:26:18.159 --> 00:26:20.720 so you can say why don't we ask ben ben 801 00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:22.159 when do you think we should organize the 802 00:26:22.159 --> 00:26:23.039 next meeting 803 00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:25.520 your guess is as good as mine your guess 804 00:26:25.520 --> 00:26:27.279 is as good as mine 805 00:26:27.279 --> 00:26:29.679 this phrase is oh my god it's beautiful 806 00:26:29.679 --> 00:26:30.720 right i would say 807 00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:33.279 i would use it if i was making a movie 808 00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:35.840 if i was making a very beautiful vlog 809 00:26:35.840 --> 00:26:37.279 i would say instead of saying i don't 810 00:26:37.279 --> 00:26:39.520 know i would say your guess is as good 811 00:26:39.520 --> 00:26:40.320 as mine 812 00:26:40.320 --> 00:26:42.720 that means that i have no idea as well i 813 00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:43.760 have no 814 00:26:43.760 --> 00:26:46.480 answer to your question and i could only 815 00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:46.880 guess 816 00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:49.520 and my guess would be as good as yours 817 00:26:49.520 --> 00:26:52.080 and your guess would be as good as mine 818 00:26:52.080 --> 00:26:54.400 if you're really annoyed by somebody's 819 00:26:54.400 --> 00:26:55.440 question 820 00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:57.200 somebody has been asking you this 821 00:26:57.200 --> 00:26:58.880 question every single day 822 00:26:58.880 --> 00:27:02.400 you know babies or kids they love to ask 823 00:27:02.400 --> 00:27:03.919 the same question for example when 824 00:27:03.919 --> 00:27:05.119 you're in the airplane and you're 825 00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:06.240 waiting to take off 826 00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:07.760 the kids would be like when would we 827 00:27:07.760 --> 00:27:09.119 take off when would we take out i 828 00:27:09.119 -->
