15 questions that you should know so

0:10

these are 15 questions that not

0:11

necessarily

0:13

you need to

0:14

know how to ask them perhaps you know

0:16

some of the questions already but you

0:17

will probably also hear these questions

0:19

as well so we'll practice a few

0:21

different answers for these questions

0:23

too

0:24

so

0:24

let's get started

0:26

do you like american food

0:28

the first question is do you like

0:29

american food you will probably be asked

0:32

this question do you like american food

0:34

you can either say yes or no or you can

0:37

give a specific example someone says do

0:39

you like american food yes i love philly

0:41

cheesesteaks i would recommend saying

0:44

yes or a little

0:46

or

0:47

or or you can just say i don't know what

0:49

do you recommend

0:50

have you been to the united states the

0:52

next question is have you been to the

0:54

united states have you been to the

0:55

united states so someone asks you have

0:57

you been to the united states you should

0:59

reply with either yes i have or no i

1:02

haven't or maybe no i haven't yet but i

1:06

want to when you want to ask someone

1:08

this question you can say have you been

1:09

to japan have you been to egypt have you

1:11

been to china whatever you can use your

1:14

own country when you ask this question

1:16

how are you how are you when someone

1:18

asks how are you

1:19

don't say i'm fine thank you and you

1:22

please don't say that please say

1:24

something more natural like good

1:27

great i'm good how are you something

1:29

like that is much better than i'm fine

1:32

thank you and you be a little more

1:33

genuine in your reply also when you ask

1:36

this question maybe one point to help

1:37

you sound a little more natural when you

1:39

ask someone else don't like try to say

1:41

how are you how are you instead of how

1:43

are you or

1:45

uh and make make sure your intonation is

1:46

correct i've had a few people ask me uh

1:49

how are you like a little too

1:52

yeah with this question or like

1:54

how are you but how are you should be

1:57

the intonation with this how are you how

1:59

are you is a little bit more natural how

2:02

long have you been studying english how

2:04

long have you been studying english how

2:06

long have you been studying english

2:08

great question to know the answer to

2:10

your answer should be i have been

2:12

studying english for blah blah blah

2:14

years or blah blah blah months or more

2:16

weeks but if that's too much for you you

2:19

can just use the time how long have you

2:21

been studying english six years how long

2:23

have you been studying english two

2:24

months so just pick the time uh if if

2:27

the whole sentence is quite long for you

2:29

how old are you we don't really go

2:31

around asking people how old they are

2:33

like just

2:34

the first time you meet them necessarily

2:36

especially uh if they're older much

2:38

older than you like uh in particular

2:40

it's sometimes considered rude to ask

2:43

especially women uh how old they are so

2:45

just be careful with this question but

2:46

if you're about the same age group um

2:48

you know maybe you're at an event or a

2:50

party or something and you just want to

2:51

check how old the other person is you

2:53

can use this phrase when you reply to

2:55

this just say

2:56

uh i'm plus the number

2:58

to make a really simple response so how

3:00

old are you i'm 15. how old are you i'm

3:03

42. whatever the answer is just stick

3:06

i'm in front of it not i but i'm i am

3:09

but use the contracted form to sound

3:11

more natural i'm number if you want to

3:13

make a full sentence you can say i'm

3:15

number years old don't forget that s in

3:18

years i'm

3:20

a million years old what did you say

3:23

what did you say if you couldn't quite

3:25

hear something that someone else said

3:27

you can use this question to confirm

3:28

sorry what did you say it's a little

3:30

nicer than just saying what

3:32

what did you say or what did you just

3:35

say sorry what did you say i couldn't

3:37

hear you

3:38

what's this

3:39

what's this when you don't know what

3:41

something is what's this when you're out

3:43

for dinner you're out for lunch or

3:45

something and you find a new food or you

3:47

just you're curious just say what's this

3:49

to reply to this question just say it's

3:51

blah blah blah what's your name what's

3:54

your name of course you should know how

3:56

to ask this question and how to answer

3:58

this question what's your name is a

4:00

little more natural than what is your

4:02

name

4:03

again contracted form will help you

4:04

sound much more natural so what's your

4:06

name someone asks you you can just give

4:08

your name alicia that's fine you can say

4:11

alicia you can say i'm alicia that's

4:13

fine too you can say my name is or my

4:16

name's alicia

4:19

either any of those are fine in a more

4:21

formal situation a business situation i

4:23

would i would use my name is blah blah

4:26

blah while i shake hands or something

4:28

what's your phone number the next one is

4:30

what's your phone number i would not ask

4:32

this question right away like maybe

4:34

you've met the person a few times but

4:36

you'd like to contact them whether it's

4:37

because you're romantically interested

4:39

in them or because you want to be better

4:40

friends with them but just

4:43

if you meet someone for the first time

4:45

and you're like what's your phone number

4:47

it's like a little

4:49

it's a little too much so use this

4:51

question after you've met the person a

4:53

few times and you know you want to

4:54

become better friends when you want to

4:56

give your phone number just say it's and

4:58

the number that's fine just it's blah

5:00

blah blah or my phone number is blah

5:03

blah blah with the number 555-100526

5:08

when is your birthday so maybe you want

5:10

to plan a birthday party for example or

5:11

it's just another fun question the first

5:13

time you meet someone when is your

5:14

birthday so when you want to tell

5:16

someone your birthday just give the

5:18

month and the date

5:20

january 15th august

5:23

42nd

5:24

that's a real day if you want to make a

5:26

full sentence you can say my birthday is

5:29

month date

5:30

where are you from the next word the

5:32

next question is where are you from this

5:35

can refer to your country or your city

5:37

but i feel like probably more stuff and

5:39

it refers to your country so where are

5:41

you from your answer should be i'm from

5:44

place i'm from china i'm from japan i'm

5:46

from vietnam i'm from america whatever

5:49

i'm from

5:51

where did you learn english the next

5:53

question is where did you learn english

5:55

where did you learn english if you're

5:57

speaking great english you can say i

5:59

learned english at englishclass101.com

6:02

because you did because you're watching

6:04

now anyway where did you learn english

6:08

in this case in the case of like these

6:09

videos i learned english online or i

6:11

6:15

englishclass101.com for example if you

6:19

6:20

say i learned english at university or i

6:24

learned english from my friends perhaps

6:26

where do you live where do you live

6:29

depending on the situation where you're

6:30

asked this this can mean your country

6:32

like

6:33

i live in america i live in china

6:35

sometimes it's about the place in the

6:37

city where you live sometimes it's about

6:39

the country where you live so you can

6:41

kind of feel i think which question

6:43

which type of question is being asked

6:44

where do you work where do you work is

6:47

talking about your job you can use the

6:50

pattern i work

at

6:53

company name or i work for

6:56

company name either is fine i work at

6:59

abc company i work for abc company

have answered with the wrong information

7:06

the other person will just ask you like

7:07

7:10

mean which company do you work for use

7:12

the force for this one

7:14

where is the bathroom where is the

7:16

bathroom very important question where

7:17

is the bathroom in american english

7:19

where is the bathroom or where is the

7:20

restroom is more common than where is

7:23

the toilet using the word toilet is a

7:25

little bit too direct in american

7:27

english so i recommend bathroom or

so let's go do you have any

11:36

recommendations the first phrase is do

you have any recommendations this is

11:41

great to use when you get to a

11:42

restaurant where you don't know what the

11:44

food is you don't know anything about

11:46

the local cuisine or you're just feeling

11:48

a little bit adventurous you can ask the

11:50

wait staff do you have any

11:51

recommendations how much is this how

11:54

much is this this is useful when you're

11:55

out shopping or when you're in a

11:57

restaurant and the price is not clearly

11:59

marked or something is not clear to you

12:02

so you can ask how much is this usually

12:05

when you point to something i would

12:07

recommend like pointing to the menu or

12:08

pointing to an item how much is this

12:11

i'd like this you can point to something

12:14

and say i'd like this

12:15

if you want to say i'd like

12:17

one for example i don't know you're

12:19

getting beer i'd like one of these if

12:23

however you're in a situation where you

12:24

can't point you can say i'd like 10 of

12:27

the blah blah blah i'd like 10 of the

12:30

blue t-shirts please can i try this on

12:34

is useful when you're shopping for

12:35

clothes so you find something that you'd

12:37

like to try just ask the staff can i try

12:40

this on you can just say i want to try

12:43

this on if you like do you speak english

12:46

you might get asked this phrase so you

12:48

should say if you're watching this video

12:50

you should probably say yes or you can

12:51

say yes a little if you're not feeling

12:54

very confident if you're watching this

12:55

video and you're understanding this part

12:57

and you say no then

13:00

things that's a little strange i have a

13:02

reservation usually the staff will greet

13:04

you and you can say i have a reservation

13:07

hello i have a reservation it's at seven

13:09

o'clock the name is alicia usually we

13:12

say the name is or it's under meaning

13:15

the reservation is under my name or um

13:18

it's for name or

you're from water may or may not

13:27

automatically be brought to your table

13:29

when you're at a restaurant if you would

13:31

like more water however you can say

13:33

water please to make it a little more

13:35

polite i would like wave at the wait

13:38

staff and say could i please have some

13:40

more water do you take credit cards do

13:42

you take credit cards in case you're not

13:44

sure if the shop that you're in will

13:47

accept credit cards or debit cards you

13:49

can ask them do you take credit cards so

13:52

it doesn't mean do you take meaning are

13:54

you going to take my card but this take

13:56

means do you accept credit cards this

13:59

isn't what i ordered so if you're at a

14:01

restaurant you order steak and you get

14:03

lobster instead you can look at it and

14:05

go ah this isn't what i ordered be

14:08

careful though say this politely if you

14:11

look at the wait staff and you say this

14:13

isn't what i ordered they're gonna be

14:15

like

14:16

i don't know just be a nice customer

14:18

excuse me but i don't think this is what

14:20

i ordered or this isn't what i ordered

14:23

can you please check could we have the

14:24

menu please if for some reason you don't

14:27

receive a menu when you come to the

14:29

table

14:30

you can again just wave at a member of

14:33

the staff and say could we have the menu

14:36

please could you give me a discount

14:38

could you give me a discount means i

14:40

would like a cheaper price essentially

14:42

it depends on which country you're in if

14:44

haggling or bargaining meaning uh

14:47

talking to the seller to try to reduce

14:49

the price my family didn't bargain we

14:51

didn't haggle so i don't haggle depends

14:53

on you and your culture but uh just yeah

14:56

just be be aware of the culture that

14:58

you're in and the place that you're in

14:59

before you ask this question do you have

15:01

any vegetarian dishes ah this is useful

15:04

some people

15:06

have specific eating requirements or

15:08

eating needs maybe food allergies for

15:10

example you can replace vegetarian with

15:13

the specific dietary requirement that

15:16

you have do you have any vegan dishes do

15:18

you have any gluten free dishes do you

15:20

have any low fat dishes do you have any

15:22

low carb dishes do you have any fish

could you take a picture of me please

15:30

if you are in a location where you would

15:32

like to take a picture but you don't

15:34

want to do a selfie or you don't have a

15:36

selfie stick or whatever you want

15:38

someone else to take a picture of you a

15:40

stranger that you don't know you can ask

15:43

them could you take a picture of me

15:44

please or excuse me would you mind

15:47

taking a picture of me please i'm

15:49

allergic to blah blah blah if you have a

15:52

food allergy or even

15:54

an allergy to a medicine this is the

15:56

phrase you can use to explain that i'm

15:59

allergic to wheat or i can't eat wheat

16:02

for example

16:03

is the wi-fi free meaning can i use the

16:06

wi-fi free of charge keep in mind some

16:09

places have a

16:11

password that you have to ask the staff

16:13

for

16:14

so you can say is the wi-fi free if they

16:16

say yes you can then follow that up with

16:19

can i have the password i'd like to have

16:22

a non-smoking seat please so when you go

16:24

to a restaurant you have an option

16:26

between smoking and non-smoking sections

16:29

the staff will say smoking or

16:30

non-smoking you can say i'd like to have

16:32

a non-smoking seat please quite honestly

16:35

though the most natural response is just

16:37

to say non-smoking could i get a map

16:40

maybe it's a map of the subway system

16:43

for the city that you're in or maybe

target language in this guide you'll

25:44

discover the top seven ways to practice

25:46

speaking on your own with our lessons

25:49

let's begin

25:50

number one shadowing

25:52

shadowing is a proven learning technique

25:55

where all you do is repeat what you hear

25:57

in order to practice speaking

25:59

so access any audio or video lesson on

26:02

the site and press the play button to

26:04

start

26:06

then as you listen or watch just repeat

26:08

the conversations or even easier read

26:11

along out loud with the dialogue section

26:14

the script is right there in front of

26:15

you with our lessons you can master

26:18

entire conversations just like that

26:21

number two read out loud

26:23

i just mentioned it but reading out loud

26:25

is another powerful tactic and deserves

26:27

its own mention

26:29

with every lesson you get written

26:31

transcripts and translations

26:34

so as you play the lesson read the

26:36

dialogue out loud as you hear it why by

26:40

reading out loud you're also practicing

26:42

your speaking skills

26:43

you can do this with the lesson notes

26:46

the lesson transcript

26:48

or the dialogue tool

26:50

with the dialogue tool you can listen to

26:52

each line again and again

26:55

and repeat out loud until you master

26:57

them all

26:58

number three speed up your reading to

27:01

speed up your speaking being able to

27:03

speak without thinking is a sign of

27:04

language mastery if you're talking to a

27:07

native and can respond quickly they'll

27:09

assume that you're fairly fluent how can

27:11

you do this when you read out loud try

27:14

increasing your speed a little bit every

27:16

time

27:17

so start by reading with a dialogue tool

27:20

if you're like most learners you'll read

27:22

the first line slowly that's because

27:25

you're still getting used to the words

27:27

which is okay

27:28

re-read it on your second try you know

27:31

most of the words and you'll read a

27:33

little faster

27:34

re-read it again on your third try

27:37

you'll be even faster at a native

27:38

speaker's speed and being able to read

27:41

these phrases out loud and fast will

27:43

help you speak fast

27:45

number four record and compare yourself

27:48

with native speakers in order to sound

27:50

like a native speaker you must imitate

27:52

native speakers so here's how access the

27:55

voice recorder

27:57

which is in the dialog study tool in

27:59

every lesson

28:00

click on the microphone icon

28:03

listen to the native speaker's audio

28:06

and then record yourself

28:09

you can then compare the two recordings

28:11

side by side and practice and try again

28:14

and again until you perfect your

28:16

pronunciation

28:18
