5 MOST USEFUL English expressions that you didn’t learn at school!


Studying English for a long time, you know that you’re good at it, but when you visit an English speaking country, it looks like this.
I know my English is good. Why I do not understand you and you do not understand you or you back there.
I do not understand you. Good. We have a few English words
you probably did not learn in school, but we use them all the time.
So here are 5 really useful, common English expressions.
Number one is “NOT FUSSED” and “not bothered”. What does it mean?
You want to go to dinner and your friend says, “What do you want to give for dinner? Italian food, Thai food?
What kind of food and you want to say,
Everything sounds great. This is good. This is good. This is good. None of this do not prefer. You say:
“I AM NOT FUSSED” usually aliased as “NOT FUSSED”.
Pronunciation, this sounds like a “T, FAST”
No “FASED”, no.
So “FUSSED NOT, NOT FASSED” where you want to go? “NOT FUSSED” or
“Not bothered, BORTHERED NOT, NOT FUSSED.” This is super common way of saying: “None of the preferred,
I AGREE with everything NAVRHNEŠ “Personally, I’m terribly indecisive,
so I use this term all the time. “WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GO?” “I AM NOT FUSSED.” “WHERE YOU WANT TO GO TODAY ALI?”
“I am not bothered.” “You did not help.”
“HMM” This is basically every conversation,
I have with my friends. Number two is “FAIR ENOUGH” Be careful not to end “R”.
Recall that binds British English “R”
So this final “R” is bound to the following word: “FAIR ENOUGH, ENOUGH FAIR”
Say it with me: “FAIR ENOUGH.” When to use it? When we say, “That is acceptable. That’s okay.
I accept it, I’m fine. “
Do you have a birthday party, but one of your friends can not come. Why? Because it has to work. Yes, I know it’s wrong, but
you do it because you will not be angry, have to work so your answer will be:
“That is FAIR ENOUGH. Have to work. I understand. HMM”
The whole sentence reads: “THAT IS FAIR ENOUGH,” but most often omitted: “THAT”
“YOU HAVE TO WORK? FAIR ENOUGH.”
So when arguing this is a great way to end the discussion if you do not want it to continue.
Perhaps you are someone different views on religion, politics,
anything about what you want to stop discussing. For example: “I like Trump”
Very simply you can say:
“You like Trump … FAIR ENOUGH”
This ends the discussion because you essentially say, “well, this is your opinion, AGAIN THIS IS MY OPINION,
TY not change mine, I will NOT change yours, let’s END … DONE ‘
Next up is “I SUPPOSE SO”, usually omit the “I”
say only: “SUPPOSE SO” but during the interview
Speaking quickly so that it reads: “STARTING SOU” “YEAH, SO SUPPOSE,” but what does it really mean?
The first meaning is when you agree to do something and say, “Hmm,
Why not, OK, fine. “
For example,
a little boy says to his mother: “You can put some ice cream, Mom?” A mom wants to say:
“YEAH WHY NOT?
Yeah, I SUPPOSE Sat “Maybe it absolutely does not want to, but sees no reason why not to buy it.
“WHY NOT?”
Remember that agree with something, so it can be when someone says something:
“OHH, I THINK THAT IT’S ZOMBIE.”, And you want to say, “Ah, yes I think it is true. I think you’re right.” You say:
“Hmm. Yes, SUPPOSE SO, it looks like a zombie.” Remember pronunciation, a “U” usually weakens more like:
“Triggers”
“Triggers”
“SO shutter”, so the next is “I AM AFRAID …
… BLA … BLA … BLA “remember that” I AM AFRAID “means:” I’m afraid “
but in another context, it can be used as: “Sorry, but … BLA … BLA …”
so that I can refuse or something that I can zdělit some information or a message that is bad.
When someone invites you somewhere, “Can you come to my party?”, But you want to say: “Sorry, but I can not”
so you can say this:
“I AM AFRAID but I can not.” Pronunciation:
There is a schwa “AFRAID, AFRAID, I AM AFRAID, I AM AFRAID BUT
I can not. “
Pronunciation be very careful, “AAA”
say it: “Ah,
KÁÁÁNT, I AM
AFRAID, BUT I CAN NOT, I AM AFRAID, but I can not “
Of course, remember that in this context: “I AM AFRAID” means: “I’m sorry,” not “I am afraid.”
Now here we are missing the word:
“AFRAID THAT I CANT.” But most do not put it there.
Just say, “I AM AFRAID I CAN NOT, HE CANT, SHE CANT.”
Or much simpler and more universal: “I AM NOT AFRAID. I’m sorry, but no.”
“Are you going tonight EXIT? I AM NOT AFRAID.” Do you feel now “SUPER British”?
Well, after this fifth term should.
“MAY AS WELL” or “MIGHT AS WELL” This expression is very, very common. Surely you must know.
So, what does it mean? And how do we use it?
Arrive at the party appalling. There is one person
you do not like even the music is terrible and you think: “OHH, IF I
Stayed home, it would be it better or as good as here. “
You can then use this:
“I MIGHT AS WELL HAVE stayed at home.”
Pronunciation:
“I MIGHT AS WELL, MIGHT AS WELL,” say, “MIGHT AS WELL, I MIGHT AS WELL.”
Grammar: “HAVE stayed,” is perfect, because it’s a story in the past,
which lasts until today. So perfect tense: “HAVE Stayed”
Of course you can say: “I MAY AS WELL, AS WELL MAY HAVE stayed at home.”
This would also be a response to the proposal, if you want to say, “Well,
There is nothing better what to do. “Then, it can also be used.
“I miss home?”
He can say: “Yes MIGHT AS WELL.” This is the short version. What is the length?
“WE MIGHT AS WELL GO HOME”
Note: In the first case, we said: “I MIGHT AS WELL HAVE Stayed AT HOME”
“HAVE stayed” because it was an event in the past, that was better.
This action is in the future.
“MIGHT AS WELL GO HOME” in the future.
There is no “HAVE” “MIGHT AS WELL GO
HOME. “And this will not change the verb is always in the infinitive.
Use only in meaning, if there is nothing better. Not in the sense: “WOW
There is nothing better I could do. “Thus it was mzšleno. I thought it this way:
“Well, there is nothing better what could DO DELIVER VYMISLET can do nothing.”
Thus. So be careful how you use it. Try to use these expressions in the comments or in normal life.
The only way to learn it. See you at the next lesson. See you soon.
