Mini English Lesson - Daily Conversation
I wanted to help some
people with some common mistakes in daily conversation. 1️⃣"How's it going?"
-I never say "How are you?" I almost always use this expression outside of professional situations.
-The answer is NEVER "I'm fine thank you and you
?" The answer should be a STORY.
"How's it going?"
"I'm tired because I couldn't sleep well last night.
Or
2️⃣" It's going pretty well. I'm having a good day. How about you? "
" What else...? "
-I use this question a lot when asking about someone's interests. It basically means: Tell me more.
"I was watching The Boys on Amazon Prime last night."
"Oh, cool, what else do you like to watch?"
Or
"I like to read books on the weekend"
3️⃣"Oh, me too. What else do you like to do?"
4️⃣"How did you meet?"
-I like using this question when asking about someone's significant other (boyfriend/girlfriend /husband/wife). It means : Where did you FIRST meet?
"Your wife is quite charming. How did you meet?"
"We met at work."
Or
"We met online."
