The ability to win time in a conversation is necessary not only for politics. For those who have just started learning a foreign language? this is also very important, and here filler words will come to the rescue, as well as expressions that will allow you to fill in the pause and think about your next statement. Do not be afraid of formulaic phrases - our language consists of them.

Useful English expressions: filling in the gaps

1. Well - an analogue of our "good" or "well." Only "well" is not in the incentive sense of "come on!" - in this sense, we use it at the end of a sentence, and at the beginning of a phrase - when we need to “buy time”. For example: "Well, tell me more about your plans." "Well, tell me more about your plans." Another translation of this word is "in any case." For example: "Well, I am not good so good speaker." "Anyway, I'm not such a good speaker."
2. Anyway - the translation options are the same as for well, but the use of anyway is typical for immigrants from the United States. Example: "Anyway, John divorced" - "In general, John divorced."
3. As far as - regarding, relatively, regarding, how much, etc. For example: "As far as I remember you are planning to leave that job". "I understand you're going to leave this job."
4. By the way or a popular social media abbreviation for this phrase is btw. It is translated as "by the way", "by the way". For example: "By the way, my boyfriend also likes motorcycling." “By the way, my boyfriend likes motorcycles too.”

These set expressions in English are common enough to be worth spending your time on in the first place.

It is enough to remember a few template phrases, in which individual words can be easily replaced or used in other sentences - and you will already have a good active dictionary.

For example: I don "t understand English. - I don't understand English.

Let's add a short word well (good).

I don "t understand English well. - I don't understand English well.

Instead of a simple well, you can use the most popular expression very well (very good). We get:

I don "t understand English very well. - I don't understand English very well.

Having analyzed these examples, you already understood that "I don" t "means" I am not ", and instead of understand, you can substitute any verb in the initial form from the dictionary. Of course, it would be desirable to know that" I don "t" is " I am not" only for the present tense, that is, with its help you can only say "I do not", but you cannot say "I did not". But all this can be easily clarified with the help of a quality grammar guide. In order to navigate your travels, it is important to have a good vocabulary, but grammar can wait. Mistakes will be forgiven. A set of expressions that are clear and useful to you is really very convenient to implement, parsing the sentences according to the scheme above. For example, try playing with the following phrases. Each of them will definitely come in handy when traveling:

How can I (How can I) get to the airport (get to the airport)?

(The verb get is one of the most used, its main meaning is "get").

May I (Can I) pay by credit card (pay by credit card)?

(In this sentence, the words credit card can be replaced with a short cash - cash).

Could you (Could you) help me a little (help me a little)?

(Similarly. The word help is very easy to replace with another verb).

Where is (Where is / is) the supermarket (this supermarket)?

Look carefully at the first parts of these sentences (can I, how can I, where is it, etc.). Using them, you can easily learn spoken English for tourists. Phrases, for example, could be:

Could you tell me…. - Could you tell me…

Where is the ticket office/shop/hospital? - Where is the ticket office/shop/hospital?

May I come in/help you/ask you/have another pastry? - Can I come in / help you / ask you / take another cake? (the word may has a connotation of permission "can", "allow").

The standard response to this expression, which you can never go wrong with, no matter how things really go for you: I'm fine, thank you. There are other options, it is better to start them with "I'm" (I'm good / very well). Answers like "so-so" (So-so or Fifty-fifty) will be perceived as your desire to continue the conversation and are no longer so formal.

Of the four skills that characterize knowledge of the English language - listening, reading, grammar and speaking - it is the first that is important to you. By exercising your listening comprehension skills, you prepare yourself to speak well. Consider how children learn to speak. First - understanding, that is, a passive process, then - speaking. So listen as much as you can. It can be conversations between other people, movies, radio, talk shows, and so on. Don't just watch movies, do work. It is highly recommended to watch movies with subtitles. Write down in English that occur in the film. Analyze them, check their meaning in the dictionary. Then watch the movie in a relaxed way, paying attention to other words as well. It doesn’t matter what result you have achieved and whether you remember at least something. Move on to the next movie and follow the same pattern. After a while, try looking at your notes. You will be surprised how much you already understand and are familiar with. So, without particularly straining and having fun, you can gain a good vocabulary.

Spoken English is speech that is used in a daily environment. These are the sayings and phrases that native speakers say in the store, at home, while meeting with friends, at a party, etc. Standard spoken phrases in English can be divided into several categories, such as ''Home and family'', ''Greetings '', ''Apologies'', ''Weather'', ''Hobby'', ''Dating'', etc.

It is important to note that colloquial phrases in English can be represented as one word ( Hello!, Hi!, Welcome!), and a collection of several words ( to tell you the truth, see you later, wish you a great day). Let's give examples of basic conversational phrases in English with translation, make interesting sentences with them and play a few situational examples. Go!

Common phrases in English: everything you need to know to keep the conversation going

So what is spoken English? The colloquial vocabulary of the English language is a kind of speech patterns, standard phrases that we use every day in our speech. The peculiarity of such English is that we use common colloquial phrases every day, without thinking about what they said. The fact is that for a basic conversational level, you need to know a minimum of vocabulary and grammar.

This is not a strict official speech, where speech constructions must be thought out to the smallest detail. The main thing here is to preserve the meaning and that one necessary phrase be interconnected with another and complement it. So you can talk to foreigners easily and without embarrassment.

We offer you to learn the basic colloquial phrases for everyday communication using tables. Below are some suggestions to consolidate the result.

English greetings and goodbyes

How to start a conversation in English? That's right, with the help of words of welcome. In the table below, consider the most popular options:

good afternoon	Good afternoon
good morning	Good morning
good evening	Good evening
Hi!	Hello!
Hello!	Hello! (Hello!)
See you tomorrow!	See you tomorrow!
Good bye (Bye)	Bye!

Note! These phrases are appropriate to use only in a conversational environment. Such friendliness is not suitable for an official style. Even if you are on good terms with colleagues at work, it is better to leave familiarity for cafes and at home, and at work you should adhere to corporate rules and appropriate official communication.

Reference: in addition to the classic phrases for speaking in English, there are also other options, for example, book ones. In this case, a prime example would be the word farewell, which means ‘ 'goodbye''. When we talk about this word, Ernest Hemingway's masterpiece comes to mind. AFarewelltoArms, or AfarewelltoGuns, as it is also known. The essay can be translated into Russian as "Farewell to weapons." It follows from this that the word farewell- more of a book version than a colloquial one. Just take note of this word.

After we greeted each other, to keep the conversation going, it is customary to ask how the interlocutor is doing. For this, too, there are standard phrases for communicating in English:

Note! After you have answered good,Fine or simply Ok, it is appropriate to add thank you, or a simplified version of the phrase thanks. These are basic rules of courtesy that everyone should know.

And further: remember that phrases like How are you? - an elementary example of a greeting, which is as appropriate as washing your hands before eating. This does not mean at all that the person who says the phrase is really interested in your life. It's just a greeting, nothing more. In this case, you need to answer briefly. fine,thanks, and in any case do not complain about life! In America, this is considered a sign of bad taste. That is not accepted. Personal conversations should be left for friendly conversation when talking with girlfriends at evening gatherings.

Phrases for expressing your opinion

The English language is very bright and colorful, and it is colored by individual words and phrases that we use in our conversation. One of these phrases are words to express confidence or vice versa - uncertainty.

Consider some options :

Be careful with the phrase I bet. This means that you are so sure of something that you are ready to argue. When we say I am certain, it means that you are very sure of something. But the phrases I am really pretty sure, I am absolutely sure are purely colloquial. When writing dialogues, be careful what you say.

Here are some examples to better explain the situation:

• We have a lot of things to do before we leave but we will visit all our friends, by all means => We have a lot of things to do before we leave, but we will visit all our friends no matter what became.
• I am really pretty sure that this girl was in our school canteen a few days ago => I am really pretty sure that this girl was in our school canteen a few days ago.
• Do you think that this is our new teacher? – Yes, I am asbolutely sure => Do you think this is our new teacher? - Yes, I'm quite sure.
• I am certain that these questions will be on agenga today => I am certain that these questions will be on the agenda today.
• These boys are no doubt the examples of real gentleman => These boys are undoubtedly examples of real gentleman.
• These people are by no means be blamed => These people should never be blamed.

Expressing uncertainty

Note! I guess has a synonym - I think. Both options are used when the speaker is not quite sure what he is saying. But... The first option means - I guess, the second - I think. In any case, the parallel between them is quite thin and both options are appropriate when a person is in uncertainty. But! There is still a slight difference. The fact is that I guess is an informal variant that is typical for American English. In the British English phrasebook, we see the option I think. Spoken English for beginners, as you can see, also has its own nuances. So be careful when you start talking in general terms.

Another pair of synonyms - maybe/perhaps. Both words mean => maybe maybe. The only difference: maybe- the option is more for oral speech. In the written style, the word is also used, but purely in a colloquial environment. At that time perhaps is more formal and often used in writing.

Here are some examples for better understanding:

• I think she knows better than you. Last time she did her best, as always => I think she knows better than you. Last time, she did her best, as always.
• I guess we would better buy white flowers. I always see them in your sister's bedroom => I think we should buy white flowers. I always see them in your sister's bedroom.
• Maybe your parents will be tolerant and agree to take this homeless dog => Maybe your parents will be tolerant and agree to take this homeless dog.
• I am not sure they come home tonight => I am not sure they will come home tonight.
• You see, the reason is, I am not quite sure, if they really understood the task => See, the reason is that I'm not quite sure they really understood the task.

When we want to speak our mind to show/express our opinion), then we also use certain words and phrases. They make the conversation livelier and richer.

Consider the phrases in the sentences:

• To tell you the truth, things are much better than you think => To tell you the truth, things are much better than you think.
• To be honest, your new hair-do is not so good as you wished => To be honest, your new hair-do is not as good as you wanted.
• It seems to me that these guys have all skills to success => It seems to me that these guys have all the skills to succeed.
• To my mind, black is not the best way to color the walls => In my opinion, black is not the best way to paint walls.
• In my opinion, you had to study harder to pass this exam. There is no one to blame but you => In my opinion, you should have studied harder to pass the exam. The only one to blame is you.
• In my humble opinion, this dress doesn't suit you any more => In my humble opinion, this dress doesn't suit you anymore.

Expression of consent

Everyone knows that when we agree with something, we say yes. But this is not the only word by which you can express your agreement. Consider other words and phrases =>

A few sentences with words and phrases of agreement:

• This time I will wear blue dress, and you - red. – Deal! => This time I will take the blue dress and you the red one. - Deal!
• We had to add less flour in dough because it is too thick. It won't be delicious. – I agree with you. We added too much flour => We should have added less flour to the dough because it is too dense. It won't taste good. - Agree with you. We added too much flour.
• Will you come with us tomorrow? – sure! I have nothing to do => Will you come with us tomorrow? - Of course! I have nothing to do.
• There will be a great party tomorrow. And there is a dress code. We all have to wear gorgeous dresses of lilac colour. Will you come? – I guess so => ​​There will be a big party tomorrow. Dress code announced. We should all be in gorgeous purple dresses. You will come? - I think yes.

Reference: word Absolutely means consent and should not be translated as absolutely. It is not right. Correct translation -> I completely agree with you, of course, of course. The correct option must be chosen based on the context.

Note! There is an interesting phrase in English Ican't (couldn'tt)agreemore, which means I can't help but agree. If you want to make conversational speech more colorful, and a dry topic lively, do not neglect interesting expressions.

Here is an example in a sentence:

• This cake is so delicious I want to give you one more piece! — I can't agree more! => This cake is so delicious that I want to give you another piece! - I can't help but agree!

We express disagreement

It can be seen from the table that the words we use to indicate disagreement are quite interesting. In addition to the standard Idon'tthinkso and Ofcoursenot, other phrases are used in colloquial speech. Consider them in sentences =>

• Yesterday I saw your girl with another guy! – You must be kidding! She was with me waiting for my parents! => Yesterday I saw your girlfriend with another guy! - You must be joking! She was with me, we were waiting for my parents!
• Tomorrow I and your sister will visit our friends. You will stay home cleaning the house. – Nothing of the king. I go with you! => Tomorrow your sister and I will visit our friends. You stay at home and clean up. - Nothing like this. I'm coming with you!
• Today we are going to bake bread. We have everything we need. Let us start! Are you kidding? I bought everything for pizza, as you asked me. Give me back my money! => Today we will bake bread! We have everything we need. Let's start! - Are you kidding? I bought everything for the pizza, just like you asked me to. Give me back my money!
• I will buy you a beautiful dress for the evening. It costs 10,000 dollars. Are you satisfied with the price? – Absolutely not. I will find another one. This one is too expensive => I will buy you a beautiful dress for this evening. It costs $10,000. Are you satisfied with the price? - Of course not. I will find another dress. It's too expensive.
• I solved the problem in the way we decided yesterday. Everything should be correct. - I don't agree with you. You have done something wrong. The system works not in an appropriate way. The head is unsatisfied => I solved the problem the way we did yesterday. Everything must be right. - I disagree with you. You did something wrong. The system is not working properly. The head is dissatisfied .

The use of such phrases in colloquial speech makes it more beautiful and pleasant. You should not forget about the elements of politeness even when talking with relatives and friends. A few examples:

• What about your close friends? Don't you want to invite them? We will have a lot of fun! => What about your close friends? Would you like to invite them? It will be a lot of fun!
• Can I offer you one more slice of lemon? This will make your tea more tasty => May I offer you another slice of lemon? This will make your tea taste better.
• Of course this is your deal but I will recommend you to listen to our advices => Of course it's up to you, but I would advise you to listen to our advices.
• Would you like to come with us? We have one more seat in the car => Would you like to come with us? We have one more seat in the car.
• Why don't you give all your old things to homeless people? They will be grateful to you! => Why don't you give all your old things to homeless people? They will be very grateful to you!

Important! If I were you -> a phrase from a conditional sentence that makes up its element. Pay attention to how such sentences are formed:

• If I were you, I would buy this dress => I would buy this dress if I were you.
• I would be silent if I were you => If I were you, I would be silent.

As you noticed, the second part of the conditional sentence is formed by the method would+verb. Wherein If I were you can stand both at the beginning and at the end of a phrase (if you forgot something, grammar will help you repeat the necessary material). The meaning itself does not change when rearranged.

What words to express feelings and evaluate them

We use these phrases for each individual case to compose sentences =>

• What the hell! What did you do with my new coat! It is all dirty! => What the hell! What have you done with my new coat! It's all dirty!
• I am so glad for you! You were one of the brightest student in the university so you deserve that job! Congratulations! => I'm so happy for you! You were one of the smartest students at the university, so you deserve this job! Congratulations!
• Did you bake this cake by yourself? Fantastic! It is so delicious! => Did you bake this cake yourself? Awesome! Very tasty!
• Hello! How are you? I heard you bought a new house! - Hi! good, thanks. But it could be better if my wife consulted me before buying this house! => Hello! How do you? I heard you bought a new house! - Hi! Well thank you. But it might have been better if my wife had consulted with me before buying this house!
• I will not come with you tomorrow. I have not enough money to pay for this journey. – Oh, what a pity! We will bring you a souvenir! => I will not go with you tomorrow. I don't have enough money to pay for this trip. - Oh, what a pity! We'll bring you a souvenir!
• Look at my new bycicle! It is the last model! – Cool! I always wanted the same! => Look at my new bike! This is the latest model! - Cool! I've always wanted one!
