Most of these phrases are used in works of art, films, television programs. Also, some expressions will come in handy if you decide to visit a country on business or go on a tourist trip to relax. To communicate with service personnel, taxi drivers, sellers, you will need knowledge of English colloquial phrases.

How to learn colloquial phrases?

Some sites serve English popular expressions simply alphabetically, without classifying them by topic. In my opinion, it is more difficult to learn them this way. It is much easier to learn English idioms if you divide them by topics and situations where they are used: Greeting, Farewell, Politeness, Road, Emergencies and others. Therefore, on our website, I made a thematic selection with translation.

Stable English expressions must be repeated every day, try to think in English, often use them in communication. Also, so that you remember these phrases and words faster, look through or reread them before going to bed. It is better to start with the simplest designs, gradually getting closer to more complex ones and increasing the pace. Step by step learning is the most effective.

English colloquial phrases, expressions and words are very concise. With what phrases to start learning is up to you. I recommend choosing based on which area you need to tighten. It is better to learn with translation. You can start, for example, with phrases of greeting and farewell:

  1. Of course, words like Hello (Hello), Goodbye (Goodbye), Hi (Hello) and Bye (Bye) are the legitimate leaders in terms of frequency of use. Without them, nowhere. But in order to at least slightly diversify your speech, I recommend using other expressions:
