Saying Sorry In English - Level Up Your English Conversation
Level up your conversation with better ways of saying 'sorry' in English. I’ve got a question: have you ever forgotten your best friend’s birthday, or been late for an important meeting?
Have you ever been late for an important meeting, or spilt coffee on a friend’s shirt?
What connects all these situations?
They’re all situations where you might need to apologise. If so, what would you say? Of course, to apologise, you can just say ‘I’m sorry’, but there’s much more language that native-level English speakers use to apologise and express how they feel.
In this lesson, you'll learn useful phrases to apologise in different ways in different situations.
Continue to practice your conversation even after the lesson ends. Chat with a certified English teacher now: bit.ly/ooe-teachers.

Nice examples, Akash! A few tips: 5. '...selected for the interview,' not, 'for interview.' 6. '...accept my apology,' not, 'apologies.' 11. 'fault,' not, 'falt.' Hope this helps you!

Hi there. I think you're referring to the sentence: 'Sometimes I don’t know where your head is.' Is that right? This means, 'Sometimes, I don't know what you're thinking.' Basically, the other person doesn't seem to be paying attention or making good choices. Hope this helps you!

The audio in this video is not encouraging. You can do better by yourself; get away from the vacuum. Good luck.
