Try it out! Go from Standard to Casual English (15 Common Sentences)

Speak how most people actually speak! Standard English is important and essential for communication, but in relaxed everyday situations, casual English is incredibly common. Instead of “I don’t understand,” you might hear “I don’t get it .” Instead of “Let’s meet tomorrow,” you might hear “Let’s get together tomorrow.” These are just two examples of casual English expressions. In this lesson, I teach 15 standard English sentences and their casual English equivalents. Other casual expressions in this lesson include: “He’s pissed off,” “I’m beat,” “It’s on me,” “No worries,” “Check this out,” “Try it out,” “I’ll get in touch with you,” and more! Listen and repeat the sentences in the video, do the quiz on EngVid, use the sentences in the comments, and come back in a few days to refresh your knowledge. You got this! www.engvid.com/go-from-standa...

    I am so proud that I reached a level where I watch your videos and I actually know everything you wanna speak about without watching the video. I remember watching you Alex when my english level was not strong and I was struggling to understand and pushing myself to learn English. I am so grateful. Yet I know these phrases but I still enjoy watching these videos that remind me of the good old days and make me even prouder of myself. Keep the good work up Alex!

    ​@@kaamil2991I my experience I could say that the secret is to practice more and more but WITH CONTEXT, I listen to audio books here in KZread or short stories about daily life. It's easier to improve our vocabulary like that instead of reading lists or reading book of topic that which we're not interested. You can also use Ai(Artificial inteligente), ask it to write sentences with specific words or phrases (like in the video) in different grammar times and subjects and you'll understand/remember easily each one of them.
