Eat Sleep Dream English this channel really helps me !! Thank you Can you do a video about eating the "t" in english pronunciation cauz I have a problem with it
Eat Sleep Dream English, hi from Indonesia... I have worked with india people and they often speak english. little by little, I can speak English. but really very bad. can you show subtitles from your video? So I can understand what you say
I used the phrase "long story short" many times because in my mother language I used a similar phrase, and now I try to use "Don't get me wrong" which sound really useful in a common conversation. Thank you for this video!!
I think you are such a polite person. I can see it through the way you speak the language and that you've got quite a bit of videos about politness in English. I've learnt a good English thanks to you. THANK YOU. :-)
To be honest... The thing that I love about english is the pronunciation... ;) Thanks for this video. All these phrases are very useful. Greetings from Peru. :)
I just would like to congratulate you!Your wonderful job and your amazing offer via RUclips is precious!!!!!Love the British culture!!!!Love the UK and the British Commonwealth!!!!
Hello,dear Tom ! Phrases I like : it rings the bell, to be behind the weather, give someb a chance and so on and so forth.cheers Julio teacher from Dolores Argentina
Here's a fun English game for you Dreamers. Place the word "only" before or after any word in this sentence: *She told him that she loved him.* (observe how the meaning changes with each different placement of "only")
I love how most of these are common in both British and American English. I speak American English and I really enjoy hearing how people from the UK teach English.
Lovely!!! When I was living in London I heard a lot one..."I don't feel like...blabla..." I don't feel like doing that or eating that or going etc.... Cheers!!!
I've just learned another phrase that I really like and I want to share with all of you Dreamers: "to give it a shot". It means: to make an attempt or effort to do something. I don't know though if it's only used in American english or even in British english 🤔. Instead my favorite phrases taught by you Tom are: "How come", "to be honest", "Don't get me wrong", but right now I can't "build" any sentence (I'm at work in my office under pressure 😬). Thanks Tom 😃!
How's this for an example sentence "I do not know if I will be successful at scuba diving, but I will give it a shot." I don't know if I will finish revising and editing this ninety page report by noon tomorrow, but I will give it a shot."
You are the best! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I've heard these expressions since I moved to London, and most of the time I had to get them by myself, according to the context. I can remember the first time someone asked me "how comes?" When I said I love to live in Paddington. I just sttoped, thought a lit bit and realized he was asking me "why?". It was the only question that could make sense that time. And I answered why I liked to live there , but I was still afraid to be wrong...lololol After that, I googled it and I confirmed I was right. I never forgot that expression and I've tried to use it as much as possible in conversations. Today, I see in this video some expressions I had faced and learnt by myself. Thank you! ♥️
I'd love to but... By the Way Don't get me wrong How come? Long story short The thing that... If I were you... Long time no see I'm not being funny but... To be honest
Hello. One phrase that you talked about ... “IF I WERE YOU...” gives me goosebumps! I am a non native to English. I learned the language in my later years and I have been living in England for the last 16 years, in Nottingham. Back in the day, I learned that the subjunctive of the verb to be for the first person is... “if I were” and the past tense for the second person is ‘You were’. As you said. (Big sigh of relief here!). Then, such peculiarities got emblazoned in my mind. LONG STORY SHORT, nobody says that! DON’T GET ME WRONG, I love my colleagues at work but the word ‘were’ is nowhere to be heard in their speech. They constantly and consistently say ‘you was’ and ‘If I was you’. HOW COME? I’M NOT BEING FUNNY BUT they are wrong, aren’t they? THE THING THAT really annoys me the most is because I have a foreign accent and a tan, I am always looked down. TO BE HONEST, it hurts! BY THE WAY, I love your videos and I am learning lots. May I suggest a topic: The English traps! Or the most common grammar mistakes that native speakers do and how not to fall into them. I hope you appreciate how I used the phrases you talked about in this video. (Wink)
Thanks for all great lesson you bring us to learn in more deeper level of British English . I use all those 10 phrases in my teaching as well as in communicate with my students and colleagues. May God bless your life n work
Thanks a lot Tom for this super useful video ☺ "Long story short" and "I'm not being funny but " are new expressions for me so I'll try to use them as possible as I can
I grew up speaking Spanish, at 13 I learned English in Compton (U.S) somehow i've been using all these British phrases all along... my mind is blown 🤯🤯🤯
Hello Tom, I am preparing for IELTS (International English Language Testing System) and your channel / content seems to be really helpful. By the way I just subscribed to your channel. Thanks :-)
Great work thanks Tom To be honest you made my conversation has a lot of expressions and phrases, now i can use a loads of different ways to mention anything that i want and my conversation being longer... I really appreciate your work Thanks again Tom 😄♥️
It is not easy to choose one the best phrase because all of them are useful. But finally I can make a chart. So most useful and new (for me) at the same time are: 1) Long story short. 2) The thing that. 3) Long time no see. By the way if I heard last phrase without preparation, as a non-native speaker I could think that a person wants to not see me a long time, he or she is not happy to see me :)
As a native English speaker I enjoy your videos. I'm glad I found your channel. Another phrase "good enough?" which has a few different meanings depending upon the circumstances.Another "in some respects I think/agree/disagree.....
My fav in brittish english is: "Anyway, .. " and than you can change the subject, your shirt, apperance or whatever. Sling in the odd weather forecast if nessesary but "anyway" is missing in your big 10 IMHO, as I see it. Anyway, that's not a big deal. Thank You, following you as from this day! (and appologies for grammar mistakes) 😀
Thank u! I like the way you go straight to the point and how useful are these phrases (; ...I enjoyed this video a lot, I just subscribed. Regards from Guatemala!
Don't get me wrong, I love your channel, but the old English Grammarians taught me that intransitive verbs like sleep, dream... usually take an adverbial modifier but not an object except when they're used in the causative sense as in: "sleep the baby! " Meaning "cause/make the baby sleep! " Also they take a cognate object as in: "sleep a sound sleep!" Here is an Englishman Tom saying, "sleep/dream English!" I take it that you mean "Think of English even in your sleep/dream! " Is that it? Aha! See how I've used the phrase " don't get me wrong in this comment! I love your informative channel! Thanks for your posts!
Lovely! I remember some phrases I've recently learned - what bugs you?, what beats me is..., How about?, How's that?, in a nutshell, If I were in your position, I should do sth - e.g. I should wear a coat if I were you, I should wait etc., look sb up - call on sb who I haven't seen for ages, I'll be honest with you...
Before I watched this video I uses long time no see often because I am not a very social person so I dont talk to others as such but when I do see them after some time I use the phrase.
Thank you I have been following videos from first .You are perfect teacher that I have ever known.This video was also so useful for me.I am exited about today's video
One thing I have noticed is that Brits seem to have a 'thing' for speech impediments, and complicated (funny) names. Be wary of speakers who say "To be honest...", is used all to frequently by Liars! By the Way, All these phrases are used by American English speakers, too.
Here in the U.S. we more often say "long time no see" in the opposite way. For example, you see your friend in the morning and you both end up at the same place later in the day you would say, "Hey! Long time no see!" Kind of like sarcasm but in a light hearted friendly way.
Quick comment on a difference between British and American English: In your example for 'Long story short', at the end when you say '...we ended up in hospital', in American English, we'd say '...we ended up in the hospital' or '...we ended up at the hospital'. Hospital is preceded by the word 'the' in American English when 'hospital' is the subject location.
I believe the origin of "long time no see" is from Cantonese speaking people. It's a word for word translation from the same phrase in Cantonese, which is literally "long time", followed by "no", and then "see".
Supposedly “long time no see” is a remnant of what was called CPE or “Chinese Pidgin English,” which was a standard lingo for trade between Britain and China at one time, a highly simplified English. So the Cantonese origin sounds very probable. Another common phrase left over from CPE is “to have a look-see.”
Please teacher I was wondering if you could make a video with the most useful expressions to talk about annoyance or phrases to use when we're are at the end of one's tether... Please it'll really help us big time.

Like it! It's fascinating how the meaning changes. Thanks for that Tim : )

She "only" told him that she loves him.
*She told him that she loves him "only", long story short.
I love how most of these are common in both British and American English. I speak American English and I really enjoy hearing how people from the UK teach English.

Very interesting and useful video, you're are a really good teacher. I will keep on following up with the others
Great RUclips channel, to be honest, the best I've ever watched on RUclips improving my English, keep it up!
Great episode! Surely, I've heard those phrases but it's good to have them listed. It'll make it easier to practice.
Thanks!
That's quite useful.
The phrase that I liked the most, and would like to use is;
''If I were you, I'd...'', to give advice.
I have suggested this video to my students. Thanks. You are my partner in teaching my students.
I love British english accent. Thanks for teaching us.
I love the phrase 'Long story short' I don't know why but it sounds amazing! I can't wait to use it!
Great video!
Instead some say "to cut to the chase" as in an old Western movie.
You are the best! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Long time no see
I'm not being funny but...
To be honest

I follow you form Italy, i like your channel very much, It's a pleasure for me to study english whit a teacher like that. Bye
Giorgia
Great lesson! Thank you Tom!
One of my favourite phrases:
"That´s not my cup of tea"
You mean it as "its not my coop of tea" then....to vocal sense.
does it mean "is not my business?"
Chiara, it is understood better as "That's not something (or someone) that I like."
Thank u! I like the way you go straight to the point and how useful are these phrases (; ...I enjoyed this video a lot, I just subscribed. Regards from Guatemala!

Here is an Englishman Tom saying, "sleep/dream English!"
I take it that you mean "Think of English even in your sleep/dream! "
Is that it?
Aha! See how I've used the phrase " don't get me wrong in this comment!
I love your informative channel!

In Russia, we use " You can' t change the meeting point" after a popular TV movie in this very sense.
