    in brief:
    In this video, the host, Catherine, teaches five common phrases used in native English, particularly in the UK.
    Here's a summary of the phrases and their meanings:
    1. "The thing is" - This phrase is used to introduce an issue or a problem.
    It's a common way of softening a negative or critical message.
    For example, "The thing is, a few colleagues have noticed you've been late a few times this month."
    2. "Fair enough" - This is a response to something seen as acceptable, logical, or reasonable.
    It can be used in a wide range of situations, like when agreeing to a fair trade-off: "I'll do the dishes tonight if you do the dishes tomorrow," "Fair enough."
    3. "What a shame" - This is used when expressing disappointment or sympathy for a minor unfortunate event.
    However, it's not appropriate for very serious or sad situations.
    For example, "Oh, I dropped my favourite necklace in the river," "Oh, what a shame."
    4. "A complete nightmare" - This phrase is used to describe a frustrating or annoying situation, often used in complaints about traffic, trains, or long queues.
    For instance, "The trains were a complete nightmare yesterday."
    5. "What have you been up to" - This phrase is used in small talk to ask about recent activities or future plans.
    For example, "What have you been up to recently?" or "What are you up to on the weekend?"
    The video aims to help English learners sound more natural and informal in their conversations.
    It also provides cultural context, explaining that these phrases are often heard in everyday conversations in the UK.

I once had a customer ask me where the tinned vegetables are at the grocery store I work. Thankfully I knew what she meant because I heard of tinned vegetables on another RUclips channel. Cheers 🙂!

And fitting all these so attractively in only 10 minutes time is wonderful, not to mention your afable presentation which screams to be genuine and not acting. Keep up the good work.

    I lived in Islington (Angel - Northern line) and Stockwell. London is in my heart forever and ever!
    Football came into Brazil in 1894, through a Brazilian man whose parents were English (very common in the mid 1800s in Sao Paulo town). There were a lot of British engineers working in Sao Paulo town and Rio de Janeiro, the country's capital until 1959. This man, "Charles Miller", studied in England for about 10 years. When he came back in 1894, he brought with him a football book of rules of the game, a ball and his skills to play and teach the game to the mates which he worked with. That's a little part how this typical British game was born in Brazil.

But i feel my progress in journey of bringing my english to a better position as yours is stagnant, not moving. I have difficulties in tackling with the issues of using and memorizing of phrasal verbs in an efficiency and accurate way. I watch english programmes only. When it comes to english songs , i can understand nothing and can understand CNN or BBC to some extent. I am happy to hear from you whether there is an easy way in learning phrasal verbs , as they are annoying me in such a great deal that in some occasions , i have felt quitting english programmes. Thank you so much.

    I'm learning English by watching your video, I'm studying English every day and recording my voice and speaking my own ideas.
