- Read long to learn the English Phrases TALK THE TALK, WALK THE WALK, and ALL WALKS OF LIFE:
So in this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase, he talks the talk, but does not walk the walk. When we say this about someone, when we say someone talks the talk, it means that when they're talking, they say they're going to behave a certain way, they say they're going to do certain things in the proper way or in the right way, so we say that they talk the talk, but when they walk the walk, it means that they actually do what they said they were going to do. So you might know someone like this in life. There are people in life that talk the talk, but they don't walk the walk. A good example would be someone who says I have been a criminal my whole life, and I am now a different person, I am no longer going to steal things from people. We know now that when people talk the talk, they don't always walk the walk. Sometimes they do. So if someone did say that, you would hope that they wouldn't just talk the talk, you would hope that they would also walk the walk. And that would mean that they would actually stop doing the bad things they said they were gonna stop doing.

The other phrase I wanted to look at today is the phrase all walks of life. When you say that people come from all walks of life, it means they come from all different levels of society and from all different parts of society. A good example would be if you were talking somewhere and people came to listen to you, and one of the people that came was a plumber and one of the people that came was a really rich person, and one of the people that came was a bit of a poor person, you could say that people from all walks of life came to listen to you talk. So to review, when someone talks the talk, but does not walk the walk, it means they say they're gonna do something, but their actions are actually different from what they said they were going to do. And when people come from all walks of life, it means that they come from all different backgrounds, different countries, different jobs, etc., etc. You could say this, people from all walks of life watch my videos on RUclips.
So anyways, thanks for watching, guys. I really do like that. Let's look at a comment from a previous video. And this comment is from Quaim Hussain, and Quaim says, "Today's phrases were very interesting." And my response was this, "I'm glad you liked them. Every phrase I teach is a phrase I actually hear at some point the day or week before the lesson." So I'm not sure if you know this, but first of all, let me thank Quaim, thanks for leaving the comment.
I don't know if you guys know this, but the phrases I teach on this channel are not from a book. The phrases are not from a long list of popular phrases or idioms that I found and that I'm teaching you them one by one. Here's what I do. I actually listen to all of the people around me at work, I listen to everyone in my family, I listen to everyone who talks on the television, and when I hear a phrase that I think would be a good phrase to teach all of you, I quickly write it down and I have a little list in a spreadsheet. So the phrases that I just taught you today were actually two phrases that I just heard at work earlier today. Someone actually used the phrase that people came from all walks of life, and someone actually used the phrase, well, yeah, he talks the talk, but does he walk the walk.
So again, the lessons you are getting here are pretty authentic. This is not some situation where I just go look up weird English phrases and teach them to you because I need a good idea for that day. This is actually me carefully listening all the time to every English conversation I have, and then making a little lesson out of it for you. Some of you actually realized this because sometimes the lesson comes from the comments. I know Rodrigo pointed out once when I was talking to him that someone had asked a question in a livestream and used a certain phrase, or and I used a phrase when I gave the answer, and then the next day, I taught that phrase on this short English lesson.
So anyways, authentic English from Bob the Canadian. I hope it's helping you. Hope you're having a good day. I'll see you tomorrow with another short English lesson.

I fond almost all phrases or idioms have the corresponding thing in my mother tongue. That's interesting. Thank you Bob.
likewise 🙂
Hey teacher Bob! Your lessons have been very useful because there are a lot of sayings and short expressions in Portuguese that have the same meaning, but their literal translation are completely different. Example: Peace of cake is similar in Portuguese to "Mamão com açúcar" (papaya with sugar). If I say it, probably you won't understand... 😄
Thanks Bob for all lessons! God bless you.
Hello from France!
As a nurse, I care for people from all walks of life.
Thank you, Bob!
You can to tiptoe, but you can't to tipfinger. You have fingertips but you don't have toetips. It's kinda of tricky, isn't it?
I've heard a pretty similar phrase to those two, which is "walk the talk".
What a treasure we have on this channel :). I’ve been watching the other channel as well, but the idea of this one is perfect for me,since I don’t have much time to watch looong videos.
This channel is my breakfast buddy haha
Keep it up Bob!!
You are great sir... ❤️ Love you...keep uploading videos like this.I am glad to found your
channel. 🤩
I love English for its brevity and clarity. Look at this "he talks the talk but does he walk the walk?" Excellent! It'll probably become my favorite one after "don't trouble troubles until troubles trouble you. " Thank you Bob for your short lessons, for their brevity and clarity.
If I think that a song can give me more goosebumps than any other songs, can I say this then? "Which song could give me more goosebumps than this one?" I mean, I find that it can give me way more goosebumps than other songs. If I use "could", will it indicate hypothetical? Or do I need to use "can"? I am confused about it. Please explain.
PS:
Can I say this as a rhetorical question?
▪ Which song could give me more goosebumps than this (one)?
I think "could" makes it a rhetorical question, i.e., a question that I don't really want answered. The answer is understood to be "none".
Hello, Bob! It is great that you teach us phrases from everyday life! Unfortunately, some politicians, deputies or delegates may sometimes be an example of people who talk the talk but don't walk the walk. The first thing that came to my mind (
I’ve following all your videos but I forgot many of phrases what I do please help me
A million thanks for the interesting new words
I think many ( not all ) of religion men they talk the talk but they don't walk the walk .

Thank you for Authentic English Phrases from Authentic (!!!) Bob!!!
Wisdom words. Wisdom Words. Thank you one more time. 🙏👍🇧🇷
I've been binge watching your authentic lessons while my son is sleeping.Thank you for wonderful lessons and gorgeous sceneries.
Dear Teacher Bob :
Enjoy all walks of life from your videos.😉💐
Hello teacher Bob... U r right and I think this is one of many reasons why there are so many followers on your channel. The naturalness way of teaching is totally different from a notebook or anything else pre-prepared like a world model. Thx a lot for ur big efforts and amazing lessons for all of us. Hugs
Mr. Bob, I love both idioms. I use them a lot. I think they mean a lot as well. They’re amazing. Unfortunately in the world lately there are many who talk the talk but don’t walk the walk. 👏🏻💪🏻
this is the one of the best RUclips channels ever ! thank you so much for the authentic content
Thank you for your pretty authenic lesson. we, the people learn English on your channel, coming from all walks of life, should follow you, being carefully listening to every lesson and conversation we have all the time and then making a little note for review.
I take my grandson for walks everyday. we meet people come from all walks of life in the park. Sometimes, we talk about the child, the dog or the weather. Although my grandson, a one year old baby, still couldn't say a word, he can have a short conversation with the dogs by using the baby language. Sometimes, he goes naughty, and I would say, "your bottom would be spanked," but I never once spanked him, where I always talk the talk but doesn't walk the walk.
By the way, can I use the phrase "all walks of life" to describe the dogs? in the park, we can meet a lot of dogs with different backgrand, different size and ages, different kind and different performence. Is the sentence "we meet people and dogs come from all walks of life in the park" correct?
Thank you for teaching authentic English! I love your lessons.
Talk the talk and walk the walk....it reminds me of put your money where your mouth is
Yes! Exactly! Nice work Roberto! 🙂👍💡
Hi Bob good job 👍🏻

I hope one day you will be the winner of this race! 😁
thank you Bob
Thx Bob!
I want to walk the walk but not talk the talk for learning English:-)
The phrase "he talks the talk, but does not walk the walk" suits some politicians.
I'm going to the theater on Saturday and I think there will be people from all walks of life. By the way this will be my first visit to the theater since isolation.😊
I have the same idea about politicians.
thx bob
Thanks Teacher Bob for teaching us!
I'll try something that i've learned recently Teacher Bob:I'm across these phrases "talk the talk"and "walk the walk"!!What i wanted to say is that i'm aware of these phrases.I use the word across though...feel free to correct it Teacher!Thank you very much Sir!!
Thanks a lot Bob
Morning Sir Bob, could we actually mix both of them? I mean, could I say to a good friend of mine, "Hey dude, you should walk the talk!"
Excellent job. Take care.
👍💪
I like this natural short course. Thanks for your lesson. I will you are just living around me. Thank technology
Hello Teacher Bob ! Thank you for this new video lesson! I love the way you explain things. It's easy to understand and easy to remember! And it's obviously English you hear and "live" every day !
Some people especially politicians like to sweet talk and hardly walk the talk. People from all walks of life despite the dishonest politicians who never honour their promises. Thank you!
Teacher Bob, thanks for these pharses. They are useful and very easy to remember. Luckily, all my relatives and friends are not those people who talk the talk but don't walk the walk. They are all responsible people and always do what they say!
Thanks
Nice
Friend of mine is talker and he always talks the talk, but does not walk the walk. Perple around me are all from works of life.
I believe that people from all walks of life would admire the person who talks the talk and also walks the walk.
In other words, they don't put money where their mouth is
Hi dear teacher! Thanks for the video. These are really great phrases and they are easy to remember!
I loved this lesson. Thank you, Bob.
Walk it like I talk it 🎶
THANK YOU
Your youtube channel is gucci,
Mr. Wes taught us the word Gucci on his youtube channel.😁
I would have found the meaning of this expression very easily.
