TRANSCRIPT
God, I love your lips, Angelina. Hi. James from engVid. I was just thinking to myself: Well, I know it's very difficult to practice English because you don't get a lot of practice with English speakers, but if there were a way I could teach you how to get past "Hello" to make the conversation grow and perhaps have the other person come back and talk to you, that would be of great value. So this lesson is about how to get past "Hello" and make a beautiful conversation flow. All right? I'm going to use Angelina to help me later on when I do an example, but for now I will tell you more. See? He's like: "Tell me more. Hmm. I'm interested." And so am I. All right, so let's go to the board, shall we?
I'm going to give you five conversation openers. You've said: "Hello", where do you go? Personally I hate this because I teach and I hear people say: "Hello. My name is James. I am from Japan, Tokyo." The conversation is essentially dead. Dunh-dunh-dunh-dunh. Don't know if that's the wedding theme or the theme from Star Wars. Doesn't matter. You understand. It's killed. Nobody cares. You've said everything that they need to know and then they're done. So why don't we do something that actually gets them to open up and want to tell you information? Okay?
So the first one we're going to do is this one. I like this one. It's so easy, it's so true. Look for something that someone is wearing or has that you actually like. You're not going to steal it, so don't think about that. But what I mean is you like. You like the t-shirt, you like the jeans, the ear rings or something, you're like: "Cool", because that will be sincere. "Sincere" means that you really mean it and the person can feel that from you, so they'll want to share with you because you're being honest with them. All right? So we look here, number one, walk up and say... So it's like: "Hello. Love your __________ (jacket, t-shirt). That is so cool." Yeah? "Where did you get them?" or "Where did you get it?" Notice I didn't say: "Where did you buy it?" because some of the coolest things someone's going to be wearing won't be from this country. It might be: "Hey. I was in India and I picked up these beads. Yeah, it was really cool. I was outside this ashram and..." And now you've got a conversation you didn't even know. Or it might be: "Oh, I was downtown in the hippie section, you know, and it was really cool, there was all this art." You've started a conversation. If you say: -"...buy them?" -"At the gap." Finished. So: "Hey. Where did you get them?" Let them say "buy". Don't bring that up. Okay? Follow that up with right away... As soon as you say: "Where did you buy them...?" It's true... It might not be true right now, but it could be true, you say: "Because I really have to get a cool present", or: "...an interesting gift for my nephew/my brother/my sister/my friend." Right? Or girlfriend, whatever, or your wife. By saying that you're saying, well, one thing, you have other friends. But number two, you're giving them: "Cool". You're saying whatever they're wearing is interesting, cool, different enough that it stopped you to talk to them. By example or by extension, that means added on you're saying: "You're kind of cool, too, because you're wearing it and I think it's cool, so it's got to be cool and only a cool person would buy it." Right? This is why it works, you've given them two compliments. Who doesn't want to be complimented? First you're saying I'm wearing something cool, then you're saying: "I need to get something cool, and clearly what you have is cool." I'm probably going to talk to you and go: "Well, you know, thanks for saying that. I liked it because..." And conversation started, and now you have an opportunity to maybe later on talk more, and that's how you get your practice.
Number two, how about this one? "Wow, you are _________ (tall)" or: "You have _________ (really bright eyes)", or something that has to do with the physical body. The first one was about things. Physical. Now we want to talk about physical. And you followed that up with: "What do you do?" Huh? Example, you see someone, you go: "Wow, you have amazing skin. What do you do to make it so clear?" Okay? Hmm. Or: "Wow, you're tall. What do you do? Do you play sports or anything like that?" Okay? You follow it up. This is the follow up, as I said: "What do you do?" But why does this work? Now, notice this is green and I have green up here.

I believe that having good intentions or having love in your mind and heart these start up lines for conversation are great , but this talent come naturally to those that are positive and confident. Great Content love it. I use this with out even realizing it. Complimenting people, asking how and where the are in route too. There's many more we can list but being sincere , nice , actually listening to others, naturally positive energy and vibration can create a wonderful time together.
In the example conversation, “where” shouldn’t have an “a” in it.
All the same, I am a new subscriber and very much enjoy your teaching!
Is that a worm or what? Please tell me more
I need a lesson on using would have or would had...lol
James I really appreciate your lessons, more especially on how to read effectively.
I would deeply appreciate if you can teach us a lesson on how to summarise effectively as well.
I complimented someone's jacket and then followed up with saying I need to get my nephew a gift, and that person told me they also watched this RUclips video.

I loved the explanation of starting a conversation. The funny thing for me is, I hate being the first one to introduce myself. I’d rather they be the first one to ask. So I just don’t hand it out until then; because I’m shy..😆

Goat comment
@@chirurgiacosmetica mmmmm....... sure....
One of the most genuine I’ve found is simply asking “how was your day?” Stating your name then asking that is one of the most honest conversation starters
Some don't want to give too much details to people they don't know and just say "good". This only works if you're trying to make a conversation, not withstanding the response or the other person is quite extroverted.
@@evangeline4966 very true didn’t think about that. I just thought it was genuine
Hello sir
@@evangeline4966 Nice way to say that's a BORING QUESTION. I totally agree. It's so boring!!! 😉🤣
I would like this man to teach my kids how to talk and get in to good conversations with people.
Why don’t you just learn for yourself?
This way you can teach your own kids..
If your kids have or will have reliable access to RUclips in some capacity, make sure these are some of the videos you show them first.
this video so mediocre like damn just let them go out and talk to people. kids are natural learners dont put a lid on it
Dude, your kids are an extension of you. They copy what they see. Think about that, everything they learn starts from you! So, you learn this first and show them by putting it into practice for them to see. That's all, man. Stay safe out there!
"Listening more than you speak is a skill" YUUUUUUP!
@Icewulf if you never listen people won't feel like talking to you. That may sound like peace but it hurts you more than you probably think
Working at retail gave me this ultimate ability lmao
Try telling that to my Son🙄
I was commenting on when I come across you and all what you just said in your comments is great and amazing, I will like us to been a friend's, is that's okay with you..??

As a tall person, being complimented about being tall isnt exactly an effective conversation starter. Its not something we worked towards or had a choice in the matter, i feel people liked to be recognised for their efforts (height isnt one of them). Also, most of us probably got that alot growing up, so it becomes a boring topic even if you are genuinely sincere about it.
Quite relatable your comment is.
If you're in Asia, it is seen as one of the preferred traits lol. They like tall people there cause 99% of the population are under 5'8".
I was thinking the same thing! I'm also tall and I actually hate when people come up to me and say " your so tall!" I know this I have lived with myself for the last 31 years! lol!

For a person who was and still quarantining...you didn't teach me conversation openers, you actually taught me how to survive when it comes to me going out and need to talk with a human being.
You're very loved Mr.
Too much respect ❤️
James I think you’re a beautiful human being. You teach me the English language beautifully. Every video is an enjoyable watching experience. Thank you!
Years ago I took Dale Carnegie course on "How to Win Friends and Influence People" which taught how to have conversations. Great course material.
This is fantastic. I am a native English speaker but my parents aren’t so even though I know English, I always feel pretty lost and inept with certain social situations and expectations and cues and carrying conversation. James you are an incredible teacher!!

This guy is good, I can only imagine him at a club.
Maybe more of a cafe thing than a club bcs music is often too loud to speak normally and you have to scream in other person's ear in order for them to hear them
No shit. He probably going home with a brod every night😂

This guy's information is solid. But like another person said here above in the comments I don't these tactics are best using a club setting. Got loud music alcohol so many different other factors that don't lend to a real conversation

I’m a native English speaker but James has great videos for everyone.
the sad thing is that im not even from a country that doesnt speak english..i just cant speak to people
MissesKitty same with me
You can. Asocial people need to be immersed in hobby. You can't randomly pop up on someone and ask them where did they get clothing. You need to have a strong on-going hobby that made you and another asocial being close. After "Oh, hi, you're doing this hobby as well.", he or she might reply "Uhh, yeah, umm, I've been doing it for (almost) that many years.". Then you ask a question, he or she reply, and after third question if he or she stays to talk, you'll find a common topics, otherwise he or she will go running away in terror of communication. :D
My advice to improve this is heard a song that you like in English and get the lyrics and follow up and read the song and try to sing with artists, do this couple time daily and you will noticed when you try to talk to somebody is gonna be easier you word is gonna come out right away. Try to get a job in McDonnal or any fast foot merchandise
Maybe you are shy. Let's talk to me

My problem is after the initial questions I am genuinely bored of the interaction as it goes no further than my own interests. Breaking this ingrained habit of losing interest is not easy and it has continued to do harm to my interactions with people.

Thank you!!
Hi James! I love your teaching strategies, so useful. MUCH APPRECIATED!
I usually start my conversation like:
"Hi!
My name is
What?
My name is
Who?
My name is
Chika-chika
Slim Shady!"
Even as an English speaker this is nice advice. I know it may seem weird or odd. But I have an issue with knowing what to say and believe it’s a social anxiety I have where I just don’t say anything. So these really are great tips to get the ball rolling and have a connection made without being about main topic.
We're in the same boat, man. I'm looking for beginners guides to conversations cuz I suck socially, I actually thought up something like a theory for this stuff, I was raised by my mother but she just gave me a phone and let me raise myself.

It’s not “negative” to be shorter, but some people in society make it so.
I don’t like it when some people especially, point out that a man is “so short” and make fun of it.
People can’t help their genetics, what’s wrong with being “short?”
Really tall people probably don’t like hearing all the time, “You are so tall!”
Some people think just because a person is naturally “thin” that they can point it out to them. “Hey, string bean.” But, they wouldn’t like it if some thin person said to them, “Hey, fatty.”
People should be more sensitive on how they approach topics about people’s heights and weights.
being tall is being a "good" thing while its the opposite being short, everyones opinion find that tall people are better than short ones (not mine) so usually calling someone very short or very tall may vary their reply
I speak fluent english, even tho live in Norway. This conversation starters are good, makes me think wow "why didnt i think of that". Easier when said by you, but actually intention and honesty matter as you said. Great vid

Do you have a method for exitting a conversation smoothly, without it being awkward? I'm working on this problem. I just need the basics in order to pick this stuff up.
So is this someone you're romantically interested in or a platonic friend? Either way, brevity is always your friend when trying to pique interest in someone else. In layman's terms, a good but brief conversation would go something like...
You: Hey, what'd you have for dinner?
Other person: Haha, that's a strange question umm I had spaghetti, what about you?
You: I know I just like food, umm I had blah blah.
Other person: Omg I love that food blah blah blah
At this point they'll be genuinely engaged with you, because EVERYBODY likes food. You might think it's weird but I use this exact dialogue all the time including on my current girlfriend (we've now been dating almost 4 years). The number one thing to remember is DO NOT LINGER. Make it seem like you have to be somewhere even if you don't, but whilst you're with the person, give them your undivided attention. Always leave on a good note, don't wait for it to get boring then leave...
Dah Dah Short conversations like: Me: Hey what's up? Other Person: Nothing much. How about you? Me: It's going pretty good. I was wondering if you wanted to hang out on Friday? Other Person: Yeah sure, just let me know a time! Me: (I usually say something, but when someone pauses for a long time and doesn't walk away or back out of a conversation, it gets difficult to continue conversing for me)
Nathan Brannan Art of manliness has a video on it
Ricky K, thanks!
If you and the other person seems to be done talking you can just say it was great talking with you, maybe we can have coffee and talk more later. Or you can just say you have somewhere to be and also say you enjoyed talking with them. You can start with it was great talking and finish with you have to head to wherever you need to go. Example, I enjoyed talking to you. Maybe we can meet again sometime, I have to go to work or class or home. Just be honest. Say what you would if he or she was a good friend.
As an introvert, I found this very helpful! Thanks!
