Spoken English is the speech that is used in everyday environments. These are the sayings and phrases that native speakers say in a store, at home, while meeting with friends, at a party, etc. Standard spoken phrases in English can be divided into several categories, such as ''Home and family'', ''Greetings'' '', ''Apologies'', ''Weather'', ''Hobbies'', ''Dating'', etc.

It is important to note that colloquial phrases in English can be one word ( Hello!, Hi!, Welcome!), and a combination of several words ( to tell you the truth, see you later, wish you a great day). We will give examples of basic colloquial phrases in English with translation, make interesting sentences with them and play out several situational examples. Go!

Conversational phrases in English: everything you need to know to keep the conversation going

So what is spoken English? Colloquial vocabulary of the English language is a kind of speech patterns, standard phrases that we use every day in our speech. The peculiarity of this type of English is that we use common colloquial phrases every day without thinking about what we said. The fact is that for a basic conversational level you need to know a minimum of vocabulary and grammar.

This is not a strict official speech, where speech structures must be thought out to the smallest detail. The main thing here is to preserve the meaning and to ensure that one necessary phrase is interconnected with the other and complements it. This way you can talk to foreigners easily and without embarrassment.

We suggest learning basic colloquial phrases for everyday communication using tables. Below are a few suggestions to consolidate the result.

English greetings and farewells

How to start a conversation in English? That's right, using words of greeting. In the table below, we consider the most popular options:

Good afternoon	Good afternoon
Good morning	Good morning
Good evening	Good evening
Hi!	Hello!
Hello!	Hello! (Hello!)
See you tomorrow!	See you tomorrow!
Good bye (Bye)	Bye!

Note! These phrases are appropriate to use exclusively in a conversational environment. Such friendliness is not suitable for an official style. Even if you are on good terms with your colleagues at work, it is better to leave familiarity for cafes and at home, and at work you should adhere to corporate rules and appropriate official communication.

Reference: in addition to classic phrases for speaking English, there are also other options, for example, book ones. In this case, a striking example would be the word farewell, which means ‘ 'Goodbye''. When we talk about this word, the masterpiece of Ernest Hemingway comes to mind AFarewelltoArms, or AfarewelltoGuns, as it is also known. The essay can be translated into Russian as “Farewell to Arms.” It follows from this that the word farewell- more of a book version than a colloquial one. Just take note of this word for yourself.

After we have greeted each other, to keep the conversation going, it is customary to ask how the other person is doing. For this, there are also standard phrases for communicating in English:

Note! After you have answered Good,Fine or simply Ok, it is appropriate to add Thank you, or a simplified version of the phrase Thanks. These are basic rules of politeness that everyone should know.

And further: remember that phrases like How are you? - a basic example of greeting, which is as appropriate as washing your hands before eating. This does not mean that the person who says the phrase is really interested in your life. It's just a greeting, nothing more. In this case, you need to answer briefly Fine,thanks, and under no circumstances complain about life! In America this is considered a sign of bad taste. This is not accepted. Personal conversations should be left for friendly conversation when talking with girlfriends at evening gatherings.

Phrases for expressing your opinion

The English language is very bright and colorful, and it is colored by the individual words and phrases that we use in our conversation. Some of these phrases are words to express confidence or, conversely, uncertainty.

Let's look at some options :

Be careful with the phrase I bet. This means that you are so sure of something that you are willing to argue. When we say I am certain, it means that you are very sure of something. But the phrases I am really pretty sure, I am absolutely sure are purely colloquial. When writing dialogues, be careful what you say.

Here are a few examples to better explain the situation:

We have a lot of things to do before we leave but we will visit all our friends, by all means => We have a lot of things to do before we leave, but we will visit all our friends by all means became.
I am really pretty sure that this girl was in our school canteen several days ago => I am really quite sure that this girl was in our school canteen several days ago.
Do you think that this is our new teacher? – Yes, I am asbolutely sure => Do you think this is our new teacher? - Yes, I'm absolutely sure.
I am certain that these questions will be on agenga today => I am convinced that these questions will be on the agenda today.
These boys are no doubt the examples of real gentleman => These guys are undoubtedly examples of real gentlemen.
These people are by no means be blamed => These people should not be blamed under any circumstances.

Expressing uncertainty

Note! I guess has a synonym – I think. Both options are used when the speaker is not entirely sure of what he is saying. But... The first option means - I guess, the second - I think. In any case, the parallel between them is quite subtle and both options are appropriate when a person is in uncertainty. But! There is still a slight difference. The fact is that I guess is an informal option that is typical of American English. In the British English phrasebook we see the option I think. Spoken English for beginners, as you can see, also has its own nuances. Therefore, be careful when you start speaking in general phrases.

Another pair of synonyms - maybe/perhaps. Both words mean => maybe, maybe. The only difference: maybe– an option more for oral speech. The word is also used in written style, but purely in a conversational environment. At that time perhaps is more formal and is often used in writing.

Here are a few examples for a better understanding:

I think she knows better than you. Last time she did her best, as always => I think she knows better than you. Last time she did everything as best as possible, as always.
I guess we would better buy white flowers. I always see them in your sister’s bedroom => I think we should buy white flowers. I always see them in your sister's bedroom.
Maybe your parents will be tolerant and agree to take this homeless dog => Maybe your parents will be tolerant and agree to take this homeless dog.
I am not sure they come home tonight => I am not sure that they will come home tonight.
You see, the reason is, I am not quite sure, if they really understood the task =>

When we want to express our opinion ( to show/express our opinion), we also use certain words and phrases. They make the conversation more lively and rich.

Let's look at the phrases in sentences:

To tell you the truth, things are much better than you think => In truth, things are much better than you think.
To be honest, your new hair-do is not so good as you wished => To be honest, your new hairstyle is not as good as you wanted.
It seems to me that these guys have all skills to success => It seems to me that these guys have all the skills to succeed.
To my mind, black is not the best way to color the walls => In my opinion, black is not the best way to paint the walls.
In my opinion, you had to study harder to pass this exam. There is no one to blame but you => In my opinion, you should have studied harder to pass the exam. The only one to blame is you.
In my humble opinion, this dress doesn’t suit you any more => In my humble opinion, this dress doesn’t suit you any more.

Expressing consent

Everyone knows that when we agree with something, we say yes. But this is not the only word with which you can express your agreement. Let's look at other words and phrases =>

A few sentences with words and phrases of agreement:

This time I will wear blue dress, and you – red. – Deal! => This time I will take the blue dress and you will take the red one. - Agreed!
We had to add less flour in dough because it is too thick. It won't be delicious. – I agree with you. We added too much flour => We should have added less flour to the dough because it is too dense. It won't be tasty. - Agree with you. We added too much flour.
Will you come with us tomorrow? – Sure! I have nothing to do => Will you come with us tomorrow? - Certainly! I have nothing to do.
There will be a great party tomorrow. And there is a dress code. We all have to wear gorgeous dresses of lilac color. Will you come? – I guess so => Tomorrow there will be a grand party. Dress code announced. We should all be wearing gorgeous purple dresses. You will come? - I think yes.

Reference: word Absolutely means agreement and does not need to be translated as absolutely. It is not right. Correct translation -> I completely agree with you, definitely, of course. The correct option must be chosen based on the context.

Note! There is an interesting phrase in English Ican't (couldn't't)agreemore, which means I couldn't agree more. If you want to make your conversation more colorful and a dry topic livelier, don't neglect interesting expressions.

Let's give an example in a sentence:

This cake is so delicious I want to give you one more piece! — I can't agree more! => This pie is so delicious that I want to give you another piece! – I couldn't agree more!

We disagree

The table shows that the words we use to indicate disagreement are quite interesting. In addition to standard Idon'tthinkso And Ofcoursenot, other phrases are also used in colloquial speech. Let's look at them in sentences =>

Yesterday I saw your girl with another guy! – You must be kidding! She was with me waiting for my parents! => Yesterday I saw your girlfriend with another guy! – You must be joking! She was with me, we were waiting for my parents!
Tomorrow I and your sister will visit our friends. You will stay home cleaning the house. – Nothing of the king. I go with you! => Tomorrow your sister and I will visit our friends. You will stay home and clean. - Nothing like this. I'm coming with you!
Today we are going to bake bread. We have everything we need. Let us start! – Are you kidding? I bought everything for pizza, as you asked me. Give me back my money! => Today we will bake bread! We have everything we need. Let's start! - Are you kidding? I bought everything for the pizza, just like you asked me to. Give me back my money!
I will buy you a beautiful dress for the evening. It costs 10,000 dollars. Are you satisfied with the price? – Absolutely not. I will find another one. This one is too expensive => For this evening I will buy you a beautiful dress. It costs $10,000. Are you satisfied with the price? - Of course not. I'll find another dress. It's too expensive.
I solved the problem in the way we decided yesterday. Everything should be correct. – I don’t agree with you. You have done something wrong. The system works not in an appropriate way. The head is unsatisfied => I solved the problem in the same way as we solved yesterday. Everything must be right. - I disagree with you. You did something wrong. The system is not working properly. The manager is unhappy .

Using such phrases in conversation makes it more beautiful and enjoyable. You should not forget about the elements of politeness even when talking with loved ones and acquaintances. A few examples:

What about your close friends? Don't you want to invite them? We will have a lot of fun! =>What about your close friends? Would you like to invite them? It will be a lot of fun!
Can I offer you one more slice of lemon? This will make your tea more tasty => May I offer you another slice of lemon? This will make your tea more delicious.
Of course this is your deal but I will recommend you to listen to our advice => Of course this is your personal business, but I would advise you to listen to our advice.
Would you like to come with us? We have one more seat in the car => Would you like to come with us? We have one more place in the car.
Why don’t you give all your old things to homeless people? They will be grateful to you! => Why don't you give all your old things to homeless people? They will be very grateful to you!

Important! If I were you -> a phrase from a conditional sentence, its constituent element. Notice how these sentences are formed:

If I were you, I would buy this dress => I would buy this dress if I were you.
I would be silent if I were you => If I were you, I would be silent.

As you noticed, the second part of the conditional sentence is formed by the method would+verb. Wherein If I were you can appear either at the beginning or at the end of a phrase (if you forgot something, grammar will help you repeat the necessary material). The meaning itself does not change when rearranged.

What words to express feelings and evaluate them

We use these phrases for each individual case to compose sentences =>

What the hell! What did you do with my new coat! It is all dirty! => What the hell! What did you do with my new coat! It's all dirty!
I am so glad for you! You were one of the brightest students in the university so you deserve that job! Congratulations! => I'm so happy for you! You were one of the smartest students in the university, so you deserved this job! Congratulations!
Did you bake this cake by yourself? Fantastic! It is so delicious! => Did you bake this cake yourself? Amazing! Delicious!
Hello! How are you? I heard you bought a new house! - Hi! Good, thanks. But it could be better if my wife consulted me before buy this house! => Hello! How are you I heard you bought a new house! - Hello! OK, thank you. But it might have been better if my wife had consulted me before buying this house!
I will not come with you tomorrow. I have not enough money to pay for this journey. – Oh, what a pity! We will bring you a souvenir! => I won't go with you tomorrow. I don't have enough money to pay for this trip. - Oh, what a pity! We'll bring you a souvenir!
Look at my new bycicle! It is the last model! – Cool! I always wanted the same! => Look at my new bike! This is the latest model! - Cool! I've always wanted one like this!
