As an autistic adult who struggled speaking as a kid, this is really helpful. My mom didn't speak politely so I've been trying really hard to re-learn the way I speak so it's not so harsh and blunt. Thanks a lot!!

Yes, every language has different signals to indicate politeness. Understanding how to translate it from one culture and language to another takes quite a bit of understanding and self checking!

@lowellcunningham3332 3 жыл бұрын

The easiest way to make a request polite is to say "please" when making the request, and "thank you" when the request is granted. "Please open the door for me." "Thank you/Thanks!" Another way to say "no" to an invitation is to show that you wish you could accept. Similar to the example in the video, just adding something like "If only you'd asked me sooner." (Invites the day before an event are REALLY short notice!) One other area to show extra politeness or respect is when you see a stranger in need of help, especially someone with physical challenges. Many people don't want help or are embarrassed to ask, so it's always better offer your assistance as an option. "Would you like some help with that?" "Mind if I help?" "I could hold the door for you if you'd like."

Thank you Emma for this lesson!! My favorite phrase is would you mind, and the most difficult to pronounce was what do you think about. Shall we open the door? Is that a good example to sound polite?. I'd like to see a video about comparatives and superlatives. Would you mind making one for us? Thank you. 💖

However, there has a massive change since I’ve known you. I stick your lesson in my daily activities. Step by step, now, I feel that I have more confidence in both listening and English. Once again, I relly want to express my grateful for you. Love you 3000❤️❤️❤️

@Arnankhan Жыл бұрын

Great tips! My favorite suggestion is to ask "would you open the door for me?" because it' sounds very polite and will allow to to build rapport. The suggestion that I found the trickiest was how to say "no" politey. I found this the most difficult because I didn't expect that by saying "i'm afraid" that I will soften the tone of my voice.

@serhatyenican Жыл бұрын

Thanks for your awesome video! It really helped. I haven't read and checked all the comments, so I'm not sure whether someone has already written that 'I would, if I could' is also a good option to say 'no' politely.

Emma, I came up with a new technique to practice my English. I use the "Windows voice recorder" as I watch your videos and in that way, I can have a parameter to see whether or not I'm speaking like you, and the best part of it is that recently I installed Grammarly to make my English writing sharper just as you said. I enjoyed this lesson a lot, and I'm feeling excited right now. Thanks for everything.

Hi Emma, how's it going? My favorite is...all of them😊 Great phrases, excellent pronunciation practice. POLITE REQUEST: 1. would you mind explanning the lesson one more time? 2. If it's ok with you, could you make more grammar videos? 3. If you get the chance, could you explain the future perfect? 4. when you have a minute could you reply to my message? POLITE SUGGESTIONS: 1. What if we took* the class together? 2. How about we took/take* the class together? 3. Why don't we take our breakfast? 4. What do you think about practicing one more time. SAYING "NO" POLITELY: 1. I'm afraid I can't make it. 2. Unfortunatelly, I can't make it. 3. It's unlikely I can't make it. 4. I doubt it if can't make it. 5. I'm not sure I can make it. Question: * in the polite siggestion: what if we "moved" and how about we "took" the verb is always in past simple or could be in present simple too? Thank you Emma. You're the best!! Keep it up!!

@susanma4899 2 жыл бұрын

Hi. Let me correct the sentences that are wrong: 2. How about we take the class together? (you cannot use "took" here.) 3. Why don't we have our breakfast? and later, 3. It's unlikely I can make it. 4. I doubt if I can make it.

Hey Emma, as usual, your video is very helpful. It's always a pleasure to learn with you. These ways to say no politely are very useful because it's not simple to don't hurt someone who invites us. Thank you so much for that! I love your English, you don't have an Australian accent. I went to Australia two years ago, and it was very hard to understand their English! Maybe I have to improve my understanding for the next time I'll go there? I hope so.
