No way!

What is he doing?

Yeah, and he smiled!

You should have said something!

Come on, let's grab coffee and keep an eye on this!

Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel, where learning English is easy and fun.

I'm Emily.

It is so good to be here today.

Hello to all our friends watching and listening.

I am very happy to see you, Emily.

How is your morning going?

Oh, it is going very well, Paul.

I had a very big breakfast, so I have a lot of energy for our podcast today.

That is great.

I only had a small apple, so maybe I need more energy.

But talking to you always makes me feel excited to teach.

You are always so positive, Paul.

That is why our students love you.

Today, we have a very interesting topic.

It is about something that happens to everyone.

Oh?

Is it about traveling?

Or maybe about cooking?

No, it is about small talk and seeing friends.

But it is also about secrets and drama.

Ooh, I love a good story.

Drama makes life interesting, doesn't it?

It really does.

We are going to listen to a conversation between two friends, Chloe and Rachel.

They are at a cafe and they see someone they know.

This sounds like a movie.

I am ready to listen.

Are you ready, everyone?

Let's hear what Chloe and Rachel are talking about.

Hey, Rachel.

Chloe, hi!

Oh my gosh, it's been forever.

I know, right?

Hey, you won't believe what I just saw.

What happened?

Daniel?

Wait, what? Where?

Right over there, near the cafe.

No way!

What is he doing?

Shh!

Talking to two girls.

You're kidding.

Again?

Yep.

And listen, same lines as always.

Ugh, seriously?

I've been so busy with work.

Oh wow, he really has no creativity.

None.

I almost laughed out loud.

Did he see you?

Yeah, and he smiled like everything's normal.

Wow, the confidence.

I know, right?

I just looked at him like, hmm, really?

You should have said something.

Oh no, I prefer to watch the drama.

Honestly, same.

Come on, let's grab coffee and keep an eye on this.

Okay, let's go.

Wow, that was a very juicy conversation, Paul.

It really was.

Poor Daniel.

Everyone is watching him and he doesn't even know it.

Well, he is using the same lines with everyone.

That is why they are laughing.

You are right.

There were so many great expressions in that dialogue.

Let's talk about them naturally.

I love that idea.

The first thing Rachel says is, oh my gosh.

Ah, yes.

Oh my gosh is so common.

We use it when we are surprised or excited.

Exactly.

Like if I see a beautiful bird in the park, I might say, oh my gosh, look at that.

Or if I see a very high price for a shirt in a store, oh my gosh, $50 for a t-shirt?

Yes, exactly.

It is a very soft way to show surprise.

And then she says, it's been forever.

This is one of my favorite things to say to friends.

Me too.

It doesn't mean a thousand years, right?

No, no. It just means a long time.

Maybe a few months or a year.

I actually said that this morning, Paul.

I saw my neighbor, Mr. Wilson.

I haven't seen him since the winter.

Oh, what did you say to him?

I said, Mr. Wilson, hi, it's been forever.

How are you?

He was so happy to see me.

That is a great story.

100

It shows that forever is just a way to say I missed you.

101

Mmm, wait a second, Paul.

102

I think there is a small fly near my microphone.

103

Oh!

104

Don't let it speak.

105

It doesn't know English.

106

Okay, I think it flew away.

107

Sorry about that.

108

No problem.

109

That was a funny surprise.

110

Like Chloe's surprise when she saw Daniel.

111

Yes!

112

Chloe says, you won't believe what I just saw.

113

This is such a good way to start a conversation if you have a secret.

114

It makes the other person want to listen immediately.

115

You won't believe it.

116

If you tell me that, Emily, I will stop everything I am doing to listen to you.

117

Good to know.

118

I have another story about that.

119

Last week, I was walking.

120

And what happened?

121

Did you see a celebrity?

122

No, even better.

123

I saw a cat wearing a small hat and sitting on a bicycle.

124

No way.

125

Seriously?

126

Yes.

127

I called my sister and said, you won't believe what I just saw.

128

That is amazing.

129

A cat in a hat.

130

I love it.

131

It was very cute.

132

But in our dialogue, Chloe sees Daniel, and Rachel says, no way.

133

No way is perfect for when you are shocked.

134

You don't believe the news.

135

Right.

136

It is like saying, that is impossible.

137

I use it a lot.

138

For example, if you tell me that there is no more coffee in the world, I would say, No way!

139

I need my coffee!

140

Oh, Ball, you and your coffee.

141

We would all be in trouble without it.

142

Speaking of coffee, they decide to grab coffee at the end of the story.

143

Grab coffee.

144

I like that expression.

145

It sounds very casual and fast.

146

Yes.

147

We don't always say, let us go and sit down to drink a cup of coffee.

148

No, that is too formal.

149

Let's grab a coffee is what friends say.

150

You can grab many things.

151

You can grab a sandwich or grab a seat.

152

That's true.

153

Yesterday I was so busy at work that I only had 10 minutes for lunch.

154

Oh no, that is not much time.

155

What did you do?

156

I just had to grab a quick salad from the shop next door and eat it at my desk.

157

At least you had something to eat.

158

Grabbing a meal is very common for busy people.

159

If you are enjoying this conversation and learning these expressions, don't forget to like the video, subscribe to the channel, and share it with a friend who is learning English.

160

Yes, please.

161

It helps us a lot, and we love having you here with us.

162

Actually, we have a question for you.

163

If you are still listening, comment CAFE below.

164

I want to see how many people like CAFES as much as we do.

165

Comment Cathay right now.

166

Good one, Paul.

167

Now, let's go back to Daniel.

168

Chloe said he was using the same lines as always.

169

Lines.

170

This is a funny word here.

171

It's not a line on a paper.

172

No, it means the same stories or the same excuses.

173

Daniel says, I've been so busy with work.

174

That is his line to talk to girls.

175

And Rachel laughs because he has no creativity.

176

Yes, he says the same thing to everyone.

177

That's not very smart, Daniel.

178

I had a similar situation at my old job.

179

There was a man who always came late to meetings.

180

Oh, I know people like that.

181

What was his excuse?

182

Every single time he said, the traffic was terrible today.

183

Every day?

184

Even on Sundays?

185

Yes.

186

One day I wanted to say, that's the same line as always, get a new story. That is so funny.

187

I've been busy or the traffic was bad are very common lines.

188

They really are.

189

And when Chloe saw him, she said she almost laughed out loud.

190

Laugh out loud.

191

We see this on the internet as LOL, right?

192

Exactly.

193

But in real life, we say, I laughed out loud when something is very, very funny.

194

Like your story about the cat in the hat.

195

I think I would laugh out loud if I saw that too.

196

It was hard not to.

197

But Chloe stayed quiet because she wanted to watch the drama.

198

Rachel says seriously when she hears about Daniel.

199

Seriously is a great word.

200

You can use it as a question or to show you are annoyed.

201

Right, like if my computer breaks for the third time today, I say, Seriously?

202

Again?

203

Ugh, I hate it when that happens.

204

It is so frustrating.

205

It really is.

206

But Rachel and Chloe are having fun.

207

They're watching Daniel from far away.

208

Chloe says, I just looked at him like, hmm, really?

209

That really, with a look, is very powerful.

210

It means I know you are lying.

211

Yes.

212

My mom used to give me that look when I was a child.

213

Oh?

214

Did you tell lines to your mom, Emily?

215

Maybe a little.

216

I once told her I cleaned my room, but I just put everything under the bed.

217

And what did she do?

218

She opened the door, looked at the floor, then looked at me and said, Really, Emily?

219

Oh, moms always know the truth.

220

You can't hide anything from them.

221

No, you can't.

222

They have eyes in the back of their heads, as they say.

223

That is another great expression.

224

It means they see everything.

225

Just like Chloe and Rachel, they are going to keep an eye on Daniel.

226

Keep an eye on something.

227

This is an idiom.

228

It is.

229

It means to watch something carefully.

230

Like, if I am at the library and I need to go to the bathroom, I can ask a friend, can you keep an eye on my laptop?

231

Yes.

232

It means please watch it so nobody takes it.

233

Or if you're cooking dinner, you might say, can you keep an eye on the pasta so it doesn't burn?

234

Exactly.

235

It's a very useful phrase for daily life.

236

I once had to keep an eye on my sister's dog.

237

His name is Buster.

238

Is Buster a good dog?

239

He's very sweet, but he loves to eat shoes.

240

I had to keep an eye on him the whole afternoon.

241

Oh, no. Did he eat any of your shoes?

242

No. I was very careful, but it was a lot of work.

243

I can imagine.

244

Dogs can be like children sometimes.

245

They really can.

246

So, Chloe and Rachel are going to keep an eye on the drama.

247

They are very curious.

248

And Rachel says, honestly, same.

249

Same is a very short way to say, I feel the same way, or I agree.

250

Yes.

251

If you say, I am very tired today, and I am also tired, I can just say, same.

252

It's very common with young people, but everyone uses it now because it's so fast.

253

Hmm, I think I use same a lot when we talk about food, Paul.

254

Haha, like if I say, I want a big pizza right now?

255

I would definitely say same.

256

We have very similar tastes in food, I think.

257

We do.

258

It makes it easy to choose a restaurant.

259

Definitely.

260

Wow, Emily, we really talked a lot about this dialogue.

261

We did.

262

It was so full of life.

263

It's much better to learn this way than just reading a book.

264

I agree.

265

Real English is about these small reactions and feelings.

266

Oh, Paul, look at the time.

267

We have been talking for a long time.

268

Wow, you were right.

269

Time flies when you were having fun.

270

It really does.

271

Before we finish, maybe we should remember some of the things we talked about?

272

Good idea.

273

It wasn't a lesson, but we learned so many cool things.

274

Like, it's been forever.

275

I'm going to use that next time I see my cousin.

276

And no way for when things are surprising, like a cat on a bicycle.

277

Yes.

278

And don't forget, grab a coffee.

279

It sounds so much more natural.

280

Oh, and keep an eye on.

281

I need to keep an eye on my watch so we don't talk for three hours.

282

That's true.

283

And I know, right?

284

Chloe used that to agree with Rachel.

285

That's a classic.

286

I use it every day.

287

I know, right?

288

It was a great conversation.

289

I feel like I know Chloe and Rachel now.

290

Me too.

291

They seem like fun people to have coffee with.

292

So, Emily, before we finish, I have an idea.

293

Oh?

294

What is it, Paul?

295

Now that we talked about all the expressions, let's listen to Chloe and Rachel one more time.

296

That's a fantastic idea.

297

I want to see if our friends can understand everything now.

298

I'm sure they can.

299

Let's listen again.

300

Hey, Rachel.

301

Chloe, hi!

302

Oh my gosh, it's been forever.

303

I know, right?

304

Hey, you won't believe what I just saw.

305

What happened?

306

Daniel?

307

Wait, what? Where?

308

Right over there, near the cafe.

309

No way!

310

What is he doing?

311

Shh!

312

Talking to two girls.

313

You're kidding.

314

Again?

315

Yep, and listen, same lines as always.

316

Ugh, seriously?

317

I've been so busy with work.

318

Oh wow, he really has no creativity.

319

None.

320

I almost laughed out loud.

321

Did he see you?

322

Yeah, and he smiled like everything's normal.

323

Wow, the confidence.

324

I know, right?

325

I just looked at him like, hmm, really?

326

You should have said something.

327

Oh no. I prefer to watch the drama.

328

Honestly, same.

329

Come on.

330

Let's grab coffee and keep an eye on this.

331

Okay, let's go.

332

Wow.

333

That felt so much easier to understand this time.

334

Yes, it really did.

335

I understood every single line Daniel used.

336

Poor Daniel.

337

He is the star of our podcast today.

338

Well, Emily, this was wonderful.

339

Do you have a final tip for our friends?

340

Oh yes, I have a small bonus tip.

341

Tell us.

342

I love tips.

343

My tip is, try to use one of these reaction words today.

344

Like, seriously?

345

Or no way?

346

Yes, even if you are just talking to yourself in the mirror.

347

It helps you feel the emotion of the language.

348

That is a great tip, Emily.

349

English is not just words, it's how you say them.

350

Exactly.

351

It's about the feeling.

352

Well, I think that's all for today.

353

I'm going to go and finally eat a real meal.

354

Yes, go eat your lunch ball.

355

You worked hard.

356

Thank you, Emily.

357

And thank you to everyone for being here with us.

358

Thank you all!
