1
Well hey there, I'm Emma from mmmEnglish.
2
If you want to improve your English conversation skills, this lesson is definitely for you.
3
It's actually part two in a series that I've made about small talk
4
so I'm sharing all of the essential phrases and expressions
5
that you need to know to be successful with your small talk conversations in English.
6
In part one, I shared some really useful everyday questions and phrases to talk about work, the weather,
7
hobbies and your free time and I'm definitely going to link to
8
that video at the end but in this one I'm going to dive a little deeper
9
and I'm going to share some useful questions
10
or ideas to help you spark some small talk conversations about news and current affairs.
11
I'm also going to be talking about how to start a conversation at a social event
12
or a networking event when you don't really know anyone there.
13
Awkward.
14
And most importantly, I'm going to talk about how to end
15
that conversation in a relaxed and friendly way so
16
that you've got the opportunity to do it all again sometime in the future.
17
So let's dive in!
18
Discussing news or current affairs can be a really great icebreaker.
19
You just need to make sure you keep it light, okay?
20
So avoiding topics that might cause offence or prompt an argument or a disagreement of some kind.
21
Politics, religion, any sort of strong opinion about something it's best to avoid.
22
Small talk is not the place for that.
23
Start with something simple and the question
24
did you hear about is a really useful one in this situation
25
because you can pick anything relevant that you read in the paper that morning or you heard on the radio, something that is on the news at that moment.
26
Did you hear about the train strike in Melbourne last week?
27
You can also introduce the topic by saying, I read, I read that Point Cook is the most multicultural suburb in Australia,
28
I had no idea or I heard, I heard on the radio that the Queen's visiting next month.
29
In order to really get your conversation flowing though, you need to make sure that you follow up with a question
30
or something that invites their opinion or their thought on whatever you shared.
31
Conversation is two ways, right?
32
So you could always follow up with a question like so what do you think about that?
33
What are your thoughts?
34
How do you feel about that?
35
Hey ladies, do you want to practice English in real conversations with really lovely speaking partners?
36

37

38

39

42
Okay so now I'm going to share a couple of really useful phrases to help you at social or networking events.
43
Sometimes these can be really awkward or uncomfortable places
44
when you're standing with someone that you don't really know and you don't have anything really to talk about.
45
Well if you have a friend or a colleague in common
46
that you both know you can start with that
47
so how do you know Ed otherwise you can try
48
and work out how you might know them
49
or how you're connected have we met before you look familiar you can always try giving a compliment
50
that works really well I love
51
that dress can I ask where you got it from now
52
sometimes you actually meet people who you know quite well over
53
the phone you maybe deal with them a lot via email
54
but you've never actually met in person so a good thing to say at
55
that point is Ah it's great to finally put a face to the name
56
and when you get introduced to someone that you've heard about
57
but you've never met before you can say I've heard so much about you.
58
The best response to this is all good I hope
59
and this just means I hope that everything you've heard about me was good
60
and not bad which sounds a bit funny but it's really common
61
and it definitely helps to relax the conversation with a little bit of humour which is always nice.
62
I hope that everything you've heard about me is good.
63
Now of course a lesson about small talk would not be complete without some phrases to help you end the conversation.
64
This is...
65
Crucial, sometimes it can be the most difficult part.
66
Once you've started and you're thinking yeah okay, this is good, I'm asking you some questions and then okay, I'm running out of things to say now.
67
Abort!
68
Get out!
69
So how do you politely end your conversation and just get back to doing what you were doing?
70
I mean you can't just say okay, bye.
71
That is really awkward and uncomfortable for everyone isn't it?
72
Oh okay bye.
73
If you're at work you can say something like well I'd better get back to work or
74
I'd better get back to it, I'll see you around.
75
At a social event you could say I'd better keep moving it was nice chatting
76
or you can kind of make up an excuse that you need to leave and say something like I'm looking for Jennifer, you haven't seen her around anywhere, have you?
77
I was just looking for the bathroom, do you know where it is?
78
Well I'm gonna go grab a drink, I'll see you in a bit.
79
These last three are a little less direct.
80
I'm not saying okay, I'm done with this conversation now, I don't want to talk with you anymore.
81
I'm just politely moving away to do something else, right?
82
So it doesn't cause offence to the other person that you're talking to, you're just moving along and then you end the conversation comfortably
83
and it makes it easy to come back and start a new conversation with that person at some other time.
84
Well done!
85
A huge high five to you if you got all the way through part one
86
and part two of this series about small talk.
87
If you did, you've learned over 50 phrases and questions
88
and potential answers that will help you to make small talk in English.
89
So all you need to do now is to make sure that you put it into practice.
90
Make sure you do that.
91
Just studying them and learning them and trying to remember them is not going to help.
92
You need to try this out.
93
Do that wherever you speak English, alright?
94
every week so you definitely want to be here when I bring out the next one.
95
For now, let's check out this one together.

  • /v/ — ليس /f/: مع اهتزاز الأوتار الصوتية: dive /daɪv/, everyday /ˈɛvɹiˌdeɪ/, invite /ɪnˈvaɪt/, wherever /(h)wɛɹˈɛvɚ/
  • تتابع الصوامت — لا تضف حركة بينها: phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/, introduce /ˌɪntɹəˈdus/, relax /ɹɪˈlæks/, skill /skɪl/, connect /kəˈnɛkt/

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟

التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
