It is time to improve your English speaking skill.
2
And this time, we're going to learn how to make requests in English and how to accept or reject them.
3
Hello, my name is Matty from POC English.
4
And in this lesson, we're going to learn how to make requests and how to accept or reject them.
5
So this video is going to be in two different parts
6
the first part will be about different ways of making requests in English.
7
And the second part will be different ways of accepting or rejecting a request.
8
Plus, I will show you lots of mini dialogues so that you will see how to use the new structures.
9
Let's start with the first part, different ways of making requests.
10
And the first way of making requests in English is to use imperative sentences.
11
What is an imperative sentence?
12
Look at these examples.
13
Bring me a glass of water.
14
Give me a pen or subscribe to my channel.
15
Look at these three sentences.
16
They all begin with a verb.
17
These are examples of imperative sentences.
18
An imperative sentence is used to command or to make a request.
19
Imperative sentences begin with a verb.
20
Close the door, open your box, turn off the light.
21
Using imperative sentences for requests can be the easiest way and at the same time the rudest way.
22
Let me show you a few examples.
23
Close the door please. Be quiet.
24
Don't make any noise.
25
Also turn off the TV and don't ever touch my phone.
26
Okay?
27
How can we make our requests more formal and more polite.
28
Let's start the sentence with can and say can you?
29
Can you answer the phone please?
30
Can you call me this afternoon?
31
Can you get me a cup of coffee?
32
All of these questions begin with can you plus the base form of the verb.
33
To make it even more polite, you can say, can you please?
34
And then base form of the verb.
35
Can you please answer the phone?
36
Can you please call me this afternoon?
37
Can you please get me a cup of coffee?
38
Let me show you some other examples.
39
Huh.
40
Can you please water the plants?
41
Can you please get me some water?
42
Can you please help me with my homework?
43
Want to make this even more formal?
44
Instead of can, use could.
45
Now pay attention.
46
Could is the past of can.
47
But when we use could for requests, this doesn't make the sentence simple past.
48
No, no, no. The sentence is still present, but a polite request.
49
It's more polite and more formal than can you please.
50
Could you please answer the phone?
51
Could you please call me this afternoon?
52
Could you please get me a cup of coffee?
53
How do you make this?
54
It's very easy.
55
Could you or could you please plus the base form of the verb?
56
Could you please subscribe to my channel?
57
Let me show you some other examples.
58
Could you please turn the volume up?
59
Listen, could you please speak up?
60
I cannot hear you.
61
Whoa, could you please clean up the table?
62
Hmm, want to make this even more polite and more formal?
63
Yes, that's possible.
64
Instead of could, use will.
65
Will you please?
66
Will you please bring me a glass of water?
67
Will you please give me a pen?
68
Will you please subscribe to my channel?
69
How to make this sentence?
70
Very easy started with will you or will you please in the base form of the verb.
71

72

82

All right, now let's move on to the second part of this lesson, learning different ways of accepting or rejecting a request.
114
If you want to accept a request, for example, somebody asked you to open the window
115
and you want to say okay here are a few ways you can say sure
116
or sure thing you can say no problem you can also say of course
117
or a very interesting one which i really like you can say consider it done
118
so to accept the request you can say sure
119
or sure thing no problem of course or consider it done could you please answer the phone sure thing
120
Can you turn the volume down?
121
No problem.
122
Will you help me with my homework? Of course.
123
Would you call her tonight?
124
Consider it done.
125
Well, there are many different ways of rejecting a request and saying no. I'm going to divide them to informal, semi-formal, and formal.
126
If you want to reject a request in an informal way, for example, when your friends ask you to do something and you want to say it's not going to happen,
127
you can use these phrases.
128
You can say no way.
129
No way, which means I am not going to do that, my friend.
130
You can also say, that's not gonna happen.
131
That's not gonna happen.
132
And you can say, in your dreams.
133
In your dreams.
134
Let me show you some examples.
135
Can you answer the phone?
136
No way.
137
Hey, turn the volume down.
138
That's not gonna happen.
139
Go get me a cup of coffee. In your dreams.
140
a very easy way of rejecting a request is to say no
141
but saying no alone it's kind of awkward right you want
142
to come up with some explanation why you are rejecting the request
143
so you can use these two semi-formal structures after no
144
so you can say no but why it's just that it's just that and then you come up with a reason.
145
Or you can say, no, the thing is, and then you come up with the explanation.
146
No, it's just that.
147
No, the thing is, let me show you some examples.
148
Hey, turn the volume down.
149
Uh, no, it's just that this is my favorite show.
150
Will you close the windows?
151
No, the thing is, I'm actually hot.
152
What if you want to say no and reject a request but in a formal way?
153
In this case, you can use this phrase, I'm afraid.
154
For example, I'm afraid not, I'm afraid I can't, I'm afraid I can't do this.
155
Or you could say, I'm sorry, but, and then come up with the explanation.
156
I'm sorry, but I can't close the windows because it's too hot in here.
157
Let me show you some other examples would you mind helping
158
me with my homework i'm afraid i can't see i'm kind of busy myself
159

Kontext und Hintergrund

Die Video-Lektion von Matty aus POC English konzentriert sich auf eine zentrale Fähigkeit im Englischen: Anfragen stellen und sie akzeptieren oder ablehnen. Ob im Alltag, im Beruf oder in sozialen Situationen – die Art, wie wir Anfragen richten, beeinflusst die Kommunikation maßgeblich. Die Lektion gliedert sich in zwei Teile: verschiedene Wege, Anfragen zu formulieren, und Möglichkeiten, sie zu beantworten. Zudem werden Mini-Dialoge gezeigt, um die Strukturen praxisnah zu veranschaulichen.

Top 5 Sätze für die tägliche Kommunikation

  • Bring me a glass of water (Imperativsätze: Einfach, aber manchmal unhöflich – ergänze please für mehr Höflichkeit!)
  • Can you please answer the phone? (Höflicher als reiner Imperativ, ideal für den Alltag)
  • Could you please call me this afternoon? (Noch formeller als can you – could macht die Anfrage höflicher, ohne eine Vergangenheitsbedeutung zu haben)
  • Can you please help me with my homework? (Praxisnah für schulische oder private Situationen)
  • Don't make any noise (Negative Imperative: Achtung, ohne please kann dies unhöflich klingen!)

Schritt-für-Schritt-Shadowing-Anleitung

Um deine Englisch-Sprechfertigkeiten mit diesem Video zu verbessern, nutze das Shadowing-Verfahren – eine effektive Methode, um Aussprache, Rhythmus und Intonation zu trainieren. So geht's:

  1. Höre zu: Spiel den ersten Teil des Videos (bis zu den Imperativsätzen) ein und konzentriere dich auf die Intonation. Merke dir, wie please die Höflichkeit steigert.
  2. Wiederhole sofort: Pausiere das Video und wiederhole die Sätze direkt nach Matty. Versuche, die gleiche Tempo und Betonung zu nehmen – auch wenn es am Anfang schwierig ist. Englisch Shadowing funktioniert am besten, wenn du nicht zu lange überdenkst.
  3. Analysiere die Formen: Vergleiche can you und could you. Beachte, wie could die Anfrage formeller macht, ohne die Zeit zu verändern. Übe beide Formen in verschiedenen Szenarien (z. B. im Büro oder zu Hause).
  4. Übe mit Dialoge: Nutze die Mini-Dialoge im Video, um Rollenspiele zu machen. Stell dir vor, du bist in der Situation und formuliere die Anfragen selbst. So trainierst du, Englisch sprechen üben in realen Kontexten.
  5. Prüfe deine Aussprache: Nutze ein Aufnahmegerät, um dich selbst aufzuzeichnen. Vergleiche deine Version mit dem Video – wo kannst du Englische Aussprache verbessern? Vielleicht an der Betonung von answer oder call.

Mit regelmäßiger Übung wirst du merken, dass du Anfragen souveräner und natürlicher stellst. Shadow speech hilft nicht nur, die Sprache zu lernen, sondern auch, selbstsicherer zu werden.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
