Hello, and welcome to 20
3
Minutes English for Work podcast.
4
My name is Tom.
5
And my name is Liz.
6
If you understand English but feel nervous when you need to speak at work, you are not alone.
7
Many professionals feel confident reading emails or listening in meetings, but when it's time to speak, the words don't come out,
8
and that can be frustrating.
9
Maybe you worry about making mistakes.
10
Maybe you don't know what to say in daily work conversations.
11
Or maybe you feel like your English sounds too simple.
12
Here's the truth.
13
Simple English is powerful English.
14
You don't need perfect grammar.
15
You need clear, practical, real English for work.
16
In this episode, you will listen to a realistic daily routine conversation at the workplace,
17
place, the kind of conversation you can use tomorrow in your job.
18
Don't worry if you don't understand everything the first time.
19
That's completely normal.
20
After the dialogue, we will explain the phrases step by step, talk about important vocabulary, and share cultural tips from real work environments.

29
Hi Laura, good morning.
30
How are you today?
31
Good morning, Michael.
32
I'm doing well, thank you.
33
A bit busy already, but I feel focused, which helps a lot.
34
How about you?
35
I'm doing well, too.
36
Thanks.
37
I like to start the day by checking in with the team and making sure we're all aligned.
38
It really helps the day run more smoothly.
39
I agree.
40
When I know exactly what I need to do, I feel more confident and less stressed.
41
That's good to hear.
42
So let's talk about today's priorities.
43
What are you working on right now?
44
At the moment, I'm finishing a few emails from yesterday.
45
After that, I was planning to start the daily report, but I wanted to confirm if that's still the main focus.
46
Yes, the daily report should be your top priority today.
47
Management expects it before noon, so it's important that we stay on schedule.
48
Okay, that makes sense.
49
Do you want me to use the same format as usual, or should I change anything?
50
You can keep the same format, but I'd like the explanations to be a little shorter today.
51
Clear and simple is better, especially for busy readers.
52
Got it.
53
Same format, shorter explanations.
54
Thanks for clarifying.
55
No problem at all.
56
And if anything feels unclear while you're working on it, please ask.
57
It's always better to double -check.
58
I'm trying to do that more.
59
Sometimes I hesitate because I don't want to interrupt or ask too many questions.
60
I understand.
61
But asking questions is part of doing good work.
62
It shows responsibility, not weakness.
63
That's reassuring.
64
Thank you for saying that.
65
You're welcome.
66
You're doing great, Laura.
67
Keep going.
68
Thanks, Michael.
69
I really appreciate the encouragement. Of course.
70
Now, about the numbers in the report, do you feel comfortable with them, or would you like to review anything together?
71
I feel mostly comfortable, but there's one section I want to confirm.
72
In the performance comparison, are we using last week's data or the monthly average?
73
Good question.
74
We're using the monthly average.
75
That gives a better overall picture.
76
Okay, that helps a lot.
77
Thanks for explaining that again.
78
Anytime.
79
And just so you know, phrases like, can you explain that again or just to confirm, are very common at work.
80
That's good to hear.
81
Sometimes I worry about repeating myself.
82
Don't worry about that.
83
Clear communication is always better than silence.
84
I agree.
85
It's something I'm working on, especially in English.
86
And you're improving every day.
87
Study English every day, use it at work, and it will feel more natural over time.
88
I'm trying to do that.
89
Even small conversations like this help a lot.
90
Exactly.
91
Real conversations are the best practice.
92
Once I finish the report, should I move on to the pending internal requests?
93
Yes, that would be great.
94
Some of those requests have been waiting, so it's a good idea to review them today.
95
Okay.
96
If I find anything urgent, I'll let you know right away.
97
Perfect.
98
I appreciate that.
99
Keeping each other informed is very important.
100
I agree.
101
Communication really makes a difference.
102
It does.
103
By the way, how are you feeling about managing your time lately?
104
To be honest, sometimes I feel like the day goes by very fast and I don't finish everything I planned.
105
That's very common.
106
What usually helps me is setting realistic goals and accepting that not everything will get done in one day.
107
I think that's where I struggle.
108
I try to do too much at once.
109
Many people do.
110
The key is to prioritize and leave some flexibility for unexpected tasks.
111
That makes sense.
112
I'll try to plan my day with that in mind.
113
Good.
114
Learn something new every day, even about how you work.
115
That's a good mindset.
116
Thanks for the advice.
117
You're welcome.
118
Now, before you start working, is there anything blocking you right now?
119
No, I think I'm good.
120
I just need to focus and get started.
121
Great.
122
When you finish the report, please send it to me so I can review it quickly.
123
Sure, no problem.
124
I'll send it as soon as it's ready.
125
Thank you.
126
I trust your work, and I know you pay attention to details.
127
That means a lot to me.
128
Thank you.
129
You've earned that trust.
130
I'll do my best.
131
I know you will.
132
And remember, you can always say, I'll get back to you if you need more time.
133
That's a useful phrase.
134
Sometimes I feel pressure to answer immediately.
135
There's no need for that.
136
It's perfectly professional to take time to think.
137
That's good to know.
138
It takes some pressure off.
139
Exactly.
140
Work should be productive, not overwhelming.
141
I agree.
142
I feel more confident after talking with you.
143
I'm glad to hear that.
144
Confidence grows with practice.
145
Okay.
146
I'll start working on the report now.
147
Sounds good.
148
Let me know if you need anything. Will do. And Laura.
149
Yes?
150
You're doing great work.
151
Keep going.
152
Thank you, Michael.
153
I will.
154
Now that you've listened to the dialogue, don't worry if you didn't understand everything the first time.
155
That's completely normal.
156
Today, we are going to slow things down for you.
157
We'll review useful phrases, explain important vocabulary, and talk about cultural tips from real workplace situations.
158
The goal here is simple.

161
One phrase at a time.
162
You're doing great already.
163
Exactly.
164
Keep going, study English every day, and trust the process.
165
Now, let's start with the main phrases from the dialogue.
166
Phrase 1.
167
How are you today?
168
Let's start with a very simple but very important phrase phrase, how are you today?

In the workplace, this phrase is more than just a question.
170

171
You can use it when you arrive at the office, when you start a meeting,
172
or when you talk to a colleague for the first time that day.
173
You're not expected to give a long, personal answer.
174
A simple response like, I'm doing well, thank you, is perfect.
175
Another way to say this is, how's your day going? or how are things today?
176
These variations sound natural and friendly.
177
They help create a positive work environment without being too personal.
178
Phrase two, I wanted to confirm if that's still the main priority.
179
This is a very professional phrase.

181
In the dialogue, Laura uses this to check if the daily report is still the priority.
182
This is excellent workplace communication because it avoids mistakes and confusion.
183

For example, just to confirm, is this due today or tomorrow?
185
These phrases are polite, clear, and very common at work.
186
Phrase 3.
187
That makes sense.
188
This is a short phrase, but it's very powerful.

190

191
It tells the other person that you are following the conversation.
192
Another option is, I understand, or, okay, I see.
193
These phrases are very helpful when you're listening more than speaking.

Phrase 4.

Could you explain that again?

201
Or can you go over that one more time?
202
All of these are safe, professional options.
203
Phrase 5.
204
I'll get back to you.
205
This is one of the most useful workplace phrases.
206
It means you need time to check information or think before answering.
207
You don't need to answer everything immediately.
208
Saying, I'll get back to you, is professional and honest.
209

This sounds very responsible.
212
Phrase 6.

219
This phrase is often used by leaders or colleagues who want open communication.
220

221
You might also hear, feel free to ask, or let me know if you have questions.
222
Now that we've explained the main phrases, let's focus on the vocabulary.
223
These are words you will hear every single day in an office or professional environment.
224
Exactly.
225
This is not academic English.
226
This This is real work English, words that help you understand emails, meetings, tasks, deadlines, and conversations with your coworkers.
227
Don't try to memorize everything at once.
228
Just listen, understand the idea, and repeat the examples.
229
You're doing great!
230
Let's start with the word priority.
231
A priority is the most important task or thing that needs attention first.
232
At work, people often talk about priorities because time is limited.
233
You can't do everything at the same time, so you need to decide what comes first.
234
For example, the report is my top priority today.
235
This means the report is the most important task.
236
You might also hear, what's the priority for today?
237
Or this task is not a priority right now.
238
The opposite, or antonym, of priority could be low importance or secondary task.
239
So you might say, this is a secondary task, I'll focus on it later.
240
The next word is deadline.
241
A deadline is the date or time when something must be finished.
242
Deadlines are extremely important at work because they help teams stay organized.
243
Example, the deadline for this report is noon.
244
You can also say, we need to meet the deadline, or the deadline was extended.
245
The antonym of deadline is not very common, but you can think of flexible timing or no fixed date.
246
The verb clarify means to make something clear or easier to understand.
247
At work, people clarify information all the time to avoid mistakes.
248
Example, thanks for clarifying that, or can you clarify this point?
249
This word is very professional and polite.
250
Instead of saying, I don't understand, you can say, could you clarify that?
251
That sounds calm and professional.
252
A follow -up is an action you take after something already happened, like a meeting or an email.
253
For example, I'll send a follow -up email.
254
At work, follow -ups are very important.
255
They show responsibility and organization.
256
You can also use it as a verb.
257
I'll follow up with the client tomorrow." The word review means to look at something again carefully.
258
At work, you review documents, reports, emails, and plans.
259
Can you review this before I send it?
260
This is very common between colleagues and managers.
261
It doesn't mean something is wrong, it just means checking.
262
Now let's talk about something very important.
263
Workplace culture.
264
Because English at work is not only about words, it's also about behavior, tone, and expectations.
265
Understanding these cultural points helps you feel more confident and avoid misunderstandings.
266
Let's start with meetings.
267
In many workplaces, meetings are structured and focused on time.
268
People usually arrive on time or a few minutes early.
269
Being late can be seen as disrespectful.
270
Also, you don't need to speak all the time.
271
Listening is very important.
272
If you don't understand something, it's okay to say, sorry, could you repeat that?
273
That's normal and acceptable.
274
Deadlines are taken very seriously in most professional environments.
275
If you think you cannot meet a deadline, the worst thing to do is stay silent.
276
Exactly.
277
It's much better to say, I may need more time, or can we adjust the deadline?
278
This shows responsibility.
279
Tone matters a lot in English.
280
Direct does not mean rude.
281
Simple does not mean unprofessional.
282
For example, saying, please send the file today, is direct but still polite.
283
You don't need long explanations.
284
In many work cultures, asking questions is encouraged.
285
It shows engagement and interest.
286
Silence can sometimes be interpreted as confusion or lack of interest, so asking questions is positive.
287
Feedback at work is usually direct but respectful.
288
People may say, I think this part could be improved.
289
That's not criticism of you as a person, it's about the work.
290
Learning to separate you from your work is very important.
291
Words like please, thank you, and I appreciate it are very important.
292
They make communication smoother and more respectful.
293
Even small phrases like, thanks for letting me know, make a big difference.
294
Remember, you don't need perfect English to be professional.
295
You need clarity, politeness, and confidence.
296
Keep practicing, keep listening, keep using English at work.
297
You can do this.
298
Now it's time to move from understanding to action.
299
This is the moment where English starts to feel useful, not theoretical.
300
These model sentences are here to help you speak even when you feel nervous.
301
You don't need to create perfect sentences.
302
You just need something clear and professional.
303
Listen, repeat, and imagine yourself using these sentences tomorrow at work.
304
You're doing great.
305
Keep going.
306
Let's start with very common phrases used at the beginning of the workday.
307
Good morning.
308
How are you today?
309
This is polite, professional, and safe in any work environment.
310
I just wanted to check today's priorities.
311
This shows organization and responsibility.
312
I'm reviewing my tasks for today.
313
You can use this when someone asks what you're working on.
314
Another useful sentence is, I'd like to align on what needs to be done first.
315
This sounds professional and shows teamwork.
316
Good morning.
317
Just checking priorities.
318
Reviewing my tasks.
319
Short sentences are okay.
320
Clear is better than complex.
321
Tom, asking questions is part of your job.
322
Here are very natural ways to do that.
323
Could you explain that again, please?
324
Just to confirm, is this for today or tomorrow?
325
Did you mean the weekly report or the monthly one?
326
These sentences help avoid mistakes.
327
You can also say, I want to make sure I understood correctly.
328
That phrase sounds careful and professional.
329
At work, people constantly talk about tasks.
330
I'm working on the daily report right now.
331
This task is my main priority today.
332
I'll finish this first, then move to the next task.
333
These sentences show focus and planning.
334
Tom, you can also say, This is still in progress.
335
Or, I'm almost done with this.
336
You don't need to answer everything immediately.
337
Let me check and I'll get back to you.
338
I need a little time to review this.
339
I'll confirm this and let you know.
340
These phrases protect you from stress.
341
They also sound very professional and responsible.
342
And that brings us to the end of today's episode.
343

345
tasks, deadlines, and how to ask questions politely and confidently.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
