Hello, dear learners.
2
Here is a small English habit that can make a big difference.
3
Imagine someone asks you, is Anna coming tonight?
4
You are not sure.
5
You think she is coming, but you don't know for cert.
6
A lot of learners immediately say, I don't know.
7
And sometimes that's exactly right.
8
But very often you do know something, you just aren't completely sure.
9
In everyday English, we have simple ways to show that.
10
Instead of giving a hard yes or no, you can say things like I guess, probably, as far as I know, or I could be wrong.
11
Today, you'll practice six of these expressions in real sentences.
12
Let's start with one of the easiest.
13
I guess means, this is what I think but I'm not completely sure.
14
I guess we should leave now before the traffic gets worse.
15
I guess this place gets pretty busy on Friday nights.
16
Now try probably.
17
Use probably when you think something is likely to happen or be true.
18
She'll probably call you back when she finishes work.
19
She'll probably call you back when she finishes work.
20
You're probably right, but let's check before we decide.
21
You're probably right, but let's check before we decide.
22
Here's another very useful one, as far as I know.
23
It means this is true based on the information you have now.
24
You are not promising that you know everything.
25
As far as I know, the meeting starts at 9.
26
As far as I know, the meeting starts at 9.
27
As far as I know,
28
she doesn't work here anymore.
29
Now listen to apparently.
30
We often use it when we learned something from another person, a message, or something we saw.
31
You believe it is true, but the information didn't come directly from you.
32
Apparently, they changed the plan after we left yesterday.
33
Apparently, he didn't get my message this morning.
34
Next is From What I Can Tell.
35
This one is useful when you're looking at a situation and making your best judgment.
36
From what I can tell,
37
everything is working fine now.
38
From what I can tell, they aren't ready to leave.
39
From what I can tell, they aren't ready to leave.
40
And finally, one of the most useful phrases when you want to disagree gently.
41
I could be wrong, but...
42
It doesn't mean you think you're wrong.
43
It simply shows that you're open to another possibility.
44
I could be wrong, but I think he's already gone.
45
I could be wrong, but this sounds like the best option.
46
You don't need to sound completely sure to sound natural.
47
Sometimes, I guess, probably, or I could be wrong is exactly what real English sounds like.
48
So don't aim for perfect answers.
49
Aim for honest, natural English, one phrase at a time.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
