1
Hi, Mikey.
2
Hi, Stephanie.
3
Well, this is awkward.
4
Yeah, it is a bit.
5
We've got nothing to talk about.
6
That's right.
7
I just have no idea what to say to you.
8
I've got an idea.
9
Oh, what's that?
10
Let's do a lesson about how to have a conversation in English.
11
Great idea!
12
Looks like we really need it.
13
Shall we start now?
14
Yeah, why not?
15
Hi, I'm Stephanie.
16
Welcome to Oxford Online English.
17
Do you find it difficult to start conversations in English?
18
Do you feel that you don't know what you want to say?
19
It's common.
20
Speaking a foreign language is hard work.
21
You have to remember foreign words,
22
pronounce sounds which your mouth isn't used to,
23
and now you have to build a conversation, too.
24
In this lesson, you'll see some simple,
25
effective tips to help you start,
26
develop, and end And a conversation in English.
27
Let's start at the very beginning.
28
You'll see three easy ways to start a conversation in English.
29
Hello!
30
My name's Mikey.
31
What's your name?
32
Stephanie.
33
Nice to meet you.
34
Where are you from, Stephanie?
35
So what did you think of the film?
36
It was… interesting.
37
Does that mean you didn't like it?
38
I'm glad I saw it,
39
but I wouldn't watch it again.
40
Oh, hey, I saw some of your pictures from your trip.
41
They're amazing!
42
Thanks for saying so.
43
What kind of camera do you use?
44
Actually, I just use my phone.
45
First of all, if you don't know the other person,
46
of course you should introduce yourself.
47
It can be awkward if you start talking,
48
and then you realise an hour later that you don't know the other person's name.
49
We saw three ways to start a conversation.
50
What were they?
51
1. Ask a simple question.
52
What's your name?
53
Where are you from?
54
What do you do?
55
2. Make a comment or ask a question about the situation you're in.
56
That looks delicious!
57
What is it?
58
What did you think of the film?
59
It's so cold in here! the heating broken?
60
Great party, right?
61
Who do you know here?
62
Three.
63
Compliment the other person.
64
I love your top!
65
Where did you get it?
66
I thought your presentation was really interesting.
67
Oh, you're Mikey?
68
I've heard so many good things about you!
69
Don't think too much about what you say first.
70
When you start a conversation,
71
it's more important to say something,
72
even if it's something very simple.
73
Easy, right?
74
Introduce yourself, say something simple,
75
and you've started a conversation!
76
Next, you need to build the conversation.
77
Where do you go from here?
78
Hey, you're Stephanie, right?
79
Yeah, Mikey.
80
That's right.
81
Peter told me you're in a band?
82
Well, kind of.
83
I play guitar, and we just play together for fun.
84
It's nothing serious.
85
I play the guitar too, actually.
86
Really?
87
What kind of thing do you play?
88
Actually, I play classical guitar.
89
I just do it as a hobby.
90
I'm not that good, but I enjoy it.
91
That's the important thing.
92
Anyway, how do you know Peter?
93
We used to work together,
94
and we stayed in touch.
95
Here, you saw three useful things you can do to build a conversation in English.
96
Do you know what they were?
97
They're all very simple.
98
Anyone can use them.
99
First idea, make a reference to something you have in common.
100
For example, do you know that the other person is a football fan?
101
Ask who do you support?
102
Or did you see the city game on Sunday?
103
Or what's your prediction for the cup final next weekend?
104
If you meet someone while you're travelling,
105
you could ask, where are you going to next?
106
You went to Rome?
107
Any recommendations?
108
Do you know any good places to eat around here?
109
We said that you saw three ways to continue a conversation.
110
What's the second one?
111
Ask the other person about themselves and their life.
112
People generally like to talk about themselves,
113
and they like it when other people are interested in them,
114
so this can be very effective.
115
For example, your job sounds really difficult.
116
How do you manage everything?
117
I like your pictures.
118
Is that in India?
119
I heard you're really into cooking.
120
What kind of stuff do you like to make?
121
Finally, you can also continue the conversation by referring to someone you both know, like this.
122
How do you know Lisa?
123
Have you known Simon long?
124
You work with Lee.
125
I heard he can be quite difficult.
126
Again, it's more important to say something,
127
even if it's something very basic.
128
When you've just started talking to someone,
129
anything is better than saying nothing.
130
The longer you can keep the conversation going,
131
the more you'll learn about each other,
132
and the more topics you'll have to explore.
133
Let's look at some other important points to think about as your conversation continues.
134
Mikey, hi!
135
How was your trip?
136
Oh, it was great, thanks.
137
Where did you go?
138
Well, we started in Madrid and then...
139
Where did you stay?
140
We found a really great homestay near the centre and...
141
Did you eat tapas?
142
Well, yeah, a couple of times, but...
143
Did you go to the royal palace?
144
No, actually...
145
Why not?
146
Yeah, so, as I was saying,
147
it's basically the best film ever.
148
I mean, people don't rate Michael Bay,
149
but I really think the man's a genius, you know?
150
Mm-hmm.
151
I've seen it twice at the cinema already.
152
The last time I went,
153
it was so loud that I still couldn't hear properly the next morning.
154
I'm still planning to see it again this weekend, though.
155
I love it!
156
You saw two conversations.
157
I hope you realised that these were examples of what not to do when you want to build a conversation.
158
What was the problem in each one?
159
In both conversations, there was a lack of balance.
160
In the first conversation, I was asking too many questions,
161
and a conversation shouldn't sound like a police interrogation.
162
In the second conversation, I spoke too much,
163
even though Stephanie clearly wasn't interested in what I was talking about.
164
What's the point here?
165
For a successful conversation, you need balance.
166
You need to balance asking questions and saying what you think.
167
You need to balance speaking and listening.
168
Let's look at how those conversations could have gone better.
169
Mikey, hi!
170
How was your trip?
171
Oh, it was great, thanks.
172
Where did you go?
173
Well, we started in Madrid,
174
and then we spent a few days in Andalusia.
175
Wow!
176
I love Madrid!
177
What did you think of it?
178
We really liked it.
179
When we were there, we stayed at this really cool guest house near the Parque del Retiro.
180
Did you spend any time around there?
181
Actually, we were staying a bit further out.
182
We did walk past there, though.
183
There are some great places farther out, too.
184
What did you think of the food?
185
Guess what I just saw.
186
What?
187
The new Transformers film.
188
It's amazing.
189
I really think Michael Bay is one of the best directors alive.
190
Are you serious?
191
What?
192
You don't like his films?
193
No. I think a good movie needs to be more than explosions and robots.
194
Oh, that's a shame.
195
I was hoping you'd come to the cinema with me to watch it.
196
I thought you'd already seen it.
197
Yeah, twice.
198
The last time, the sound system was so loud that I couldn't hear properly the next morning.
199
It was great!
200
That doesn't sound healthy.
201
Maybe you should go to a doctor's,
202
and you definitely shouldn't go see it again.
203
Balancing your conversation helps you to keep the other person engaged,
204
which means the conversation will flow easily and naturally.
205
Anyway, let's talk about something else.
206
Sometimes people complain to us about making conversation in English.
207
I don't know what to talk about.
208
Here's the thing.
209
You can talk about almost anything you want.
210
Sometimes the other person isn't interested in what you're saying.
211
Sometimes you're not interested in what the other person's saying.
212
Sometimes neither of you are interested in what you're talking about.
213
This is totally natural.
214
So what should you do?
215
Change the topic, of course.
216
Seen any good TV shows recently?
217
Actually, I don't have a TV.
218
Oh, so, uh, what are you doing this weekend?
219
Do you like traveling?
220
Not really.
221
When I don't have to work,
222
I just stay at home.
223
Anyway, whereabouts do you live?
224
Yeah, I've had this really bad cough for weeks.
225
All this green stuff keeps coming out of me.
226
I don't know when it's going to stop.
227
Mikey, I'm trying to eat.
228
Can we please talk about something else?
229
Oh, sorry.
230
Changing the subject is easy.
231
The easiest way is just to change the subject.
232
If what you're talking about isn't going anywhere,
233
ask a question or make a comment about something
234
It's common to introduce a change of subject with a word like so or anyway.
235
For example, so what are you doing this weekend?
236
Anyway, whereabouts do you live?
237
If you're feeling uncomfortable with a conversation topic,
238
you might clearly ask to change the subject.
239
You can say something like,
240
can we talk about something else?
241
Let's change the subject.
242
I don't really want to talk about that.
243
Remember, if you use phrases like these,
244
you're clearly showing the other person that you're uncomfortable with the conversation.
245
If you say something like this,
246
make sure that you mean it.
247
Finally, let's see one of the most important skills for having good conversations in English.
248
So then I say to her, you must be joking.
249
And she's all like, no. And I'm all like, it's so crazy.
250
And then...
251
Stephanie, I hate to be rude,
252
but I have to be somewhere else.
253
We'll talk later.
254
Okay?
255
Oh, okay.
256
See you later.
257
You're an events manager.
258
That's exactly what I want to get into.
259
I have so many questions.
260
So, What's the best way to get a job with your company?
261
Will you help me out?
262
Listen, it's been great talking to you,
263
but I should get back to work.
264
Can I ask you my questions later?
265
I have so many!
266
Sure, just call me.
267
But I don't have your phone number!
268
Have you finished the debugging work?
269
It's nearly done.
270
Is there any chance you can ask someone to help me?
271
It's a lot of work.
272
I'll see what I can do.
273
Anyway, I won't keep you any longer.
274
Try to have the work done by tomorrow evening.
275
All right.
276
Here, you saw three short conversations with three different ways to leave a conversation.
277
Do you remember them?
278
Here are the three phrases you saw.
279
I hate to be rude,
280
but… It's been great talking to you,
281
but… I won't keep you any longer.
282
You can also add the person's name to make it sound more personal.
283
Stephanie, I hate to be rude,
284
but… Paul, it's been great talking to you,
285
but… You can make these phrases sound stronger by adding a word like look or listen at the start.
286
Look, I hate to be rude,
287
but… Listen, it's been great talking to you,
288
but… Saying it like this adds emphasis and makes it extra clear that the conversation is finishing.
289
After the word but, make an excuse.
290
Stephanie, I hate to be rude,
291
but I have to catch the last metro.
292
Paul, it's been great talking to you,
293
but there are some other people here I need to catch up with.
294
Another good way to leave a conversation is to pretend that you're stopping the other person from leaving.
295
You can say something like,
296
I won't keep you any longer,
297
or I'll let you get back to work.
298
On the phone, it's common to say, I'll let you go.
299
This is a clear signal that the conversation is ending.
300
Then say goodbye, and you're finished!
301
You can see that starting,
302
developing, and ending a conversation in English is quite simple.
303
Use the tips and language from this lesson,
304
and you'll be able to have natural conversations in English easily.
305
Anyway, it's been great talking to you,
306
but we really have to go!

Contexto & Antecedentes
No vídeo "Learn English Conversation - How to Have a Conversation in English", os apresentadores Mikey e Stephanie discutem as dificuldades que muitos enfrentam ao iniciar uma conversa em inglês. Eles reconhecem que começar uma conversa pode ser um desafio, especialmente quando se está aprendendo um novo idioma. A insegurança sobre o que dizer, a pronúncia correta e como manter a conversa fluindo são questões comuns entre os estudantes de inglês.
As dificuldades de se comunicar em inglês
Quando falamos uma língua estrangeira, não apenas usamos palavras diferentes, mas também temos que nos habituar a sons novos e à estrutura da língua. O vídeo oferece dicas para superar esse obstáculo e se sentir mais à vontade na prática de conversação em inglês.
Top 5 Frases para Comunicação Diária
- Olá! Meu nome é Mikey. Qual é o seu nome?
- Prazer em conhecê-lo(a).
- De onde você é?
- O que você achou do filme?
- Quero saber mais sobre sua viagem! Que tipo de câmera você usou?
Essas frases são exemplos práticos que podem ser utilizados em diversas situações do dia a dia. Ao praticar a pronúncia e a entonação, você pode se sentir mais confiante e preparado para interagir em inglês.
Guia de Prática Passo a Passo
Para melhorar sua conversação em inglês, recomendamos o método de shadowing, que envolve repetir o que você ouve na mesma hora. Aqui está um guia passo a passo:
- Escolha um vídeo ou áudio: Selecione um trecho do vídeo de Mikey e Stephanie que você gostaria de praticar.
- Ouça atentamente: Preste atenção à pronúncia, pausa e entonação dos falantes.
- Repita em voz alta: Tente imitar o que você ouviu, usando o shadowing para melhorar sua fluência e confiança.
- Grave sua prática: Grave-se falando para ouvir como você soa e identificar áreas a melhorar.
- Use uma plataforma de shadowing: Utilize um site como o shadowspeak para praticar com materiais que te ajudem a desenvolver suas habilidades.
Seguindo essas etapas, você estará cada vez mais próximo de se tornar um falante confiante e fluente da prática de conversação em inglês. Lembre-se, a prática leva à perfeição!
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
