Hello? Hello, can I speak to Kasia, please?
2
Yes, speaking.
3
Hi, Kasia, it’s Oli here.
4
Oh, hello! I wanted to ask: I need some English phrases for talking on the phone.
5
Do you think you could help me with that?
6
Of course! What do you need to learn?
7
Well, everything, I suppose.
8
No problem!
9
Shall we start?
10
Yeah, why not?
11
Hi, I’m Oli.
12
Welcome to Oxford Online English!
13
Let’s learn how to speak English on the phone.
14
In this lesson, you can learn how to deal with common situations and problems when you’re talking on the phone in English.
15
You’ll see four dialogues, and then we’ll explain the vocabulary and phrases that we use.
16
This way, you’ll learn everything you need to make phone calls in English!
17
Let’s start by showing you how to make an informal phone call, for example to a friend or a colleague you know well.
18
Hello? Oli, hi!
19
Sorry, who’s this?
20
It’s Kasia!
21
Oh, hi! Sorry, didn’t have your number saved.
22
No worries.
23
Listen: some of us are going rafting this weekend.
24
Do you want to come?
25
Wow, that sounds great!
26
Yeah, sure.
27
Brilliant! I’ll text you the details.
28
Okay, cheers for the invite, see you then I guess.
29
Bye! Let’s look at the whole dialogue.
30
What do you notice?
31
First, I answered with a simple hello.
32
This is common if you’re answering the phone informally and you don’t know who’s calling.
33
I also used an informal way to ask who was calling.
34
And I used an informal way to give my name.
35
If you’re calling your friend, don’t say, I’m Kasia Instead, say, It’s Kasia.
36
Next, you can see that Kasia tells me why she’s calling in a very simple way.
37
Also, look at the whole dialogue.
38
It’s quite short, right?
39
This is common in informal phone calls.
40
We don’t ask how are you or anything like that.
41
It’s not bad to ask how are you, of course!
42
But, it’s not necessary in an informal phone call if you know each other well.
43
You can also see many examples of informal language that we both used, for example wow, yeah, cheers, I guess, or using invite as a noun instead of invitation.
44
Finally, we ended the conversation quickly and simply.
45
We used simple, informal goodbye words: see you and bye.
46
Next, let’s look at how can you make a formal phone call, so you can see the difference.
47
Good afternoon, Oxford Online English, how can I help?
48
Hello, could I speak to Michael Hart, please?
49
Who’s calling, please?
50
My name is Oli Redman and I’m calling concerning a proposal which Mr Hart sent to me.
51
One moment, please… I’m afraid he’s not available right now.
52
Would it be alright for him to call you back in about 30 minutes?
53
Yes, that would be fine.
54
And does he have your number?
55
Yes, he called me last week, so he must have it.
56
That’s fine.
57
He’ll call you in half an hour or so.
58
Is there anything else I can do for you?
59
No, that’s all.
60
Thank you for your help.
61
You’re welcome.
62
Thanks for calling, and have a nice day!
63
And to you.
64
Goodbye! Can you see the difference between this and the first dialogue you heard?
65
First, I answered the phone with a longer greeting.
66
Instead of just hello, I used a full phrase.
67
I also said the name of the company—this is common when answering the phone at work.
68
You could also say your full name, like this: Hello, Kasia Warszynska.
69
Or, you could say the name of your manager, like this: Good morning, Anna Gilbert’s office.
70
You can also see that you use different phrases to ask who’s calling, or to say who you are: Who’s calling, please?
71
Or: My name is… In this case, I used My name is... because I was introducing myself for the first time.
72
If you’re talking to someone who you’ve met before, you could use this is and give your name.
73
For example, I could say: This is Oli.
74
Oli also said why he was calling using a longer, more formal phrase: I’m calling concerning… You could also use something like: I would like to ask about… Or: I wanted to discuss … with you.
75
In general, you can see that the dialogue is much longer.
76
We spoke more, and also used longer sentences.
77
You can see many examples of formal language that we both used, like I’m afraid he’s not available, would it be alright to…, or that would be fine.
78
Finally, the goodbye is also much longer.
79
I started ending the call by asking: Is there anything else I can do for you?
80
Compare this to the first dialogue, where we ended the call very quickly and simply.
81
In this dialogue, ending the call took several sentences.
82
We also used more formal goodbye phrases, like: Thanks for your help.
83
Thanks for calling.
84
Have a nice day!/And to you!
85
Or: Goodbye So you can see two important differences here: the language is almost totally different, and also the style is different, because everything is longer.
86
Next, let’s look at another dialogue to see how to deal with a common problem when talking on the phone in English.
87
Hello? Kasia, hi it's Oli.
88
Hi Oli. Sorry, say that again.
89
I said, we’re thinking of going to the cinema.
90
The sound’s very quiet.
91
Can you speak up a bit? Hello?
92
Sorry, I really can’t hear.
93
How about now?
94
Ah, yes, that’s better!
95
Sorry, I’m in the subway, and the signal’s not so good.
96
So, what were you saying?
97
I wanted to say… Hold on, my battery’s about to die.
98
Can I call you back later?
99
Sure, I’ll be free till… First, a question for you: was this dialogue formal or informal?
100
It was informal.
101
Here, you can see some common problems you might have talking on the phone in English.
102
At the beginning, I couldn’t hear Oli’s question.
103
So, I said: Sorry, say that again.
104
You could use many different phrases here, like: What was that?
105
Or: What did you say?
106
In a more formal conversation, you could say something like: I’m sorry, could you repeat that?
107
Or: Could you say that again, please?
108
Next, Kasia couldn’t hear me because the sound was too low.
109
She asked: Can you speak up a bit?
110
Speak up means to speak more loudly.
111
Mrore formally, you could say something like: The sound is low.
112
Would you mind speaking a little more loudly?
113
When speaking formally, you need to be more indirect, which means you need longer sentences.
114
We were having problems because Oli was on the subway.
115
Do you remember what he said?
116
The signal’s not so good.
117
You could also say: I don’t have much signal.
118
Or: There’s not much reception here.
119
Finally, he ran out of battery.
120
He really should have charged his phone before he went out!
121
Hey, that’s not my fault!
122
And anyway, I said I’d call you back.
123
And did you?
124
Finally, what if you call someone, and they’re not there?
125
Hello, OOE productions, can I help?
126
Hello, this is Kasia Warzsynska.
127
I’m calling for Pieter Okker.
128
Is he available?
129
Unfortunately he’s busy at the moment.
130
Would you like to leave a message, or should I get him to call you back later?
131
Um… Can I leave him a message?
132
It’s quite important.
133
Of course. Could you ask him to double check the hotel reservations for the Italy conference?
134
He’ll know what I mean.
135
Very well. Anything else?
136
No, that’s everything, but do please make sure he gets it as soon as possible.
137
I’ll pass your message on as soon as he’s free.
138
Thank you. Would you also like him to call you back?
139
Yes, please.
140
If you could get him to call me at my office, that would be wonderful.
141
No problem at all.
142
Thanks so much.
143
You’re welcome, bye-bye now!
144
Bye! Let’s start with the same question: was this dialogue more formal, or more informal?
145
It was more formal this time.
146
In this dialogue, I wanted to speak to someone, but he wasn’t there.
147
Oli took a message for me.
148
Do you remember the question he asked?
149
He said: Would you like to leave a message?
150
You could also say: Can I take a message?
151
Should I give him a message?
152
What can you say to answer this question?
153
You could say something like: Can I leave him a message?
154
Or: Could you pass on a message for me?
155
Then, give your message: Can you ask him to…?
156
Could you tell her that…?
157
Just let him know that… Here’s a full example: Could you tell her that I’ll be arriving at five o’clock, instead of half seven?
158
You might also say how important your message is, particularly if it is very important!
159
For example: Please make sure he gets it as soon as possible; it’s really important.
160
It’s urgent, so please tell her as soon as you can.
161
If it’s not so important, you could say something like: It’s not urgent, so just let him know when he’s free.
162
Hello? Hi, yeah, it’s Oli again.
163
Hi, Oli! Did you learn everything you needed about how to talk on the phone in English?
164
Yeah, great lesson, thanks Kasia!
165
You’re welcome, glad you liked it!
166

167

169
What did you say?
170
I couldn’t hear you.
171
I said Oxford Online English.com.
172
Ah, great, thanks!
173
No problem, bye!
174

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
