Hello my adventurous students.
2
Today you're going to learn all the phrases you need to know before traveling to North America.
3
Welcome back to JForrest English.
4
Of course, I'm Jennifer.
5
Now let's get started.
6
So your bags are packed and you're ready to visit North America.
7
Let's talk about all the phrases that you need, starting with greetings.
8
Now as a tourist, you're going to be using these greetings when you go to stores, restaurants or interact with service providers.
9
Like when you rent a car, Oregon book a tour, you can simply say hello because for more in personal interactions when you don't know the person socially, we just say hello.
10
That's the standard greeting in these situations.
11
You could also say hi there, so add there.
12
Hi there. Hi there.
13
When you go into a restaurant, a store.
14
Hi there. Of course you wouldn't wave.
15
I'm just doing that.
16
Well, I guess you could.
17
Hi there. Hello.
18
Now time is specific, you could say.
19
Good morning, good afternoon or good evening.
20
Don't say goodnight because that's what we use before you go to sleep.
21
So after 4:00 to 6:00 PM you can say good evening.
22
Now only for morning native speakers we drop the good and we just say morning, morning, but we don't say afternoon.
23
You always say good afternoon, good evening, but you can simply say morning morning.
24
Now after your greeting you can state your reason for your visit.
25
So if you're at a restaurant, you can say hi there.
26
We have a reservation under forest.
27
Usually the reservations are made under your last name for 7:00 PM.
28
You could include the time, but you don't need to because the reservation will have the time.
29
Or you could approach booth and say good morning.
30
Could you please tell me when the next ferry to Staten Island comes?
31
Notice how I use, could you please?
32
That's to sound more polite.
33
Now don't worry about taking notes because I summarize everything in a free lesson PDF.
34
You can look in the description for the link.
35
How about this one?
36
Excuse me, Do you carry sunscreen?
37
Do you carry?
38
You're asking the store if they have.
39
Do you carry sunscreen?
40
Now notice, excuse me, this isn't necessarily a greeting, but it's what we use to get someone's attention.
41
So if the store person is stalking a shelf, you can say excuse me and then they will stop what they're doing and look at you.
42
So it's used to get attention.
43
Now, technically you can say, pardon me, pardon me, do you carry sunscreen?
44
But pardon me isn't very common in North America in this context.
45
In North America we use pardon me if we don't understand something.
46
So if someone's talking to me and maybe there's a lot of background noise, I might say, pardon me to ask them to repeat themselves.
47
But we don't really use it to get someone's attention, so just use excuse me to get someone's attention.
48
Now let's review all the phrases you need if you don't understand someone or if you don't hear them because there's a lot of background noise or maybe they just spoke very quietly.
49
Like I said, pardon me, pardon me.
50
Now you can also say excuse me, but it's more in a questioning tone.
51
Excuse me, sorry, I didn't catch that.
52
Now you can always say sorry, English isn't my first language, so you're giving them the information they need to know so they can adjust.
53
Because if you tell a native speaker, oh, sorry, English isn't my first language, they'll naturally just try to speak slower or louder or in a different way to help you understand.
54
And don't be afraid to say can you repeat that slower, please?
55
The person will not be offended or upset if you say that, so don't be afraid to use it.
56
Or you can say sorry.
57
I'm not sure what MMM means that means or if you know the specific word you can say.
58
I'm not sure what a transfer means.
59
Can you explain it a different way?
60
Can you give me more information?
61
Can you help me understand?
62
Or simply you can say sorry, I don't understand.
63
English isn't my first language and they will naturally know.
64
They need to speak slower, louder, or explain it a different way.
65
Can you repeat that, please?
66
I'm sorry, I didn't catch that.
67
As a tourist, you're going to be spending money at stores.
68
So let's talk about the phrases you need when you go into a store or when you take all of your items to check out.
69
When you're ready to pay, you can just say hi there or any of the other greetings.
70
Now previously the stores would ask you cash or credit, but this isn't common in North America today.
71
It's assumed you're going to pay with a credit card, so they generally don't ask you about the payment method.
72
They will probably just point at the machine and then you can tap your card cash credit.
73
Now there are some St.
74
vendors. A street vendor would be a small shop or something that isn't a physical store.
75
It is possible that they only accept cash, but this is becoming less and less common.
76
Basically everywhere you go in North America you can pay with your card.
77
Even the smallest St.
78
vendors, because they have a little device they put on their phones and then their phone turns into a payment processor and you just tap your card on the phone.
79
So even at very small vendors, you can likely pay with your card, but of course bring a little cash with you.
80
You can ask how much is this for one item?
81
How much are these for?
82
Two or more items now.
83
After you pay, they might ask you do you need a bag now?
84
They might say need a bag or simply bag with a rising intonation to show it's a question.
85
Plastic bags are not used at most stores in North America.
86
They are banned for environmental reasons.
87
So if you need a bag, most likely you have to pay for that bag.
88
Instead of plastic stores, use paper bags and they're probably about $0.15 per bag.
89
Or you can get a reusable bag depending on the quality 1 to $3.00.
90
A lot of smaller stores, convenience stores, markets, they still use plastic bags but the bigger stores generally don't.
91
But you can always ask them can you give me a bag please or I need to buy a bag.
92
Now sometimes I hear students say please I need to buy a bag and they put please at the beginning of a statement but that is not common in North America and it sounds a little awkward.
93
So put please at the end.
94
I need to buy a bag please.
95
Please commonly comes at the beginning when it's the imperative.
96
So you're giving an instruction.
97
Please put the receipt in the bag.
98
Put the receipt in the bag is the instruction and you can add please at the beginning to sound more polite.
99
You could also add it at the end after you pay.
100
They might say do you need want a receipt?
101
Again, to try to be more environmental and save paper, they don't automatically print receipts.
102
They might just say, need a receipt, Want a receipt or receipt?
103
You can say no, that's OK.
104
No thanks. Yes, please.
105
Now, right before you pay, they might say something really long that you don't understand.
106
They may be asking you for a donation, which is very common.
107
Do you want to donate $1.00 to the Children's Hospital?
108
They might ask you if you have a Points or Rewards membership with that store.
109
Or they might ask you if you want to sign up for something like a Walmart MasterCard or a Points card or a membership.
110
If you don't understand, just say no thanks.
111
No, thanks.
112
Because they're probably just trying to give you something additional.
113
Now if you go into a clothing store or a larger store, they will greet you and they'll ask you if you're looking for something specific.
114
You can say I'm just looking, I'm just browsing, But in North America, looking is more common.
115
I'm just looking.
116
Thanks. Well, thanks.
117
I'm just browsing.
118
Oh, I'm just looking, Thanks.
119
Or if you are looking for something specific you can say I'm looking for a small backpack.
120
Where can I find men's socks?
121
Do you carry sunglasses?
122
If you're buying clothing, you can ask where can I try this on?
123
Where are the fitting rooms, the changing rooms, which is where you try things on?
124
You can also ask them what's your return policy to know if the item is returnable or exchangeable.
125
Now let's talk about dining out at restaurants.
126
When you go to a restaurant, you can use your greeting.
127
Hello. Hi there.
128
Good afternoon.
129
Table for two please.
130
Or you can state we have a reservation under and then your name.
131
Generally just your last name under forest.
132
Or maybe you want to make a reservation.
133
Can we make a reservation and they'll ask you when or what day, how many people and what time?
134
Table for two please.
135
Now if you're staying at the restaurant, you can ask them, do you have any tables outside?
136
Do you have any tables on the patio?
137
So they mean the same thing.
138
The patio or outside is an area that is outside.
139
So you have inside or outside.
140
Outside is on the patio.
141
And if you're inside and you see this really nice table by the window, you can say can we sit by the window please?
142
Are there any booths available?
143
So maybe they're putting you at a table with chairs, but you want to sit it in a booth.
144
Just ask them.
145
Are there any booths available?
146
If you have any allergies, you can tell your server I'm allergic to.
147
I'm allergic to shellfish.
148
Or maybe you see an item, a stir fry with chicken, and you want to know, can you make that vegetarian?
149
Can you make that vegan?
150
Can you make that gluten free to order?
151
Just say all have I'll have the stir fry with shrimp please.
152
Alternatively, I'd like I'd like the stir fry with shrimp please but I'll have is way more common now.
153
You may want to modify your order.
154
I'll have the stir fry with shrimp please, but no onions.
155
Hold the onions without onions.
156
They all mean the same thing.
157
Can you add Pickles?
158
So if you want something additional, can you add Pickles?
159
Can you make it extra spicy?
160
This is something my husband asks every time.
161
Can you make it extra spicy?
162
Can you put the sauce on the side?
163
So maybe if they put a sauce over top, can you put it on the side?
164
Saw us on the side Again, please just know that modifying your orders is extremely common and accepted in North America, so don't be shy.
165
If you want something specific just ask, They will do it for you.
166
And don't forget to ask for water, because as a tourist you need to drink a lot of water.
167
Can you bring us some water please?
168
They might ask you sparkling or still bottled does say tap water.
169
Tap water is fine.
170
Sometimes the restaurants try to sound more fancy and say house water.
171
But it's the water that comes out of the tap which is drinkable in all of North America.
172
So if you don't want to pay for water, just say tap water is fine and know that water is free everywhere you go.
173
In North America you can go into any place and ask for water for free.
174
You might ask them where are the bathrooms or restrooms?
175
Either word choice is fine.
176
Where are the bathrooms?
177
Where are the restrooms?
178
Just don't say where are the toilets because we don't use that word for restaurants.
179
Now if you had a big meal and you didn't finish at all, you can say can I have A to go box please And they'll bring you a box and you put your leftovers and then you take it with you.
180
Can I have A to go box please Or you can say can you wrap this up so they will take your food put it in A to go box and bring it back to you.
181
Can you wrap this up?
182
Can you pack this up?
183
They mean the same thing.
184
If they try to offer you dessert or coffee and you don't want it, say just the check please.
185
You can say check or bill.
186
Just the check please.
187
Just the bill please.
188
Can you bring me the check or bill please?
189
Or you can simply ask where do I pay?
190
Just the check please.
191
Where do I pay?
192
It's $25.00, right?
193
In North America.
194
Tips gratuity are rarely added to the bill automatically, so it's your choice to leave it.
195
When you pay, there'll be an option on the machine.
196
It's not required, but it is highly expected and a 10 to 20% tip, depending on the formality of the restaurant and the level of service is expected.
197
But again, it isn't required.
198
Now at any restaurant, cafe or store, you can ask them do you have Wi-Fi or is there Wi-Fi here?
199
And if you know there's Wi-Fi because there's a sign, you can ask them what's the Wi-Fi password.
200
Now sometimes the Wi-Fi passwords are just random letters or numbers and maybe you you didn't hear it, you couldn't understand it, You can just give them your phone.
201
Can you put it in for me, please?
202
Can you write it down, please?
203
Can you repeat that slowly, please?
204
Now let's talk about getting around so how you move from one location to another.
205
You don't really need to know how to ask for directions anymore because your phone has GPS and will tell you exactly where to go.
206
But let me share some common phrases with you.
207
Excuse me, Do you know how to get to the Empire State Building?
208
Excuse me, which way is Central Park?
209
Excuse me, does this train go to Central Park?
210
Excuse me, which train will take me to Central Park And noticed I used Excuse me for all of them because that is the most common standard in North America to get someone's attention.
211
You could also say, excuse me, do you mind taking our photo?
212
Because that is the one thing that people still ask other people for.
213
Not directions anymore.
214
But excuse me, do you mind?
215
Do you mind taking with that ING?
216
Do you mind taking our photo?
217
Excuse me, could you please take our picture so you can say photo or picture interchangeably?
218
And as a final tip, before you pack your bags and head to North America, just remember that North America is incredibly diverse and we interact with non-native English speakers every single day.
219
Every time we leave the house, we go to stores, restaurants, our work environments, our social environments.
220
We interact with non-native English speakers.
221
N Americans in general are friendly, open and accepting.
222
So don't feel any bit of nervousness or shyness because you have an accent or make grammar mistakes.
223
It will not impact your experience as a tourist, but of course you do need to be able to communicate in a way that a native speaker understands, and all of these phrases will help you do just that.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
