1
I imagine one of the first phrases you ever learned in English was, you're welcome.
2
And you're welcome is fine.
3
It's a very commonly used expression,
4
the natural response to thank you.
5
But it's not the only expression that British people use.
6
In fact, it can sound a bit more stiff
7
and a bit more formal than some of the other options that we use.
8
We do say you're welcome,
9
but we say lots of other things depending on the situation or the tone.
10
So today I am going to show you some natural alternatives to you're welcome.
11
They will range from polite to friendly to informal and casual to typically British.
12
Are you ready to learn some alternatives to you're welcome?
13
Let's go.
14
Let's start with a classic.
15
No problem.
16
No problem.
17
No problem.
18
This is incredibly common in British English, especially in casual situations.
19
You might hear it when someone is thanked for a small favour,
20
or when someone opens the door for someone,
21
or if someone helps quickly.
22
For example, thanks for sending that over.
23
No problem.
24
No problem.
25
One thing to note about this one.
26
Some people might feel this sounds too casual in very formal situations,
27
but in everyday life it's completely normal.
28
Thanks, no problem.
29
This next one is ideal if you want to sound very British and very relaxed,
30
and that is no worries.
31
No worries.
32
It means that was easy,
33
I don't mind, you didn't inconvenience me in any way, no worries.
34
For example, Sorry I'm late.
35
No worries.
36
You'll hear this everywhere in the UK and I believe in Australia too.
37
But no worries is very common in the UK.
38
Now the next one, of course.
39
This one is subtle but powerful.
40
It suggests that helping was obvious, expected, completely natural.
41
For example, thanks for helping me revise.
42
Of course.
43
Oh thanks for looking after the dog.
44
Of course.
45
Of course.
46
Just with this one, be careful with your tone.
47
If you say it warmly,
48
it is kind and reassuring.
49
Of course.
50
If you say it sharply and clipped, it can sound annoyed.
51
Of course.
52
Of course.
53
I've been through this before.
54
Tone matters.
55
Tone is very important.
56
Number four is a friendly and and a warm one,
57
and that is anytime.
58
Anytime.
59
As you can probably guess from the word itself this means
60
i'd happily do it again anytime for example thanks for explaining
61
that anytime this works very well with friends
62
or colleagues it feels very generous
63
and open anytime i'd happily do it again anytime this next
64
one is very polite very professional can be a touch formal which is fine and that is
65
my pleasure you'll hear this a lot in hotels restaurants
66
or shops in the hospitality industry for example oh thank you
67
so much my pleasure
68
or it's a pleasure my pleasure you can use this one in everyday life
69
but it is a tad more formal this next one is
70
a very natural one number six don't mention it don't mention
71
it this means it's not worth thanking me it was so little bother to me It's not worth thanking me.
72
Don't mention it.
73
For example, thanks for picking that up for me.
74
Don't mention it.
75
It can sound friendly or dismissive depending on the tone.
76
Again, watch your tone.
77
Warmth is everything.
78
Listen to the difference with this.
79
Don't mention it.
80
Don't mention it.
81
Don't mention it.
82
Don't mention it.
83
Big difference there.
84
This next one, that's all right or that's okay.
85
These are understated and of course,
86
because they are understated, they are very British.
87
That's alright or that's okay.
88
For example, oh, thanks waiting,
89
that's all right, thanks for doing that for me, that's okay.
90
These are both calm and quite natural.
91
What we don't always say,
92
as I mentioned at the beginning,
93
we don't always say you're welcome.
94
We do say it but usually when we are being extra polite
95
or we're teaching or we want to sound very clear or formal,
96
in daily conversation it can sound a bit distant actually.
97
So if you're always saying you're welcome.
98
You're not wrong, but it can sound a bit more formal.
99
Now let's practice.
100
I'm going to say thank you and without thinking,
101
choose one of the new ways you have learned to say you're welcome.
102
Thanks for your help.
103
Thanks for holding the door.
104
Thanks so much for everything.
105
Write your answers in the comments.
106
There's no single correct answer.
107
Context with this is everything.
108
So if you're not given that much context, it's not as easy.
109
And there you go next time someone says thank you in English,
110
you've got many options.

语境与背景

在学习英语的过程中,许多人首先接触到的短语之一就是“你太客气了”(you’re welcome)。尽管这个表达在英语交流中非常常见,尤其中在回应感谢时使用,但它并不是英国人用的唯一表达方式。实际上,相比其他更随意或更友好的选项,“你太客气了”有时可能显得有些正式。因此,了解和学习一些更自然的替代短语对于提升我们英语交流的流畅性和自然性非常重要。

日常沟通的五个常用短语

  • 没问题(No problem):这是英国英语中非常常见的表达,尤其适用于非正式场合。当有人因小忙而感谢你时,你可以轻松地回应“没问题”。
  • 没事(No worries):这条短语非常理想,能让你听起来更加随意与自然,表示你并不觉得这个请求给你带来了麻烦。
  • 当然可以(Of course):这个表达方式暗示了帮助是理所当然的,给人一种温暖的感觉。当别人感谢你时用“当然可以”,能传达出你的善良和乐意助人的态度。
  • 我的荣幸(My pleasure):此短语表明你乐于助人,可以增加语句的礼貌性和亲切感。
  • 不客气(Don’t mention it):这是一个非常地道的表达方式,适合在各种场合中使用,给人以轻松自然的印象。

逐步跟读指南

对于刚接触这些短语的你,跟读(shadowspeak)可以帮助你提高口语能力。以下是一些逐步的方法来练习这些短语:

  1. 选择视频:看YouTube学英语时,选择有相关表达的日常对话视频。
  2. 模仿发音:听取视频中的对话,注意音调与发音,努力模仿。
  3. 重复练习:运用英语影子跟读(英语影子跟读),尝试一段一段地重复所听到的内容,不断提高流利度。
  4. 使用情景练习:在日常生活中应用所学短语,尝试与朋友或家人进行角色扮演,增强使用的理解。
  5. 自信沟通:多与母语为英语的人交流,实践这些短语,帮助你更自然地融入英语环境,尤其是在雅思口语练习期间。

通过不断的练习和使用,这些表达方式将会成为你与他人交流的自然部分,让你在英语对话中更加自信。

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
