folk group has this
ever happened to you you I having a conversation with someone
and all of a sudden your conversation
dog eyes a miserable death love
stand she bed conversation why
did that conversation die I ask you
is probably too very good reasons why you conversation
has died the first one is
that you are too shy
or too embarrassed to
ask a person a boat new vocabulary
we are living in such a time as we have new
slaying old slaying new vocabulary
all vocabulary around us all the time
sometimes my mother will say a word
and I will have no idea what the word means because it's easier British
English
or really old-fashioned or old school
on the other hand if you're talking to native Canadian speakers are native
English speakers they might throw some slaying it too much
and you have no idea what they're saying
for example if someone said I have to go take a dump
the yet what don't check you taking in
don't choke so instead of stopping the conversation with the person
who has to take a dump you're going to realize
dead yes choose turns in New
exciting vocabulary this is a common occurrence
in a conversation two people will be talking to me
came in a minute one person will see a new word
and the other person will stop talking
because they don't wanna look stupid and just
ask the person to or one
very simple question what's that
so if I was talking to someone or you were talking to me and I said
excuse me I have to take a dump I'll be right back
I'm back instead of not talking to me anymore I'm
what you're going to do is you're going to ask me Ronnie
what's take a
don't and is it
I'll take a dump means I have to go to
the washroom I'll be right back
you can use this with one word
or a phrase like I have used
take a dump is slang it's usually used
with when men be tutored girls you can see it too good
doesn't matter take a dump basically means you have to do
number two there's gonna be some too it's usually not too late to mention
to people when it's really nice to meet you I had to take a dump
it's better to be more planes a I have to go to the washington
and we don't care what you doing there why do we
the second thing you can say what does
the word mean okay or the freezing
these two expressions are
the same let's imagine that I was telling you about my adventures
in the Mexico
and thats imagine that I went to a beach in Mexico
and I saw a donkey and
you have no idea bought with a donkey is so
instead of going home
or the other thing that people do is a go donkey
donkey donkey don't call
donkey I then think
one new did not hear me say donkey
or two you have no idea what I'm talking about
so instead repeating the word you don't know
donkey Doki Doki literally
ask the person the question what's donkey
or what does donkey mean go
is soo nephews you have ask him the question
the realize that you
don't understand so new vocabulary people will try to help you
maybe they want most people want to teach you new slang new look at the
they wanna help you so instead of closing of
running away what you going to do is you're going to ask them
what's this would mean
or what does mean okay you can not say
what does mean donkey
I hear a lot of my English student saying teacher
what don't you mean does you can not change
the structure the sentence this is very easy
it's one word what's mystery word okay
so practices someone throws out some new slang new vocabulary don't be afraid
come back with these two words conversation skills
seconding 0 this happens to me
so I can imagine it'll happen to you maybe you
are learning English maybe you
are learning how to communicate with people
at a new job I don't know you doing
the what you going to do is you
no the English word you know it you know this word
you knows we're you've heard this one before
but you don't remember the English word
or you
don't know the word whatsoever you know the word in your language
but you'd have not learned the translation
into an english-language this is where the fun begins
so for this second reason a you don't
know the word at all or you don't remember the English word
what you gonna do you get to play game
with the person you're talking to yes
you're going to take all love the vocabulary
additives verbs that you know you're gonna play game with the person
this game is called guess the word
you gonna start the game by saying
a question you gonna say how do you say
you are going to use olive your vocabulary
and you're going to describe the word
you don't know or don't remember for example
I can say how do you see
the food an thats
you sometimes eat at the movies
and its its white a
and yellow sometimes be put basra
look like a lot ok what you friends like you I ho
popcorn if you have just remembered or learned
the word that you couldn't do the next phase you can say to the people
where the person what do you call again
these two words are the same
sorry these two sentences are exactly the same you going to use this
or this do the same words same sentences
again you gonna play the game with the people
I'd like to put out a warning as well some people are stupid
so be careful some people you could describe the word
and they still have no idea
that's when you get out your dictionary and leave and
the next sentence what do you call again these two are the same
I can say what do you call me animal
um that looks like a horse
but it's a little smaller in as long
here's and I can ride
the animal I think the animal was in Shrek
you know the movie Shrek 0 donkey
donkey your friend or the person you time to knows the movie Shrek
and tells you because if you're beautiful description
that mystery word is donkey so the next time you are having a conversation with
someone
maybe who's in native speaker where someone who you're talking to
for the first time in you do not understand them
are you having a conversation breakdown
