How to speak like native speakers - Colloquialism

Have you ever noticed that you don’t always understand what the native speakers are saying?

Sometimes they use phrases in which the words are grouped together in one sense?

Or that they sound different from what they are expected to sound like?

Yeah, it’s called colloquialism or colloquial language.

It is the language form that speakers typically use when they speak in a relaxed way exactly the way I’m talking to you right now.

Examples of colloquial usage in English are “contractions”

“elisions” profanities or “slangs”

I’m just gonna talk about contractions because they are way more important than the other ones.

Slangs and profanities also can help you understand native speakers but they’re not really necessary to use and it’s your choice whether to use them or not.

If you really love English go for it and use them but it’s better if they are your last priority.

Let’s talk about Contractions.

What is a contraction?

A contraction is a shortened version of the written and spoken forms of a word syllable or word group.

Let me show you some common contractions:

Ok

I wanna add something else to this video. Something called relaxed speech.

Relaxed speech happens when native speakers change sounds drop syllables or letters while speaking.

Note that before doing this you have to master basic sounds and correct pronunciations.

Ok, Let me give you some examples :

Ok now you know why native speakers sometimes sound incomprehensible but Aref

I dunno where and how to learn the contractions or other things you’ve mentioned do you know?

Yes I know

Zabanshenas

Why zabanshenas?

These are not the type of things you could learn or at least practice in books. you have to hear it form a native speaker in video clips movies podcasts.

So what we did is to bring all the things I just mentioned together in one place so that you wouldn’t need anything else no books no classes just an app on your phone.

Ok everybody this was the fourth and last episode of how to speak like a native speaker.

I tried to make it as short as possible just to give you a general idea of what you need to do in order to be more similar to a native speaker.

I dunno why I’m ending this like I’m not gonna come back.

I’ll be back with another video.

Be safe see you soon.
