Here are 20 of the most common questions in English – each one with five sample responses. General Questions 1. What do you do? This question means “What is your job/profession?” 00:00 00:00 §  I’m a student. §  I work in a bank. §  I’m unemployed at the moment. §  I run my own business. The word “run” means you are the primary person responsible for operating the business. §  I’m retired now. I used to be an engineer. “Retired” means you have stopped working (usually after you are 60 or 65 years old). 2. Are you married? 00:00 00:00 §  Yes, I’ve been married for two years now. §  I’m divorced. §  I’m engaged – we’re getting married next year. §  No, but I’m in a relationship. §  Nope, I’m single. “Nope” is an informal way to say “No.” 3. Why are you studying English? 00:00 00:00 §  For work. §  So I can communicate when I travel. §  I love learning new languages. §  Because I’d like to immigrate to the U.S. §  I’m thinking of studying in England. The correct way is “thinking of studying” and not “thinking to study.” 4. Where/How did you learn English? 00:00 00:00 §  I took classes for three years. §  I did an intensive course. §  I’ve been studying on my own. You can also say “studying by myself.” §  I picked it up from movies and songs. In this context, “picked it up” means “learned it casually.” §  My girlfriend taught me. 5. What do you do in your free time? 00:00 00:00 §  I don’t have any free time! §  I usually hang out with friends. “Hang out” means to spend time in an informal way. §  I go running a lot. §  I do volunteer work. §  I like reading and relaxing at home. 6.

What time is it? / Do you have the time? 00:00 00:00 §  It’s ten o’clock. §  It’s half past four. This means “4:30” §  It’s a quarter to twelve. “A quarter” is 15 minutes – so this means “11:45” §  Let me check my phone. §  Sorry, I don’t know. Shopping & Social Questions 8. Can I help you? / Do you need any help?

This means that things are OK. §  I can’t complain. §  Do you really wanna know? Normally when people ask “how’s it going?” they expect a positive response like “fine” or “good.” If you say “Do you really wanna know?” it means that things are going badly, but you are not sure if the other person wants to listen to your problems or not. 10. How are you feeling? 00:00 00:00 §  Great! Never better. §  I’m all right. §  Like I need a vacation. §  A little depressed. §  Really awful.

This means “just a second” – you need the other person to wait one moment before you can help them. §  Sorry – I’m a bit busy at the moment. 15. What have you been up to lately? This question means “What have you been doing recently?” – you can answer it in the present perfect continuous. 00:00 00:00 §  I’ve been working a lot. §  Mostly studying. §  I’ve been taking it easy. This means “relaxing, not doing anything intense or stressful.” §  Planning my summer vacation. §  Nothing much. 16. What’s the matter?

The most common way to order food is to say “I’ll have…” §  Uh-huh. To start off, we’ll split an order of nachos. “To start off” means you are ordering an appetizer (small amount of food eaten before the main meal). “Split” means that two or more people will share/divide one order of food. §  Almost – I just have a couple of questions. 19.

Have you ever tried to make conversation in English but found it difficult? If you answered 'yes', then you feel the same as many others! This page focuses on questions and strategies you can use when making conversation in English. You'll find suggestions and dialogues to practice and then try out on your own. Follow these tips and you will begin to have longer and more interesting conversations in English. What Type of Question Gets a Good Answer? The most important part of making conversation in English - or any language - is asking the right question. What's the right question? I'm glad you asked! The best type of question to help further conversation is an information question.Information questions ask for more details and will help draw out your partner in conversation. Yes / no questions, on the other hand, tend to lead to very short results. Here are few examples to explain: Yes / No Questions - Boring! Notice how the following questions lead to short answers with little detail. Yes / no questions don't ask for details, rather they only ask whether something is true or untrue, whether someone agrees or disagrees, etc. Do you like playing Tennis? Yes, I do. Are you interested in art? Yes, I am. Information Questions - Interesting! Information questions ask for more detail. When people provide more detail, you can ask further questions. Where did you grow up? I grew up in Illinois. Which part of Illinois? I grew up in a small town called Abingdon. What was it like growing up in a small town? etc. Combining The Two Question Types I'm sure you can understand the reason why information questions are more interesting than yes / no questions. In fact, I'm sure making conversation is the same in your language. You can combine the two questions types to make conversation in English by beginning with a yes / no question, and then following up with information questions. Getting Started Here are some questions that will help get the conversation started. They are yes / no questions and information questions, but will open the door for further conversations. Have you ever ...? Questions beginning with 'have you ever...' ask about experience. The question 'have you ever ...' is in the present perfect tense. However, once you start asking for details the conversation will switch to the past simple once you begin asking for details. It's fine to use the present perfect as long as you are asking about general experience, but details are often tied to specific events in the past. Be ready to switch back and forth between tenses. Here's an example conversation. John: Have you ever been abroad? Mary: Yes, I have. I've been to Europe and South America. John: Oh, that's interesting. Which countries have you visited in South America. Mary: I've been to Argentina, Brazil and Chile. John: When did you go to Brazil? Mary: I went there in 2002. It was great. John: Why did you go? Were you there on business or pleasure? Mary: I went as a tourist for three weeks. John: Which cities did you visit? Mary: We went to Rio de Janeiro, of course. We also visited Brasilia and Recife. What's your opinion on ...? / What do you think about ...? Asking for an opinion can lead to interesting conversations. Be ready to use more complicated forms such as theconditional, as well as agreeing and disagreeing with the opinion. John: What do you think about the new class? Mary: I like it, but we'll see how it goes. John: How much time does it take for your homework? Mary: That's the problem! I'll have to do a lot of homework. John: Who will you go to if you need some help? Mary: I'll ask my father if I need some help. He's good at math. John: You're lucky. I don't have anyone to help me. Do you like ...? Asking about likes and dislikes can lead a conversation anywhere. Be sure to ask about why someone likes something if you'd like to extend the conversation. John: Do you like Portland? Mary: Yes, it's a great city. John: Why do you think it's a great city? Mary: There are a lot of interesting people, shops, and I love the parks. John: Oh really. Which parks do you go to? Mary: I like going to Washington Park and Forest Park to take hikes. John: I didn't know you could take hikes. Where is Forest Park located? Mary: Let me get a map ... What's / Who's your favorite ...? Finally, asking about a person's favorite band, author, artist, athlete, etc. will ensure that a conversation stays lively. People love to talk about their favorite things. Make sure to use the comparative and superlative forms in order to continue the conversation by comparing things and people. John: What's your favorite type of music? Mary: I love jazz. John: Hmmm, I prefer pop music to jazz. Why do you like jazz so much? Mary: Well, I think jazz is more interesting than other types of music. Pop music seems so trendy. John: That's true, but I don't understand jazz. Mary: Just listen to how they change the melody throughout the song. John: OK, I'll try to listen to more jazz. Related Articles ­­

Do you have any plans for the summer holiday? 14.               14. JERRY: I'm planning on sleeping all day, every day! FAY: Oh, come on Jerry, you must be kidding. JERRY: Yeah, I'm just pulling your leg. Actually, I'm going to go down to Guizhou Province. FAY: Really? Why would you go to Guizhou? It's not a very popular tourist site. JERRY: Exactly! It's not very popular, so it won't be too crowded. I enjoyed my trip to the Great Wall, but there were so many people there. I think it spoiled the atmosphere a bit. FAY: I'm sure Guizhou won't be so crowded. But won't it be too hot in the summer? JERRY: No, according to one of my students, it's very cool in the summer. He said it is "naturally air conditioned". FAY: Well, that sounds good. I wouldn't mind getting away from the Beijing heat myself. Still, I wonder... is there anything worth seeing in Guizhou? JERRY:Sure! For one thing, there's the beautiful natural scenery. I'm sure you've heard of the Huang GuoShu Waterfalls. There's also the Maling Gorge which is said to be spectacular. There are mountains everywhere in Guizhou, even in the capital city of Guiyang. FAY: Yes, I have heard of Huang GuoShuPubu, but won't you get bored just looking at the scenery? JERRY: Come on Fay, there's lots of things to do. I can go hiking in Qian Ling Park in Guiyang, visit Miao villages in the southeast, and I know you've heard of Zunyi, a very historical city. It's where Mao Ze Dong first became the leader of the Red Army. FAY:Gee, when you describe it like that, it sounds really interesting! JERRY: And that's not all. I'll be able to eat very delicious, spicy food, drink world-famous maotai, and my student told me I can meet some very beautiful women there! FAY:I'm sure you'll have fun Jerry, but let me give you some advice. Be sure to hold onto your wallet AND your heart! JERRY:We'll see what happens! FAY:Do you have a place to stay in Guizhou? JERRY: Yes, I'm very lucky. My student's sister is the manager of the Guizhou Park Hotel, the best hotel in the province. I've seen some pictures on the Internet, it's really nice! But I think outside Guiyang, I'll stay in a Miao village or maybe buy a tent and go camping. FAY:That's great, Jerry. I'm looking forward to seeing your photos when you get back. 15.               15. DAILY LIFE DIALOGUES 1. I Live in Pasadena 2. I Have a Honda 3. Do You Have a Girlfriend? 4. Walking the Dog 5.

Greeting and introductions, talking with strangers What will I learn from the English lesson greeting and introductions, talking with strangers? During this English lesson you will learn about questions words and how to use them in a sentence. The last part of the lesson is a brief discussion between Mr Bean and Mrs Smith in a café in Manchester. Meeting new people When you meet new people in a new country it can be very difficult and stressful. When you are faced with this kind of situation it is best to use small talk which is informal chat in social situations. Using small talk will help you start a relationship and also find common interests to share with your new found friends or colleagues. When talking to people like they like you to ask questions and show an interest with what’s happening with their lives, family, pets and the weather, remember people in the UK love to talk about the weather. Chatting with Strangers You will notice that most question words in English language start with ‘wh’. The following ‘wh’ words are very useful when you meet new people: Who? What? Where? When? Why? How? How long Who’s that standing over there near the door? What do you do? (Used when asking about someone’s job)  Where do you live?  Do you know when the plane leaves?  Why is the food late arriving?  Can you please tell me how do I can get to Oxford Street? (asking someone for directions)  How long does it take you to get ready in a morning? Which train do I need to get for going to Manchester? What is the conversation about? Mr Bean is waiting at the airport for a plane. He has over forty-five minutes to wait, so he decides to find a café and have a coffee. Inside the cafe it is almost full, so he tries to find a seat and ends up making a new friend with a lady called Mrs Smith. Mr Bean: - Excuse me, is this seat free? Mrs Smith: - Yes. Mr Bean: - Thanks. (Mr Bean sits down.) Mrs Smith: - My name’s Mrs Smith it is nice to meet you. Mr Bean: - Hi Mrs Smith mu name is  Mr Bean it’s nice to meet you too. Mrs Smith: - Where are you from, Mr Bean?  You sound like you not from England. Mr Bean: - I’m from Thailand. I have been visiting my family in Manchester. How about you? Mr Smith: - Same as every day at this time on my way to work, as usual! Mr Bean: - What do you do? Mrs Smith: - I’m an English teacher my students love learning English. How about you? Mr Bean: - I’m also an English teacher, but I’m on holiday right now. How conversations start A lot of conversations often start like the one above. You ask a person’s name, where they come from and their job. You can use the same methods in many social situations to make small talk on transport, in a café, supermarket and even in the street. There will be times when sometimes you will not understand everything that you hear. It may not be always necessary to understand every word. What can I say when I don’t understand what is being said? 1.  Can you speak more slowly, please I don’t understand? 2.  Pardon? 3.  Sorry, what was that you just said? 4.  Am sorry would you mind repeating that, please? 5.  I’m sorry; I don’t fully understand what you have just said, what do you mean.
