How to talk about your friends in English

640

Would you like to be my friend please be my friend?

That's weird. No. Thank you

today's lesson is going to be about

friends

Do you have any friends?

I hope so

It's very very very strange

In English to ask someone or you be my friend

That's very strange. So you can say to people

Hello

You can tell them your name

But please don't ask them can I be your friend because it's very very strange if we were children

That'll be great, and I'd say yeah sure let's hang out

But we are not children. I'm not a child anymore and

Viewers, I don't know if you are children or not if you were a child. I hope you make lots of friends

Friends you love them

today, I'm going to teach you a lot of

Things that I hear people making mistakes that are so funny. It makes me laugh, I

Don't want you to make these mistakes. I want to help you. I want to correct your mistakes because it can be so

Embarrassing and people will laugh at you, and you have no idea. Why?

Why are people laughing at me so the very very first sentence is?

Do you want to play with me?

Now maybe some of you are laughing some of you are giggling because you know

What this sentence means when we are adults if you use the word?

play when you were an adult it means to have sex or

to do sexual

not just intercourse so if I said to someone on the street, or if I called my friend

And I said hi, how are you friends?

Do you want to play with me?

they'd either say yes or no and

That would be a very fun time. Maybe so you

Have to remember that play

Implies

sex

Now if you want to have sex with your friends, that's your choice

But I don't recommend it what you want to do is you can ask your friends?

Do you want to?

Hang

out

with me

So all you're going to do in this sentence is you're going to replace the word

Play with hangouts

This is slang you're learning slang if I said this to my mother hey, mom would you like to hang out?

She'd understand me, but she would use more a word like

Vivid Older people would say my friend came to visit me yesterday

They would not say I played with my friend yesterday that would be strange for your mother maybe

so this sentence is

Hilarious if you understand what I just taught you this sentence is I?

played with my grandma or

grandmother

this is

the short form

Of grandmother now people might say grandma Gran Granny

It's up to you, but if you said to someone hey last night, I played with my grandmother oh

Mel's will Drop and

People will not want to be your friend anymore

so what you're going to do is you're going to use the past tense of

hang out

All we're doing is changing this word into the past tense does anyone know what it is the past tense of hang is

hung oh

So you're Gonna Say I?

hung out

with my grandma

Good awesome. We had some tea

Mm-Hmm

The next word that I hear people using when they talk about their friends is

Making an appointment or having an appointment

This is wrong. Okay an appointment. We only use for anything to do with

business, or

if you have to go to the doctor or

God Forbid a lawyer

Anything that you have to pay the person to do

You're gonna make an appointment. If you need to get your hair cut you're gonna make an appointment because it's a business

with your friends

Maybe you do not have to pay them

to hang out with you, so

instead of saying an appointment

You're gonna say again hang out or you can say plan you can say I have a plan

with my friends

The next sentence or word that a lot of people misuse is

the verb meet

the past tense met I

Will hear people say I met you at the mall yesterday

No, you didn't

Meet or met is only used for the very very first time

You are introduced to someone

so if I'm

Meeting someone for the very first time I can say I met you five years ago and you

Had short hair it is only for the first

time

You meet someone so again you're going to use the word hang out or you can use

C

Or in the past tense saw it's natural to say I

saw you

Yesterday at the mall or I'm going to see you okay? We don't say I'm going to meet you

when we want to do it for the

Umpteenth time we say in the past. I saw you I saw you yesterday

Not I met you yesterday

It's wrong

the next one the last one

I've already told you about his visit visit

basically means the same as

Hang

out we always hang out with

someone okay

My mother would say I visited my friend. I would say I'm going to hang out or past tense

I hung out the past tense of visits. It's a regular idi verb is

Visited so I could say I visited my friend's house

We hung out?

We did not play I

Hope you have a good time

meeting your friends

Having fun, and maybe playing goodbye

you
