So we'll practice a few different answers for these questions, too.
So let's get started.
Do you like American food?
The first question is, do you like American food?
You will probably be asked this question.
Do you like American food?
You can either say yes or no or you can give a specific example.
Someone says, Do you like American food?
Yes, I love Philly cheesesteaks.
I would recommend saying yes or a little or or or you could just say, I don't know.
What do you recommend?

But I want to.
When you want to ask someone this question, you could say.
Have you been to Japan?
Have you been to Egypt?
Have you been to China?
Whatever.
You can use your own country.
When you ask this question, How are you?
How are you when someone asks, How are you?
Don't say I'm fine, Thank you.
And you?
Please don't say that.
Please say something more natural.
Like good.
Great.
I'm good.
How are you?
Something like that is much better than I'm fine, Thank you.
And you be a little more genuine in your reply.
Also, when you ask this question, maybe one point to help you sound a little more natural when you ask someone else.

How are you instead of how are you or on make?
Make sure intonation is correct.
I've had a few people ask me, Uh, how are you?

But if that's too much for you can just use the time.
How long have you been studying English?
Six years.
How long have you been studying English?

So just pick the time.
If if the whole sentence is quite long for you.

Like just the first time.
You meet them necessarily.
Especially if they're older, much older than you.
Like in particular.
It's sometimes considered rude to ask especially women how old they are.
So just be careful with this question.
But if you're about the same age group, you know, maybe you're in an event or ah, party or something, and you just want to check how old the other person is.
You can use this phrase when you reply to this.
Just say, uh, I'm plus the number to make a really simple response.
So how old are you?
I'm 15.
How old are you?
I'm 42.
Whatever.

So what's your name?
Someone asks you.
You can just give your name.
Alicia.
That's fine.
You can say, Alicia, you can say I'm Alicia.
That's fine, too.

In a more formal situation, a business situation I would I would use.
My name is Bob a blonde while I shake hands or something.
What's your phone number?
The next one is What's your phone number?
I would not ask this question right away, like maybe you've met the person a few times, but you'd like to contact them, whether it's because you were romantically interested in them or because you want to be better friends with them.
But just if you meet someone for the first time and you're like, What's your phone number?
Like a little No, it's a little too much.
So use this question after you've met the person a few times and you know you want to become better friends when you want to give your phone number to say it's and the number.
That's fine.
Just it's blah, blah, blah or my phone number is blah, blah, blah off with the number 5551 million in 5 to 6.
