Hello, lovely students, and welcome back to English with Lucy.

Today, I've got a really useful video for you full of English that I personally use

phrases that I and a lot of other people who speak English use on a daily basis.

Okay, let's get started with our phrases.

While I like to imagine that I have a huge vocabulary and I use all kinds of

interesting and beautiful phrases every day, the truth is that I repeat myself

I use them again and again and again until people say, can you stop saying that, please?

Like most of you, I spend most days doing similar activities, working, eating,

And I have a bank of phrases that I use every day without even thinking about them.

And that's what I want to give you in this lesson, my bank.

I'm talking about my personal vocabulary bank.

Learn these phrases and you'll be able to get through a lot of the day in an

English speaking environment without having to think too hard about what

phrases that I say any time and any place.

This is such a great response to something negative or unfortunate that

inconveniences like, our favourite restaurant is booked up on our anniversary.

Don't use this when someone tells you that their pet died or something more

I don't feel it's strong enough for that.

Now I wouldn't recommend using this phrase with your boss or when something

is very important because it can seem a bit too casual.

But in this phrase, sometimes we go a bit more old-fashioned and say, I haven't a clue.

I use I haven't got a clue with friends or family.

Number 3, I use this all the time, to cut a long story short.

I have the habit of starting a story with

a lot of enthusiasm, especially in front of a group of people.

To cut a long story short, we use this phrase to say, I'm going to tell you the

I'm going to make this long story shorter by just telling you the essential information.

We often say this when we realise that we've been waffling on for a while and we

To waffle, or here I used it in a phrasal

verb, to waffle on, is to talk for a long time without saying anything really of

You add the preposition on to turn waffle

into a phrasal verb, and it just adds emphasis.

It implies that this is an ongoing action.

I actually can't believe I've been waffling on about the phrase, to waffle

anyway, which is another word I use about 150 times a day.
