As a Psychology major in Ohio, even though English is a second language for me, I learned subtleties such as how to use "ought to" instead of "should." A college education in an English-speaking nation is indeed great to learn these things.

[@tomb614]

Very good, Gideon. Thanks for that. I’d just say that as an American living in the UK, I had to learn all this from the scratch. Not because I wished to sound native, but because I wanted to fit in. I face all your tips as pieces of cultural commentary. Being seen as a native speaker is also a cultural expectation. As you said about understatements in the UK. That said, I’d add another tip, which is never say “good” or “fine” when asked “how are you”. “Not too bad”, “I am okay”, “I am doing____(this thing)” are some of the answers I hear constantly. These are ways of not sounding over confident, I guess. All the best.

[@Cobourg01]

@@psychobartus psychobartus It doesn't work anywhere else in the world. There are 250 million English-speaking people in North America. Precisely none of them say "ta" or "cheers." Conversely, everyone in the Midlands understands the traditional expressions: thanks, thank you and thank you very much. Also, "maybe" is an adverb and "may" is a verb. They're different things, not different types of the same thing. The object should be to communicate clearly, not attempt to sound like someone who was born in a particular locality. For one thing, that's impossible. For another, which locality do you choose? South African English is easiest to understand. Why not choose it?

Just a small tip for newcomers: "May" is talking more about probability while "might" is strictly related to possibility (depending on the context can be used to talk about probability).

I am a native English speaker but I have lived in Germany for the past 15 years and because of that I can speak German pretty fluently. At work I am constantly in contact with people who are speaking English as a second language and most of the time they are translating word for word directly from German to English in their heads. I know that because I know how they would have said it in their own native language. All of the people I work with are educated to a degree level and their command of English is pretty good. Sometimes very good. What gives them away is their accent and general sentence construction (verb order etc..)

Yes.

And that "may" is used for future probability: "I may go to Greece."

[@rafaelleduarte]

Relying on my own experience as a person who absorbed the English language from the BBC learning English platform and has a sort of British accent, there is a particular set of words that I use quite often that I don't hear at all from my classmates from the language school in which I study. For example, the words particular, sufficient, familiarise, proper, perfectly, appreciative, considerable, contemplate, visualise, unbearable, surely, throughout, favourable, unfairly, ponder, thoughtfully, expressively, approximately, pontentially, whenever, opt, centred, bore and so on. The language school where I study is completely centred in the accents of The United States of America and teachers as well as students categorise my English as 'extremely formal'. The majority of language schools across Brazil are focused on the accents of USA and the students who frequent them are poorly introduced to the English spoken in other countries besides the one I've mentioned previously. The students learn the most basic way of expressing themselves and as an example I'm going to use the constructions 'very scary', 'I don't like it', 'I don't know it' and 'I know it". Some English students here in Brazil can sound really robotic and/or rude whilst speaking English for they are not used to enrich their vocabulary to the point that they learn how to soften what they say in order to not be impolite. According to what I was told, if you use words such as 'fairly', you are trying to sound sophisticated and surely as hell you are going to sound as a native English speaker from the UK 😅💗

[@user-ur5zg2jc5x]

I have no idea why isn't anyone reply to this..but it's masterpiece.I am from Singapore.The words you mentioned above were widely use here...still I find it difficult to understand why native speak so "advancely"(btw bear with my poor grammar mistakes)😅

[@marcondespaulo]

Most students here in Brazil barely display average competency on their own language, which is Portuguese. Given that, it is astounding they can ever perform on another, quite different language.

[@Waris1976]

"Have you got a pen?" sounds very formal to Americans. We would say: "Do you have a pen?" or "You got a pen?"

[@Iggypox]

Or just simply shout- " gimme a pen right now!"

Gotta pen? ))

[@tompeled6193]

No, the first two are fine and there is no difference between them; the third one is informal.

[@SacredPathoftheWarrior]

I'm American, and you're right, no one in the US says "have you got a pen", although it is grammatically correct. We do say, "you got a pen?" Or, "got a pen?", but the "have" makes it sound British.

Here in the US I rarely hear people express possession with “have got” We use “have/ don’t have” or “do you have” in interrogative statements. Have got is obviously something more common in British English. But rather uncommon in American English.

[@cuiperindy2120]

That's what I was going to clarify after watching this video! Please, DON'T use "have got" (have you got a pen?) if you are learning American English. I'm not a native speakers, but I'm really surprised to hear this man saying : use "have got" if you want to sound as an English native speaker.

"Have got" that is what in my daughter's English school book! And the USA population will soon speak Spanish not English. So sorry for you guys.

@@gannaglobina6509aren't you so clever? No, English is unlikely to be replaced by Spanish in the US, at least not anytime "soon".

[@marxk4rl]

Got Milk? This is a popular advertising campaign for milk in North America. It should be "Have you got milk?" Got a minute? People often say: “Got a minute?” which is short for “Do you have a minute?” or “Have you got a minute?” I Gotta Feeling This is the title of a song by the Black Eyed Peas. It should actually be "I've got a feeling." Looks like in the US, people dropped have ('ve) and kept got from the British "have got." Even more, Americans liked so much the word "got" from the British "have got" that they use it instead of "have": "Have to" -> "Got to" : "Got to go"

[@stevenvarner9806]

American English differs regionally. "I've got" is common in American English. "How many quarters do you have for this old parking meter?" "I've got five." Or, "I've got to go now, sorry."

I'm a native English speaker and I slightly disagree about may/might. There are grammarians (grammar experts) who will give you a specific difference, but in everyday speech, here's my tip: always use "might" for possibility. Firstly, I don't agree with the percentage thing - for me, the percentage explanation is not accurate - I don't perceive any difference in possibility, percentage-wise, between "may" and "might". Instead, the difference to most native British English speakers' ears is that "may" sounds slightly posher, and because of that as a non-native speaker you will sound as if you are trying to be too correct, regardless of the grammatical situation, if you use it. "Might" always sounds comfortable/right/commonly done in spoken English for possible things. Disregard my advice here if your English accent is perfect, of course; in that case, you probably sound convincing whatever you say.

[@frfancha]

Thanks for the tip

[@sweirky1]

I totally agree with you. Thanks for the comment.

[@spyphyfarnsworth6050]

From oxforddictionaries: "Traditionalists insist that one should distinguish between may (present tense) and might (past tense) in expressing possibility: I may have some dessert if I'm still hungry; she might have known her killer. However, this distinction is rarely observed today, and may and might are generally acceptable in either case: she may have visited yesterday; I might go and have a cup of tea. On the difference in use between may and can, see can"

I was born and raised in America. My first foray into alternative languages was learning and reciting the first two paragraphs of "The Prologue to the Canterbury Tales", in it's natural form, Middle English, as a fifth grader. At the time, although difficult, I thought it rather cool. "And smale fowles maken melodye, That slepen al the night with open ye" Became my Mantra (Probably why I didn't have many friends). I can still remember most of what I learned until this day. From that moment on, I became quite fascinated by all things "English". Unfortunately, growing up in inner city Philadelphia in the late 70's, my interaction with English culture was limited to, you guessed it, "The Benny Hill Show". I thought if I talked funny and went around smacking people in the neck, I was English. Before long I was introduced to Monty Python. The first 2 VHS tapes I remember owning was "The Holy Grail" and "Blazing Saddles", the two movies that shaped my humor. (I know Mel Brooks isn't English). To this day, I prefer British humor and British shows in general. Thank God for the internet! I have no idea how or why I ended up here watching this video, but it's amazing how I still find myself attracted to insights into British culture and accents. Just thought I'd share. Cheers!

"you're welcome") but that it was actually a pleasure for you to do the thing you were thanked for. :)

Honestly, the only thing I care when I speak English, is that the other person can understand me clearly and without ambiguity.

[@hectordariocardonaalvarez5206]

raze7x totally! I never really understood this obsession with sounding like native speakers... as if being bilingual were some type of a curse, something not to be proud of... nothing wrong with having an accent! Thanks for your comment buddy

[@raze7x]

@@hectordariocardonaalvarez5206 you are welcome! I think that only the pronunciaton must be right, so who is listening to you cannot confuse one word with another, but the accent is of no matter. :)

"English, do you speak it?" "What?"

[@away2964]

Evgeny, once I asked a new student of mine if he spoke English, and he answered modestly, "A few."

If someone asks me whether I speak English or not I always answer: I don’t English too much very well but the what I do is the best I is.

How I would answer the last question: "Well, they understand me on the south side of Chicago."
