Hi all, don't forget to leave us a comment and tell us which phrase is your favourite and which ones you use regularly! Enjoy 😉xxx

[@rezza2507]

Hello, Sabrah! Definitely. 😍

[@rezza2507]

My favourite phrase is: Alright...how is it going? I use these phrases regularly: 1. How've you been? 2. Long time no see!

[@HasanBaabdullah]

Hi Sabrah, nice lesson. In my country we say (keif halak) or shortly (keifak). The new phrase I learned today is (are you keeping well?), I really liked it.

[@LoveEnglishwithLeilaSabrah]

Yes that one is useful 👍 thanks for your comment - shokran - is that how you spell it!

[@rezza2507]

Hi, Sabrah! You look so beautiful in this video! In my country, Indonesia, we say, "Apa kabar?"

Great lesson, Sabrah! Is it OK to greet and reply to someone you meet for the 1st time with How do you do? It's quite common to find this in textbooks for formal situations, but perhaps it's not so natural amongst native speakers. Thank you!!

How you doing ( with Joey Tribbiani voice ) Flawless lesson but I mean That’s your standard , If all English teachers from KZbin competed each other Sabrah would mop the floor with them . Sabrah is there any chance for another Q&A video the last one was a hell of a ride . Yesterday you posted a Ig lesson about conditional I’d be pretty useful if you teach us Mixed conditionals . I think is the first time I see you wearing a denim blouse and omg KZbin should pay you too much beauty for free , See Sabrah wearing a cap backwards is priceless. ❤️
