REAL English Sentences You Can Use Now

fun fact I love to travel I’ll tell you

a story at the end I’m teacher Tiffany

let’s jump right in

[Music]

alright so today we’re gonna be looking

at five real English sentences but

what’s gonna happen is we’re gonna start

with one simple sentence and I’m gonna

show you how I expand that sentence

using the five W’s remember who what

when where and why to create five more

real English sentences that you can use

right now alright so back to my screen

now the first sentence we need is a

basic English sentence and we’re gonna

look at one about waking up in the

morning here’s the sentence I write in

my journal after I wake up in the

morning very simple sentence right you

understood everything that I said but

now we’re going to transform that

sentence using one of the five W’s okay

so let’s choose who as our first W now

here’s the new sentence since I am a

journalist I tend to write in my journal

after I wake up in the morning now again

this is a real English sentence and I

expanded it by giving more information

about the who so in the sentence I said

since I am a journalist that answers the

hoop but we have two expressions the

first one is since I am now that just

means because of something and then tend

to means something happens often and is

likely to happen again now these two

expressions are very very useful and as

an American I use them on a regular

basis which is again why I’m saying this

is a real English sentence that you are

learning right now but let’s look at

some more examples that use this

expression okay or these expressions

here we go since I am sin

I am the one doing this job you don’t

have to worry about anything going wrong

so basically hey because I am the one

doing this job you have nothing to worry

about and again instead of saying

because I said since I am the one doing

this job

makes sense excellent all right now the

second expression was tend to so here’s

the example sentence for that

I heard the business people in this area

tend to go to work around 7:00 a.m. in

the morning so again what I’m saying is

oh I heard that business people in this

area often go to work at 7 a.m. in the

morning it’s something that happens

often

so I said tend to makes sense all right

so again you can use the real English

sentence now we’re gonna move on to what

the second W here’s how the sentence

transforms I jot down my daily to-do

list in my journal after I wake up in

the morning now remember again we still

have the basic sentence but we

transformed it by adding the information

that answered what and we have once

again a real English sentence now

there’s a part of the sentence that I

want to explain to you again we have jot

down my daily to-do list which answers

the what or that W but we have jot down

now the expression jot down means to

write or mark down quickly or briefly so

let’s look at an example of two example

sentences here we go I tried to jot down

his information but he was speaking a

bit too fast for me so that means in

this sentence this person was trying to

quickly write down something but the

person was speaking too fast so this

person was not able to jot down or write

quickly what the person was saying makes

sense all right now here’s

second example using this expression we

have he carries a notebook at all times

so that he can jot down any ideas that

pop into his head now

again think about a time when you are

speaking to someone and maybe they use a

word that you’ve never heard before

and you’re like man I really want to

remember this word later you can take

out your pen and write that word down

quickly or you can jot it down make

sense now in the sentence there was also

another term we use another expression I

said pop into his head that just means

to suddenly think of something okay we

say pop into your head so again we’ve

learned jot down all right now moving on

to the next W for when oh let me pause

really quickly because as you’re

watching this lesson and as you’re

learning things you probably want to

study more so I would love to be your

teacher and I want to remind you that in

the description I have a link to my

other lessons and will improve your

English fluency in the Academy so click

the link you can join me and I will be

your permanent English teacher all right

okay so let’s keep going here we go now

back to my screen we’re on the third W

the win here’s the sentence I write in

my journal

almost immediately after I wake up in

the morning so we answer the question

when almost immediately after I wake up

in the morning but this expressed it

almost immediately just means coming or

happening directly after something so

think about something you’re doing and

when you stop you do something else so

almost immediately after something else

now let’s see another example sentence

okay let’s look at um let’s see if we

can look at two examples instances using

this expression the doctor told her that

the pain medication would

reduce her pain almost immediately all

right so again think about a moment when

you’ve been in pain and you really

wanted some medicine to take away that

pain some medicine is a little bit weak

so it takes a long time to actually work

but some medicine works almost

immediately or very quickly to relieve

your pain actually yesterday I went to

visit one of my friends and she had a

surgery and she was in pain and she was

saying that she was able to get some

medicine but some of the medicine didn’t

work immediately and then other medicine

worked very slowly so when you’re in

pain just like my friend was in pain you

want something that will work almost

immediately all right okay so now let’s

look at another sentence using this

expression here we go I called her

almost immediately after hearing what

happened to her brother that means that

someone told me some information and I

said oh my goodness okay wait a minute

wait a minute I need to immediately call

her you see how fast I just moved to

grab my phone that’s what it means

almost immediately okay all right great

job I know you understand here we go

we’re gonna move on now to our next W

our next W is where and we’re gonna

transform or expand the sentence I write

in my journal in the room down the hall

from the kitchen after I wake up in the

morning all right so you see I’ve

expanded it but there’s an expression

here now I can remember the link in the

description also will give you the PDF

so the first link is the download the

PDF I have a PDF that’s connected to

this lesson so don’t worry you can watch

it and continue learning and then at the

end you can download the free pdf that

has all of the information why because

I’m your teacher and I want to help you

so download the PDF after the lesson and

don’t worry about it okay

you don’t have to jot down any notes

right now okay all right

so back to the sentence now we answer

the this w the the we’re alright by

saying in the room down the hall from

the kitchen but what is this expression

down the hall from me it specifies a

location along the hall or further along

the hall from a certain location so

let’s see some more examples here we go

I live right down the hall from him now

again I want you to think about in a

previous lesson I told you guys about my

best friend in university we lived in

the dormitory right remember I told you

guys that story from the last lesson if

you didn’t see it check out the last

lesson because I told a story at the end

that was super funny about my friends

talking to me when I was sleeping so

again check out the previous lesson the

story at the end because this also will

help you understand kind of the story

because I mentioned my best friend lived

across from me right but in a hallway

along a hallway there are many doors

many rooms so if I live in the first

room and another friend lives in the

fifth room my friend lives down the hall

from me ok all right so that’s what down

the halls referring to now the second

example sentence we have is right here

Samantha told me that the new biology

course is going to be held down the hall

from this one alright so again she’s

speaking about a classroom and she says

down the hall from this classroom will

be another biology course all right ok

now let’s see another real English

sentence here we go now we’re gonna

answer the why ok so I write in my

journal after I wake up in the morning

that’s the basic sentence in order to

clear my head before I start my day now

that makes sense but you’ll see that we

have two expressions in this sentence in

this real English sentence so what does

in order to mean in order to just means

as a means or way to do something or so

that it is possible to I’m right and

then clear my head means

to stop worrying or thinking about

something

now remember like I said before the PDF

includes all of this information so you

don’t have to worry okay alright so

let’s look at some examples using these

expressions here we go in order to the

science teacher told his students that

certain animals have to kill other

animals in order to live now the easiest

way to understand this think about a

lion what does a lion do a lion has to

kill other animals in order to live in

order to eat it must kill other things

okay all right now clear my head what

does that mean clear my head well

remember I said it means to stop

worrying or thinking about something so

here we go after the discussion she told

him that she was going to need a few

days to clear her head so whatever they

discussed started to worry her and she

started thinking about it a lot so she

needed time to stop worrying about it

and to stop thinking about it because it

was bothering her so I want you to

remember these real English sentences

will really help you along your English

journey because this is exactly how we

speak as native English speakers all

right so again looking at a sentence is

on the screen here we go first one since

I am a journalist I tend to write in my

journal after I wake up in the morning

next i jot down my daily to-do list in

my journal after I wake up in the

morning alright and you see the other

three at the bottom so again remember

you need to download the free pdf so

that you can review these sentences now

I really hope you enjoyed this lesson

transform your English speaking ability

because I as an American speak like this

and use these real English sentences so

if you do as well you’ll speak like me

now remember you can always join my

Academy and I would love to be your

description for joining my Academy and

I will see you there you still there

okay all right now it’s story time

so I told you at the beginning that I

love to travel so one day my friends is

when I was living in Korea one of my

closest Korean friends we decided to go

out to eat and she and I were just

having a really long and good

conversation and suddenly she looked at

me and said TIFF and I said yeah you

know what’s up we’ve been talking for a

long time so suddenly she said do you

want to go somewhere I said I want to go

somewhere now here’s the thing I’m a

very organized person which I know you

guys know so I usually have everything

scheduled out but this trip wasn’t

planned

she said well let’s just get on the bus

and let’s just go to the beach so in

Korea there’s a beach called Sokcho

Beach right and it’s very beautiful and

it was about maybe two and a half to

three hours away from where we were so

she asked me and I said well I didn’t

have to work the next day uh let’s do it

so now remember guys I literally was

just at the restaurant with my friend

which means we didn’t have any bags we

didn’t have anything but the clothes on

our backs and our wallets we went to the

bus station

we bought a ticket for the bus and we

jumped on the bus and we went to the

beach again there was no plan and we got

there I think it was around 11:30 at

night or midnight we didn’t have a hotel

we didn’t have a house to stay in so we

went to what’s called a ginger bun so

ginger bong in Korean it’s kind of like

a bath house so you can go there and you

actually have an area you can sleep in

so my friend and I went there and we

there’s a big room everyone sleeps we

slept in the room where everyone slept

and we talked a lot we slept we got up

in the morning and we went to the beach

we walked around and we had a great time

but that’s what I’m saying

I love

so even though there was no plan we got

up we hit the road we got on the bus and

we just went and we both laughed because

we had never done that before but the

funny thing is after that we would do it

on a regular basis at least once or once

every other month it would just

spontaneously go on a trip and it was

such a great time so let me know do you

guys like traveling do you enjoy

spur-of-the-moment

which means with no plan at all do you

like spur-of-the-moment trips I would

love to hear it I’ll talk to you in the

next video guys
