we’re going to be talking about the top
25 english nouns these are the top 25
most commonly used nouns in English so
let’s get started the first noun is the
word name name of course is used in
common questions like what’s your name
my name is and so on
my favorite actor’s name is Harrison
Ford something like that the next word
is time time is used of course to
express the point in the day is used in
questions like what time is it can you
tell me what time it is I don’t have any
time lately if you’re really busy
have you any time it’s time for my
favorite show house of cards Kevin
Spacey is cool the next noun is man
please be careful man is one of those
words that has an irregular plural form
when you need to use the plural of the
word man you should say men do not say
man’s it’s very funny but don’t say it
who’s that man or what’s up man you can
use man with men or women interestingly
enough the next word is woman woman also
has an irregular plural form please say
women when referring to more than one
woman not women’s or woman even though
the the singular and the plural form of
women and women have the same spelling
at the beginning WOM the pronunciations
are different woman women so watch out
for that when you say that’s pretty
woman the next word is person person you
can use it to refer generally to either
a man or a woman please be careful
persons plural form becomes people when
you want to talk about another culture
for example you can say such-and-such
countries people or the people in that
country speak up about language the next
word is thing generally an inanimate
object something that is that just
doesn’t move like a water bottle or you
know a sweater a thing you can use it
when you don’t know the word for
something so thing is very very useful
what is this thing I like many things
for example where the wild things are
the movie that’s already out that I
totally knew about no the next word is
mother mother is the person the woman
who gave birth to you with net exciting
mother is commonly shortened to mom or
mama or
mommy ma madre if you speak Spanish
mum mum bah if you’re me mamacita the
next word is day of course day is used
in all of the days of the week Monday
Tuesday Wednesday is pressure Sunday
time period when the Sun is out the day
or the day time have a nice day
the next word is world world just refers
to the entire planet Earth I like to
travel all around the world or I like
trying foods from all around the world
in the world of science this is an
upcoming technology or in the world of
literature he’s one of the most famous
authors so world’s can be used to refer
just just to kind of a more specific
hobby or a specific interest or just a
specific person’s life more of worlds
father author is your dad
other other common words used for father
are dad Papa pop daddy ha ha ha while
mother is used to refer to kind of like
nurturing kind of like you know the
earth or things that like kind of give
life to others father at least in my
mind there’s kind of this image of
someone who’s a little bit more strict
in your life the next word is sister a
female sibling is your sister you can
also use sister for a female person that
you feel very very close with so I might
call my female friend who’s I’m very
close to my sister my brother likes to
shorten it to sis
you might also hear sista as well if you
are silly sister Whoopi Goldberg was in
a famous movie called Sister Act the
next word is brother brother is a male
sibling you can also use brother to
refer to a close male friend common
variations of brother are brother bro
bra Rosie
brewski depending on what kind of person
you are you can choose to use any number
of those like I might sarcastically say
to my friend cool story bro look if he’s
told me a story that’s not very exciting
in Mario for example the name of the
Mario game is actually super mario
brothers but brothers is abbreviated as
BRS super mario bros yeah just be
careful about your use of bro because it
sounds a little bit like a college-age
boy that’s kind of the
kind of the feeling of the word bro oh
brother where art thou the next word is
daughter daughter is a female child
daughter do you have a daughter I have a
daughter I don’t have a daughter
taken its son a male child is someone’s
son son s Oh n is pronounced exactly the
same as s u n son what are you talking
about son the next word is AI e ye I
your AI is the round thing that you used
to see with AI is used in a lot of
expressions and idioms in English as in
I’ve got my eye on you
meaning I’m watching you or keep your
eye out for something meaning please
look for something or please pay close
attention I’m waiting for something to
happen the next word is hand body parts
give me a hand
or can I give you a hand means please
help me or can I help you to give
someone a hand head this thing on the
top of your body your head we use head
to refer to the top of things as in the
head of a company the head of a group
the head of the line so whoever is first
in the line whoever is top at the
company they are the head if you have a
head dance the next word is foot this is
another word that has a weird plural
form 1 foot 2 feet
foot interestingly enough foot is used
of course to refer to your body part a
foot also is a unit of measurement if
you are from America or I believe one
other country in the world uses this
system sorry we’re not onboard with a
metric thing in America but foot is 12
inches about this long
so if head refers to the top of things
foot is used to refer to the bottom of
things if you’ve written a paper on
Microsoft Word for example at the very
bottom of the page there will be a space
called the footer meaning the bottom
where you can put little notes to your
reader the next word is place place can
be used to refer generally to a location
commonly to refer to friends homes or
apartments let’s go to your place or can
we have the party at your place is a
little bit more natural than I want to
go to your house
the next word is work be careful about
using work as a noun and work as a verb
your work refers to your job your
responsibilities your tasks at your
office or your workplace you can use it
in a phrase like I have a lot of work to
do or please help me with my work I like
to go to work it can be used to just
refer to anything artistic in general so
it can mean it can be a painting it can
be a building it can be a sculpture it
can be I don’t know whatever anything
artsy can be referred to as work as in I
really like that new work by that artist
or did you see so-and-so’s new work
twork the next word is weak weak refers
to the seven-day period that we have
decided is one week here in the modern
world commonly used in expressions
relating to your activities as in I go
to the gym once a week or I see my
friends twice a week or I have to work
every day of the week Monday through
Friday is referred to as weekdays

month month is there are 12 months in a
year my favorite month depending on

February what year were you born or I

as in many years ago I went to bla bla
bla year the platypus next is the word
one the number one the first number one
of something to refer to somebody who
you loved and who left your life you can

back to top words my name is Alisha and
today we’re gonna be talking about 20
travel phrases that you should know so
let’s go do you have any recommendations
the first phrase is do you have any
recommendations this is great to use
when you get to a restaurant where you
don’t know what the food is you don’t
know anything about the local cuisine or
you’re just feeling a little bit
adventurous you can ask the waitstaff do
you have any recommendations how much is
this how much is this this is useful
when you’re out shopping or when you’re
in a restaurant and the price is not
clearly marked or something is not clear
to you so you can ask how much is this
usually when you point to something I
would recommend like pointing to the
menu are pointing to an item how much is
this I’d like this you can point to
something and say I’d like this if you
want to say I’d like one for example I
don’t know you’re getting beer I’d like
one of these if however you’re in a
situation where you can’t point you can
say I’d like ten of the blah blah blah
I’d like ten of blue t-shirts please can
I try this on is useful when you’re
shopping for clothes so you find
something that you’d like to try just
ask the staff can I try this on you can
just say I want to try this on if you
like do you speak English
you might get asked this phrase so you
should say if you’re watching this video
you should probably say yes or you can
say yes a little if you’re not feeling
very confident if you’re watching this
video and you’re understanding this part
and you say no then things that’s a
little strange
I have a reservation usually the staff
will greet you and you can say I have a
reservation hello I have a reservation
it’s at seven o’clock the name is Alisha
usually we say the name is or it’s under
meaning the reservation is under my name
or it’s for name or it’s in name water
please
depending on which country are from
water may or
not automatically be brought to your
table when you’re in a restaurant if you
would like more water however you can
say water please to make it a little
more polite
I would like wave at the waitstaff and
say could I please have some more water
do you take credit cards do you take
credit cards in case you’re not sure if
the shop that you’re in will accept
credit cards or debit cards you can ask
them do you take credit cards it’s so it
doesn’t mean do you take meaning are you
going to take my card
but this take means do you accept credit
cards this isn’t what I ordered so if
you’re at a restaurant you order steak
and you get lobster instead you can look
at it and go oh this isn’t what I
ordered
be careful though saying this politely
if you look at the waitstaff and you say
this isn’t what I ordered they’re gonna
be like I don’t know just be a nice
customer excuse me but I don’t think
this is what I ordered or this isn’t
what I ordered
can you please check could we have the
menu please if for some reason you don’t
receive a menu when you come to the
table you can again just wave it a
member of the staff and say could we
have the menu please could you give me a
discount could you give me a discount
means I would like a cheaper price
essentially it depends on which country
you’re in if haggling or bargaining
meaning talking to the seller to try to
reduce the price my family didn’t
bargain we didn’t haggle so I don’t
haggle depends on you and your culture
but just yeah just be be aware of the
culture that you’re in and the place
that you’re in before you ask this
question do you have any vegetarian
dishes ah this is useful some people
have specific eating requirements or
eating needs maybe food allergies for
example you can replace vegetarian with
the specific dietary requirement that
you have do you have any vegan dishes do
you have any gluten-free dishes do you
have any low-fat dishes do you have any
low-carb dishes do you have any fish
free dishes do you have any could you
take a picture of me please if you are
in a location where you would like to
take a picture but you don’t want to do
a selfie or you don’t have a selfie

to take a picture of you astray
but you don’t know you can ask them
could you take a picture of me please or
excuse me
would you mind taking a picture of me
please I’m allergic to blah blah blah if
you have a food allergy or even an
allergy to a medicine this is the phrase
you can use to explain that I’m allergic
to wheat or I can’t eat wheat for
example is the Wi-Fi free meaning can I
use the Wi-Fi free of charge
keep in mind some places have a password
that you have to ask the staff for so
you can say is the Wi-Fi free if they
say yes you can then follow that up with
can I have the password I’d like to have
a non-smoking seat please so when you go
to a restaurant you have an option
between smoking and non-smoking sections
the staff will say smoking or
non-smoking you can say I’d like to have
a non-smoking seat please quite honestly
though the most natural response is just
to say non-smoking could I get a map
maybe it’s a map of the subway system
for the city that you’re in or maybe
it’s a map of the area around your hotel
you could say could I have a map as well
could I have the check you’re finished
it’s your cafe you’re finished at the
restaurant and it’s time to leave it’s
time to pay so you say to the waitstaff
excuse me could I have the check another
more common expression perhaps as excuse
me check please
you might also hear bill excuse me can I
have the bill where is the bathroom
very important question if you’re
traveling in America we don’t really use
the word toilet or washroom very much we
use bathroom or restroom to talk about
toilet facilities excuse me can you tell
me where the bathroom is
or excuse me I’m looking for the
bathroom or I’m looking for the restroom
is this the train for blah blah blah
or is this the train that goes to blah
blah blah to confirm with someone that
I’m indeed on the correct train line if
I say is this the train bound for San
Francisco you can use that to check if
you’re correct so that’s the end those

101.com hi everybody my name is Alisha
and today we’re gonna be talking about
the top 25 English phrases so let’s get
started the first phrase is hello hello
of course is used as a greeting you can
greet your friends you can greet your
co-workers your family with this phrase
just by saying hello Hey hi what’s up
hello sup yo pretty much anytime of day
you can use hello hello the next phrase
is good morning good morning is used as
a greeting in the morning you can kind
of feel when morning ends for you good
morning is nice and polite or even just
morning with your close friends or close
co-workers the next phrase is good night
good night is fine we don’t use this to
greet other people we use it when we’re
saying goodbye to other people at night
family members particularly mothers and
fathers to say good night to their
children before they put them to bed you
can say it to your friend in a text
message or in an email if you’ve been
talking for a while good night so the
next word to talk about is goodbyes use
it when you say goodbye to your friends
when you leave your friends good bye bye
of course take care have a nice day
peace out that’s another way to say
goodbye okay the next phrase is I’m plus
your name of course this is a way to
introduce yourself you can use I’m in my
case Alicia I’m Alicia to introduce
yourself in any situation new friend I’m
Alicia
okay the next phrase is what’s your name
what’s your name is used to ask someone
else what their name is so what is your
name sounds a bit try to use what’s your
name if you forget someone’s name you
can say sorry what’s your name
or sorry what’s your name again next
phrase is nice to meet you nice to meet
you any time you meet someone new nice
to meet you is fine good to meet you is
a little more casual great to meet you
sounds very excited pleasure to meet you
sounds like maybe a formal situation or
a business context okay the next phrase
is how are you how are you is Ann
it’s just a friendly way to check in
with the other person you can use it
with friends your family your co-workers
maybe even your boss to a certain degree
how are you how you doing the next
phrase is I’m fine thanks and you if you
saw English in three minutes we talked a
lot about this phrase instead of I’m
fine thank you and you say I’m good
thanks how are you just shorten it and
make it a little bit more natural how
are you good how are you great how are
you not so good how are you okay and so
on so when someone says how are you
offer I usually say I’m good this week I
pop a blog give some information about
what you’ve been up to maybe a hobby
something that you did recently an event
something interesting you saw whatever
people want to make that connection with
you and it’s a good chance for you to
continue speaking the next word is
please please as a polite phrase used
when you want something from someone
else you can use this as a response when
someone offers you something like in a
restaurant for example would you like
more water would you like something to
drink
oh please the next phrase is thank you
thank you is used to express your
appreciation you can use thank you with
everybody the next phrase is you’re
welcome you’re welcome when someone says
thank you you can say you’re welcome
no biggie I use no biggie as in no
biggie is short for no big problem an X
where it is yes yes of course yes means
is any positive expression someone asks
you a question and the answer is a
positive answer you say yes yep uh-huh
yeah we know next I’m guessing I knew it
yep the next word is no no is a negative
response to something when you have to
give a negative answer so as you can
probably guess the long form of no is
negative I like to use nope it’s very
very casual not gonna happen
my parents would use that with me to
soften that a little bit if you want to

clear but it caught on among everybody

very useful word because you can use it
