Do you ever notice that we use the word "said" a lot? He said this, she said that, then I said something else. Now there's nothing wrong with the word "said," it's perfectly fine – but the English language has TONS of other options.
Today we're going to learn 40 alternatives to "said" – and as you will see, each one adds some extra meaning describing the way the person said something, or the reason they spoke.
If you want to expand your vocabulary beyond basic words, then you'll love my Advanced Vocabulary and Collocations Course. The lessons inside teach you more than 1000 high-level words to help take your English vocabulary from "simple" to "sophisticated." One student described it as "like a gold mine for my vocabulary."

Do you have difficulty speaking English?

Sometimes the hardest part is simply starting a conversation.
Today you'll learn 40 conversation starters that native English speakers use in various real life situations – formal or informal, at work, school, or other contexts!

These aren't especially "deep" conversation starters like you might want to use on a first date, when you're interested in getting to know someone extremely well. Instead, they are more suited for "small talk" – casual conversation about topics of general interest.
You will learn lots more phrases inside my Everyday English Speaking Courses - they cover tons of situations, like what to say during:
travel
shopping
eating in restaurants
socializing
agreeing/disagreeing
making invitations and requests
giving criticism or advice
expressing your thoughts
...and much more.
I hope to see you inside!
