I am teacher Prix and I want to help you talk to anyone anywhere anytime in English. Second
video of this video series, where you are going to learn useful questions and possible
answers for specific situations. Today, you are going to listen
to questions and possible answers about likes and so Let’s get started
Number 1 What do you like to do in your free time?
I’m really into sports, you know! So, I like to run, to go to the gym and stuff.
I’m really into means I like, I I really like
“You know” is a slang, it is an informal phrase you say before you continue your answer
or speaking). And stuff, it is also an informal phrase you use when you don’t know what
else to say, when you don’t have any more things to say or to talk about that subject.
You know… I (really) like to watch movies and stuff
I can’t get enough of TV series! I love watching TV series!
I can’t get enough of means you love something so much that you can’t stop doing it
Number 2 Are you into Game of Thrones? That means, do you like Game of Thrones? Are you
into Game of Thrones?
Absolutely! I never miss an episode! Of course! I really dig it -
Not really, “it is not my thing” No, not a fan!
I love it! I always watch it!
“Not my thing” this means, this is an informal way to say that something is not
the kind of thing that you enjoy, that you like. You are not interested in that kind
thing or you do not like that kind of thing “I really dig it” is an informal way to
say you really like it
Number 3 Are you into sports? (do you like sports? Are you interested in sports? Are
you into sports) Not really! Not my thing!
Well, it depends on the sport. I like soccer, but that’s pretty much it
“But that’s pretty much it” means that’s all I have to say, only soccer “all” I
can say I Like about sports.
I can’t stand sports! I really don’t like it!!
When you say “I Can’t stand” you mean you hate it! You really really don’t like
something
Number 4 - Do you like to sing? Oh! That’s definitely NOT for me! I’m
a horrible singer! Yes! I love it! I sing all the time
Nope! I am not a good singer!
Number 5 Do you like social media? Oh, I really dig it! I’m addicted to social
media! To dig means to like, you really like something.
I’m addicted to - In this case, it means you can’t stop using social media, you are
addicted, you like it so much, you can NOT stop, it is an addiction.
Number 6 Do you really like healthy food? Well, I don’t love it! But I don’t hate
it either! I can’t stand healthy food BUT I need it,
so I eat it!
Number 7 Do you like to work? I don’t mind working. But I don’t like
to work on weekends! I don’t mind means It is ok with me, you
politely say something is “ok”, in this case, I you don’t mind working, it is ok,
it is not a problem for you I kinda like it! Well, it pays the bills,
so I kinda like it!
