people but we don't have to use the word yes because there are so many other

options hello everyone my name is Anna and if you're here to learn English and

then make sure you click on that subscribe button and don't forget to

press the bell so you don't miss any future lessons

right let's learn some English so there are many ways to say yes and some of the

informal versions that you'll hear are yeah and yeah and uh-huh like I said

these are informal Anna do you like watching films yeah Anna did you eat

breakfast this morning yep I really think mom and dad will

enjoy watching Game of Thrones what do you think uh-huh so how do we respond to

a request for example may I take this seat well if the request starts with may

I or can I then you could reply with you

may or you can so if you say to me Anna may I take this seat I could say you may

or if you say Anna can I borrow your pen I might say you can other common ways of

responding are of course sure no problem

by all means see learning a new skill takes time and practice something I know

a lot about here's me after two and a half years of practicing my gymnastic

skills and learning a language is no different so kudos for you for putting

in the time to watching this video but is watching YouTube videos enough to

effectively learn a language good question probably not which is why I'm

happy to tell you about today's sponsors italki an online language learning

provider that makes language effective convenient and

affordable effective because you're learning with human teachers that's

right human teachers not animal teachers I mean have you ever taken a language

class from a cow not recommended convenient because the lessons are

online so you can take them wherever and whenever I took you have a huge database

of teachers so you will never have a problem shared you will in a lesson and

finally affordable something to suit every budget it's more affordable than

paying for an off line tutor a course or even buying software and if you are new

to italki then simply by clicking on the link in the description box below

and booking your first class then you will be rewarded with ten dollars in

credits into your italki account within 48 hours of that purchase.

So after this lesson why not check it out. So how could we respond to an

inquiry using will for example will you be joining us for dinner or will your

dad accept my request well you can respond with the following absolutely

certainly or sure this can be expanded to I sure will depending on the question

of course will you be joining me for dinner I sure will

will your Father accept my request he sure will when accepting an offer like

would you like a coffee or do you want to come to the cinema then you could

simply say definitely or that would be wonderful

of course you can change this word to fantastic great good you could say I'd

love to or I love that or I'd love one depending on the question of course so

if you say would you like a coffee I'd say I'd love one

or would you like to join me at the cinema I love to join you at the cinema

or if you say would you like me to help you I could say I'd love that you could

simply say all right notice that I'm giving a little nod and

smiling at the same time all right that would be lovely thank you or you could

say okie dokie okie dokie is another slightly informal way of accepting an

offer okie dokie let's do that when you are in agreement with a statement like

the view is beautiful isn't it now you might simply say agreed totally

I'm with you sure is of course sure is will change depending on the statement

so if I'm talking about a person she is fantastic isn't she she sure is

it was wonderful wasn't it it sure was they were delicious weren't they sure

were so there you go a handful of common ways to say yes to show you're in

agreement and to give confirmation if you know any other ways of saying yes

which I haven't covered then please do put it in the comment section below

along with an example question and response if you found this video helpful
