Speaker 1: Hey there, it's Michael here and welcome back to another

00:00:05,799 --> 00:00:11,720
Happy English Saturday short. Your quick tip for speaking English

3
00:00:11,919 --> 00:00:17,399
better today, Let's look at a really common and powerful phrase,

4
00:00:18,199 --> 00:00:21,559
let me tell you something. We use let me tell

5
00:00:21,559 --> 00:00:25,480
you something when we want to share our feelings, give

6
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:30,519
an opinion, or emphasize what we're about to say. It

7
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:35,479
helps grab the listener's attention and makes your speech sound

8
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:40,280
more natural and more emotional. Let's say your friend just

9
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:45,119
asked you about a new restaurant in town. You could say, oh,

10
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,840
let me tell you something. Their pasta is incredible. Or

11
00:00:50,399 --> 00:00:53,159
maybe you saw a movie and a friend says she

12
00:00:53,439 --> 00:00:57,719
heard it's boring. You can say, let me tell you something,

13
00:00:58,159 --> 00:01:01,520
that movie is one of the best I've seen this year.

14
00:01:02,479 --> 00:01:05,959
We also use it when we feel strongly about something.

15
00:01:06,599 --> 00:01:10,680
Let me tell you something. Learning English takes time, but

16
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,319
it's totally worth it. So remember, let me tell you

17
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,439
something is a great way to add emotion, confidence, and

18
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,239
a strong opinion to what you say. It's natural, friendly,

19
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,599
and it makes your English sound alive. And let me

20
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:32,040
tell you something. If you keep practicing with these Saturday shorts,

21
00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:35,760
your English is only going to get better and better.
