5
23520
3040
00:26
about recommendations, giving  recommendations in English.
6
26560
5280
00:31
So these are perfect expressions for you to  use in your daily conversations. These sort  
7
31840
5440
00:37
of expressions are used all the time by native  English speakers, so they'll add to your breadth  
8
37280
6480
00:43
of vocabulary and expressions that you can use  and will improve your overall approach to English.
9
43760
6440
00:50
It'll improve your feeling for yourself,  
10
50200
2960
00:53
it'll improve your self-confidence and using  English. So listen to them, play them back,  
11
53160
5960
00:59
try and practice them. And if you've got  any problems, well, just come back to me.
12
59120
3720
01:02
So we've got ten of these expressions  and I'll give you some examples of what  
13
62840
5200
01:08
they mean and when and how you should use  them. Okay, So let's get started. As I said,  
14
68040
4560
01:12
this is an advanced English lesson  about giving recommendations.
15
72600
4760
01:17
So we have these recommendations. The first  one, it's a must see. It's a must-see. What  
16
77360
6200
01:23
that means is you really have to see it when  somebody is recommending something to you,  
17
83560
5440
01:29
whether it's a movie or the theatre or  whatever it might be, It's a must see.  
18
89000
5000
01:34
They mean you must go and see it. So you would  use this if you've been to the cinema recently  
19
94000
6640
01:40
and you saw a great movie and you would think your  friends would like it just, that's a great movie.
20
100640
5000
01:45
It's a must see something you must go and see.
21
105640
4800
01:50
Number two, you won't regret  it. So again, when we're giving
22
110440
4640
01:55
advice or we're making a recommendation,  
23
115080
2920
01:58
you you say, look, you really, really should  try that restaurant in the high Street. It's
24
118000
6280
02:04
really special. The food is excellent  and it's really good value. You won't  
25
124280
4240
02:08
regret it. So when you say you won't regret it,  
26
128520
2840
02:11
it means that you'll there'll be no doubts  in your mind when you've gone there.
27
131360
4000
02:15
You might not have heard of the restaurant  before, and you obviously haven't been there  
28
135360
4040
02:19
before because your friend is going to and is  recommending it so you won't regret. It means  
29
139400
6480
02:25
go there soon as you taste that food  and the ambiance. And and and finally,  
30
145880
4880
02:30
when you get the bill, you'll realize that it was  a good recommendation. You won't regret it at all.
31
150760
6800
02:37
It's well worth seeing. What's something  like the first expression we gave? It's  
32
157560
4960
02:42
well worth seeing how this could be used in  relation to exhibitions or some particular
33
162520
7760
02:50
show that is being shown perhaps  in a museum or an art gallery,  
34
170280
3960
02:54
and that you think your friends would enjoy it. So  when you say it's well worth seeing, it means it's
35
174240
6640
03:00
a good idea to go out of your way or to make an  appointment, or if you've got a free Saturday  
36
180880
5280
03:06
or Sunday evening, then you should go along  and view what the person is recommending.
37
186160
5360
03:11
It's well worth seeing means it'll be  to your advantage. So the art gallery  
38
191520
5960
03:17
or the museum may have a collection  of some impressionist paintings or  
39
197480
5480
03:22
some particular show about Van  Gough or whoever it might be,  
40
202960
4040
03:27
but it's really something different. Perhaps it's  a laser show, perhaps it's done on some form of
41
207000
7680
03:34
reflective photographs of  pictures or some cinematography,  
42
214680
5040
03:39
some different approach that you're not  used to and you haven't seen before.
43
219720
4520
03:44
So your friends really think it's well worth  seeing. So it's something you should go and see.
44
224240
6800
03:51
It could be the latest exhibition about  Tutankhamun. And so if you haven't been  
45
231040
4800
03:55
to see it before, well, you should go  and see it. It's well worth seeing.
46
235840
5760
04:01
And then the next one is don't miss it. So don't  miss it is really an exclamation. So you and  
47
241600
5760
04:07
the intonation in your voice of don't miss it's  you in that movie. It's only going to be on for  
48
247360
4520
04:11
another couple of weeks and I really, really  would strongly recommend it. Don't miss it,  
49
251880
5000
04:16
because you'll certainly regret  it. Everybody is talking about it.
50
256880
4240
04:21
Or it could be the latest Netflix series. You  know, people are very hung up on into their  
51
261120
5680
04:26
Netflix series and people get recommendations  from their friends all the time about them.  
52
266800
5280
04:32
So they say, that Game of Thrones, don't  miss it. It's really, really great. Or  
53
272080
5400
04:37
maybe it's the follow-up sequel to Game of  Thrones. And they tell you, Don't miss it.
54
277480
6120
04:43
The action is amazing. You really  want to be watching episode after  
55
283600
4240
04:47
episode after episode. So try not to miss  it. Don't miss it. That means don't miss  
56
287840
6480
04:54
it. Don't miss it at your peril. Because  if you miss it, you'll regret it. Okay,
57
294320
5600
04:59
So it's a first for them. So it's a must see.
58
299920
3160
05:03
You won't regret it. It's well worth seeing.  And then the fourth one. Don't miss it.
59
303080
8320
05:11
So I could say something like, Don't  miss my next video next week. It's  
60
311400
4920
05:16
supposed to be a great lesson,  so make sure you don't miss it.
61
316320
4640
05:20
And remember, if you like this particular lesson,  then please like the video and if you can,  
62
320960

05:27
please subscribe to the channel because  it makes a great, great difference to us.
63
327000
4040
05:31
Now, number five, you should definitely  go. Okay, so this is not such a hard
64
331040
7360
05:38
recommendation, but you know, if you've got  the time, then you should definitely go.
65
338400
4920
05:43
I would recommend it. You should  definitely go. And what it means  
66
343320
3320
05:46
is you should definitely go to the show.  Or perhaps there's something for the kids,
67
346640
5080
05:51
Perhaps some new
68
351720
1440
05:53
view and the life of Harry Potter or some themed  exhibition about Harry Potter. All the kids would  
69
353160
6880
06:00
love it. You should definitely go. So. Or some  exhibition that has opened perhaps in your city,  
70
360040
7000
06:07
connected with some cultural events or some  historic findings that they have. Discover in  
71
367040
6520
06:13
parts of the city. So these things are always a  great insight into how our ancestors and people
72
373560
6720
06:20
used to live. So we would often  recommend people to go and see it,  
73
380280
4880
06:25
and we'd use this expression. You should  definitely go now. So if you want to see  
74
385160
5800
06:30
it or you want to educate yourself or  the kids, then you should definitely go.
75
390960
5120
06:36
Or if you've gone to London, some  particular city in London or Paris,  
76
396080
5120
06:41
and your friend just hasn't been there  yet. Or is it's a while since he was there,  
77
401200
5040
06:46
then you might say to him, you should  definitely go to Madame Tussaud's,  
78
406240
5840
06:52
the next time you're in London, you should  definitely take a ride on the London Eye.
79
412080
5440
06:57
The next time you're in London, you should  definitely go to the art galleries in Paris.  
80
417520
8080
07:05
Then the next time you're in Paris,  so you're giving them the heads up,  
81
425600
3480
07:09
as we say, or you're giving them a very strong  recommendation. You should definitely go
82
429080
7120
07:16
Now we can also use the expression as follows  I really think you would like this book or I  
83
436200
7600
07:23
really think you would like this film, this  show, this TV series, whatever it might be.
84
443800
5480
07:29
Okay, so
85
449280
1320
07:30
The expression is the same for all of them.  I really think you would like whatever. Okay,  
86
450600
5280
07:35
so when we say that we're giving it a  sort of a vote of confidence from us,  
87
455880
4440
07:40
I really think you would like it. I liked it.  And we've got similar tastes. that's a new  
88
460320
6400
07:46
thriller has been written by J.K. Rowling.  It's a follow-up to her previous series.
89
466720
5480
07:52
And wow, this one is, I think, the  best of the five of the six that  
90
472200
3640
07:55
she's previously written. So I really  think you would like it if you want,  
91
475840
4240
08:00
I will give you my copy when I finished it.  Yeah. So I really think you would like it
92
480080
6520
08:06
And something similar. I highly recommend it  now. I highly recommend it is really giving  
93
486600
6320
08:12
it a top vote of confidence. This could  be for anything. It could be for a hotel,  
94
492920
6080
08:19
a restaurant, a new leisure centre. I highly  recommend going. They've got everything.  
95
499000
6360
08:25
The equipment is so-so good. They've got a  50-meter pool. Yeah. And the gymnasium? It's.
96
505360
6680
08:32
I think it's probably three times the size of any  of that. I've been in. And the equipment is so,  
97
512040
4880
08:36
so modern. I highly recommend it. And the  most important thing is that the membership  
98
516920
5000
08:41
fee. Wow. It's really, really good. And  if you go in the next couple of weeks,  
99
521920
3880
08:45
they've got a special discount.  So I highly recommend it.
100
525800
3200
08:49
If you're thinking of going get rid  of that beer belly that you have,  
101
529000
3440
08:52
take yourself from the family and join  it. We've we've gone home and we're  
102
532440
4560
08:57
going to go again. So would probably  see you there. I highly recommend it.
103
537000
5840
09:02
Or it could be your favourite pizza restaurant  and your friend hasn't been there yet,  
104
542840
4720
09:07
so you really have to go. I've been telling  you about this for months and months. I highly  
105
547560
5000
09:12
recommend it. Their pizza is the best  I've ever tasted. Read a real Italian,  
106
552560
4720
09:17
you think you were in Rome or Milan. The  taste is so, so good. I highly recommend it.
107
557280
7080
09:24
Or you should definitely visit. It is another  way of expressing the same. You should
108
564360
4480
09:28
definitely visit.
109
568840
1280
09:30
Yeah, that's a hotel along  by the beach. It's a great,  
110
570120
4480
09:34
great hotel. They've got great views  from the restaurant. The restaurant  
111
574600
3520
09:38
is up on the first floor, so you get a  great view over the harbor. You should
112
578120
4560
09:42
Definitely visit.
113
582680
1080
09:43
again, the food there. It's not so expensive  
114
583760
2240
09:46
there. A little bit out of town  so that they're not city prices.
115
586000
3960
09:49
You should definitely go or you should  definitely pay it a visit. Why not try it? And
116
589960
5440
09:56
could meet you there and we could have coffee and  
117
596160
2000
09:58
a dessert with you or whatever  you want. Okay. So you should
118
598160
3200
10:01
definitely visit.
119
601360
2040
10:03
And if you want to just having the same theme,  make sure you do this. Yes. So make sure you  
120
603400
5880
10:09
visit. Make sure you go make sure you take  some photographs. Make sure you get a good
121
609280
6560
10:15
walk around the city, the met  some amazing changes. All of the  
122
615840
4000
10:19
streets now are pedestrian-only, so there's no  traffic. So you should make sure that you take
123
619840
8040
10:27
a walk around the city at nighttime  with the lights on. Fantastic. Okay,  
124
627880
5520
10:33
so make sure you do something.
125
633400
3400
10:36
And then finally you can just say Oh,  you have to watch this TV program. It's  
126
636800
5720
10:42
the funniest thing I've seen in years.  I haven't seen something so funny for,  
127
642520
5200
10:47
I don't know, maybe 20  years. You have to watch it.
128
647720
4520
10:52
I'll look up the closing prices on the  Tokyo Stock Exchange at the breakfast table.
129
652240
5080
10:57
Or indeed, you have to visit  the new visitors centre in the
130
657320
5120
11:02
Customs House. So you have to visit.
131
662440
2440
11:04
the new
132
664880
1120
11:06
town in the centre of the  city because they've just  
133
666000
2680
11:08
opened it and got fantastic views across the city.
134
668680
3800
11:12
I got a corporate invitation  there last week. Really,  
135
672480
3120
11:15
really great. So you have to watch or  you have to visit. You have to see.
136
675600
13640
11:32
Okay. So they're all expressions connected  with recommendations. They're about giving  
137
692840
6840
11:39
recommendations that are sort of expressions  that British native English speakers use all  
138
699680
5960
11:45
the time. And if you practice, some  of them try to learn a few of them by  
139
705640
3520
11:49
heart and drop them into your conversations,  you'll get a great boost in your confidence.
140
709160
5840
11:55
thanks as always for watching and listening.  
141
715000
2880
11:57
And this is Harry saying goodbye.  And join me for the next lesson.
