متن ترانسکریپت انگلیسی ویدیوی ۳۶ پاسخ هوشمندانه و جالب به جمله ?How Are You

(soft music)

– Hello, everyone, and welcome
back to English with Lucy.

Today I’m doing one of your requests.

Somebody asked me how to
respond to “how are you”.

And they don’t just want to
say I’m fine or “I’m good”,

some more advanced,
interesting and creative ways

to answer “how are you”.

Now I’ve mentioned before this question,

“how are you” does not always mean

what do you think it means.

It’s not always necessary
to reply to “how are you”

with “how you are.”

In this lesson, I’m going
to tell you all about

how to answer this very
common and important question

and I’m going to help
you sound more advanced

and more like a native speaker.

For get started, I would just
like to thank the sponsor

of today’s lesson it is italki.

If you haven’t heard of it before

it’s a huge online database of both native

and non native teachers who give one

to one video lessons 24 hours
a day, seven days a week.

You can learn English and
over 130 other languages

from anywhere in the
world as long as you have

a stable internet connection.

It’s an incredibly affordable
way of learning a language

much cheaper than an offline tutor

or a language Academy.

So many people messaged me and asked me

how they can meet and
chat with native speakers.

I talkie is a really great option

because not only do they have
their qualified teachers,

they also have community teachers

who will practise conversation with you.

They’ve given me an
offer to pass on to you,

you can get $10 worth of it credits

in your student wallet
48 hours after making

your first purchase of any amount.

All you’ve got to do is click on the Link

in the description box and sign up.

Right.

Let’s get started with the lesson.

Firstly, I want to discuss
some common mistakes

that non native speakers often make

and some native speakers as well.

And there’s also a perceived mistake,

natives will tell you that you’re wrong

but you’re actually right
and we’ll go through that.

Many people will tell
you that it’s incorrect

to respond to “how are
you” with, “I’m good.”

They say it’s wrong.

It’s not wrong to any
natives who are listening

and thinking, Oh, my
word, my mother told me

it was wrong my whole life.

Your mother was wrong, I’m sorry.

Even my own parents told
me that it was wrong to say

“I’m good”, I should say, I’m well.

However, in this case, good can be used.

I think my parents probably
told me not to say it

because it sounded too American

and as a child, I had this terrible habit

of picking up phrases that
I’d seen on American TV shows

and using them in a tiny
little British accent

and they hated it.

Saying “I’m good” is
grammatically correct if you are

not directly referring to your health.

So if you’re just saying in
general, I am good, it’s fine.

Just as if you would say,
in general, I am bad.

“I’m well” is also fine
and it normally means

that you’re referring to
your health for saying good

or satisfactory.

However, this is where
people get confused.

If you say “I’m doing well” that’s fine,

but be careful when responding
with “I’m doing good.”

Because if you say I am doing good,

it means you are doing good things

like visiting homeless shelters

and donating toys to children’s
hospitals, good things.

You aren’t talking about how you are.

Now, let’s take a look
at some easy ways to say

I’m good or I’m fine.

I’m good, I’m fine, I’m
well, I’m pretty overused

they’re very, very boring.

So if you want to impress an examiner

will impress a native
speaker or just your friends

and family, take a look at these.

We can add pretty.

So we’d say, I’m pretty
good, I’m pretty well,

you could say pretty fine.

Maybe not as much in the UK,
but maybe more in America.

Pretty in this case means fairly.

I’m fairly good, I’m fairly well.

You can also say quite, I’m
quite good, I’m quite well,

but that sounds much more formal.

“I’m quite well, thank
you,” very formal to me.

If you want to emphasise how good you are,

you can say really, I’m
really good, really well.

Now those are still pretty basic.

So what about some more
interesting ways to respond

to “how are you.”

Well, one I really like
is I’ve never been better,

shorten to never been better.

This means that you are
feeling truly great.

You could also say, so far so good.

This is also commonly used
if you’re doing a task

you’re talking about
the progress until now

it’s been going well, your
life has been going well.

Another one one that I’m
seeing a lot nowadays

is can’t complain.

And this can be said in more than one way,

it depends on the tone of voice.

If I say can’t complain,
it means my life’s amazing

but I don’t want to brag about it,

so I’m just gonna say can’t complain.

If I said, “can’t complain,
I guess I can’t complain,”

it means could be worse.

The more common use is the
sort of self deprecating,

not wanting to show off kind of use.

And another one is,
“Better than I deserve.”

I like this one, it’s quite funny.

This is quite a tongue in cheek one.

Okay, I’m going to give
you a couple of silly ones

as well if you want to make
people laugh or cringe.

If you’re a dog lover,

and someone asks you how
you are, you could say,

“if I had a tail, I would wag it.”

(laughing)

And you can also have a
couple of flirty ones.

If someone says “how are you,”

you could reply with Word on the street is

“I’m pretty good.”

(chuckling)

Or I’m great, but I’m totally biassed.

I love those ones, I’m standing on my own

in my studio dancing alone

how much I like these ones.

Now, what do you say if
you’re neither good, nor bad?

If you are, okay, I’m okay is
really, really boring, though.

Let’s look at some other
more exciting ones like,

I’m all right.

(laughing)

Now I wanted to mention I’m all right,

because it’s a unique one in
the sense that it can be both

a question and an answer.

I might say to someone, all right,

and they’ll say, All right.

So it’s like, “how are you”?

Yeah, I’m okay.

It’s very, very frequently used

and just be careful on the pronunciation

we don’t always pronounce the “L”.

We say all right.

Another one is, so so,
so so, could be better.

The next one, not too bad, is again,

one that depends on tone of voice.

If I say, not too bad, it means good,

but in this case, not too bad,

it means, I’m not great.

Another one, could be
better, could be better,

but I could also be worse that something

you can add on to the end.

If everything’s just
really boring and average,

you can say, same old, same old really.

Another couple which
mean you just this close

to being bad is I’m
alive, or I’m surviving.

(laughing)

And the last, good enough, good enough.

There used to be a teacher
at my school Mr. Good Enough

and I thought, what a I
don’t wanna say his name,

but just who named him in the past.

He’s not great, but he’s good enough,

let’s call him Mr. Good enough.

A couple of funny ones,
especially sarcastic ones,

they’re quite useful.

You could say I’m all right now,

but there’s still time for
everything to go horribly wrong.

Or a flat one, better now,
that I’m talking to you.

That’s quite a charming one.

Now what should you say if you are bad,

if you feel terrible, just
you’re not having a good day

for whatever reason.

Well, quite a good way
to start off a complaint

or a negative phrase is to start with,

I’m not going to lie…

That is a nice way to prepare someone

for the negativity that is
about to escape your mouth.

I’m not gonna lie, I feel terrible.

You could also say, I’m not doing so well

or I’m struggling a bit,

these to imply that you’re struggling,

maybe a little bit mentally
or emotionally as well.

So it’s important to
watch out for somebody

who says these to you,
because they might need

a bit of support.

The same way with “I’m snowed under”

to be snowed under means
you’ve just got too much work,

you’re completely under pressure.

Or it’s been a tough day, week or year.

It’s been a bit of a tough week.

Another one, I’m not having
an easy time at the moment.

Watch out for people who say those phrases

because sometimes they’re
reaching out a little bit

and might need support.

Now what happens if you feel bad,

but you don’t necessarily
want to talk about it?

Well, I have some phrases you
can use to avoid the question.

If someone asks, “how are you”,

you could say you don’t want to know.

Or don’t ask, honestly, just don’t ask me.

Another one, “Do I have to answer that?”

Maybe if they know that
you’re not having a good time,

and they’ve asked, “how are you” anyway,

which is a bit annoying, you could say,

“Do I really have to answer that,”

I think you already know.

Or what happens if somebody
asks “how are you” really early

in the morning, you could say,

“it’s too early to tell.”

And if you are feeling ill
a nice idiom we can use is,

I’m a bit under the weather.

I’m feeling a bit under the weather,

I’m not feeling very well.

And finally, a couple of funny ones,

you could say, “overworked and underpaid!”

I remember there was a teacher
who would always say that

when I asked him how
he was, “how are you,”

overworked and underpaid, but
I’m doing Okay, thank you.

You could also say, slowly
but surely dying actually.

Aren’t we all?

If you want to be really sarcastic,

you could say, somewhere
between blah and meh

or if you just need a hug, you could say,

just hug me and leave it at that.

Right, that’s it for today’s lesson,

I hope you enjoyed it and I
hope you learned something.
