we go through these 40 common English
words I would love to hear from you
tell me in the comments below this video
how do you increase your vocabulary so
are you using a thesaurus and using a
dictionary
are you listening to movies to songs how
do you increase and expand your
vocabulary in English let's begin by
looking at the first word and that word
is honest now friends if somebody is
honest it means a big truthful
they're not deceitful they are sincere
they're honest
now instead of always describing
somebody as being honest there are other
common English words you could use for
example the word sincere now if somebody
is sincere it means that they are
genuine they're honest they tend to say
what they genuinely feel or how they
behave for example I'm sure Mary is a
sincere person now Frank is a great word
to be using to describe that someone
is open honest in their communication
Frank is a little bit more informal it
is an informal word you could use to
describe to somebody being really really
honest usually also if somebody is Frank
it also means that they are very direct
they're very direct
they're maybe a little bit too honest
when speaking already an example of
Frank and use could be my friend Mary
has been asking me for days now to go
with her to the movies but I really
don't know when I'll go with her as I
don't have a lot of time I ended up
messaging Mary and said Mary to be frank
I really don't know when we'll go as I
have no time another great word another
more informal word you could use instead
of honest is the word blunt friends if
somebody is one they are really really
honest
so there I'm comprising li forthright an
example of these in a sentence could be
my sister bought a new dress yesterday
and I really didn't like it now do you
really care too much about her thoughts
and I told her to be blunt I hate the
dress now the words Frank and one as I
have mentioned before are a little bit
more informal ways of expressing that
somebody or something is really honest
but a nice informal way of saying that
somebody is honest could be forthright
listen carefully and repeat after me
forthright if somebody is forthright it
means that they have direct and they're
very outspoken so very honest they're
very direct they're outspoken they don't
really hide their thoughts for example
yesterday we had a weekly meeting and
now calling Mary is always hiding
something she's not honest it'd be great
if she was more forthright with us about
her future goals and her future plans
let's move on to the next word and that
word is add me add me friends if you
admit something
it means that you confess something to
be true or it to be the case
now instead of always saying and me
there are other words you could use the
first word you could use is confess now
if you confess something it means you
admit that you've maybe committed a
crime or that you've done something
wrong
for example Mary confessed that she
damaged my [ __ ] another word you could
use instead of a meet could be revealed
listen carefully and repeat after me
reveal if you reveal something it means
that you make know some secret or some
information to other people for example
I was really angry when Mary confessed
that she'd damaged my car but I don't
know where she is so I went to our
husband and I forced him to reveal her
whereabouts in the end he finally
revealed her whereabouts friends here
revealed is being used because he
finally told me that secret finally
confessed to Mary's whereabouts friends
both the words confessed and revealed a
great to be using in both informal and
formal situations but a more formal way
of saying that you admit to something is
by using the word of vow listen
carefully and repeat after me
I vow if you have found an idea or a
thought of something you've done it
means are you certain and openly confess
it
for example we didn't know that Bobbitt
changed his face two years ago but only
recently he avowed his change of faith
let's move on and look at other words
synonyms of the word crying now if you
cry in either you shed tears because of
some sort of pain sorrow or some form of
stress now depending on the situation
and why somebody is crying there are
other words you could use prozac for the
word weep
listen carefully and repeat after me
weep weep also means to cry to shed
tears but you may be also
shouting and making
sounds while cream for example Bob was
out in the playground playing with his
friends but they were being really mean
and really cruel to him I call him
weeping in the corner because of their
cruelty the word son is also another way
of expressing that somebody is crying
but if somebody is sobbing the cream
really really loudly and they aren't
gasping for air
for example Barry got some really bad
news yesterday and she broke down and
she sobbed like a child now the next
word tipple you've most likely heard in
TV shows or movies and you may have even
heard of the phrase to all your eyes out
friends to ball means to weep and to cry
really loudly for example yesterday I've
got some really bad news and I bawled my
eyes out
now the next row we'll be focusing on is
the word phone friends please do take
note that talking about weight is always
a sensitive issue so please do keep this
in mind when having conversations in
English but if you do have to describe
somebody's weight there are other words
you could use instead of the word phone
now the word plump means if somebody is
rather first so they are rather round
and they are overweight for example a
rather plump male just crossed the
street you could also use the word
overweight again listen to the
pronunciation and repeat after me
over weight overweight overweight
friends if somebody is overweight it
means that they are carrying excess
weight and they are over the desirable
body bought that person or for their
pipe for example it's time for Mary to
admit that she's overweight and she
needs to do something circle exercise
now the words flabby and choppy are very
informal ways of saying that somebody
maybe is overweight and they've fed now
if somebody has a lot of soft and loose
skin you may use the word flabby this
can be used to describe different parts
of the body but you may
many english-speakers saying that they
may have a flabby stomach so they have a
lot of loose slabs or a lot of loose
parts on their stomach an example of
this in a sentence could be this
exercise really helps me flatten out my
flabby stomach friends if somebody is
choppy they have plump and they a little
bit rounded for example over the last
few weeks
Mary's put on a little weight and she's
looking a little chubby these days let's
move on now to synonyms of the word
boring instead of always describing
something as being boring you could also
use the word tedious tedious friends if
something is tedious it takes long it's
slow and it's really really dull for
example it was a really tedious journey
we went on on the weekend another great
word is the word dull listen carefully I
repeat out loud
dull if something is dialed it's not
really that interesting and it's not
really that exciting for example you're
learning doesn't have to be dull but
also use the word uninteresting again
uninteresting uninteresting is the
opposite of the word interesting so if
something is uninteresting it means that
it is not interesting for example the
scenery in the movie was really
uninteresting now a more formal and
applying way of saying that maybe
someone or something is boring could be
using the word tiresome tiresome now if
something is Tyson it means that it
causes you to feel bored annoyed and
just simply not really interested in
what that person other thing is doing or
saying let's move on and look at other
English words instead of always saying
the word rude friends another way of
saying describing that maybe someone or
something is really is using the word in
plain this is a really nice word it is
great for formal situations now if
somebody is implying
it means the thing I'm not showing or
they simply don't have good manners for
example it would have been rude of us to
refuse his invitation another great
formal way of saying it somebody ISA
brood is by using the word insulin again
listen carefully and repeat insulin if
somebody is insulin it means that they
are really really rude they really don't
have a lot of respect for the people
around them for example I really hate
the insolent tone of Bob's voice now the
word imprudent is also a great formal
word to describe to somebody is rude so
that person is rude and they show no
respect to other people for example
Bob's thoughts are really impudent to
say the least now the next word cheeky
you've most likely heard to describe
children or maybe some sort of playful
people who are a little bit rude but in
an amusing way now you could use cheeky
to describe that somebody is being a
little bit impolite but but they are
funny
for example Mary's daughters only four
years old and at times when she visits
she can be a little bit cheeky let's
move on and look at other English words
you could use instead of always saying
begin now the first word you could use
instead of saying
begin is stun stun if you start
something it means that you begin
something from a certain time or space
for example tomorrow we'll start working
on our project
now the word initiate listen carefully
ARP out loud initiate is a great formal
word to use instead of always using
begin if you initiate something it means
that you cause a process or an action to
begin for example Mary's initiate the
project that we're working on tomorrow
another word you could use is the word
launch again listen carefully launch now
if you launch something it means that
you start or said something or a process
motion for example Bob plans to launch
his advertising campaign tomorrow
the word commence is a great word to be
using in formal settings to describe to
something will begin for example Bob
will commence with the work tomorrow
now if we're talking about a journey a
career that you will begin in the future
said I'm always saying begin you could
use the word embark listen carefully and
repeat out loud in back for example
there is in fact a new career and I wish
her all the best moving on to the word
exactly exactly friends I use this word
quite often to confirm something and I'm
sure you also use this word quite often
as well but there are other words you
could use instead of saying exactly you
could use the word precisely listen
carefully and repeat precisely precisely
now do something is precisely it means
that it is in exact terms it's not vague
at all for example the guidelines would
precisely define another word you could
use is a word completely now if
something is completely done it's
completely honest it's completely true
it means that it is utterly true honest
it is not lacking anything at all
for example that story I told Mary was
completely true you could also use the
word absolutely again listen carefully
and repeat after me
absolutely yes I hope to describe
something with no qualification or
limitation there is no restriction for
example Bob loves his cat he absolutely
adores his cat moving on to the last
word and that word is love friends
instead of always using the word love
you could use other words such as a word
chuckle if you chuckle it means a newt
mark
quietly so you're hiding your life
you're not laughing out loud
you aren't chuckling laughing quietly
for example baby was so surprised when I
saw her yesterday
and I've chuckled at expression on her
face now Google is also a great word to
describe that somebody is laughing in a
silly and a really quiet way you may
hear this thing used in TV shows among
girls and guys in schools when they are
giggling really quietly in classrooms
for example Bob was teaching in high
school and you're really painted when
the students would giggle during plants
now you could also use the word
cattle friends the word cackle does have
negative connotation because it means
that you're laughing at them loud and in
a really rude and harsh way I usually
associate this work with witches because
which is usually laughs in an evil
manner and they cackle not all the time
but most of the time for example the
witch Pat chord at the end of the story
like the word cackle the words [ __ ]
also has a negative connotation friends
evil snickering or you snicker at
somebody it means that you must in a
really unkind waiting for example it
really hurt my feelings when I saw the
children snickering at Mary
they stood there snickering and how she
behaved and it was really hurtful
