977 - Conversational Response Phrases In English

About this episode

Let’s go to the beach? Yeah, sounds like a plan. Do you ever notice that when someone makes a suggestion in English, native speakers often answer with very short phrases?  Things like:
 “Sounds good.”
 “That works.”
 “No problem.”
 “Sounds like a plan.”

These responses are everywhere in spoken English — at work, with friends, on the phone, and in text messages.

Today, let’s look at these very common response phrases native speakers use to respond to ideas, plans, and requests — and how each one sounds just a little different.
