“How do I learn English?” is a common and important question I hear from my students. The real question they are asking is “How do you learn another language?” In this video, I give you my top 5 tips for learning English (or any new language). The secret to second language acquisition is regular immersion and mass input. But what does that mean? Can you learn English by watching movies and TV shows? Yes! That is a very important part of it, but it’s only one factor. In order to truly immerse yourself in a language, you need to make sure you are activating your receptive and productive skills – that means listening, reading, speaking, and writing.

TRANSCRIPT
Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday, something, something, something - I cant sing. Yeah. Hey, everyone. Im Alex. Thanks for clicking, and welcome to this lesson on 20 Ways to Say Goodbye in English. So, I will give you some set phrases that you can use in your daily conversations. I will also tell you some of the more natural pronunciations of these phrases and these questions so that you are able to recognize them in television shows, and in movies, on the news, YouTube videos - anything else, and youre able to use them yourself to sound more natural in English.
So, lets start with the basics. We have: Goodbye, and the shorter version: Bye. Okay. Easy, right? Were done. See ya.
I said: 20, right? Yeah, I did, so lets keep going. So, another way to say: Goodbye or a way of, you know, saying: Goodbye - I just repeated the same thing, but ignore it. Lets keep going. See you or See you later. Instead of you, you can also just say: ya. Okay? So, repeat after me: See ya. See ya later. See ya later. Its kind of like: See ya. See ya later. All right.
And you also have - hey, a specific time of day or a specific... A specific period in time in the future, so you can say: See ya tomorrow, See ya Saturday, See you at the party, See you at the funeral. Its a weird thing to say to someone, but you know, whatever. All right?
Heres another one, a little more relaxed way to say: Goodbye - All right, see ya tomorrow. Take it easy. This means, like: Dont stress. Relax. Okay? Just take it easy. So, you can say this as a goodbye to someone. Repeat after me: Take it easy. All right.
And if you want to be very polite, of course, you can wish someone a good day, so you can just say: Have a good day. This is especially useful if you work in the service industry. So, if you work at a grocery store as a cashier or at a bank, or if youre talking to someone on the phone, and you end a conversation and you say: All right, bye. Have a good day.
Or below that, two below that: Have a nice day. And instead of saying: Have a good day or Have a nice day, you can also use this phrase, which is: Have a good one, and this means: Have a good day; the one means day. So, lets repeat that one after me. This one is, again, a little more casual, so just repeat it; you can use it in everyday situations: Have a good one.
And for: Have a nice day, for any of your professional wrestling fans... Thats a silly question because most people who are wrestling fans do not want to tell anyone else that they are wrestling fans, so... But in the 1990s there was a professional wrestler named Mankind, also known as Mick Foley, and one of his phrases that he said and hed say it in like a weird way, he would say: Have a nice day! So, theres that. Dont say it that way, but just look up: Mankind, Have a nice day. I think its also the name of the book that he wrote about his career after. Sorry, you want to learn other phrases now. Right? Forget the last 30 seconds and professional wrestling discussion.
All right, you can also say, instead of: See ya later, you can say: Catch ya later. So, here I wrote: Catch you later, so lets do the formal version first. Catch you later. Ah, it just sounds weird because I never say that. Catch you later. You have to say it quickly, and you kind of say: Catch ya, right? Hey, catch ya later. Youre not even really saying, like: Catch ya; youre saying, like: Catcha, okay? So: Hey, catcha later. Okay? But lets say the catch ya, too. Lets say that version, too. Lets practice. Catch ya later. Okay? So, you catch like: Oh, I caught a ball. Its like youre going to catch the person later; like, you will see each other later; you will catch each other. Its a metaphor; it doesnt really work in this situation.
And if you want to be, like, super cool and you dont want to bother with a lot of words because youre so minimalistic, and youre an artist, man, youre an artist, you just want to say: -Hey, later. -Later, what? Just its a word; doesnt mean anything by itself. No, no, no. Later. Okay? So you can just say: Later. All right? Instead of: See you later or Catch ya later - its possible just to say: Later. Goodbye. All right. […] Learn English: 20 ways to say ‘goodbye’](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rmNJAGWclOI/mqdefault.jpg)
