small talk
? Small talk is a type of conversation we make when we are talking to people we don’t know well. It’s one of the most important speaking skills to develop when you learn English. In this lesson, I will teach you what you should and shouldn’t talk about with people you don’t know well in North America. The topics that are appropriate for small talk are different in different cultures, so these might be different from what you’re used to, depending on where you are from. We will also talk about how to politely leave a conversation. Small talk can help you connect with new people, make friends, network, and it can also help you feel more comfortable in a conversation.

Great lesson, thank you…!!!
Good lesson and my comment has nothing to do with Emma, but in the U.S. it has became ridiculous. Tired of ‘I like your shoes hat etc.’ that are from retailer and are just regular ones. Tedious and boring, the elevators are the best.
After this one I went on youtube to watch how to avoid small talk. )))))
Thank you!! for the great lesson today…

Superb class dear Emma I don’t know what I like most the right answers or the funny options they are a lot witty I bet you do it all… anyway dear Emma please why do you pronounce Torono to your home town I thought it was Toronto or is it?
Well…… Greetings from Surco….
It’s good that you are listening so closely, Marc. Most people in North America and especially in the city itself pronounce it that way, “Torono”, or even something like “Trana” (!), rather than saying “To-ron-to” very clearly. We are lazy speakers!
Muchas gracias Emma. Bendiciones!

Emma, another tip for small talk is this: You never ask a negative question or if the answer will be yes or no, because it cuts the conversation.
