  • Hey guys it's Shane from English Understood here.

  • One of the best ways to learn English is to learn answers to common phrases that you will hear all the time.

  • So let's pretend today you go into a coffee shop and the person at the counter says to you 'What can I getcha?'

  • What can I getcha?

  • This means 'What can I get for you?'

  • What would you like to drink?

  • What would you say to him?

  • Let's pretend you want a green tea. What could you say?

  • Three common ways you could ask for a green tea are

  • 'Could I have a green tea, please?'

  • Could I have a green tea, please?

  • I'd like a green tea, please.

  • Or 'I'll have a green tea, please.'

  • I'll have a green tea, please.

  • These are all very polite phrases to ask for something or to order something at a restaurant or a cafe.

  • So the next time you go to a cafe or a restaurant, try one of these phrases.

  • And that is the end of the lesson today.

  • So comment down below and tell me what's your favorite drink to order at a cafe.
