  • Hi Bob the Canadian here.

  • There will be times when you are having an English conversation where someone will ask

  • you a question and you will not have the answer.

  • And in that situation you will need to say, "I do not know."

  • They might ask a question like:

  • "Why is the sky blue?"

  • "I do not know."

  • "Why did your cat run away?"

  • "I do not know."

  • "Why did you eat the last cookie?"

  • "I do not know."

  • Now that is the slow, clear, and well pronounced version of that answer.

  • There are two faster versions and the first is proper English and it is contracting the

  • words "do" and "not" into "don't".

  • So you'll have an answer like, "I don't know."

  • "Why did you get a speeding ticket?"

  • "I don't know."

  • "Why did you eat the last cookie?"

  • "I don't know."

  • And the next version which is even faster is not really proper written English, but

  • you will hear it quite often in English conversation.

  • It looks like this and sounds like this, "I dunno."”

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why did you lose your wallet?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why did you eat the last cookie?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why didn't you buy tickets to the baseball game?"”

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why did you get a speeding ticket?"

  • "I dunno."

  • Well that's the response, "I don't know."

  • "I don't know."

  • "I dunno."

  • Bob the Canadian here.

  • Thanks for watching.

  • Don't forget to subscribe and have a great day.

  • "I dunno."

  • "I dunno."

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why did you run so fast?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why did you eat that stick?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why'd you let the dog out?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why'd you eat all the cookies?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why'd you get a speeding ticket?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why'd you jump outta that tree?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why'd you steal my candies?"

  • "I dunno."

  • "Why'd you….

  • Why didn't you do you homework?"

  • "I dunno."
