| Welcome to Englishwoman’s British English in Three Minutes. The fastest, easiest, and most fun way to learn English. |
| Hey everyone, I’m Gina! |
| In this series, we’re going to learn some easy ways to ask and answer common questions in English. It’s really useful, and it only takes three minutes! |
| In this lesson, you’re going to learn how to ask and answer the question “Have you seen this film?” |
| Sometimes when you’re talking to someone, you might run out of things to talk about. Don’t worry – it happens to everyone! This lesson is going to be really useful in increasing your repertoire of small-talk questions, by focusing on a topic that most people are at least a little bit interested in – films! |
| If you find yourself with nothing to talk about, or if you just really like films, then you can always start a conversation about a new or controversial film. |
| You ask this by saying: |
| “Have you seen [the name of the film]?” |
| The question “Have you seen…” is used when asking about films rather than “Did you see”, because you’re asking about the person’s present state. |
| There are several possible answers to this. |
| If you have seen the film, there are again several ways to reply according to how much you enjoyed it. If you saw it and really enjoyed it, you can say: |
| “Yeah, I really liked it.” |
| Or if you saw it but only thought it was so-so, you can say: |
| “Yeah, it was OK.” |
