Evil Aly joins me for today's English lesson! In this video, you'll learn how to sound polite in British English by using indirect phrases and question tags instead of more direct, potentially rude expressions. We’ll practice natural pronunciation with examples to help you master these polite forms. Whether you're making requests or asking for permission, these expressions will help you sound more respectful and considerate.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

- "Sorry to bother you, but...": How to start a polite request
- "Do you mind if...?" / "Is it alright if...?" / "Would it be okay if...?": Polite alternatives to “Can I...?”
- Indirect questions: Instead of "Do you have the time?" use "You don’t have the time, do you?" to sound more polite
- Adding "by any chance": To soften requests or questions and make them more polite
- "You wouldn’t happen to..." / "Would you?": Using question tags to make requests gentler
- "Sorry, you couldn’t just... could you?": A polite way to make requests that might inconvenience someone, like asking them to turn music down
- These British-style polite phrases are perfect for English learners wanting to avoid sounding too direct or rude in everyday conversations.
- Plus, you’ll get plenty of pronunciation practice to help you sound more natural!
