Keep Talking!

ការបន្តការសន្ទនាកុំឱ្យដាច់

Don't let the conversation die! Use comments to show interest and follow-up questions to get more details.

កុំបណ្តោយឱ្យការសន្ទនាដាច់កណ្តាលទី! ប្រើប្រាស់ការបញ្ចេញមតិដើម្បីបង្ហាញចំណាប់អារម្មណ៍ និងសួរសំណួរបន្តដើម្បីដឹងព័ត៌មានបន្ថែម។

The Echo Technique

បច្ចេកទេសត្រាប់តាមពាក្យគន្លឹះ

Repeat a key word as a question. It shows you are listening and prompts them to explain more.
(និយាយត្រាប់តាមពាក្យសំខាន់ដើម្បីឱ្យគេពន្យល់បន្ថែម)

A: I went to a great restaurant. A: ខ្ញុំបានទៅភោជនីយដ្ឋានដ៏ល្អមួយ។

Function: Echo + Follow-up B: A restaurant? Which one? B: ភោជនីយដ្ឋាន? មួយណាទៅ?

A: I want to buy a new car. A: ខ្ញុំចង់ទិញឡានថ្មី។

Function: Echo + Comment + Follow-up B: A new car? Wow, what kind? B: ឡានថ្មី? វ៉ាវ ប្រភេទអីទៅ?

warning The Interrogation Trap!

Do not ask question after question!

(កុំគ្រាន់តែសួរសំណួរបន្តបន្ទាប់គ្នាដូចប៉ូលីសសួរចម្លើយ។ ត្រូវបន្ថែមការបញ្ចេញមតិជាមុនសិន!)

"Where did you go? Who with? Why?"
cancel Too many questions!

"Wow, that sounds fun! Who did you go with?"
check_circle Comment + 1 Question.

Hi Sovan! Nodding is a great start, but adding a short comment like "Really?" or "I see" makes you sound much more engaged and friendly in English! chat

If you get stuck and your mind goes blank, just use the magic phrase: "Tell me more about it!" It works for almost any situation and forces them to keep talking! magic_button

Yes! If you echo every single sentence, you will sound like a parrot. Use it just once or twice in a conversation when you genuinely want to show surprise or highlight a specific detail. hearing
