Real English: Phrases for finding an apartment

First mark!
Got 8 correct out of 10.
This lesson is useful especially for me, might be coming back to check this out later. Because I will have to rent out a room when my friend graduated…
Some terms of these phrases are not available/wise to use in a 3rd English country as where am I staying at, Malaysia. Such as “Open plan” and “Period”, if I use this level of word that may not understandable by other people, language is used to communication…
Lastly, Mr.Benjamin, would you like to move to my place? :P

Hi BianLei, you made a point. Some of these expression will not make any sense whatsoever for people living in a different socio-cultural context.

However, for people visiting or living in the U.K. they definitely do make sense

You must be aware of this all the time.

As to the lesson I found it quite interesting. Useful and practical phrases when considering moving to another flat; don’t you think so?

Regards.

Hi teacher, thanks so much for your useful topic. I like the teaching way, it is very interesting and humorous.
Hi BianLei, I do agree with you that some of words meaning like “open plan” or “period” if we talk in a 3nd English country, it will not make sense. I think it is like native speaker’s slang.

Hello every one . Usefull lesson . These are all soft situations in this lesson . I remember going to london and having previously rented a room for 4 days in 2012 just before the olympic games and we had not been allowed to get the room because of a heater breakdown . The landlord just told us with impoliteness that we had to find a new room on our own . Bad situation and let´s say that at that very moment I lost all my words to express my disappointement and try to negociate some help to find a new place where to spend our stay . Are there words to say and not to say in that kind of situation ? Thanks for your help Benjamin and all engvid teachers .

Thank you Benjamin.

that lesson is great

carlvin

I really enjoyed this lesson. But I would like to know how I’m supposed to pronounce correctly the word “directly”. At 8:20 in this video, the teacher says the fist two letters [di] like “die” sound. But, if I look at my dictionary and in some others videos, I notice that the sound of [di] is like the word “different”. So, which one of these pronunciations is correct ? Maybe they are both correct ? Sorry if this question has already been raised gentlemen !
