Listen Later

Today you're going to learn a lot of different ways to say "yes" in English.

But wait – why should you learn these expressions, when you could just use "yes" to keep things simple? There are two good reasons:
  1. So that you can understand native English speakers, because we use these expressions all the time. If you only know the word "yes," then you might be confused when you hear someone say "Why not?" or "Be my guest!"
  2. So that you can express your own answers in creative ways. Some of these expressions actually add additional meaning beyond a simple "yes," so it's important to learn types of situations where you can use them.
