Today, we are talking about something every English learner has faced at least once. Maybe you face it every day. People talk fast. Too fast. So fast that your brain feels like it is on fire. You want to understand, you want to join the conversation, but it feels like you are two steps behind.

If this is you, you are not alone. Today, I will help you understand how to respond when people around you are speaking too quickly in English. I will give you three clear phrases you can use when you do not understand. We will look at one helpful grammar point. You will also learn three new vocabulary words that fit this topic. And as always, I will wrap up with a review.

So take a breath, relax, and let us get into it. Let's speak in a clear and natural way when we are asking people to slow down in English!
