1098 – How to Use “Right” in Conversatio...

Michael DiGiacomo Happy English
About this episode
Go Right. That’s right. We’re meeting at seven, right? All right, let’s go. I’ll do it right away. I need it right now. 

Right is a very common word in everyday English, and in conversation, it does a lot more than talk about direction. We use it to show that we understand, to confirm information, to ask for agreement, to say okay, and to talk about something happening immediately. Have you wondered about the different ways we use right in conversation? If so, you’re in luck - because today, we’re going to look at how you can use right naturally in everyday English.
