Do you always say “You look nice” or “Good job” when you want to compliment someone in English?
Those phrases are perfectly correct, but there are many more natural and meaningful ways to give compliments.
In this episode of 5-Minute English Talk, Chris and Jane teach you how to give compliments naturally in English and how to respond confidently when someone compliments you.
You'll learn useful expressions for complimenting someone's appearance, clothes, skills, work, personality, and achievements. You'll also discover why specific compliments often sound more genuine than general ones.
The simple idea to remember is:
Notice Something → Be Specific → Be Genuine
