      Could you please make an imitation lesson, it will help us understand connected speech better. I know Sabrah made one in the past, it was fun. This time it should focus on a different context e.g requesting something or introducing yourself or any topic of your choice. Thanks ☺

    I have an american friend, so when she speaks too much fast, I always say her: Sorry, I didn't catch what you said! Then when I speak in Italian (fast) she often says me: Say what? Now I will try to use other expressions, I'm curious to see her reaction! And Leila, I can understand you! I have a friend that always says me: “Eh?”... So annoying! Thanks again for this very interesting lesson! 💯

    Unfortunately, as an italian speaker, I have to admit that, it's our habit to say: "ehhh? " ...but it's so difficult to lose this bad behaviour. I definitely struggle to be more polite and often, I answer saying: "Sorry" ... But I'm not focusing on the topic object of the speech, I could say: "ehh? " ... So it's a fight! 😊👋

    I work in an area with 15 overhead fans and 7 fans in an ice case for a seafood/meat market department at a supermarket. What bothers me are the customers who are so quiet I cannot clearly hear their order. These problems get compounded when water, soap, or sanitizer is running. These problems happen repeatedly and are extremely frustrating! Why must I ask the customers to speak up when they should know the environment where I work and speak up?

    "Excuse me?" and "I beg your pardon?" tend to sound confrontational, so I would avoid them if I were you. Then again, maybe they don't have so much of that connotation in the UK.

  • @olive3700

    "What did you say?" with a tipped head, polite frown and a soft voice is fine. "Excuse me," and "Sorry," makes people wonder what you're apologizing for. "Come again," is confusing and old fashioned.

    In my view ''What did you say' is the worst. 'what', 'ya what' etc. are bad. 'what did you mean by', 'I didn't get what you mean', 'I didn't catch what you said', 'I'm not sure I understand what you mean by' etc. are not good. 'That went over my head', 'It's all Greek to me (a quotation from Shakespeare)', 'What are you on about', 'that was clear as mud' etc. are complicated and unclear.
    We should use the phrases/words/idioms that are short, easy, lucid and polite

    I always use: " I beg your pardon ?" or "I beseech your pardon ?" Do I make any mistake? . Sei bellissima. Come va con l'italiano? Un abbraccio alla nuova mamma. Buona Estate. Andrea

    Lots of Italians say "eh?" 😏 that's why your lovely husband said so!
    Southerners prefer to say "ah?"

      Alternatives to avoid saying "eh?" " what?"
      Use the fall-rise intonation for these expressions.
      1. Sorry?

      7. Sorry, I didn't (quite) follow...

    "hã?" is a very natural way of asking "could you repeat?" in portuguese. Should give some break to your husband :)

    Don't teach non-native speakers to say "Sorry" it's even more irritating and grating than "eh" with its intonation.. "Pardon" would be better
