The correct response to "alright?" Is just "alright". They're not actually asking if you're ok.

Today I wore a new jimjams

[@bbclearningenglish]

👍 Nice example! Quick tip - similar to pyjamas or trousers, we don't need 'a' in front of 'jimjams', so instead we can say: 'Today I wore new jimjams' or 'Today I wore some new jimjams'.

Jimjams kinda sound like a baby thing to say

[@GenerationWhyProductions]

I mean… I think most British people use only one of these words/phrases and that would be “alright?”

[@bbclearningenglish]

We use all of them, but 'alright' is probably the most common ☺️

[@yalvar]

We have to learn a sheer amount of vocabulary, idioms and phrases, and now, to top it all off, british slang 😡. I just want to be a native speaker of one language, and if it has to be English, so be it! The problem is that my country's government won't give in replacing the current language with the English one.
