Softening advice with “or something”

8:17

Or maybe I'm trying to make you feel like "Hmm, you know, you can listen to my advice,

8:17

but if you don't, it's okay."

8:19

I don't want to be too pushy.

8:21

So you might end some advice with "or something."

8:24

And now I have a challenge for you.

8:26

I want to know where are you thinking about going for your next vacation?

8:30

And can you use a filler expression that you learned today in your sentence?

8:35

Yes, of course, filler expressions are used in conversation, mainly.

8:40

But I want you to repeat the expressions that you learn today, because when you write them,

8:44

when you think about which one to use, you're repeating it in your mind, and hopefully it

8:48

will help you to remember them and learn them so that you can use them yourself.

8:53

So, it's kind of time for me to go, but you know, I'll be back.

8:57

I'll make another video soon, and I'll uh, see you later.
