Have you ever noticed what nice conversational skills english people have?
I love it, they have the perfect language set to form great natural positive suggestions even with the simplest of things....
Like for example in their normal conversation they almost never say "How are you?" they go straight to "you okay?" its a positive said in a question as if they TELLING you that YOU ARE OK!!!
I just love the english, have you had any experiences?

What a "lovely" conversation! Hope your day is "lovely!" "Lovely" election, wasn’t it? Q: How was your day at work? A: "Lovely!!" After spending a year working in London many years ago....which was of course a "lovely" experience....I am not sure I really knew how to speak "English" or understood it....like when we were invited to a "fancy dress" party and it was actually a costume party or the opposite of it...or say they will "knock you up" and I think I remember it means call you or stop by.....the ambiguity of some of the words may be good for some "lovely" metaphors I guess~!
