Sangonera Learns English

Use any of these expressions instead of the common "HOW ARE YOU?" when you greet someone.  You will show a better command of the language and will sound more "english". WHAT'S UP? HOW DO YOU DO? HOW IS IT GOING? HOW ARE THINGS? HOW IS LIFE? WHAT'S NEW? HOW IS EVERYTHING? WHAT'S GOING ON? HOW HAVE YOU BEEN? HOW ARE YOU DOING? WHAT'S HAPPENING?

 This post may be quite useful when it comes to expressing your likes.  One of the things that teachers and evaluators take into account is the variety of expressions and that learners do not sound boring because they repeat the same words all the time.  Here you have some alternatives to "I like":  I ENJOY (me gusta, disfruto): I enjoyed the Oscar's night yesterday. I'M (REALLY) INTO (SOMETHING): (me gusta) I am (really) into sports I'M BIG ON: (estar muy interesado/a en algo): Sue is very big on biology. I FANCY: (gustar) I don't fancy swimming in the sea.  I'M KEEN ON: (estar interesado en algo) The students are very keen on doing the project.  I AM MAD ABOUT (que algo te encante, estar loco por algo) I am mad about reading.  All these expressions are followed by a noun or a verb ending in -ing
