Your rule number one says to use idioms and phrasal verbs, phrases while speaking, but when I try to use them my mind says whether the listener know the meaning of it?
So I use the same old words. Is that correct? What can be the solution?
Hi!
Glad to hear from you!
You are right! It always depends on your partner. If he/she is a native speaker you can definitely use phrasal verbs and idioms.
If he/she is not a native speaker and you feel that your partner’s English level is not high, you should use simple words and phrases both of you will understand.
Hope this helps!
