hey you what's up?
[2]
I'm fine thank you.
[4]
does this happen to you?
[5]
when somebody asks you
[6]
what's up? and you don't have
[8]
any answer or you get confused
[10]
what to say
[11]
well if yes this video is for you
[14]
watch the video till end and
[15]
learn how to answer if somebody
[17]
asks you what's up in English language
[19]
there are so many types of
[20]
greetings and when you meet
[22]
somebody for the very first time
[24]
the basic question is
[25]
how are you?
[27]
but how are you is not the only
[29]
way to ask how are you
[31]
I mean there are so many other
[32]
ways to ask somebody
[33]
how they are?
[34]
and in the same way
[35]
you can't reply every time
[37]
I'm fine how are you
[39]
I'm fine
[40]
how are you
[41]
I'm fine
[42]
how are you
[42]
I'm fine
[44]
oh god it's so boring
[46]
so in this video I'm gonna
[47]
explain to you
[48]
how you can ask how are you
[50]
in different ways
[51]
also how you can answer
[53]
different type of questions when
[54]
you meet someone
[56]
all right let's get started
[58]
so if somebody ask you
[60]
how are you or
[61]
how are you doing
[63]
they both have the same meaning
[64]
and you know how to answer them
[66]
right? you can answer
[68]
I'm fine I'm good I'm all right
[71]
I'm okay I'm doing well thank you
[74]
so this is the basic way to
[76]
ask how are you
[77]
now another way to ask
[78]
the same question is how's it going
[81]
here 'it' means your life
[83]
so the person is actually asking you
[85]
how's your life going?
[86]
and this time you can't answer
[88]
I'm fine because in the question
[91]
the subject is it so in the answer
[93]
you have to say it
[95]
so how would you answer if
[96]
somebody ask you how's it going ?
[98]
you may say it's fine
[100]
it's good, it's going well, it's all right
[104]
so if somebody ask you
[105]
how are you?
[106]
you should answer like this and
[107]
if somebody asks you how's it going?
[109]
you should answer like this
[111]
I'm fine it's fine I'm good it's good
[115]
I'm all right it's all right
[118]
now some people may ask you
[120]
the same question in a different way
[122]
they can ask you hey buddy
[124]
how are things?
[125]
in this case things with s letter
[127]
in the last is a plural
[129]
so your answer also should start
[131]
with they
[132]
they are fine
[133]
they are good
[134]
they are all right
[136]
now if you haven't seen somebody
[137]
for a long time they may ask
[139]
you how have you been
[141]
or how's your life
[143]
in this case you may answer
[145]
I have been good thank you
[147]
or it's all good thank you
[149]
now let's talk about this trending phrase
[152]
what's up
[153]
so many people around you ask
[155]
this right so what does it mean?
[158]
when somebody asks you
[159]
what's up
[160]
they literally mean what are you doing?
[162]
so if somebody's asking you
[164]
what's up
[165]
they actually wanna know
[166]
what's happening around you ?
[168]
or what are you doing?
[170]
or what's happening with you?
[173]
so you can't use an adjective here
[175]
to define yourself like
[176]
I'm fine I'm good
[178]
no you need to use an action here
[181]
like if somebody's asking you what's up
[183]
you can say
[184]
hey I'm just reading a book
[186]
what's up?
[187]
getting bored
[189]
hey what's up?
[191]
I'm having my dinner
[193]
so in response you always need to tell
[195]
the person what you are actually doing
[197]
that time
[198]
but sometimes it's like
[199]
we don't do anything and
[200]
there is nothing literally happening
[202]
around us
[202]
now how would you reply
[204]
so for that there are some universal
[206]
phrases that you can answer with
[208]
every time literally every time
[210]
if somebody's asking you what's up
[212]
so you may just answer like this
[214]
what's up
[215]
not much not important nothing is special
[220]
so these are some universal phrases
[221]
that you can answer with when
[223]
nothing is happening around you
[224]
but still somebody's asking you
[226]
what's up that is one more trendy
[228]
question people nowadays are asking
[230]
that is what's new or what's going on
[233]
so this one's a general question
[235]
and it's kind of short update somebody
[238]
wants from you it means
[240]
what's new in your life
[242]
in this case talk about some recent news
[245]
that happen in your life
[246]
or some current happening for example
[249]
what's new?
[250]
I have started a new YouTube channel
[252]
what's new?
[253]
I'm just planning for a long weekend
[255]
and again when there is nothing much
[257]
to say or nothing new is happening
[259]
around you simply can say
[261]
not much
[262]
let's make it more interesting now
[264]
you might hear some people asking
[266]
what are you up to?
[268]
or what have you been up to?
[270]
this one is a very friendly and
[272]
endearing question so you only can
[274]
ask this way to your dear friends
[276]
and relatives or you know
[278]
somebody very personally you know
[280]
it's just a more creative way to ask
[282]
people what's going on and
[284]
if somebody ask you
[285]
what are you up to ?
[286]
or what have you been up to?
[288]
they are literally asking you
[289]
what are you doing right now?
[290]
so just tell them whatever you are doing
[292]
like cooking reading or nothing much
[295]
these are some important greetings
[296]
that you need to know to make your
[298]
conversation more interesting
[300]
I recommend you to practice these
[301]
questions and answers and get comfortable
[304]
using them
[305]
if you're getting confused with how to
[306]
learn all this
[307]
there is a tip for you
[308]
if the question is started with how
[311]
you answer them with an adjective
[313]
suppose a person's asking you
[315]
how are you? how's life?
[317]
you would say
[318]
I'm fine, life's good
[320]
on the other hand
[321]
if the questions beginning with what
[323]
you can answer it with an action
[326]
like what's up? just completing my work
[329]
what's up what's going on
[331]
just watching tv
[333]
you see it's a very simple trick
[335]
that will help you to find a quick answer
[337]
while talking to somebody and will
[339]
definitely help you in starting
[340]
a good conversation
