doing today I am going to be giving you
a 100 words and phrases 100 words and
phrases that are are commonly used by
native speakers so they are quite
Advanced you might not know them they’re
quite new but importantly people do use
them I think sometimes people learn
Advanced vocabulary but nobody actually
talks like that nobody actually says
these words in everyday life but all of
these words people actually use in
everyday life so treat this as a little
bit of a test see how many you already
knew if you knew more than 50 incredible
if YOU KNOW all 100 you’re a fluent
English speaker incredible if you only
know two of these words fantastic that
means you can learn all of these words
and you can expand your vocabulary
fantastic so I’m going to run through
them quite quickly but this live stream
will still be available on YouTube so
you can go back you can fall asleep
listening to this you can May
just try to learn 10 every day just take
it really easy but you will have all of
these 100 words on YouTube which is
really exciting it’s quite windy today
I’m in my living room it’s quite windy
and I think there are children playing
outside so if you can hear that in the
background my apologies but YOU KNOW
it’s life isn’t it who have we got hello
Shivani hello Akai hello Global tourism
and culture is here well there we go
nice to see you here Global tourism and
culture so let’s get started shall we so
if YOU KNOW these 100 words your English

do you like the new setup by the way
guys we’ve got a new mic we’ve got new
camera we’ve we’re really trying to make
this look good for you guys I hope you
like it hi everybody hello hello
Michelle hello JG hello Shredder my
goodness okay so let’s start off with
word number one so we’ve got Thrive put
in the comments if you already knew this
word Thrive is a verb and it’s a really
useful word so Thrive just means you’re
doing really well you’re growing you are
succeeding in what you’re doing so after
practicing every day she began to thrive
in her guitar playing it’s a lovely word
it means you’re doing well so hopefully
if you keep watching smashing English
you will be thriving in your English woo
tell me in the comments if you already
knew that word or better yet with all of
these words see if you can put in the
comments using that word in a sentence
that’s a great way to practice so make
your own sentence put that word in a
sentence and I will tell you if it was
correct or not okay that’s a great way
we can learn next one sustainable this
is a really common word nowadays
everyone wants to be sustainable we all
want to do things that are good for the
environment so sustainable means in a
way that helps the environment it’s an
adjective so recycling is a sustainable
habit because it helps the earth and can
be done done for a long time very useful
in today’s society number three
reassure to tell someone everything is
okay to make them feel better so it’s
kind of this action mom reassured me
that my mistakes were normal and a part
of learning reassure it’s a verb but we
also have the noun reassurance to give
reassurance but this is a super common
one see if you can put it into a
sentence let me know in the comments
have we got any sentences here let’s
have a look you’re doing great guys
you’re doing amazing you’re doing an
English lesson on a Sunday you guys are
so good well done okay next one we have
run through I use this all the time as
an English teacher because it means to
quickly go over something to quickly
talk about something so before the test
let’s run through the important topics
one more time okay let’s just talk about
them really quickly just to make sure we
know them run through really really
useful it’s a phrasal verb so you can
use it in the past tense in the present
whatever you want okay
reconcile
reconcile so it’s not reconcile even
though there’s an O reconcile and it
means to make up after a fight to be
friends again so maybe you’ve had an
argument you hate that person you say
I’m never talking to you again Richard
get out of my face but then you
reconcile and you are friends again and
everything’s good and we’re all happy
reconcile number six pragmatic pragmatic
is a really useful adjective and it is a
combination of practical and sensible
it’s not silly it’s not crazy it’s
really realistic so instead of worrying
about perfection take a pragmatic
approach to solving the problem let’s
think about let’s think about it
sensibly and practically let’s not be
crazy right now okay why not okay go
along with we’ve got another phrasal
verb phrasal verbs I know they’re so
hard to learn but you’ll get there I
promise so agreeing with someone or
doing what they suggest so even though I
wanted Pizza I decided to go along with
my friends and try the new burger place
or if you are lying to somebody although
I’m sure you never lie I’m sure you
don’t but if you are lying to somebody
you might say to your friend who you’re
with hey I’m going to tell this person
that I’m sick just go along with it just
just agree with me just do what I
suggest just go along with it go along
with it can you use it in a sentence any
of these words you’ve seen so far if you
think you can put it in a sentence put
it in the comments and I’ll have a look
okay
resonate with a z sound not an S so it’s
not resonate it’s
resonate resonate is a verb and it’s
something that stays with you or makes
you feel a certain way so the lyrics of
that song really resonate with me they
feel like they’re speaking to my
experiences so it it it stays with you
it makes you it makes you feel emotional
it gives you a certain feeling like wow
resonate is comes from sound so if
you go to a church and you stand in
the middle and you go ah the sound
sounds amazing because the sound
resonates against the walls it makes
vibrations so when a song or a poem
resonates with you it’s like there’s
vibrations in your body you’re like wow
I feel that so deeply
resonate ambiguous something that’s not
clear we don’t know what it is ambiguous
is it do you mean this or do you mean
this the instructions were ambigu
ambiguous the instructions were
ambiguous and I couldn’t figure out what
to do isn’t that the truth by
another adjective so showing if
something is like you show favoritism
and you’re letting your personal
interests affect your decisions so the
news article seemed biased because it
only told one side of the story or if my
daughter is in a competition and I am
the judge of the competition that’s not
fair I’m biased because I will let my
daughter win because she’s my daughter
I’m I’m being biased in that decision so
we’ve had our first 10 words what do we
think have we got any sentences here
that people have done let’s have a look
oh someone put she is thriving that’s
a good one yes she’s thriving let’s run
through our finances today so we’ve gone
back to run through let’s run through
our finances so let’s just have a quick
look at our finances to make sure that
they’re all good what else do we got
oh someone new reassure that’s good well
done everybody you’re doing
great I love it British English is the
best but I am biased that’s what someone
said so someone’s just said British
English is the best but I am biased
maybe that person is British so they
would be biased towards British English
okay let’s do the next 10 you’re doing
so well all of these words you don’t
have to learn all of them right now but
come back to this video try to get all
these words cuz if you can add these to
your vocabulary oh my goodness amazing
okay next one we’ve got another phrasal
verb carry out so this could be literal
if you you have a child who’s crying you
might want to carry them out of the room
that’s the physical one but also it just
means doing or completing a task so
today our main goal is carrying out the
plan we discussed yesterday is doing the
plan we discussed yesterday that’s our
main thing that we’re doing carry out
phrasal verb try to use it in a sentence
everybody brush up on another phrasal
verb I’m giving you a few phrasal verbs
today because they really do help you
sound natural brush up on to review and
refresh your knowledge about something
so before the quiz let’s brush up on the
important formulas we could also say
before the quiz let’s run through the
important formulas we could say that as
well so it’s kind of a similar thing or
you might say oh I’m traveling to Spain
I need to brush up on my Spanish can you
hear that wind it’s very windy outside
oh okay
contradict contradict it’s a verb and
it’s saying or doing the opposite of
what someone else said so it’s confusing
when people contradict themselves by
changing their story so maybe they told
you one thing and then later on they
said a different thing well they are
contradicting themselves they’re going
they’re doing the opposite of what they
said before contradict a verb if
intense okay this is an adjective and it
means very strong or serious so we might
use it to talk about a flavor very
strong flavor we might use it to talk
about a film it was very serious and
crazy we might use it to talk about a
person they’re a bit whoa they’re a bit
too serious so the movie was so intense
I couldn’t look away from the screen did
YOU KNOW that word tell me in the
comments if you already knew that word
tell me any of them if you knew any of
of these words tell me in the comments
praise so there’s a song by who is it is
it a Fat Boy Slim and it goes we’ve been
a long long way
together through the good times and the
bed I’m just having a sing song now give
me a minute we have to celebrate you
baby I have to praise you like I should
listen to that song Praise You Fat Boy
Slim amazing so praise is just saying
something nice about someone’s work or
effort so the teacher gave praise to the
students for their outstanding project
so praise could be a verb but also in
this sentence it’s been used as an ad as
a noun to give praise as a noun but you
can use it as a verb as well I will
praise you I will tell you that you did
something good well done everybody does
anybody know that song I have to praise
you like I should great monitor okay
monitor is a verb and it means keep
watching something making sure that
things don’t change making sure that
things stay how you want them to monitor
okay parents often monitor their kids
online activities to ensure they stay
safe so parents are just making sure
they know what’s going on they’re just
monitoring it because we don’t want to
go crazy
diplomatic lovely another adjective
diplomatic is well think of a diplomat
as someone who is a diplomat then job is
to YOU KNOW between two parties
making sure that both sides are heard
trying to settle arguments so if you are
diplomatic you are making sure that
everyone feels that they have been
listen to and you are listening to both
sides so during the argument she try to
be diplomatic and find a compromise so
look you want to eat pizza you want to
eat chicken
okay I’m going to be diplomatic how
about we go for Italian no that wouldn’t
work cuz he wants Pizza how about we go
to a sushi restaurant so neither of
you get what you want so we are doing
something diplomatic another useful one
okay let’s do three more and then I’ll
have a look at your comments so tell me
keep writing those sentences with these
words in engaging a lovely adjective so
if something is engaging it’s
interesting and it’s capturing your
attention the novel was so engaging I
finished it in one sitting this live
stream is so engaging I just can’t stop
watching because Laura is just such a
good
teacher what can I say pipe down
everybody pipe down be quiet please pipe
down it’s a bit rude this one don’t say
it to your boss it’s quite informal say
it to people who are lower than you
maybe your children or students just
stop talking can you please pipe down
I’m trying to concentrate on my homework
pipe down everybody and then we have
browse you’ll know this from the
internet so when people are browsing the
internet you’re just looking at things
casually without a specific goal so I
like to browse through the bookstore
checking out the different books or
when you go into a shop and someone is
at the door and they say hello can I
help you today and you say no thanks
just browsing I’m just just browsing I’m
just looking I don’t need anything in
particular
let’s look at some comments what do we
got okay oo someone’s oh someone put
the last book I read was so engaging
great fabulous it was so engaging you
kept reading it someone said
abnormally normal says I’ve got to brush
up on my speaking skills so I can argue
with anyone who’s against me great love
that ala said my English is a little
bit Rusty during these days I have to
brush up on my knowledge well done
amazing you did so well someone here
from China amazing you guys are doing
so well well done look at this we’ve
just done 20 new words and phrases you
can go back and watch these as many
times as you want you’re doing a great
job well done o oh okay this is an
interesting question I’ll just answer
this and then we’ll move on so
abnormally normal says Hagrid in Harry
Potter once said dry up to the Muggles I
wonder if it means the same as pipe down
so I’m I don’t think so so dry up is
about I’m going to come here I’m
going to come back here so dry up is
to do with literally something being dry
so if I poured water on my sleeve I
would have to wait for it to dry up for
for things to dry up or it could be if
something becomes less successful so you
could say well I used to sell a lot of
shoes at my shoe store but sales have
dried up it’s it’s got dry it’s not as
moist anymore it’s not as good
anymore so it’s not quite the same as
pipe down but it’s a great question we
we need to ask these questions so that
we can get better at our English well
done well done well done okay let’s go
back here we go where are we okay
۲۱ step St aside please step aside
please move out of the way to let
someone pass nice and easy so please
step aside and let the others through
just step to that side but also you can
use it like in terms of changing
power so if someone has a job and they
are told to step aside it’s like we are
make we are putting someone else in your
job step aside
please okay got a verb slate so if you
slate something you strongly criticize
or disapprove of it so critics often
slate movies that don’t meet their
expectations did YOU KNOW that word
already can you put it in a new sentence
keep giving me those sentences baby cuz
I like looking at them I’m just going to
have a drink from my Tommy Shelby
glass look at that if you like peeky
blinders then great
I’m guessing a lot of people who
watch these videos like pey blinders
because that was our first first big
video was a PQ linders one so there you
go okay next one 23 ring I love this
word nobody knows this word but it’s
useful because you might need it right
so I’m going to show you ring before I
have I got anything to ring no so
ring is
this like that so let’s say you’ve got a
wet cloth and
you like that that that thing that thing
it’s a useful action but nobody knows
the word for it so it’s that like that
so after washing don’t forget to ring
out out the wet clothes before hanging
them ring out your hair if you’ve got
wet hair great okay
facilitate not facilitate facilitate and
it’s a verb and it means make things
easier or help them happen so the new
software will facilitate communication
within the team so you you also hear
this in education sometimes you are a
teacher but sometimes you are a
facilitator noun so a teacher is what
I’m doing now teaching you teaching you
teaching you if I was more of a
facilitator I might give you some
tools and equipment and then sit back
and let you do it I’m just helping you
I’m making it easier so yeah
facilitate facilitate use it in a
sentence everybody okay inspect look
closely to check the condition of
something so if someone is inspecting
something they’re really making sure
that it’s top quality before buying a
used phone it’s a essential to inspect
it for any damages this is obviously a
verb but we have a noun inspection
there’s going to be an inspection as
well fabulous guys write five more
and then I’m going to look at your
sentences so make sure you’re writing
down your sentences or telling me if you
knew these words anything you want
specify specify so clearly state or
Define something can you please specify
the deadline for the project if YOU KNOW
the word specific which is an adjective
that’s the same idea so I want to know
exactly I don’t just want to know oh the
deadline is June no can you specify
please is it June the 1st is it June the
۱۵th specify specific I want to know
exactly please thank you very much
swerve that’s the best way I can do it
D it’s that thing YOU KNOW if you see a
animal in the road and you go you swerve
you’ve suddenly changed Direction but
also you can swerve in your ideas
maybe you think someone thinks yeah I
agree
with I don’t know I agree with hunting I
agree with hunting woo woooo and then
suddenly they swerve and they suddenly
disagree with hunting their opinion
swerves like that 28 Co cooperate I
always see that word and it looks like
cerate doesn’t it coperate but it’s not
cooperate so you’ve got to put an
invisible W in there you have to say
cooperate say it with me
cooperate one more time say it together
you ready
cooperate lovely work together with
others if you are in a job interview you
probably need to say this word I
really I’m really good at cooperating
with my with my teammates I’m really
good at cooperating with others
cooperate verb okay address address not

bit like specify very similar to specify

fabulous okay number 53 drop off so drop
off is when let’s say if you’re a parent
and your child says I want to go to the
cinema with my friends you take them and

in the cinema bye and then later on you
pick them up so drop off is when you
take someone to a place and you leave
them there head not this head means to
go in a particular direction native
speakers really commonly will use head
instead of go so after school we can
head to the park for some fret fresh air
is a lot more common than after school
we can go to the park it’s so much more
common to say head to the park so
sometimes use head instead of go next
time next up we have bring up which has
two definitions bring up can mean to
raise a child so I am bringing up my
daughter to be lovely person or it
means to mention something in
conversation so at dinner please don’t
bring up politics don’t mention it

that one well done put it in a sentence
in the chat prom prom minent prominent
standing out and easily seen it’s big
it’s obvious it’s noticeable it’s
prominent The prominent building in the
city center is a famous landmark it’s

famous you’re very big you’re very

people really use the word eclectic
though yeah like you will hear it you
know you don’t want to be limited to
words and I use the word eclectic you’ll
hear the word eclectic on the radio
you’ll hear it if you want to buy maybe
like a book or a range of books you
know it comes it comes up a lot and you
don’t want to get confused by that
so yes people do really use it every
single day in every sentence no but you
need but everyone knows what it means so
you need to know it otherwise your
English won’t be as good as you want it
to be let’s do one more question what
else have people
said
hello from India so many I think our
top viewers are from India I think but
obviously India’s there’s a lot of
people there I understand but great
thanks thanks for watching everybody
okay here we go let’s look at some more
we’ve got 61 undermine undermine so if
you undermine something verb you lessen
the effectiveness power or the ability
of someone or something so so for
example a teacher might say to you
don’t undermine me like YOU KNOW you
whatever you you can’t undermine me I
have more power over you or cuz
you’re trying to lessen the power of the
teacher But the teacher should have the
power constant criticism can undermine a
person’s confidence over time 62
stimulate blah blah blah blah blah
stimulate so if you go to the shop you
might see some shampoo that stimulates
the hair follicles and it encourages
growth or activity so if you are a bold
man like my lovely beautiful fiance he’s
a bold man there might be some shampoo
for him and it says Hey stimulate the
hair growth it’ll make hair grow but
you can use it for thing like playing
educational games can stimulate a
child’s development it can make them
their their brains grow okay 63 look
into investigate or examine something so
the detective will look into the
mysterious disappearance of the necklace
he’ll look into that he’ll investigate

look into that oh I love this word I
love this word how do you think we say

it’s make something more attractive or
stylish stylish let’s Z up the living
room by adding some colorful cushions so

speculate verb make guesses or
predictions without enough information
so the newspapers love to speculate
about who’s marrying who who’s pregnant
they don’t have this information they’re
just speculating they’re making guesses
YOU KNOW people like to speculate who
will win the game but we’ll find out
soon enough 66 all of my students
struggle with this word they never know
this word so you can have sweet food
like chocolate and ice cream but you can
have Savory food like salty and spicy
and all of that so anything that’s not
sweet it’s Savory try to learn that
sweet and savory so what do you prefer
tell me in the comments do you prefer
sweet food or savory food I prefer
Savory food blunt if you are blunt which
is an adjective if you are blunt you are
direct and honest even if it might be
rude or harsh so she appreciated the
blunt feedback it helped her improve her
performance so people in some countries
are a bit more blunt than other
countries so I know in the UK we are
very polite overly polite so we are not
very blunt but other countries might be
a bit more direct and blunt when they
tell people things okay
reinforce
reinforce strengthen or support
something positive feedback can
reinforce good behavior and encourage
others it makes it stronger it makes the
good behavior stronger YOU KNOW or
you can reinforce a table if you have a
table and you reinforce the table you
make the table stronger so it can hold
more weight 69 diligent adjective

diligent student always completes
assignments on time and with care okay
number 70 here we go accomplish
successfully complete or achieve
something after this live stream you
will have
accomplished so much you will have
accomplished a 100 words in your head
they might not be in your head straight
away but you’ve still accomplished
something great how are we saying have
we got any new sentences have you put
them into any sentences for me what do
we think yeah there’s a poll in the chat
vote in the poll in the chat what do we
think what’s best sweet or savory what
do we think I think

says that sound is like number two in
Arabic so I don’t know how to speak
Arabic but apparently it sounds like
number two that z sound what else
have we got
oh in electrotherapy
we use electrical stimulation so that’s
back to that word stimulate so the
electricity stimulates whatever well

doing a great job we’re going to power
through the next 10 so this is going to
be a quick 10 are you ready for this so

and choose one of these words and write
it in a sentence in the chat really try
to do it this is how you remember these
words here we go quick 10 gradual if
something is gradual adjective it
happens slowly over time the progress is
gradual but consistent so it’s gradual
do do do do do it doesn’t happen like
whoosh it’s gradual happening slowly

suggest something his smile indicated

the surprise if you indicate something
you’re showing it or suggesting it okay
۷۳ set aside different to step aside
which we had earlier set aside is to
reserve or save it for later use so
remember to set aside some money from
your allowance for unexpected expenses
so don’t just keep all of your money set
some aside keep keep it in a in a
savings account in case you need to
spend it on something else it’s very
windy outside isn’t it okay
acclimatize a
climatize verb acclimatize become used
to new surroundings adjust think about
the word climate YOU KNOW the the things

new comp I need some time to feel
relaxed in this company mindless
adjective acting with no thought or
concern for the consequences mindless
violence is violence well personally I
think all violence is like this but some
violence that just had no thought

no reason if you are driving mindlessly
you are just d d you don’t you’re not
thinking of the consequences of what
could happen
۷۶ Vibe really useful word people are
using this more and more it just means
the mood of a place or a person so Vibe
is a noun by the way I love the vibe in
that restaurant she she was giving me
really good vibes that girl I like her
Vibes I like the the mood that she gives
off it’s like just another word for mood
really okay 77 oh great one vice versa
people use this all the time in native
speakers but nobody know knows what it
is so it we use it to say that what you
have just said is also true in the
opposite order so I don’t like her and
vice versa so what I’m saying there is I
don’t like her and she doesn’t like me
so the same thing is true either way
okay I don’t like her and vice versa
okay I will help you and vice versa so I
will help you and you will help me so
instead of repeating eating yourself you
say vice versa okay really useful one if
you are only going to learn one thing
from this whole video I want it to be
that one vice versa really useful okay
۷۸ to break even a really useful phrasal
verb so breaking even is where your
profit is equal to the cost you are not
making money you are not losing money
you are completely equal so I buy a
house for £۳۰۰,۰۰۰ if I sell the house
for £۳۰۰ £۱۰۰,۰۰۰ I’ll break even I’m
not making money I’m not losing money
breaking even really really useful that
one okay adapt adapt become adjusted to
new conditions it’s a bit like a
climatize so if you want to be a good
salesperson you need have to learn to
adapt you have to be different in all
these different situations I’m going to
change in this situation I’m going to
change in that situation adapt okay

as a real as a real test really try
every word you hear try to think even if

it into a new sentence in your head

stays in there and then watch this live
stream again just to look at those words
again and that’s the best way to do it
so here we go next 20 we’ve got this
everybody okay what do we
got
overrule overruled you might hear a
judge say that in court overruled to
decide against a decision that’s already
been made so if a judge overrules a
decision they’re saying I don’t care
what the decision was overrule I’m
changing it so I know we’re supposed to
work on Christmas Eve but I’m overruling
that I’m I’m changing that decision
because I’m the boss and I don’t want to
work on Christmas Eve okay 82 a fan noun

sabotage sabotage great word oh that
might be one of my favorite words ever
sabotage oh love that word okay it’s a
verb and it means to deliberately ruin
something to give yourself the advantage

great word sabotage
I love that word 87 influence you’ll

۱۰ here we go so we’ve got 91 to reach
out so physically we can reach out oh
I’m going to reach out but also we say
it to try when we try to communicate
with someone so Reach Out is a phrasal
verb my ex-boyfriend reached out he sent
me a message G I told him to stop
messaging me so so it’s just to try to
to communicate with somebody usually
through calling or texting bant this is
a noun we love it in the UK we use this
all the time playful and light teasing
so you’re kind of insulting someone but
only in a playful way you’re not really

banter okay I feel to sniff around think
of a dog think of a sniffer

promotion 94 bitty this is like quite
common in the UK I don’t know if it’s
common in like the states but definitely
in the UK so something is bitty it’s

flow more it feels too random bit here
bit here bit here I need to make it flow
more 95 to grasp which means to

momentum okay so there is a scientific
definition of momentum but I’m not a
scientist and unless you’re a scientist
you probably don’t care but
informally if something has momentum
it’s a noun if something has momentum
it’s it’s happening with more speed and
