About this activity

This short game helps international students practise choosing appropriate English expressions in everyday UK study-life situations.

You will read different situations and choose the expression that sounds most natural, polite, and suitable for the context. Pay attention to who you are speaking to, why you are speaking, and how formal the situation is.

Remember: the best answer is not always the longest or most formal sentence.
