🌟LME NAVI Meetup Recap -- Interjections Gone Wild!

Big thanks to everyone who joined today!

Imagine if Dictation, EVC, AWS, LTA, and live classes were only interjections? And PERF students practiced them with full dramatic expression?!

@Shane Peterson

, how about an April Fools' assignment like that?

🙌 Special shoutouts:

@Serge Gray

, you're a treasure trove of useful English expressions -- thanks for sharing!

@Alex Understated

, you're our foundation. Knowing you're with us gives us all confidence. Your presence means a lot!

@Evelyne Vincent

, French interjections are so expressive! I feel like if I master them, I could survive in France without speaking a word of French :)

@Yulong Deng

@Moxa Xie

, Chinese interjections are such a delicate art. Looks like I can't rely only on them to get around in China.

@Fulya Acun

, I think I was right -- Turkish interjections are just as melodic as the Turkish language itself. Güzel!

@Huicong Zhang

, you were great at guessing interjections! Which one did you find the funniest? Regarding your question about phonetic symbols, I'm pretty sure Coach

@Shane Peterson

would say: Forget the chart! Train your ears! Just listen and repeat -- if you can say it, you can hear it!

@Coral Lee

, what a surprise to meet someone from the city where the Terracotta Army was discovered! Share more on SKOOL and join us again. Speaking English online is fun!

@Soooda Feng

, your dinner must have been insanely delicious to steal you away from the meetup :) But seriously, it was great to see you, even for a moment -- thanks for stopping by!

And finally,

@Serge Gray

posed a great question: Do we really need to know how interjections are spelled? 🤔

Well, while we don't have to memorize their spelling, connecting the sound, the written form, and facial expressions helps build a stronger emotional connection to the language. And when the moment comes, your brain will know exactly what to say. 💡

As promised, here's the interjections cheat sheet -- but honestly, this list could go on forever.

See you next time! ❤️
