Conversation strategies
Being a supportive listener
You can be a supportive listener by using short responses with really and sure to agree with
what someone says.

If the other speaker uses the verb be, repeat the verb in your response:
A This is the most incredible place!
B Yeah, it really is.

If the other speaker uses the simple present, use do or does in your response:
A It feels good to be out of the city.
B It sure does.

If the other speaker uses the present perfect, use have or has in your response:
A Well, it's been a great day.
B It really has.

If the other speaker uses a modal verb (can, should, etc.), repeat the speaker's verb in your
response:
A We should go hiking there sometime.
B We really should.

Using superlatives for emphasis


You can use superlatives to emphasize your opinions or feelings:

This is the most incredible place!

I had the best time.
