There are more typical(典型的)expressions that you may not know. Here are Mr Bean's examples.
Are you interested in it? Do you want to learn? You can learn British English well if you put much effort into it. We have some native British English teachers with much experience to help you.
| “cheers” or “thanks” | British people use “Cheers” much more often than“Thanks”. “Cheers” is often used by them in daily informal conversations for small favours , such as opening doors for others, lending somebody a pen, showing strangers ways,… |
Present Perfect Tense orSimple Past Tense | It’s more common to hear the British say “Have you done yourwork?” than “Did you do your work?” They prefer present tense to simple past tense. |
