A problem that a lot of students have in English is that they use the same basic vocabulary again and again and again. One of those overused words is the word "Friends". Learning more native alternatives can be a lot of fun, it makes you sound more impressive and helps you to make better connections with native speakers. I personally never use the word "friend" in English (I always use one of the alternatives I mention in this lesson, and usually say "mate" instead of "friend" ). So, if you want to understand people like me, learn these 12 synonyms of "friend" and start using them with the native speakers you speak English with. 🔥 ► 🇬🇧 DO YOU WANT TO BE MY STUDENT? 🇬🇧 ◀ ︎ 🔥 [ONLINE COURSES AT http://www.EnglishWithGreg.com] 🗣 🇬🇧 FULL BRITISH ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION PROGRAM » http://www.pronunciationquickfix.com 💬 [DAILY QUICK FIX] JOIN MY MEMBERSHIP » http://daily.englishquickfix.com 🇪🇸🇬🇧 [COURSE] ENGLISH QUICK FIX: HABLA INGLÉS AVANZADO EN 30 DíAS » http://www.englishquickfix.com 💻 [CONVERSATION CLASSES] MY BUSINESS: ONLINE LANGUAGE ACADEMY » http://www.OnlineLanguageAcademy.com ►►► 🎁 MY FREE BOOKS FOR YOU 🙏 ◀ ︎ ◀ ︎ ◀ ︎ 📘 99% of students make these mistakes in English: » http://book.englishquickfix.com/ 📕 17 different ways to use GET in English » http://get.englishquickfix.com/ ► If you liked this lesson on how to stop saying Friends, watch these other videos to avoid overusing more basic English vocabulary: ❌ Stop Saying "HOW ARE YOU?" 10 Expressions to Sound More Native! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74iANEnxxoU&list=PLYCXLjOiLD_DmW70UlnEGsaTBXVIaf8aJ&index=10 ❌ Don't Say "IT'S COLD" | Use Advanced English Expressions ❄️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTfQh2foxzA&list=PLYCXLjOiLD_DmW70UlnEGsaTBXVIaf8aJ&index=4 👋 Stop Saying Say BYE BYE | 25 Other Ways to Say BYE in English https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qXLjzlmT18&list=PLYCXLjOiLD_DmW70UlnEGsaTBXVIaf8aJ&index=6 ❌ Don't Say “NICE” | 39 Advanced Adjectives To Use Instead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDaz0Fg7gyw&list=PLYCXLjOiLD_DmW70UlnEGsaTBXVIaf8aJ&index=8 ❌ Don’t say GIVE ME | Speak English Politely https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5JPSDt13zY&list=PLYCXLjOiLD_DmW70UlnEGsaTBXVIaf8aJ&index=11 ► LESSON NOTES: 0:00 Why STOP Saying "Friends"? 0:58 Buddy 1:19 Bud 1:28 Pal 1:54 Fellow 2:37 The most common word for friend in British English 3:20 Workmate 3:29 Classmate 3:37 Roommate 3:47 Housemate 3:58 Teammate 4:11 Bestie 4:37 Meaning BFF 5:01 Your Turn! ► Thanks, as always, for your LIKES, COMMENTS and SHARES!! 🙏 🔴 Remember to SUBSCRIBE to learn advanced English vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation.
