Stop sounding too formal in everyday English 👇 🚫 Textbook English: “I am very sorry for being late.” ✅ Real English: “Sorry I’m late!” / “My bad, traffic was crazy!” We rarely say the full sentence in daily life — natives shorten everything when speaking naturally. 💡 Tip: Try replacing long, perfect grammar with short, emotional phrases. It sounds more real. 💬 Example: “I do not know.” → “I dunno.” “I am going to go.” → “I’m gonna go.” “I cannot believe it!” → “Can’t believe it!” 👉 Which one do you use most often — ‘gonna’, ‘wanna’, or ‘gotta’?

It depends on whom you are talking to. It’s never wrong to be polite and your first sentence doesn’t seem “very” formal to me.

Hi Arslan, I am a native English speaker in Australia. I understand what you are saying here, but I don't think it's a good idea to tell people learning English about "gonna, dunno, gotta". In my opinion that is very lazy English, commonly used in the USA but, for example, I would never walk into a job interview and say "My bad, traffic was crazy". And I definitely would never use any of those words in written English. "I'm going" is better than "I'm gonna go"; "I don't know" is just as fast as "I dunno"; and "I need to go" is just as fast as "I gotta go". Sorry, it's just my opinion, but I think these words might confuse people learning English. cheers, David :-)
