【英文Speaking】Native speakers常用的linking words

不論考哪一個英文Speaking test，流暢度都非常重要，千萬不要經常「Er…」。如果一時未想到講什麼內容，也可利用以下這些native speakers也喜歡用的百搭linking words來buy time：

．Well, / Let me see,/ You know,

．Listen, /Look,

．Actually, / In fact,/ As a metter of fact,

．To be honest,/ Frankly speaking,

．Right, / Of course,

．I think/ I guess/ I suppose/ I reckon/ I would say/ I bet

．I’m not exactly sure … but I guess …

．What I mean is/ What I want to say is

．Firstly,/ Moreover,/ Also,/ Besides, /Last but not least, …

實例：

．Well, actually, I guess the main reason is that…

．Let me see, I suppose the best way to deal with the problem is…

．Franky speaking, I’m not exactly sure about … but I guess …

上一篇提到，IELTS Speaking的fluency & coherence好重要，佔25%分數。除了可以多用以上linking words，另一個方法就是準備一些百搭的「罐頭答案」。
