    968 - Talking About Obligation in English - Have To, Must, Need To, and Be Supposed To
    2026/01/13
    Do you ever feel like English has too many ways to say the same thing? Maybe you’ve wondered why English has have to, must, need to, and be supposed to, when they all seem to mean something like “I should do this.” Like, “I have to work late.” “I must finish this.” “I need to call her.” “I’m supposed to send the email.”

    Today, we’ll look at four very common ways to talk about obligation, rules, and expectations - and you’ll hear how each one sounds a little different, even though they’re all connected to “things we should do.”

    967 - OR Sounds like ER - Speak Naturally in a Minute
    2026/01/12
    Hey there! It’s Michael here - and welcome back to Speak Naturally in a Minute from Happy English. I’m here every week with a quick one-point lesson to help you improve your pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation. And if you want to watch this lesson, just look for Happy English Podcast on YouTube.

    One of the biggest pronunciation secrets in American English is how we reduce the sound “or.”
    In everyday conversation, “or” often becomes a quick, relaxed “er.”
    • Do you want tea er coffee
    • Should we meet today er tomorrow?
    • Is your answer, yes er no?

    This small reduction keeps the rhythm smooth and relaxed.

    Hey, thanks for listening! And remember to follow and subscribe so you won’t miss the next Happy English Podcast and next week’s Speak Naturally in a Minute. Until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.

    966 - When It Comes To - English Tips in a Minute | Happy English
    2026/01/10
    Hey there! It’s Michael here - and welcome back to English Tips in a Minute from Happy English. I’m here every Saturday with a short, simple tip to help you speak English more naturally and confidently. And if you want to watch this lesson, just look for Happy English Podcast on YouTube.

    Today, let’s look at a very useful conversational phrase - “when it comes to…”
    We use when it comes to followed by a sentence, to mean regarding or about. When it comes to
    is a great way to introduce a topic or give your opinion.
    • Like, “When it comes to cooking, my sister is amazing.”
    • Or “When it comes to playing sports, well, it’s not my cup of tea.”
    • And you know what, when it comes to learning English, I’m glad you found me here!

    It’s simple, natural, and you’ll hear it all the time - at work, in casual conversations, evenin TV shows and movies. So remember, the next time you want to give your opinion about a topic, try using “when it comes to…” It’s one of the most natural ways to start that sentence.

    Lemme know in the comments how it goes, and remember to follow or subscribe so you don’t miss the next Happy English Podcast and next Saturday’s English Tips in a Minute. Hey, thanks for listening - and until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.
