Do you sometimes find it difficult to make small talk in English at work?

Small talk is a great way to start conversations and build connections with colleagues, clients and other professionals.

Try these natural phrases:

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œHowโ€™s your week going?โ€
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œDid you have a good weekend?โ€
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œHowโ€™s the project going?โ€
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œAny plans for the weekend?โ€
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œHave you been anywhere interesting recently?โ€

And remember โ€” you don't need to have a long conversation. Ask a question, listen to the answer, and ask a follow-up question.

Which phrase would you feel most comfortable using? ๐Ÿ˜Š
