How to Make Excuses for Being Late in English! 🏃⏰🚌

In this English lesson I'll help you learn the English phrases you would use to give an excuse for being late for work or school. We're all late at some point in our lives. Sometimes it is something within our control, and sometimes it's something outside of our control.

Either way, as an English learner, it's a good idea to learn how to give an excuse and reason for being late. In this lesson I'll talk about the 10 most common reasons for being late, and what you would say if you were in that situation.

I hope you enjoy this English class about being late. Have a great day!

⌛ Remember: Always watch the video three times. Twice today with English subtitles on, and once tomorrow with the English subtitles off. This will reinforce the English you have learned!

Sorry, I'm late. This video was posted 5 days ago, but I watched it just now. YouTube's algorithm didn't bring it to my attention until today. Honestly! 😞

[tammytsang]

Bob, thank you for this video. Yesterday my husband was late to work because a passenger passed out on the subway train, and the service was delayed for thirty minutes. 😊🎉

[KTEBR]

Thank you for that lesson. One of my problem in learning that language is the fact that i'm so bad at talking lol. But the rest i'm pretty good i think
