"want some?" Is a completely legitimate slang as opposed to the formal full sentence. It sounds more natural/native

[amandasletter]

She's that one girl thats always like "you forgot our homework"

[abubakr]

"I had my test result today, I did good"
"You did well"
"Thank you"
"Wait wha-"

As many others have pointed out, these tips don't necessarily make you sound more like a native speaker. Spoken language and written language are very different. Maybe if you were writing a paper for school or writing an email, then these tips would be handy, but speech-wise, it's not entirely correct. Like all languages, there's slang. Sometimes we use incomplete sentences when speaking and that's okay.

I do see others talking about how these don’t make you sound like a native, but the description says to MAKE these mistakes to sound native, and the “correct way” in the video is showing how it would be said formally. The wrong way in the video is what she is saying sounds native

[enerjonsuperrr]

that one kid in class who always correct your words.

[ruthannemarie]

Actually as a native speaker… we commonly remove the personal subject (I) to make the sentence more casual.
So saying “thought we could go to the beach today” Or “want some?” Is totally normal.

Also as long as you put “here is” together as “here’s” then saying “here’s some ____ for you” is totally normal

[teaztea]

Everyone here is saying that you should actually use the wrong ones - but thats what she also said, to MAKE these mistakes to sound like a native

Confidence is the key to learning any language.

It seems like most people have misunderstood the video. The caption reads "make these mistakes to sound like a native speaker".

[lavenderDolfin]

I was so confused until i re-read the title and my whole world turns downside up

[kashinimeyo]

Linguist here and native speaker— all of the ❌ sentences actually sound more native than the “correct” versions. Yes they are grammatically correct and should be used when writing, but speaking English and writing English are two different things

[magnoliablossom]

Tbh native speakers make those grammar mistakes. She's technically right in all areas, but no one's going to notice unless you're writing and speaking at an academic/formal level

[novaace]

Wouldn’t “friends like” be correct rather than “friends likes” because since “friends” is plural you conjugated it to the 3rd person plural “like” rather than 3rd person singular “likes”?

[rosegoldsyoonfoo]

I'm native to America and I just want to say, there's no such thing as sounding like a native person, everyone's different and I always say the things that are supposed to be "Wrong"

[failthesun]

guys the TITLE OF THE VIDEO says to MAKE THOSE MISTAKES TO SOUND LIKE A NATIVE SPEAKER!

[crafty]

If you want to sound a bit formal then say thos but most people I know never talk formal outside of work so say which everone you prefer, this isn't a rule you have to follow

[DREWDOWN]

To be honest, sounding “native” is different across all of the United States.

[lexibroadbent]

Not only are these corrections unnecessary, they’re wrong 💀

[willianrom]

In "Thought we could go to the beach today", in Brazilian Portuguese it's normal to have "hidden pronoun" in formal ou informal conversations, but in English is just in informal conversation.
