Using Spoken Discourse Markers for IELTS Speaking

Discourse markers, such as "well," "so," "you know," and "I mean," are common in everyday speech. These words and phrases help guide conversations, signal a change in thought, or give the speaker time to think. For IELTS Speaking, using discourse markers effectively can enhance your fluency and coherence, making your responses more natural and organized.

Here are some key ways to use spoken discourse markers during the IELTS Speaking exam:

Starting Your Response: Using markers like "well" or "actually" can give you a moment to collect your thoughts before answering a question. For example, if asked about your favorite hobby, you could begin with, "Well, I really enjoy painting because it's relaxing."

Organizing Ideas: Words such as "firstly," "secondly," and "finally" can help structure your response when explaining something in detail. This makes it easier for the examiner to follow your ideas.

Clarifying and Rephrasing: Discourse markers like "I mean" or "in other words" are useful for clarifying points or rephrasing if you feel your initial response wasn’t clear enough. For instance, "In other words, I think traveling teaches us valuable life skills."

Filling Pauses: Using phrases like "you know" or "let me think" can fill pauses naturally, preventing awkward silences during your speaking test.

However, it's essential not to overuse discourse markers, as it can make your speech sound unnatural. Practice using them in moderation to sound fluent and confident in your responses.

Esta es la segunda parte del episodio 47 que puedes escuchar aquí. En él comento las expresiones con dar que no pude comentar en el primero. Las expresiones con dar me parecen muy curiosas, y como la mayoría de las expresiones, necesitamos conocerlas, porque la traducción palabra por palabra, como en la mayoría de las veces con las expresiones, no funciona.

Espero que disfrutes este episodio, y cuando lo hayas escuchado dime si conoces otras expresiones que usan el verbo dar, porque, aunque he hablado de muchas, hay muchas más.
¡No te olvides de seguirme en Instagram (te lo dejo un poco más abajo) y decirme que piensas del episodio!
