Daily English Upgrade #028: Mini-Conversation — Fixing misunderstandings (“Sorry, I meant…”)

Mohamed Helmy

Misunderstandings happen. These phrases keep you calm and clear.

Fix it smoothly:

  • Sorry, I meant…
  • Let me rephrase that.
  • What I’m trying to say is…
  • To be clear, …

Mini practice (20 seconds):
Rewrite this naturally:
“I said Friday… but I actually meant Monday.”

It’s much easier to make this natural when you practice it in real conversation. If you’d like, we can work on it together in a 25-minute lesson (supportive corrections, no pressure).
