TRANSCRIPT:

Hi Bob the Canadian here, sometimes there’s something in your future that you’re really really excited about. Maybe you have an upcoming birthday, or maybe you’re going on a trip, and you’re really excited about something that’s going to happen in a few days.

Well in this video I’ll help you learn some English words and phrases to talk about an exciting event that’s going to happen in the future.

Hey, Bob the Canadian here, if this is your first time here don’t forget to click the subscribe button below, and at some point during this video give me a thumbs up if you enjoy the English that you are learning.

So, something exciting is coming up in your future, and you want to be able to talk about it. Well today we’ll look a number of ways to tell people about something exciting that’s going to happen in your future.

The first way to express excitement about something in the future is to say, “I can’t wait.” or “I cannot wait.” or “I can hardly wait.”

All three of these things express excitement about something in the future. So let’s imagine you’re going on a vacation. You could say, “I cannot wait to go on vacation.” You can say, “I can’t wait to go on vacation.” Or you could say, “I can hardly wait to leave on my vacation.”

All three of those would be a way to express the excitement, the happiness that you’re feeling that you’re going to be going away. That you’re going to be going on a vacation.

Another way to express excitement about something in the future is to say, “I’m looking forward to….”

So let’s imagine that you’re going to be having dinner with a good friend. You could say, “I’m looking forward to having dinner with you.” You could say, “I am looking forward to having dinner with you.” Or you could say, “I’m really looking forward to having dinner with you.”

All three of those would be a way to express excitement in positive way, to express excitement, to express happiness about an event that’s coming up in the future.

I’m sure a lot of you were really looking forward to me putting this video on my Youtube channel. Well I hope some of you were.

Another way to express excitement about the future is to just use the word, “excite” I am excited about the start of the new school year.” Or you can say, “I am very excited about the start of the new school year.” Or you could say, “I am extremely excited about the start of the new school year.”
