Hi! The sitcom "Friends" is my favorite - it's both funny and enlightening. So if you haven't seen it, you might consider doing it. But in this article we are going to review the popular phrases that you can use in your daily life.
How you doing?
The most common phrase by Joey. He used it every time he tried to pick up a girl and start a conversation with her. But in real life, it can be used as a simple question when we want to ask "how are you?". But note that it can be used only in informal conversation.
Joey doesn't share food!
One more famous phrase by Joey Tribbiani. No matter how much Joey liked girls, he never shared food with them, nor with anybody else. You can use this phrase if you want to say that you don't share something. But it's better not to be greedy.
We were on a break
This is also one of the most famous phrases. If you watched the sitcom, you remember that Rachel and Ross took a sort of break for a night and Ross accidentally cheated (when he was drunk). So after that, it was a huuuuge fight whether Rachel should forgive Ross because they were on a break or not.
You can say this phrase if you take some time off in your relationship with someone.
Oh! My! God!
This is a phrase that one of Chandler's girlfriends said every time she saw Chandler. And she did in a way nobody could - extremely annoyingly.
You can use this phrase when you are surprised to see someone or when you are just surprised.
I wish I could but I don't want to
The awesome phrase that we can borrow from Phoebe. She said it when Ross asked help to move furniture but she didn't want it. It was an honest excuse not to help him.
You can use it when you want to say "no" to somebody, but you are not so afraid to hurt their feelings. Maybe to close friends who would understand the joke.
That is brand new information!
This phrase can be used to express your genuine surprise when someone tells you some secret or something very interesting. Or on the contrary, when you knew the information but you wanna seem surprised.
Use these phrases because they are awesome. "Friends" lovers will appreciate it and will laugh. I hope you find this article interesting. Don't forget to like it and to ask any questions in the comment.
