<\/p>\n<p>Of course, listen to the episode for the whole formula and some helpful background, but you can see how to apply this within this episode.<\/p>\n<p>You have to basically decide if you need or want to use the whole thing, because sometimes you can just use one of these words and it works out perfectly!<\/p>\n<p>Go through everything so that you can understand the similarities and differences, but it comes down to showing a greater emphasis for something.<\/p>\n<p>There are times when you want to express that or when you have bigger opinions on things.<\/p>\n<p>There may be deeper discussions that warrant this sort of exclamation.<\/p>\n<p>There may be times when it\u2019s centered on more casual things, like if you ask somebody if they can do something for you.<\/p>\n<p>So you can start to understand when you may want that deeper expression, and now it\u2019s time to see how this can all work.<\/p>\n<p>We will take a look at the words or phrases that you may use, and how you could use each one in conversation.<\/p>\n<p>This will help you to see how you can use it and make this a part of your conversations.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:14px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3><strong>Roleplays For Different Situations<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>There are different times when you may want to use this.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re going to look at each word or phrase, and then how it would play out in a roleplay for each.<\/p>\n<p>This can help you to understand how it would work, and then you can begin using this in your conversations.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Absolutely<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lindsay: \u201cDo citizens have an obligation to protect the environment?\u201d<br \/>Michelle: \u201cAbsolutely!

I don\u2019t normally think people should be rude to their parents, but what her mother did was unforgivable, so I say she had a right. Do you agree?\u201d<br \/>Lindsay: \u201cAbsolutely. That\u2019s what I was going to say.\u201d<br \/>Michelle: \u201cOk next question. \u201cDo you think Ross and Jill will have a lasting relationship?\u201d<br \/>Lindsay: \u201cOh, totally.
