🔥 DO YOU ONLY USE “LIKE / DISLIKE” IN IELTS SPEAKING?

Minimal English will help you express yourself with more variety and the right nuances!

Many learners, when talking about likes & dislikes, keep repeating only two phrases:

❌ I like…

❌ I dislike…

➡️ This leads to repetition, limited expression of nuances, and examiners won’t rate your Lexical Resource highly!

✨ Minimal English would like to share a minimalist approach – learn little but use a lot:

🌋 STRONG LEVEL

😤 detest

🔥 can’t stand (cannot tolerate at all)

😠 can’t bear (cannot tolerate at all)

💢 hate

🌙 MODERATE LEVEL

😕 find sth unpleasant

☹️ dislike

😣 not keen on

🍃 MILD LEVEL

✋ prefer not to

😕 can’t be bothered (not exactly “hate” - more like feeling indifferent or not interested)

✨ LEARN SIMPLY – USE EFFECTIVELY

Just a few natural, well-chosen expressions can level up your Speaking answers in Parts 1–2–3.

Wishing you successful practice!
