WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:

• Differences between say/tell/speak/talk
• Common expressions
• Idioms with say, tell, speak or talk
• Practice exercises
 

Say, tell, speak or talk – what’s the difference?

Say, tell, speak and talk are four very similar words that can be difficult to use correctly in English! Mistakes are common when there are no exact equivalents in your native language, or when rules on usage differ. Let’s look at the differences between say, tell, speak and talk by explaining how each word is used separately.

How to use SAY

I say – He/She/It says – We/They say
I will say – I am saying – I said – I have said

When we use ‘say’, we do not use an object (e.g. me/them/you) immediately after the verb. The verb ‘say’ is used when we quote people directly and also when we give instructions. For example:

• ‘Amelia said she would be back soon.’
• ‘The weatherman said it would rain today.’
• ‘I won’t say this again!  – Will you please get ready for school now?’

Say can also be used to express an opinion or thought, as in: ‘I say we should give each person twenty tickets each to sell.’

How to use TELL

I tell – She/He/It tells – They/We tell
I will tell – I am telling – I told – I have told

When we use ‘tell’, we also include the object (e.g. you/her/us) immediately after the verb. The verb ‘tell’ is used when we say something to someone, and is commonly used when giving an order or instruction. For example:

• ‘I told my son to brush his teeth.’
• ‘The teacher told the class to do their homework.’
• ‘You forgot to tell me to bring my swimming costume!’

Sometimes ‘say’ and ‘tell’ can be used interchangeably to express the same meaning when information is being passed from one person to another.  In this case, the construction would be: ‘tell’ + object or ‘say’ + ‘to’ + object. For example:

• ‘Laura told me that she would be late for work.’
• ‘Laura said to me that she would be late for work.’

Learners of English often make mistakes like ‘He said me…’ or ‘She said me that…’. This is incorrect. Remember to include ‘to’ between ‘said’ and the object! Just as you would ‘send a letter TO someone’, you would also ‘say something TO someone’. The preposition ‘to’ shows the direction in which the information is going.

How to use SPEAK

I speak – She/He/It speaks – They/We speak
I will speak – I am speaking – I spoke – I have spoken

We use the verb ‘speak’ (instead of ‘talk’) when we are in a more formal situation and wish to emphasise that something is important. When ‘speak’ is used as a noun (speech) it also takes on a more formal tone that when we use ‘talk’ – i.e. ‘Give a speech’ is more formal than ‘give a talk’. For example:

• ‘We need to speak about your attendance this term!’ (stricter than ‘talk about’)
• ‘John will be speaking at an international conference next month.’ (more prestigious than ‘give a talk on…’)

We can also use ‘speak’ to describe verbal fluency or knowledge of languages, as in: ‘He speaks three languages fluently – German, French and Spanish.’. In this context, ‘speak’ simply means that the person knows the languages. It doesn’t only refer to spoken ability.

How to use TALK

I talk – She/He/It talks – They/We talk
I will talk – I am talking – I talked – I have talked

We use the verb ‘talk’ when we are in a more relaxed setting or when we are among friends in a conversational situation. You can think of ‘talk’ as a slightly more formal word for ‘chat’. For example:

• ‘Sorry, who were you talking to before I interrupted?’
• ‘I was talking with my mum the other day and we decided that…’
• ‘I love chatting with my mates (friends) over a cuppa (cup of tea)!’ (very informal)

Often ‘speak’ and ‘talk’ can be used interchangeably to give the same meaning and there is no need to change the grammar of the sentence. For example:

• ‘I will speak/talk with you about this more on Monday.’
• ‘We can speak/talk about the new project next week.’

Say	Tell	Speak	Talk
To speak about something , often reporting on what has been said.	To deliver information to someone.	To exchange information about something. (formal)	To exchange information about something. (informal)
We do not include an object e.g. Rosie said she was free this afternoon.	We include an object e.g. Rosie told me she was free this afternoon.	Can be used to cover languages. E.g Georgie speaks three language fluently.	Cannot be used to cover languages. E.g. Georgie talks three languages fluently.

E.g. I said I wasn’t going swimming tonight.	E.g. I told you before that I am not interested in you in that way.	E.g. Let’s speak about the class rules again before we continue.	E.g. We can talk about it more when you feel less angry.
