Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases NO NEED TO and TO NEED TO GO
In this English lesson I wanted to help you learn the English phrase, No need to. This is just a quick way to start a sentence that we would normally start by saying, “There is no need to.” But often in English, in spoken English, we'll say “No need to...” instead. Maybe you're going to a party and you say, Hey, should I bring some food? The person might respond and say, No need to bring food. There will be lots. Maybe... Let me think of another example. Let's say my brother was coming over to help me do some weeding. The weeds are growing really fast here on the farm. If it rained or if it's raining, I might text him and say, No need to come over today. It's too wet to work outside. So again, it's just a short form of the phrase, “There is no need to... ” or “There's no need to...” but often in spoken English or when we text, Sorry, the geese are honking. We say, “No need to...” just to shorten things up a bit.

The other phrase I wanted to teach you today is the phrase Sorry, there's something crawling on me. There's lots of bugs too, is the phrase, “to need to go”. Now, this can simply mean that you have to do something. You can say, I need to go to the store. But the meaning I wanted to teach you today is the meaning that refers to having to go to the bathroom. Let's say you really need to go pee. You might say to someone, Can we stop the car at the next rest stop because I need to go. When we were driving, when we were younger and our kids were younger, sometimes one of our kids in the back of the van would say, Can we stop? I need to go. And what they meant is that they needed to go to the bathroom. So it's a very nice way of saying that you need to use the washroom or you need to go to the bathroom.
So to review, “No need to...” simply means, “There is no need to... ” No need to watch this video twice, if you understand it the first time. And the phrase, “to need to go” can simply mean that you have to go somewhere. But we also use it to mean that you need to go to the bathroom.
Hey, let's look at a comment from I'm not sure why I did that little dance. I think that's what little kids do when they need to go, anyways. Let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Brenno. Hi, Bob. Thanks as usual. We always have more than enough knowledge with you to go around. Enough said. Have a good weekend. My response? Thanks. You too. Yes, Brenno, I hope you have a good week. And that was an excellent use of both phrases from the previous video. Good job.
Well, hey, I don't have a lot to talk about today. I am out here. It's a nice sunny day. You'll see that in a moment as I walk into the sun. I got up really early. I went for a walk. The only thing I would say is I have actually started to be a little bit bored. This is the fourth day of my summer vacation. And I mentioned to Jen the other day that somewhere around four or 5:00, all of a sudden, I was a little bit bored.
It's rare for me to be bored. So that was something new and it's a good thing. When I'm bored then new ideas come to me. When I'm bored, I start to think of new ways to teach English in particular. And I have some ideas that I've been mulling over in my head for ways that I can make new videos or little posts I can do on my community tab and those kinds of things. So yes. Bob, the Canadian, after months of being a little bit too busy, was actually bored for just a little bit.
But I won't be bored later today because it is actually market day. We're loading the red van,
