No. I usually make phone calls in Japanese in private. But on the other hand, our company is very multicultural, and some non-Japanese people can't speak Japanese. Therefore I must use English in my work and use message chat as long as possible.
I don't rarely make phone call in English because We sometimes connect to İnternational people.
No, because it not popular in my country
I enjoy this course.
No, I have never tried to
No not at all
Not yet it but I want to do it soon, is it my answer correct?

Yes, I have left a voice mail message in English.
Yes, I made lots of calls in which i talked i English with my teachers, classmates and friends, but I did not put any voice message in English yet. I got the idea to put voice message in English for friends and classmates to improve my English.
Yes, of course .. I leave messages , videocalls or voice messages for my friends in english. It's very interesting for me! :-)
I never leave any voicemail or something like this. When something is urgent I call a phone letter or write a message about calling
why it does not work?
Hello khaled.alabbasy,
I've checked the page and everything seems to be working correctly, so I can only assume that your problem is a local one related to the device you're using, your internet settings or your local provider. I suggest accessing the page on a different device to see if you are experiencing compatibility issues. Sometimes certain devices (mobile devices in particular) have problems with certain pages.

No, I never made it. Because, I just needed English to use when I was doing waiterness. So, I didn't study anybody to make a communication with English. I just got ne English voice message from my English teacher which was about my question. That's it.
No I didn't, at least not many often as I would like to practise my English, I sometimes receive phone calls from people who speak English though. Most of the times I need to write emails in English to customers and suppliers but I rarely need to call them.
Thanks for the lesson.
Great site!
Good :)
i do, but these days we use smart apps to send a voice message
I've never leave voice message or call somebody in English. Because I don't have a friend who is fluent in English.
I always reply with an Email
I'd rather answer emails than calls
To be honest I had never speak English either in phone calls or voice mails.
When someone speaks in English in phone calls, I struggled a lot to answer them.
The same happens to me. I hope that changes in a short time.
Not always, I use my phone call message in Burmese because I am a burmese but sometimes I make a make a call in English maybe.
I did not make it in English but you encourage me now to do it but I do not have friends who speak English so what can I do?
Do you ever make phone calls or leave voicemail messages in English?
