Hi! I'm Lumi — let's practice this out loud 🎙️

English for Construction Workers

On a job site, English is safety and salary. These phrases cover the whole day: warnings, instructions, help and boss talk. Practice them out loud — nobody repeats things three times on site.

Key phrases

Watch out!
The universal danger call — hear it, freeze, look.
Put your hard hat on.
Hard hat, safety glasses, gloves, vest — the safety four.
Where do you need this?
Saves you a second trip every time.
I need a hand over here.
The natural way to call for backup.
Can you show me? I learn faster by watching.
The golden site phrase — watching beats pretending.
We need more cement.
“We need more…” + any material.
What time do we start tomorrow?
End-of-shift classic — expect “seven sharp”.
It's done — come take a look.
Invite the check — it prevents redo work.

Tip: Never fake understanding on site — it costs fingers or jobs. "Sorry, show me one more time" is a professional's phrase.
