EXPRESSING SYMPATHY

Expressing Sympathy


  • Expressing sympathy or feeling of pity and sorrow, when we know someone or people are unlucky or have trouble and in bad condition. We express it directly to him/her orally or we can use a letter or card by post also by short message service.
  • Sometimes bad things happen. When we hear about bad things that happen to other people it's a good idea to express sympathy. This can be difficult as we want to express our concern, but don't want to be intrusive. Here are some common phrase to help you express sympathy.
  • I'm sorry to hear about ...
    Please accept my condolences. (used when someone close to another has died)
    That's so sad.
    I hope things get better soon.
    I hope you feel better soon.

  • Examples

  1. Ow, how awful
  2. how pity you are
  3. oh, dear
  • Example Dialogues

    Person 1: I've been rather sick lately.
    Person 2: I hope you feel better soon.
