Here are a few key examples of how Real Spoken English is different than textbook English.
 
>looking to<
 
In Real Spoken English, native speakers use the phrase “looking to” to mean take action to do something. This probably sounds a bit confusing so here are some examples:
 
Textbook English: “I want to sell my house, so I will put it on the market.”
Real Spoken English: “I’m looking to put my house on the market.”
Real Spoken English: “I’m looking into taking classes at my local university.”
