Common Ways to Say "Nice talking to you" and Related Usage Tips I was recently asked about the most common ways to express that it was a pleasant experience to converse with someone at the end of a conversation. ;) Here is my answer: When you say "talk" it's more natural to say "to" than "with". When you say "chat" or "speak" it's more common to say "with" than "to". Examples: "Nice to talk to you again." "It was great chatting with you!" "Thank you for speaking with me." Some of these types of generic phrases that are most common (for me) are: "It was nice to talk to you!" (usually after a convo), or "It was nice speaking with you." Also "it was great" phrases, like "It was great to talk to you." Furthermore, sometimes we cut off the subject especially with less enthusiastic situations (i.e. you're just saying it to be polite)... such as: "Nice talking to you." or "Great to see you." etc. Hope this helps someone. :)

Subjunctive Mood Clarification on "Incorrect" Usage The "Subjunctive Mood" is a grammatical mood involving expressing various states of unreality such as wish, emotion, possibility, judgment, opinion, necessity, or action that has not yet occurred. Example using the future subjunctive: If I were rich, I would donate money to charity. Sometimes grammar rules are very obvious to native speakers (if the wrong word choice is used, then the whole sentence sounds funny or strange), but sometimes incorrect grammar can sound OK to us. In fact, as you may know, it's common even for native speakers to make grammatical errors, especially when the rule is very particular, like in this case. It's actually pretty common to say, "If I was ___" like "if I was rich" or "if I was your boyfriend." However, from what I've researched it is formally incorrect. So, the correct formal sentence would be "If I were your boyfriend." However, native speakers don't always use correct formal grammar and the "incorrect" form may also be commonly used, as is the case here.
