Three phrases for hosting a party.
1. make yourself at home(It means relax in my home, which doesn't mean as it is literal if only you are very good friends.)
Tips: U could use "make yourself at home" when u will be visited for a while, but for a couple of minutes' coming over.
Ex: Hey, I just have ten more minutes on this call,
I'd love to chat. Have a seat in the kitchen. Make your self at home.
2. enjoy yourself(have fun when u r here or a way to say "see u later")
Ex: Enjoy yourself, we'll catch up more later.
3. help yourself(For food and drinks. Go get food and drinks if we sat down at a table will say "help yourself")
Tips: Feel free to get on their own.
Role play:
A: Hello, I'm so glad u made it. Make yourself at home.
B: Thank u. It's good to see you. Oh, It's been way too long.
A: Yes, there are snacks and drinks in other room. Help yourself.
B: Thx. Is David coming? I brought something for his birthday since I was at a town of his party.
A: Yes, He's not here yet though. I need to answer the door. Enjoy yourself, and we catch up more later!
