Hello!

Welcome back to Talk Nora.

Hi, everyone.

I'm Emma, and this is Jack.

We make videos to help you speak English every day.

Yes, please like this video and subscribe to our channel.

It helps us so much.

Today, we are talking about how to describe emotions and feelings in English.

We will practice listening, learn useful phrases,

and have a fun conversation.

Are you ready?

Let's begin.

So, Jack, how are you feeling today?

Me?

Oh, I am feeling very happy.

The sun is shining.

That's wonderful!

I am happy too.

But this morning, I was a little tired.

You were tired?

Oh no, I'm sorry.

It's okay.

I drank some coffee.

Now I feel energetic.

Good!

You know, talking about feelings,

sometimes it's difficult in English.

I understand.

There are many, many words.

That's why our topic is perfect for today.

We are learning about emotions and feelings?

Yes!

We will learn simple words for happy, sad, angry, everything.

And we will learn how to say,

I am or I feel.

Okay.

I feel excited to learn.

Oh, excited!

That's a great word!

Let's start.

Let's start with the most basic feelings.

The first two are opposites, happy and sad.

Jack, can you give me a sentence with happy?

Yes, of course.

I am happy today.

Perfect.

And we can also say, I feel happy.

Both are correct.

When were you happy recently?

Hmm.

Yesterday.

I was happy because my favorite football team won.

Nice.

I was happy.

Past tense.

Now, what about sad?

I am sad when my friend leaves.

Good example.

It's a lonely feeling.

Now, another pair of opposites.

Angry and calm.

Angry is a strong feeling.

Like, my brother is angry when I use his phone.

Right.

And we can say, a little angry or annoyed.

I am annoyed by the cold weather.

And calm, that is a quiet, peaceful feeling.

Yes, I feel calm when I sit by the river.

So we have happy, sad, angry, calm.

Now some feelings about energy.

Tired and energetic.

I am tired at the end of the day.

Every day.

I know the feeling.

I am so tired.

And in the future?

Maybe later today?

I will be tired after we finish this video.

Probably true.

And energetic?

You are always energetic in the morning, Emma.

I try to be.

I drink coffee to feel energetic.

Okay, now feelings about being with people or in new places.

The first one is shy.

Shy.

I feel shy when I speak English to new people.

But you are doing great now.

The opposite of shy could be confident.

Confident.

I feel more confident speaking English with you.

Aww, that's so sweet.

Thank you.

And what about nervous?

It's like shy, but also for tests or waiting.

I feel nervous before a big test.

My hands feel shaky.

Shaky, yes.

That's a good physical sign of nervous.

100

And the opposite of nervous?

101

Relaxed?

102

Perfect.

103

I feel relaxed on vacation.

104

Or I feel relaxed when I'm with you.

105

I feel relaxed with you, too.

106

Let's talk about scared or afraid.

107

They are the same.

108

I am scared of very high places.

109

I am scared of heights.

110

That's the phrase.

111

And the opposite, when you feel no danger?

112

Safe.

113

I feel safe in my home.

114

Good.

115

Or brave.

116

Brave is when you do something even if you are scared.

117

You are brave to learn a new language.

118

Thank you.

119

I feel brave sometimes.

120

Now, a fun one.

121

Surprised.

122

Surprised?

123

Like, wow, I am surprised.

124

Yes, it can be good or bad.

125

I was pleasantly surprised by the gift,

126

or I was unpleasantly surprised by the rain.

127

And what about bored?

128

Bored is when nothing is interesting.

129

I am bored when I wait for the bus.

130

The movie was boring, so I felt bored.

131

Excellent connection.

132

Boring describes the thing.

133

Bored-a describes the feeling.

134

Let's try some stronger feelings.

135

Excited.

136

Excited is a strong, happy feeling about the future.

137

I am excited for the weekend.

138

Yes.

139

And frustrated?

140

Frustrated is when you try and try, but it's difficult.

141

I feel frustrated when I don't understand grammar.

142

I understand.

143

It's okay to feel frustrated sometimes.

144

And proud?

145

Proud is a good feeling about you or someone you love.

146

My mother is proud of me.

147

And I am proud of you, too.

148

You work so hard.

149

One last important one.

150

Worried.

151

Worried is when you think about a problem in the future.

152

I am worried about my friend.

153

She is sick.

154

That's a very caring feeling.

155

You can say, I'm worried about, or I'm concerned about.

156

Now, let's practice all together.

157

Jack, how did you feel this morning?

158

This morning, I felt tired first,

159

then I drank coffee and felt more energetic,

160

and now I feel happy to be here.

161

Wonderful.

162

And yesterday, did you feel nervous about anything?

163

Yesterday, yes.

164

I had a small talk with my boss.

165

I felt a little nervous,

166

but after, I felt relieved and calm.

167

That's a great story.

168

You use so many feeling words.

169

Tired, energetic, happy, nervous, relieved, calm.

170

Perfect.

171

It's easier when we talk about real life.

172

It always is.

173

Remember, it's okay to have many feelings.

174

The important thing is to learn how to say them.

175

Now, let's go through some essential phrases we use every day to talk about our feelings.

176

Jack, can you help me?

177

Sure.

178

These are phrases that are very, very useful.

179

Let's start with asking about feelings.

180

The most common is, of course, how are you?

181

But we can also say, how are you doing?

182

Or, how's it going?

183

Right.

184

And to be more specific,

185

you can ask, how are you feeling today?

186

That's a very caring question question.

187

I like when you ask me that.

188

To answer, we can say,

189

I'm good, not bad, or pretty good, thanks.

190

And if you're not so good?

191

You can be honest.

192

I'm a little tired, or I'm feeling a bit under the weather.

193

That means you feel a little sick.

194

Good one.

195

Now, for stronger feelings, when something wonderful happens,

196

we say, I'm so happy for you.

197

Yes, like, you got a new job,

198

I'm so happy for you.

199

And for something you want to happen in the future,

200

I'm looking forward to… I'm looking forward to our vacation next month.

201

It's a happy, excited feeling about the future.

202

Perfect.

203

Now what about worries?

204

We often say, I'm worried about… I'm worried about the presentation at work,

205

or I'm concerned about my exam.

206

And if someone tells you their worry,

207

you can say, don't worry,

208

or it's going to be okay.

209

That's nice.

210

It helps people feel better.

211

Another strong feeling is disappointment.

212

I'm so disappointed.

213

Yes.

214

For example, I'm so disappointed the concert was cancelled.

215

And a softer way is,

216

that's too bad, or what a shame.

217

Let's talk about surprise.

218

A very common phrase is, I can't believe it.

219

I can't believe it's already December.

220

For good or bad surprises.

221

And for a good surprise, what a nice surprise!

222

For a bad one, that's a shock.

223

Got it.

224

Now, feelings about missing people are things.

225

I miss you.

226

Very simple.

227

Very important.

228

Or, I miss home.

229

In the past, I missed the bus.

230

That's different.

231

Right.

232

Different meaning.

233

English is funny.

234

What about when you like something?

235

You can say, I love this song,

236

or I'm really into this new series.

237

Into means you really like it and are interested.

238

And if you don't like something,

239

a polite way is, I'm not a fan of.

240

I'm not a fan of cold weather.

241

It's nicer than, I hate cold weather.

242

Sometimes feelings are confusing.

243

We can say, I'm confused, or I don't understand.

244

And it's okay to ask for help.

245

Can you explain that again?

246

Or, I need help with this.

247

When you were very busy or stressed,

248

an important phrase is, I need a break.

249

Yes, or I'm feeling overwhelmed.

250

That means too many things at once.

251

And after a break, I feel much better now,

252

or I'm ready to continue.

253

Now, phrases for when you make a mistake or have a problem, I'm so sorry.

254

Or my mistake, or I apologize.

255

And to forgive someone, it's okay.

256

Okay, don't worry about it, or no problem.

257

For physical feelings, we say,

258

I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, I'm cold.

259

Good.

260

Those are simple but used all the time.

261

Now, a social feeling, embarrassment.

262

I'm so embarrassed.

263

Like, I called the teacher mom by accident.

264

I was so embarrassed.

265

Oh no. We can say, that's embarrassing, too.

266

And to make someone feel less embarrassed,

267

you say, it happens to everyone.

268

One last group.

269

Phrases for encouragement, to give someone confidence.

270

Like, you can do it.

271

Very simple.

272

Or, I believe in you.

273

Take your time.

274

Good job.

275

And, I'm proud of you.

276

Those are the best feelings to hear.

277

They are.

278

So, we have many phrases, from, how are you?

279

To, I'm proud of you.

280

Practice these, and you can talk about many feelings.

281

It's not so scary now.

282

We have the words.

283

Let's talk about some important words about feelings.

284

Sometimes I hear phrases and think, what does that mean?

285

For example, feel like.

286

We say it a lot.

287

Ah, yes.

288

Feel like is very useful.

289

It has two main meanings.

290

First, it can mean you want something.

291

I feel like watching a comedy tonight.

292

It means I want to watch a comedy.

293

Okay, so I feel like eating pizza.

294

That's easy.

295

What's the second meaning?

296

The second meaning is to describe a feeling or a similarity.

297

I feel like a superhero when I finish a big project.

298

Or, this blanket feels like soft cotton.

299

Oh, I see.

300

So it's for a wanted action or a description.

301

I feel like going for a walk,

302

and this water feels like ice.

303

Perfect.

304

You got it.

305

Another one I hear is hard feelings.

306

No hard feelings.

307

What's that mean?

308

That's a good idiom.

309

It means there's no anger or bad emotion after a disagreement or problem.

310

For example, maybe we argue about what movie to watch.

311

Later, I can say, hey, no hard feelings, okay?

312

It means let's still be friends.

313

So it's for keeping a relationship good even after a fight.

314

Exactly.

315

It means you don't hold on to the negative feeling.

316

What about mixed feelings?

317

That's a great one.

318

It means you have two or more different feelings about the same thing.

319

You are not sure how you feel.

320

For example, I have mixed feelings about my new job.

321

I'm excited, but I'm also nervous.

322

That makes sense.

323

So you feel happy and scared at the same time.

324

Yes, exactly.

325

It's very common for big life changes.

326

I love the phrase, over the moon.

327

It sounds funny.

328

It does.

329

It means extremely happy, delighted.

330

She was over the moon when she got the promotion.

331

It's a very strong, positive feeling.

332

So it's more than just happy.

333

It's very, very, very happy.

334

Yes.

335

It's like you were so happy you could jump over the moon.

336

And the opposite?

337

What about feeling down?

338

Feeling down is a gentle,

339

common way to say you feel sad or a little depressed.

340

He's been feeling down since his pet got sick.

341

It's less strong than, I'm devastated.

342

Okay.

343

So you can ask a friend,

344

you seem like you're feeling down.

345

Do you want to talk?

346

That's a very kind and natural thing to say.

347

Here's a physical one.

348

Butterflies in your stomach.

349

Oh, that's a good one.

350

It means you feel nervous,

351

anxious, or excited in your stomach.

352

It's that fluttery feeling.

353

I had butterflies in my stomach before my first date.

354

I get that before I speak English sometimes.

355

It's a nervous excitement.

356

That's the perfect way to describe it.

357

What does cool down or calm down mean for feelings?

358

That means to become less angry or upset.

359

If someone is very angry,

360

you might say, please calm down, let's talk.

361

And after you argue, you need time to cool down before you talk again.

362

So it's like the feeling goes from hot to cold.

363

That's a great way to remember it.

364

The word sensitive, is that a feeling?

365

It's a way to describe how someone feels emotions.

366

A sensitive person feels emotions very deeply.

367

They might cry easily at a sad movie or get hurt by words quickly.

368

It can be a good thing.

369

It means they are caring.

370

So, you could say, be careful what you say.

371

She's very sensitive about her work.

372

Perfect example.

373

It's about being easily affected emotionally.

374

On edge is another one.

375

I feel on edge.

376

That means you feel nervous,

377

tense, or anxious, like you're waiting for something bad to happen.

378

I've been on edge all day waiting for the test results.

379

So it's not relaxed at all.

380

You are stressed.

381

Yes.

382

You can't relax.

383

You are on the edge of your seat.

384

Last one.

385

A gut feeling.

386

Ooh, that's important.

387

A gut feeling is an instinct.

388

It's a strong feeling about what to do or what is true,

389

but not from logic.

390

It's from your gut, your gut feeling.

391

My gut feeling tells me this is a good idea.

392

So it's not I think,

393

it's I feel in a deep way.

394

Exactly.

395

It's a very powerful kind of feeling.

396

We should sometimes listen to it.

397

Wow.

398

So many special phrases for feelings.

399

It's not just happy and sad.

400

No, it's a rich language.

401

And now you know how to use them in real talk.

402

This helps me understand movies and friends so much better.

403

I'm so glad.

404

That's the goal.

405

We talked a lot about emotions and feelings today.

406

We really did.

407

We covered so many words,

408

from the basic ones like happy and sad.

409

To more specific ones like frustrated, proud, and overwhelmed.

410

And we practiced so many essential phrases,

411

like how to ask, how are you feeling?

412

And how to say, I'm looking forward to it.

413

Yes.

414

And we learned those special vocabulary phrases,

415

too, like mixed feelings and butterflies in my stomach.

416

I like that one.

417

It's a fun one.

418

The most important thing is that now you have more words.

419

You have a bigger toolbox for your English conversations.

420

A bigger toolbox.

421

I like that idea.

422

Before, maybe I only had happy and sad.

423

Now I have excited, nervous,

424

proud, calm… Annoyed, grateful, worried, relieved.

425

So many!

426

It helps me explain myself better.

427

And it helps me understand other people better when they talk.

428

That's exactly right, Jack.

429

Language is for connection.

430

Talking about feelings helps us connect with people.

431

So, what should our friends do to practice this?

432

Great question!

433

A very easy thing is to check in with yourself.

434

Three times today, just ask yourself,

435

how do I feel now?

436

And say the answer in English, even in your head.

437

I feel hungry.

438

I feel bored on this train.

439

I feel happy listening to music.

440

Perfect.

441

And if you live with someone,

442

you can ask them, how are you feeling right now?

443

Listen to their answer.

444

It's a very kind thing to do, too.

445

Okay, I will try that.

446

I will ask you later, Emma.

447

I look forward to it.

448

Remember, everyone, practice a little English every day.

449

It is the best way.

450

You don't need to study for hours.

451

Just use a few new words.

452

And now our favorite part.

453

The question of the day is very simple today.

454

We learned so many words.

455

It is.

456

So tell us, what is one word for how you are feeling right now?

457

Just one word.

458

Are you tired?

459

Excited?

460

Relaxed?

461

Curious?

462

Write your one feeling word in the comments below.

463

We read every single comment,

464

and we love to see where you are all learning from.

465

It makes us feel so happy and proud to see your comments.

466

It really does.

467

And if you have a story about a time you felt a strong emotion,

468

you can write that too.

469

We would love to read it.

470

Before we go, a big thank you.

471

Thank you for spending your time with us.

472

Thank you for wanting to learn and grow.

473

It is a brave thing to do.
