Do you want to learn English the natural way?

Well, in this video you're going to learn English with the Comprehensible Input Method.

All you need to do is just watch,

listen, and you will learn new English vocabulary.

Today we're in the village of Goring.

Now, Goring only has about 3,000 people living here,

but as you can see the village is on the River Thames.

This is the River Thames and if you keep walking in that direction you will eventually get to London.

Anyway, let's go and have a wander around the small village of Goring.

Let's go.

Right now it's actually about 1 p.m on a Tuesday so it's no surprise that it's basically empty.

There's basically not a soul in sight around these parts anyway.

It's basically empty because it's in the middle of the day on a Tuesday.

so I get the pleasure to walk around here by myself with nobody else here it's pretty cool

so we're more going into the town of Goring now over there is a real estate agents

so if you're interested in buying a house you can go there and spend all of your savings

on a really expensive house at the real estate agents.

Over there is goring food and wine,

so if you like food and if you like wine,

well, here's the perfect place for you, I guess.

As you can see we have the classic British post box,

the Royal Mail, the classic post box used in the UK.

And you can see it's from the Royal Mail and the Royal Mail is the postal service in the UK.

It's what we all use to send our letters and our packages and our parcels,

use the Royal Mail.

This sign up here says to let.

Well, if you've ever wondered what to let means,

it means that you can rent this place.

It means it's available for someone to rent.

That's what to let means.

So if you see a sign that says to let,

it means that this place can be rented right now.

So now you know.

Up here we have the arcade.

So in the arcade you will get lots of different kinds of things.

This is a cafe over here.

To the left we have cards and toys.

Then we have a barber's over there to get your hair cut.

If you want to get your hair cut you can go to this barber's.

Here we have an art store

and over there we have a pilates place where you can do pilates if you want and yoga,

pilates and yoga

this pub over here is called the Catherine Will

and it's about 350 years old this building here was built in like the 1700s something like

that and you can tell by looking at it

that it's an old building but yeah it's about 300

or 350 years old this uh this pub here

which is quite amazing

and over here on the other side of the road we

have a library it's just a little library for this town

and you can go

and get books to read from this library it looks like

it's closed right now there's a sign hanging on the front of the door saying

that it's closed but yeah there's a little local library here in Goring.

Now I believe if we walk down here

we're going to find a church I believe looks like this is a footpath in this direction

so So the church should be at the end of this footpath somewhere, I assume.

Let's take a look at this sign.

The sign says, why doesn't someone cut the grass?

Ah, it's because the church has chosen to allow space

for wildlife as well as people so the reason they haven't cut the grass here in this church yard

is because they want to allow the wildlife in the area to live here as well so having tall grass

helps the wildlife I suppose.

See they haven't cut the grass because I guess this helps the wildlife right

so they've let the grass grow long they've let it grow really long for the wildlife.

Okay it looks like we're approaching the church now as you can see we are in the graveyard right now

and there are lots of gravestones around this here is a war memorial

we have lots of poppies here this is a wreath a poppy wreath actually it's just made of plastic

but they look like poppies so you can see that down there we have the dates 1914 to 1918.

These are the dates for World War I

But around here We have the dates 1939 to 1945 And those are the dates for World War II

And here we can find the names of lots of soldiers Who passed away during one of the world wars here

As usual we have a notice board outside the church

some information about events that are happening inside this church

and here is an advert for a an event for little

children it's called little lights it's for preschool it's a free

preschool group looks like it's on wednesdays at 10 30 a.m so this is an event for preschool children so

three or four years old probably.

So it looks like there's nobody here.

I'm going to be speaking quietly again because although it seems like nobody's here,

if the door is unlocked it probably means that somebody is here somewhere.

If I had to guess I would say the vicar is probably on the premises somewhere.

The vicar is probably here around somewhere so I will keep my voice down.

And with churches you always get this echo in the room, this nice echo.

You hear that?

I'm stamping my foot on the floor and you get this this nice echo in the room.

Sounds good.

We have this nice thing which looks like a kind of golden eagle.

See it's a really nice golden eagle with a beak,

with a golden beak there.

So the golden eagle has a golden beak as well and And we have a nice stained glass window over here.

If I was more educated,

I could tell you exactly what the images in these stained glass windows were showing.

But sadly, I'm not educated enough to explain what is being shown on these windows.

Would you like to live in a house like this?

In a little cottage you can see this is called the mill cottage.

Would you like to live in a cottage like this?

Crossing over the River Thames now So Goring is a small town which is on the River Thames.

So yes, this is the River Thames right here.

100

And this river will go all the way to london but

101

if you want to go to london you need to go in

102

that direction if you keep going in

103

that direction down there you will end up in london

104

so just keep following that river and you will get to london eventually

105

if we walk past here we go into the town of Streetly

106

so it's kind of Goring and Streetly are very close together

107

so past this way is Streetly but back over this bridge

108

that is Goring in that direction see there's the sign for Goring so there's Streetly and there's Goring

109

hence the name of the station being Goring and Streetly.

110

Goring and Streetly are right next to each other hence the name Goring

111

and Streetly hence the name of the train station being Goring and Streetly.

112

So we're heading back over the bridge back away from Streetly back into the town of Goring.

113

Unfortunately it is actually quite a busy road this one even

114

though the views are very nice right the views are very pleasant there's actually a lot of cars

115

that go up and down this road.

116

Let's go for a little walk by the river Thames now.

117

If I had to describe the village of Goring in one word it would definitely be peaceful.

118

It's a very peaceful place.

119

It's definitely a big change of pace.

120

It's a change of pace from London.

121

It's a big change of pace from the hustle and bustle of London.

122

In London you get people rushing around.

123

People in London are rushed off their feet,

124

rushing around trying to go to work trying to make money and there are sirens and noise and chaos

125

but here in Goring it's very relaxing you could even use

126

the word tranquil to describe Goring I think we have some signs over here this one says caution

127

slippery surface when wet it means that

128

when it rains the surface can be very slippery right and

129

that you might slip over just like this man here you might slip over

130

because it's a slippery surface this is very important for elderly people you know they need to be careful

131

when there's a slippery surface because they might hurt themselves.

132

Down here is another sign.

133

This sign says no fishing from the 15th of March to the 31st of October.

134

So you're not allowed to fish here between those dates.

135

Why?

136

I don't know.

137

I have no clue why.

138

But that's what the sign says.

139

Over here there's another sign.

140

This sign says Goring Visitor Mooring.

141

You're probably wondering what does mooring mean?

142

Well, this boat here is moored.

143

This is a moored boat.

144

It's kind of like parked,

145

like a car is parked.

146

The boat is moored.

147

And there are some more moored boats up here.

148

you can see that this one there's a rope down here now the rope is wrapped around

149

this thing here

150

and then the rope is attached to the boat over there the rope is tied around

151

that thing there so the rope is tied to the boat

152

and then it's wrapped around this thing

153

and also the rope is quite taut yeah it's quite a taut rope there it's not loose

154

it doesn't sag there's no sag in this rope it's very

155

taut right there's not much sag in it the same is

156

true with this boat over here this boat is called the snapdragon there and it's got a rope

157

wrapped around this thing here

158

and the rope is taut yes there's no sag in the in the rope

159

if the rope had sag in it then it would be loose you know there would be extra rope

160

but this is taut which means like it's tight it's completely tight and there's no sag in the rope.

161

I think you'll agree with me when I say that the views here are very picturesque.

162

These views are incredibly picturesque here.

163

They could almost be on a postcard or something, right?

164

It's almost like the perfect picture here.

165

It's very picturesque.

166

The scenery around here is very picturesque now actually

167

if you keep walking in that direction you will eventually reach London

168

and there is a path there's a path here

169

that goes all the way to London the problem is it will take about 30 hours

170

to to get there

171

so probably not what I'm going to do today it will probably take 30 hours of total walking time

172

and probably about three to five days of walking but

173

if you were slightly insane you could maybe decide to walk all the way to London from Goring

174

if you really felt the need to do that.

175

the thing with learning English with comprehensible input is that

176

if you focus on listening during the beginner and intermediate stages

177

and you focus on just acquiring lots of new words lots of new vocabulary.

178

This is a good way to do it because you will end up with really good pronunciation.

179

You see, when you learn new vocabulary by listening,

180

you learn the correct pronunciation and even the correct stressed syllable.

181

For example, if you take a word like development,

182

just a random word off the top of my head,

183

development, in this case the stress on this word needs to

184

go on the second syllable you need to say development like this however

185

if you learned this word by reading it on the page

186

you would not know actually where the stressed syllable goes

187

and you might accidentally put the stressed syllable on the first syllable and you might say

188

development or you might put it on the third syllable

189

and say development or maybe you would put it on the fourth syllable

190

and say development like that but

191

if instead you learn new vocabulary through a process of listening

192

to hundreds of hours of English before you start focusing on

193

speaking then you're going to feel like yeah the word development is supposed to be pronounced like

194

that development and that will feel correct to you

195

if you haven't heard that word

196

if you haven't done lots of listening then it's possible

197

that you will put the stressed syllable in the wrong place and you may do this with lots of different words.

198

If you like to read in your head a lot then it's quite possible

199

that you will not pronounce them correctly in the end which is why

200

at English Sponge we recommend a heavy focus on listening during the beginner and intermediate stages.

201

You listen, you acquire words through the process of listening so

202

that you get the correct pronunciation and for example the correct stressed syllable in each word.

203

At English Sponge we believe that if people learn English through the process

204

that we offer on EnglishSponge.com they will end up sounding very natural

205

and with good pronunciation whereas when people follow the traditional method of learning English,

206

which is doing lots of speaking,

207

reading and writing, even as a beginner,

208

we believe that people end up with pronunciation issues because of this,

209

because they haven't focused on listening to the correct pronunciation in the beginning.

210

So that is just one more reason to learn English through the comprehensible input method.

211

And

212

if you do like learning English with comprehensible input on english

213

sponge.com we have nearly 600 videos right now at all levels

214

and the website will track your time it will track how long you've been listening for

215

and lots of other good stuff okay guys that's the end

216

of this video i hope you've enjoyed watching me walk around

217

the village of goring i hope you've enjoyed watching me wander around stroll around this village here in southern England.

218

If you do like this kind of video where I walk around a village specifically as opposed to a town

219

or a city, check out this video where I walk around the village of Dorchester on Thames,

220

a village with only about a thousand people living there.

221

Thanks for watching guys and I'll see you in the next one.

222

Bye-bye.
