Lily, oh no, don't move.
4
I'm calling 911 right now.
5
Hurry, Tom.
6
Hello?
7
Hello?
8
I need an ambulance.
9
My friend fell, and she can't walk.
10
Welcome back to Daily English Talk.
11
Yes, hello, hello.
12
Don't worry, I'm okay now.
13
That was just a little preview of today's lesson.
14
A little preview.
15
Lily, you were lying on the floor of a parking lot in New York City.
16
It was very dramatic, yes, but today we have a very important topic for you.
17
Today we are going to teach you how to call an ambulance in English.
18
Emergency English.
19
This is one of the most useful lessons we have ever made, because emergencies happen, and when they do, you need to speak fast and speak clearly.
20
And after today's lesson, you will know exactly what to say, so stay with us.
21
Let's go!
22
But first, before we start, we have a question for you.
23
Yes, we want to hear from you.
24
Have you ever seen an emergency?
25
Or have you ever called for help?
26
Write your answer in the comments right now.
27
Tell us where were you, what happened.
28
Write in English.
29
Even one sentence is perfect.
30
We read every comment, every single one, so write it down.
31
Okay, now let's talk about our story.
32
Because Tom and I, we actually lived through a real emergency together in the United States.
33
That day, I will never forget it.
34
So this happened when Tom and I were visiting New York City.
35
We were walking near Central Park.
36
It was a beautiful afternoon.
37
Blue sky, sunshine, people everywhere.
38
was eating a pretzel.
39
I love pretzels.
40
Anyway, I was walking and looking at my phone at the same time. As always.
41
And suddenly I stepped off the sidewalk the wrong way and I twisted my angle really badly.
42
I heard the sound like a loud pop, and Lily just went down.
43
She fell to the ground.
44
I couldn't stand up.
45
I tried, but the pain was terrible.
46
I said, "Tom, I think I need an ambulance." And this is where your daily English talk lessons came in handy,
47
because I knew exactly what to do.
48
I called 911.
49
And he was so calm.
50
I was crying on the floor and Tom was on the phone.
51
Very professional.
52
Inside, I was not calm at all.
53
But I knew the words, and that made everything so much easier.
54
And that is why we are teaching you this today.
55
You never plan for an emergency, but you can prepare for one.
56
So now let us teach you everything Tom said on that phone call, step by step.
57
Okay, before the vocabulary, let's look at some grammar, because in an emergency, your grammar needs to be simple and clear.
58
Yes, this is not the time for long, complicated sentences.
59
Short, direct clear when you call 9 -1 -1 the operator will ask you questions
60
and you need to answer fast
61
so today we are going to practice two grammar structures number
62
one stating a problem number two giving a location number one
63
stating a problem the structure is my person plus has or is plus "My friend has fallen.
64
My friend is not breathing.
65
My friend is unconscious.
66
Thank you.
67
Great.
68
And what about yourself?
69
If it's you, you say, "I have fallen." "I am bleeding." "I cannot breathe." Perfect.
70
Simple subject, simple verb, simple problem.
71
That's it.
72
Number two: giving your location.
73
This is so important.
74
The dispatcher needs to know where you are.
75
The structure is I am at near on, plus location.
76
For example, I am at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street.
77
I am near Central Park on the south side.
78
I am in front of a coffee shop called Blue Cup.
79
Be as specific as you can.
80
Look around you.
81
Read street signs.
82
Look at building names.
83
And if you don't know the exact address, just describe what you see.
84
Like what?
85
Like, I can see a red building on my left.
86
There is a pharmacy across the street.
87
That is actually really helpful.
88
Even native speakers do that.
89
Exactly!
90
Okay, now let's get into the main vocabulary.
91
Alright, let's go through the most important emergency phrases and words, step by step, just like a real 911 call.
92
And we are going to use our New York story to teach each one.
93
Ready?
94
Ready.
95
"I need an ambulance." The very first thing Tom said when he called 911 was,
96
"I need an ambulance." Say it with us.
97
"I need an ambulance." An ambulance is the emergency vehicle.
98
It carries sick or injured people to the hospital.
99
In our story, Tom called 911 and said this immediately.
100
He didn't say, "Hello, how are you?" first.
101
The 911 operator actually said, "Go ahead, sir.
102
Tell me what happened.
103
They are trained to stay very calm." So practice this phrase right now.
104
Say it out loud.
105
I need an ambulance.
106
My friend has fallen and she can't get up.
107
This was a situation exactly.
108
I fell, I was on the ground, I couldn't stand.
109
So I said, my friend has fallen and she can't get up.
110
Very dramatic.
111
Key word here.
112
"Fallen." This is the past participle of "fall." "She has fallen." "He has fallen." "I have fallen." Another example:
113
"My grandfather has fallen in the bathroom."
114
or "A man has fallen on the subway platform." What if the person is unconscious, not awake?
115
Great question!
116
You say, "He is unconscious," or, "She is not responding." Let's say it together.
117
"My friend has fallen and she can't get up." She is in a lot of pain.
118
Yes, this was also very true.
119
After I explained what happened, the operator asked, "Is she conscious?
120
Is she in pain?" And I said, "Yes, she is conscious.
121
She is in a lot of pain." in a lot of pain means it hurts very much.
122
You can also say, "She is in severe pain." Severe means very strong, very serious.
123
Or, if you're describing yourself, "I am in a lot of pain.
124
Please hurry." You can add "Please hurry" at the end.
125
This is polite but urgent.
126
Please hurry.
127
Yes, exactly like that.
128
I am at location.
129
This is so important.
130
The ambulance needs to find you.
131
The operator asked, "What is your location?" and I looked around fast.
132
We were near the entrance of Central Park on 59th Street.
133
So I said, "I am near the entrance of Central Park on 59th Street.
134
There is a fountain nearby." He did so well.
135
The operator said, "Thank you.
136
Help is on the way." And I felt such relief.
137
Key phrase, help is on the way.
138
This is what they say when the ambulance is coming.
139
It means, the ambulance is coming to you.
140
Such beautiful words in a scary moment.
141
Yes.
142
Okay, practice your location phrases.
143
I am at the corner of Main Street and Park Avenue.
144
I am in front of a supermarket.
145
I am inside a shopping mall near the food court.
146
Look around you right now, just as practice, how would you describe where you are?
147
"Stay with me.
148
Help is coming." While Tom was on the phone, he was also talking to me, keeping me calm.
149
I said, "Stay with me, Lily.
150
Help is coming.
151
You're going to be okay." Huh.
152
I was so scared.
153
But those words really helped.
154
This phrase, stay with me, is used when someone is hurt and you want them to stay conscious.
155
Stay awake.
156
Stay focused.
157
You also hear this in movies.
158
Stay with me, don't close your eyes.
159
Very dramatic.
160
But in real life, it works.
161
And you can also say, "You're going to be okay.
162
The ambulance is coming.
163
Just breathe.
164
Stay calm." These are calming phrases for the person who is hurt, very important.
165
Can you describe the symptoms?
166
After the ambulance arrived, the paramedics asked us questions.
167
A paramedic is the medical professional who comes in the ambulance.
168
The paramedic said, "Can you describe her symptoms?" Symptoms, this is a very important medical word,
169
symptoms are the signs of a problem, what you feel, what you see.
170
For example, symptoms can be pain, swelling, dizziness, bleeding, difficulty breathing,
171
high fever, I said, "My ankle is swollen and the pain is very bad.
172
I cannot put weight on it." Put weight on it means you can't stand on it.
173
You can't use it to support your body.
174
Other useful symptom phrases: He is having trouble breathing.
175
She has a very high fever.
176
He is bleeding from his head.
177
She feels dizzy and nauseous.
178
So many useful phrases in one lesson!
179
And we are just getting started.
180
Do you have any allergies?
181
The paramedic also asked, "Does she have any allergies?
182
Is she on any medication?" Allergies.
183
This is when your body reacts badly to something, like certain foods, medicines, or plants.
184
For example, "I am allergic to penicillin." Penicillin is a type of medicine.
185
Or, "She has no known allergies." No known allergies is a very common phrase in medical situations.
186
It means, as far as we know, no allergies.
187
And, "medication." This means medicine: pills, injections, treatments.
188
pressure, or "No, she doesn't take any medication." Write these down.
189
These are real questions you will hear from real paramedics.

Wir zeigen Ihnen, welche Sätze und Ausdrücke wichtig sind, um in einer kritischen Situation schnell und klar zu kommunizieren. Nach dieser Lektion werden Sie in der Lage sein, einfachen englischen Dialog zu führen, wenn Sie Hilfe brauchen. Diese Fähigkeiten sind entscheidend, besonders wenn Sie reisen oder in einem englischsprachigen Umfeld leben.

Übungstipps

Um Ihre Fähigkeiten im Englischen zu verbessern, empfehlen wir Ihnen, Englisch Shadowing zu praktizieren. Hören Sie den Dialog in der Lektion und versuchen Sie, die Sätze gleichzeitig nachzusprechen. Achten Sie dabei auf die Intonation und den Rhythmus des Sprechens. Verwenden Sie die Technik des shadowspeak, indem Sie die Wörter sofort nach dem Sprecher wiederholen, ohne sie vorzudenken. Dies hilft Ihnen, Ihre Aussprache zu verbessern und schneller zu sprechen.

Die Geschwindigkeit des Videos ist langsamer und klar genug, um Ihnen das Nachsprechen zu erleichtern. Üben Sie regelmäßig, um Ihre shadow speech zu verfeinern, und verwenden Sie die wichtigen Vokabeln und Sätze, die Sie gelernt haben. Dies trägt nicht nur zu einem besseren Verständnis bei, sondern gibt Ihnen auch das Vertrauen, das Sie benötigen, um in echten Notfällen zu kommunizieren.

Erinnern Sie sich daran, dass Wiederholung der Schlüssel zur Beherrschung einer Sprache ist. Versuchen Sie, die gefundenen Sätze mehrmals laut auszusprechen. Je mehr Sie üben, desto mehr wird sich Ihre Fähigkeit zur Kommunikation in der englischen Sprache verbessern.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
