Shadowing-Übung: How I Practice English While Cleaning - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

these are latex gloves but then

if you want to use present simple hi everybody welcome back

to my channel today we're doing something very glamorous we are cleaning the house

but while we clean i'm going to show you how many words

and expressions you can actually learn and practice

while doing everyday simple chores we're talking kitchen vocabulary bathroom vocabulary

living room vocabulary uh different tenses present simple past simple present perfect present perfect continuous

and you're practicing all this while getting things done at home.

It's a win -win.

Okay so let's get to work.

So I got my cleaning supplies ready here so what you want to do is name every single object that you have.

So I have my gloves, I have my dish soap, I have my stove cleaner,

I have my disinfectant and I have my glass cleaner

and then I also have some sponges so i'm going to start cleaning now

and i'm going to narrate everything i'm doing so

if you want you can repeat after me or shadow me

so then you're a little bit more comfortable

when you have to do it yourself okay i am putting

my gloves on these are latex gloves i am clearing the counter

so i could wipe underneath everything as you go you can also name everything you have I have coconut oil, I have peanut butter, I have honey,

I have ground flaxseed, I have my magnesium, I have my coffee pods and so on.

I am also going to wipe underneath the kitchen appliances so I'm gonna move them aside.

I am unplugging the toaster and I am unplugging the coffee machine.

Now I am wiping the counter and do you notice how we're using a lot of present continuous?

We are doing something.

But if you want to practice present simple for example

that would be things that you do every day or things that you do every week or every month.

So for example I try to clean this counter every day but I wipe underneath appliances every week or so.

And keep in mind most words

that you would use inside your house can be used outside your house too in other contexts

because English is just flexible like that.

So for example

if you have a dirty stove in your kitchen you can use the word dirty in

so many other contexts dirty screen dirty jokes dirty mouth dirty business dirty look dirty jobs dirty money

and a lot of other things

that can be actually soiled like dirty dirty now i am unloading the dishwasher

because i washed these dishes last night so i'm taking the bowls out

and putting them in the cupboard where they belong

and as you unload the dishwasher it's always good to just name every single object

that you take out you might not know what it's called

for example this is a lid i have another lid here

i have a wooden spoon a mug a ramekin a tiny ramekin

and then of course i have knives spoons forks

and teaspoons now i am loading the dishwasher with dirty dishes

and dirty glasses and dirty cutlery and dirty bowls

and dirty pots now i just cooked in this pan

so i'm going to soak it so i'm going to put some water in it

and let the water sit

so then it's easier to clean i am taking the garbage out

and then i'm going to take the recyclables out

which is going to be sorted into paper plastic

and glass can you actually take the garbage out also as

you're cleaning make sure you can name all the objects around you.

For example, apron, oven, microwave, tap, sponge, cutting board, kitchen towel, oven mittens.

Okay, now I'm going to open the vent hood

and then I'll open the window so we get some air draft going on just to refresh the air in the room.

Opening the windows.

So the point of this activity is for you to practice different expressions.

So then when you just replace the nouns, the verbs, the pronouns in them, you can use the same structures anywhere else.

For example, if you say, I need more paper towels, you can also say, I need more vegetables, or you can say, I need more employees, or I need more ink.

So you're not technically just practicing house vocabulary.

You're practicing saying these structures really fluently.

I need more.

Connected speech.

Okay, now my kitchen is clean, but before I move to the bathroom, let's take a break and have some coffee together.

How are you?

Can I help you?

So before you do this type of activity like we just did, it's always good to prepare for a few minutes before.

And since I'm on a break, let me tell you the easiest way to do that.

If you have a smartphone, you can do this.

You can use an app like Lerna AI, who is also the sponsor of today's video.

So huge thank you for their support.

You can review different vocabulary words or expressions and warm up by getting on a call with their AI tutor.

What tenses can I use while cleaning my kitchen?

For your plans and routines.

you can use the present simple

and present continuous tenses this will help you feel more relaxed before you do any english speaking

so that's why i recommend doing this before an interview for example

or before going to work or before any conversations

that you might have in english and this app has a role play feature

and you can practice different scenarios both in casual

or formal settings this is like going to the gym you need to stretch

and warm up before you do the actual workout

so it's not painful and awkward you can do this

while you're on the train while you're having lunch

or you're getting ready

but still have it in a structured progress tracking format hey lerna you know

that sponge used to apply makeup what's it called

that sponge is commonly called a beauty blender or makeup sponge

and if your 2026 resolution is to learn english

or to get better at english all you have to do

is just do these small activities with lerna every day and just stay consistent.

They also want to support you and your goals, so they're offering this exclusive new year promotion code for my online community.

116

This is my SPF and moisturizer.

117

This is a CC cream.

118

I have a pair of tweezers here.

119

I have my deodorant, my hair oils.

120

I'm wiping the sink and wiping the tap.

121

Wiping the tap.

122

Wiping the tap.

127

Wiping the tap.

128

This is a drain.

130

Now I'm going to refill the cotton pad and q -tip holders.

131

I'm opening the plastic bag and I'm taking the q -tips out and I'm putting the lid back on the holder.

132

Now I am disinfecting the toilet seat.

133

I'm being pretty vulnerable right now.

134

I'm like literally showing you my toilet.

135

I will also apply the toilet bowl cleaner just around the toilet bowl.

136

Okay I hate the smell of bleach but

137

when it smells like bleach it smells clean so I have a love -hate relationship with this smell.

138

Okay now for the shower part

139

when you're in the shower make sure you actually name everything you have around you like every product every tool

140

that you use for example I have soap

141

and I have a soap holder

142

and then I have shower gel I have a face wash

143

I have a shampoo I have a conditioner then we have a shower head then I have a scrubbing glove

144

and then is this called a squeegee I have to look that up squeegee squeegee.

145

I think it's a squeegee.

146

And then these are tiles and they are marble tiles, not real marble, but marble design tiles.

147

And this is a drain that is used to catch, you know, hair and random things.

148

This is a hook where I hang my towels on.

149

This is a bathrobe and this is a bath towel.

150

I just replaced the towels.

151

So these are clean towels.

152

I'm just going to fold them

153

and place them on the towel holder sometimes i put my clothes here

154

when i change or i get dressed

155

so super convenient to have this thing i also have two bath mats here i have one near the shower

156

and i have one here near the sink okay now i'm gonna do some laundry

157

so i'm gonna take a detergent pod

158

and put it inside the washing machine this goes in first

159

and then i'm taking whatever I need to wash out of the hamper.

160

This is a hamper and put it in the washing machine as well.

161

Now in the dryer you have to clean the lint filter which is this one right here.

162

You open it and there's going to be a lot of lint.

163

Now let's say while you're doing all this cleaning you have some words that you don't know or you can't remember.

164

Make a mental note and after the activity go

165

and look them up

166

and then next time you're going to do the activity you're going to have this mini vocabulary bank for that room, for that activity.

167

And then the same goes with your passive vocabulary.

168

You'll be surprised by how many words you thought you knew, but when you need them in very simple day -to -day activities around your house,

169

you don't know exactly how to say them.

170

Like for example, phrasal verbs, you know, like take off, take out, put on.

171

If you like this style of videos, please let me know in the comments.

172

I can do more routines.

173

Grammatik in diesem Video

Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:

Struktur	Im Video
Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut	can be actually soiled · be sorted
Möglichkeit mit „might / may“ might/may + Verb – etwas ist möglich, aber nicht sicher	might not know · might have
Verb + -ing enjoy, keep, stop … + -ing – Verben, auf die die -ing-Form folgt	start cleaning · enjoy watching
Present Continuous am/is/are + -ing – etwas, das gerade jetzt oder zurzeit passiert	we're doing · we're talking · you're practicing

Aussprache, auf die du achten solltest

Der Sprecher verwendet 51 Kurzformen und abgeschwächte Formen, zum Beispiel I'm, you're, gonna. Sprich sie in der kurzen Form, so wie du sie hörst.

Die „th“-Laute: underneath /ˌʌndɚˈniθ/, bath /bɑːθ/, cloth /klɒθ/, bathrobe /ˈbæθ.ɹoʊb/
Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: shelf /ʃɛlf/, wash /wɑʃ/, dish /dɪʃ/, shadow /ˈʃædəʊ̯/, promotion /pɹəˈmoʊʃn̩/
Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, continuous /kənˈtɪn.juː.əs/, technically /ˈtɛk.nɪˌkəl.i/, ventilation /ˌvɛntɪˈleɪʃ(ə)n/, conditioner /kənˈdɪʃənə/

Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:

/w/ — mit runden Lippen, nicht wie das deutsche „w“ (/v/): wipe /waɪp/, wash /wɑʃ/, wooden /ˈwʊdn̩/, awkward /ˈɔk.wɚd/, workout /ˈwɝk.aʊ̯t/
Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: glove /ɡlʌv/, sponge /spʌnd͡ʒ/, garbage /ˈɡɑɹ.bɪd͡ʒ/, verb /vɝb/, stove /stoʊv/
/æ/ — offener als „ä“: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, format /ˈfɔːɹ.mæt/, shadow /ˈʃædəʊ̯/, relax /ɹɪˈlæks/, casual /ˈkæʒ(u)əl/

So übst du mit diesem Video

Höre dir das ganze Video einmal an, ohne zu sprechen, und notiere die Wörter, die du nicht kennst.
Beginne mit 0,75-facher Geschwindigkeit, sprich Satz für Satz nach und wechsle zur normalen Geschwindigkeit, sobald es leichtfällt.
Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie wipe, towel, vocabulary.

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.
