Okay, we're on the streets of Krakow in hunt for a Polish meal.
184
By the way, right in front of our hotel, which is literally there, is the Royal Castle, dating back about 500 years.
185
So on our doorstep, there's a lot of history.
186
Anyway, I want to show Kat a place.
187
It's this old hotel from the communist days, like 50 years ago, which is still,
188
well, it's basically derelict, but they've converted it into, like, restaurants and bars.
189
I went there a couple years ago, awesome place.
190
Let's get some food there and a couple drinks.
191
Still enjoying the vibes of Poland, Katarina.

253
Right.
254
We've been doing our research and we have now found the worst rated hotel here in Krakow.
255
There's quite a lot of them.
256
But the worst one is about a 20 minute drive away from the old town near the airport.
257
And it's called Hotel Daisy.
258
Now, to be honest, the photos of the place look alright.
259
But the reviews of the place are shocking.
260
All red.
261
All terrible.
262
All slagging the place off.
263
But I've been looking at the photos and it looks alright to be fair and it's even got a swimming pool, a sauna and it's got this, an ice rink.
264
That's right, I'm going to go ice skating tonight if it's open.
265
So you're not laughing now are you Kat?
266
Because you love to ice skate.
267
Yeah I do, but on Christmas markets, not on the hotel.
268
I can't believe it's got an ice rink.
269
I don't even know if I'm allowed to use it.
270
But I'm gonna try i'm definitely gonna have a little cheeky swim
271
so yeah by the way i forgot to reveal the price of last night's hotel
272
which is right there we paid 200 pound per night
273
which is all right to be fair i mean it's a bit pricey
274
but here in the old town right next to the iconic
275
castle 200 pound a night pretty good tonight's hotel is 37 pound i think i paid pretty cheap
276
so let's see what it gets you shall shall we the

292
Okay, I've asked mate, they dropped me off a bit early so I can suss out the area, see if there's any restaurants or shops nearby think there is
293

295
or the hotel doesn't have a restaurant
296

313
I need to whisper because reception is literally there, so you might hear me.
314
It stinks in here, it really really stinks.
315
I need to open a window or something, it smells like no one's been in here for years.
316
It smells like cheesy feet mixed with...
317
I don't know what, it's horrific.
318
Let me open a window.
319
Oh, it's already open.
320
Get that open.
321
What the fuck is that?
322
Okay, let's investigate the bed first of all.
323
Here it is.
324
We've got two to choose from.
325
That's alright that, that's not too bad.
326
Very old as you can see, what's this one like?
327
Dead mosquito?
328
Oh dear.
329
Okay there's a pube there, so I will be sleeping in this one.
330
Oh man, what else can I show you?
331
The roof is covered in dead mosquitoes, a bit of a mould problem.
332
What else we got?
333
Got some cups, we've got a little frame with nothing in it,
334
we've got a cupboard, we've got a TV.
335
Let's investigate the toilet shall we?
336
My goodness.
337
Well that explains the smell.
338
I'm gonna have to change rooms, the smell is too much, it's really really kicked in now and it just stinks of piss.
339
Do you know when you go into like an old people's home and it just stinks of like piss and other things?
340
It smells identical to that, like it's too much.
341
It smells like someone has pissed on the floor
342
and it's been left there for weeks and not been cleaned up
343
so i'm gonna have to change rooms also there's a lot of mosquitoes in there
344
and i can't keep the window closed because it's gonna stink
345
so let's change rooms
346
and see what else i get sorry to be a pain do you mind
347
if i swap rooms
348
because there's a bit of um too many mosquitoes mosquitoes um
349

350

351
Okay, good news.
352

353
First floor.
354

355

356
Here we go.
357
Oh, this is much better.
358
instantly 100 times better no smell of piss i can't express
359
how bad the smell was downstairs it was horrific here way
360
better this is my room for the evening let's investigate the
361
bed shall we in room number 12 yet again two beds
362
to choose from this one seems okay let's check out the other one.
363
Yep, this one seems fine as well.
364
I have just noticed what the bed actually is.
365
It's basically a sofa type.
366
It's no mattress.
367
You've got this thing underneath, this orange flimsy thing, then a bed sheet layer, then another bed sheet layer.
368
So feel that?
369
That's like a proper cushion so it's not actually a mattress but looks alright to me.
370
Before we get into the pool I figured we'd call up Katerina and here she is, look.
371
Hello!
372
You're taking a piss, you're in your robe just to dig it in a bit more.
373
Yeah, my chair, my queen chair, look at this one.
374
You're not going to ask me how my hotel is?
375
Hold on.
376
I've just tested the bed, by the way, guys.
377
Listen.
378
Don't know if you can hear that.
379
It's like sitting on a sofa, so I'm basically sleeping on a sofa tonight.
380
Yes, Kat?
381
Show me a room, then.
382

383

389

393
Skating?

398
We have only ping pong.
399
Ping pong?
400
Ping pong.
401
Okay, five quid to use the swimming pool.

411
There's literally people scuba diving in here.
412
This is the swimming pool.
413
I'm only meant to swim with these guys in here.
414
There's three of them.
415
What the fuck?
416
That's the sauna in the corner.
417
Can get in that.
418
And that's the swimming pool with three scuba divers.
419
Good Jesus.
420
Right, I better get my trunks on and join them.
421
Hope they don't kick off with me getting in with them.
422
Sure, it's fine.
423
Or have they rented us out for an hour?
424
We don't know.
425

426
But either way, I've paid.
427
I've paid £4.98.
428
I'm getting in.
429
Fucking hell, it's freezing.
430
Jesus, the reviews are right.
431

434
No way is it 28 in here.
435
Those guys are alright.
436
They've got wetsuits on.
437

Das Szenario: Ein Hotelabenteuer in Polen
Die Konversation im Video spielt in einem lebendigen Setting: Zwei Freunde checken in einem luxuriösen Krakauer Hotel ein und planen einen Vergleich zu einem billigeren Hotel am nächsten Tag. Diese Situation ist ideal, um alltägliche Englischkenntnisse zu trainieren – ob bei der Hotelanmeldung, der Besprechung von Services oder der Beschreibung von Umgebungen. So lernst du nicht nur Vokabeln, sondern auch, wie man in realen Szenarien kommuniziert.
Nützliche Chunks & Collocations
- "Check in": Ein unverzichtbarer Begriff für Reisen. Beispiel: "Let's go check in shall we?" (Lass uns einchecken, oder?) – perfekt für die Anwendung im Hotel oder Flughafen.
- "Living the luxurious life": Ein ausdrucksstarker Satz, um ein luxuriöses Leben zu beschreiben. Nutze ihn, um Emotionen zu transportieren: "Tonight we're living the luxurious life!" (Heute Abend leben wir in Luxus!)
- "Shout out to": Üblich, um jemandem oder etwas zu erwähnen. Beispiel: "Shout out to this hotel" (Ein Lob an dieses Hotel) – ideal für Bewertungen oder Empfehlungen.
- "Can't beat a [something]": Ein idiomatischer Ausdruck, um zu sagen, dass nichts besser ist. "Can't beat a chocolate" (Nichts schlägt eine Schokolade) – einfach und wirkungsvoll in alltäglichen Gesprächen.
Deine Shadowing-Herausforderung
Um deine Englische Aussprache zu verbessern, nutze die Methode "shadow speech": Höre den Abschnitt des Videos, in dem die Freunde das Hotel betreten und das Zimmer beschreiben (ca. 30 Sekunden). Wiederhole sofort nach dem Sprecher, achte auf Intonation und Rhythmus. Wiederhole dies 5–10 Mal, bis du die Wörter flüssig aussprichst. Nutze dazu eine shadowing site oder einfach deinen Laptop – die Praxis macht den Meister! So lernst du nicht nur Vokabeln, sondern auch, wie man selbstsicher spricht. Englisch lernen mit Videos war nie so effektiv: Mit "shadowspeaks" trainierst du wie ein Profi!
Grammatik in diesem Video
Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:
| Struktur | Im Video |
|---|---|
| Present Perfect Continuous have/has been + -ing – eine Handlung, die früher begann und noch andauert | we've been doing · I've been looking · I've been getting |
| „Used to“ used to + Verb – eine frühere Gewohnheit oder ein Zustand, der nicht mehr gilt | used to be |
| Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist | i've been joined · i've ever seen · haven't even looked |
| Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut | i've been joined · we've been greeted · was abandoned |
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.
