1
If you want to be fluent in English, dream in English.
2
But how?
3
They say that dreaming in English is the strongest sign of fluency.
4
So, in today's video, I'm going to break down what it takes for you to dream in English with easy, practical exercises.
5
The more English your brain processes during the day,
6
the more it shows up at night.
7
So photo chit chat is an easy exercise that I like to practice
8
and I like to give to my students to practice to get in the habit of speaking English.
9
Here's how it works.
10
Pick any pic from your camera roll.
11
Then set a 30 second timer.
12
for 30 seconds.
13
The only rule is don't stop.
14
Here are some talking points to help you speak.
15
You can talk about the setting of the photo,
16
the character in the photo,
17
the colours, shapes, and textures,
18
and finally how the photo makes you feel.
19
Dive into your emotions.
20
What memory does the photo bring up for you?
21
I took this photo on a jetty,
22
which is like a wooden pier that juts out into the sea.
23
In this photo you can see Chang jumping on the right-hand side of the image.
24
She's wearing a white vest holding a yellow fan and wearing a light pastel yellow skirt.
25
The skirt is frilly and flowy.
26
There are some boats on the water and they are red and blue.
27
This photo makes me feel a sense of joy and freedom when I look at it.
28
When you see a street sign that you like,
29
snap a picture and then make a sentence using one word from that picture.
30
For example, a puppet is a moveable creature,
31
usually controlled by a human,
32
who we call the puppeteer.
33
Now the puppet can be a human,
34
an animal, or some kind of creature,
35
and it's controlled by wooden rods and it's usually on strings,
36
so the puppeteer moves its arms and legs.
37
Now, I'm going to make a sentence using the word puppet.
38
The master puppeteer controlled the puppet and made his arms and legs move and dance.
39
I'm not sure.
40
Believe there is good in the world.
41
To believe means to think something is true or to feel that something is possible.
42
So, my example sentence.
43
I believe that I can grow every day.
44
I believe in the power of my mind and that if I invest in my education and knowledge,
45
I can succeed.
46
If you don't have English signs where you live, then that's fine.
47
You can translate the signs with your phone and then do the exercise as I just showed you.
48
Oh and by the way,
49
if you haven't already, then translate your phone's language into English.
50
Thank me later.
51
Now if we want to dream in English,
52
what's the one thing that we need need to do every day.
53
Mmm.
54
When you're walking around, quietly narrate what you see around you.
55
Not translating from your language,
56
but just observing and expressing what you see in your English thoughts.
57
This looks like a vintage clothes shop.
58
I like the mannequins outside.
59
I like their wooden arms.
60
Hmm, that skirt's nice.
61
Right, moving on.
62
The next way to think in English is to compliment strangers.
63
Silently.
64
Look at people around you and find one genuine English compliment for them.
65
For example, I like this couple riding the pedicab pedicab.
66
They look like a beautiful couple.
67
Beautiful.
68
Thank you.
69
He looks like a positive guy.
70
He's putting his thumbs up to me.
71
This man who was holding a bag of plants looks peaceful and happy.
72
When you focus on the good in others,
73
you build a more positive mindset,
74
which often reflects back in how people treat you.
75
Now, I'm feeling good.
76
This is a beautiful I want to teach you some English using the world around me.
77
So, I am next to a plant,
78
and this plant has many green leaves.
79
Behind that, there is a Panasonic fan.
80
This is an electric fan, and it's not on.
81
This fan is on.
82
This is the sign of the cafe we are in, Namia.
83
Beneath it, there are some decorations.
84
Gold and green tinsel is hanging from the doorframe.
85
It looks pretty.
86
Over here, we have a red and cream lantern with flowers on the side.
87
These are Chinese characters.
88
The decorations inside are very aesthetic.
89
There are posters on the wall.
90
Here, the barista is taking the tea towel off the coffee machine.
91
A small wicker chair is sitting on a colourful tiled floor.
92
By the way, wicker is woven by hand,
93
which means someone carefully cross the pieces over and under each other.
94
This is a tin, or a can,
95
of pineapple juice with a paper straw.
96
Time to sip.
97
That's refreshing.
98
Now, for my next practical tip to improve your English,
99
it's to go to an English-speaking country and speak with a native every day.
100
Oh, but wait, that's not easy.
101
So, my friends, I have built a roleplay exercise with J.I.,
102
who is an AI version of me,
103
who can help you practice English-speaking scenarios like being in a cafe,
104
like going to a job interview,
105
or any custom roleplay scenario that you would like to speak about.
106
This is a wonderful way to practice your English and speak with a native speaker every day.
107
You can download the app or go to sproutlanguage.com and try J.I for seven days completely free.
108
The next idea is to keep a dream book,
109
which is a small notebook like this one,
110
by the side of your bed so that when you wake up you can open it and write down
111
words or sentences from your dreams.
112
Now if you can't remember your dreams you can just write any sentence or word that comes to your head.
113
Another exercise that you can practice is the what-if questions.
114
What if the sky was red?
115
What if a cat got up on its hind legs and started walking and talking?
116
Tonight we eat mice.
117
What if you could become fluent in English just in one month.
118
These what-if questions get you thinking about possibility.
119
What is possible?
120
Anything.
121
I would recommend that you carry a small notebook like this so that it can fit in your pocket wherever you go.
122
You never know when a new English word or a wonderful idea may appear.
123
You don't dream in a language you study.
124
You dream in a language that you feel.
125
The words that you learn during a funny,
126
scary or moving moment will stick in your memory better than any textbook exercise ever will.
127
You can watch comedy shows that make you laugh.
128
My personal favorite is a show called Peep Show which is a British comedy and that's perfect for advanced learners.
129
You can also watch nature documentaries on the BBC.
130
David Attenborough would be my recommendation.
131
You can listen to podcasts about topics that you love or read books about topics that you love.
132
Sorry, just got interrupted by some music there.
133
But speaking of music, you can use music that genuinely moves you.
134
My favorite band is called the Red Hot Chili Peppers,
135
and I would recommend the album Stadium Arcadium.
136
It's musically wonderful, and again,
137
you can learn from the lyrics,
138
especially if you open up Spotify on your phone and you read the lyrics as you're listening to the music.
139
Now, I am sitting on a metal bench.
140
The sun is shining, it's hot,
141
so I've got my sunglasses.
142
In England, in Britain, we call sunglasses sunnies and they are plural.
143
A pair of sunnies.
144
I'm putting my sunnies on my face.
145
A lot of my students say that they feel more confident when speaking English,
146
almost like they have a different personality.
147
Is the same true for you?
148
Pause this video now and let me know in the comments.
149
Do you feel more confident when you speak English?
150
Like you have a different language personality?
151
I'm curious.
152
I just bought this broly because it's hot.
153
And a broly is an umbrella in British English.
154
Right now I'm being patient.
155
I'm patiently waiting on this bench bench and patiently waiting to become fluent in English.
156
They say it takes around 6 to 18 months to become fluent in English,
157
however I think that you can do it in 6 if you start the habit today and practice immersing yourself in English.
158
Now if you're looking for a place to do that,
159
to practice immersing yourself in English,
160
then I built a website and an app called sproutlanguage.com which you can download,
161
link in the description.
162
It's an all-in-one place to to immerse yourself in English.
163
Thank you for watching.
164
I hope this video was useful.

Download Sprouts, and I will see you in the next one.

Warum sollte man mit diesem Video sprechen üben?

Das Üben des Sprechens ist ein entscheidender Schritt auf dem Weg zur fließenden Beherrschung der englischen Sprache. Diese Videoaufnahme bietet nicht nur praktische Übungen, sondern erinnert uns auch daran, dass das Träumen in Englisch als ein starkes Zeichen für Fluenz gilt. Indem du aktiv mit deinem Gedächtnis und deinen Emotionen spielst, baust du eine tiefere Verbindung zur Sprache auf. Die gezeigten Übungen ermöglichen es dir, deinen Wortschatz zu erweitern und deine Gedanken auf Englisch auszudrücken, was sowohl deine Sprachgewandtheit als auch dein Selbstvertrauen steigert. Englisch lernen mit YouTube ist eine hervorragende Möglichkeit, um diese Fähigkeiten zu entwickeln.

Grammatik und Ausdrücke im Kontext

Die im Video verwendeten Strukturen bieten wertvolle Einblicke in die englische Grammatik und Ausdrucksweise:

  • „I believe that...“ - Diese Struktur wird verwendet, um persönliche Überzeugungen auszudrücken und ist sehr nützlich, um eigene Meinungen zu formulieren.
  • „You can talk about...“ - Diese Formulierung ermutigt Gesprächsführungen und gibt Hinweise, wie man Gespräche strukturiert.
  • „When you see...“ - Diese zeitliche Konjunktion hilft, Bedingungssätze zu bilden, die für das Erklären von Aktionen oder Situationen wichtig sind.
  • „This photo makes me feel...“ - Hier wird die Verwendung von Emotionen in der Sprache betont, was das Gespräch lebendiger macht und es einfacher macht, sich mit dem Gesprächspartner zu verbinden.

Das Üben dieser Strukturen kann dazu beitragen, deine Englische Aussprache zu verbessern und flüssiger zu sprechen.

Gemeinsame Aussprachefallen

Im Video gibt es einige Wörter und Ausdrücke, die besonders knifflig sein können:

  • Puppet - Das Wort wird häufig falsch ausgeprochen, wenn der Laut „u“ in der Mitte überhört wird. Achte darauf, den Laut klar zu artikulieren.
  • Believe - Hier gibt es oft Schwierigkeiten mit dem langen „i“ Ton. Praktiziere diesen Laut, um sicherzustellen, dass er deutlich hörbar ist.
  • Character - Das „ch“ kann in verschiedenen Akzenten unterschiedlich ausgesprochen werden. Obwohl „ch“ im Deutschen weich ist, wird es im Englischen oft härter betont.

Das regelmäßige Üben dieser Wörter im Kontext, sei es durch Shadowing oder individuelle Übungen, hilft dir, deine Englische Aussprache zu verbessern und bereit zu sein, fließend in der Sprache zu kommunizieren. Nutze auch Webseiten für das Shadowing, um deine Fertigkeiten gezielt zu trainieren.

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.
