But instead of sympathy, Nigel tells her that Miranda isn't picking on her, She's just doing her job.
6
It's a harsh wake -up call that forces Andy to confront the reality of her situation.
7
Wake up call, give credit, pick on.

9
that we created for this lesson when you watch it on the RealLife app.
10
And you can unlock this lesson for free and get a much better learning experience right now.
11
by clicking the link in the description below.
12
I'll tell you more about it later, but now, This is how the lesson will work.
13
First, we will watch the clip with the subtitles.
14
Then you'll learn the key vocabulary and pronunciation.
15
And finally, at the end, you'll test your comprehension by watching the entire scene one last time, this time without subtitles.
16
And I'll ask you some quiz questions to see how well you've understood.
17
everything.
18
So let's now watch the first clip.
19
- - She hates me, Nigel.
20
And that's my problem because...
21
Oh, wait, no. It's not my problem.
22
I don't know what else I can do because if I do something right, it's unacknowledged.
23
She doesn't even say thank you.
24
But if I do something wrong, she is...
25
Vicious! So quit.
26
What?
27
Quit.
28
- Okay.
29
I can get another girl to take your job in five minutes.
30
One who really wants it.
31
I -I -No, I don't want to quit.
32
That's not fair.
33
But I, you know, I'm just saying that
34
I would just like a little credit for the fact that I'm killing myself trying.
35
Ugh, Andy. Be serious.
36
You are not trying.
37
You are whining.
38
What is it that you want me to say to you, huh?
39
Do you want me to say, "Poor you"?
40
Miranda's picking on you.
41
Poor you.
42
Poor Andy.
43
Mm?
44
"Wake up, Six.
45
She's just doing her job." Andy's pouring her heart out here,
46
and every word she uses perfectly captures that feeling of being trapped in a toxic work situation.
47
Let's break down these expressions that native speakers reach for when there is their breaking point.
48
She hates me, Nigel.
49
And that's my problem because...
50
Oh, wait, no, it's not my problem.
51
I don't know what else I can do because if I do something right, it's unacknowledged.
52
She doesn't even say thank you.
53
When something goes unacknowledged, it's like it never happened.
54
Nobody notices, nobody says "good job" or gives you credit.
55
It's the opposite of being acknowledged or appreciated.
56
Check out this example of someone getting their hard work acknowledged.
57
And thanks for acknowledging me earlier.
58
It's nice for my mother when I'm mentioning papers.
59
Now, how do you pronounce this word?
60
Check out how Andy says it.
61
She is vicious.
62
Many learners mistakenly pronounce the C here as an S sound.
63
Make sure you say "vicious" with a clear "sh" sound, not "vices".
64
"Vicious" means extremely cruel or aggressive.
65
A vicious person doesn't just criticize, they attack you personally.
66
So when Andy says "Miranda is vicious", she's saying Miranda insults her when she
67
Andy gets things wrong.
68
Check out this other example.
69
- Okay.
70
Yeah.
71
Vicious.
72
Now, let's practice some connected speech.
73
This is how natives cut, reduce, and morph words together when they speak.
74
Learning it helps you sound more natural and it makes it much easier to understand fast speaking natives in real conversations.
75
Listen to this part again.
76
ease out.
77
doesn't even try to repeat after Andy.
78
She doesn't even say thank you.
79
She doesn't even say thank you. So quit.
80
What?
81
Thank you.
82
Quit.
83
Crack.
84
I can get another girl to take your job in five minutes.
85
One who really wants it.
86
No, I don't want to quit.
87
That's not fair.
88
And here, there is a common pattern of reduction that natives use all the time.
89
Listen to how Andy says "I don't want to quit".
90
I don't want to quit.
91
That's not fair.
92
I don't want to becomes I don't wanna.
93
I don't wanna quit.
94
Now you try it.
95
I don't want to quit.
96
That's not fair.
97
I don't want to quit.
98
That's not fair.
99
But I, you know, I'm just saying that
100
I would just like a little credit for the fact that I'm killing myself trying.
101
Andy says she wants a little credit.
102
What do you think that means?
103
She wants a raise.
104
She wants someone to say thank you.
105
She wants a day off.
106
In this context, credit means recognition or appreciation.
107
When someone gives you credit, it's like they are saying "Hey, I see what you did there" and it mattered.
108
For example, if you and a friend cook dinner together, but everyone only compliments your friend, You might feel like you didn't get credit for your part.
109
Now, this is a really great phrase native use all the time, and you definitely sound natural yourself, using it too.
110
But the question is, do you think you'll remember this expression later, when you need it?
111
I mean, this is a quite common situation for many English learners.
112
You get into a conversation and right when you need to use a certain expression you've learned before, It doesn't come to you.
113
Your brain? simply goes blank then you pause try to remember
114
But the flow of your sentence has already been ruined because you got stuck.
115
I know that feels so good really frustrating to don't be able to express yourself the way you would like.
116
I've been there myself.
117
And that is exactly why we created the RealLife English app to help you become a confident natural English speaker.
118
By practicing with these lessons, the way they were meant to be.
119
Yeah on the app.
120
Every lesson like this one with movies, TV series, podcasts, It comes with a fool transcript and flashcards of the most advanced expressions.
121
You know, all of this that we've been seeing.
122
And by practicing just 10 -15 minutes daily, you'll be able to remember the words and expressions you are learning
123
forever This happens because of the spaced repetition technology we developed, which lets you review words just when you're about to forget them.
124
Can you imagine being able to use all this vocabulary in your next real -life conversation in English?
125
And you can unlock this lesson you're watching right now for free,
126
which comes with all the resources I've mentioned by clicking the link in the description below using your phone.
127
I'll see you there.
128
But I, you know, I'm just saying that, I would just like a little credit for the fact that I'm killing myself trying.
129
That's a dramatic way to say she's working extremely hard.
130
When someone says, "I'm killing myself trying," they don't literally mean dying, of course.
131
She means she's pushing herself to the absolute limit of working so hard it's exhausting and painful.
132
Check out this other example.
133
Look, Dana, I think I was doing a great job.
134
At least I was killing myself trying to.
135
- Andy, be serious.
136
You are not trying.
137
You are whining.
138
- To whine is to complain in that annoying, high -pitched way that makes people want to cover their ears.
139
Think of a small child saying, But I don't want to go to bed.
140
It's not fair.
141
That's whining.
142
When adults whine, they sound like they're feeling sorry for themselves instead of taking action.
143
Nigel's basically saying "stop complaining and do something about it".
144
See this other example: They're getting remarried and Spen still doesn't even remember me.
145
Rosie, may I give you some advice?
146
Stop whining.
147
I don't whine.
148
Yes, you do.
149
And if you really want to win him back, do something about it.
150
What is it that you want me to say to you, huh?
151
Do you want me to say, "Poor you"?
152
Miranda's picking on you.
153
Poor you.
154
Poor Andy.
155
Now, poor you can be genuine sympathy.
156
Like when your friend gets sick and you say, "Oh, poor you.
157
That sounds awful." But Nigel's being sarcastic here.
158
He's mocking Andy for "playing the victim".
159
And to pick on someone means to criticize
160
and target them unfairly like a bully who always chooses the same kid to tease.
161
Andy feels like Miranda is picking on her, but Nigel is challenging that.
162
And honestly, This is a very thin line, right?
163
Between picking on someone and trying to motivate them.
164
It's what happens in this example.
165
Well, you better decide how badly you want it
166
because this school is filled with people who will do whatever Necessary to make it in this business.
167
Why are you picking on me?
168
I'm not I'm motivating you.
169
Oh Hmm?
170
Wake up, six.
171
She's just doing her job.
172
This "wake up" has nothing to do with sleep.
173
It means "open your eyes to reality" or "stop being naive." Nigel's telling Andy to face the truth about her situation.
174
And then he calls her "six." That's a reference to her clothing size.
175
saying, "You don't even feed into this world physically, let alone professionally.
176
That was tough to watch wasn't it?
177
But sometimes we need someone to tell us the hard truth.
178
That's exactly what happens next, as we see the beginning of End is transformation.
179
Let's watch it.
180
This is a shining beacon of hope for...
181
Thank you.
182
Oh, I don't know.
183
Let's say a young boy growing up in Rhode Island with six brothers pretending to go to soccer practice
184
when he was really going to sewing class and reading Runway under the covers at night with a flashlight.
185
You have no idea how many legends have walked these halls, and what's worse, You don't care.
186
Because this place where so many people would die to work, you only deign to work.
187
And you want to know why she doesn't kiss you on the forehead.
188
and give you a gold star.
189
on your homework at the end of the day.
190
Wake up, sweetheart.
191
Thank you.
192
- Okay, so I'm screwing it up.
193
- - I don't want to.
194
I just wish that I knew what I could do to...
195
Nigel.
196
you No. I don't know what you expect me to do.
197
There's nothing in this whole closet that'll fit a size 6, I can guarantee you.
198
These are all sample sizes, 2 and 4.
199
All right, we'll turn this for you. And...
200
I'm Honcho.
201
You'll take what I give you and you'll like it.
202
This is where Nigel opens his heart and shows Andy and us why this world means everything to him.
203
The vocabulary here gets more sophisticated, more emotional.
204
You think this is just a magazine?
205
Hmm?
206
This is not just a magazine.
207
This is a shining beacon of hope for...
208
A beacon is like a lighthouse, a bright light that guides ships safely to shore, but they're lost at sea.
209
So a shining beacon of hope is something that gives people direction and inspiration when they feel lost or different.
210
For Nigel, this fashion magazine wasn't just pretty pictures.
211
It was proof that there was a place in the world for someone like him.
212
She's not a leader.
213
She just wants to save her own skin.
214
It's as simple as that.
215
I think that's true.
216
She's become a beacon of hope for the rebellion.
217
And she has to be eliminated.
218
Oh, I don't know.
219
Let's say a young boy growing up in Rhode Island with six brothers pretending to go to soccer practice
220
when he was really going to sewing class and reading Runway under the covers at night with a flashlight.
221
Now, Rhode Island is a small, more conservative state in this region of the US called New England.
222
You can imagine, for a young boy there, interested in fashion and sewing, using needle and thread to create clothes, life could feel pretty lonely.
223
And the word "runway" here doesn't refer to the platform where models walk, it's the name of the fashion magazine where they work.
224
You have no idea how many legends have walked these halls, and what's worse, You don't care.
225
Because this place where so many people would die to work, you only deign to work.
226
What do you think it means if someone deigns to work?
227
They are excited and proud to do the job?
228
They are too good for this job, but do it anyway.
229
or they're working harder than usual.
230
When someone deigns to do something, they act like this task is beneath them.
231
Imagine a famous chef agreeing to make you a peanut butter sandwich.
232
They'll do it, but they want you to know they're way too good for this simple task.
233
So when Nigel says Andy deigns to work there, he means she acts like the job is beneath her,
234
like she's blessing them with her presence instead of appreciating the opportunity.
235
And you want to know why she doesn't kiss you on the forehead.
236
and give you a gold star on your homework at the end of the day.
237
wake up sweetheart a gold star in your homework is what teachers give to little kids
238
when they do well now when nigel calls andy sweetheart it's not romantic
239
or even friendly it's talking down to her like saying oh honey in a way
240
that means you poor ignorant thing after hearing all this andy finally admits she's screwing it up okay
241
so i'm screwing it up to screw something up is are ruining something through your own mistakes.
242
You're messing it up or failing at something.
243
I don't know what you expect me to do.
244
There's nothing in this whole closet that'll fit a size six, I can guarantee you.
245
These are all sample sizes, two and four.
246
In the fashion industry, sample sizes are the tiny sizes, usually 0, 2 or 4, that designers use for their original pieces and runway shirts.
247
Most clothes in fashion magazines are shot on models who wear these incredibly small sizes.
248
All right, we'll turn this for you. And...
249
A poncho.
250
Here's what a traditional poncho looks like.
251
It's a loose sleeveless outer garment, basically a blanket with a hole for your head.
252
While some can be stylish, many look shapeless and bulky, which might explain Andy's reaction to the jacket.
253
Alright, now let's test your comprehension.
254
We're going to watch the entire clip again without subtitles and I'll ask you some quiz questions to see how well
255
He understood everything.
256
- She hates me, Nigel.
257
And that's my problem because...
258
Oh, wait, no. It's not my problem.
259
I don't know what else I can do, because if I do something right, it's unacknowledged.
260
She doesn't even say thank you.
261
But if I do something wrong, she is...
262
Vicious!
263
Which image best shows someone being vicious?
264
So quit.
265
What?
266
Thank you.
267
Quit?
268
-Fuck.
269
I can get another girl to take your job in five minutes.
270
One who really wants it.
271
No, I don't want to quit.
272
That's not fair.
273
But I, you know, I'm just saying that...
274
I would just like a little credit for the fact that I'm killing myself trying.
275
Which of these expressions are commonly used with the word "credit" in this context?
276
you Ugh, Andy. Be serious.
277
You are not trying.
278
You are whining.
279
What is it that you want me to say to you, huh?
280
Do you want me to say, "Poor you"?
281
Miranda's picking on you.
282
Poor you.
283
Poor Andy.
284
What does "picking on" mean in this sentence?
285
She's always picking on her little brother.
286
you Thank you.
287
Amen you Mm?
288
Wake up, six.
289
She's just doing her job.
290
Thank you.
291
You think this is just a magazine?
292
Hmm?
293
This is not just a magazine.
294
Complete the phrase: "During difficult times, her kindness was like a.. of hope for everyone around her.
295
you This is a shining beacon of hope for...
296
Thank you.
297
Oh, I don't know.
298
Let's say a young boy growing up in Rhode Island with six brothers pretending to go to soccer practice
299
when he was really going to sewing class and reading Runway under the covers at night with a flashlight.
300
You have no idea how many legends have walked these halls, and what's worse, You don't care.
301
Because this place where so many people would die to work, you only deign to work.
302
When someone deigns to do something, it usually means they feel unsure if they can, "Happy to help" or "Too good for it".
303
And you want to know why she doesn't kiss you on the forehead
304
and give you a gold star on your homework at the end of the day.
305
Wake up, sweetheart.
306
Thank you.
307
- Okay, so I'm screwing it up.
308
- - I don't want to.
309
I just wish that I knew what I could do to...
310
Nigel.
311
Nigel.
312
Nigel.
313
Bye.
314
No. I don't know what you're expecting to do.
315
There's nothing in this whole closet that'll fit a size 6, I can guarantee you.
316
These are all sample sizes, 2 and 4.
317
Alright, we'll join this for you.
318
A poncho.
319
You'll take what I give you and you'll like it.
320
Oh yeah, amazing job!
321
Now, remember to go and practice what you learned today on the RealLife English app.
322
You'll find a special link right in the description below.
323
That'll take you straight to this lesson over there.
324
- Okay, now I was at this play that I love so much, I've seen it twice now, "Anne Juliet." So "Anne Juliet" is a play where,
325
what if Juliet didn't die with Romeo?
326
And a lot of it is influenced by Shakespeare's wife, And her name...
327
is Anne Hathaway.
328
Then I did, A little digging.
329
What'd you learn?

Kontext & Hintergrund
In der Szene aus "Der Teufel trägt Prada" sehen wir Andy, die als Assistentin der mächtigen Chefredakteurin Miranda Priestly arbeitet. Obwohl sie ihren Traumjob gewonnen hat, wird sie schnell mit den unerbittlichen Anforderungen und dem hektischen Umfeld der Modewelt konfrontiert. Ihre Bemühungen, sich anzupassen und die Erwartungen zu erfüllen, scheinen von Miranda nicht gewürdigt zu werden, was zu einem emotionalen Höhepunkt führt. Diese Szene beleuchtet die Herausforderungen und Drucksituationen, mit denen viele Menschen am Arbeitsplatz konfrontiert sind, und bietet wertvolle Einblicke in den Umgang mit stressigen Situationen in der Kommunikation.
Top 5 Phrasen für die tägliche Kommunikation
- “She hates me, Nigel.” - Diese Aussage ist ein Ausdruck von Frustration und Unverständnis.
- “I don’t want to quit. That’s not fair.” - Dies zeigt Entschlossenheit und den Wunsch, trotz der Schwierigkeiten durchzuhalten.
- “I would just like a little credit.” - Ein wichtiger Satz, der den Wunsch nach Anerkennung ausdrückt.
- “Quit.” - Ein einfaches, aber kraftvolles Wort, das den Moment der Resignation symbolisiert.
- “Wake up, Six.” - Diese Aufforderung zur Selbstreflexion ist entscheidend, um die harte Realität zu erkennen.
Schritt-für-Schritt Schattenübung
Um die angespannte und dramatische Situation in der Szene effektiv zu meistern und Ihre Englische Aussprache zu verbessern, nutzen Sie die folgende Schattenübung:
- Clip ansehen: Sehen Sie sich den kurzen Clip mit Untertiteln an. Achten Sie besonders auf die Emotionen in den Stimmen der Charaktere.
- Wichtige Vokabeln lernen: Notieren Sie sich die Schlüsselbegriffe und deren Bedeutungen. Versuchen Sie, diese aktiv in Ihrer täglichen Kommunikation zu verwenden.
- Shadow Speak: Spielen Sie den Clip erneut ab und wiederholen Sie die Sätze synchron mit den Charakteren. Versuchen Sie, die Intonation sowie den emotionalen Ausdruck nachzuahmen. Nutzen Sie die Technik des shadow speech, um Ihre Aussprache zu üben.
- Verstehen testen: Schauen Sie sich die gesamte Szene ohne Untertitel an und versuchen Sie, den Inhalt zu erfassen. Stellen Sie sich vor, Sie sind Andy und denken Sie darüber nach, was sie tun würde.
- Reflexion: Überlegen Sie, welche Emotionen Andy erlebt hat und wie Sie in ähnlichen Situationen kommunizieren würden. Schreiben Sie einige Sätze auf, in denen Sie ähnliche Gefühle ausdrücken.
Durch diese Methode können Sie nicht nur Ihre Sprachkenntnisse verbessern, sondern auch lernen, wie man effektiv mit Stress und Herausforderungen umgeht, was besonders wichtig ist, wenn Sie Englisch sprechen üben.

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.
