1
Hi, Estelle?
2
Will you go to the prom with me?
3
I wouldn't go to the prom with you if you were Elliot Gould.
4
Oh, shut down again.
5
Hey, don't worry, Barney.
6
It's a big school.
7
There's got to be a girl nobody else wants to take to the prom.
8
Excuse me, is this room 106?
9
Hey, who's that?
10
I...
11
I don't know.
12
So, uh, what are you in for?
13
I'm a political prisoner.
14
Last time I ever take a stand.
15
Well, I'm here for being me.
16
Every day I show up, act like me, and they slap me in here.
17
Simpson! Be quiet!
18
Aw yeah!
19
Let's learn English with The Simpsons!

27
And all you need is 10 to 15 minutes per day.
28
So try it for free with the link in the description and start getting a bit more fluent every day.
29
Alright, now get ready to see Homer and Marge's second meeting.
30
Hello!
31
Hello?
32
Oh, you may not remember me.
33
I'm Homer Simpson, so um, you wanna go out with me?
34
Well, I don't think you're my type.
35
Look, I'm not asking you to like me.
36
I'm not asking you to put yourself in a position where I can touch your goodies.
37
I'm just asking you to be fair.
38
Well, what's the good word?
39
I'm sorry.
40
What?
41
Well, you seem like a nice enough guy, but I really don't have the time.
42
And I tutor part-time.
43
You tutor?
44
Yes.
45
And anyone who can be tutored?
46
Just those who need help with French.
47
French?
48
What a coincidence.
49
Incidents!
50
Just a subject I'm having trouble with.
51
The very first thing we saw was Homer's friend, Barney, trying to ask a girl named Estelle to prom.
52
And it did not go well.
53
Hey, Estelle, will you go to the prom with me?
54
I wouldn't go to the prom with you if you were Elliot Gould.
55
Oh, shut down again.
56
To get shot down means to be rejected, especially in a romantic situation.
57
The image here is like a plane being hit mid-flight and crashing.
58
Poor Barney, he's been shot down again, which is a regular occurrence in this episode.
59
And Estelle mentioned Elliot Gould.
60
I wouldn't go to the prom with you if you were Elliot Gould!
61
He was a big Hollywood star in the late 1960s and 70s, when Homer and Marge would have been in high school.
62
He was in famous movies like M.A.S.H and The Long Goodbye, but you might recognize him as Monica and Ross' dad in Friends.
63
Well, there's gotta be a girl nobody else wants to take to the prom.
64
By the way, if you're not familiar with American high school culture, prom is a formal dance held at the end of the school year, usually for older students.
65
It's a huge deal in the U.S.
66
People rent fancy clothes and limousines.
67
Being asked to prom, or not being asked, is treated as a major social event.
68
So Homer and Barney are in detention.
69
This is a punishment for students who misbehave.
70
In fact, the intro of every episode shows Bart in detention.
71
Usually you have to stay in school longer studying or completing other tasks.
72
And when Marge walks in, it's love at first sight for Homer.
73
He uses this classic line as an excuse to talk to her.
74
So, well, what are you in for?
75
I'm a political prisoner.
76
What do you think Homer means when he asks, What are you in for?
77
What subject are you studying in school?
78
What do you want to do?
79
Why were you sent to detention?
80
Exactly!
81
This phrase comes straight from prison.
82
It's what you'd ask a fellow prisoner to find out what landed them there.
83
Homer is treating detention like a mini jail.
84
It's a funny way to break the ice with someone new.
85
Listen to these. To take
86
a stand means to firmly defend a belief or position, even when it's difficult or risky.
87
Earlier in the episode, we saw Marge took a stand for feminism by burning her bra.
88
Think of Malala Yousafzai, who took a stand for girls education in Pakistan at just 15 years old, even in the face of serious danger.
89
Here's another example.
90
Next up, Homer explains why he ended up in detention.
91
There are two great expressions for you to learn.
92
Well, I'm here for being me.
93
Every day I show up, act like me and they slap me in here.
94
Simpson!
95
First, to show up simply means to arrive somewhere, to be present.
96
I'm just calling to make sure that you show up at this party tonight.
97
But there's a subtle layer to it.
98
It often suggests doing so consistently, or even when it takes some effort.
99
For example, he always shows up for his friends means more than just being physically there.
100
It means being reliably present.
101
Well, no matter what you have to show up for your kids.
102
Like him.
103
Then Homer said, He slapped me in here.
104
To slap someone in a place means to put them there quickly, often without much thought or care.
105
Like if your boss hands you a huge project last minute, you might say, they just slapped another assignment on my desk.
106
By the way, it's pretty frustrating when they speak fast and you can't understand us, right?
107
Usually it's not actually about speed, rather about connected speech.
108
That's how we cut, reduce, and link our words when speaking fluently.
109
Listen to Marge's first question again.
110
Excuse me, is this room 106?
111
Did you catch that?
112
Instead of a full excuse me, she said, excuse me, excuse me.
113
Marge dropped the first syllable and said all the sounds together as if it were one word.
114
Natives do this all the time.
115
Your speaking will only improve with lots of practice so listen to Marge again and try to say that just like her.
116
Excuse me, is this room 106?
117
Excuse me, is this room 106?
118
Alright, some time passes and Homer looks for Marge because he's smitten or has a crush.
119
He asks her, So, um, you wanna go out with me?
120
Well, I don't think you're my type.
121
To go out with someone means to date them or be in a romantic relationship with them.
122
Depending on context, it can also refer to a single date.
123
We went out last Friday.
124
But she responds, Well, I don't think you're my type.
125
Your type is the kind of person you're naturally attracted to, based on looks, personality, lifestyle, or whatever matters to you.
126
Some people's type is charming and adventurous.
127
Others go for quiet and intellectual.
128
We all have one, even if we can't always define it.
129
But Homer doesn't give up.
130
Look, I'm not asking you to like me, I'm not asking you to put yourself in a position where I can touch your goodies.
131
To put yourself in a position means to place yourself in a situation that's uncomfortable, risky, or compromising.
132
Homer is reassuring Marge he's not asking for anything that would make her feel unsafe.
133
Here's a couple other ways natives use it.
134
You should never put yourself in a position to apologize.
135
So he's put himself in a position where he's gotta lose.
136
I'm not asking you to put yourself in a position where I can touch your goodies.
137
Now, goodies.
138
This is informal slang for intimate parts of the body.
139
It's playful and a little silly, totally Homer style.
140
So, Homer asks Marge to talk to some other people about him, to get some references, like you would if you were applying for a job.
141
Then, he follows up with her in the cafeteria.
142
Well, what's the good word?
143
This is casual, friendly greeting, like, so what's the news?
144
Or any good updates?
145
You'd use it when you're about to hear back on something, and you're hoping for a positive answer.
146
Imagine a friend who just had a job interview.
147
You call them and say, Hey, what's the good word?
148
Unfortunately, Marge is too busy for a boyfriend right now.
149
I'm sorry.
150
What?
151
Well, you seem like a nice enough guy, but I really don't have the time.
152
And I tutor part-time.
153
Part-time means working or doing something for fewer hours than a full schedule.
154
The opposite of full-time.
155
Full-time is typically around 40 hours a week.
156
Part-time might be 10, 15, or 20.
157
In the USA, it's actually common for high school students to take a part-time job.
158
Marge is a French tutor, so Homer takes advantage of this information to tell a little lie.
159
You're a tutor?
160
Yes?
161
And anyone can be tutored?
162
Just those who need help with French.
163
French?
164
What a coincidence!
165
Just a subject I'm having trouble with.
166
To have trouble with something means you find it difficult or frustrating.
167
Listen to these examples.
168
Are you having trouble with the play?
169
No, no, no, no, no. There's a co-worker I'm having trouble with real know-it-all Incredibly stubborn by the way can I ask you a quick favor?
170
Sometimes we have trouble knowing what lessons you'll most enjoy
171
So can you take just a moment to pause the lesson and comment one series?
172
Movie or celebrity that you would love for us to make a lesson with the real life team
173
and me read every single comment Thanks a lot
174
and one quick grammar note before we move on when March says she tutors Homer immediately asks You tutor?
175
Yes.
176
And anyone can be tutored?
177
You might be thinking, shouldn't that be, and can anyone be tutored?
178
With the subject and verb switched around, like a normal question.
179
Well, here's the thing.
180
Both are grammatically valid questions.
181
However, they do slightly different things.
182
Can anyone be tutored?
183
Is a neutral open question.
184
And anyone can be tutored?
185
With a rising intonation, is a declarative question.
186
You use it when you just had a realization, and you want to confirm it.
187
Almost like thinking out loud.
188
Homer isn't really asking, he's having a realization and forming a plan in his head.
189
Alright, so Marge agrees to tutor Homer in French, and Homer sees this as the perfect opening for him to seduce her.
190
Let's see how it goes.
191
Crayon!
192
Bien!
193
Fin...etre?
194
Bien!
195
Femme.
196
Très bien.
197
Homer, you're amazing.
198
Before, you couldn't say bonjour.
199
But now you can conjugate all the regular verbs, two irregular verbs, and sing the first verse of alouette.
200
Alouette, gente alouette, alouette, gente blumeroy.
201
Bien!
202
I can't believe it.
203
It's sticking.
204
You're telling me new stuff, and minutes later, it's still there.
205
And it's all thanks to you.
206
Marge, when I see you forming the vowels and continents...
207
Consonants.
208
Consonants with your beautiful mouth and your beautiful breath pushing them past your beautiful teeth.
209
You'll see.
210
I guess.
211
Marge, would you go to the prom with me?
212
You know, Homer, you're like no one I've ever met before.
213
You're dear, and honest and open, without a trace of pretension.
214
I'll take that as a compliment, so we can go out with me.
215
Please say we.
216
We!
217
Oh!
218
So Marge comes to Homer's apartment for the tutoring session.
219
Beforehand, he made himself as handsome as he could, and set the mood a little with music.
220
I ask it one thing, babe.
221
Hello!
222
Why is there make-out music on?
223
It helps me study.
224
Well, not me.
225
Shut it off and let's get down to business.
226
So to make out means to kiss passionately, usually for an extended period of time.
227
It's very common casual American English, and you'll hear it constantly on TV and in real life.
228
Makes perfect sense for high schoolers like Marge and Homer, right?
229
Marge made make out into an adjective to describe the music that's playing as the type
230
that people would listen to while kissing.
231
To shut something off means to turn it off.
232
You can shut off any appliance, device, engine, or music.
233
Shut off the TV, can you shut off the alarm?
234
And listen again to how Marge said that.
235
Shut it off and let's get down to business.
236
It's connected speech again.
237
This always happens with phrasal verbs like this.
238
So when a T is between two vowel sounds, it becomes a soft .
239
We call this an American T.
240
We have two of them here.
241
Shut it off.
242
Shut it off instead of shut it off.
243
Listen to her again and repeat.
244
Shut it off and let's get down to business.
245
Shut it off and let's get down to business.
246
And listen again to the last thing Marge said.
247
Shut it off and let's get down to business.
248
What do you think it means to get down to business?
249
To focus on what needs to be done?
250
To study a subject deliberately to go to a work meeting.
251
Spot-on!
252
When you get down to business, you drop the distractions, small talk, flirting, and focus on the task at hand.
253
It's a phrase you'll hear in business and classrooms, like in this example.
254
All right, let's get down to business, huh?
255
Homer has never been a good student, but with Marge, things seem to stick.
256
I can't believe it!
257
It's sticking!
258
When new information sticks, it means it's actually staying in your memory.
259
Obviously, this is huge for language learners like you and me.
260
It's so frustrating when you've heard or read a word 50 times, but when it comes time to use it in conversation, it doesn't come out.
261
It hasn't stuck.
262
On the Raylife app, we make it so all of these new expressions you're learning with The Simpsons stick forever.
263
You use smart flashcards, which use a scientific method for new words to stay in your long-term memory.
264
And you speak them right away with shadowing exercises and low-pressure conversation with your AI coach.
265
Give it a try for free with the link in the description and become a more confident, natural speaker today.
266
And we had a great bit of connected speech we can break down in Homer's next question.
267
Marge, would you go to the prom with me?
268
So when we have a word ending with d followed by u, it usually morphs to a ju, ju sound.
269
Would you becomes would you, would you.
270
To reduces to ta, connects with go, and becomes an American T.
271
Go-da, go-da.
272
Let's put it all together.
273
Would you go to the prom with me?
274
Would you go to the prom with me?
275
Listen to Homer again and try to say that just like him.
276
Marge, would you go to the prom with me?
277
Would you go to the prom with me?
278
Now this next part is super sweet.
279
You know, Homer, you're like no one I've ever met before.
280
You're dear, and honest and open, without a trace of pretension.
281
Alright, this might have been a bit tricky to understand.
282
First, dear, when used to describe a person, not as a greeting, means they're sweet, kind, warm, and lovable.
283
It's the kind of word your grandmother might use to describe someone.
284
You might also hear it as, he's very dear to me, meaning someone holds a special place in your heart.
285
And March says Homer is...
286
You're dear, and honest, and open, without a trace of pretension.
287
Based on the context, what does she most likely mean?
288
Homer has just a little bit of pretension?
289
Homer has absolutely no pretension at all.
290
Homer is pretending to be humble.
291
Exactly right!
292
Without a trace of something means with absolutely zero of it.
293
Not even the tiniest amount.
294
Listen to this example.
295
If someone vanishes without a trace, there's no evidence they were ever there.
296
Something is stalking our city, wreaking destruction and then disappearing without a trace.
297
And what is pretension, anyway?
298
To be pretentious means to act like you're more sophisticated, educated, or important than you really are.
299
You know that person at a party who only talks about how great they are or all the famous people they know?
300
That's pretentious.
301
Homer on the other hand is unapologetically himself.
302
No filter, no performance, no attempt to impress.
303
And ironically, that's exactly what impresses March.
304
Alright, you've done great so far but now let's get down to business with the most important part of the lesson.
305
You'll test everything that you've learned by watching the clips again without subtitles and answering some quiz questions.
306
Let's go!
307
Hi Estelle, will you go to the prom with me?
308
I wouldn't go to the prom with you if you were Elliot Gould!
309
What do you call it if someone asks their boss for a raise and gets completely rejected?
310
They.. got slapped in, got shot down, took a stand.
311
Oh, shut down again.
312
Hey, don't worry, Barney.
313
It's a big school.
314
There's got to be a girl nobody else wants to take to the prom.
315
Excuse me.
316
Is this room 106?
317
Hey, who's that?
318
I...
319
I don't know.
320
So, uh, what are you in for?
321
I'm a political prisoner.
322
Last time I ever take a stand.
323
Well, I'm here for being me.
324
Every day I show up, act like me, and they slap me in here.
325
Simpson, be quiet.
326
Hello!
327
Hello?
328
Oh, you may not remember me.
329
I'm Homer Simpson.
330
So, um, you wanna go out with me?
331
Well, I, uh, I don't think you're my type.
332
Look, I'm not asking you to like me, I'm not asking you to put yourself in a position where I can touch your goodies.
333
I'm just asking you to be fair.
334
Well, what's the good word?
335
I'm sorry.
336
What?
337
Well, you seem like a nice enough guy, but I really don't have the time.
338
And I tutor part-time.
339
You tutor?
340
Yes.
341
And anyone can be tutored?
342
Just those who need help with French.
343
French?
344
What a coincidence!
345
Just the subject I'm having trouble with.
346
Which sentence uses have trouble with correctly?
347
I'm having trouble with to understand fast speakers.
348
I've always had trouble with listening comprehension.
349
She had trouble with that she couldn't find the words.
350
Which sentence uses get down to business correctly?
351
After a lot of small talk, the manager said, let's get down to business.
352
I get down to business every morning before work.
353
She got down to business when she heard the bad news.
354
Crayon!
355
Bien!
356
Uh, fenêtre?
357
Bien!
358
Femme.
359
Très bien.
360
Well, I should probably be going.
361
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, don't go, don't go.
362
Wait, wait, uh, why don't we take a little study break?
363
Homer, you're amazing.
364
Before you couldn't say bonjour.
365
But now you can conjugate all the regular verbs, two irregular verbs, and sing the first verse of alouette.
366
Alouette, gente alouette.
367
Alouette, gente bloomeroy.
368
Bien.
369
I can't believe it.
370
It's sticking.
371
You're telling me new stuff, and minutes later it's still there.
372
And it's all thanks to you, Marge.
373
When I see you forming the vowels and consonants...
374
Consonants.
375
Consonants with your beautiful mouth and your beautiful breath pushing them past your beautiful teeth...
376
You'll see, I guess.
377
Marge, would you go to the prom with me?
378
You know, Homer, you're like no one I've ever met before.
379
You're dear, and honest, and open, without a trace of pretension.
380
Without a trace of kindness means a person is only slightly kind, pretending to be kind, completely unkind.
381
You're dear and honest and open without a trace of pretension.
382
Which of the following best describes a pretentious person?
383
Someone who is shy but secretly very confident?
384
Someone who acts more cultured or important than they really are?
385
Someone who is very direct?
386
I'll take that as a compliment so we could go out with me.
387
Please say we.
388
Wee!
389
Yeah, I hope you had a lot of fun, you laughed a lot, and if you want to be able to understand fast-speaking natives without getting lost,
390
without missing the jokes, and without subtitles, just like we've done today with The Simpsons, then you should join over 11 million learners who are doing exactly
391
that every week with two new lessons by hitting
392
that subscribe subscribe button and bell down below so you don't miss a single new one.
393
And if you're tired of being stuck at intermediate level, you're ready to really raise the bar and become a confident,
394
natural English speaker, then the best way to do that is by enjoying these lessons on the RealLife app.
395
And you can get started 100% for free with a link in the description.
396
But if you are sticking here on YouTube, you might want to check out this lesson next.
397
Have another vision!
398
Oh, no, no, see I don't do visions anymore.
399
But you could.
400
But I won't.
401
I can't say the weight of the world is on your shoulders.
402
The end.
403
If our fate's up to me, Misa's have another vision.
404
Huh!
405
Maybe it'll show me what to do.
406
Look, even if I wanted to, which I don't, you wrecked my vision cave.
407
Which is a problem, because I need a big open space.
408
We'll find one! Where?
409
This is my dream.

Warum dieser Clip ideal fürs Englisch-Sprechen ist
Der Clip aus "The Simpsons" über Homers und Marges erste Begegnung ist ein tolles Material, um Englisch zu üben – und das hat gute Gründe! Die Dialoge sind natürlich, voller alltäglicher Redewendungen und zeigen, wie Menschen in realen Situationen kommunizieren. Keine steifen Sätze, sondern lebendige Interaktionen, die dir helfen, dein Sprechen flüssiger und selbstbewusster zu machen. Perfekt für Englisch Shadowing und das Üben von natürlicher Aussprache!
Die besten Sätze – und warum sie so natürlich klingen
Lass uns die Dialoge genauer anschauen. Hier sind drei Beispiele, die dir zeigen, wie native Speaker sprechen:
- "I'm not asking you to put yourself in a position where I can touch your goodies." Diese Satzstruktur klingt authentisch, weil sie umgangssprachlich ist. Statt "ich bitte dich nicht, dich in eine Situation zu bringen", nutzt Homer "put yourself in a position" – eine häufige Redewendung, die Sätze lockerer macht.
- "Well, you seem like a nice enough guy, but I really don't have the time." "Well" ist hier ein Diskursmarker, der die Rede sanft einleitet. Native Speaker verwenden solche Wörter ständig, um Pausen zu füllen oder die Atmosphäre zu entspannen. Ohne "Well" würde der Satz plötzlicher klingen.
- "French? What a coincidence. Incidents!" Der Fehler "Incidents" statt "coincidence" macht den Dialog lebendig. Es zeigt, dass Fehler normal sind – und wie man sie in der echten Kommunikation handhabt. So lernst du nicht nur richtige Sätze, sondern auch, wie man selbstbewusst spricht, auch wenn man mal daneben geht.
Deine tägliche Übungsroutine: Shadowing und Wiederholung
Um das zu üben, probiere diesen einfachen Shadowing-Loop aus – es braucht nur 10–15 Minuten pro Tag:
- Schau den Clip 2–3 Mal an, um die Intonation und Rhythmus zu hören.
- Wähle einen kurzen Abschnitt (z. B. Homers Frage "You tutor?") und wiederhole ihn sofort nach dem Ton – versuche, die Aussprache und die Betonung genau zu kopieren. Das nennt man Englisch Shadowing.
- Nehme dich auf, während du übst. Höre dir dann an: Wo unterscheidet sich dein Ton von dem Original? Arbeite an diesen Stellen weiter.
- Übe 5–6 Sätze pro Tag. Mit der Zeit wirst du merken, dass dein Sprechen flüssiger und natürlicher klingt – und du selbstbewusster wirst, Englisch zu sprechen.
Denk dran: Übung macht den Meister! Jeder kleine Schritt bringt dich näher an dein Ziel, Englisch sprechen zu üben und selbstbewusst zu kommunizieren. Also leg los – und viel Spaß mit Homers und Marges Geschichte!
Grammatik in diesem Video
Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:
| Struktur | Im Video |
|---|---|
| Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist | he's been shot · I've ever met · has never been |
| Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut | can be tutored · be rejected · being hit |
| Relativsätze who / which + Satz – eine Zusatzinformation über eine Person oder Sache | anyone who can · those who need · again, which is |
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.
