Shadowing-Übung: Medical Memes Doctors Actually Like - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

Lektion wird erstellt...
1
I've heard a wise person say that memes are like doctors.
2
Some are absolutely brilliant, hilarious, humorous even, but some are downright mean, but yet they're all giving advice on Instagram.
3
Let's react to some medical memes.
4
Huge thanks to ZocDoc for sponsoring this video.
5
Beep whoop!
6
When you test positive on all the allergy shots.
7
Oh, that's almost like a dermographia.
8
When you go like this with no pen, and then like you actually see the design because you get like a histamine edematous response.
9
You know there's like weird conditions like hereditary angioedema when the mouth just starts swelling.
10
And I had a patient the other day who has that condition, but only one side of the mouth swells.
11
And it's so dangerous because what do you do?
12
You have to go to the ER.
13
First case of crock pox.
14
Oh my God, I wonder if this actually happens.
15
Wow, I never even thought about this.
16
Do people get sunburned through their crock holes?
17
Through their crock holes?
18
Crock holes?
19
Crock holes?
20
Crocks holes.
21
Crocks holes.
22
Crocks holes?
23
How your crocks holes doing?
24
Wow.
25
You can't forget organic chem reactions if you don't memorize them in the first place.
26
That is how people who have a cheating mentality like to think.
27
But in order to understand how to practice medicine, in order to know how to prescribe medications, in order to know how to take care of your patients,
28
how to know how to deal with insurance companies, how to make sure that systemic barriers don't get in the way of your patient's healthcare, how to take out certain organs during surgery.
29
You absolutely need to not know organic chemistry and it's something
30
that we just force upon students because we think it's like a good testing thing, so.
31
That's not where you thought that was going.
32
Gray's Anatomy, ER, Scrubs, Good Doctor,
33
House, Doogie Howser, MD, you get to pick your dream medical team from any TV show who's saving you.
34
Okay, you need House, MD, to be the leader because he's gonna just like break all boundaries.
35
And then you need a genius behind him to challenge him.
36
And that would either be Sean from Good Doctor or Doogie Howser.
37
I feel like Doogie Howser is lacking a little bit of experience.
38
Good Doctor has been on air for like seven seasons.
39
So that's at least like seven years of medical training.
40
So I'm gonna go with Sean and then who's, am I gonna go JD?
41
Is JD gonna, is he gonna help me out with a little humor?
42
I thought you might go Noah?
43
No, man.
44
I have no on speed dial.
45
I don't need him as part of the team.
46
He can be the curbside consult for the team.
47
We need JD's humor to bring that humanistic component because I feel like everyone in Grey's Anatomy,
48
I'm questioning their skills, especially some of their CPR skills of which I tell them in person.
49
Do you watch Grey's Anatomy, Dr. Mike?
50
And is Jason doing a good job?
51
Cause I think- He's doing a phenomenal job, but I gotta say the chest compressions could use a little work.
52
So- Not mine, not mine.
53
If you serve your kids frozen pizza or chicken nuggets for dinner, you are a terrible parent.
54
Well, I disagree with that statement.
55
I would say you are not feeding your children optimally in that moment, but do you see how we need new- All right,
56
sorry, I'll relax and see what the meme says.
57
I don't care how busy you are, find the time to microwave them.
58
Oh, yeah.
59
You probably should, at the very least, microwave them.
60
I assume, okay, it got me.
61
It got me, meme one, mic zero, I get it.
62
What does this thing even mean?
63
If you crash your car, you press that, and it will undo the accident.
64
It's like uno reverse.
65
It's actually the button that I tell people to press when it's wildfire smoke outside.
66
Why when I was growing up, I never had to think about wildfires and now there's wildfires all the time.
67
It's like part of the forecast.
68
Is it raining?
69
No, it's wild firing.
70
Canada, what are you doing?
71
Stop firing on us.
72
But yeah, that's the air recirculation.
73
So it doesn't bring in fresh air from outside and just recirculates the air that's inside.
74
Me, enough caffeine to kill a horse.
75
My anxiety.
76
Nah, nah, nah.
77
Do you even know the number needed to harm for a horse when it comes to caffeine?
78
I don't know what the lethal dose is.
79
Let's look up the LD50, look at me knowing pharmacology, for a horse and caffeine.
80
I guarantee you my Google search is gonna be sent to the FBI for like trying to kill a horse or something.
81
There is no precise experimentally established oral LD50 dose for pure caffeine specifically in horses.
82
However, caffeine is a potent methylxanthine poison to equines with toxic effects and poisoning documented from sources like coffee husks.
83
Ooh.
84
Ooh.
85
Ooh.
86
Anxiety.
87
The coffee husks are killing the horses.
88
That's the problem.
89
I have no words.
90
Caution, do not insert in mouth or rectum.
91
No. No, no one's doing that.
92
That's not right, ethically or medically.
93
Fun fact, your internal body temperature rises when you are infected because viruses are using your body for peer-to-peer file sharing.
94
It's not inaccurate.
95
Viruses are spreading all across the body.
96
In fact, that's what makes viruses unique.
97
When you have a bacterial infection and your temperature goes up,
98
usually, unless you're septic and there's septicemia and the bacteria spreading across your blood, it's usually reserved to one area.
99
So if you have a pneumonia, it's in the lungs.
100
If you have a meningitis, it's in the meninges.
101
So the bacterial infection is usually contained to some organ or organ system.
102
But viruses, they be everywhere.
103
What's more dangerous, Lyme wire or Lyme disease?
104
Lyme wire has viruses.
105
Lyme disease is caused by a bacteria.
106
For Lyme disease, you can use antibiotics.
107
For Lyme wire, you could only use Norton Antivirus.
108
Hey, nice.
109
You pulled that together.
110
We tried.
111
Back to the memes in just a second, but first I wanna tell you about my sponsor ZocDoc, a free website where you can easily search
112
and compare high quality in-network doctors so you can find the right one for you.
113
They help you book in-network appointments with more than 150,000 providers in all 50 states.
114
Look, I use reviews a lot, like when I'm trying to decide where to stay, if I'm taking a trip, or where I wanna eat dinner.
115
Honestly, most of my friends won't get a reservation at a restaurant before they've checked out a place's ratings.
116
But for some reason, when booking a doctor's appointment, we just search for the closest one within a 10-mile radius and call it a day.
117
Shouldn't our healthcare decisions come under more scrutiny than where to get dinner?
118
That's what I love about ZocDoc.
119
It has reviews of doctors available for all to read, allowing you to make an informed decision about who's treating you.
120
My favorite part, you can see the doctor's actual appointment openings, choose a time that works for you, and click to instantly book a visit.
121
I even used it for my dad.
122
So stop putting off your doctor's appointments and go to zocdoc.com slash Dr. Mike.
123
Also link down below in the description to find and instantly book a top rated doctor today.
124
All right, let's get back to the memes.
125
Me in my prime, at my goal weight, 18 pounds, clear skin, never stressed, fire outfits, personal chef, no job,
126
no debt, diva, and I will say, developmentally up to date.
127
That's the one I would add, and fire hairstyle.
128
Those are the two things I would add for this picture.
129
Swag on another level.
130
Benadryl allergy.
131
You can't sneeze if you're unconscious.
132
That's not the only way it works.
133
It's also an antihistamine.
134
It's a first generation, so it's definitely gonna knock you out and have sedative properties, which is why I don't love giving Benadryl to older people.
135
I've fallen and I can't get up.
136
I've seen one too many, middle of the night, groggy wake-ups, broken hip.
137
Something that would always happen when you're on call as a resident, you get paged.
138
They're like, oh, it's 3 a.m., patient can't sleep.
139
Can you give them some Benadryl?
140
Because they think it's a benign medicine.
141
3 a.m., they have to be up for rounds in like three, four hours when the team rounds on them.
142
They're not gonna be up if you just gave them 50 of Benadryl.
143
They're gonna be knocked out, like this gentleman in the forest hanging out with the dandelions.
144
What if your teeth were naturally flaccid and got hard when you got hungry?
145
It would be hard to speak.
146
Your face shape would be weird.
147
If you're on a diet, does that mean you just walk around hard all the time?
148
Because that seems weird.
149
It'd be hard to overeat.
150
It would be hard to overeat because if you're not hungry, you're gonna go flaccid and you're gonna be all gummy unless you get milkshakes, then you don't need the hard teeth.
151
I'm just waiting for your X-ray, but I've never dated anyone named Ray, and we might do a brain scan.
152
She thought he meant her X-ray, and he meant X-ray.
153
The real culture wars, probiotics, antibiotics.
154
But it's not the same.
155
They're not like diametrically opposed.
156
Which by the way, what does diametric mean?
157
Excuse me, sorry to bother you, but would you mind, and literally no worries if not, but if it's not too much of an inconvenience, could you possibly call 911?
158
Is he bleeding?
159
Or is this a prolactinoma brain tumor that is impacting the vision and therefore also creating lactation from the nipple?
160
See, that's called a differential.
161
You don't wanna assume there's bleeding just because you see fluid.
162
That could easily be a prolactinoma.
163
I need to do a physical exam.
164
Treatment for headache, depression, insomnia, and stress.
165
New treatment for migraine and outs.
166
Honestly, that's worse.
167
That makes everything worse.
168
It complicates all of those problems.
169
If for nothing else, you have all that money, you're gonna wanna go spend it, not sleep.
170
So that's a loan insomnia inducing.
171
But then once you start spending it, you're worried you're getting rid of it too quickly, that's gonna create insomnia.
172
So like, there is no winning there.
173
Unless you give it to charity, then you could sleep well at night because you did something good for society.
174
You heard of Alf on a Shelf, now get ready for...
175
Hold on.
176
Just give me a second.
177
God, I wanna say Jason Mraz, but it's so bad, it's not his name.
178
John Mayer on a conveyor?
179
I don't know, Sam, help me.
180
Do you know it?
181
I did, I had to look it up.
182
What is it?
183
It's John Mayer on a bilayer.
184
Phospholipid bilayer.
185
John Mayer on a phospholipid bilayer.
186
Yeah, I would have gotten that.
187
Yeah.
188
One of my students tried to explain today how blink is the plural of wink and I can't stop thinking about it.
189
It's not because if I happen to have one eye due to a congenital or traumatic issue, I would still blink with one eye.
190
It would not be a wink.
191
I'm not winking at you.
192
Cyclops does not wink.
193
Exactly.
194
When you're feeling sad, remember, Vertebrae C6 is so happy to literally support you every day.
195
And you know what's even better?
196
C6 supports C5, which helps keep you alive.
197
Because below that, if you have damage, because above that, if you, if you, because- You, you, you can, you do, you, you want, you.
198
But yeah, look how cute that is.
199
Super smiley.
200
Super smiley vertebrae.
201
Super smiley sixth vertebrae.
202
Super smiley silly non osteopor...
203
I'll stop.
204
Gym owners on the first week of January.
205
Also, that's all gym owners on the first week of January except Planet Fitness.
206
How in the world do they earn money charging $9 a month?
207
It must be that everyone just goes, it's so cheap, I will just pay for it because I get the emotional boost that I'm a member.
208
I could tell people I'm a member.
209
Scientists can now transform stress into electricity.
210
That is how I got through med school.
211
Rabbit jump and live for eight years.
212
Turtles do nothing, they live for 150 years.
213
Moral, laziness is the key.
214
When I always say we should stop looking at all these longevity bros
215
that look at rat research and try and convert it to humans, I say we are not rats.
216
So for this meme, I have to remind you, we're not rabbits nor turtles, because if we are lazy and we just sit,
217
we ultimately end up melting into the chairs, fusing with it, developing adhesive capsulitis,
218
which is frozen shoulder, depositing fatty buildup into our arteries, especially the smaller ones in the heart, leading to a myocardial infarction,
219
a STEMI, we have to have the cardiologist come and either stick a stent in there or do a bypass, and then you're a CVD patient.
220
Nobody wants that.
221
Look at that little cute rabbit.
222
Pull out, Betty.
223
Pull out.
224
You've hit an artery.
225
Oh.
226
I wonder if mosquitoes like hitting blood vessels or do they freak out because it's too much too fast?
227
Or can they control it?
228
Do they have a valve?
229
Like they go, oh, we hit an oil field.
230
A geyser, a blood geyser, if you will.
231
My finger, what did you do to me?
232
Band-Aid, I took away your bending.
233
Is this the airbender?
234
Well, if you make the band-aid the correct way, if you cut the band-aid's wings and do like a crisscross method,
235
you actually maintain some of the flexibility of the finger.
236
So airbender with you.
237
I was drinking a margarita and the waitress screamed, does anyone know CPR?
238
Okay, that's kind of me.
239
I yelled, I know the entire alphabet and we all laughed and laughed, Well, except one guy.
240
That's terrible.
241
I don't understand.
242
Like the letters, CPR?
243
What about cardiopulmonary resuscitation, sir?
244
Even this?
245
Oh my God, if I'm gonna get the primate wrong, I'm gonna be so mad at myself.
246
I think that's a monkey.
247
I think that's a chimp.
248
That looks chimp-esque.
249
Two blood cells met and fell in love, but alas, it was all in vain.
250
So they were probably running low on oxygen because the venous system is historically,
251
historically, physiologically, a low oxygenated state because they've already delivered their love, their oxygen to others.
252
Oh my God, so are red blood cells polyamorous because they deliver to all cell types, to all tissue types?
253
This is where we need cells at work.
254
In fact, I reacted to cells at work, so click here and check that out.
255
As always, stay happy and healthy.
256
Throw that plug there, okay?

Über diese Lektion

In dieser Lektion übst du, Englisch in einer lockeren, gesprächlichen Atmosphäre zu verstehen und zu sprechen. Der Video-Dialog handelt von medizinischen Memes, kombiniert Humor mit medizinischen Begriffen und eignet sich perfekt, um deine Hörverstehensfähigkeiten und deine Aussprache zu trainieren. Du wirst nicht nur neue Vokabeln lernen, sondern auch die Art und Weise, wie native Speaker über alltägliche und berufliche Themen sprechen, kennenlernen – ideal fürs "shadowspeak"!

Wichtige Vokabel und Sätze

  • Allergy shots: "Allergieimpfungen" – Wenn jemand "positive auf all die Allergy shots testet", hat er eine Reaktion auf die Impfungen.
  • ER (Emergency Room): "Notaufnahme" – "Du musst zur ER gehen" bedeutet, du brauchst dringende medizinische Hilfe.
  • CPR skills (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation): "Lebensrettungsfertigkeiten" – Im Video wird kritisiert, wie manche Serien die CPR skills darstellen.
  • Curbside consult: "Kurze Beratung an der Straßenseite" – Ein Arzt, der schnell Rat gibt, ohne Teil des Teams zu sein.
  • Humanistic component: "Humanistische Komponente" – JD aus "Scrubs" bringt durch Humor die humanistische Komponente ins Team.

Übungstipps fürs Shadowing

Das Video hat eine lockere, gesprächliche Tone, die perfekt fürs "Englisch Shadowing" ist. Die Sprecher sprechen flüssig, aber nicht zu schnell – ideal, um "shadowspeak" zu üben. Hier sind Tipps:

  • Wiederhole kurze Sätze zuerst: Nimm Sätze wie "House, MD, should be the leader because he's gonna break all boundaries" und wiederhole sie direkt nach dem Video. Achte auf die Betonung von Wörtern wie "break all boundaries".
  • Arbeite an der Intonation: Die Sprecher verwenden oft Humor, was in der Intonation sichtbar ist (z. B. bei "Crock holes?"). Versuche, diese Nuancen nachzuahmen – es hilft, deine "Englische Aussprache zu verbessern".
  • Verwende Pausen clever: Wenn der Dialog sich beschleunigt, mach eine kurze Pause und wiederhole den Satz langsam. Mit der Zeit wirst du die Geschwindigkeit einholen – "shadow speech" braucht Übung!

Mit diesen Tipps wirst du nicht nur die Sprache, sondern auch die Kultur hinter medizinischen Memes verstehen – und gleichzeitig dein "shadowspeaks" stark verbessern. Also: Drücke play, höre zu und sprich mit!

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.
