1
This is my medical closet.
2
Over the years, I've been saving small items from the doctor's office.
3
Most people don't know that you can ask for your gowns after a procedure.
4
Nine times out of ten, they're willing to give you that.
5
The one time out of ten is if they've got bodily fluids on them.
6
I think my mother is maybe a bit obsessed with saving money, though.
7
When I go to the doctor, I typically ask for some extra freebies.
8
Applicators, tongue depressors, sterilized of course, and gloves.
9
Gloves are my most favorite thing to get from the doctor's office.
10
I sterilize them before I use them a second time.
11
Some of the ideas are okay, some of them are just insane.
12
How do I save money on syringes is, I have friends that are diabetic and they take insulin.
13
I get friends to give them to me after they're finished.
14
And then, of course, I sterilize them with rubbing alcohol.
15
And you can safely use this up to four times.
16
Nothing surprises me anymore.
17
I can come home and I can see something here, and I say, well, it's Karen, you know.
18
This paper is for when I perform medical procedures on myself.
19
I just roll it out.
20
It's sterile.
21
It's the exact same medical paper you would find at a doctor's office.
22
Karen Hearn finds extreme savings on medicine and medical supplies for her family.
23
Since a typical doctor's appointment can cost between $150 and $500, she even does her own medical procedures at home.
24
But for larger, more serious problems, even Karen will succumb to the occasional visit to the doctor's office.
25
I save thousands of dollars on not going to the doctor and the dentist.
26
Karen?
27
But recently I've encountered a really bad toothache.
28
These past two weeks have been horrible.
29
I've tried clove oil.
30
I've tried ice.
31
I've tried everything over the counter, and nothing worked.
32
And I finally gave up.
33
I just had to go to the dentist.
34
Let's take a look and see what's going on, okay?
35
All right, Karen.
36
Well, you definitely have an abscess on that tooth, okay?
37
All right.
38
You've got to do something or it's going to keep bothering you.
39
What I recommend you do is do a root canal on this tooth and then put a crown on it.
40
That way the tooth won't hurt you anymore and you can still keep it and function on it.
41
But what's it going to cost?
42
Well, you're looking at about $1,800.
43
$100.
44
When I know I've got to spend money, I cringe.
45
Well, a cheaper option is to pull the tooth, but once we pull it, it's gone.
46
How much is that going to cost me? About $185.
47
Would it be cheaper if I went without any anesthesia?
48
That's not a good idea.
49
You're not going to be able to stand the pain if you try to pull this tooth without numbing it up.
50
I'm knowledgeable.
51
I'm college educated.
52
So if there's a medical procedure to be done, it is researched to great lengths.
53
This is an elevator.
54
That's what we put down into the gums
55
and twist it against the bone
56
and it actually pushes the tooth out of the socket until I can grab it with this forceps
57
that actually wiggles the tooth out until it gets loose and then we pull it out.
58
Well, that just looks like a pair of pliers.
59
Well, I promise you this is a precision extraction instrument.
60
If you use a pair of pliers, it's just going to break the tooth off.
61
Well, can I take the tools home with me after I'm done?
62
No, they're my instruments.
63
That's what I use on everybody.
64
We have to sterilize them each time.
65
Can I think on it?
66
I mean, you take your time, but the longer you wait, probably the more it's going to start hurting.
67
Grant!
68
What you got?
69
This is how to take your own tooth out.
70
I think I want you to take my tooth out my tooth out.
71
Karen Hearn and her husband have performed various medical procedures at their home before,
72
but now for the first time they're attempting a tooth extraction with the aid of some online videos.
73
I don't like the idea of pulling my wife's teeth out.
74
What if I pull the wrong one or something, you know?
75
My wife threatened to take her own tooth out, so this needs to be taken care of.
76
Benzocaine is a numbing agent.
77
I'm going to use benzocaine to numb up my gum so that when my husband pulls my tooth, I won't feel anything.
78
The extraction will actually take place using this barber's tool.
79
We found it at a yard sale, used back in the early 1920s and 1930s
80
for when people used to go to the barber rather than a dentist to have their tooth pulled.
81
I'm building a vacuum for her mouth.
82
I'm using a regular vacuum cleaner.
83
I'm going to stick out and part her mouth, and we can suck out the blood and whatever, and a straw with duct tape, which makes a good seal.
84
This regular cola.
85
Phosphorus acid in the cola dissolves the rust in the metal.
86
Scrape it off with aluminum foil.
87
Rubbing alcohol will complete the sterilization of these instruments.
88
I'm ready as I will ever be.
89
Karen's dentist would have charged $185 for the tooth extraction, But because she already had most of the supplies on hand,
90
the procedure will only cost $10.
91
Nervous?
92
A little.
93
But I know I'm in good hands.
94
How's that ice pack feel?
95
It feels pretty good.
96
Comfortable?
97
Yes.
98
Where's your mom?
99
It's now.
100
It's okay.
101
Mmm.
102
Ah.
103
Ah.
104
Ah.
105
Ah.
106
Yeah.
107
Think I got it.
108
Oh.
109
Ah.
110
Pain only lasts a short time.
111
But saving that money lasts so much longer.
112
My wife will always be cheap.
113
Even if I won the lottery today, I wouldn't change.
114
Don't ever ask me to do this again.

Warum mit diesem Video sprechen üben?

Dieses Video bietet einen spannenden Kontext fürs Englisch sprechen üben – es handelt von Alltagsproblemen, Gesprächen mit Ärzten und finanziellen Überlegungen. Die natürliche Sprache, die verschiedenen Emotionen (z. B. Entsetzen über Kosten) und die direkten Fragen machen es ideal fürs Englisch Shadowing. Du lernst, wie Menschen in realen Szenen (wie Arztgesprächen) kommunizieren, was dir hilft, flüssiger und selbstsicherer zu werden.

Grammatik & Ausdrücke im Kontext

  • "Nine times out of ten": Ein gebräuchlicher Ausdruck, um zu sagen, dass etwas fast immer passiert. Beispiel: "Nine times out of ten bekomme ich kostenlos Medikamentenbeutel bei der Apotheke." Perfekt für Gespräche über Häufigkeiten!
  • "I cringe when...": Bedeutet, dass man innerlich zusammenzieht vor etwas (z. B. Kosten). Nutze es, um Emotionen auszudrücken: "Ich cringe, wenn ich sehe, wie teuer Lebensmittel geworden sind."
  • "Would it be cheaper if...": Eine konditionale Frage, um Preise zu vergleichen. Wichtig für alltägliche Szenen wie Einkaufen oder Dienstleistungen: "Would it be cheaper if ich das Auto selbst repariere?"

Häufige Aussprachefallen

Einige Wörter in der Video sind trickreich: "Abscess" (Entzündung) wird oft falsch ausgesprochen – betone den ersten Teil: "AB-sess". "Anesthesia" hat eine lange Silbe: "an-es-THEE-zee-uh". Achte auch auf die Betonung in "root canal" (Wurzelkanalbehandlung) – das "root" wird stärker betont als "canal". Mit shadow speech übst du diese Klänge, bis sie sich selbstverständlich anfühlen.

Tipp fürs Shadowing

Nimm dir kurze Abschnitte (z. B. das Gespräch über Zahnkosten) und wiederhole sie ständig. Ein guter shadowing site hilft, die Rhythmus und Intonation zu kopieren. So verbesserst du nicht nur deine Aussprache, sondern auch dein Verständnis für natürliche Gesprächsfluss. Probier's aus – du wirst staunen, wie schnell du Fortschritte siehst!

Grammatik in diesem Video

Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:

StrukturIm Video
Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig istI've encountered · have been · I've tried
Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tutbe done · be taken

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.
