Shadowing Practice: Eat Dinner with Us: Advanced English Conversation - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creando lección...
1
Hey guys, welcome to dinner.
2
Thanks for having dinner with us.
3
We had this idea to do a video about American English conversation with our family at dinner.
4
And then we thought, that's a terrible idea because we have a baby and a toddler.
5
So I said, why don't we just sit down to dinner?
6
And then I started seeing about this thing called a mukbang.
7
And so we're kind of doing that.
8
Kind of not.
9
Mostly we're just eating dinner with you, and we're going to turn it into an English conversation lesson.
10
So whenever we're talking and some
11
phrasal verb or idiom or vocabulary word comes up that I think you might not know or that I want to explain, you'll see it on screen in red.
12
red and white text.
13
And then at the end of the video, I'm going to sit down, we're going to go over all of these terms.
14
Let's start.
15
Cheers, David.
16
Cheers.
17
Cheers everybody.
18
Thank you for joining me at dinner.
19
Okay.
20
Now David's being a really good sport.
21
by joining me here.
22
As you can see, we only have one plate of food and it's huge.
23
So I was reading an article about eating on YouTube.
24
and it was talking about this thing that they called a mukbang.
25
which is I'm doing an English pronunciation of it.
26
It's, it's an, the origin is two Korean words put together.
27
But basically people were making videos of themselves eating and then
28
posting that and people were eating with them so they wouldn't feel like they were eating alone.
29
And then it kind of turned into this thing where people were binging on mass amounts of food.
30
And that's kind of what we're doing.
31
Seems like a great idea to me.
32
Yeah, when I told David I wanted to do this He got really excited
33
because he loves binging on mass amounts of food.
34
Now obviously we're not going to finish this, right?
35
We'll see.
36
Okay.
37
But the thing about it is I've watched a few mukbang videos.
38
It involves one huge plate of food, multiple people eating off of it.
39
Um, mouth noises are encouraged, sloppy eating is encouraged.
40
Wow.
41
So feel free.
42
And let's just dig in.
43
and see see what happens.
44
You say what you're eating?
45
Yeah, I guess we do.
46
Okay, so we got carry out.
47
from a local Indian restaurant.
48
We have samosas We have naan.
49
a big pile of rice underneath, and then some saag paneer and some chicken tikka masala.
50
And I'm vegetarian.
51
Mostly.
52
I eat almost no meat, except I do eat this chicken tikka masala because it's that good.
53
That's how good it is.
54
Alright, so I'm actually, I feel embarrassed to start.
55
I don't.
56
Okay, I'm going to let you start them.
57
I'm just going to have another sip of wine.
58
I'm hungry. While I...
59
think about Getting ready to eat.
60
in front of the camera. So good.
61
I know, we know this food is so good, that's why we decided to get this.
62
It's unbelievable.
63
We were like, if there's anything that we can eat a ton of, it's this.
64
Yeah.
65
So, anyway, David, you've been watching a few of these mukbang videos, right?
66
Yeah.
67
What do you think?
68
What do I think of the idea?
69
You know, I have my elbow on the table.
70
That's actually like considered bad manners.
71
Especially when I'm trying to get at a huge plate of food.
72
Let me take it off.
73
So what did you, well first of all the thing I love about YouTube is, - Niches can flourish.
74
- Yeah.
75
- Right?
76
I mean, Most people would not have thought a video of someone eating a meal would be that big of a deal.
77
Because it's ridiculous.
78
But people love it.
79
And like, these videos have millions of views.
80
Okay, I'm gonna take my first bite.
81
Oh. That reminds me.
82
I've been having problems with my jaw lately.
83
I can't open it that much, and I got the first part of a root canal yesterday.
84
Finally, after like months of pain and different dentist appointments, I'm gonna have it finished next week, so.
85
That makes it extra awkward to try to eat on camera when you can barely open your mouth.
86
Like, I open my mouth not enough and food falls off my fork
87
because I was not able to open my jaw enough.
88
So I'm going to take a little bites.
89
- Messy eating.
90
- A little messy.
91
Anyway, what I was saying was, That's what's so great about YouTube is that There's so much content there.
92
that even something that seems Like...
93
Almost no one would watch it.
94
There are still millions of people to watch it.
95
Yeah And it was interesting some people were talking about the They had like loss of appetite.
96
Due to various
97
problems in their lives and
98
that watching these videos of people really loving food kind of help them get their appetite back and .
99
I can see you going the other way too, but I'm glad it worked for him.
100
I can see it going the other way as well.
101
Also, I noticed there seems to be a disproportionate amount of mukbangs on seafood.
102
Oh yeah, I noticed that too.
103
Oh thanks.
104
I think it's partly because...
105
Maybe how it started.
106
That food, like, there's a lot of slurping with crab legs and muscles and stuff.
107
Part of it is like, The sound, people like the sound. Is this one mint?
108
Mm -hmm.
109
Alright.
110
Thank you.
111
What would you say?
112
I don't know.
113
Herb.
114
General Herb.
115
I was just doing a video on silent letters Herb.
116
Okay.
117
I think they say the H in British English.
118
But we don't in American English.
119
Isn't that funny?
120
Somosa got cold.
121
Shame.
122
Shame that.
123
David went to go get more water.
124
More wine too.
125
That's gotta be a nice sound.
126
I guess I'll have a little more.
127
Okay.
128
For the past three weeks, I've been so doped up on painkillers.
129
that I've not been having any wine or anything to drink ever.
130
And today's the first day.
131
Wait, did I take some this morning?
132
I did.
133
Not wine.
134
I did.
135
Today's the first day I haven't had painkillers.
136
Cheers.
137
Cheers. To that. And...
138
Yeah, I did take it this morning, but I mean I've been taking it every four hours and still hurting all the time.
139
When he was digging in, Oh man.
140
I know, he said it was worse than, worse than average.
141
Way worse than average.
142
What?
143
Meal conversation.
144
It's fine.
145
It's a root canal.
146
It's not gross.
147
I love it.
148
Not really.
149
The naan is so good.
150
I thought you didn't usually care for the naan.
151
No, it's not that I don't care for it.
152
I usually don't have room for it.
153
Oh, that's fair.
154
Thank you.
155
Also, we only get one.
156
Stoney loves it.
157
Right, he eats most of that.
158
You love it.
159
So I'm like, okay, I'll back off.
160
I'll let these people eat their naan.
161
All right.
162
Whereas If you were going to try to eat my samosa, I'd be like, no. Oh yeah, I know that face.
163
You may not.
164
Thank you.
165
Okay, here's a story.
166
David and I had not been dating for very long.
167
And we took a trip.
168
We went to Montreal. with some friends.
169
And we went out to a kind of nice dinner.
170
And they brought all these small plates.
171
It was a small plates kind of place.
172
And one of them was kimchi.
173
And I had it sitting there on my plate for a long time because
174
I wasn't sure yet what I wanted to eat it with.
175
I was saving it.
176
And David really casually takes his fork
177
and is just like about to stab it to take it for himself because he's like this woman doesn't want this.
178
- Yeah.
179
- Kimchi, 'cause it's just sitting on our plate.
180
Luckily I had my hand here and it went.
181
It was just like cat -like reflexes.
182
I saw his fork going in and I went .
183
And I said, I'm saving that.
184
Thank you.
185
So he knows certain foods don't take Rachel's portion.
186
Got a little work to do here.
187
- The President and the President of the United States.
188
leftovers.
189
Tomorrow night's dinner.
190
Yeah.
191
All right.
192
Well, I can stop.
193
Alright, we'll wrap it up.
194
And I'm going to have a lot of fun going through
195
and watching this and picking all those words that we're going to use.
196
So guys don't go anywhere because right now, We're going to have the lesson that goes with this conversation, 5, four, three, Two.
197
One.
198
Okay, the first word was mukbang.
199
We talked about this a little.
200
It's a genre of online video where people record themselves eating a meal.
201
The word is derived from the Korean words for eating and broadcast.
202
What did you think of this format?
203
Was it gross watching us eat?
204
Was it fun?
205
Did you feel like you were sitting at our dinner table?
206
Cheers, David.
207
Cheers.
208
The next word was 'Cheers'.
209
There's a good chance you know this is the word we toast with in American English.
210
I have a longer video lesson on that topic, which I'll link to at the end of this video.
211
You can also see the link in the video description.
212
It's used to express good wishes.
213
In the UK, you can also use it not just in a toast, but when you're parting ways with someone.
214
See you, cheers.
215
That's not at all common in the US.
216
A cheer is also a showing of support from a crowd, like at a sporting event.
217
Then of course we have a cheerleader.
218
whose job it is to get the crowd excited.
219
Now David's being a really good sport.
220
By joining me here, a good sport is someone who can remain positive when something goes wrong, or agree to do something that he or she might not really want to do.
221
I thought David was being a good sport by joining me in my idea to eat dinner on camera.
222
But really, he enjoyed it.
223
But basically people were making videos of themselves eating and then
224
posting that and people were eating with them so they wouldn't feel like they were eating alone.
225
And then it kind of turned into this thing where people were binging on mass amounts of food.
226
And that's kind of what we're doing.
227
Seems like a great idea to me.
228
Binging on mass amounts of food.
229
So the word to binge means to do something in excess for a short period of time.
230
We use it with the preposition on.
231
You can binge on food or alcohol.
232
As I said in the video, in mukbangs, some people binge on a mass amount of food.
233
Mass, a large number, a large amount.
234
You can say, she has a mass following.
235
She has a massive amount of followers.
236
With binge, aside from food or drink, we also use it with TV.
237
Binge watching.
238
With streaming programs, you can now watch all of the episodes for a season of a show, or the whole series.
239
You used to have to wait every week for a half hour show to come out, but now with these services like Netflix, you can binge watch Friends.
240
You can log on and watch episode after episode all weekend.
241
What did you do last weekend?
242
I binge watched Friends.
243
Or you might hear someone describe a show as: Binge -worthy.
244
That means it's worth it to spend all weekend watching that show.
245
Let's just dig in.
246
and see see what happens.
247
When he was digging in, Oh man.
248
I know.
249
He said it was worse than.. worse than average.
250
Dig in.
251
Now in the course of this conversation, we use this phrase two really different ways.
252
Let's just dig in.
253
and see See what happens.
254
We used it to describe eating.
255
To dig in means to start eating.
256
Go ahead, dig in.
257
When he was digging in, Oh man.
258
I know.
259
He said it was worse than.. worse than average.
260
But we also use it to talk about something sharp, penetrating something.
261
We use it with fingernails.
262
You're digging into my arm.
263
or The back of my shoe is digging into my heel.
264
I used it to talk about the dentist digging into my gum.
265
When he was digging in, Oh man.
266
I know, he said it was worse than, worse than average.
267
There's a third way to use it, and that means to mentally prepare to work through a hard situation or do some hard work.
268
For example, if there's something at work that you really don't want to work on, you could say: This project is going to be so much work,
269
but I need to just dig in and do it.
270
Dig in.
271
Okay, so we got Carrie out.
272
Carryout, this is different from delivery.
273
For carryout, you call the restaurant to order, or you order it online, and then you go pick it up.
274
I don't feel like cooking.
275
Let's get Carrie out.
276
And I'm vegetarian.
277
Mostly.
278
A vegetarian is someone who doesn't eat meat.
279
I call myself vegetarian, but if I eat chicken every once in a while, Come on, Rachel, you're not a vegetarian.
280
This is a five -syllable word with stress on the middle syllable.
281
veg Tear.
282
Ian.
283
vegetarian.
284
In the word vegetable, We drop the second E.
285
Vegetable.
286
But in vegetarian, we do say it: ve -ge -tarian.
287
It's the schwa.
288
vegetarian If there's anything that we can eat a ton of, it's this.
289
A ton.
290
A very common phrase to mean a lot.
291
It's interchangeable with tons.
292
It's a huge company.
293
They have tons of employees.
294
Or, it's a huge company.
295
They have a ton of employees.
296
a ton of Tons of.
297
You know, I have my elbow on the table.
298
That's actually like considered bad manners.
299
Especially when I'm trying to get out a huge plate of food.
300
Let me take it off.
301
manners.
302
This is your way of being.
303
We usually use the adjectives "good" or "bad" with it.
304
As the parent of a young child, I'm definitely in the middle of trying to teach good manners.
305
Good manners at the table, like: Don't talk with your mouth full.
306
Or good manners when meeting someone, like Make eye contact.
307
Manners.
308
Well first of all, the thing I love about YouTube is Niches can flourish.
309
Yeah.
310
Niches can flourish.
311
There are two different pronunciations that you'll hear for niche.
312
It can be niche or niche Both are in the dictionary, both are okay.
313
A niche is a specialized segment, so not general, something that applies to a lot of people, but niche, something more narrow and focused.
314
For example, I don't teach English as a second language, I focus on the niche of pronunciation.
315
Well, first of all, the thing I love about YouTube is Niches can flourish.
316
Yeah.
317
I also use the word flourish there.
318
Flourish means to grow, develop, thrive, be healthy.
319
Children flourish in a healthy and positive environment.
320
Her business is flourishing.
321
And I got the first part of a root canal yesterday.
322
root canal.
323
Have you had one?
324
I've learned a lot about them recently.
325
This is a procedure to remove inflamed tissue around the root of a tooth.
326
not comfortable.
327
That makes it extra awkward to try to eat on camera.
328
Awkward.
329
I like the spelling of this word.
330
The first W goes with the letter A to make the AW vowel.
331
all Awkward.
332
The second W is a W sound.
333
A -k -w -w -w -w.
334
Awkward.
335
Here, meaning embarrassing.
336
Awkward.
337
They had like loss of appetite.
338
due to various problems in their lives.
339
Appetite is hunger, your desire for food.
340
Some medications can cause a loss of appetite.
341
I remember once when one of my boyfriends broke up with me.
342
I was so sad I had no appetite for weeks.
343
appetite.
344
I noticed there seems to be a disproportionate amount of mukbangs on seafood.
345
Disproportionate, a long word, five syllables, with middle syllable stress.
346
It means a number that is too large or too small in context.
347
I said there's a disproportionate number of mukbang videos on seafood.
348
It seems like there are a lot of videos on seafood compared to how much a person actually eats.
349
Seafood.
350
That food, like, there's a lot of slurping with crab legs and muscles and stuff.
351
Slurping.
352
Speaking of manners, it's considered bad manners in the US to make a lot of noise while eating, like slurping.
353
In some countries, it's no problem, but in the US, it's a no -no. Herb.
354
General Herb.
355
Herb.
356
Herbal.
357
Silent H.
358
R vowel.
359
Err, herb.
360
In British English, they do say the H, and they pronounce the vowel differently without the R sound.
361
Herb.
362
Herb.
363
Herb.
364
Herb.
365
Herb in American English.
366
Somoza got called shame.
367
Shame or it's a shame is something you say to show disappointment.
368
Our local coffee shop shut down.
369
It's a shame.
370
I loved going there.
371
But it's also used in the phrase shame on you which is different.
372
If someone thinks you should feel shame, feel bad about something you've done or said, or you could say, I'm ashamed.
373
That means you feel bad, terrible about something you did.
374
You needed help and I didn't help you and I'm ashamed about that.
375
For the past three weeks, I've been so doped up on painkillers.
376
Doped up means to have a lot of drugs, sometimes to the point where it interferes with you acting normally.
377
I was taking the maximum amount of painkillers every four hours.
378
painkillers: Tylenol, Advil, Motrin, or the ingredients acetaminophen, or ibuprofen.
379
I thought you didn't usually care for the non.
380
No, it's not that I don't care for it.
381
I usually don't have room for it.
382
'Care for'.
383
This is another way to say 'like' or 'enjoy'.
384
I don't care for sweets.
385
is another way to say I don't like sweets.
386
So I'm like, okay, I'll back off.
387
I'll let these people eat their naan.
388
Back off.
389
Stop doing what you're doing or move away.
390
Do not touch something.
391
Since Stoney and David like non better than I do, I just back off and let them have it.
392
Okay, here's a story.
393
David and I had not been dating for very long.
394
Dating.
395
This is what we call it when you're becoming romantically involved with someone.
396
Are they in a serious relationship?
397
No, they're just dating.
398
Or, she was dating three people at once.
399
They brought all these small plates, it was a small plates kind of place.
400
Small plates.
401
This refers to the style of dining where, rather than everybody getting their own meal, there are small portions, you order a lot, and everyone shares.
402
Everyone at the table has just a bite or two of each thing.
403
One of them was kimchi.
404
Kimchi pickled fermented vegetables, a Korean dish that David and I both really love.
405
It was just like cat -like reflexes.
406
I saw his foot going in and I went, shh.
407
Have you heard this phrase before?
408
If someone has cat -like reflexes, it means they react very quickly.
409
Maybe you catch something that someone else has dropped before it hits the floor.
410
They might say, "Wow, you have cat -like reflexes." We got a little work to do here.
411
Thank you.
412
leftovers.
413
Leftovers.
414
I don't mind eating leftovers for days, but David hates eating the same thing over and over.
415
What do you think?
416
Are you a leftover person?
417
Well, I can stop.
418
All right, we'll wrap it up.
419
To wrap it up means to conclude something.
420
If Stoney's playing at the playground, I might say, Stoney, we need to wrap it up and head out.
421
Stop doing this and leave.
422
Wrap it up.
423
Guys, thanks for having dinner with us.
424
If you want to see a video where we're having a meal with our kids, it's a little more chaotic,
425
check out the My Morning Routine video where we had breakfast with the baby and the toddler.
426
That video is right here, and please subscribe, we make new videos every Tuesday.
427
I love teaching you English.
428
Thank you for spending your time with me.
429
That's it, and thanks so much for using Rachel's English.

|---|---|
| Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — una acción que empezó antes y continúa | you've been watching · I've been having · I've not been having |

Pronunciación a tener en cuenta
El hablante usa 91 contracciones y formas reducidas, como I'm, don't, we're. Dilas en su forma corta, tal como las oyes.
- Los sonidos de “th”: thrive /θɹajv/, underneath /ˌʌndɚˈniθ/, tooth /tuθ/, worthy /ˈwɝ.ði/
- Los sonidos de “sh” y “zh”: flourish /ˈflʊ̈ɹ.ɪʃ/, disproportionate /dɪs.pɹəˈpɔː.ʃə.nət/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, ashamed /əˈʃeɪmd/, preposition /ˌpɹɛpəˈzɪʃən/
- Palabras largas — cuida el acento: vegetarian /vɛ.d͡ʒɪˈtɛ.ɹi.ən/, disproportionate /dɪs.pɹəˈpɔː.ʃə.nət/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, acetaminophen /əˌsitəˈmɪnəfən/, ibuprofen /ˌaɪ.bju.ˈpɹoʊ.fən/

- s + consonante al inicio — sin añadir una “e” delante: slurp /slɝp/, specialize /ˈspɛʃəˌlaɪz/, sloppy /ˈslɑ.pi/, spelling /ˈspɛl.ɪŋ/
- /v/ — no es /b/: los dientes tocan el labio inferior: vegetarian /vɛ.d͡ʒɪˈtɛ.ɹi.ən/, vowel /ˈvaʊ.əl/, vegetable /ˈvɛd͡ʒ.tə.bəl/, adjective /ˈæd͡ʒ.ɪk.tɪv/, derive /dɪˈɹaɪv/

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
