2
Pretty girls don't do drama unless we wanna, it'll be depending on the day.
3
Pretty girls stick to the defender, no I'm a defender, never let it catch no strength.
4
This that pretty girl mantra, she's that stun, I'll make you wanna swing both ways.
5
You asked for it, and you got it.
6
Today, we're learning English with Blackpink's Jennie.
7
And boy, is she amazing.
8
Her song Mantra, which we just saw a clip of, actually topped iTunes charts in 47 countries and broke Spotify streaming records.
9
We'll watch three fascinating and funny interviews with Jenny and learn all of the advanced expressions.
10
Now you should also know
11
that this lesson comes with its very own vocabulary flashcards covering all of the key words and expressions that we'll learn today.
12

16
Now let's watch the first interview where Jenny tells Shawn Evans about the inspiration
17
that she took from Shakespeare's play As You Like It when producing her solo album.
18
When I first read the play and saw how they broke down into seven different stages,
19
what I was coming from was also the seven years of being in a group of Blackpink
20
and how every little event has changed me over time.
21
I've had my ups and downs.
22
I've had my rollercoaster emotions of when I loved music, when I hated music.
23
And every moment in between was the important things that got me here.
24
So I started just breaking myself down.
25
And I guess it just inspired me to look at myself in a different way and
26
really dive into what got me here and who I am.
27
If that makes sense.
28
I am following you all the way.
29
So we heard some amazing expressions from Jennie in her hit song Mantra and in the interview that we just watched.
30
I wanted to teach you a couple great slang expressions from the song first.
31
To flaunt means to show off something that you're proud of in a confident, bold way.
32
When you flaunt something, you're deliberately displaying it because you want people to notice and admire it.
33
Jenny is encouraging her listeners to flaunt themselves, to confidently show off who they are without hiding.
34
Check out this other example from Bruno Mars.
35
A stunner is someone who is so attractive or impressive that they literally stun people.
36
Think of the weapons in police carry.
37
This is sometimes called a stun gun, which uses electricity to leave the target unable to move.
38
So, imagine someone who is so beautiful they leave others speechless or amazed, almost as if they've been zapped.
39
If you say someone is stunning or is a stunner, which can be pronounced stunna as she does in the song, it's a powerful compliment that suggests someone has serious star quality.
40
These words perfectly capture the empowering message of mantra.
41
It's all about embracing your confidence and owning your beauty.
42
Now let's move on to the interview clips where we heard
43
Jennie use some amazing expressions talking about the inspiration for her work.
44
When I first read the play and saw how they broke down into seven different stages,
45
what I was coming from was also the seven years of being in a group of Blackpink.
46
To break down something means to analyze it or examine it in detail, separating it into smaller parts to better understand it.
47
Jenny is talking about how Shakespeare's play, As You Like It, analyzed the seven stages of life.
48
But we hear another meaning later in the interview.
49
Listen again.
50
of just breaking myself down
51
and I guess it just inspired me to look at myself in a different way
52
and and really dive into what got me here and who I am.
53
Now when you break yourself down it means to examine your own thoughts, feelings and experiences deeply.
54
That's exactly what Jenny did after seven years with Blackpink when they decided to take a break.
55
Now here's a fun fact about Jenny she actually spent five
56
years living in New Zealand as a child from ages 8 to 13 where she attended ACG Purnell College despite
57
that I have to say I watched a lot of Jenny interviews preparing for this lesson
58
because it was kind of difficult to find ones where she used advanced vocabulary
59
and expressions so even though she lived in English-speaking country she fell into the same trap
60
that most English learners do which is getting stuck on the intermediate plateau always using the same words and expressions.
61
This can leave your English sounding dry, basic, and not effectively communicating the details of what you want to say.
62
The truth is you've already learned some useful advanced expressions like flaunt, stun, and breakdown.
63
But if you don't practice these, you'll forget them faster than a k-pop dance trend.
64
Want to actually use these expressions naturally when you speak English?
65
Well if you want to sound confident, simply knowing them is not enough.
66
You need to practice them until they're automatic.
67
That is exactly why we created a set of flashcards for you that is available for free on our app.
68
The magic is in the science behind it.
69
The app uses smart technology to bring back words for review right when you're about to forget them.
70
It's like having a personal English coach right in your pocket.
71
Just 10 to 15 minutes a day, and these words will be at the tip of your tongue when you need them.
72
Super easy.
73
No more, I know that word but can't remember it moments.
74
So click the link down in the description below to get your free vocabulary flashcards right now on the RealLife English app.
75
Your future fluent self will thank you.
76
And now check out this super common expression that Jenny used here.
77
I've had my ups and downs.
78
I've had my rollercoaster emotions of when I loved music,
79
when I hated music, and and every moment in between was the important things that got me here.
80
When you have your ups and downs, it means you experience both good times and bad times, successes and failures.
81
Life isn't always smooth.
82
Sometimes you're on top of the world, and sometimes you face challenges.
83
Jenny's being honest about her journey, which shows real maturity.
84
Share out this other example.
85
Well, I owe you a lot, Davey.
86
I know we've had some ups and downs, but I probably wouldn't be going to college if it weren't for you.
87
What a vivid way to describe feelings.
88
I've had my roller coaster emotions of when I loved music.
89
Roller coaster emotions refers to feelings that go up and down dramatically, just like riding a roller coaster.
90
One moment you're high with excitement, the next you might feel sad or scared.
91
It perfectly captures how intense and and unpredictable emotions can be, especially in the demanding world of K-pop.
92
Did you know that Jennie trained for six years before debuting with Blackpink?
93
That's a lot of ups and downs.
94
She once said that every month, trainees had to perform for the company's CEO and producers to evaluate their progress.
95
Talk about rollercoaster emotions.
96
Next, let's check out some of Jennie's mastery of connected speech.
97
That's how natives and advanced speakers cut, reduce, and link our words together in fluent speech.
98
And it's absolutely essential for you you want to speak naturally and understand fast native speech.
99
I've had my roller coaster emotions of when I loved music, when I hated music.
100
First off, she said hated with a tap t
101
which sounds like a soft d sound like in butter or cat and dog.
102
So instead of hated it sounds like hated.
103
Next, she linked the n from when to the pronoun i.
104
So it sounds like one word. When i. When i.
105
Let's put it all together.
106
When I hated music.
107
When I hated music.
108
Your speaking will only get better with lots and lots of practice.
109
So try to say it just like Jenny.
110
When I hated music.
111
When I hated music.
112
I started just breaking myself down
113
and I guess it just inspired me to look at myself in a different way
114
and and really dive into what got me here and who I am.
115
If that makes sense.
116
I am following you all the way.
117
When Sean says I'm following you all the way, he's politely confirming that he completely understood what Jenny is explaining and agrees with her thought process.
118
It's like saying I'm with you or I get it completely.
119
Check out this other example.
120
Address only the patient you are here to see.
121
Do not open windows, do not close doors.
122
Are you following?
123
Yeah, yeah, following.
124
The next clip we'll watch is actually Jenny interviewing Billie Eilish.
125
In it, she recommends the best traditional Korean food for Billie to try while she's visiting Korea.
126
So, to my vegan friends, what I like to recommend is Pibin Bap.
127
Because it could be made with all sorts of vegetable of your choice and it doesn't obviously have meaning.
128
But if you get any time, I would like to recommend you some Pibin Bap.
129
Please, I'm so in.
130
Well, Billy dropped some really casual slang here.
131
Watch again.
132
I need like some recommendations.
133
I feel like I want to have like true good ass Korean food.
134
When you put ass after an adjective like this, it's an intensifier.
135
It makes the adjective stronger.
136
So good ass is a creative way to say really good.
137
But if you want to be more formal, you'd better say excellent instead.
138
This is very casual language that you'd use with friends, not in formal situations.
139
Billie is known for speaking casually like this.
140
Check out her lesson with her where you can learn a lot more slang like this
141
because it could be made with all sorts of vegetable of your choice and it doesn't obviously have meaning.
142
Obviously is such a useful word that natives use a ton.
143
It means clearly or of course, something that should be easy to understand or expect.
144
When Jenny says bibimbap obviously doesn't have meat, she's pointing out that she clearly would not recommend any dish that did because Billy is a vegan.
145
Here's a quick pronunciation tip.
146
Notice how Jenny says obviously.
147
Many native speakers actually pronounce it more like obviously, with slight reduction.
148
The second syllable often gets shortened to casual speech, or even shorten it to just obvi.
149
But if you get any time, I would like to recommend you some baby bab.
150
Please, I'm so in.
151
And here's another great casual expression.
152
I'm so in means I'm definitely interested, or count me in.
153
It's an enthusiastic way to say yes to something.
154
Billy is excited about trying authentic Korean food with Jenny.
155
This expression is perfect for showing enthusiasm about plans, activities, or ideas.
156
Much more energetic than just saying yes.
157
Check out these examples.
158
He's flying us all to Lake Como, it's Clooney's birthday, so let's get on that jet!
159
I'm so in!
160
Our senior year could be the last time we're all together in the same place.
161
And I don't want to let anything ruin that.
162
Agreed.
163
I'm in.
164
I'm so in.
165
Me too.
166
Did you get to try any Korean food or?
167
At the start of this clip, we can hear a masterful use of connected speech from Jenny.
168
First, there's some morphing.
169
When we have a D followed by a Y sound, it often morphs into a J sound.
170
We don't say, did you, but did you.
171
When we have a T or D followed by another T or D, we usually would just say one of them.
172
So, get to becomes get to.
173
Let's put it all together. Did you get to?
174
Did you get to?
175
Listen to Jennie again and try to pronounce this phrase just like her.
176
Finally, let's take a look at this hilarious conversation from Jennie's chicken shop date with Amelia de Moldenburg.
177
This is very intimate.
178
This is very intimate, yes, because it's a date.
179
I can feel it.
180
The tension?
181
The sexual chemistry?
182
It's there.
183
Or maybe it's just the smell of chicken that's throwing you off.
184
I've never really had any pets apart from a hamster.
185
Have you ever had a hamster?
186
I currently have a hamster.
187
You have a hamster?
188
I do have a hamster.
189
What?
190
Is the hamster here?
191
Unfortunately not.
192
What's the hamster called?
193
Baddie.
194
She's a baddie?
195
Yeah, I had to name her a baddie.
196
She's just sort of like posting thirst traps the whole time.
197
She basically just runs under wheels all day.
198
What made you want to get a hamster?
199
Companionship?
200
Oh yeah they're really known for being great companions aren't they hamsters?
201
The start of this interview absolutely cracks me up.
202
The tension?
203
The sexual chemistry?
204
It's there.
205
Amelia starts off using Jenny's introverted personality to create some humorous awkwardness.
206
So tension refers to a feeling of stress, nervousness, or anticipation that air between people.
207
It's like an invisible force that makes a situation feel charged or uncomfortable.
208
In this case they're playfully talking about romantic tension during their date.
209
Sexual chemistry describes the natural romantic or physical attraction between two people.
210
When there's chemistry people feel drawn to each other in a romantic way.
211
Amelia is just joking around here, it's all part of the playful format of chicken shop date.
212
Or maybe it's just the smell of chicken that's throwing you off.
213
Now this is clever.
214
To throw someone off it means to confuse them, distract them or make them feel uncomfortable or uncertain.
215
For example, Jenny might be thrown off while performing if she didn't sleep enough.
216
She would not be able to bring her normal skill
217
and talent to her dancing and singing because sleepiness is throwing her off.
218
I can do the evolution of dance dance.
219
That sounds good!
220
Do you need some music?
221
No, actually music would just throw me off.
222
I need complete silence, okay?
223
Amelia is jokingly suggesting that maybe it's not romantic tension at all.
224
Maybe Jenny is just distracted or thrown off by the smell of fried chicken in the restaurant.
225
This is such witty humor.
226
Taking something that seems serious, the tension, and giving it a silly twist.
227
I've never really had any pets apart from a hamster.
228
Apart from means except from or other than.
229
So Amelia is saying she's never had any pets like a dog or cat, with the exception of a hamster.
230
It's a more formal way to say except for and and sounds quite sophisticated.
231
Here's another example.
232
You read minds.
233
I can read every mind in this room, apart from yours.
234
Just money, sex, money, sex, cat. And then you, nothing.
235
Interesting fact, Jenny actually had two dogs named Kai and Kuma, though sadly, Kai passed away.
236
She's also known to be an only child who grew up in Seoul's upscale Chong Dam Dong district.
237
Sorry if I butchered that pronunciation.
238
Now let's check out some British connected speech with Amelia.
239
With questions like this, you will almost always find connected speech.
240
First off, Brits often like to drop their H's, which Amelia did here with have and had.
241
She links have and you together, and it sounds like one word.
242
A-view.
243
A-view.
244
A reduces to just a schwa sound, uh, and links to had.
245
Ada.
246
Ada.
247
Also, notice that in British English, they usually have a non-rhotic R.
248
So, ever sounds like ever.
249
Ever.
250
Wow, that was a lot.
251
Let me see if I can pull off this British pronunciation.
252
Have you ever had a hamster?
253
Have you ever had a hamster?
254
This is really useful because you can try repurposing it for many different questions.
255
Take a look at each of these examples and try to think of how a native would say it.
256
And then you'll hear me say it
257
and I'll use more of an American accent instead of trying to butcher a British accent.
258
Have you ever had a pet?
259
Have you ever had a boyfriend?
260
Have you ever had a heart attack?
261
Now improve your fluency.
262
to Amelia say these with actual correct British pronunciation and try to say it just like her.
263
What's hamster called?
264
Baddie.
265
She's a baddie.
266
Yeah.
267
This is the British way to ask someone's name or the name of something.
268
Instead of what's the hamster's name, they say what's the hamster called.
269
Both are correct, but called is more common in British English.
270
In modern slang, a baddie refers to an attractive, confident woman who knows her worth.
271
It's actually a compliment.
272
Calling someone a baddie means they're stylish, fierce, and empowered.
273
It's interesting that Jenny chose this name for her hamster.
274
Very on-brand for someone who's known as a fashion icon.
275
She just sort of like posting thirst traps the whole time.
276
This is hilarious.
277
A thirst trap is a social media post, usually a photo, that's designed to attract attention and compliments, typically featuring someone looking attractive.
278
We'd imagine a woman who is a baddie doing this on her Instagram.
279
Amelia is jokingly asking if the hamster is constantly showing off and trying to get attention, like posting attractive photos on Instagram.
280
It's such a funny way to talk about a hamster's behavior, comparing it to social media culture.
281
What made you want to get a hamster?
282
Companionship.
283
This is a beautiful, more formal word that means friendship and the comfort of having someone, or in this case a pet, to spend time with.
284
Jenny want a hamster for the emotional support and connection that comes from having a companion.
285
However, Amelia playfully teases Jenny saying they're really known for being great companions.
286
Oh yeah, they're really known for being great companions, aren't they, hamsters?
287
If you pay attention to her tone, you can tell it's sarcasm.
288
What she really means is that Jenny could have chosen a better pet if she's looking for a companion.
289
Alright, let's wrap up the scene with a final bit of connected speech.
290
What made you want to get a hamster?
291
So again, we have a super reduced question.
292
In American, and many variants of British English, we use a glottal T in what?
293
We cut the sound off at the back of the throat.
294
So not what, but what, what.
295
We have some fantastic sound morphing with made you.
296
When we encounter a D and Y together, they often become a j sound.
297
So instead of made you, we hear made you.
298
You probably know that want to often becomes wanna, which happens here.
299
And finally, we have another glottal T in get, and it links to a.
300
Get a.
301
Get a.
302
Amazing job.
303
That was another phrase packed with connected speech.
304
Let's put it together.
305
What made you want to get a hamster?
306
What made you want to get a hamster?
307
Again, try repurposing this question with connected speech.
308
What made you want to become a doctor?
309
What made you want to move to the USA?
310
What made you want to take a K-pop dance class?
311
And finally listen to Amelia again and try to say it just like her.
312
What made you want to get a hamster?
313
What made you want to get a hamster?
314
Wow, you are on fire today!
315
And we're not done yet.
316
Actually now comes the most important part.
317
You're going to watch all the interview clips again without subtitles to test your comprehension after all that hard studying.
318
And let's make it a bit harder, why don't we?
319
I'm gonna ask you some quiz questions along the way.
320
Let's go!
321
When I first read the play and saw how they broke down into seven different stages...
322
What does break down mean when talking about analyzing something?
323
To destroy completely?
324
To examine in detail by separating into parts?
325
To become emotional?
326
What I was coming from was also the seven years of being in a group of Blackpink and
327
how every little event has changed me over time.
328
Fill in the blank.
329
I've had my ups and downs.
330
I've had my rollercoaster emotions of when I loved music,
331
when I hated music, and every moment in between was the important things that got me here.
332
So I started just breaking myself down, and I guess it just inspired me to look at myself in a different way
333
and really dive into what got me here and who I am.
334
If that makes sense.
335
I am following you all the way.
336
If someone says I'm following you all the way they mean they're walking behind you They're stalking you on social media.
337
They completely understand and agree
338
Did you try did you get to try any Korean food
339
or was there any Korean food that you tried before that you liked maybe I need like some Recommendations.
340
I feel like I want to have like true true, good ass Korean food.
341
True or false?
342
Good ass is appropriate language to use in formal business meetings.
343
So to my vegan friends, what I like to recommend is Pibimbap.
344
Mm-hmm.
345
because it could be made with all sorts of vegetable of your choice
346
and it doesn't obviously have meaning but if you get any time I would like to recommend you some baby babs Please,
347
I'm so in Give an example of when you might say,
348
I'm so in, in your own life This is very intimate.
349
This is very intimate, yes, because it's a date.
350
I can feel it.
351
The tension, the sexual chemistry.
352
It's there.
353
Or maybe it's just the smell of chicken that's throwing you off.
354
If a loud noise during your presentation throws you off, it means it distracts and confuses you, it makes you angry, it physically pushes you away.
355
I've never really had any pets apart from a hamster.
356
Have you ever had a hamster?
357
I currently have a hamster.
358
You have a hamster?
359
I do have a hamster.
360
What?
361
Is the hamster here?
362
Unfortunately not.
363
What's the hamster called?
364
Baddie.
365
She's a baddie?
366
Yeah.
367
I had to name her a baddie.
368
She's just sort of like posting thirst traps the whole time.
369
She basically just runs on the wheels all day.
370
What made you want to get a hamster?
371
Companionship.
372
Oh yeah, they're really known for being great companions, aren't they, hamsters?
373
from around the globe cannot be wrong.
374
This method really works.
375
And if you want to remember these new expressions that we learned today forever, the best way to do that is with the RealLife English app
376
and you can get the vocabulary flashcards with this lesson with
377
Jennie for free by clicking the link down in the description below.
378
And finally, if you want to continue your learning, then next I highly recommend you check out this fun lesson with Lisa.
379
I think for me the big difference is language
380
because English is not my first language so it's challenging for me to answer
381
or doing interview in English yeah
382
but you know what's amazing about you is you know you
383
speak English you speak Thai you speak Korean you're conversational Japanese conversational and Chinese I've heard you rattle off French before

¿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.
