Shadowing Practice: Mall Vocabulary In English - Learn English Speaking with Video

Hey guys, it's Arianita La Gringa and welcome back to my YouTube channel.

Today I'm gonna take you guys with me to go shopping

and we are going to go shopping at the biggest mall in my city of Cincinnati,

Ohio called Kenwood Town Center.

This mall is an indoor shopping mall and that means that all of the stores are inside.

So come along with me and let's go

and learn some shopping vocabulary at the mall i just entered

through the main entrance of the mall this small has four entrances

but this is the main entrance also it feels so nice

and refreshing to be inside the mall because this small has ac

and lots of cool air to cool me down

because right now we are in the middle of the summer

and it's scorching hot it feels so nice to be inside

when you walk inside the main entrance to my left the first thing

that you see is a restaurant called the cheesecake factory

and they're famous for their cheesecake here at the mall they have a ton of different restaurants

but they also have a food court which i'll show you guys later

but let's continue on with the video

when you enter the mall you can walk up these stairs right behind me

or you can choose to walk up this huge ramp

and why do they have a ramp

and a set of stairs well they have a ramp

so people who have a disability or people who use a wheelchair

or a cane can go down this ramp instead of walking up the stairs

when you go to the mall you may know exactly what you want to buy

and what store you want to go to well behind me is a directory

and it has a huge map of all the stores

that they have inside this mall

so it makes it a lot easier for you to go

shopping this directory shows you all of the different sections of things you want to buy

if you want to buy something specific clothing for men you would look at the apparel for men

or if you want to look at a store

that has clothing for both men and women you would look at the section

that has apparel for men and women

so they have different sections like electronics eyewear jewelry and accessories

that you can see in this directory the main entrance leads

me to the upper level right now i'm on the upper level

and this small has two levels the upper level

and the lower level there are three different ways to go

downstairs the first one is using the stairs going down the stairs

and the second one i'll show you but first you guys have to name it so come along with me

I'm going to use this to go downstairs to the lower level,

but first I'll give you three seconds to tell me what it's called.

This is called an escalator.

Escalator, and I'm going to take you guys with me to go down.

I just went down the escalator.

Now I'm on the lower level of the shopping mall,

and behind me is the food court.

As you can see, there is a sign that says we are at the food court.

So let's see what kind of restaurants and fast food chains that they have here.

In this food court, they have fast food chains and local franchises at the mall.

So I'm going to take a look to see what type of different fast food chains that they have.

Also, they don't have restaurants here.

Normally, the restaurants are by the exit of the mall,

like the Cheesecake Factory was by the main entrance of the mall.

So let's take a look at the food that they have.

Right here is Sparrow.

It's a fast food chain and they sell Italian food like pizza.

Here I'm at Sparrow and they sell pizza.

I wanted to ask you guys,

how much does one slice of pizza cost you guys in your country?

Here in America, it costs $4.99 for one slice of pizza.

Do you guys think that is cheap or do you guys think that is expensive?

If you wanted to make it a combo with an extra side and a drink,

that would be $8.99.

Let me know if you guys think that's expensive.

Let's keep on moving on and see what other franchises they have at this food court.

This is a local franchise called Gold Star Chili,

and they sell a hot dog with chili and cheese on top.

If you guys saw my baseball video,

you guys would know exactly what I'm talking about,

and that is called a Coney.

Of course you can't miss out on ordering chinese food at

the mall i think almost every mall sells chinese food

but let's keep moving on

and see what else they have how do you call this franchise behind me this is called popeyes

and they sell a lot of chicken

and their main competitor is kfc kentucky fried chicken

and behind me are two of the most popular franchises in the u.s They're called Chick-fil-A and Chipotle.

As you can see, they're pretty popular because people are waiting in line,

long lines at the mall.

Compared to the other fast food chains,

these are more popular because there is a line.

Walking away from the food courts,

now I'm going to show you two different places where you can do your shopping.

The first place is right behind me.

This is called a store.

This store sells hats.

And another place where you can go shopping is this thing

right here what is it called this is called a kiosk

and this kiosk sells things for your phone like phone cases

and chargers and it's a lot smaller compared to a store now

that we've been to the upper level the lower level the food court

and you guys know the difference between a store

and a kiosk let's keep on moving on

and see what this mall has to offer for their shoppers

right behind me is one of my favorite stores at this shopping mall

and it's called akira also they sell clothes just for women

and these clothes are trendy which means these clothes are in style

100

and behind me are clothes that are pink

101

because right now the barbie movie is trendy also how do you call this person

102

that is wearing clothes that is called a mannequin mannequin and why do stores have mannequins by their window.

103

Well stores like clothing stores have mannequins so

104

when people walk around through the mall they can look at the mannequins

105

and see wow what nice clothes they have

106

and maybe they can even enter the store and buy the things they're looking at.

107

Now I'm here with Tanya,

108

my lady, and I'm going to ask them what are their favorite stores at this mall.

109

I would say Foot Locker because I like shoes or I like to go to Chipotle.

110

Because is an informal way of saying because

111

so the correct way to say this is I would say Foot Locker

112

because I like shoes or I like to go to Chipotle.

113

I say Hollister's Foot Locker they be having a lot of good stuff.

114

I say is incorrect grammar.

115

The correct phrase is I would say.

116

Hollister's is not the official name of the store.

117

It's called Hollister.

118

They be having is informal English.

119

A lot of is an informal contraction of a lot of.

120

The correct way to say everything is, I would say Hollister.

121

Foot Locker has a lot of good stuff.

122

And what do you like to do at the mall?

123

What do you normally do here?

124

We like, we chill, like we be hanging out with our friends and just buying stuff,

125

just living life.

126

Yeah, walking around, getting food,

127

bad stuff, shopping, basically just hanging out.

128

Awesome, thank you guys.

129

Now I'm at a shoe store,

130

so I'm going to see what they have.

131

This is a sandal, and Birkenstocks are one of the most popular sandals right now

132

because they are very comfortable for your feet.

133

This shoe store also has shoes like Converse.

134

These are Converse.

135

They also have Crocs with holes in them.

136

This is a video game store.

137

Come along with me and let's see what are the most popular video games that they have.

138

These video games are for the newest PS5 so let's see how much each game costs.

139

This game costs $29.99.

140

This video game costs $89.

141

Would you guys pay $89 for a video game?

142

Let me know down below.

143

This store sells pre-owned video games,

144

so this just means that people have used these before,

145

and this is a good way

146

if you have had a video game for a really long time and you want to sell it to the store,

147

and now the store will resell this video game for a cheaper price.

148

This price is $14.

149

This is definitely cheaper compared to the newer video games.

150

They also have video games for different consoles like Xbox.

151

And I believe that these video games are a bit cheaper.

152

This store also has another console called Nintendo.

153

So they have a TV right here.

154

And with this controller, I can try out some of their games like Mario Kart

155

or I can play Donkey Kong or Minecraft

156

and I can try out a game to see if I want to buy it.

157

This is a store that sells athletic gear.

158

Here they sell Nike, Air Jordan,

159

Adidas, Puma, Crocs, Converse, Reebok,

160

Champion, Sony, Timberland, and Sonetti.

161

Now let's go inside.

162

These shoes are called gym shoes or sneakers and they cost $160.

163

This store sells athletic gear like sweatshirts, shorts, and sweatpants.

164

I'm going to see the price.

165

This tag says $100.

166

These shorts cost $70 and these sweatpants cost $95.

167

And this store behind me is Macy's.

168

This is a department store.

169

And what is a department store?

170

A department store is a large store located at the end

171

of a mall this store sells things like clothes perfume cologne

172

cosmetics home accessories jewelry anything you can name up inside of a huge store

173

so let's see what they have a department store sells things

174

like girls clothing for little girls they also sell toys they have beauty products right here

175

and if you get lost

176

and you need to find something they have signs on the ceiling with the clothing they have the different ages

177

so if you're a girl

178

and you're 7 to 16 years old this would probably be

179

your size inside this department store they have a starbucks kiosk

180

just a little mini starbucks store in this small they also have a bigger starbucks store

181

and that lets you guys know

182

that here americans love their coffee they are coffee lovers are

183

you guys a coffee lover let me know down below there

184

are three ways you can move from the lower level to the upper level at the mall.

185

The first way is going up the stairs,

186

the second way is up the escalator,

187

and the third way is this.

188

What is this called?

189

This is called an elevator.

190

Elevator!

191

And I'm going to move from the lower level to the upper level.

192

I'm going to push this button.

193

I went up the elevator.

194

Here at Macy's they have a lot of cosmetic products and you can ask someone for help in case you need it.

195

Hi, I'm looking for a lipstick but I want a pink lipstick.

196

All right, all of our options are right here.

197

Perfect, thank you.

198

There are two ways to pronounce the highlighted word.

199

You can pronounce it like our, our.

200

For example, it's my dog and your dog.

201

It's our dog.

202

The other way to pronounce this word is our, our, our dog.

203

In America, our is the most common pronunciation.

204

All right, all of our options are right here.

205

Now we're on the upper level and I found the Lego store.

206

So this is a toy store for kids or for adults.

207

So let's see what is the most expensive Lego set inside.

208

I wasn't allowed to record inside the Lego store,

209

the toy store, but I found one of their most expensive sets of Legos,

210

the Eiffel Tower at $629.99.

211

Is that pricey?

212

Let me know.

213

Also, that price tag, $629, does not include the tax.

214

It can get very expensive when you're shopping for items over $100.

215

Over here, they have the Darth Vader display,

216

and that is just for display,

217

but you can go inside and take a picture with it.

218

When I pass by this store,

219

it smells like a candy shop,

220

but it's not a candy shop.

221

This store, Bath & Body Works,

222

sells things like candles, perfume,

223

shampoo, conditioner, everything that would make your house smell so good.

224

I'm going to pop in the store and check out their products and smell their candles.

225

This is a beautiful display,

226

but it looks kind of weird.

227

You know why?

228

Because this display is just for Halloween.

229

Right now we are in the month of July.

230

I'm recording this right now in July and they have things for Halloween.

231

July, August, September, October.

232

We're almost four months away from Halloween and they have a huge display.

233

I'm going to smell this candle and it's called pumpkin pecan waffles.

234

It smells like pumpkin pecan waffle.

235

I was making fun of all of the products they have out for Halloween

236

but I picked out something I'm going to buy.

237

This is a pumpkin but it lights up and I think you can see a skeleton light up inside.

238

So I'm going to take this pumpkin and pay at the cash register over there.

239

There's no one in line right now so I'm just going to walk up to the counter.

240

Now I'm going to pay with my phone using Apple Pay.

241

receipt is fine in the bag thank you thank you

242

so much i spent 35 on a pumpkin

243

and that's the good thing about going inside the stores

244

and checking things out because you never know what you're going to find

245

or buy if you're a woman you probably know what this store is this is sephora

246

and they're famous for their makeup products i'm not going to go inside the store

247

because i'm not on a shopping spree i'm not trying to

248

buy everything in each store i'm just trying to walk around now i'm inside a clothing store called abracombie

249

and fitch and i want to try on this shirt to see

250

if it fits or to see if it's too small for me i'm not sure

251

if i'm going to buy it or like it

252

but you can try things on at the fitting room it's also called the dressing room

253

so come along with me

254

and i'm going to try this on they have many fitting rooms

255

but they gave me fitting room 107 so i'm gonna go ahead

256

and try it on i just tried on this white shirt

257

but i didn't like it so i'm going to put it back on the hanger

258

and now i'm going to check out another store now i'm

259

at the apple store this is the electronics store at the mall

260

and it's always busy as you can see behind me there

261

are people inside trying to buy things like phones ipads tablets computers

262

you name it now i'm at the other end of the

263

mall behind me are the luxury brands like louis vuitton gucci

264

and rolex they have a lot of security guards here

265

because as you guys know these luxury brands are very expensive

266

and they are out of my budget

267

which means i cannot afford these items inside the store also

268

the furniture behind me is very comfortable for people shopping at these stores

269

and feels like luxury compared to other parts of the mall where they have seating sections.

270

I don't think I can record inside the store but I'm going to try to find the most expensive Gucci item.

271

Of course when I entered the Gucci store I wasn't able to record anything inside

272

and when I looked at the shoes there weren't any price tag.

273

That means it was out of my budget.

274

I'm going to go to this store right here called Nordstrom.

275

It's another department store like Macy's but they have a lot of things on sale

276

and it's a little bit more in my budget now i'm

277

at the end of the mall at my very last store called nordstrom

278

and they have things on sale so on sale means at a reduced price

279

so i'm going to see things on sale to see

280

if it fits my budget when something is on sale

281

that means it is at a reduced price for example these boots right here were 170 and after the sale 100 dollars.

282

You can find things on sale like that all over the store.

283

They have different brands at different tables and you can try to find things that would fit your budget.

284

And what happens if someone takes something and walks out the store?

285

Well that is called shoplifting and they have a security system right here that prevents people from shoplifting items.

286

If you walk past this security system the alarm will sound

287

and the whole store will know that you took something from the store without paying for that item.

288

Okay guys, I'm finally outside the mall

289

and I hope you guys have learned a lot of shopping mall vocab inside the mall.

290

I hope you guys can go ahead and give my video a like,

291

a thumbs up, go ahead and subscribe,

292

and give me a super thanks if you like to support my channel.

293

Thanks to you guys, I'm able to buy this beautiful orange pumpkin for Halloween.

294

I love you guys and I'll see you guys next week.

295

Bye!

¿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.
