75
80 ,000 seats.
76
The Korean fans were all together in one section, a sea of red, and they were chanting, Dae, Han, Min, Guk.
77

78
Even I learned the chant.
79

80
I was very confused, but very happy.
81
And then Tom got hungry, of course.
82
Lunchtime, Lily.
83
A man needs energy.
84
So Tom bought a huge hot dog.
85
Huge.
86
With extra mustard.
87
Remember this detail, everyone.
88
The hot dog with extra mustard.
89
This is important.
90
That's clue number one.
91
I said nothing.
92
And then we found our seats, the match started, and the rest is history.
93
The best day ever, even with the thing that happened.
94
Especially with the thing that happened.
95
Okay, did you notice something about our story?
96
Tom and I were using a special grammar.
97
Today's grammar is the past simple tense.
98
Past simple.
99
It's the grammar we use to tell stories about finished actions, things that happened yesterday, last week, or last month.
100
Let me show you.
101
I said, "We woke up at 6.
102
I wore my red jersey.
103
We saw the stadium." Past forms.
104
The action is finished.
105
It happened, and now it's over.
106
The good news is many verbs are easy.
107
You just add -ed at the end.
108
For example, watch becomes watched.
109
We watched the match.
110
"Cheer" becomes "cheered." The fans cheered for 90 minutes.
111
And "play" becomes "played." South Korea played a fantastic match.
112
But Lily, some verbs are a little naughty.
113
They don't follow the rules.
114
Yes, the irregular verbs.
115
Go becomes went.
116
We went to the stadium, not go -ed, went.
117
Buy becomes bought.
118
I bought a delicious hot dog.
119
And eat becomes ate.
120
Tom ate that hot dog very, very fast.
121
Clue number two, everyone.
122
Lily, you're giving them too much.
123
Okay, okay.
124
So remember the pattern: we went, we saw, we cheered, we ate.
125
When you tell a story about your day, use the past simple.
126
Try it today.
127
Write one sentence in the comments about your weekend using the past simple.
128
For example, I watched a football match.
129

¿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.
