Mini English Lessons In today's mini English lesson,
2
we're going to teach you some great expressions for talking about relationships and friendships.
3
And to help me with today's lesson, I've got my very good friend, David Tennant.
4
I'm going to tell you the story of our friendship, which of course is completely true.
5
And while I tell you it, I'd like you to look out for some useful relationship expressions that we'll talk about at the end.
6
So David and I met through mutual friends several years ago we met at a party
7
and we hit it off immediately we got along really well
8
and we started hanging out all the time
9
and we spent lots of time together we became really good friends unfortunately things became a bit difficult for david
10
when he began to develop feelings for me
11
i didn't want us to become more than friends at the
12
same time david began to be very jealous of my successful teaching career in the end we fell out
13
and we stopped talking completely we lost touch for a long time
14
but after a while David began to see the error of his ways
15
and he contacted me to see if we could be friends again.
16
I agreed that we could make up and get back in touch and since then we've been the best of friends.
17
I can't imagine my life without him.
18
Thank you David for being part of today's mini English lesson.
19
So let's look at some of the expressions that we heard in my story of my friendship with David.
20
First of all, when we met, we hit it off.
21
This means we immediately liked each other.
22
We hit it off.
23
And then I said that we got along really well.
24
If you get along with someone, you have a good, friendly relationship.
25
You could use it about your colleagues, your family.
26
You can also use it in the negative, like, uh, I don't really get along with them.
27
When I talked about David's romantic feelings for me, I used the expression, he developed feelings for me.
28
We don't need to say romantic.
29
Everybody understands that that's what we mean.
30
But I didn't return his feelings.
31
So you can develop feelings for someone and you could return them or not return them.
32
I didn't return them, which means I didn't want us to be more than friends.
33
Again, this means a romantic relationship.
34
So more than friends is a useful expression we can use.
35
When we had an argument, I said we fell out.
36
If you fall out with someone, you stop being friends.
37
But after some time, we made up.
38
If you make up with someone, you become friends again.
39
Similarly when we stopped being friends we lost touch, we stopped talking and then afterwards we got back in touch.
40
We started talking again.
41
Finally I said that I can't imagine my life without him.
42
This is a lovely expression to show how important somebody is for you and that one is completely true.
43
So there you go loads of great expressions that you can use to talk about all different kinds of relationships.
44
Now you just need to go out there make some more English friends so you can make use of them.
45
Bye!

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
