hello aubry how's it going today i'm great how are you
2
lindsay fantastic i am super excited to talk about idioms in today's episode have you ever realized
3
that you were saying an expression
4
or an idiom incorrectly yeah this has happened to me a
5
couple times in fact the other day my partner meant to say bits
6
and pieces and said bits and pizzas and pizzas like the pizza you eat
7
and we laughed so hard
8
because i mean it happens sometimes you just accidentally say it incorrectly
9
or sometimes you've been hearing it incorrectly
10
so you say it incorrectly oh my gosh there's definitely a number of these
11
that I have always said incorrectly and then
12
when I'm like 25 I realized
13
that all of a sudden I've been saying this wrong my entire life yes I'm excited
14
that we're gonna get into this one of the ones we're
15
teaching today I've said wrong my entire life yeah someone pointed it out
16
and I was like what what is an acorn by the way
17
that word egg corn what the heck does
18
that mean it's a weird word right these are called egg corns
19
which means you're saying the wrong word as a result of mishearing something
20
and this happens native english speakers will incorrectly say an idiom
21
because they heard it wrong and often like
22
if you see it written then you're like oh i get it
23
but when you hear it it sounds like different words
24
so you make a mistake interesting this can happen with songs
25
too right absolutely misheard lyrics yeah it happens with kids too a lot of times with misheard lyrics
26
but adults as well and then
27
when you're all of a sudden singing along to a song with a friend
28
and they they sing it differently you think oh who's wrong
29
who's right who's wrong here we gotta google it's pretty funny
30
so i mean why are idioms important
31
when it comes to the b2 level aubrey what does it matter yeah
32
when we're at
33
that b1 level it's really easy to make these mistakes with idioms it's hard to feel confident using them
34
because they do have to be used word for word or the meaning is lost.
35
It doesn't make sense.
36
So it's really important that we get to B2 where we're more comfortable with these very native natural phrases.
37
Yeah.
38
So B2 is that place where we can get stuck.
39
It's that upper intermediate place.
40
Aubrey, you probably experienced it in French, right?
41
I know that I've experienced it in Spanish to some extent where I'm just using the same words, the safe words the easy words
42
and i'm not pushing myself i'll never get to advance
43
if i don't push through that b2 level right
44
and that's keeping us from having those interesting
45
and deep conversations in a second language we want you to have those conversations in english
46
but if you get stagnant there at
47
that intermediate level that's difficult to do yes stagnant is the key word right stagnant
48
or there's really a plateau at the upper intermediate level
49
that i think a lot of our listeners might be stuck in
50
that place and when we get that to
51
that place to get past it we actually need a plan right aubrey it's not exactly at
52
that point it's it's you have to do more than just jumping around the internet
53
and consuming entertaining content exactly right the same old thing you've
54
been doing is not pushing you there you need a plan you need really good courses
55
and lessons there's going to be more that's required to push you to those advanced levels Yep.
56
And that's why we launched, we are launching our brand new B2 English fluency course.
57
And this week we have a special deal because it is shiny
58
and new is the first time we've ever launched it, Aubrey.
59
How are you feeling, by the way, about this course launch?
60
I'm so excited about this course because we were really able to interview some very interesting people.
61
It's full of conversations with some of the most interesting people we know and none of it's scripted.
62
So it's native natural conversations, which will really push you past that level where you're just stagnant with those kind of scripted conversations.
63
You got it.
64
Yes.
65
Interesting conversations, interesting people eventually creates confidence and connection.
66
That's what we're all about guys at the end of the
67
episode a little later in a few minutes after we go
68
through these idioms we're gonna talk about the special deal that's available this week only all right
69
so hang on guys
70
but first let's talk about a couple of egg corns right yep exactly what's the first one
71
that you that you have made a mistake with Aubrey yes
72
so this is chomping at the bit
73
which means you're impatient we'll say oh I'm really chomping at
74
the bit to go on this vacation means you can't wait for it to happen.
75
Have you heard this?
76
Have you said this chomping at the bit?
77
Yeah, I have before.
78
I think of a horse, right?
79
Because a horse wears a bit and you imagine a horse in the gate before the horse race or something, right?
80
Exactly.
81
But it's actually a mistake.
82
It should be champing at the bit.
83
Are you serious?
84
I didn't know that.
85
But most was me neither.
86
I know I said it incorrectly for a long time.
87
And then finally someone was like, it's actually champing.
88
It's like, what?
89
I had to Google.
90
Whoa, okay.
91
You're blowing my mind today.
92
So chomping exists in English.
93
We kind of talk about people chomping their food, like biting.
94
So it makes sense that we make this mistake.
95
The word, the verb for a horse fighting their bit
96
or.. you know is actually champing so a horse is champing at its bit
97
if it doesn't want that piece in its mouth
98
and we just either hear it incorrectly or don't realize
99
that champing is a separate word and
100
so we often you're going to hear guys chomping at the bit for sure
101
that is fascinating you're breaking my brain you're blowing my mind
102
today aubrey this is a mistake that's gone viral in among
103
the native speaker community i mean we all say chomping at the bit i yeah absolutely
104
so the good news is you can say chomping at the
105
bit most people aren't going to know that's what you're going
106
to hear you can say it don't stress about it there could be someone
107
that says to you like they said to me i think
108
it's actually champing it might be more it might be used correctly outside of the u .s more
109
but within the u .s you're going to hear chomping at the bit it's a very common error
110
and that brings up an interesting conversation which is one we would have at the upper intermediate level.
111
At what point do you choose to actually say it incorrectly?
112
Because it's what everyone is saying.
113
I would argue for this one, I might say it incorrect, continue to say it incorrectly because it's what everyone recognizes and says.
114
It almost would be, you'd be more likely to be corrected if you say like, you know, be patient, you're champing at the bit.
115
There's a good chance someone would be like, I think it's chomping at the bit.
116
And then it might actually break the connection if you're like, let's Google.
117
I'm Right.
118
Yeah.
119
I think that that is the litmus test right there.
120
You always think what is going to maintain the connection?
121
If I go with the correct version or the incorrect version, what is going to be better?
122
Maybe that would open an interesting conversation and debate, which could be connection in that moment
123
or it could be the opposite where you just want to say it wrong
124
because that's what everyone is saying and that's not the point of that conversation.
125
Exactly.
126
So it depends on who you're talking to, what type of conversations you have.
127
So, but either way, this is interesting to know.
128
You won't learn this in any textbook.
129
I love it.
130
All right.
131
So, and this is the kind of thing that we clear up at this level, at the B2 level to, to advance into the higher levels and to advanced English.
132
So this next one, I love, I identify with this completely.
133
What is it, Aubrey?
134
Okay.
135
For all intensive purposes, intensive being one word.
136
Have you ever said this
137
or heard this lindsay i i think i might have actually
138
thought until today um well actually well now i'm not sure
139
which one it is so intense
140
and purposes intense that's the correct one okay okay for all intense
141
and purposes which
142
if you think about the words this makes more sense right
143
for every intent for every purpose yes it doesn't make sense
144
to have the word intensive there for all intensive purposes
145
but this is an egg corn
146
because people hear it incorrectly they don't see it written we say it quickly we run our words together
147
and it sounds like for all intensive purposes they sound the same it completely sounds the same all intents
148
and purposes um let's give some sample sentences for this one
149
aubrey how about this i dropped my phone in the pool
150
so for all intents and purposes it's useless exactly
151
so the meaning means essentially right something has the same outcome or result as something else.
152
So you might say, for all intents and purposes, this contract does what we need it to do.
153
But of course, I'm emphasizing the words so you can tell the difference on the podcast.
154
We're actually going to say, for all intents and purposes, this contract does, and it sounds the same as the egg corn, as the mistake.
155
Oh, I could see in one of our fluency parties or our conversation clubs, getting into a conversation like this with our students live, right?
156
Over, you know, what do you do do you move to
157
which one would be connection which the wrong one
158
or the you know the correct one what do we do in these moments
159
and I get questions like this a lot in open conversation club
160
because our students are at this higher level they're hearing these mistakes they're not sure
161
which to use really helps to have a native speaker teacher
162
and also other language learners to bounce these ideas of have these really interesting conversations about
163
which should we use I love it I love it
164
so let's talk a little bit more because I am
165
so excited about the launch of our brand shiny new B2 Fluency course, Aubrey.
166
So let's talk a little bit about our method, the connection method, which is baked into this course and every course.
167
How is it different from all of the other courses out there?
168
What's the key differentiator here?
169
Well, we start with real English, how native speakers really speak.
170
Most programs, a lot of courses manufacture the English, just like textbooks, right?
171
Scripted conversations with the vocabulary they want to teach.
172
And it's pretty unnatural.
173
But with real native conversations, you're learning real English.
174
Yeah.
175
Because if we inherently tell the person we're interviewing, okay, we're going to interview you, but please use these three words.
176
It's not going to be real.
177
It's going to be manufactured.
178
So we do the opposite.
179
Aubrey, you interviewed a couple of very interesting people for this course.
180
Who did you interview in this course?
181
Yes, I interviewed my friend Orla from Ireland.
182
So she has this amazing Irish accent, but she's lived in the States for a long time.
183
She's a very successful leader at Microsoft.
184
And there were so many interesting conversations that we were able to pull these awesome lessons from.
185
You learn so much vocabulary and also strategies that you couldn't learn from a scripted conversation.
186
Yeah.
187
So that is the key difference, right, of the connection method at All Learns English is we start with the real English.
188
It's unscripted.
189
It's spontaneous.
190
It is not manufactured.
191
How long does it take for a student to actually complete this course?
192
What is the time commitment?
193
What are we talking about here to get through the B2 course?
194
Yeah, we recommend 20 minutes a day, three to five days for week and
195
that would take you about 90 days right yeah this will help you build
196
that habit you have a clear study plan where your time is organized
197
and you are improving every single week yeah exactly i mean
198
the thing is you don't have to complete a course like
199
this in 90 days right you have lifetime access for our courses now
200
so you could you could complete it in two years
201
but the key is we do something every day
202
or at least five days a week three to five days
203
a week to build the consistency the momentum right it's momentum building exactly
204
and this is new and exciting
205
if you're not yet in one of our courses you might not realize this
206
that we have added tons of speaking practice yes
207
if you are in any of our courses you are part
208
of our community we have a weekly open conversation clubs
209
that are so fun they're over zoom we get to chat with you
210
and get to know you you get to meet other members
211
of our community other speaking partners as well as monthly fluency parties.
212
Lindsay and I are both there.
213
They're so fun.
214
You guys need to get to this fun speaking practice.
215
Yeah.
216
The cool thing about the fluency party is
217
that you're always going to get it to meet at least two members of our podcasting team.
218
We have a team of four podcasters here and you'll get to meet two out of four of the team members, which is incredible in itself.
219
Yes.
220
It's so fun.
221
Yeah.
222
What is the topic?
223
So this month you and Jessica are actually hosting it
224
and what is the topic this month of our fluency party
225
yes we always have a really interesting discussion sort of diving deep about one topic
226
and we'll share a little bit of vocabulary to talk about
227
that and we're getting into health care this month so
228
if you have ever wanted to talk about health care in
229
your country what it's like around the world find out from other people how it's different
230
because people in open conversation clubs are from countries all over the world.
231
And then we go deep.
232
It's not just like, what's healthcare like?
233
What should it be like?
234
What should be changed and why?
235
I had a really interesting conversation with a student about socialized medicine.
236
And it's going to be interesting to dive into pluses and minuses of something like that.
237
Oh, that is going to be such a rich conversation topic this month.
238
And it kind of stems off of the conversation I had in our B2 fluency course, one of the lessons with my friend denise who used to
239
work as a doula right yeah aubry what's a doula by
240
the way that's someone who assists in childbirth a lot like a midwife
241
and yeah that's really interesting because we don't usually get an inside peek into
242
that type of profession so i'm excited for you guys to hear
243
that interview yeah we talk about is it actually
244
that safe to have a baby in the us right what are some of the challenges
245
and some of the data is surprising, right?
246
So guys, that is one of the lessons along with the interview Aubrey did with Orla in the B2 Fluency Course.
247
So this content is waiting for you.
248
It is being unveiled this week.
249
It's ready for you to build fluency with this content.
250
So Aubrey, I think our listeners need to know about the deal at this point.
251
Yes, you guys need to join now
252
because we are offering special early bird access
253
so not only do you save up to a hundred dollars
254
and you will also get a special bonus five cool phrases in english
255
which is an amazing course that jessica created i love it but also
256
when you join before june 1st you get another course how to be polite in english i mean exactly exactly
257
so we're offering the early bird bonus to are amazing podcast listeners, because we know you guys are, you're ready for this.
258
This is exactly for you at this level.
259
So when you join before the early bird date of June 1st, you get the how to be polite in English.
260
But after June 1st, that extra bonus does go away.
261
Now, Aubrey, where should our listeners go to get it?
262
Yes, go to allearsenglish .com slash B2, the letter B and the number two
263
and you got to go now guys for
264
that special early bird discount yeah don't miss it aubrey do
265
we have time to run through the role play i think
266
we have a few minutes why don't we do a quick role play you
267
and i are at a wedding in this role play i'll start us out all right
268
so we're coming back to the egg corns right
269
that we talked about at the beginning of the episode so let's see how come up in a conversation.
270
Yes.
271
I know the mother of the bride has been champing at the bit for this day to come.
272
I'm not surprised.
273
So much planning goes into a wedding.
274
So when it's all said and done, I'm sure everyone is a bit relieved.
275
Yeah.
276
Her dad told me he was really hands -off with preparations.
277
So for all intents and purposes, this is her mom's show.
278
I feel like that's often how, how weddings can go, right?
279
Yeah, absolutely.
280
And there's a little bonus in here another egg corn often people will say
281
or write all set and done but it should be all said
282
and done so this is an extra fun one interesting so
283
that one i i'm pretty clear on i feel like i don't make
284
that mistake but fascinating that we do you know these mistakes can go viral
285
and sometimes again it's not a problem right uh
286
and that's what we explore at this high intermediate level so
287
so first you said i know the mother of the bride
288
has been champing at the bit for this day to come She's been what?
289
She's been...
290
Impatient, like so excited, ready, waiting.
291
And I like what you said, Lindsay.
292
I probably would be more likely to say chomping at the bit
293
if I were in the US because otherwise the next thing you said might've been like, wait, what do you mean chomping at the bit?
294
I thought it's chomping at the bit.
295
Am I wrong?
296
I know.
297
It's so funny.
298
And then I said, I'm not surprised.
299
So much planning goes into a wedding.
300
So when it's all said and done, everyone is relieved.
301
So when we say all said and done, it means when when everything's been said yeah right when
302
when we consider all the details it's all over or or
303
or what however you want to frame it
304
and then you used our fun one intense
305
and purposes what did you say aubrey yeah for all intents
306
and purposes this is her mom's show it means like essentially like he the dad didn't do much
307
so you know the mom was able to pick all of the details yeah wow okay
308
so this is it i mean what's our takeaway for today's
309
episode aubrey a couple of opportunities here for our listeners absolutely
310
right using idioms idiomatic language really pushes you from intermediate to advanced
311
but it can make you stagnant if you're stressed about using them incorrectly
312
if you're not getting the speaking practice you need to practice using these in conversations
313
so we want you to feel confident using them it makes language
314
so much more fun yeah
315
and overall we don't want you to get stuck at this
316
intermediate level we want to move you through upper intermediate and eventually into advanced.
317
And the way to do that is not to jump around the internet and find entertaining resources.
318
That is not for learning.
319
That is not for outcomes.
320
The way to get an outcome that you want is a study plan.
321
And we have it for you.
322
Aubrey, we haven't launched a course in quite a while.
323
The last time we launched a course was our business English course a few years ago.
324
It's true.
325
It's been a little while.
326
So this is exciting for us we can't wait to share
327
it with you we put a lot of work into it so guys go to allearsenglish .com
328
b2 to check it out yeah be the first one ever to get into b2
329
that is my challenge i think it's going to be a podcast listener
330
and be the one guys to be the very first student in b2 it is open now
331
so go to allearsenglish .com b2 that is the letter b
332
and the number two we'll see you there awesome See you there.
333
We'll see you at Open Conversation Club and Influency Parties.
334

335

337

338
You too.
339
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.
