Hello everyone, and welcome to our English vocab listening channel.
2
Today, we have a simple and relaxing story for you.
3
In this video, you will listen to an easy conversation that happens inside a kitchen.
4
Two friends are cooking together and talking about many useful kitchen items.
5
Please listen carefully and enjoy the story.
6
Don't worry if your English is not perfect.
7
I will speak slowly and clearly so it is easy to understand.
8
Just relax and follow the conversation.
9
Before the story begins, I want to ask you a small question.
10
Please listen closely during the conversation to find the answer.
11
This little challenge will help you improve your listening skills.
12
Here is the question for today.
13
Which kitchen tool is inside the drawer?
14
The answer appears somewhere in the conversation.
15
If you discover the answer, please write it in the comments.
16
Try writing your answer in English.
17
Practicing like this can help you improve faster.
18
All right, are you ready?
19
Let's begin the story.
20
Wow, Anna, your kitchen looks wonderful.
21
Thank you, David.
22
Welcome.
23
Please come in.
24
This kitchen is really big.
25
I'm glad you like it.
26
I love the space here.
27
I spend a lot of time in this kitchen.
28
Really?
29
Yes, I cook here almost every day.
30
That's impressive.
31
I rarely cook at home.
32
That's okay.
33
Today, you can learn a little.
34
I would like that.
35
But first, let me show you my kitchen.
36
Yes, please.
37
I want to see everything.
38
Great.
39
Follow me.
40
This table here is where I eat my meals.
41
It's a very nice table.
42
Thank you.
43
I actually bought it last month.
44
It still looks brand new.
45
It's large enough for four people.
46
That's a good size.
47
My apartment only has a tiny table.
48
Small tables work fine, too.
49
Now, come over here.
50
This is the sink.
51
Oh, it's very shiny.
52
I wash dishes, vegetables, and cups here.
53
It looks extremely clean.
54
I try to clean it every day.
55
A clean sink makes the kitchen feel better.
56
I agree with that.
57
My sink at home is not always this clean.
58
That's okay.
59
Next to the sink is the stove.
60
The stove looks easy to use.
61
Is it electric?
62
No, it's a gas stove.
63
I like gas because I can see the flame.
64
That makes sense.
65
I use this stove every evening to cook dinner.
66
And what about that big white box over there?
67
That's the refrigerator.
68
I keep my food inside so it stays cold and fresh.
69
May I open it?
70
Of course.
71
Go ahead.
72
Wow.
73
There is so much food in here.
74
I see eggs, milk, and vegetables.
75
I went grocery shopping yesterday.
76
I bought many ingredients for cooking today.
77
That explains it.
78
You have a nice table, a clean sink, a good stove, and a big refrigerator.
79
This kitchen is fantastic.
80
Thank you, David.
81
Honestly, this is my favorite room in the house.
82
I can understand why.
83
So, are you ready to start cooking?
84
Yes, I'm ready.
85
Perfect.
86
Let's begin.
87
All right, David.
88
The first thing we need is a knife.
89
A knife?
90
Do you have one here?
91
Yes, of course.
92
The knife is inside this drawer.
93
Let me open it.
94
Oh, I see it.
95
Here you go.
96
Thank you.
97
Wow, this knife feels very sharp.
98
Yes, it is quite sharp, so please be careful.
99
Don't worry.
100
I will handle it slowly.
101
A sharp knife is very useful in cooking, but it can also be dangerous if you are not careful.
102
I understand.
103
I will pay attention.
104
tension.
105
Good.
106
Now, we also need a cutting board.
107
Do you have one?
108
Yes, I keep it right here on the counter.
109
This is my cutting board.
110
Oh, it's made of wood.
111
Yes, it's a wooden cutting board.
112
I use it almost every day.
113
It looks big and strong.
114
A good cutting board is very important.
115
It gives you a safe surface for cutting food.
116
That makes sense.
117
A knife and a cutting board are a perfect pair.
118
Exactly.
119
Those are probably the most important tools in a kitchen.
120
I agree with you.
121
Do we need anything else?
122
Yes, we need a bowl.
123
A bowl for the vegetables?
124
That's right.
125
Let me grab one from the shelf.
126
Here is a large bowl.
127
Nice.
128
It's big enough for many vegetables.
129
That's the idea.
130
After we cut the vegetables, we will place them in this bowl.
131
Good plan.
132
Oh, do we need a spoon, too?
133
Yes, we do.
134
A big spoon will help us mix everything.
135
Here is one.
136
That's a big spoon, indeed.
137
I use this spoon whenever I cook.
138
It must be very useful.
139
It really is.
140
I probably use it almost every day.
141
What about forks?
142
Do we need forks right now?
143
Hmm, not for cooking, but we will need forks when we eat.
144
Oh right.
145
Eating requires forks.
146
Exactly.
147
I will put two forks on the table later.
148
One for you and one for me.
149
Yes.
150
So let's see what we have.
151
We have a knife, a cutting board, a bowl, and a spoon.
152
forks for later.
153
That's correct.
154
Sounds like we're ready to begin.
155
Yes, we are ready.
156
Let's prepare the vegetables.
157
What vegetables do we have today?
158
We have three different vegetables.
159
The first one is a carrot.
160
Look at this long orange vegetable.
161
Yes, I see it.
162
The carrot is bright orange.
163
Carrots are always orange.
164
Please cut the carrot into small pieces.
165
Small pieces.
166
pieces cook faster right exactly okay let me place the carrot on the cutting board I will
167
cut it like this yes that looks good you are doing very well thank you I am
168
being very careful with the knife that's the right attitude safety first all right the carrot is finished great work now we need the second vegetable.
169
Here is an onion.
170
Oh, no.
171
Onions make me cry.
172
That happens to everyone.
173
Onions always make people tear up.
174
I really don't enjoy cutting onions.
175
But the onion adds great flavor.
176
We need it for our dish.
177
Okay, I will try.
178
I will cut it slowly.
179
Take your time.
180
There is no rush.
181
All right.
182
The onion is finished, but my eyes are watering.
183
I'm sorry about that, but you did an excellent job.
184
Thank you.
185
One last vegetable remains.
186
Here is a tomato.
187
I love tomatoes.
188
They're my favorite.
189
Some people say tomatoes are actually fruits.
190
Really?
191
That's interesting.
192
But to me, they taste like vegetables.
193
I think the same.
194
Anyway, please cut the tomato.
195
This time, make bigger pieces.
196
Bigger pieces?
197
Yes.
198
The carrot and onion were small pieces, but the tomato should be larger.
199
Understood.
200
Tomatoes become soft quickly.
201
Exactly.
202
All right.
203
I've finished cutting the tomato.
204
Wonderful.
205
Now place everything into the bowl.
206
OK.
207
The carrot, onion, and tomato are all in the bowl now.
208
Look at the colors.
209
Orange, white, and red.
210
It looks beautiful.
211
Now we are ready for the next step.
212
Let's cook the vegetables.
213
So, how do we cook these vegetables?
214
We will cook them on the stove.
215
Great!
216
Can you show me how to turn it on?
217
Of course.
218
You just turn this knob to the right, like this.
219
Oh, I see the flame.
220
Yes, the stove is on now.
221
I can already feel the heat.
222
Gas stoves heat up very quickly.
223
That's good for cooking.
224
Now we need a pan.
225
A pan?
226
Can you remind me what a pan looks like?
227
Sure.
228
This is a pan.
229
See how it is round and flat?
230
Oh, yes, I remember.
231
We use a pan to cook many foods.
232
For example, eggs, vegetables, or meat.
233
I often see people cooking eggs in a pan.
234
Exactly.
235
I cook eggs in this pan almost every morning.
236
That's very convenient.
237
A pan is one of the most useful tools in a kitchen.
238
I believe it.
239
And what about that big, deep one over there?
240
That one is a pot.
241
A pot?
242
Yes.
243
A pot is deeper than a pan.
244
We usually use a pot for soup, pasta, or boiling water.
245
Oh, I understand.
246
A pan is shallow and a pot is deep.
247
Exactly right.
248
You're learning fast.
249
I'm trying.
250
Today, we only need the pan.
251
The pot can stay on the shelf.
252
Got it.
253
I will place the pan on the stove.
254
Go ahead, but be careful.
255
Okay, the pan is on the stove now.
256
Is it hot yet?
257
Let me check.
258
Almost.
259
The heat from the stove will warm the pan.
260
I can feel the warmth from here.
261
Yes, it will be ready soon.
262
But remember, do not touch the pan with your hands.
263
Don't worry, I won't.
264
The heat looks strong.
265
Good.
266
Now we can add the vegetables.
267
I will pour them into the pan.
268
Ready?
269
Yes, go ahead.
270
Oh, listen to that sound.
271
That sound means the pan is hot enough.
272
It smells nice already.
273
Cooking always smells wonderful.
274
Now we will cook the vegetables slowly.
275
For how long?
276
About 10 minutes.
277
10 minutes.
278
Okay.
279
Please stir them sometimes.
280
Use the big spoon.
281
Like this?
282
Yes.
283
That's perfect.
284
This is actually fun.
285
Cooking together is always fun.
286
I like hearing the vegetables sizzle.
287
Me too.
288
The sound and smell make cooking special.
289
The vegetables are getting softer now.
290
That means they are cooking well.
291
I think they are almost ready.
292
Yes, they look perfect.
293
Let's turn off the stove.
294
Done.
295
That was enjoyable.
296
It was.
297
But now look around.
298
The kitchen is a bit messy.
299
Cooking often makes a mess.
300
That's normal.
301
Then we should clean up.
302
Yes, let's clean up the kitchen together.
303
I can wash the dishes.
304
Good idea.
305
Please wash them in the sink.
306
How do I start the water?
307
Just turn that handle.
308
Okay.
309
Oh, the water is very cold.
310
That is the cold side.
311
Turn the other handle for hot water.
312
Ah, that's better.
313
Now the water is warm.
314
Great.
315
I will wash this plate first.
316
Thank you.
317
Use dish soap and plenty of water.
318
This plate has a lot of food on it.
319
It's a little hard to clean.
320
Try using more soap.
321
That should help.
322
Okay.
323
Look, it's clean now.
324
Excellent work.
325
You're good at washing dishes.
326
I actually enjoy it.
327
Really?
328
Most people don't like washing dishes.
329
I like seeing things become clean.
330
That's a great attitude.
331
What should I wash next?
332
Please wash those cups.
333
We used them for tea earlier.
334
Right.
335
Cups are easier to clean than plates.
336
Yes, they usually have less food on them.
337
Done.
338
Both cups are clean.
339
They look perfect.
340
Thank you, David.
341
No problem.
342
While you wash the dishes, I clean the table and stove.
343
Everything looks tidy again.
344
A clean kitchen feels wonderful.
345
I agree.
346
Now let's eat.
347
Yes.
348
I'm hungry.
349
The food is already on the table.
350
Tasting food.
351
Wow, this is delicious.
352
Really?
353
I'm glad you like it.
354
It's very good.
355
Cooking together made it taste even better.
356
I think so, too.
357
We worked hard today.
358
Yes, we did.
359
I learned many things.
360
Like what?
361
For example, I practiced using the knife.
362
Before today, I wasn't confident with it.
363
But you did great.
364
You cut the vegetables perfectly.
365
The cutting board helped a lot.
366
It was strong and easy to use.
367
I'm happy you liked it.
368
And cooking with the pan was exciting.
369
Watching the vegetables cook was fun.
370
I agree.
371
Cooking has wonderful sounds and smells.
372
I also enjoyed cleaning.
373
You are the first person I know who says that.
374
Clean plates and cups make me feel good.
375
That's great for me.
376
You can come wash dishes anytime.
377
Deal.
378
But next time we should cook something new.
379
That sounds fun.
380
What do you want to cook next?
381
Maybe pasta?
382
Then we can use the pot.
383
That's a fantastic idea.
384
Pasta needs a big pot with boiling water.
385
And maybe I can try using another knife.
386
I have several knives.
387
Next time you can try a larger one.
388
Today was really fun, Anna.
389
Thank you for teaching me.
390
You're welcome.

Why practice speaking with this video?
Practicing your speaking skills by engaging with the "English Kitchen Vocabulary" video offers numerous benefits. This video presents a relaxed conversation between two friends, allowing you to immerse yourself in a natural speaking context. By listening to how the characters interact, you not only improve your listening comprehension but also get a feel for everyday English dialogue. This makes it an excellent choice for English speaking practice, as it mimics real-life situations you might encounter in your own kitchen.
The shadowing technique can be particularly effective here. Try repeating phrases after the speakers, which will enhance your fluency and pronunciation. As you follow along, you can also jot down new vocabulary or phrases, allowing for better retention. Remember, the goal is to be relaxed and to enjoy learning. Engaging with this video can not only increase your vocabulary but also boost your confidence in speaking.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
Throughout the conversation, several key grammatical structures and expressions are highlighted that are beneficial for learners:
- “This kitchen is really big.” - Simple present tense used for describing current qualities.
- “I cook here almost every day.” - The frequency adverb "almost" emphasizes regularity, a useful expression in daily conversations.
- “That’s okay.” - A common phrase for offering reassurance, showcasing a friendly tone.
- “Can I see everything?” - An example of polite inquiry that is useful in various contexts.
Incorporating these expressions into your speech can make conversations feel more natural and fluent. Practicing these structures through learn English with YouTube is straightforward and practical for daily interactions.
Common Pronunciation Traps
When watching the video, pay attention to some commonly mispronounced words and phrases. Words like "kitchen," "table," and "sink" can pose challenges due to their vowel sounds and syllable stress. For example, "kitchen" is often mispronounced by learners who may place stress incorrectly or fail to articulate the 't' sound clearly.
Additionally, the phrase “I rarely cook” might be pronounced too quickly, leading to muddled sounds. To overcome this, practice the shadow speak method by repeating after the speaker at a slower pace initially, gradually increasing your speed as you become more comfortable with the phrases. Engaging consistently with this kind of material can help refine your accent and improve overall pronunciation.
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.
