Today we are going to talk about transportation.
10
How do you get to work or school?
11
We will talk about many ways to travel.
12
Let's get started.
13
So Emma, how are you today?
14
I'm very well, thank you, Jack. And you?
15
I'm a little tired, but I'm happy to be here.
16
Did you have a good weekend?
17
Yes, I did.
18
It was very relaxing.
19
I visited my family.
20
Oh, that's nice.
21
What did you do with your family?
22
On Saturday, we had a big dinner.
23
On Sunday, we went for a walk in the park.
24
It was very peaceful.
25
A walk in the park sounds perfect.
26
My weekend was busy.
27
I cleaned my apartment.
28
Ah, cleaning.
29
Cleaning is important, but it is not very fun.
30
No, it is not fun.
31
But now my apartment is very clean.
32
That's good.
33
So, Jack, how did you come to the studio today?
34
I came by bus.
35
I took the number 25 bus.
36
Oh, the bus.
37
Was it busy this morning?
38
Yes, it was very busy.
39
Many people were going to work.
40
I had to stand for the first ten minutes.
41
Oh no. Standing on a moving bus is not easy.
42
No, it isn't.
43
But then, one person left, and I got a seat.
44
It was much better.
45
That's good.
46
I came by car today.
47
Was the traffic bad?
48
Not too bad.
49
It was a little slow near the city center.
50
There were many cars.
51
Yes, I always see many cars in the city center.
52
Do you usually drive to work?
53
No, not usually.
54
I normally take the train.
55
Why do you take the train?
56
It's easier.
57
I can read a book on the train.
58
Driving can be stressful because of traffic.
59
That's true.
60
I like the bus for the same reason.
61
I can listen to music or look out the window.
62
Exactly.
63
So, you take the bus every day?
64
Almost every day.
65
Sometimes, if the weather is nice, I ride my bicycle.
66
You ride a bicycle?
67
That's great exercise.
68
It is.
69
It's also good for the environment.
70
But when it rains, I don't ride my bicycle. Of course.
71
No one likes a wet bicycle.
72
True.
73
How do you go to your family's house?
74
It's far, right?
75
Yes, it is far.
76
I go by train.
77
It takes about two hours.
78
Two hours?
79
That is a long time.
80
It is, but I like it.
81
I look out the window and see the countryside.
82
It's beautiful.
83
Sometimes I sleep a little, too.
84
That does sound nice.
85
I need to take a train trip soon.
86
I like long trips by train.
87
You should.
88
Where would you like to go?
89
Maybe to the beach.
90
I love the beach.
91
How do you go to the beach?
92
I usually go by car with my friends.
93
It's more fun with friends.
94
We talk and listen to music.
95
Yes.
96
Traveling with friends is always fun.
97
Do you sing songs in the car?
98
Always.
99
We sing very badly, but it's fun.
100
The trip is about three hours.
101
Three hours is a long time to sing.
102
Yes.
103
Our voices are very tired after the trip.
104
I believe you.
105
What about airplanes?
106
Do you like to fly?
107
Uh, airplanes.
108
I have mixed feelings about flying.
109
It means I have both good thoughts and bad thoughts.
110
Can you explain?
111
Sure.
112
Airplanes are fast.
113
That is good.
114
But airports are big and busy.
115
That is a little bad.
116
I understand.
117
I like flying.
118
I love going to new countries.
119
Yes, that is the best part.
120
Last year, I flew to Spain.
121
Wonderful.
122
How was it?
123
It was amazing.
124
The food was very good.
125
The people were friendly.
126
How did you get around the cities in Spain?
127
I walked a lot.
128
Walking is the best way to see a new city.
129
I also used the subway.
130
The subway?
131
Was it easy to use?
132
Yes, it was very easy.
133
The maps were clear.
134
I also took a taxi once from the airport to my hotel.
135
Was the taxi expensive?
136
A little expensive, but it was late and I was very tired.
137
It was easy.
138
That is a good reason to take a taxi.
139
Sometimes easy is best.
140
Exactly.
141
What about you, Jack?
142
What is your favorite way to travel?
143
Hmm, that's a difficult question.
144
I think I like trains the most.
145
Why trains?
146
You can move around.
147
You have space.
148
You can see a lot.
149
It is comfortable.
150
More comfortable than a bus, I think.
151
That is true.
152
Buses can be small.
153
The seats are not always comfortable.
154
And what is your least favorite way to travel?
155
Easy.
156
A crowded bus.
157
I do not like crowded buses or crowded subways. Who does?
158
My least favorite is a motorcycle.
159
You don't like motorcycles?
160
No, they're too dangerous for me.
161
I prefer four wheels.
162
Four wheels feel safe.
163
I understand.
164
Safety first.
165
Have you ever been on a boat?
166
A boat?
167
Yes, a ferry.
168
I took a ferry to an island last summer.
169
Was it fun?
170
Yes, it was very fun.
171
The water was blue and the sun was warm.
172
It was a beautiful trip.
173
Hmm.
174
I am a little jealous.
175
I watch Take a Boat Trip.
176
I never travel by boat.
177
You should.
178
It is very relaxing.
179
But sometimes the water is not calm.
180
What does not calm mean?
181
It means the boat moves up and down a lot.
182
Some people do not like that.
183
They feel sick.
184
Oh, I understand.
185
That does not sound fun.
186
No, it does not.
187
But on a good day, it is perfect.
188
Maybe I'll try a short boat trip first.
189
Good idea.
190
Let's think.
191
We talked about cars, buses,
192
trains, bicycles, airplanes, taxis, subways, and boats.
193
That is a lot of transportation.
194
Did we forget any?
195
Hmm.
196
What about a scooter or an electric bike?
197
Oh, yes.
198
I see many people on electric scooters now.
199
They are very popular in the city.
200
Do you use an electric scooter?
201
No. I think they are a little dangerous in traffic, but they are very fast for short trips.
202
I agree.
203
I prefer to walk for short trips.
204
Me too.
205
Walking is healthy and free.
206
Free is always good.
207
What do you do when your transportation is late?
208
When the bus is late, I feel stressed.
209
I look at my watch many times.
210
I do the same thing.
211
When my train is late, I call my friend and say, sorry, my train is late.
212
Yes, exactly.
213
Everyone understands.
214
It happens to everyone.
215
It does.
216
Do you ever use a car sharing app?
217
A car sharing app?
218
Like you use an app to find a car?
219
Yes.
220
You use your phone to find a car near you.
221
You can use the car for a short time.
222
No, I never use it.
223
Is it easy?
224
Yes, it is very easy.
225
I use it sometimes when I need to go to the supermarket for big shopping.
226
Oh, that is a good idea.
227
For big shopping, a car is very useful.
228
Yes, you can carry many bags.
229
You cannot carry many bags on a bus.
230
No, you cannot.
231
On a bus, you can carry one or two bags, maximum.
232
Maximum, yes.
233
For our viewers, let's talk about the words we use.
234
Okay, we say, I come by car, or I take the bus.
235
Right.
236
We say by for many types of transportation, like by car, by train, by plane.
237
But we say, I take the bus or I take a taxi.
238
We don't say, I buy bus.
239
Correct.
240
That is a very common mistake.
241
We say, I go by bus or I take the bus.
242
And for walking, we say, I go on foot.
243
Yes, I come on foot is a little formal, but it's good to know.
244
English is funny sometimes.
245
Sometimes.
246
Often.
247
Okay, often.
248
But it's fun.
249
Yes, it is fun.
250
Let's practice some questions.
251
How do I ask you about your trip?
252
You can ask, how did you get here?
253
Or how do you get to work?
254
Good.
255
And I can answer, I take the bus or I come by car.
256
Perfect.
257
You can also say, I drive.
258
For example, I drive to work.
259
Yes.
260
I drive means you use your car.
261
What about the cost?
262
How do we talk about that?
263
You can say, the bus is cheap or the taxi is expensive.
264
Taking a plane is expensive, but it is fast.
265
The train is not cheap, but it is comfortable.
266
So, viewers, you have many words to use.
267
Now, let's talk about a problem.
268
What do you do if you lose something on the bus?
269
Oh, that is a bad situation.
270
I lost my umbrella on the bus one time.
271
What did you do?
272
I called the bus company.
273
I said, hello?
274
I lost my umbrella on the number 25 bus.
275
And did you get it back?
276
No, I didn't.
277
It was a cheap umbrella.
278
Oh, that's too bad.
279
I lost my scarf on the train one time.
280
Did you get it back?
281
No, I didn't.
282
It was my favorite scarf, too.
283
Oh, no. So we both lost something.
284
Yes.
285
Be careful with your things on public transportation.
286
Good advice.
287
Always remember your bag, your phone, your umbrella.
288
Exactly.
289
Okay, let's think about the future.
290
What is your dream transportation?
291
My dream transportation?
292
A private jet.
293
A private jet?
294
That is very expensive.
295
I know it's a dream, but in reality, I want a nice, comfortable bicycle.
296
That is a more realistic dream.
297
A good bicycle is nice.
298
What is your dream transportation?
299
I think a fast train that can take me to any city in one hour.
300
Oh, that would be perfect.
301
No traffic, no problems.
302
Yes, just fast and comfortable.
303
Maybe one day.
304
Maybe one day.
305
So, we talked a long time about transportation.
306
We have cars, buses, trains, planes, boats, bicycles, scooters, taxis,
307
subways, and walking on foot.
308
And we learned about commute and rush hour.
309
Yes.
310
Remember, your commute is your trip to work or school.
311
And rush hour is the very busy time in the morning and evening.
312
If you can, avoid rush hour.
313
Yes, but sometimes you cannot avoid it.
314
Then you need a good book or good music.
315
Exactly.
316
Patience is very important for transportation.
317
It is.
318
Okay, I think we practiced a lot.
319
We did.
320
I hope our viewers learned many new words and phrases.
321
I'm sure they did.
322
Now, let's review some important vocabulary about transportation.
323
Okay, good idea.
324
Let's talk about some key words.
325
It's like a small English lesson inside our conversation.
326
Exactly.
327
Our first word is commute.
328
Commute.
329
This means the regular trip you take every day to work or school.
330
For example, my commute is 30 minutes long.
331
I can also say, my commute is one hour by bus.
332
Right.
333
Viewers, you can tell us about your commute in the comments.
334
Is it long?
335
Is it short?
336
Next word is rush hour.
337
Rush hour.
338
This is the busy time, in the morning and evening, when many people are traveling to work or home.
339
The roads are full of cars.
340
The buses and trains are very crowded.
341
It's called rush hour because everyone is in a rush.
342
They are in a hurry.
343
I don't like rush hour.
344
The buses are very full, and sometimes I can't find a seat.
345
No one likes rush hour.
346
It's better to travel before or after rush hour if you can.
347
Next word is on foot.
348
On foot is a simple way to say walking.
349
For example, I go to the coffee shop on foot.
350
Yes, my house is near, so I don't need a car or bus.
351
Walking is healthy and free.
352
Let's talk about public transportation.
353
Public transportation means transportation that everyone can use.
354
Like buses, trains, and subways.
355
Using public transportation is good for the environment and can be cheaper than a car.
356
You don't need to buy petrol.
357
Petrol is the British English word for fuel for cars.
358
In American English, they say gas.
359
Yes.
360
So, I put petrol in my car or I put gas in my car.
361
Both are correct.
362
Now, let's talk about a word for the money you pay.
363
Fare.
364
Fare is the money you pay for a trip on public transportation.
365
For example, the bus fare is $2.
366
Or the train fare to London is expensive.
367
You can pay your fare when you get on the bus.
368
Another important word is route.
369
Route is the way or path that a bus or train takes.
370
For example, the number 25 bus has a route through the city centre.
371
You need to know your bus route so you don't get lost.
372
Yes, always check the route.
373
What about the word delay?
374
Delay is a very common word.
375
Unfortunately, it means when something is late.
376
My train has a delay.
377
That means my train is late.
378
Sorry I am late.
379
There was a bus delay.
380
This is a very useful sentence to know.
381
It happens to everyone.
382
So remember delay.
383
And one more word for the train.
384
Platform.
385
Platform is the area in a train station where you wait for the train.
386
You see the number of the platform.
387
For example, your train is on platform 4 so you go to platform 4 and wait there.
388
It's important to find the correct platform.
389
Okay, we have many words now.
390
Let's say them again.
391
Commute.
392
Rush hour. On foot.
393
Public transportation, fare, route, delay, platform.
394
Wow!
395
That's eight new words and phrases!
396
Good job, everyone!
397
Don't worry if it's a lot.
398
Just try to remember two or three new words today.
399
Yes.
400
Little by little, your English gets better every day.
401
Let's use one in a sentence together.
402
How is your commute?
403
My commute is usually fine, but sometimes there is a delay.
404
Perfect.
405
And viewers, you can try to make a sentence with one of these words in the comments.
406
We would love to read them.
407
Now let's move to our wrap-up.
408
Well, Emma, we talked for a long time today.
409
We did.
410
It was a very good conversation.
411
We talked about so many ways to get around.
412
We practiced how to say how you get to work, school, or on a trip.
413
We used many words and phrases.
414
Let's remember them together.
415
We talked about going by car.
416
Yes, I come by car, or I drive.
417
And we talked about public transportation, like buses and trains.
418
I take the bus.
419
I take the train.
420
We also discussed going on foot, which means walking, a very healthy way to travel.
421
We also mentioned bicycles.
422
Oh, yes!
423
I ride my bicycle, especially when the weather is good.
424
And for longer trips, we talked about going by plane or by boat.
425
I flew to Spain.
426
I took a ferry to the island.
427
Perfect!
428
And we learned some very important vocabulary words.
429
That's right.
430
We learned commute.
431
Everyone has a commute.
432
Your commute is your daily trip.
433
We also learned rush hour.
434
That is the busy time, with lots of traffic and people.
435
Not a fun time.
436
No, it's not.
437
We also learned fare, which is the money you pay for the bus or the train.
438
And delay, for when your train or bus is late.
439
A very useful word.
440
And finally, platform, for the train station.
441
So many new words.
442
But remember, you don't need to learn them all today.
443
No. Just practice one or two.
444
Maybe you can try to use one new word this week.
445
That's an excellent idea.
446
Listen for these words when you are in the city or when you watch another English video.
447
Now it's time for our favorite part, the question of the day.
448
Yes, we love to hear from you.
449
It helps you practice your English.
450
Today's question is about what we practiced.
451
Are you ready?
452
I'm ready.
453
Today's question is, what is your favourite way to travel?
454
Do you go by bus, by car, on foot, or by bicycle?
455
Tell us about your daily commute.
456
That's a great question.
457
You can give a simple answer.
458
You can write, my favourite way is by bus, or I go to work on foot.
459
Or you can try a longer sentence.
460
You can write, My commute is short.
461
I go to school by bicycle.
462
We will read every comment.
463
We are always so happy to read your answers.
464
You are doing a great job.
465
Learning a new language is not easy, but you are here and practicing.

Practice with a friend.
478
Well, I think that is all for today.
479
you again, everyone.
480

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.
