Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr English Channel,
2
where learning English is easy and fun.
3
I'm Emily.
4
Hey hey, and I am very,
5
very happy to be here with you today.
6
I am Paul.
7
It is so good to see you again, Emily.
8
How are you?
9
I am doing great, Paul,
10
but I am a little bit tired today.
11
I stayed up late reading a book.
12
Ah, I understand that feeling.
13
You need some energy.
14
You need a big cup of coffee.
15
Yes, exactly.
16
That is actually a perfect idea because today we are talking about exactly that,
17
how to order coffee in English.
18
Oh, I love this topic.
19
It is so useful.
20
I remember when I first tried to order coffee in a different country,
21
oh boy, I was so nervous.
22
We are going to make sure our listeners feel confident and happy when they walk into a cafe.

29
Sharing is caring.
30
Okay, Emily.
31
I am ready.
32
I can smell the coffee beans already.
33
Mmm.
34
Me too.
35
Hmm.
36
Wait, Paul.
37
Do you have a pen on your ear?
38
A pen?
39
Oh, yes, I do.
40
I was writing a note earlier and I forgot I put it there.
41
Wow, I'm a bit messy today.
42
That is funny.
43
OK, let's imagine we are walking into a very busy café in London or New York.
44
It is morning and there are many people.
45
OK, I can see it.
46
It's loud, people are talking,
47
the coffee machines are making a pshhh sound.
48
It feels a bit scary if you don't know what to say.
49
It can be.
50
But the first thing we do is look at the menu.
51
Usually it's a big board behind the counter.
52
Right.
53
You see words like espresso, latte, cappuccino, and americano.
54
Exactly.
55
Yesterday, I went to a new cafe near my house.
56
It was so small and cute.
57
I walked in, and the barista,
58
that's the person who makes the coffee,
59
looked at me and smiled.
60
That's nice.
61
What did they say?
62
They said, hi there, what can I get for you?
63
What can I get for you?
64
That is a very common question.
65
It just means, what do you want to buy?
66
Yes.
67
And I realized I was so distracted by the smell of the cake that I forgot what I wanted.
68
I just stood there for a second, like, uh, um...
69
I do that all the time,
70
especially when they have chocolate muffins on the counter.
71
Right.
72
But then I remembered our simple formula.
73
I said, hi, can I get a medium latte, please?
74
Can I get?
75
That is so simple and so polite.
76
Can I get a medium latte, please?
77
Exactly.
78
It's perfect for beginners.
79
You don't need a long sentence.
80
Sometimes I say, I would like a coffee, please.
81
Is that okay too, Emily?
82
Oh, yes.
83
I would like is also very good.
84
It is very polite.
85
I have a story about this.
86
Last week, I went to a cafe with my brother.
87
My brother doesn't drink coffee.
88
He only drinks tea.
89
Oh, really?
90
Yes.
91
So we went to the counter,
92
and the barista was very fast.
93
She said, next.
94
My brother got very nervous.
95
He looked at me and said,
96
Paul, how do I ask for tea?
97
What did you tell him?
98
I told him to just say the name of the tea.
99
So he said, hello, I'd like a green tea, please.
100
And the barista said, small, medium, or large.
101
That is the big question.
102
Sizes.
103
Yes.
104
My brother looked at the cups on the counter.
105
They usually have the cups there so you can see the size.
106
He pointed to the biggest one and said, large, please.
107
A large green tea.
108
That is a lot of tea.
109
It was huge.
110
It looked like a soup bowl.
111
He was drinking it for an hour.
112
Wow, but that is a good tip.
113
Look at the cups on the counter to choose your size.
114
So, Emily, what happens after you say,
115
can I get a latte?
116
Usually the barista asks more questions, right?
117
Yes, they might ask about the milk.
118
This is very important these days because many people don't drink cow's milk.
119
True.
120
I usually drink my coffee with oat milk.
121
I love the taste.
122
Me too.
123
Oat milk is great.
124
So the barista might say, any particular milk?
125
Or what kind of milk would you like?
126
And I can just say, oat milk please.
127
Or do you have almond milk?
128
Exactly.
129
You are asking a question.
130
Do you have?
131
It is very useful.
132
Do you have soy milk?
133
Do you have coconut milk?
134
Ah, do you have?
135
I will remember that.
136
Wait, Emily, I think I just dropped my phone.
137
Oh, no, it's okay.
138
It fell on my bag.
139
Oh, you scared me, Paul.
140
Be careful with your phone.
141
I am a bit clumsy today.
142
Maybe I really do need that coffee.
143
Well, back to the café.
144
So you chose your drink,
145
you chose your size, and you chose your milk.
146
What is next?
147
Sometimes they ask if you want sugar or syrup.
148
Yes, they might say, would you like any sugar with that?
149
Or any flavors?
150
I like vanilla, so I can say,
151
one pump of vanilla, please.
152
One pump.
153
That's a good word for the syrup.
154
Or you can just say,
155
can I have some sugar on the side?
156
On the side.
157
That means I want to put the sugar in myself, right?
158
Exactly.
159
You get the little paper packets of sugar and you do it at the table.
160
That is much better.
161
I don't like my coffee too sweet.
162
If you are still listening, comment LATTE below.
163
We want to know who is practicing with us.
164
Yes, comment LATTE.
165
It's one of my favorite words.
166
It sounds so fancy, but it's just coffee and milk.
167
It really is.
168
So, Paul, after all the questions,
169
it is time to pay.
170
The most important part?
171
Usually, the barista tells you the price.
172
They might say, that'll be $5.50.
173
And then they look at you and wait.
174
In many countries, we use cards or phones to pay now.
175
Right.
176
I usually use my phone,
177
so I ask, can I pay by card,
178
or I just hold up my phone and they point to the machine.
179
The machine makes a little beep sound.
180
I love that sound.
181
It means my coffee is coming.
182
Yes, the beep of happiness.
183
And then the barista might ask for your name.
184
Oh, yes.
185
This is a classic.
186
They want to write your name on the cup.
187
But sometimes they make mistakes.
188
One time I told the barista my name is Emily.
189
E-M-I-L-Y.
190
When I got my cup, it said Amelia.
191
Amelia?
192
That is not even close.
193
I know.
194
I just looked at the cup and laughed.
195
I didn't say anything because it doesn't matter, but it was funny.
196
One time, my friend went to a café.
197
His name is Mark with a C at the end.
198
When the barista asked for his name,
199
he said Mark with a C.
200
And what happened?
201
The barista wrote Cark on the cup.
202
C-A-R-K.
203
Ha ha!
204
Kark!
205
That is amazing!
206
Poor Mark!
207
We laughed for a long time about that.
208
So, listeners, if the name on your cup is wrong, don't worry.
209
It is a very normal thing.
210
Definitely.
211
Just wait for them to call a name that sounds like yours.
212
When they finish the coffee,
213
they usually put it on the counter and shout the name or the drink.
214
Like medium latte for Emily.
215
Or large green tea.
216
Exactly.
217
And then you say, thank you, have a nice day.
218
Have a nice day.
219
That is the perfect way to finish.
220
It's friendly and simple.
221
I always feel so good when I say that and the barista smiles back.
222
It's a nice connection.
223
It really is.
224
Hmm, Emily, I was thinking,
225
what if someone wants a snack with their coffee,
226
like a croissant or a cookie?
227
Oh, good point.
228
You can use the same sentence.
229
Can I also get a chocolate croissant, please?
230
Can I also get?
231
That is very easy.
232
You just add the word also.
233
Yes, or you can point to the food behind the glass and say,
234
I'll take one of those, please.
235
I'll take one of those.
236
I use that a lot when I don't know the name of the cake.
237
Sometimes the names are very long and difficult.
238
I do that too.
239
That brown thing, please.
240
The one with the strawberries.
241
Exactly.
242
It works every time.
243
Wow, Emily.
244
I feel like I am a coffee expert now.
245
I want to go to a cafe right now.
246
Me too.
247
I really need that caffeine.
248
Let's think about what we talked about today.
249
It was a lot of good stuff.
250
It was.
251
We started with walking into the shop and looking at the menu.
252
And we used that great phrase,
253
can I get and I would like.
254
Right.
255
And then we talked about the sizes, small, medium, and large.
256
Remember the soup bowl tea?
257
Yes, the giant tea.
258
And we talked about different milks,
259
like oat milk and soy milk.
260
And asking for sugar on the side.
261
That's very helpful if you want to control the sweetness.
262
Oh, and the names on the cups.
263
Don't be sad if they call you Kark.
264
Poor Kark.
265
And finally, paying with a card and saying, have a nice day.
266
It's so simple when you break it down like this.
267
It's not a scary lesson.
268
It's just a conversation.
269
Exactly.
270
And that is the best way to learn.
271
I agree.
272
I feel much more confident now,
273
and I think our listeners do too.
274
I hope so.
275
Remember, everyone, it's okay to make small mistakes.
276
The barista just wants to help you get your drink.
277
Yes, if you forget a word, just point.
278
Use your hands.
279
It's all okay.
280
Well, Paul, I think it is time for us to go find a real coffee.
281
I agree.
282
I am ready for my oat milk latte.
283
And I am ready for my… hmm, maybe a cappuccino today.
284
Sounds perfect.
285

Not only does this enhance your English speaking practice, but it also introduces essential vocabulary and phrases used in coffee shops.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
Throughout the conversation, several useful structures and expressions are highlighted that can be pivotal for casual interactions:
- “How are you?” - A basic but crucial greeting that opens up conversations.
- “I would like a…” - This phrase helps in making polite requests when ordering. For example, “I would like a cappuccino.”

Common Pronunciation Traps
When learning English, especially in context-specific scenarios like coffee shops, certain words can pose challenges. Here are a few that were discussed in the video:
- Café - Often mispronounced, it sounds like "ka-fay," not "ka-fee."
- Espresso - A common mispronunciation occurs when learners say “expresso” instead of the correct “es-press-o.”
- Latte - Many tend to overemphasize the 't', but it’s pronounced as “lah-tay.”
By focusing on the pronunciation of these words, learners can become more confident when placing orders. Practicing with these phrases regularly allows you to learn English with YouTube effectively and prepares you for real-world conversations. Don’t shy away from utilizing tools like shadowspeak to master these tricky terms!
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.
