25
Our first real life English expression is to pepper in.
26
Now, before we talk about this, I want you to watch part of a clip from the conversation between Dan and I.
27
Listen for this expression.
28
Try to guess what you think it means.
29
Then we'll talk about it and then we'll watch the clip again.
30
And that second time, I guarantee you will understand it in a much deeper way.
31
All right, let's watch that clip and then we'll talk about it.
32
I would say we probably go maybe twice a week.
33
Oh, you think that often?
34
Yeah.
35
Well, once a week for the big shop and then there's sometimes a little shop peppered in there.
36
You heard us say, I'll go to the grocery store once a week for a big shop.
37
And then sometimes there's a little shop peppered in there.
38
Well, if you have ever added salt and pepper to your food,
39
you know that you should not add a ton of salt and a ton of pepper to your food.
40
You just add a little bit of salt, a little bit of pepper.
41
That's the idea here.
42
When you pepper in something, you're adding just a small amount throughout it.
43
So for me, I go to the grocery store once a week, I buy a lot of food, but sometimes I forget something, or maybe I need something extremely fresh.
44
Well, I will pepper in a little shop here and there.
45
Maybe on Wednesday I'll have to buy two things, and then on Saturday I have to buy three things.
46
This is just peppering in a little shop.
47
Let me give you another example of how you can use this wonderful expression.
48
If you have a presentation at work and it's the type of environment where you're trying to connect with your clients.
49
You're trying to make them feel comfortable with you.
50
Well, a great way to do that is with humor.
51
So you might pepper in a few jokes during your presentation.
52
It of course depends on the situation, but when you pepper in a few jokes,
53
you seem more relatable, you can connect with your clients in a better way,
54
and hopefully the presentation will stick with your clients and they'll remember you when you pepper in a few jokes.
55
Okay.
56
Let's watch the clip one more time.
57
And I want you to listen for that expression, to pepper in.
58
Let's watch.
59
I would say we probably go maybe twice a week.
60
Oh, you think that often?
61
Yeah.
62
Well, once a week for the big shop, and then there's sometimes a little shop peppered in there.
63
Did you hear to pepper in?
64
I hope so.
65
Let's go to our second everyday English phrase, and that is to strike up a conversation.
66
To strike up a conversation.
67
Let's watch the clip, listen for that phrase, and then we'll talk about it.
68
Let's go.
69
They'll usually say like, oh, how are you doing?
70
Are you doing anything interesting this afternoon?
71
Oh, have you ever tried this before?
72
Where are you from?
73
They'll generally strike up a conversation and that's part of the marketing.
74
You just heard us say they will strike up a conversation and that's part of the marketing.
75
So there are certain grocery stores in the US that really want to connect with their customers.
76
They're trying to connect on a personal level, not just with good food and good prices.
77
They want you to enjoy going to the store because the people who work there will strike up a conversation with you.
78
What does this mean to strike up a conversation?
79
It really just means to start a conversation.
80
The word strike could mean to hit or with a match.
81
When you want to light a fire, you strike up a match.
82
That's the kind of figurative idea we're going for here.
83
When you strike up a conversation, you went from nothing to a little flame,
84
a little interest, some connection with someone else.
85
So maybe for you, it could be a good opportunity to connect with someone else in English
86
and try to strike up a conversation with them.
87
If you have an English speaking coworker
88
and you both happen to be drinking coffee in the break room at the same time, try to strike up a conversation with them.
89
Ask them, what did you do last weekend?
90
Or do you have any plans for this coming weekend?
91
Great.
92
This is an excellent and simple way to strike up a conversation.
93
All right, let's watch that clip again, and I want you to listen for this expression.
94
Let's go.
95
They'll usually say like, oh, how are you doing?
96
Are you doing anything interesting this afternoon?
97
And oh, have you ever tried this before?
98
Where are you from?
99
They'll generally strike up a conversation and that's part of the marketing.
100
Yeah.
101
Did you hear to strike up a conversation?
102
I hope so.
103
Let's go on to our third everyday expression, which is to pick and choose.
104
This is kind of a strange expression because both of these words mean the same thing.
105
So I want you to listen carefully to the conversation clip and then we'll talk about it.
106
Let's go.
107
We don't do it all.
108
Uh-huh.
109
Yeah, we can't do it all, right?
110
We have to pick and choose a lot of things.
111
I know for me personally, I've had a lot of hobbies in the past that I've just had to cut out of my life.
112
You heard us say, we can't do it all.
113
We have to pick and choose.
114
Well, when you have a busy life, you cannot say yes to everything.
115
Okay, I will help with the school project.
116
I'm going to help in my community.
117
Oh, I'm also going to do this and this.
118
need to pick and choose.
119
Well, as I said, this is a strange expression because both of these words,
120
to pick something and to choose something, mean exactly the same.
121
So why do we say them both?
122
Why can't we just say, we need to pick what we do.
123
We need to choose what we do.
124
Okay.
125
You can say that, but for some reason, both of these words are linked together in English and this is a common phrase.
126
I think it's really emphasizing you need to choose.
127
You really need to carefully pick what you do because you have a limited amount of time and energy.
128
You need to pick and choose.
129
Now, just to let you know, you You can use this in a negative sense as well.
130
So if your kids are misbehaving, for example, not that my kids would ever misbehave.
131
If your children are misbehaving and they say, but it's the weekend, so I thought that I didn't have to do that.
132
Some rule at your house.
133
You might say, you can't pick and choose which rules to follow.
134
You have to follow them all.
135
It's not the child's choice to pick and choose which rules apply to them, right?
136
It's the parent's decision.
137
So you could say this expression, you can't pick and choose which rules to follow.
138
You need to follow them during the week and on the weekend.
139
This is a great way to use this expression in a negative sense.
140
You can't pick and choose.
141
All right.
142
Let's watch how this was used again in the conversation.
143
Listen carefully for pick and choose.
144
Let's go.
145
We don't do it all.
146
Uh-huh.
147
Yeah.
148
We can't do it all, right?
149
Yeah.
150
See, we have to pick and choose a lot of things.
151
I know for me personally, I've had a lot of hobbies in the past that I've just had to cut out of my life.
152
The fourth real-life English expression is gist, gist.
153
Notice that this is not pronounced gist, g-g.
154
Instead, it's pronounced gist, gist.
155
I want you to listen carefully for this in our conversation and then we'll talk about it.
156
Let's go.
157
You have to share stuff really well and you have to make sacrifices in your own life.
158
That's some really good wisdom.
159
Yeah.
160
That's the gist of it.
161
In the conversation, you just heard us say, that's the gist of it.
162
Well, what does this word mean?
163
It means that's the main idea.
164
If you're summarizing something, you could end with, well, that's the gist of it.
165
You haven't given every single detail, but you're giving an overall main idea.
166
And this might be something that happens to you as an English learner.
167
If you're listening to some English speakers have a conversation and you generally understand what they're saying,
168
maybe you couldn't participate at that quick level, but you can generally understand what you're saying, you could use this expression.
169
You could say, I get the gist of it.
170
I get, which means I understand, I get the gist of it.
171
And that's okay sometimes, right?
172
It's important to understand every word in some places, but if you don't understand, you might just get the gist of it.
173
All right, let's watch how this was used in our conversation one more time and listen carefully to that pronunciation, gist, to get the gist of it.
174
Let's watch.
175
You have to share stuff really well and you have to make sacrifices in your own life.
176
That's some really good wisdom.
177
Yeah.
178
That's the gist of it.
179
Did you get the gist of that expression?
180
Well, before we go on to expression number five, I want to let you know that if you enjoy this style of learning English,

203
All right, let's go on to daily life expression number five, which is to be all over the place.
204
Watch it in the real conversation and then we'll talk about it.
205
So when I feel hectic and I look back at the day, I think usually, oh, my brain was all over the place.
206
There were like 500 things going on and I couldn't focus on one of them.
207
In the conversation we said, my brain was all over the place.
208
There were so many things going on, I couldn't focus on one of them.
209
Well, within that sentence is the definition.
210
To be all over the place means that you cannot focus.
211
There are so many things going on that your brain is going here
212
and here and here and here and here and it's overwhelming.
213
So usually in life, we do not want to be all over the place.
214
We want to try to focus on the things that are in front of us, focus on our priorities.
215
So let's imagine that you're at work and one of your coworkers says, Hey, you seem to just be a little bit off today.
216
Something seems to be different.
217
Are you okay?
218
You might say, sorry, I'm just all over the place today.
219
There was a problem at my kid's school and I can't stop thinking about it.
220
Okay.
221
Well, your brain is in another place.
222
You're thinking about the school problem.
223
You're also trying to work.
224
So really you're going to need to focus, forget about the school for a moment and try to focus on your work.
225
But this is a great expression you can use in this situation.
226
All right, let's watch how that was used one more time and listen carefully for to be all over the place.
227
Let's watch.
228
So when I feel hectic and I look back at the day, I think usually, oh, my brain was all over the place.
229
There were like 500 things going on and I couldn't focus on one of them.
230
Well, I hope you are not all over the place right now
231
because we are going to move on to important daily life English expression number six, a can of worms.
232
You do not want to go to the grocery store and buy a can of worms.
233
What does this mean?
234
Well, Let's watch the conversation clip to get an idea about it, and then we'll talk about it.
235
Let's watch.
236
They want more flexibility, and I'm very curious what the future holds.
237
Yeah.
238
Yeah.
239
Yeah.
240
Let's go into- There's some give and take there, but you know.
241
Yeah, we'll see.
242
I know every culture's different.
243
This is a can of worms, apparently, this question.
244
You just heard us say, this question is a can of worms.
245
What does it mean?
246
Are we opening a can and there's worms inside, those little wriggly guys that live in the dirt?
247
No, that would be really gross, right?
248
Instead, this means that this question sometimes causes more problems when you try to deal with it.
249
So if you open the can of worms, now you have to deal with all these worms going all over the place.
250
That's a harder thing than when they were closed up.
251
So you can use this in a really interesting way.
252
If you're at the dinner table and you want to talk about something that happened in local politics,
253
maybe a local politician made a decision to use a large amount of money for something that you don't agree with.
254
Well, you might say this, talking about politics at dinner last night just opened a can of worms.
255
I thought I was just going to share my opinion, but everyone wanted to share their opinions as well, and the topic just got out of hand.
256
It was a can of worms.
257
And usually talking about politics is a can of worms.
258
There's the surface topic, the politician used money in a way that you don't agree with.
259
And then there are all of the topics that are underneath that as well.
260
It's just a can of worms to talk about politics, right?
261
All right, let's watch the original clip so that you can see how to use this fun expression, a can of worms.
262
Let's watch.
263
They want more flexibility and I'm very curious what the future holds.
264
Yeah.
265
But yeah, let's go on to- There's some give and take there, but you know.
266
Yeah, we'll see.
267
I know every culture's different.
268
This is a can of worms apparently, this question.
269
I hope that this lesson is not a can of worms.
270
The next expression is one that you heard me use at the beginning of this lesson.
271
It blows my mind.
272
Let's see how this was used in the original conversation and then we'll talk about it.
273
Let's go.
274
There's a yoga studio near us that's called Asheville Community Yoga and it's a nonprofit, which means all the teachers are volunteers.
275
It blows my mind because some teachers teach there every day.
276
You heard us say, all the teachers who teach there are volunteers.
277
It blows my mind.
278
Some of the teachers teach there every single day.
279
So we were talking about a local yoga studio that runs entirely on volunteer teachers.
280
That's amazing, isn't it?
281
And that's the essence of this expression.
282
When something blows your mind, it's something that amazes you or surprises you.
283
We usually use this for things that are slightly positive.
284
So people are volunteering to teach.
285
That is really positive, right?
286
It blows my mind that people are so giving, that they care so much about the community that they would volunteer every day to teach.
287
How cool is that?
288
Or you can use it like this.
289
It blows my mind how fast technology changes.
290
Right now there are a lot of changes, especially with AI, artificial intelligence, and those things change pretty quickly, right?
291
It can be shocking how fast technology changes.
292
So we can use this expression, it blows my mind how fast technology changes.
293
Maybe it blows your mind how wonderful these English lessons are.
294
I hope so.
295
All right, let's watch how this was used in the original conversation.
296
There's a yoga studio near us that's called Asheville Community Yoga, and it's a nonprofit, which means all the teachers are volunteers.
297
It blows my mind because some teachers teach there every day.
298
I hope this lesson blows your mind.
299
Let's go on to daily life expression number eight, and that is out of the goodness of my heart.
300
This is a long expression, but it's a lovely one.
301
All right, let's watch how it was used in the original conversation and then we'll talk about it.
302
And they're just doing it out of the goodness of their heart.
303
And it's so cool.
304
I love that type of giving atmosphere, but I would go there twice a week or so.
305
You just heard us say they do it out of the goodness of their heart.
306
I love that kind of giving atmosphere.
307
So talking about those teachers who volunteer every day at the yoga studio, why do they do it?
308
It's certainly not for money because they're not getting paid.
309
It's probably not for career advancement.
310
Why do they do it?
311
Well, they do it out of the goodness of their heart.
312
Yes, they do it just because they have a big heart and want to share love with other people.
313
When you do something kind without expecting anything in return, you can use this phrase.
314
So, I could say after I had my last baby, my neighbor brought me food so that my family could eat.
315
Why did she do it?
316
Well, I certainly wasn't going to be able to make food to give back to her.
317
She gave me food out of the goodness of her heart.
318
That's so kind.
319
And I want to say just a quick little grammar note that the pronoun here, out of the goodness of her heart,
320
the teachers teach out of the goodness of their hearts, that pronoun has to match the subject.
321
I do it out of the goodness of my heart.
322
So make sure that those match so that you're using this expression correctly.
323
All right, let's watch how it was used in the original conversation.
324
And they're just doing it out of the goodness of their heart.
325
And it's so cool.
326
I love that type of giving atmosphere.
327
I would go there twice a week or so.
328
Daily life expression number nine is a long word, accountability.
329
Accountability.
330
I want you to listen carefully for this in the conversation and then we'll talk about it.
331
I feel like this is the perfect scenario for us
332
that we have someone across the street who can give us accountability and can do that for us, can help us.
333
I just show up.
334
I don't need to think.
335
She shows me what to do.
336
She makes the plan.
337
It's so lovely.
338
You heard us say, we have someone who can give us accountability and teach us how to work out.
339
So what is accountability?
340
It's when you're responsible for your actions or decisions.
341
But the truth is sometimes it's hard to decide to go to the gym.
342
It's hard to study English every day.
343
Having the motivation to do those things is just not natural for a lot of us.
344
So we need to get accountability from someone else.
345
So for Dan and I, we pay someone to help us work out.
346
I do not have the internal motivation to go to the gym and learn how to lift weights.
347
I don't know how to do that safely.
348
And to be honest, I probably wouldn't go to the gym multiple times a week when I'm tired, it's been a long day.
349
But when this person is waiting for me at four o'clock to work out, all of a sudden I have the motivation.
350
I go there, I work out and I have accountability.
351
She helps me to have accountability.
352
We can use another version of this word, but it means the same thing.
353
You might ask your friend, let's say you have a friend who's learning English, you might say, could you help me to be accountable?
354
And you're asking your friend to remind you, hey, have you studied English today?
355
Oh, do you want to speak English on Saturday with me?
356
Let's do it.
357
You want to connect with your friend to help you to be accountable for your actions, to be responsible for your actions.
358
And if you don't have someone in your life who will help you to be accountable for learning English, I invite you to join us in the Fearless Fluency Club.
359
There are weekly speaking groups that meet from all time zones, all around the world, and these groups practice speaking English together.
360
The best way to stay motivated to actually improve your English
361
speaking skills is to have an appointment to speak together with someone else every single week when you know, All right.
362
On Friday evening, I'm going to join my English speaking group in the Fearless Fluency Club.
363
I need to listen to that podcast today.
364
I need to study this lesson tomorrow so I will be ready when we meet together.
365
That's great accountability.
366
You don't have to just depend on yourself.
367
You can connect with other people and actually learn together.
368
So in the Fearless Fluency Club, one of the benefits is that you have accountability.
369
Other people are on the same journey and they will meet with you
370
and help you as well on your English journey to improving and becoming fluent.
371
If you would like to get some accountability, you're welcome to join us.
372
Just click on the link in the description to join the Fearless Fluency Club today.
373
All right, let's watch that clip where we used accountability in our conversation.
374
Let's watch.
375
I feel like this is the perfect scenario for us
376
that we have someone across the street who can give us accountability and can do that for us, like can help us.
377
I just show up.
378
I don't need to think.
379
She shows me what to do.
380
She makes the plan.
381
It's so lovely.
382
And our final 10th expression before our bonus expression that we use in daily conversation is hit or miss.
383
Let's take a look at how that was used and then we'll talk about it.
384
All right.
385
I don't know about all Americans.
386
Let's Let's just talk about us.
387
I think this is pretty hit or miss.
388
I don't think there's a standard.
389
In this conversation, we were talking about if Americans brush their teeth in the morning or the evening or both, before or after breakfast.
390
This is a very interesting question, I think.
391
Very cultural idea.
392
In the conversation, we said, I think it's pretty hit or miss.
393
I don't think there's a standard.
394
Well, there's not a specific thing that every American knows and does related to this topic.
395
So this expression here, hit or miss, has to do with that idea.
396
Sometimes the answer is yes, sometimes the answer is no. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad.
397
There's some variability.
398
So let me give you another example of how you can use hit or miss.
399
There's a taco restaurant in my town that Dan and I like to go to, but lately we haven't gone there that much because sometimes the food is hit or miss.
400
It's not consistent every time we go there.
401
Sometimes it's amazing and sometimes it's just kind of cold and not that great.
402
So we could say that restaurant is hit or miss.
403
On a good day, it's amazing.
404
But if it's not on a good day, it's not the greatest place.
405
So it's a little bit hit or miss.
406
Okay.
407
Let's watch how that was used in the original conversation and then I'll teach you the bonus phrase.
408
Let's go.
409
All right.
410
I don't know about all Americans.
411
Let's just talk about us.
412
I think this is pretty hit or miss.
413
I don't think there's a standard.
414
I hope my English lessons are not hit or miss for you.
415
I hope everyone is a hit.
416
I hope you love them all.
417
All right.
418
Our bonus phrase for today is, I get it.
419
And it has to be said in this tone of voice.
420
I get it.
421
So let's see how it was used in the conversation
422
and then I'll break it down so that you can use it yourself in your English conversations.
423
Let's watch.
424
But I get it.
425
When you eat kimchi, you need to brush your teeth.
426
There's little red flecks of pepper always in your teeth.
427
You just heard us say, I get it.
428
When you eat kimchi, you need to brush your teeth.
429
Here, I'm using this phrase, I get it to say, I understand.
430
But the tone of voice that I used, I get it.
431
When you eat kimchi, you need to brush your teeth.
432
I'm kind of emphasizing.
433
I get it.
434
I actually do understand.
435
I get it.
436
When you eat kimchi, you need to brush your teeth.
437
You are letting the other person know with emphasis, I really do understand.
438
This is something that I have no hesitations about.
439
I get it.
440
So let me give you another situation when you can use this expression.
441
If you are at home and let's say like in my house, my husband Dan comes home from work after me.
442
So he comes in and he is just exhausted.
443
The look on his face says, I had a really busy day today.
444
And he says to me, oh, Vanessa, I'm so tired.
445
I know you've had a busy day too, but I just need five minutes to lay down on the couch." I could use this expression.
446
I could say, oh, you're tired.
447
I get it.
448
Go lay down.
449
That's no problem.
450
Oh, great.
451
So here I am telling him, I understand with emphasis that you've had a tired day and laying down for five minutes is not long,
452
but it can feel rejuvenating.
453
So I get it.
454
Go lay down.
455
No problem.
456
Now just a note, you can say this with some negativity in your voice.
457
So let's say I've had a terrible day.
458
I've had an extremely long day and my husband comes home and he asks me, Vanessa, I've had such a long day.
459
I need an hour to just go lay down.
460
I'm going to go take a walk for 30 minutes.
461
I need to do something to help calm my brain and my body.
462
Well, that means it's an extra 30 minutes or an extra hour
463
that I'm with the kids by myself and I need a break.
464
So if I'm a little annoyed, I could still use this expression, but with an annoyed tone of voice.
465
I might say, you're tired.
466
I get it.
467
Okay, go do what you need to do.
468
Ooh, that's pretty harsh, right?
469
But we often are annoyed or frustrated in daily life.
470
It is a normal human thing.
471
So you can use this expression to say, I understand, but really your true feelings are, I don't want you to do this.
472
Okay.
473
I get it.
474
Fine.
475
Just go.
476
You understand, but you really don't understand.
477
All right.
478
Let's hear how this was used in the real conversation of final time and listen to my tone of voice.
479
It's not negative.
480
I just understand.
481
Let's watch.
482
But I get it.
483
When you eat kimchi, you need to brush your teeth.
484
little red flecks of pepper always in your teeth.

Vous vous entraînez en anglais avec "Speak English Confidently: Daily Life Vocabulary" en utilisant la technique du Shadowing.
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.
