1
Hey there, Aubrey.
2
What are you doing this weekend?
3
Well, I haven't been to the movies in ages.
4
So whatever happens, I want to see a movie.
5
Oh, I just went to the movies on Friday.
6
Oh, what'd you see?
7
I saw that movie Send Help.
8
Oh, I haven't even heard of it.
9
It was interesting.
10
It was a little crazy.
11
Would not recommend Zero Stars.
12
I feel like there are not a ton of great movies out right now.
13
There's a new one, but by the time this comes out, it'll be old anyway.
14
But yeah, it's true.
15
We're having a bit of a drought on amazing movies that are worth going to the theater for.
16
I can wait for streaming.
17
But I love going to the theater.
18
So I'll go to an average movie just to go to the theater.
19
I agree.
20
Well, this episode today, you'll notice I said, whatever happens, I want to see a movie.
21
We're talking about that phrase and some other ways to say that.
22
And this was inspired by something one of our students, Jennifer, posted in the Allers English community.
23
She said, you are safe happen to happen.
24
And then she said in Spanish, it's pase lo que pase.
25
She said, how do you say this in English?
26
I'm like, that's going to be a great episode.
27
Yep.
28
Yep.
29
I'm so excited to get into this and kind of what it means, what it means for connection.
30
But first we have to take a minute to recognize
31
and call out those that went and left us a review or a rating.
32
Wherever you listen today, we're looking at our Spotify listeners, right?
33
So first of all, Tony Sousa said, hi, Lindsay and Michelle.
34
My name is Tony Sousa.
35
I'm from Angola.
36
Without a doubt, discovering your podcast has been one of the best things that's ever happened to me.
37
I've learned so much from you both.
38
That is amazing.
39
That is amazing.
40
Thank you, Tony.
41
And everyone else who has left these amazing comments on Spotify, we read them.
42
They make our day.
43
We really appreciate it.
44
Yeah.
45
Huge thank you to Saddam Maud,
46
Satomi Parisan, Vlad Armstrong, and Orens Rowe were some of the reviewers and commenters just recently in Spotify.
47
So thanks guys.
48
If you want to have your name announced out loud on the show, leave us a rating and a review wherever you listen.
49
Okay.
50
Yes.
51
Awesome.
52
So we are going to dive into these phrases.
53
There are a few ways we say this in English.
54
In Spanish, it's pase lo que pase.
55
The most common one is just whatever happens is what this means like regardless of anything
56
that might happen in the future yes exactly whatever happens right
57
or whatever happens happens I guess too don't we sometimes add you could just say
58
that by itself like whatever happens happens but we'll also use
59
that in a phrase like for example whatever happens tomorrow I'm proud of you for trying yeah
60
or we'll stay friends whatever happens exactly yeah so the direct translation of
61
that pase lo que es just whatever happens happens we will often use this latin phrase too que sera sera
62
which means the same thing we'll hear it in music
63
sometimes it means the exact same thing yeah for sure um
64
but you're saying we use it in english we take the spanish
65
and we use it in english
66
sometimes right is what you mean yeah well is oh i guess that's spanish i was thinking it was latin
67
but i think it is spanish to say que sera sera que sera sera might be
68
because i but then it's pase lo que pase they maybe it's just two ways of saying
69
that listeners write in tell us is that latin or spanish
70
or both maybe it's the same in latin
71
and spanish maybe it's the same
72
but in english there are other things
73
you could say like no matter what happens this basically has the same meaning it's a little bit stronger more definite
74
um than whatever happens it's used to emphasize a true commitment you know you are committed to this person, this scenario, whatever it is,
75
we're not giving up no matter what happens.
76
I'm imagining like a survival situation, right?
77
Exactly.
78
Yeah.
79
Right.
80
And I'm realizing, I'm like, is that French?
81
Because it would be que sera, sera means will be.
82
So, but with that accent, the way we say que sera, sera is not very French. So interesting.
83
I'm curious now, but yeah.
84
So our second way, very similar, no matter what happens, you could say we're not giving up no matter what happens,
85
or no matter what happens with the job interview, let's celebrate tonight.
86
Yes.
87
Love it.
88
And then come what may.
89
Now this one's a little more rare.
90
I think it's more formal, more poetic, more dramatic.
91
You might hear it in a Broadway play or a poem or something.
92
Song maybe.
93
Exactly.
94
It's less common.
95
I did.
96
It's interesting.
97
I was able to use it in the role play and I think it makes sense.
98
I think sometimes we do use it in casual conversations, but it is more rare.
99
And we sort of intentionally use it to be more dramatic or a little more poetic with our speech.
100
Yeah.
101
For example, we'll move to the city and start fresh come what may.
102
Or she decided to speak her truth come what may.
103
Yes.
104
Love it.
105
Hey, quick question.
106
Do you want to feel more confident when you speak English?
107
If so, we made a free guide for you.
108
It'll help you avoid those common mistakes.
109
and start speaking more naturally in real conversations.
110
Go grab it in the description below.
111
And if this is helpful for you, make sure that you like and subscribe.
112
We're here five times a week to help you connect in English.
113
All right.
114
So let's see how these all fit into a nice, tidy role play, Aubrey.
115
So here, what's the scenario?
116
All right.
117
You and I are friends and it's the night before you move out of the country.
118
So you've got a big life change happening and I'm probably sad that my friend is leaving the country.
119
So these kind of conversations also remind me of leaving for college conversations, right?
120
Yes.
121
Did you have a lot of these when you're, you know, like you're 18 and everyone's going to different college,
122
at least for me, we all went to different colleges and oh, whatever happens, we're going to stay best friends
123
and absolutely right we're all saying
124
that no matter what happens we'll stay in touch we'll stay friends
125
and usually unfortunately that's not the case at least for me some of them some of them yes
126
but i lost touch with a lot of a lot of people from high school even from college
127
i'm terrible at staying in touch with people me too i'm
128
so bad i have to be very the other person has to be very intentional otherwise
129
it's probably not going to happen right that's so true unfortunately yeah All right.
130
I can't believe I'm actually leaving tomorrow.
131
I'm excited about this new job, but I'm also terrified.
132
That's completely normal.
133
It's a huge change.
134
What if it doesn't work out?
135
Whatever happens, you're brave for giving it a chance.
136
Not everyone would be up for it.
137
I'm worried I'm going to lose touch with friends.
138
Well, no matter what happens, we'll stay friends.
139
You promise?
140
Absolutely.
141
You're stuck with me come what may.
142
You got a little poetic in the end there, right?
143
Yeah, I was kind of, I'm intentionally getting emotional.
144
We're saying goodbye.
145
We might not see each other for a long time.
146
I could see myself using this phrase in this way to be like, you know, yeah, a little poetic.
147
A little poetic.
148
Exactly.
149
So again, yeah, this is a very familiar connection moment.
150
We're saying goodbye to someone that you care about, right?
151
So I said, what if it doesn't work out?
152
I'm nervous about my situation.
153
And you said?
154
I said, whatever happens, you're brave for giving it a chance.
155
And this, I really love this phrase as a connection skill, because if someone is expressing doubt about a decision they've made,
156
a big change that they're making, there are a lot of things that you could say that might hurt the connection.
157
Expressing doubt that they made the right choice, saying anything that makes them even more nervous.
158
There are so many things you could say that could be a problem.
159
This is a great thing to say.
160
That's a good, that's a good point.
161
Yeah.
162
It's an important connection moment where the right choice of words really matters.
163
Yeah.
164
You can say whatever happens, you're brave for giving it a chance.
165
And you're also saying, because there is a chance that you would move there, hate it or be like too lonely and immediately move back.
166
That certainly has happened.
167
And I'm already giving you the out to say like, even worst case scenario, even if that happens,
168
I'm proud of you for being brave and taking this chance, right?
169
What a great way to connect to let people know whatever happens however
170
this turns out I'm proud of you yes I love that
171
and then I expressed another worry I'm worried
172
I'm gonna lose touch with my friends right including this person in front of me including me right
173
so I said no matter what happens we'll stay friends yeah very common
174
I think I feel like no matter what happens is the most common here
175
I agree that's what I say the most
176
it feels the most casual conversational even you know whatever happens we do use
177
that chunk like you mentioned Lindsay whatever happens happens we'll say
178
that just to mean the same as this Spanish phrase right
179
like there's no way to control the future like whatever's gonna happen is is gonna happen yeah
180
and so you're the stable friend here and
181
so you got a little poetic at the end right
182
so you said you I said you promise
183
and you said absolutely you're stuck with me come what may
184
so that's nice yeah it's nice and it's also interesting
185
because I sort of needed a few different ways to say this throughout this conversation.
186
So it's nice that I had all three, right?
187
You don't want to repeat vocabulary.
188
You need multiple ways to express something sometimes.
189
So that's another reason you might say, come what may, if you've already said whatever happens or no matter what happens,
190
then you can say come what may.
191
Yeah.
192
100%.
193
We have a couple of minutes.
194
So Aubrey, when is the time in your life when you
195
You felt most like this, like you're on the precipice of a big change and you just were like, Oh, what am I doing?
196
You know, probably when I got married, I think I've shared this before in the podcast or with you,
197
Lindsay, that I did not know my husband very long when we got married.
198
We had only been dating and engaged for a few months.
199
We hadn't lived together yet.
200
That wasn't common in my culture.
201
And so we got married and I remember like the night before
202
and like my wedding day sort of having these feelings of like, am I ready for this?
203
It felt really big and like this huge change.
204
And so, yeah, I definitely felt it, but luckily it all worked out.
205
So maybe you remember someone that talked to you through it.
206
So we remember these moments, right?
207
And, and, and usually that person is quite stable and like, well, you need someone who's counteracting your anxiety in a way.
208
Yeah.
209
I remember talking to my mom about it, um, the night before my wedding.
210
And I wasn't, it's not that I was having cold feet, but I was like, wow, this is a big change, you know?
211
And she probably would have said something like this, like, no matter what happens, you're going to be fine.
212
It's all going to work out.
213
Yeah.
214
I love that.
215
I love that.
216
So these are connection moments because we do remember them 20 years later.
217
Right.
218
I mean, I, for me, I think when I moved to Japan, I just think it was such a big change.
219
And I remember, I think my parents, I took me out for dinner I think I had a flight out of New York
220
and they took me out for dinner the night before
221
and I was going through the crisis of I'm moving to
222
Japan for the next two years what what did I even do you know what am I thinking right
223
this very conversation you might have had with your mom
224
or your dad right yes I'm excited but I'm also terrified
225
but in a way it's really good
226
because the more of these big chances
227
we take in life kind of the richer our life does ultimately end up being in a way.
228
Imagine if you went back, if you had never taken that chance, how much you changed and grew as a person,
229
you wouldn't change that for anything.
230
Absolutely.
231
A hundred percent.
232
So today's episode really matters for that connection, for thinking back to the people that mattered that were there for you.
233
Right.
234
And each of our listeners, you guys can think about those moments for you too, and how you might have this conversation in English.
235
Absolutely.
236
Yes.
237
I'm excited for you to use this vocabulary to connect, to give this advice, right?
238
Whatever happens, you're brave for trying it.
239
It's going to work out, right?
240
To be able to support people in that way.
241
Yeah, guys, go check out 2616 if you love our style.
242
Our style is a special focus on human connection when you learn English.
243
That's what we do here.
244
So if you agree with that, if you love that, go check out 2616.
245
That's on me, admitting mistakes without making it awkward.
246
Okay, what a connection topic because you can make it really awkward
247
when you admit a mistake so you need the phrases to avoid
248
that for sure aubrey we'll see you back here on the show very soon have a good day
249
you too see you next time bye

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
