1
Hello you beautiful people!
2
Today I woke up and I decided that I want to do something brand new.
3
I want to have a new experience.
4
So today you, me and Chang are gonna learn lots of English using the world around us and exploring a garden.
5
So we are on an organic farm being shown around by the lovely
6
Chang teaching us all about the fresh produce, the fresh herbs and plants that are growing here on the farm.
7
so these are the butterfly pea flowers a beautiful blue flower
8
that is used to color dishes it can make dishes blue if you want a blue pancake or some blue oats
9
maybe a blue face mask it can look like a smurfs
10
this is a black turmeric never had black turmeric before apparently it's very bitter
11
nice in the basket so this is stevia
12
which is like a natural low calorie sweetener they're using lots of products
13
but this is the fresh version this is cheng trying the stevia and it is so sweet. So sweet, right?
14
This is the Thai basil, different to the basil you find in Italy.
15
And it's really fragrant, I would use the smell.
16
Very bright.
17
If you're someone who struggles to speak English, you can understand a lot, but speaking feels hard.
18
I've created an English app that's going to help you prepare for real life conversations,
19
speak daily whenever you want and learn from AI feedback so that you can actively improve your English day by day.
20
The app is called Sprout and
21
if you join Sprout Infinity we have a weekly group class where you can talk with me
22
and other learners from around the world.
23
If you miss the group class you get private access afterwards and you can turn that into an English lesson.
24
You can also turn any YouTube video on any of your
25
favorite topics into your own complete English lesson with flashcards and AI conversation with an AI version of me.
26
He's called J .I and he's going to listen to you,
27
ask you questions and give you feedback on your English speaking so that you can become a more confident English speaker.
28
I am biased but Sprout really works.
29
If you want to find out more you can go to sproutlanguage .com or click the first link in the description box.
30
See you there.
31
We've never done anything like this before.
32
This is a new experience and it's lighting my brain up.
33
I'm learning loads about different herbs, different plants, the effect they have on our body,
34
what happens when we eat the food that is grown in the earth around us.
35
And it's a new experience and it's making me feel happy.
36
I'm spending time outside in the sun.
37
The idea of today is to learn lots of new English
38
and also to hopefully inspire you guys to try some new things wherever it is you live.
39
It's easy to take where we live for granted
40
which means to not appreciate the place that we live in
41
but there's always something new that we can do if we just look a little more deeply.
42
Wow, it's so delicate.
43
It's called a cat whisker because a cat has whiskers.
44
Whiskers are the little hairs on the side of the cat's mouth which help it sense the world around it.
45
And apparently this is good for kidney stones.
46
So I don't have those yet but maybe this will be good in the future. In the basket.
47
This is a kumquat which is part of the citrus family like oranges, limes, lemons and...
48
These kumquats are organic, so that means that they're grown fresh here on the farm.
49
They don't add anything extra to them.
50
In New Year, she just told me that it's very popular for people to have kumquat trees to
51
decorate their homes and have them look beautiful, but they add extra things in which are not good to eat the kumquats,
52
to make the kumquats more beautiful, but not for eating.
53
These are organic.
54
They are very good for your health.
55
So pretty, look at this rose.
56
Wow.
57
So this is a rose and the pink parts are called petals,
58
great word, and this green part here could be called the stem or the stalk.
59
The stem or the stalk.
60
And they dry this out to mix with maybe peppermint to put in a tea
61
or you can use it just to look at and calm you down because it's very pretty.
62
I know that one.
63
Yeah this is rosemary.
64
Do we use it at home?
65
Yes we use dried rosemary in cooking mainly. So apparently
66
if you put rosemary on your skin it's good to reflect the UV rays of the Sun to protect your skin.
67
And apparently it's for your memory
68
so for those of you wanting to learn more english words
69
get some rosemary in your dinner tonight magenta magenta yeah wow like the color yes
70
that's right yeah i know the color
71
and it doesn't this is green the magenta leaf makes things purple
72
or magenta which is i i didn't know that
73
but the color magenta i guess comes from boiling down this leaf and making things look magenta colored gorgeous So moving onwards, yeah,
74
down this path and above me is a pergola and a pergola is like a structure where the plants attach and
75
they grow creating some shelter from the Sun and Yeah, some structure for the plants.
76
This is called a pergola and I've taught this video before in the video
77
while I was in the English countryside in my dad's garden
78
and here I'm walking through a blue gate down the path walking down the path
79
Jang has bees on her hand these tiny bees
80
because she rubbed the holly basil on her skin do those bees sting? ouch? no no no no okay
81
they don't sting either
82
They're cute bees.
83
Bees are good for us all.
84
What do bees do?
85
They pollinate flowers.
86
Quick pronunciation though guys.
87
Americans would say basil, A, basil.
88
And where I'm from, the UK, we would say basil.
89
Ah, it's a short ah sound.
90
Basil for me, for British people.
91
Basil for American people.
92
Yes.
93
In the basket.
94
Oh, who do we have here?
95
A beautiful girl in a beautiful pink dress.
96
So, outfit check.
97
Shang is wearing a non -la on her head.
98
Give me a twirl.
99
A twirl as a spin.
100
She has a, wow, what's that?
101
A big camera attached with a strap.
102
And yeah, we have a little bag on right hand shoulder
103
and yeah this flowy pink dress made of silk gorgeous
104
and a curtsy she just did a curtsy which is what you do to the queen
105
now we are taking a little rest under some shelter i'm gonna take off my non -law reveal my
106
sweaty hair
107
but this is lovely we're just taking a little rest we have our baskets full of various flowers
108
and plants and herbs
109
and after this we're going to go back to the house to try some herbal tea
110
and a spot of lunch i believe so i'll see you guys very soon
111
Okay, so Chang, what are you holding?
112
Wheelbarrow.
113
It's fine.
114
We can't hear her but she's holding a wheelbarrow.
115
Put the basket in the wheelbarrow and let's come down the path.
116
Who says princesses don't work?
117
So now on the table we have the herbs and spices and we are about to make a pot of tea.
118
Cheers.
119
Cheers guys.
120
So now we are sitting down
121
and drinking a beautiful cup of tea with a rose inside and we pour the tea from the teapot.
122
The teapot has the handle which you hold and the spout.
123
This is the spout which you pour the liquid out from.
124
I'm pouring the tea from the teapot into the glass mug.
125
Well, here we have various spices.
126
So this is a big fat cinnamon stick.
127
Cylon cinnamon.
128
It's so sweet.
129
So guys, the lovely host, Heng, has prepared us a delicious lunch.
130
And we've already nearly finished a lot of it.
131
But I want to show you guys how we would prepare the banh sèo.
132
Banh sèo is a Vietnamese pancake.
133
So let's take a closer look.
134
So this is the rice paper.
135
And you dip it in the water to moisten it,
136
to make it pliable, malleable.
137
you take the pancake, the bento, put it inside, open it up.
138
Inside we have shrimp, bean sprouts, chives, mushrooms.
139
And now this big plate of veggies, I'm going to take some grated mango,
140
some grated cucumber, some purple leaves.
141
I don't know what these are.
142
It's hard to do with one hand, some lettuce.
143
Then you're supposed to roll it up like a big cigar.
144
And then you dip it in a sweet and sour sauce with chilli, garlic, vinegar, sugar.
145
Tastes amazing.
146
The rice paper is chewy, the pancake is crispy, you have the freshness from all the herbs,
147
the garlic and chili to give a bit of a kick, the acidity and the sweetness of the sauce.
148
So many flavors, so many textures, that's what makes food amazing and I'm very happy.
149
So guys we just finished eating, we had a beautiful healthy lunch and we got lots of goodies from the lovely Hang.
150
Got lots of healthy stuff here so I'm excited to try this at home.
151
And before we go I want to reveal, phone's ringing, grab driver, the final word of the day which is novelty.
152
Novelty is something new or different that feels interesting because you've never done it before.
153
So how can you make your English learning more novel?
154
How can you make it new
155
and exciting I challenge you to let me know in the comments thank you
156
so much for watching have a very beautiful healthy peaceful day and I'll see you next

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.
