Hello and welcome to 6 Minute English.
2
I'm Alice.
3
And I'm Neil.
4
OK, Alice, I've got something for you here.
5
Question?
6
Yeah?
7
You ready?
8
What is the Mexican version of Juan Direction?
9
Oh, erm...
10
No idea.
11
Juan Direction.
12
Oh...
13
Get it?
14
Very good.
15
Juan Direction, you know?
16
Yes, yes, I get it.
17
Never mind.
18
Can you guess what the subject of today's show is instead?
19
Is it bad jokes?
20
Oh come on, that was a good little gag!
21
Yes, the subject of today's show is what makes us laugh.
22
And in this context, to get something,
23
for example a gag or joke, means to understand it.
24
We all like to laugh – well,
25
not you Alice apparently, but most of us do.
26
It's good for our health.
27
It reduces stress and releases feel-good hormones in the body.
28
OK.
29
Thank you, Neil.
30
But how about answering today's quiz question?
31
Which Greek word means the study of laughter and its effects on the body? Is it...
32
A. Rhizology B.
33
Gelatology Or C.
34
Comology Hmm.
35
That's difficult.
36
and I'm going to say C,
37
comology, because it's got the word comedy in it, you see.
38
Oh, very good.
39
OK, well, we'll find out later if you're right.
40
Now, did you know we rarely laugh when we're on our own?
41
Laughter is a social thing that we generally like to share with other people.
42
Really?
43
I laugh when I'm watching cartoons on my own, don't you, Alice?
44
No, Neil, I don't.
45
Anyway, some researchers believe that the purpose of laughter is related to the way we bond with each other.
46
And the more we laugh,
47
the more we bond as a group.
48
Hmm, interesting idea.
49
It could explain why stand-up comedy,
50
where a comedian performs in front of and talks directly to their audience,
51
is very popular entertainment.
52
But what does it take to keep your audience laughing?
53
Let's listen to Steve Byrne,
54
a successful US comedian, talking about this.
55
The one single thing an aspiring comedian should do is to write,
56
write, write, and talk about the things that make them laugh,
57
It's time to be selfish.
58
It's time to be a little narcissistic.
59
What is it that makes you laugh?
60
Because that will get you closer to finding your voice,
61
because ultimately that's why people will come see you.
62
So, comedians need to be selfish and narcissistic.
63
That sounds pretty negative.
64
Yes, it does.
65
Narcissistic means being too interested in yourself,
66
for example, your appearance or other personal qualities.
67
And aspiring means wanting to be successful in your chosen career.
68
And what does Steve mean when he says comedians need to find their voice?
69
Well, he means they need to talk about what they think in a way that's unique,
70
meaning unusual or special to them.
71
OK, let's listen to Steve again,
72
talking about turning 40 and what he finds funny about that.
73
When you turn 40, you will hear this in your life and hopefully you'll hear it the rest of your life.
74
You look good for 40.
75
You look good for 52.
76
You look great for 63.
77
You never hear that when you're young.
78
You look good for 19.
79
You think there's going to be some secret potion or some magic shortcut to it all.
80
It's writing and getting up on stage.
81
It takes a lot of perseverance and it's such a competitive occupation,
82
you know, you just got to outwork everybody.
83
Well, we heard Steve making his audience laugh there and,
84
by the way Alice, you look fantastic for 40.
85
That's not funny, Neil.
86
I'm only 39 and you know it.
87
Anyway, moving on.
88
Steve says there's no magic potion or shortcut to success.
89
You have to work hard.
90
It doesn't happen by itself.
91
And perseverance means to keep on trying to achieve something even when it's difficult.
92
He says you have to outwork everybody,
93
which means to work harder than everybody else.
94
Steve certainly doesn't make comedy sound much fun, does he?
95
No. In fact, some people say there's a connection between depression and comedy,
96
that comedians can be introverted and depressive.
97
Is that right?
98
Introverts are generally quiet people who are more interested in their own thoughts and feelings than in spending time with other people.
99
Yes, you'd think that most comedians would be extroverts – people who are lively and enjoy the company of others.
100
OK, I think it's time for the answer to our quiz question, Neil.
101
I asked, which Greek word means the study of laughter and its effects on the body?
102
Is it a rhizology, b gelatology or c comology?
103
Yes, I said c comology which I think I'm beginning to regret now.
104
Yes, well indeed, sorry I'm afraid that's the wrong answer.
105
It's actually b gelatology which comes from the Greek word gelos meaning laughter.
106
You can stop sniggering now,
107
Alice, and just tell us today's words once again.
108
Alright then, here they are.
109
Get something.
110
For example, a joke.
111
Gag.
112
Stand-up comedy.
113
Narcissistic.
114
Aspiring.
115
Unique.
116
Perseverance.
117
Outwork.
118
introverts, extroverts.
119
Well, that just about brings us to the end of today's 6 Minute English.
120
See you next time.
121
Goodbye.

इस वीडियो के साथ बोलने का अभ्यास क्यों करें?
इस वीडियो में, हमें यह समझने का मौका मिलता है कि हंसी हमारे जीवन में कितनी महत्वपूर्ण है। इसे संवाद का एक प्रमुख हिस्सा माना जाता है, जिससे हम एक-दूसरे से जुड़ते हैं। ऐसी बातचीत में शामिल होने से न केवल आपकी अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग में सुधार होगा, बल्कि यह आपको सामाजिक संपर्कों में भी आत्मविश्वास देगा। जब आप किसी मजेदार परिदृश्य या चुटकुले जैसे विषयों पर बोलने का अभ्यास करते हैं, तो आप न केवल अपने बोलने के कौशल को बढ़ाते हैं, बल्कि सामाजिक स्थिति में भी सहज होते हैं। दूसरों के साथ हंसने से संबंधित अनुभव साझा करना हमारी shadowspeaks यात्रा का एक महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा है।
व्याकरण और अभिव्यक्तियाँ संदर्भ में
इस वीडियो में कुछ महत्वपूर्ण भाषाई संरचनाएँ एवं अभिव्यक्तियाँ हैं जो सीखने में सहायक हो सकती हैं:
- What makes us laugh – इस वाक्यांश में 'makes' क्रिया प्रदर्शित करती है कि हंसी का कारण क्या है।
- Did you know – यह एक सामान्य प्रश्नवाचक वाक्यांश है, जिसका उपयोग संवाद में जानकारी साझा करने के लिए किया जाता है।
- It's good for our health – यहाँ पर ‘It is’ के संकुचन का उपयोग प्राकृतिक बोलचाल का एहसास दिलाता है।
- अर्थ में कई सांस्कृतिक संदर्भ और वाक्यांश शामिल हैं, जैसे ‘get it,’ जो एक मजाक की समझ को दर्शाते हैं।
सामान्य उच्चारण की समास्याएँ
वीडियो में कुछ शब्द और उच्चारण हैं जो अंग्रेजी सीखने वालों के लिए चुनौतियों का कारण बन सकते हैं:
- ‘Laughter’ – इसे सही ढंग से उच्चारित करना जरूरी है, क्योंकि यह कई नये अंग्रेजी बोलने वालों के लिए मुश्किल हो सकता है।
- ‘Comedian’ – इस शब्द का सही उच्चारण 'कोमेडियन' सामान्यतः चुनौतीपूर्ण होता है।
- ‘Bond’ – इस शब्द को उच्चारण करते समय ध्यान देना आवश्यक होता है, खासकर जब यह सामाजिक संदर्भ में उपयोग होता है।
यदि आप इन शब्दों और वाक्यांशों का अभ्यास shadowspeak तकनीकों के माध्यम से करना चाहें, तो shadow speech को शामिल करें। इससे आपकी बातचीत की क्षमता और आत्मविश्वास बढ़ेगा।
शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
