शैडोइंग अभ्यास: 🔧 Calling a Repair Man at Home - Slow and Easy English For Beginners - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

Welcome to English Listening Channel.

Hello, everyone.

Today, we're going to look at a conversation at home.

In this video, you will follow a simple and practical story between a woman and a repairman.

Don't worry, I will speak slowly and clearly, so please relax and enjoy the story.

Before we start, I have a small question for you.

Please listen carefully to find the answer.

This will help you understand English more deeply.

So here is today's question.

How often should you clean an air conditioner filter?

The answer is mentioned in the conversation.

If you find the answer, please write it in the comments section.

By writing your answer in English, you can improve your English skills even more effectively.

Alright, let's start the video.

Are you ready?

OK, let's begin.

Good morning, Sam.

Wow, it is so hot in here.

Good morning.

Yes, it is.

I think the air conditioner is not working.

Let me check it.

I turned it on, but the air is not cold.

That is strange.

It worked fine last week.

I can hear it running, but the room is still hot.

Maybe something is wrong inside it.

We can look at it later.

It is hard to sleep when it is this hot.

I know.

Summer is really here now.

Wait, what is that sound?

Drip, drip, drip.

It is coming from the kitchen.

Look, there is water under the sink.

Oh no, the floor is wet.

Is the pipe broken?

Maybe.

Let me put a towel here for now.

The water is slowly spreading.

We need to stop it soon.

I know, but I'm not sure how.

Let me think.

And look at the light.

It keeps going on and off.

You are right.

It is flashing.

Three problems in one morning.

This is too much.

What should we do?

Do not worry.

Our building has a repairman.

His name is Mike.

Oh, the man from the first floor?

Yes, that is him.

He fixes many things in our building.

We can call him.

Good idea.

Can he fix all three things in one visit?

I think so.

He is very good at his job.

Okay.

Let me write the problems on paper.

The air conditioner, the water, and the light.

Good.

A list will help.

Then you can show him everything.

Done.

Three problems on one list.

That looks clear.

Write the air conditioner at the top.

It is the hottest problem.

Good idea.

The air conditioner first.

Perfect.

Let us call him right now.

Ali, I am sorry, but I have to go to work now.

What?

You were leaving?

But the repairman is coming.

I know.

I am sorry.

You can do it.

It is easy.

But I have never talked to a repairman alone.

Do not worry.

Just show him the list.

He will understand.

Okay.

What else should I do?

First, take some photos of the problems with your phone.

Photos?

Why?

If you have photos, you can show the problem clearly.

They also help you later.

That is smart.

I will take photos of the sink and the light now.

Good.

There is one more important thing.

100

What is it?

101

Ask him the price first.

102

Before he starts, ask how much it will cost.

103

Ask the price first.

104

Got it.

105

I do not want a big surprise.

106

Exactly.

107

A good repairman will always tell you the price before he starts.

108

Okay.

109

Should I pay him with cash?

110

Cash or card is fine.

111

We have some cash in the kitchen drawer.

112

Good.

113

Anything else I should remember?

114

Just be polite and ask questions.

115

If you don't understand, ask him to explain again.

116

Ask him to explain again.

117

Okay.

118

I think I can do this.

119

One more thing.

120

Watch what he does.

121

Then you can learn for next time.

122

That is a good idea.

123

I will watch and ask questions.

124

You can.

125

Mike is kind.

126

Call me if you need me.

127

Good luck.

128

Thanks, Sam.

129

See you tonight.

130

See you.

131

Have a good day.

132

Oh, someone is at the door.

133

Who is it?

134

Hello.

135

I am Mike, the repairman.

136

Did you call about some problems?

137

Yes.

138

Thank you for coming so fast.

139

Please come in.

140

Thank you.

141

Wait one moment.

142

Let me put on my shoe covers.

143

Shoe covers?

144

Yes, they go over my shoes.

145

They keep your floor clean.

146

Oh, that is very kind.

147

Thank you.

148

No problem.

149

I always wear them in people's homes.

150

So, what can I do for you today?

151

I have a list.

152

There are three problems.

153

Three?

154

Okay.

155

Let me see your list.

156

First, the air conditioner is not cold.

157

Second, there is water under the kitchen sink.

158

OK.

159

And the third one?

160

The light keeps flashing.

161

A list is very helpful.

162

Thank you.

163

Most people forget one problem, but you wrote them all down.

164

My friend told me to make a list.

165

That was good advice.

166

It saves time for both of us.

167

I also took photos of the problems.

168

Would you like to see them?

169

Yes, please.

170

Photos help me a lot before I start.

171

Here.

172

This is the sink, and this is the light.

173

Very clear.

174

Thank you.

175

I can fix all three today.

176

Really?

177

That is great news.

178

I was worried it would take many days.

179

No. These are common problems.

180

Let us start with the water.

181

Water problems are the most important.

182

Why is the water most important?

183

Because water can hurt your floor and your things.

184

We should stop it first.

185

That makes sense.

186

Okay, the kitchen is this way.

187

Okay, let us go.

188

Okay, let me look under the sink.

189

Can you open this door for me?

190

Sure, here. Be careful.

191

The floor is wet.

192

Thank you.

193

I see.

194

There is a small pipe here, and it is dripping.

195

Is it bad?

196

Is the pipe broken?

197

No, the pipe is fine.

198

The problem is this small rubber part.

199

It is old.

200

A rubber part?

201

Yes.

202

It is called a washer.

203

It stops the water.

204

When it gets old, water drips out.

205

I see.

206

Why does it get old?

207

Water runs through it every day for years, so slowly it gets soft and weak.

208

That makes sense.

209

Is it hard to fix?

210

No, it is easy and cheap.

211

But first I need to turn off the water.

212

How do you turn off the water?

213

See this little handle under the sink?

214

This is the water valve.

215

I turn it like this.

216

Oh, the dripping stopped.

217

Yes, every sink has a valve like this.

218

If you have a leak, you turn it off first.

219

That valve is good to know.

220

I can turn it off myself next time.

221

Exactly.

222

Now I can change the washer.

223

It will take only a few minutes.

224

Okay, I will watch you so I can learn.

225

Good.

226

Here is the old washer.

227

See how thin it is?

228

And here is the new one.

229

The new one is much thicker.

230

Right.

231

A new washer is soft, so it stops the water well.

232

How long will this new one last?

233

Many years.

234

You do not need to worry about it for a long time.

235

That is good to hear.

236

Okay, the new washer is on.

237

Let me turn the water back on.

238

No more dripping.

239

Amazing.

240

One problem fixed.

241

Two more to go.

242

Now, let us look at the air conditioner.

243

You said the air is not cold?

244

Right.

245

I turn it on, but the room stays hot.

246

Let me check it.

247

Hmm.

248

The air conditioner is on, but the air is weak.

249

Why is that?

250

Let me open the front.

251

Ah, here is the problem.

252

Look at this filter.

253

Oh, it is very dirty.

254

It is gray with dust.

255

Yes, a dirty filter is the number one reason an air conditioner stops cooling.

256

Really?

257

Just dust?

258

Yes.

259

The dust blocks the air, so the cold air cannot come out well.

260

I did not know that.

261

I have never cleaned it.

262

Many people forget, but a clean filter is very important.

263

Can you clean this one?

264

I can clean it with water, but yours is very old, so I will put in a new one.

265

Okay.

266

How often should I clean the filter?

267

Once a month is good.

268

It is easy.

269

You just take it out and wash it.

270

Once a month.

271

How do I take it out?

272

You open this front part and the filter slides out.

273

Then you wash it and let it dry.

274

That looks simple.

275

Does a clean filter also save money?

276

Yes, good question.

277

A clean filter uses less electricity, so your bill is lower too.

278

That is great.

279

A clean filter saves money and keeps the room cool.

280

Exactly.

281

There, the new filter is in.

282

Listen, the air is strong now.

283

Oh yes, I can feel the cold air.

284

The room feels better already.

285

Good.

286

Two problems fixed.

287

One more to go.

288

Last one.

289

The light that flashes.

290

Can you turn it on for me?

291

Sure.

292

See, it goes on and off by itself.

293

I see it.

294

Okay, let me check the bulb first.

295

I will use my ladder.

296

Be careful up there.

297

Thank you.

298

Do not worry.

299

I do this every day.

300

Ah, I see.

301

The bulb is loose.

302

The bulb is loose?

303

That is all?

304

Often, yes.

305

When a bulb is a little loose, the light flashes.

306

Let me turn it until it is tight.

307

Oh, it stopped flashing.

308

The light is steady now.

309

Good.

310

A loose bulb is a very common problem.

311

So I can check the bulb myself next time?

312

Yes, but first turn off the light.

313

Never touch a bulb when the light is on.

314

Oh, right, because of the electricity.

315

Yes, always be safe with electricity.

316

Turn it off and let the bulb cool down first.

317

I will remember that.

318

Turn it off and wait.

319

Good, but this bulb is also old.

320

Let me put in a new one to be safe.

321

Should I buy the same kind of bulb next time?

322

Yes.

323

Just take the old bulb to the store and show it.

324

Then you get the right one.

325

That is easy.

326

Take the old one and show it.

327

Right.

328

Here is the new bulb.

329

Let me turn it until it is tight.

330

Thank you.

331

The new bulb looks bright and nice.

332

Yes.

333

And new bulbs use less electricity, so they are better.

334

Another way to save money.

335

That's right.

336

All done.

337

Three problems, all fixed.

338

You are fast!

339

Thank you so much.

340

You're welcome.

341

Let me clean up my tools.

342

So, how much is it?

343

Let me count the total.

344

There is a small visit fee of $20.

345

Okay, a visit fee.

346

Then the parts.

347

A new washer, a new filter, and a new bulb.

348

That is $30.

349

And your work?

350

My work for three jobs is $40.

351

So the total is $90.

352

$90 for everything.

353

That is fair.

354

Thank you for telling me first. Of course.

355

Here is your receipt.

356

Keep it.

357

You might need it later.

358

Thank you.

359

Can I pay with cash?

360

Cash is fine.

361

Thank you.

362

Here is $90.

363

Thank you.

364

Have a nice day.

365

Call me if you need anything.

366

I will.

367

Thanks again, Mike.

368

Bye.

369

I am home.

370

Oh, the room is so cool now.

371

It feels great.

372

Welcome home.

373

Yes, Mike fixed the air conditioner.

374

And the water?

375

And the light?

376

All fixed.

377

No more dripping, and the light is steady now.

378

That is wonderful.

379

So how was it?

380

Was it hard?

381

No, it was fine.

382

I showed him the list, and I asked the price first.

383

Good job.

384

How much was it?

385

$90 for all three.

386

And look, I have the receipt.

387

That is a good price.

388

I am proud of you.

389

Thanks, and I learned a lot today.

390

Really?

391

Like what?

392

Now I know where the water valve is, and I will clean the air conditioner filter every month.

393

Wow, you learned more than me.

394

Next time I can fix small things myself.

395

See?

396

You did not need me at all.

397

Well, a little.

398

Now let us enjoy our cool room.

399

How was it?

400

I hope this video helped you improve your English.

401

Now let me ask the question from the beginning one more time.

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।
