Easy listening and speaking practice.
3
Do you stop speaking because you're not sure which tense to use?
4
Present, past, future?
5
It all feels confusing?
6
Today, we'll fix that, step by step, simply and clearly.
7
Hi, everyone.
8
I'm Lucy.
9
Welcome Welcome to the Daily English Podcast.
10
This is an easy English podcast for learners who want to improve listening and speaking skills.
11
Nice opening, Lucy!
12
Hi everyone!
13
I'm John, and honestly, that confusion is normal.
14
Tenses look scary until you see the pattern underneath them.
15
Exactly!
16
So today, we're not just naming twelve tenses.
17
going to make them feel useful, practical, and a lot less stressful.
18
And we'll keep it simple.
19
I'll give examples, you'll hear the difference, and hopefully your brain will start saying, Oh, I get it.
20
Let's begin with the big idea.
21
A tense tells us when something happens, but also how it happens in time.
22
Is it a habit?
23
Is it happening now?
24
Is it finished?
25
Is it continuing?
26
That's the key.
27
English groups the twelve tenses into three time families – present, past, and future.
28
Each family has four forms.
29
So if you remember four ideas – simple, continuous, perfect, and perfect continuous,
30
you already have the map.
31
Right.
32
The words sound technical, but the meaning is actually very human.
33
We use grammar to tell a story clearly.
34
Let's start with the present tenses.
35
John, what is present simple?
36
Present simple is for habits, facts, routines, and schedules.
37
For example, I eat breakfast at seven, the sun rises in the east,
38
And she works in a hospital.
39
So, it's like a regular life tense.
40
Exactly.
41
Not now now, but usually, often, every day.
42
I like that.
43
Listen to these.
44
I drink tea every morning.
45
My brother plays football on Saturdays.
46
The train leaves at eight.
47
Good.
48
And a common mistake is using present continuous for a routine.
49
If you say, I am drink tea every morning, that sounds wrong.
50
Because the action is not happening right this second.
51
It's a habit.
52
Yes.
53
Present simple is stable.
54
It's your daily pattern.
55
Okay.
56
Now, present continuous.
57
This one sounds more alive.
58
It is.
59
Present continuous is for actions happening now or temporary situations.
60
For example, I am speaking now.
61
She is studying for an exam.
62
We are staying in a small hotel this week.
63
I'm wearing a blue shirt today.
64
That's a temporary thing, right?
65
Right?
66
Perfect example.
67
It's not permanent.
68
It's what's happening around this time.
69
And we also say, Look, it's raining.
70
Or, Sorry, I'm driving right now.
71
Yes.
72
And that last one is very useful in real life.
73
If someone calls you, you can say, I'm driving.
74
I'll call you back.
75
So, present simple is regular life,
76
and present continuous is action in progress or temporary life.
77
Exactly.
78
And the difference matters.
79
Now, present perfect.
80
This one confuses a lot of learners.
81
It confuses people because it connects past and present.
82
We use it for finished actions that have a present result,
83
or for life experience, or for actions in an unfinished time period.
84
Give us examples.
85
Sure.
86
I have finished my homework.
87
She has visited Japan.
88
We have lived here for three years.
89
So the homework is done now.
90
Japan is part of her life experience.
91
And the living continues up to now.
92
Exactly.
93
The result or connection is in the present.
94
I've also heard, have you ever been to London?
95
Yes, that's life experience.
96
And if you say, I saw that movie yesterday, that is past simple.
97
But if you say, I have seen that movie, you're focusing on the experience or the present relevance.
98
That is such a useful difference.
99
It really is.
100
What about present perfect continuous?
101
That one focuses on duration.
102
It shows an action that started in the past and is still continuing,
103
or just stopped but is important because of how long it lasted.
104
So, it's about time passing.
105
Exactly.
106
For example, they have been waiting for an hour.
107
I have been studying all morning.
108
It has been raining since noon.
109
I like that, because you can feel the length of the action.
110
Yes.
111
Duration is the heart of it.
112
Let's do a quick check.
113
John, if I say, I am living here for five years, is that correct?
114
Hmm.
115
Not really.
116
Better, I have lived here for five years, or I have been living here for five years.
117
The first focuses on the result, the second on the duration.
118
Great.
119
Now, let's move into the past tenses.
120
Past simple first.
121
Past simple is for completed actions in the past at a definite time.
122
For example, I visited my grandma yesterday.
123
She cooked dinner last night.
124
They arrived at 6 p.m.
125
So, the time is finished and the action is finished too.
126
Yes, it's clean and complete.
127
I went to the store.
128
I watched a movie.
129
We had coffee after class.
130
Good.
131
And if you add yesterday, last week, two days ago, those are classic past simple signals.
132
What about past continuous?
133
Past continuous is for an action in progress in the past.
134
It often sets the background for another action.
135
For example, I was cooking when the phone rang.
136
She was reading while the children were playing outside.
137
Oh, so one thing was happening, and then something interrupted it.
138
Exactly.
139
You can almost see the scene in your head.
140
The background was continuing, then another event happened.
141
Like, it was raining when we left home.
142
Let's practice with some examples.
143
Like, it was raining when we left home.
144
Perfect!
145
Like, it was raining when we left home.
146
The tense of a verb in English means how the action happened.
147
Let's look at another example.
148
I was driving when I saw him.
149
Pause for a moment.
150
Here's a different example to compare the past continuous with the past simple.
151
I was driving when I saw an accident.
152
I was thinking about lunch when my friend called.
153
Yes, and that sounds very natural.
154
Past continuous gives motion to the story.
155
Now, the tricky one.
156
Past perfect.
157
Past perfect shows the earlier of two past actions.
158
By the time we arrived, the movie had started.
159
She had already left when I called.
160
So, one past action happened before another past action.
161
Right.
162
It helps us line up events clearly.
163
If I say, when I got there, they ate dinner, the order is unclear.
164
But, when I got there, they had already eaten dinner is much clearer.
165
That is a big difference.
166
Huge difference, yes.
167
And past perfect continuous?
168
That one focuses on duration before another past moment.
169
He had been working all day before he went home.
170
They had been talking for an hour when the teacher arrived.
171
So again, we feel the length of the action, but now in the past.
172
Exactly.
173
It shows a long action leading up to another past event.
174
I can see how past tenses are really for storytelling.
175
Absolutely.
176
They help you build a timeline.
177
Let's go to the future tenses.
178
Future Simple first.
179
Future Simple is for predictions and spontaneous decisions.
180
I will help you.
181
It will rain tomorrow.
182
We will call you later.
183
So, if I decide right now, I will make tea.
184
Yes, that's a spontaneous decision.
185
And if you are guessing, you can say, I think she will pass the exam.
186
What about future continuous?
187
Future continuous is for an action in progress at a future time.
188
This time tomorrow, I will be flying.
189
At 8 p.m., we will be having dinner.
190
That sounds very specific.
191
It is.
192
You're placing yourself inside a future moment and describing what will be happening then.
193
So it's like a future background scene.
194
Exactly.
195
Now, future perfect.
196
Okay.
197
Now, future perfect.
198
Future perfect shows something that will be completed before a future deadline.
199
By Friday, she will have submitted the report.
200
By 10 p.m., I will have finished my homework.
201
So, the action is finished before the future time point.
202
Yes, the future time is your checkpoint.
203
And future perfect continuous?
204
That's the duration version.
205
Next month, we will have been living here for a year.
206
By 5 p.m., he will have been working for eight hours.
207
Wow, that one sounds advanced.
208
It does.
209
But the idea is simple.
210
How long will the action have been going on by that future moment?
211
So present perfect continuous is duration up to now,
212
and future perfect continuous is duration up to a future time.
213
Exactly.
214
Nice comparison.
215
Before we close, let's compare a few confusing pairs.
216
Present simple versus present continuous?
217
Present simple is routine or fact.
218
I work on Mondays.
219
continuous is happening now or temporary.
220
I am working today.
221
Past simple versus past continuous?
222
Past simple is finished.
223
I called her.
224
Past continuous is in progress.
225
I was calling her when she arrived.
226
Present perfect versus past simple?
227
Past simple uses a finished past time.
228
I saw him yesterday.
229
Present perfect connects to now.
230
I have seen him before.
231
Future simple versus future continuous?
232
Future simple is a decision or prediction.
233
I will call you.
234
Future continuous is an action happening at a future time.
235
I will be calling you at six.
236
Nice!
237
Any memory trick for listeners?
238
Yes.
239
Ask four questions.
240
Is it a habit?
241
Is it happening now?
242
Is it finished with a result?
243
Is it continuing for a long time?
244
Those questions guide you through most tense choices.
245
That's really helpful.
246
And I think learners should remember that mistakes are part of the process.
247
Absolutely.
248
You do not need to master all twelve tenses in one day.
249
You need practice, examples, and repetition.
250
So, let's do a tiny recap.
251
Present simple.
252
Present continuous.
253
Present perfect.
254
Present perfect continuous.
255
Past simple.
256
Past continuous.
257
Past perfect.
258
Past perfect continuous.
259
Future simple.
260
Future continuous.
261
Future perfect.
262
Future perfect continuous.
263
Twelve tenses.
264
Three time families.
265
Four forms in each family.
266
And the big message is this.
267
English tenses are not there to confuse you.
268
They are there to help you say exactly what you mean.
269
That's right right.
270
Once you see the pattern, grammar stops feeling like a wall and starts feeling like a tool.

वास्तविक जीवन की स्थिति
जब आप अंग्रेजी बोलने की कोशिश करते हैं, तो क्या आपको कई समय के रूपों के बारे में सोचते हुए उलझन होती है? जैसे कि वर्तमान, अतीत, और भविष्य? यह बिल्कुल सामान्य है। इस वीडियो में, हमें यह समझने में मदद की जाती है कि कैसे अंग्रेजी के तenses का सही उपयोग किया जाए। अगर आप यह जानना चाहते हैं कि क्या आपके द्वारा किया गया कार्य अभी हो रहा है या यह एक नियमित आदत है, तो यह जानना बहुत महत्वपूर्ण है।
उपयोगी शब्द समूह और सहवर्ती शब्द
- हर सुबह चाय पीना (I drink tea every morning)
- रविवार को फुटबॉल खेलना (My brother plays football on Saturdays)
- सुबह 7 बजे नाश्ता करना (I eat breakfast at seven)
- सूरज पूर्व से उगता है (The sun rises in the east)
- ट्रेन 8 बजे निकलती है (The train leaves at eight)
आपकी शैडोइंग चुनौती
अब, चलिए एक मजेदार चुनौती करते हैं! वीडियो में दिए गए वाक्यों को सुनें और उनका अनुसरण करें। अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग से आपका अंग्रेजी उच्चारण में सुधार होगा और आप सही समय के रूप का प्रयोग करना भी सीखेंगे। उदाहरण के लिए, जब आप सुनते हैं "I drink tea every morning," तो इस वाक्य को बार-बार बोलने की कोशिश करें। यह आपकी बोलने की गति और आत्मविश्वास को बढ़ाएगा। अपने मुंह से इस वाक्य को फिर से कहें, और देखें कि कैसे आप अपने शब्दों को सही तरीके से उच्चारित कर सकते हैं।
याद रखें, हर बार जब आप इस shadowing site का उपयोग करते हैं, तो आप अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास कर रहे हैं।
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।
