Hello everyone, and welcome back to Everyday English Academy,
2
where we make English simple and enjoyable.
3
I'm Sarah.
4
And I'm Mike.
5
Hello to all of our wonderful listeners wherever you are in the world right now.
6
So, Mike, I heard you're going on a trip soon?
7
Yes, I'm going to Spain next month.
8
I'm so excited.
9
Oh, that's amazing!
10
So you must be a pretty good traveller, right? Of course.
11
I'm a great traveller.
12
I know exactly what to do at the airport, on the plane, everything.
13
Oh, really?
14
Okay, let me test you then.
15
Test me?
16
Okay, sure, go ahead.
17
What's a boarding pass?
18
Easy.
19
It's the thing you need to get on the plane,
20
like a ticket with your seat number.
21
Okay, good.
22
What about… what does aisle seat mean?
23
Aisle seat.
24
That's… it's the seat next to the… Next to the… Window?
25
Wrong!
26
Wait, no, I knew that!
27
Sure you did.
28
Mr. Great Traveler doesn't know what an aisle seat is.
29
Okay, okay.
30
Maybe I need a little help.
31
And that is exactly why we're here today.
32
Because traveling can be stressful,
33
especially if you don't know the right English words.
34
That's true.
35
Even if your English is good,
36
airports have their own language.
37
They really do!
38
So today, we're going to walk you through the whole travel experience,
39
from packing your bag at home to arriving in a new country.
40
And we'll teach you the most important words and phrases you need – real,
41
practical English that you can use on your next trip.
42
So, listeners, have you ever been confused at an airport?
43
Maybe you didn't understand something? and you just smiled and said yes?
44
Oh no, don't look at me like that.
45
I'm not saying anything.
46
But if that's happened to you,
47
tell us in the comments.
48
We want to hear your airport stories.
49
Yes, and stay with us because we'll teach you one phrase later that can save you in almost any airport situation.
50
But more about that later.
51
Okay, let's start at the very beginning,
52
before you even leave your house.
53
The first step is packing.
54
Oh, packing.
55
I am terrible at packing.
56
Really?
57
Why?
58
Because I always pack too much.
59
I bring clothes for every possible situation.
60
Rain, I have a jacket.
61
Beach, I have shorts.
62
Fancy dinner, I have a nice shirt.
63
My suitcase is always full.
64
That's called overpacking, when you pack more things than you actually need.
65
Yes, I overpack every time. Do you?
66
No, I'm actually the opposite.
67
I pack very little, and then I arrive and think,
68
why didn't I bring a warmer jacket? So you underpack.
69
Exactly.
70
But, okay, what do you need before a trip?
71
The most important thing.
72
Your passport.
73
Without your passport, you're not going anywhere.
74
Yes.
75
A passport is the small book with your photo and personal information.
76
You need it to travel to another country.
77
And please, please check your passport before your trip.
78
Make sure it's not expired.
79
Expired means it's too old and not valid anymore.
80
If your passport is expired, you can't fly.
81
And that is a very bad day.
82
The worst day.
83
Okay, so you have your passport.
84
What else?
85
Your boarding pass.
86
And this is what I asked you about before.
87
Yes, yes.
88
A boarding pass is the document that lets you get on the plane.
89
It has your name, your flight number,
90
your seat number, and your gate number.
91
See?
92
You do know it.
93
And today, most people have a digital boarding pass on their phone,
94
but some people still print it on paper.
95
I always have both, phone and paper, just in case.
96
Smart.
97
Okay, you also need your luggage.
98
Your luggage is all of your bags together.
99
Your big suitcase, your small bag, everything.
100
And here's an important word, carry-on.
101
Yes.
102
A carry-on is the small bag you take with you on the plane.
103
It goes in the compartment above your seat or under the seat in front of you.
104
So you don't check it in.
105
You carry it on the plane yourself.
106
That's why it's called a carry-on.
107
And your big suitcase?
108
That one you check in.
109
You give it to the airline at the airport and they put it under the plane.
110
Which brings us to the airport.
111
You arrive and the first thing you need to do is check-in.
112
Right.
113
To check in means to register for your flight.
114
You show your passport, you give them your big suitcase,
115
and they give you your boarding pass.
116
You can do this at the check-in counter.
117
That's the desk where airline staff help you.
118
Or you can use a self-service machine.
119
And this is where they ask you the famous question… Window seat or aisle seat?
120
So now do you know the difference?
121
Yes.
122
A window seat is next to the window.
123
You can look outside and see the clouds.
124
And an aisle seat is next to the aisle,
125
the walkway in the middle of the plane where people walk.
126
The aisle.
127
A-I-S-L-E.
128
It looks weird, but you say it like aisle.
129
The S is silent.
130
Good point.
131
The pronunciation is tricky.
132
And listeners, which do you prefer, window or aisle?
133
Tell us in the comments.
134
I'm team window, by the way.
135
And I'm team aisle.
136
I like to stretch my legs.
137
Okay, so you checked in,
138
you have your boarding pass, now security.
139
Security is the part most people find stressful.
140
It can be, but it's not so bad if you know what to expect.
141
At security, you need to put your bags on a machine,
142
like a big scanner.
143
They check what's inside.
144
And you usually need to take out your laptop,
145
your liquids, and sometimes take off your belt and shoes.
146
Liquids are things like water,
147
shampoo, perfume, anything that is a liquid.
148
And they have to be in small bottles,
149
usually 100 milliliters or less.
150
After security, you need to find your gate.
151
And a gate is not a door to your house.
152
No. At the airport, a gate is the area where you wait for your flight and then board the plane.
153
To board means to get on the plane.
154
So when they say, now boarding at gate 15,
155
it means go to gate 15 and get on the plane.
156
Your gate number is on your boarding pass,
157
and there are screens everywhere in the airport that show the gate information.
158
And sometimes your gate changes,
159
so always check the screens.
160
Yes, that happened to me once.
161
I was sitting at gate 12,
162
relaxed, drinking coffee, and my flight moved to gate 35,
163
on the other side of the airport.
164
Oh no!
165
Did you make it?
166
I did, but I was running with my coffee.
167
Not fun.
168
Now, sometimes you look at the screen and you see a word that nobody wants to see.
169
Delayed.
170
Delayed.
171
When your flight is delayed, it means it's late.
172
It's not leaving at the planned time.
173
You might hear, we're sorry,
174
your flight has been delayed by two hours.
175
And then you just wait. And wait. And wait.
176
It's not great, but it happens.
177
And here's another word, layover.
178
Oh, that's a good one.
179
A layover is when your journey has a stop in the middle.
180
So for example, you fly from Tokyo to London,
181
but you stop in Dubai for three hours.
182
Those three hours in Dubai, that's your layover.
183
You wait at the airport and then take your next flight.
184
Some people love long layovers because they can explore the airport,
185
eat, shop… And some people hate them because you're stuck in an airport.
186
True.
187
OK, let's get on the plane.
188
You find your seat, sit down, and then what?
189
Well, the flight attendants will help you.
190
Flight attendants are the people who work on the plane.
191
They help passengers, serve food and drinks, and explain safety information.
192
And there are some useful phrases for the plane.
193
If you need something, you can say,
194
Excuse me, could I have some water, please?
195
Simple and polite.
196
Or if you need to get past someone,
197
Excuse me, can I get through?
198
That means you want to pass them in the aisle.
199
And if you don't understand something,
200
here's that phrase I promised,
201
the one that can save you anywhere.
202
Oh yes, what is it?
203
Sorry, could you say that again, please?
204
That's it?
205
Yes, it's simple, polite, and it works everywhere.
206
At the check-in counter, at security,
207
on the plane, at immigration.
208
If you don't understand, just say,
209
Sorry, could you say that again, please?
210
You know what?
211
You're right.
212
That is the most useful phrase for any traveler.
213
Nobody will be angry.
214
People want to help.
215
You just need to ask.
216
Okay, so the plane lands.
217
You arrived.
218
Now what?
219
First, you go through immigration.
220
Immigration is the control area where officers check your passport and ask why you're visiting.
221
They might ask, what is the purpose of your visit?
222
And you can say, I'm here on vacation or I'm here for business.
223
Keep it simple and honest.
224
Don't be nervous.
225
It's usually very quick.
226
And sometimes they ask, how long are you staying?
227
You just say five days or two weeks.
228
Easy.
229
After immigration, you go to baggage claim.
230
That's the area where you pick up your big suitcase from the moving belt.
231
The moving belt.
232
That long thing that goes around and around with everyone's bags on it.
233
And you stand there watching bags go by thinking, is that mine?
234
No. Is that mine?
235
No. And then you see yours and you feel so happy!
236
After baggage claim, you might go through customs.
237
Customs is where they check if you're bringing anything into the country that isn't allowed.
238
Usually, if you have nothing special to declare,
239
you just walk through the green channel.
240
Easy.
241
And then, you're out!
242
You're in a new country!
243
Congratulations!
244
The adventure begins.
245
Now you just need to figure out how to get to your hotel,
246
taxi, bus, or train.
247
But that's a story for another episode.
248
Maybe.
249
Okay, let's do a quick review.
250
We learned so many useful words today.
251
We did.
252
Boarding pass, your ticket to get on the plane.
253
Check-in to register for your flight.
254
carry-on, your small bag for the plane,
255
gate, where you wait and board,
256
delayed, when your flight is late,
257
layover, a stop between flights,
258
baggage claim, where you pick up your suitcase,
259
window seat and aisle seat,
260
seats by the window or by the walkway,
261
immigration and customs, the controls when you enter a country,
262
and the best phrase, Sorry,
263
could you say that again, please?
264
Use it everywhere.
265
It's your travel superpower.
266
Alright, everyone, we want to hear from you.
267
What's your best or funniest travel story?
268
Write it in the comments in English.
269
Even one or two sentences is great practice.
270
Like, I missed my flight once because I was at the wrong gate.
271
like that.

संदर्भ और पृष्ठभूमि
यात्रा करना अक्सर तनावपूर्ण हो सकता है, खासकर जब आप एयरपोर्ट पर होते हैं और आपको सही अंग्रेजी शब्दों का ज्ञान नहीं होता। इस वीडियो में, सारा और माइक एयरपोर्ट पर यात्रा के अनुभवों के बारे में चर्चा कर रहे हैं। माइक ने अपनी यात्रा की योजना के बारे में बताया, और दोनों ने एयरपोर्ट शब्दावली के महत्वपूर्ण पहलुओं पर ध्यान केंद्रित किया। यदि आप कभी एयरपोर्ट पर भ्रमित हुए हैं या किसी स्थिति को समझने में असमर्थ महसूस किया है, तो आप अकेले नहीं हैं। इस सत्र में, हम आपको अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करने हेतु आवश्यक शब्द और वाक्य सिखाएंगे।
दैनिक संचार के लिए शीर्ष 5 वाक्यांश
- Boarding pass: यह वह चीज है जिसे आपको प्लेन में चढ़ने के लिए चाहिए, जैसे आपकी सीट संख्या के साथ एक टिकट।
- Aisle seat: यह वह सीट होती है जो गलियारे के पास होती है।
- Window seat: यह वह सीट होती है जो खिड़की के पास स्थित होती है।
- Check-in: यह प्रक्रिया होती है जिसमें आप अपने सामान को एयरलाइन को सौंपते हैं और अपनी बोर्डिंग पास प्राप्त करते हैं।
- Gate: यह वह स्थान होता है जहां से आप विमान में चढ़ते हैं।
स्टेप-बाय-स्टेप शैडोइंग गाइड
यदि आप इस वीडियो से कठिनाईयाँ महसूस कर रहे हैं तो चिंता न करें। यहाँ अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग के माध्यम से आपके अभ्यास के लिए कुछ सुझाव दिए जा रहे हैं:
- वीडियो को ध्यान से देखें और सुनें। पहले माइक और सारा के बोलने के अंदाज को समझें।
- जिस वाक्यांश या शब्द को आप सीखना चाहते हैं उसे बार-बार सुनें।
- एक बार जब आप सुन लें, तो उसे दोहराएं। आप shadow speech तकनीक का उपयोग कर सकते हैं, जिसमें आप बोलने वाले के साथ-साथ बोलते हैं।
- समय के साथ, अपने बोलने की गति को बढ़ाएं। यह आपके आत्मविश्वास को बढ़ाने में मदद करेगा।
- यूट्यूब से अंग्रेजी सीखें और अंकित वाक्यांशों का अभ्यास करें।
इस तरह से आप अपनी अंग्रेजी सुधार सकते हैं और यात्रा करते समय आत्मविश्वास के साथ संवाद कर सकते हैं। नियमित अभ्यास के साथ, आप एयरपोर्ट और अन्य जगहों पर सहजता से अपनी बात रख पाएंगे।
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।
☕ हमें एक कॉफी पिलाएं
आपके समर्थन के कारण ShadowingEnglish 100% मुफ्त है। सर्वर और AI की लागत अधिक है — आपकी कॉफी हमें आगे बढ़ने में मदद करती है! 🙏
