Hello, this is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English.
3
I'm Neil.
4
And I'm Beth.
5
What's up, Beth?
6
You look a little sad.
7
Well, recently I've been spending lots of time with my cat and houseplants, if you know what I mean.
8
I'm feeling a bit lonely.
9
It might help to know that you're not the only one feeling lonely.
10
Loneliness has been called the modern epidemic.
11
Although millions of us live together in towns and cities, more and more people report feeling lonely and unconnected to those they live close to.
12
Loneliness can affect anyone.
13
And while everyone's experience of loneliness is different, its effects can be serious.
14
Research has shown that loneliness puts people at greater risk of many health issues, including dementia and heart disease.
15
So how can loneliness be fixed?
16
In this programme, we'll be hearing about one project in the Netherlands aiming to do just that.
17
And as usual, we'll be learning some useful new vocabulary as well.
18
But first I have a question for you, Beth.
19
Here in the UK, an organisation called The Campaign to End Loneliness has been offering advice and support since 2011.
20
So according to the campaign, what proportion of British adults report feeling lonely at at least some of the time.
21
Is it a 29% b 39% or c 49%?
22
Erm, I would guess it's 39%.
23
OK Beth, I'll reveal the answer later in the programme.
24
Feeling lonely is not necessarily the same as being alone.
25
Some people can happily spend lots of time on their own, while others may be surrounded by people but still feel disconnected.
26
So what do we mean when we say we feel lonely?
27
Here's Myra Anubi, presenter of BBC World Service programme People Fixing the World, explaining what loneliness means to her.
28
It's that feeling when you crave people's company and you find it hard to connect, or maybe you just feel left out with no one to turn to.
29
Now, feeling lonely isn't just uncomfortable.
30
When it's experienced over time, it's been associated with health issues like a higher risk of having depression, dementia or even heart disease.
31
When we're lonely, we crave people's company.
32
We want their company a lot.
33
We might also feel left out – unhappy because we're not included in what others are doing.
34
And maybe we have no one to turn to – no one we can go to and ask for support and help.
35
Someone who suffered all these feelings was Bep de Bruun.
36
In 2013, Bep, aged 74, was found dead at her home in Rotterdam in the Netherlands.
37
Her death wasn't suspicious, but it shocked the whole country because it turned out she'd been dead for 10 years.
38
Bepp had lost contact with her only child and kept to herself in her apartment.
39
So when she died sometime in 2003, no one realised.
40
Bepp's tragic story inspired a national campaign to combat loneliness, including one project called Omar's Soup, a kitchen bringing lonely elderly people together with school children and students to make soup.
41
Omar means grandma in Dutch and the project encourages young people to spend time with their grandparents' generation.
42
Here, Claire Bates, reporter for BBC World Service programme People Fixing the World, explains how the project got started.
43
Well, it's run by two young guys called Max Cranendijk and Martin Canters.
44
And now they were concerned their grandparents' generation were becoming isolated and lonely.
45
And meanwhile, they had lots of student friends who had free time.
46
So, they thought, why not try to bring these two generations together through making soup?
47
Omar's Soup was started by Max and Martin, two local guys, or men.
48
They wanted to involve their student friends because they had lots of free time.
49
Time when they do not have to work or study and can do what they want.
50
Max and Martin found the perfect way to help elderly people who felt lonely by bringing them together with students.
51
If you bring someone together, you help people or groups to become friendly or to do something together, especially something they wouldn't usually do, like make soup.
52
Omar's soup has been a big success and has spread to other cities across the Netherlands, including Rotterdam, the hometown of Beppe de Bruyne, making her tragic death the spark for something much more hopeful.
53
I think it's time to reveal the answer to your question, Neil.
54
Right, I asked you what proportion of British adults report feeling lonely at least some of the time?
55
And I said it was 39 per cent.
56
Which was the wrong answer, I'm afraid, Beth.
57
Sadly, the correct answer is even higher – 49 per cent of adults, that's around 26 million people in the UK, making it even more important to reach out and connect with others.
58
OK, it's time to recap the vocabulary we've learned in this programme, starting with the verb crave – to have a strong wish or desire for something.
59
If you feel left out, you're unhappy because you've been excluded from something.
60
To turn to someone means to go to someone and ask them for help or support.
61
A guy is an informal way of saying a man.
62
Free time, also called leisure time, is time when you do not have to work or study and can do what you want.
63
And finally, the phrasal verb, to bring someone together, means to help people or groups become friendly or do something together, especially if they usually don't.
64
Once again, our six minutes are up.
65
But if you're feeling lonely, remember you're not alone.
66
So reach out by joining us again next time here at 6 Minute English.
67
Goodbye for now!
68
Bye!

संदर्भ और पृष्ठभूमि

इस वीडियो में, हमारे वार्ताकार नील और बेथ हमें अकेलेपन के बारे में बताते हैं जो कि आधुनिक काल का एक गंभीर मुद्दा बन चुका है। बेथ अपनी बिल्लियों और पौधों के साथ समय बिताने की बात करती हैं, जिससे यह जाहिर होता है कि वह थोड़ा अकेला महसूस कर रही हैं। अकेलापन न केवल एक भावनात्मक स्थिति है, बल्कि इससे स्वास्थ्य पर भी गंभीर प्रभाव पड़ सकते हैं, जैसे डिमेंशिया और हृदय रोग। वीडियो में एक ऐसा प्रोजेक्ट भी बताया गया है जो इस समस्या को दूर करने की कोशिश कर रहा है, जिसमें युवा और बुजुर्ग लोगों को एक साथ लाया जाता है। इस संदर्भ में संवाद करना और नए शब्दों को सीखना अत्यंत महत्वपूर्ण है।

दैनिक संवाद के लिए शीर्ष 5 वाक्यांश

  • लोनलीनेस एक आधुनिक महामारी है।
  • किसी व्यक्ति का अनुभव अकेलेपन का अलग हो सकता है।
  • जब हम अकेले होते हैं, तो हमें लोगों की संगत की तलब होती है।
  • हमारे पास किसी से मदद मांगने का विकल्प नहीं हो सकता।
  • प्रोजेक्ट ओमार के जरिए बुजुर्गों और छात्रों को एक साथ लाना।

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।
