you Hello everyone.
2
Welcome back to Everyday English Talk.
3
I am Ben.
4
And I am Anna.
5
We are so happy to be with you again for another episode to help you improve your English.
6
Today, we are talking about a topic that is very close to our daily lives.
7
We are talking about clothes.
8
More specifically, we are talking about how we choose what to wear every morning.
9
For some people, it is a very quick choice, but for others, it can be a bit of a struggle.
10
Should I wear this?
11
Or should I wear that?
12
Exactly, Ben.
13
What we wear can change how we feel and how other people see us.
14
It is a great topic to learn useful phrases for daily conversation.
15
We will talk about checking the weather, dressing for work, and how planning ahead can save you a lot of stress.
16
Stay with us until the end of the episode because we have a special listener challenge to help you practice.
17
And as always, you can download the free PDF transcript and vocabulary exercises on our website to follow along.
18
Let's jump into our first conversation.
19
Ben, you look very comfortable today.
20
I really like that blue sweater you are wearing.
21
Is it new?
22
Thank you, Anna.
23
Yes, it is quite new.
24
I bought it last week.
25
I chose it this morning because I noticed it is quite cold outside today.
26
In fact, it is much colder than yesterday.
27
That is true.
28
I felt the cold air as soon as I opened my window this morning.
29
I saw the sun shining early, so for a moment, I thought it might be a warm day.
30
But I knew I had to check the weather app on my phone first.
31
Do you do that too?
32
Oh, absolutely.
33
I check the weather app every single morning as soon as I wake up.
34
It is the very first thing I do while I am still in bed.
35
I look at the temperature and see if there is any chance of rain.
36
If I don't check it, I feel like I am not ready for the day.
37
I agree.
38
Checking the forecast is so important.
39
If I don't check the weather, I might wear the wrong clothes and feel miserable all day.
40
One time, last year, I looked out the window and saw no clouds.
41
I decided to wear my favorite sandals and a light dress.
42
But then, it rained all afternoon.
43
My feet were soaking wet, and I felt so cold and uncomfortable.
44
Oh no, that sounds like a terrible experience.
45
To avoid situations like that, I always try to dress in layers.
46
It is my favorite way to dress, especially in the spring or autumn, when the temperature changes a lot between the morning and the afternoon.
47
Dress in layers.
48
That is an interesting phrase.
49
For our listeners who are beginners, can you explain exactly what that means, Ben? Of course,
50
dressing in layers means you wear several pieces of clothing on top of each other instead of just one thick coat.
51
For example, today I am wearing a light cotton t -shirt.
52
Over that, I have this blue wool sweater.
53
And because it was very windy this morning, I also put on a light jacket before I left the house.
54
Ah, I see.
55
So if you get too warm when you are walking or when you are inside the office, you can just take off the jacket or the sweater.
56
It is very flexible.
57
Exactly.
58
It gives me choices.
59
If the sun comes out and the temperature goes up to 20 degrees, I can just take off my sweater and wear my t -shirt.
60
It helps me stay warm in the morning and stay cool in the afternoon.
61
That is a very smart and practical idea.
62
When I pick out my clothes, I also think a lot about comfort.
63
I don't like clothes that are too tight or made of materials that make my skin feel itchy.
64
I love soft cotton or silk.
65
If I don't feel comfortable in my clothes, I cannot focus on my work.
66
I feel the same way.
67
Comfort is everything.
68
If my shoes are too tight or if my jeans are too small, I spend the whole day thinking about my clothes instead of my tasks.
69
It really ruins my mood and my productivity.
70
I understand completely.
71
That is why today, I put on my favorite sneakers.
72
I knew I had to walk a lot between different meeting rooms and even walk to the bank during my lunch break.
73
Choosing the right shoes is just as important as choosing the right shirt.
74
You are right.
75
It is always better to wear something suitable for your plan.
76
If you are going to the park, wear sneakers.
77
If you are going to a fancy dinner, maybe wear something more formal.
78
So Ben, does it take you a long time to decide what to wear after you check the weather app?
79
Not really.
80
Because I use the app, the decision is easy.
81
If the app says it is 15 degrees, I already have a 15 degree outfit ready in my mind.
82
It's usually a long -sleeved shirt and a light coat.
83
It saves me from a lot of stress in the morning.
84
You are very organized.
85
I sometimes look at the sky and try to guess the temperature, but the clouds can be lying.
86
Using an app is much more reliable.
87
It really helps you feel prepared for whatever happens during the day.
88
Let's learn some new words.
89
Okay, that sounds good.
90
First, check the weather.
91
It means to look at the forecast to see if it is sunny, rainy, or cold.
92
Always check the weather before you go on a picnic.
93
Second, dress in layers.
94
It means to wear several pieces of clothing on top of each other.
95
Example.
96
In winter, it is smart to dress in layers to stay warm.
97
Third, put on.
98
It means to place a piece of clothing on your body.
99
Please put on your coat.
100
It is very cold outside today.
101
Fourth, pick out.
102
It means to choose something from a group.
103
I need to pick out a nice dress for my friend's wedding.
104
Fifth, suitable for.
105
It means right or correct for a particular situation.
106
Example: These heavy boots are not suitable for running.
107
So listeners, how about you?
108
Do you have the habit of checking the weather app before you pick out your clothes for the day?
109
We would love to know.
110
Tell us in the comments if you use an app, or if you just look out the window to guess the temperature.
111
you Anna, I have a question for you.
112
Do you ever stand in front of your wardrobe and feel like you have absolutely nothing to wear, even when your wardrobe is full of clothes?
113
Oh, Ben, I feel like that almost every day.
114
It is a very common problem, I think.
115
Many people feel this way.
116
especially on Monday mornings when I have to go to the office after a long, relaxing weekend.
117
Why do you think it is so much harder to choose clothes for work than for the weekend?
118
Well, for me, it is because I want to dress for success.
119
When I am at work, I want my boss and my colleagues to see me as a professional person.
120
I want to look serious and good at my job.
121
But at the same time, I sit at a desk for eight hours, so I also really want to feel comfortable.
122
That is a difficult balance to find.
123
Looking professional but feeling relaxed is a challenge for everyone.
124
My office is a bit different from yours.
125
I think.
126
We follow a smart casual style.
127
Smart casual is a very popular term these days, but sometimes it is a bit confusing for people.
128
Does it mean you can wear jeans to the office?
129
Yes, in my office, smart casual means I can wear dark blue jeans, but they must be clean and have no holes.
130
I usually combine them with a nice button -down shirt.
131
I don't have to wear a full suit or a tie.
132
No tie is needed unless we have a very big meeting with the director or a new client.
133
That sounds like a perfect middle ground.
134
I think when we look good, we actually work better.
135
It gives us a little boost of confidence.
136
When I wear an outfit I like, I feel more ready to speak in meetings and share my ideas.
137
I agree 100%.
138
When I wear a clean, freshly ironed shirt, I feel like I am in work mode.
139
I feel like I can handle any difficult problem or any long meeting.
140
It's almost like a uniform for my brain to start working.
141
Does your boss ever say anything about what the employees wear?
142
Does he care about the dress code?
143
Yes, he sometimes mentions it in our team meetings.
144
He thinks we should always look professional because we meet clients every week.
145
He says that when a client looks at us, they are looking at the company.
146
We represent the brand.
147
If we look messy or tired, the company looks messy.
148
That makes perfect sense.
149
First impressions are very important in business.
150
Because of that, I usually try to wear colors that are professional.
151
I don't like to wear colors that stand out too much at work.
152
I usually stick to navy blue, gray, black, and white.
153
Those are very safe and classic colors.
154
The best thing about those colors is that they match with almost everything.
155
You don't have to spend a lot of time thinking if your pants match your shirt or your jacket.
156
Exactly.
157
It makes it so much easier to match my bag and my shoes, too.
158
I don't want to spend my morning worrying if my green shoes look okay with a purple skirt.
159
That would take too much energy.
160
That would definitely stand out.
161
People would look at you all day.
162
Sometimes I see people in the city wearing very bright neon colors like pink or bright green.
163
It looks cool on the street.
164
But maybe not in a serious business meeting.
165
I agree.
166
I think it's nice to show your personality through your clothes, but at the office, I prefer to keep it simple and elegant.
167
I save my bright colors, like my favorite red dress or my yellow sun hat, for the weekend.
168
That is a very good rule to follow.
169
Work clothes should be neat, simple, and clean.
170
It shows you respect your job, your workplace, and the people you work with.
171
Do you have one favorite outfit that you wear when you have a really important presentation to give?
172
Yes, I have a dark gray blazer.
173
Even if I am wearing a simple white t -shirt underneath, the blazer makes me look sharp and professional immediately.
174
It's my power outfit.
175
I always feel ready when I wear it.
176
A blazer is such a useful piece of clothing for everyone.
177
It can change a casual look into a professional look in just two seconds.
178
I think every beginner learner should learn that word "blazer." Can we practice some common phrases?
179
Yes, let's do it.
180
First, dress for success.
181
It means to wear clothes that make you look professional and confident.
182
Example.
183
I always dress for success when I have a job interview.
184
Second, smart casual.
185
It means a style of clothing that is neat and professional but not very formal.
186
The company party is smart casual, so you can wear jeans and a nice shirt.
187
Third, look professional.
188
It means to appear like someone who is serious and good at their job.
189
You should look professional when you meet a new client.
190
Fourth, stand out.
191
It means to be very easy to see or notice because you are different.
192
Example.
193
If you wear a bright red suit, you will really stand out in the office.
194
Fifth, feel comfortable.
195
It means to feel relaxed and pleasant in your clothes.
196
I feel comfortable when I wear my old cotton t -shirt.
197
So listeners, now we want to hear from you.
198
What kind of clothes are you required to wear at your workplace or your school?
199
Share your answer with us.
200
Is your dress code very formal with suits and ties, or is it more smart casual like my office?
201
you Ben, I have a little secret to share with you today.
202
I am much, much faster at getting ready in the morning than I was last year.
203
I used to be very slow, but not anymore.
204
Really?
205
I am surprised.
206
You used to tell me you were always late.
207
What is your secret?
208
Did you stop drinking coffee in the morning to save time?
209
Or did you cut your hair shorter?
210
No, no. I still love my morning coffee.
211
I can't live without it and my hair is the same length.
212
The big change is that I started to plan ahead.
213
Now, I always choose my clothes the night before.
214
I never wait until the morning to decide.
215
That is a fantastic habit, Anna.
216
I actually started doing the exact same thing a few months ago.
217
It really helps me save time and stay calm during the early hours.
218
It really does.
219
Before I started this habit, I would stand in front of my closet for 20 minutes every single morning.
220
I would try on one shirt, then take it off.
221
Then try on a dress and take it off because I didn't like the color.
222
I was always stressed and I was often late for my bus.
223
I know that feeling very well.
224
It is a terrible way to start the day.
225
Now, my routine is different.
226
Before I brush my teeth at night, I pick out my clothes for the next day.
227
I check them to see if there are any stains or if a button is missing.
228
I even check if the socks are a matching pair.
229
That is so important.
230
Checking for small problems at night avoids big problems in the morning.
231
And do you iron them at night, too?
232
Yes, I do.
233
I iron my shirt and my trousers while I listen to a podcast or some relaxing music.
234
Ironing at night is very smart.
235
There is nothing worse than being ready to leave the house and then finding a huge wrinkle in your shirt.
236
If you are in a rush, you don't have time to fix it.
237
I agree.
238
Finding a wrinkle when you have only five minutes left is a nightmare.
239
You end up feeling messy and self -conscious all day.
240
You are so organized, Ben.
241
Planning ahead also helps me sleep better.
242
I don't have to lie in bed worrying about what I will wear for my meeting the next day.
243
I feel the same way.
244
My brain feels quieter when I know my clothes are ready.
245
My mornings are much more peaceful now.
246
Because I don't waste time choosing clothes, I actually have time to sit down
247
and eat a real breakfast instead of just grabbing a piece of bread and running out the door.
248
That's a big health benefit too.
249
A calm breakfast is so good for your day.
250
Some of my friends are even more extreme.
251
They plan all their clothes for the whole week on Sunday evening.
252
They have five outfits ready for Monday to Friday.
253
Have you ever tried that?
254
I thought about it, but I think it is a bit difficult for me.
255
What if the weather changes?
256
What if it is sunny on Monday, but suddenly rains on Wednesday?
257
Your plan for Wednesday might not work anymore.
258
You might need a raincoat instead of a light jacket.
259
That is a very good point.
260
That is why I think the night before plan is the best.
261
You can check the latest weather report on your phone and then decide.
262
It's the perfect balance of planning and being flexible.
263
How do you store the clothes you have picked out?
264
Do you just leave them on a chair?
265
Or do you put them back in the closet?
266
No, I have a special hook on the back of my bedroom door.
267
I hang the whole outfit there.
268
The shirt, the pants, and even my scarf.
269
It makes me feel like I am ready to go as soon as I open my eyes.
270
It is very satisfying.
271
It's like being a superhero, preparing your costume for the next mission.
272
It makes the morning feel like a small victory before you even leave the house.
273
Exactly.
274
It reduces so much stress.
275
And the best part is, you never have to run out the door with mismatched socks because you were in a hurry and it was dark.
276
that has actually happened to me before.
277
I once wore one black sock and one dark blue sock to a very important meeting.
278
I spent the whole meeting trying to hide my feet under the table.
279
I hoped nobody would notice.
280
Oh no. See?
281
That is why we should always plan ahead.

पहली छापें

इस वीडियो में, कपड़ों के चुनाव पर चर्चा की गई है, जो हमारे दैनिक जीवन का एक महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा है। जब हम हर सुबह उठते हैं, तो हमें यह तय करना होता है कि हमें क्या पहनना है। यह एक साधारण विषय है, लेकिन इसे समझना और इस पर बात करना बहुत सहायक हो सकता है, खासकर जब हम अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास कर रहे हों। इस वीडियो में, बेन और अन्ना ने न केवल कपड़ों के बारे में बात की है, बल्कि उन्होंने दैनिक वार्तालाप में उपयोगी वाक्यांशों को भी शामिल किया है। इससे आप अंग्रेजी बोलने में आत्मविश्वास प्राप्त कर सकते हैं।

इसका विश्लेषण करें

वीडियो में कुछ वाक्य बहुत स्वाभाविक लगते हैं। उदाहरण के लिए:

  • “क्या मैं यह पहनूं? या क्या मैं वह पहनूं?” - यह प्रश्न पूछने का तरीका बहुत सामान्य है। ऐसा लगता है कि बेन और अन्ना बातचीत कर रहे हैं, जिससे यह संवाद अधिक जीवंत और वास्तविक लगता है।
  • “मैं हमेशा परतों में कपड़े पहनने की कोशिश करता हूँ।” - यह वाक्य सरल है लेकिन बहुत प्रभावी है। “परतों में कपड़े पहनना” एक उपयोगी वाक्यांश है, जो मौसम के अनुसार कपड़े चुनने में मदद करता है।
  • “मैं अपने फोन पर मौसम की जानकारी देखता हूँ।” - यहां, दैनिक जीवन की एक सरल क्रिया को साझा किया गया है, जिससे श्रोता खुद को संबंधित महसूस कर सकते हैं।

इन वाक्यों का उपयोग करके, आप अपने वार्तालाप कौशल को बेहतर बना सकते हैं।

प्रैक्टिस रूटीन

इस वीडियो से सीखने का एक अच्छा तरीका है कि आप इसे सुनें और फिर अभ्यास करें। यहाँ एक सरल अभ्यास है:

  • वीडियो को चलाते समय, सभी वाक्यों को ध्यान से सुनें।
  • फिर, इन वाक्यों को जोर से बोलें और रिकॉर्ड करें।
  • अपनी आवाज़ को सुनकर, देखें कि क्या आप अपनी उच्चारण और प्रवाह में सुधार कर सकते हैं।
  • हर दिन थोड़ा समय निकालें और इस प्रक्रिया को दोहराएं।

याद रखें, नियमित अभ्यास से ही आप अंग्रेजी बोलने में और अधिक प्रभावी हो सकते हैं। यूट्यूब से अंग्रेजी सीखें और अपने बोलने के कौशल को विकसित करें। इस प्रकार के वीडियो आपकी मदद करने के लिए एक उत्कृष्ट संसाधन हैं। इसलिए, shadowspeaks और shadow speak जैसी तकनीकों का उपयोग करें और अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करें।

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।
