Hello everyone and welcome back to the Everyday English podcast, where learning English is easy and fun.
2
I'm Anna.
3
And I'm Mark.
4
We're so happy you're here with us today.
5
This is the place for friendly, easy English conversations.
6
Yes, we want to help you feel confident and comfortable speaking English, even if you are just starting out.
7
So, take a deep breath, relax, and let's learn together.
8
about something i think everyone does sometimes me i do it a lot we're talking about overthinking.
9
Overthinking.
10
It's a very common thing.
11
Our hook for today is, your mind never stops, even when your body is tired.
12
Have you ever felt that, Mark?
13
Oh yes, many, many times.
14
So, what does overthinking mean?
15
It's simple.
16
It means to think too much or to worry too much about something.
17
Exactly.
18
Your thoughts are going and going and going, like a carousel.
19
It's hard to stop.
20
And today, we'll talk about why we do it, some simple English phrases to talk about it, and how we can feel better.
21
It's a very important topic for English learners, too.
22
Sometimes you might overthink before you speak English, right?
23
You worry about making a mistake.
24
Yes.
25
So let's start with some common situations.
26
Mark, can you think of a time you overthought something simple?
27
Hmm, okay.
28
A very common one.
29
Sending a text message.
30
I write a message to a friend.
31
Maybe I write, "Hi, do you want to have coffee tomorrow?" Then I look at it and I think, "Is this okay?
32
Should I say 'hello' instead of 'hi'?
33
Should I add a smiley face?
34
I look at the message for five minutes.
35
I am overthinking.
36
I do that too.
37
It's so true.
38
So, how can we say this in English?
39
What are some phrases?
40
A very easy one is, "I'm thinking about this too much." Yes, let's say that together, everyone, slowly.
41
"I'm thinking about this too much." Good.
42
Another one is, "I can't stop thinking about it." Perfect.
43
And a phrase with the word worry: I'm worrying too much about this.
44
Let's practice that.
45
I'm worrying too much about this.
46
Excellent!
47
So, let's make a little example conversation.
48
Anna, you were my friend.
49
I sent you a text message, and you didn't reply quickly.
50
I start to overthink.
51
Okay, I'll play along.
52
"Hmm.
53
I sent Anna a message two hours ago.
54
She didn't reply.
55
Is she angry with me?
56
Did I say something wrong?" "Mark, don't overthink it.
57
I was just in a meeting.
58
My phone was silent.
59
Everything is fine." Ah, good, you're right.
60
I was thinking too much.
61
Thank you, Anna.
62
See?
63
It's a very normal situation.
64
Let's talk about another one: meeting new people.
65
Oh, this is a big one.
66
You go to a party or you start a new class.
67
You see many new faces.
68
Your mind starts to go very fast.
69
What should I say?
70
Do they like me?
71
Do I look okay?
72
Yes.
73
And for English learners, it can be even bigger.
74
What if I need to speak English?
75
What if I don't understand them?
76
So many thoughts.
77
So, what are some phrases for this situation?
78
You can say to a friend, "I'm nervous about meeting new people." Or you can say about your thoughts,
79
"My mind is too busy." That's a simple and beautiful way to say it.
80
My mind is too busy.
81
I like that.
82
Let's do another short conversation.
83
Imagine we are at a small party, Anna.
84
Okay, I see you, Mark, and you look a little nervous.
85
Hi Anna.
86
There are so many people here.
87
I know.
88
It can feel a little scary, but everyone is friendly.
89
Just be yourself.
90
Thank you.
91
I think my mind is just too busy.
92
I'm nervous about saying the wrong thing.
93
You're doing great.
94
Let's go talk to Tom.
95
He's very nice.
96
Okay.
97
That sounds good.
98
See?
99
A little conversation can help so much.
100
Now let's talk about the most important situation for our listeners.
101
Speaking English?
102
Yes!
103
Many English learners overthink before they even open their mouth.
104
They think, "My grammar is bad.
105
My pronunciation is not perfect.
106
I will make a mistake." But the secret is everyone makes mistakes, even native speakers.
107
The most important thing is to try, Communication is the goal, not perfection.
108
Absolutely.
109
So, what do you think in your head when you have to speak English?
110
Maybe, what if I make a mistake?
111
Or, I don't know the right words.
112
Those are very common thoughts.
113
But here is a new positive phrase to think.
114
Repeat after me.
115
It's okay to make mistakes.
116
Let's say one more.
117
I am learning.
118
It's okay.
119
Beautiful!
120
Let's make a small example.
121
Mark, you are in a coffee shop and you want to order a coffee in English.
122
Okay.
123
I want a coffee with milk.
124
Do I say a coffee with milk or.
125
A white coffee?
126
What is the right word?
127
My heart is beating fast.
128
Hello?
129
What can I get for you today?
130
Hello?
131
One coffee with milk, please. Of course.
132
Anything else?
133
No, thank you.
134
See?
135
It was easy.
136
I overthought for nothing.
137
The phrase "coffee with milk" was perfect.
138
And even if you said "white coffee," the barista would understand you.
139
The goal is to communicate.
140
You did it.
141
situations, sending messages, meeting people, and speaking English.
142
Now what can we do?
143
How can we stop overthinking?
144
It's not easy, but there are some simple tricks.
145
Yes, the first one is very, very simple.
146
Are you ready?
147
I'm ready.
148
Breathe.
149
Just breathe.
150
When you feel your mind is too busy, stop for a moment.
151
Close your eyes if you can, and take one deep, Slow breath.
152
Try it with me everyone.
153
A deep breath in. and slowly out.
154
Wow, I already feel a little better.
155
It's so simple, but it really works.
156
It tells your body to relax.
157
It does.
158
The second tip is to break down a big thing into small things.
159
For example, speaking English for one hour can feel very, very big.
160
It's scary.
161
But saying hello to one person is small.
162
It's easy.
163
So don't think, "I need to speak perfect English for one hour." Just think, "I will say hello and how are you?" to my colleague.
164
One small step.
165
perfect example.
166
A big party is scary, but talking to one person for two minutes is not so scary.
167
Break it down.
168
And our third tip: Talk to someone.
169
Tell a friend, hey, I'm overthinking this.
170
Saying it out loud can make the worry feel smaller.
171
Yes, you can say, "I'm worrying about this.
172
Can I talk to you?" It's a very powerful phrase.
173
Now let's talk about some common mistakes, but not English mistakes.
174
Common mistakes we make when we overthink.
175
The biggest mistake is we think about the worst possible situation.
176
This is called catastrophizing.
177
That's a big word, but the idea is simple.
178
For example, I made a small grammar mistake.
179
Oh no, now this person will think I am not smart, they will not want to be my friend, I will be alone forever.
180
Mark, that is a very big story from one small mistake.
181
The truth is, the other person probably didn't even notice your small mistake, or they forgot about it two seconds later.
182
Exactly.
183
So, when you notice you are imagining a big disaster, stop.
184
Ask yourself, is this probably true or am I overthinking?
185
Another common mistake is waiting for the perfect moment.
186
I will speak English when my grammar is perfect.
187
Or I will send that email when I find the perfect words.
188
Done is better than perfect.
189
I love that.
190
Done is better than perfect.
191
Let's all remember that.
192
Ok everyone, it's practice and recap time.
193
Let's go over the key phrases we learned today for talking about overthinking.
194
We'll say each phrase slowly.
195
Please repeat after us.
196
It's great speaking practice.
197
First phrase: I'm thinking about this too much.
198

199

200

201
Next, I can't stop thinking about it.
202

203
Wonderful!
204

206
I'm worrying too much about this perfect how about this feeling I'm nervous about meeting new people
207
I'm nervous about meeting new people.
208

संदर्भ और पृष्ठभूमि
आज के एपिसोड़ में, हम एक बहुत ही सामान्य समस्या के बारे में बात कर रहे हैं - overthinking, यानी बहुत अधिक सोचने की आदत। अक्सर, जब हम कोई नया संवाद प्रारंभ करते हैं, खासकर अंग्रेजी में, तो हम बहुत अधिक सोचने लगते हैं। जैसे कि, क्या मेरा संदेश सही है? क्या मैं सही शब्द का उपयोग कर रहा हूँ? ऐसे कई प्रश्न हमारे मन में आते हैं। इस दिशा में, इंग्लिश बोलने का अभ्यास करते समय, यह ज़रूरी है कि हम अपनी सोच को नियंत्रित करें और आत्म-विश्वास के साथ संवाद करें। इस आज के पॉडकास्ट में, अन्ना और मार्क कई सामान्य अनुभव साझा करते हैं, जिससे आप खुद को बेहतर महसूस कर सकें।
दैनिक संचार के लिए शीर्ष 5 वाक्यांश
- I'm thinking about this too much. (मैं इसके बारे में बहुत अधिक सोच रहा हूँ।)
- I can't stop thinking about it. (मैं इसके बारे में सोचने से रुक नहीं सकता।)
- I'm worrying too much about this. (मैं इस बारे में बहुत अधिक चिंता कर रहा हूँ।)
- Is this okay? (क्या यह ठीक है?)
- Should I add a smiley face? (क्या मुझे एक स्माइली चिह्न जोड़ना चाहिए?)
इन वाक्यांशों का उपयोग कर के आप अपने दैनिक संवाद को और अधिक प्रभावी बना सकते हैं। जब आप सोचते हैं कि कोई वाक्यांश आपका संवाद प्रभावित कर सकता है, तो उसे सहजता से उपयोग करें।
चरण-दर-चरण शैडोइंग गाइड
इस वीडियो में चर्चा किए गए विषयों पर ध्यान केंद्रित करते हुए, आपको अपनी अंग्रेजी बोलने की आदतों में सुधार करने की आवश्यकता है। यहाँ पर कुछ सुझाव दिए गए हैं:
- पहले वीडियो को ध्यान से सुनें और समझें कि speakers कैसे संवाद करते हैं।
- फिर, उनके वाक्यांशों को दोहराने का प्रयास करें। अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग प्रक्रिया में यह महत्वपूर्ण है।
- हर बार जब आप कोई वाक्यांश सुनें, उसे उसके साथ दोहराएँ, यह shadow speech में मदद करेगा।
- आपको मिरर के सामने खड़े होकर बोलने का अभ्यास करना चाहिए, जिससे आपके आत्म-विश्वास में वृद्धि होगी।
- अंत में, नियमित रूप से इस प्रकार के अभ्यास करें। जब आप अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करते हैं, तो आपका shadowspeaks में कौशल विकसित होगा।
आपका प्रयास और नियमित shadowing site का उपयोग आपको और अधिक धाराप्रवाह बनाने में मदद करेगा।
इस वीडियो का व्याकरण
वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:
| संरचना | वीडियो में |
|---|---|
| शर्त वाले वाक्य if + उपवाक्य, will/would + क्रिया — शर्त और उसका नतीजा | if you're on YouTube, we would love |
| क्रिया + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — वे क्रियाएँ जिनके बाद -ing रूप आता है | stop thinking · stop overthinking · Keep practicing |
| “should” से सलाह should + क्रिया — बताना कि क्या करना अच्छा है | Should I say · Should I add |
| Superlatives the -est / the most … — समूह में सबसे ऊपर या नीचे | the most important · The biggest |
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।
