ESO, translated by — Hello, come in please.

Thank you very much.

All right, may I have your full name?

My name is Sogol Bakhtiari.

All right, thanks Sogol.

Can I take a look at your passport?

Of course, here you are.

All right Sogol, do you like shopping and why?

I think I do like shopping quite a lot.

Some people might call me a shopaholic.

I think most women are like me.

We tend to buy impulsively.

We're impulsive buyers.

This means that sometimes we buy things that we really don't need, but we enjoy doing that.

All right, thanks.

What time do you do the shopping?

Well, as I work from eight o'clock till five o'clock in the afternoon,

I tend to do my shopping on the way back home or during the weekends.

If I need something urgently, I might even take my lunch break

and quickly go to the place I need to go and buy the thing I need.

Okay, so, well, do you ever shop on the internet?

I don't think I would like to.

I never have and for me shopping needs to be a personal experience.

I like to see what I am choosing and about to buy.

Seeing a photograph I don't think does the same thing.

It's not the same experience.

Thanks.

Let's move on to the topic of clothing.

What type of clothes do you like to wear?

I like comfortable clothes.

something that's easy to be in for the whole day.

Okay, and what kind of clothes do people in your country usually wear?

Well, that depends on their age and also it depends on their job sometimes even.

But I think you'll find in Tehran where younger people like to wear trendy clothes.

They like wearing jeans and colourful coats and t-shirts.

Yes, I think the younger people enjoy younger fashion like everywhere in the world.

They prefer to dress in a sporty manner, but of course for formal occasions,

the men will put on a very nice suit and the ladies will wear an evening dress.

Alright, do you think people behave differently in different kinds of clothes?

I think they probably do.

If you wear something smart and formal,

I think you subconsciously feel that you're supposed to behave very dignified maybe and you might even feel important.

But if you're wearing something comfortable and sporty and everyday,

you'll probably behave more casual as well and you'll probably be more approachable at the same time.

All right, thanks.

Now let's move on to the topic card.

I would like you to describe one of the shopping centers you often go to.

So you have to talk about the topic for about two minutes and you have one minute to think about a topic.

Here is a paper and a pencil to write down whatever you wish and then you may start.

Thank you.

Well, the shopping centre I normally go to is a very large one.

It was built, I think, about five or six years ago.

The reason I go there is because there's such a wide variety to choose from.

It has four or five different stories and numerous, numerous different shops.

Basically, you can find whatever you're looking for, whether it's a pair of flip-flops or a formal evening dress.

It's...

I would probably say I go there at least once a month or maybe twice.

I might not even buy anything but there's also cafes

and restaurants to sit and have a bite to eat in

so i might end up just going there with a friend

or a few friends just for a coffee and maybe do some window shopping

um i go to this particular one

because as i mentioned before you can find whatever it is you're looking for sportswear formal wear shoes bags accessories

and even i think recently household equipment

all right so now i would like to ask you a few more detailed questions related to the same topic

will a smaller shop survive in the current business system i've actually never thought about this before

but um i would assume

that they would especially in rural areas where um the demand for a big shopping center is probably zero.

However, the population is growing and there are new products every day.

So I think they'll diminish in numbers in more urban areas,

but however, not completely disappear from the face of the earth.

A lot of people still prefer to go to their local shop to buy what they're looking for

and support these family businesses.

What are the differences of modern shopping malls and smaller shops?

Well, again, I haven't given this much thought before,

but I suppose a modern shopping mall is quite inviting with its huge structure and its modern architecture.

and there's so much to choose from as opposed to smaller local shops.

I think this abundance of choice might be a bit confusing at times.

Smaller shops tend to store less items.

When you go in, you don't have that huge variety to confuse you.

And of course, the appearance is more traditional.

Okay, thanks.

And the last question, what is the trend of future shopping centers?

Well, in my opinion, I think the future of shopping centers will be that they will be fewer in numbers,

but probably a lot bigger.

But I think this will be because people will want to go to one place and buy whatever that they need.

There's also this growing trend of internet shopping,

but I don't think internet shopping will take over completely because I think people generally prefer,

a lot of people prefer to see and feel what they're about to purchase before making the decision.

thank you very much Sogul this is the end of your interview have a nice day thank you very much

I'm

going

to go to the next video.

Thank you.

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।
