Hey there!

English teacher Claire here with another Shadowing Practice.

If you like these practices, I have an entire playlist of these.

Let me know in the comments how it goes for you and what you'd like to see in an upcoming practice.

For today's practice, I'm going to read a pretty natural conversation between two people about deciding what to eat and going to a restaurant and ordering.

So not only will this help you with your pronunciation of English, but it's also going to give you some really practical, useful phrases that you can use while speaking.

So first, you're going to repeat after me.

Hey, I'm getting kind of hungry.

Your turn.

Let's repeat again.

Hey, I'm getting kind of hungry.

Do you want to grab something to eat?

Your turn.

Do you want to grab something to eat?

What are you in the mood for?

I'm not too picky, but I could really go for something filling.

Maybe pasta or some kind of comfort food.

That sounds good, but I'm also trying to eat a little healthier lately.

Yeah, same here.

Maybe we can find a place that has both something healthy and satisfying.

Yeah, same here.

Maybe we can find a place that has both something healthy and satisfying.

Okay now I'm going to point out some pronunciation tips for you in this section and some useful phrases that you may or may not already know and then we're going to shadow it all together.

So in our first phrase, we can really link getting kinda hungry, getting kinda hungry.

The double T in getting becomes a flap T, so it ends up sounding like a d sound.

Getting and kind of in rapid speech becomes kinda, kinda.

Getting kinda hungry.

Same with want to becomes wanna, wanna.

Do you want to grab something to eat?

What are you in the mood for?

Is a great expression when asking what someone would like to eat.

What do they feel hungry for?

We could ask, what are you in the mood for?

And I'm not too picky means you don't really mind.

You would eat many different things.

You're not very particular about food.

I'm not too picky.

But I could really go for is a really useful expression to know.

It has a similar meaning to, you know, I would eat something filling.

I would prefer or, you know, I would really like that.

You know, I could really go for some pizza right now.

So you can use this expression to talk about anything really that you want to do.

We can also link the words trying to, to be tryna.

I'm also trying to eat a little healthier lately.

Okay, let's shadow this section.

So you're going to say it at the same time as me matching my rhythm and intonation and pronunciation, all of that.

Here we go.

Hey, I'm getting kind of hungry.

Do you want to grab something to eat?

What are you in the mood for?

I'm not too picky, but I could really go for something filling.

Maybe pasta or some kind of comfort food.

That sounds good, but I'm also trying to eat a little healthier lately.

Yeah, same here.

Maybe we can find a place that has both, something healthy and satisfying.

All right, now we're at the restaurant.

repeat after me hi do you have a table for two hi do you have a table for two if it's possible could we sit by the window if it's possible could we sit by the window?

Thanks.

Could we take a minute to look at the menu?

Thanks.

Could we take a minute to look at the menu?

Wow, everything looks so good.

I'm having a hard time deciding.

What are you thinking of getting?

I might go for the grilled chicken salad.

I think I'll get the pasta.

highly recommended.

I think I'll get the pasta.

It's highly recommended.

So you'll notice when I have the word for in rapid speech in the American English accent, we tend to pronounce this fur.

So do you have a table for two?

It's unstressed in the sentence.

So it becomes this kind of er vowel sound.

We hear that again in the phrase, I might go for the grilled chicken salad.

And to say I might go for something means that I might choose that.

So that's another good phrase when talking about what you want to order at a restaurant.

I might go for that.

I might go for the grilled chicken salad.

Pronunciation tip in the phrase, everything looks so good.

We can connect the sss sounds into one sound.

So don't separate them.

Looks so, but looks so.

Looks so good.

Another good expression here is I'm having a hard time deciding, or I'm having a hard time doing something.

And in this case, it means I'm finding it difficult to decide what to order.

I'm having a hard time deciding.

Okay, so now you've had a couple opportunities already to repeat these phrases after me.

Practice saying them with me at the same time.

Ready?

Hi, do you have a table for two?

If it's possible, could we sit by the window?

100

Thanks.

101

Can we take a minute to look at the menu?

102

Wow, everything looks so good.

103

I'm having a hard time deciding.

104

What are you thinking of getting?

105

I might go for the grilled chicken salad.

106

I think I'll get the pasta.

107

It's highly recommended.

108

Alright, repeat after me again.

109

Hi, we're ready to order.

110

Hi, we're ready to order.

111

I'll have the grilled chicken salad, please.

112

And could I get the dressing on the side?

113

I'll have the grilled chicken salad, please.

114

And could I get the dressing on the side?

115

I'll take the pasta.

116

Could we also get some water for the table?

117

I'll take the pasta.

118

Could we also get some water for the table?

119

Okay, so a couple ways you could order at a restaurant.

120

Great phrases to know, I'll have or I'll take.

121

Both polite expressions for ordering food.

122

And also notice the expression, could I get something on the side?

123

So you don't want your dressing on top of the salad, but you want it next to the salad on your plate so that you can do it yourself.

124

You could use this for different sauces or condiments, but again, a really good question for ordering food at a restaurant.

125

Could I get that on the side, please?

126

Notice the pronunciation of the word water in American English.

127

That T is in the middle of the word, so it's a flap T sounding like a D.

128

Water, water.

129

Okay, let's shadow this section.

130

Say it with me.

131

Hi, we're ready to order.

132

I'll have the grilled chicken salad, please.

133

And could I get the dressing on the side?

134

I'll take the pasta.

135

Could we also get some water for the table?

136

Repeat.

137

Wow, this looks amazing.

138

Wow, this looks amazing.

139

Yeah, the portion size is just right.

140

Yeah, the portion size is just right.

141

Hmm, this is really good.

142

Do you want to try a bite?

143

Hmm, this is really good.

144

Do you want to try a bite?

145

Oh wow, that's delicious.

146

Oh wow, that's delicious.

147

Okay, so often when we have a T at the end of the word in American English, we will drop that T sound.

148

And this isn't lazy pronunciation or anything.

149

It's just natural speech.

150

So that's how native speakers end up speaking with this very connected speech, where we tend to drop certain sounds or combine certain sounds.

151

And this happens really in any language, and it's a natural way of speaking.

152

So instead of just right, we end up having just right.

153

You can hear it sounds like I'm saying just as if the word ends in an S.

154

Just right.

155

And then right.

156

It's not right, but right.

157

You can hear that the sound stops.

158

You can almost think of it as a D sound.

159

So notice where your tongue is when you say d, d, and where the T is, t, t, where your tongue is for that and your mouth position for that.

160

We want more the mouth position for d.

161

So, right, right, and not right.

162

So you don't need to pronounce it with a D sound like ride or anything like that.

163

Take the mouth position.

164

Right, right.

165

The sound stops and this is a much more natural way of speaking.

166

Do you want to try a bite is a really casual, common expression to say, do you want to try some of my food?

167

And this is where shadowing is so helpful because you take a phrase like, do you want to try a bite?

168

And it's one thing to learn individual words.

169

Do you want to try a bite?

170

And it becomes, do you want to try a bite?

171

So you can match my exact intonation.

172

You can hear that my voice goes, do you want to try a bite?

173

That's what I mean about intonation.

174

And then do you becomes do, want to becomes wanna, try a bite, try a bite, try a bite.

175

So then it all comes together with this connected speech and you can practice all of that connection, link it up with my intonation.

176

Do you want to try a bite?

177

And then you're sounding really natural in English.

178

Okay, let's shadow this section.

179

Wow, this looks amazing.

180

Yeah, and the portion size is just right.

181

Hmm, this is really good.

182

Do you want to try a bite?

183

Oh, wow, that's delicious.

184

Okay, last section.

185

Repeat after me.

186

I'm so full.

187

That was exactly what I needed.

188

I'm so full.

189

That was exactly what I needed.

190

Same.

191

Do you want to get dessert?

192

Same.

193

Do you want to get dessert?

194

Maybe we can share something.

195

Maybe we can share something.

196

Good idea!

197

There's always room for dessert.

198

Good idea!

199

There's always room for dessert.

200

Alright, so notice the pronunciation of the word dessert.

201

The S sound in the word is voiced, so it's zzz, not sss.

202

And it's not desert, because that would be the first syllable is stressed.

203

When it's the double S talking about something sweet after a meal, the stress is on the second syllable, dessert.

204

What followed by a vowel sound creates the flap T ending.

205

So what I, what I, not what I, but what I, what I needed.

206

And this final expression is a great one in English.

207

There's always room for dessert.

208

That means even if we're really full, which means I've had enough food, I can't eat anymore.

209

But then we can say, but there's always room for dessert.

210

So although I'm very full, I could still eat something sweet.

211

Because I don't know if you guys have ever experienced that.

212

You eat a full dinner and you think, I'm so full, I couldn't possibly eat any more food.

213

But then you see a slice of cake or a bit of chocolate and you think, you know what?

214

I still have some room.

215

I still have some room in my stomach.

216

There's always room for dessert.

217

Okay guys, let's shadow this final section.

218

Say it with me?

219

I'm so full.

220

That was exactly what I needed.

221

Same.

222

Do you want to get dessert?

223

Maybe we can share something.

224

Good idea.

225

There's always room for dessert.

226
