1
Hi there everyone!
2
Welcome back to English with Catherine.
3
I'm so happy to be filming videos again.
4
Christmas is just around the corner.
5
Meaning it's very, very soon.
6
So of course I've got my Christmas earrings on, and of course sparkly bows.
7
Christmas is a kind of sparkly time of year.
8
The Christmas decorations are sparkling, the candle light is kind of sparkling, people wear sparkly jumpers and jewellery,
9
So today's video is going to make your English sparkle.
10
I'm going to give you some lovely expressions that will just make your speaking a little bit special.
11
I can't wait to show you them, so let's just get started.
12
So here we go.
13
Number one.
14
To have a change of scene.
15
To have a change of scene.
16
What do you think this means?
17
You know when you've been doing the same thing every day and sticking to the same daily routine?
18
Sometimes you just need a change of scene.
19
And this means a change of environment.
20
Going on holiday somewhere nice.
21
Just getting away for a couple of days.
22
Every February I like to have a change of scene.
23
I like to go away for a couple of nights or maybe even a week.
24
January because of course December is Christmas time and I like being at home.
25
And January, well, everyone's sort of hunkering down.
26
It's winter, it's cold.
27
Having a change of scene can be really good for your mental health.
28
Because removing yourself from your daily life can really help to give you a new perspective on things.
29
Maybe you need to review how your life is and what you'd like to change.
30
So make sure you have a change of scene if you need it.
31
Number two.
32
To have a cold spell.
33
To have a cold spell I love this expression because it involves spells.
34
and it makes me think of magic and fairies.
35
So what this means is to have a temporary period of very cold weather.
36
It kind of just comes out of the blue, which means comes out of nowhere.
37
Now as you probably know, British weather is very unpredictable, which is why it's often talked about in small talk, because it is a constant source of intrigue.
38
When we were away on our honeymoon in Ireland, we had a really cold spell, It just suddenly got freezing!
39
And while we were away, because of this cold spell, some mice decided to move in to our house.
40
So cute, honestly.
41
They're field mice.
42
So they're not like horrible city mice.
43
But still, Not really ideal.
44
I mean if I was a mouse I would definitely move in here.
45
It's very cozy and it was empty for two weeks
46
because we were away for that long so I'm sure they were very happy here.
47
After a cold spell, generally the weather gets milder and starts to warm up.
48
Because a cold spell is only temporary.
49
Thank goodness.
50
Number three.
51
skeletons in the closet.
52
Skeletons in the closet.
53
This one is about secrets.
54
If you have skeletons in the closet or your family has skeletons in the closet, it means they have dark secrets.
55
things that they'd rather people didn't know.
56
And if the secrets did come out, it would maybe be a bit damaging to their reputation or be a bit embarrassing.
57
So you can say, I reckon that family has many skeletons in the closet.
58
many secrets they're keeping.
59
What about you?
60
Do you have any skeletons in the closet?
61
I won't tell anyone.
62
Number four: to dig deep.
63
Titt.
64
Dig.
65
Deep.
66
This idiom is about resilience, trying really hard when things get tough.
67
If you dig deep, you have to find the strength to carry on.
68
Maybe you're going through a difficult time Maybe you're trying to complete a difficult task
69
and you just need to dig deep to get to the end of it.
70
In the lead up to my wedding, things got a bit chaotic.
71
and I really had to dig deep in the dates leading up to the wedding, just to stay calm and focused.
72
In the end I had the best day ever so of course it was all worth it.
73
Number five: to the moon and back.
74
to the moon and back
75
This is an idiom about love when you want to express your love for someone in the strongest way possible.
76
I love you to the moon and back.
77
Imagine the journey it takes to go all the way to the moon and back.
78
That's how you're measuring your love for someone.
79
I don't know about you, but I absolutely love big declarations of love.
80
Some people think it's kind of cheesy or cringe but I think it's so romantic.
81
We only live once, guys, so why not tell the person you love that you really love them?
82
You could also express this love to a very good friend.
83
Friendship is so important.
84
I feel like sometimes we forget that.
85
In the age we're living in now, it's all about the individual and how to be more independent.
86
but we can never forget the value of friendship.
87
Number six: Time is of the essence.
88
Time is of the essence.
89
If you say time is of the essence, it means it's important to act quickly.
90
We don't have much time, we must act now.
91
Very often in British English we use an expression to say something quite strong.
92
What it does is it softens it slightly so that it's less direct.
93
So when you want someone to really hurry up, instead of saying, "Come on, hurry up, we're running out of time !" you can just say,
94
"Time is of the essence." And that person will get the hint hopefully that you haven't got much time and Let's go!
95
Number seven.
96
Waste not, want not.
97
Waste not, want not.
98
This is a good one for practicing your T's on the end of words.
99
Waste Not Want not Lots of /t / And that sound is essential if you want a British accent.
100
So what does it mean?
101
If you say "waste not, want not" often in that voice, actually, it means let's not waste this.
102
This is often related to cooking.
103
If you cook a meal and then you say "waste not, want not" it means let's not waste any of it.
104
If there are leftovers, let's keep them and use them for something else.
105
My granny grew up in a war and they had to ration everything.
106
And so she always used to say this, which is probably why I love the expression.
107
"My granny used to wash her hands using a bar of soap, and when she had nearly finished her bar of soap,
108
she just had a little bit left and she used to stick it to the next bar of soap.
109
just so that no soap was wasted.
110
And she used to say, "Waste not, what not," as she did it.
111
I remember her saying that.
112
We live in a world of consumption now, don't we?
113
Everyone is consuming, consuming, consuming, It's nice not to waste things if we can help it.
114
Number eight, the final expression.
115
done and dusted.
116
Done and dusted.
117
Now that's actually the way we pronounce that.
118
When you see the expression it looks like "done" and "dusted" but in speech we say it slightly differently.
119
So Done and dusted.
120
So we're removing the D on the end of "and" to make it smoother and sound nicer.
121
Done and dusted.
122
When something is done and dusted, It means it is complete.
123
The task or whatever it is has been completed.
124
and you have that lovely, satisfying feeling when you've finished something.
125
Especially if that task has taken a long time or required a lot of effort.
126
For example, after two and a half months of work, the project is finally done and dusted.
127
We can all move on!
128
Well everyone, I hope you enjoyed that.
129
I'm wishing you all a wonderful Christmas.
130
I hope it's full of love and sparkle.
131
Thank you so much for all your support this year.
132
Thank you for sticking with me when I was away on my honeymoon and when I was getting married.
133
I really appreciate that, honestly.
134
See you in the new year.
135
Bye.

संदर्भ और पृष्ठभूमि
वक्ता कैथरीन ने हमें एक दिलचस्प और उत्साही वीडियो में स्वागत किया, जिसमें उन्होंने यह बताया कि कैसे हम अपनी अंग्रेजी बोलने की दक्षता को और भी आकर्षक बना सकते हैं। क्रिसमस का समय आस-पास है, और वे इस खास मौके को और भी चमकीला बनाने के लिए कुछ उपयोगी अभिव्यक्तियाँ साझा कर रही हैं। अंग्रेजी सीखने वाले छात्रों के लिए यह वीडियो न केवल बुनियादी शब्दावली प्रदान करता है, बल्कि यह अंग्रेजी उच्चारण में सुधार भी करने में मददगार है। इस वीडियो में दिए गए वाक्यांशों को सीखकर, आप अपनी संवाद कौशल को निखार सकते हैं और अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास कर सकते हैं।
दैनिक संचार के लिए शीर्ष 5 वाक्यांश
- To have a change of scene: इसका मतलब होता है, 'परिवेश में बदलाव करना।' जब आपका दिनचर्या बोरिंग हो जाती है, तो नए स्थान पर जाकर मानसिक स्वास्थ्य के लिए बहुत फायदेमंद होता है।
- To have a cold spell: यह एक अस्थायी बहुत ठंडी मौसम का अनुभव करने का संकेत है। ब्रिटिश मौसम की अनिश्चितताओं के कारण, यह बातचीत का एक रोचक विषय बन जाता है।
- To sparkle: इसका मतलब होता है, 'चमकना'। आप अपनी भाषा को चमकीला और दिलचस्प बना सकते हैं।
- To hunker down: इसका अर्थ होता है, 'सुरक्षित स्थान पर बैठना' या 'अपनी रोजमर्रा की जिंदगी में ध्यान केंद्रित करना।'
- To come out of the blue: अचानक होने वाली किसी घटना का मतलब है, जिसे किसी ने सोचा न हो।
स्टेप-बाय-स्टेप शैडोविंग गाइड
इस वीडियो की कठिनाई से निपटने के लिए, shadowspeak तकनीक का उपयोग करें। इसमें आपको कैथरीन की बातें सुनकर उन्हें दोहराना है। इससे आपका अंग्रेजी उच्चारण में सुधार होगा और आप अपनी बोलने की क्षमता में वृद्धि करेंगे। आपके द्वारा सुने गए वाक्यांशों को सही तरीके से अदा करने के लिए, अगली विधियाँ अपनाएं:
- वीडियो देखें और पहले सुनें कि कैथरीन कैसे बोलती हैं।
- उनकी वर्तनी और उच्चारण पर ध्यान दें, और कोशिश करें कि आप उसी समय उन्हें बोले।
- कई बार इसे दोहराएं, जब तक आप खुद को सहज न महसूस करें।
- कभी-कभी ठहराव लें और अपने उच्चारण की तुलना अपने से करें।
- वीडियो के अंत में जो वाक्यांश सीखे हैं, उन्हें अपने दैनिक जीवन में उपयोग करने का प्रयास करें।
अंत में, यूट्यूब से अंग्रेजी सीखें और अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करते रहें। नियमित रूप से shadowspeaks के मदद से अपनी प्रगति को मापें और अपने सुधार को मान्यता दें।
इस वीडियो का व्याकरण
वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:
| संरचना | वीडियो में |
|---|---|
| “used to” used to + क्रिया — बीती आदत या स्थिति जो अब नहीं है | used to say · used to wash · used to stick |
| शर्त वाले वाक्य if + उपवाक्य, will/would + क्रिया — शर्त और उसका नतीजा | if I was a mouse I would definitely |
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है | has been completed · you've finished · has taken |
| Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारी | blue, which means · unpredictable, which is · this, which is |
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।
