Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Enjoy English Talks,

where every conversation helps you learn.

I'm Judy.

Hello, Judy.

Hello, everyone.

I'm Jake.

How are you today, Judy?

I am very good, thank you.

I watched a really nice movie last night, a comedy.

I laughed a lot.

And you, Jake?

I am okay.

But I want to tell you something, Judy.

Something that happened to me yesterday.

Oh?

Tell me.

I was at a bookstore.

A foreign tourist asked me,

excuse me, do you know where the subway station is?

And I understood every word.

Every single word.

That is great.

But then I opened my mouth and nothing came out.

Nothing?

Nothing.

My brain knew the answer.

Turn left, walk two blocks,

the station is on the right.

I knew all of that,

but my mouth could not say it.

I just stood there.

like a statue.

Oh, Jake.

What happened next?

I pointed.

I just pointed with my finger and said, that way.

Well, pointing works, too.

Yes, but I felt so bad.

I understand English.

I really do.

But when I need to speak, the words disappear.

Jake, you are not alone.

This is one of the biggest problems for English learners.

You can listen, you can read, you can understand but when it is your turn to speak,

the words get stuck.

Yes, the words get stuck.

That is exactly how it feels.

Like the words are in my brain,

but the door to my mouth is locked.

That is a beautiful way to say it.

And that is our topic today.

Really?

Yes.

Today we're going to talk about why you understand English but cannot speak,

and more importantly, how to fix it.

Oh, I need this.

I really, really need this.

There are four main reasons.

Four reasons why the words get stuck.

And for each reason, I will give you a solution.

A way to unlock that door.

Four reasons.

Four solutions.

Let's go.

But first, we have a small request.

Thank you.

It helps us so much.

We love our listeners.

Okay, now let's start.

Reason number one.

I call it the translation trap.

The translation trap?

What is that?

Let me ask you something, Jake.

When someone speaks to you in English,

what happens in your brain?

Um, well, I hear the English words,

then I translate them to my language,

then I understand, then I think of my answer in my language,

then I try to translate it back to English,

English, then I try to say it.

How many steps is that?

One, two, three, four, five.

Five steps?

Five steps.

Every time you want to say one sentence.

That is the translation trap.

You are not speaking English, you are translating English.

And translating takes time.

A lot of time.

That is why I'm so slow.

By the time I finish translating,

the other person is already talking about something else.

Exactly.

100

The conversation moves on, and you are still stuck on the last sentence.

101

So what is the solution?

102

Stop translating words.

103

Start thinking in pictures.

104

Pictures?

105

Yes.

106

Let me show you.

107

When I say apple, what do you see in your brain?

108

I see the word in my language,

109

and then I see a red fruit.

110

Okay.

111

From now on, skip the first step.

112

When you hear apple, go straight to the picture.

113

The red fruit.

114

No translation.

115

Just the picture.

116

Just the picture.

117

Apple, red fruit, no words in between.

118

Yes.

119

Now try this.

120

You want to say, I am hungry.

121

Do not think in your language first.

122

Think of the feeling.

123

Your stomach is empty.

124

You want food.

125

Then say, I am hungry.

126

So feel it, then say it,

127

not translate it, then say it.

128

Exactly.

129

Feel it, see it, then say it.

130

This is how you escape the translation trap.

131

Let me try.

132

I want to say, I went to the park this morning.

133

Okay, I'm seeing the park,

134

green trees, the path, my shoes on the ground.

135

I went to the park this morning.

136

Did you translate?

137

No, I just saw the picture and the words came out.

138

See?

139

It works.

140

That was faster, much faster.

141

It takes practice, but every day it gets a little easier.

142

Reason number three.

143

I call it the input-output gap.

144

Input and output?

145

I have heard those words before.

146

Input is everything that goes in.

147

Listening, reading, watching videos.

148

Output is everything that comes out.

149

Speaking, writing.

150

Okay.

151

So what is the gap?

152

Most English learners have a lot of input.

153

They listen to podcasts, they watch movies,

154

they read books, but they have very little output.

155

They almost never speak.

156

That sounds like me.

157

I listen to English every day,

158

but I almost never open my mouth.

159

And that is the problem.

160

Your ears are very strong.

161

Your mouth is very weak.

162

It is like going to the gym and only training your arms,

163

but never your legs.

164

One day, you try to run, and you fall down.

165

Oh, because my legs are not trained.

166

Exactly.

167

Your mouth needs training, too.

168

Listening is not enough.

169

You must practice speaking.

170

But Judy, who do I speak to?

171

I do not have English-speaking friends near me.

172

You do not need another person.

173

The best practice is talking to yourself.

174

Talking to myself?

175

People will think I am crazy.

176

Maybe.

177

But your English will be amazing.

178

Here's what I suggest.

179

Every day, pick one moment from your day and describe it in English.

180

out loud not in your head out loud one moment from

181

my day like what i ate for breakfast yes try it

182

now okay this morning i woke up late i made coffee

183

i burned my toast i ate the toast anyway it was not good perfect

184

that was five sentences and you did not translate you just talked i

185

just talked about my burnt toast

186

that is output practice you can do it in the shower on your walk

187

while you cook anytime you are alone talk to myself one

188

moment every day every day even two minutes is enough the

189

key is your mouth must move your voice must come out that is how you close the input-output gap.

190

Ears strong, mouth strong, both sides trained.

191

Exactly.

192

Reason number three.

193

I call it the fear filter.

194

The fear filter.

195

That sounds serious.

196

It is very common.

197

Let me ask you something.

198

Have you ever known the answer in English,

199

but you did not say it because you were afraid?

200

Yes, many times.

201

I think, what if my grammar is wrong?

202

What if people laugh at me?

203

What if I sound stupid?

204

So I stay quiet.

205

That is the fear filter.

206

Your brain has the words, but fear stops them.

207

Fear says,

208

do not speak you will make a mistake people will judge you fear is like a wall between my brain

209

and my mouth yes

210

and here's the truth jake mistakes are normal every person who

211

speaks english well they all made hundreds of mistakes first thousands of mistakes really really children make mistakes every day

212

when they learn to talk do we laugh at them no we think it is cute exactly

213

and when you make a mistake in English,

214

most people do not laugh.

215

They understand, they know you are learning,

216

and they respect you for trying.

217

So, it's okay to make mistakes?

218

It's more than okay.

219

Mistakes are how you learn.

220

Think about it this way.

221

Which is better, messy English or no English?

222

Messy English.

223

Exactly.

224

Messy English is beautiful.

225

Messy English means you are trying.

226

Messy English means you are grave.

227

No English means the fear won.

228

Messy English is better than no English.

229

I like that.

230

Say it again.

231

Messy English is better than no English.

232

Remember that.

233

Write it down.

234

Put it on your wall.

235

The next time fear says do not speak,

236

you say messy English is better than no English and you open your mouth.

237

I will.

238

I promise.

239

Good.

240

Because the world wants to hear your English,

241

Jake, even if it's messy.

242

Thank you, Judy.

243

That means a lot.

244

Reason number four, the last one.

245

I call it words without sentences.

246

Words without sentences.

247

What does that mean?

248

Let me ask you, how do you study English vocabulary?

249

I learn words one by one.

250

Apple, A-P-P-L-E, apple.

251

Dog, D-O-G, dog.

252

I write them in my notebook.

253

And when someone talks to you,

254

can you use those words in a sentence?

255

Um, sometimes, but it's hard.

256

I know the word delicious,

257

but when I eat good food,

258

I cannot quickly say, this is delicious.

259

The word is in my notebook,

260

but not in my mouth.

261

That is the problem.

262

You are learning single words.

263

But in real life, we do not speak in single words.

264

We speak in sentences, in phrases, in chunks.

265

Chunks?

266

Chunks are groups of words that go together, like ready-made sentences.

267

You do not build them word by word.

268

You learn them as one piece.

269

And when you need them, they come out fast.

270

Like a fast food meal.

271

Already made.

272

Just pick it up and eat.

273

I love that example.

274

Yes, chunks are like fast food for your mouth.

275

Already prepared, ready to use.

276

Can you give me some examples?

277

Of course.

278

Instead of learning the word sorry,

279

learn the chunk I'm sorry about that.

280

Instead of learning the word help,

281

learn can you help me with this?

282

Instead of learning the word think,

283

learn I think so too.

284

Oh, I already know those chunks.

285

I'm sorry about that.

286

Can you help me with this?

287

I think so too.

288

They come out easily because I have heard them many times.

289

Exactly.

290

You have heard them.

291

Now start collecting them.

292

When you listen to a podcast or watch a movie,

293

do not write down single words.

294

Write down the whole sentence, the whole chunk.

295

The whole chunk, not just the word.

296

Yes, and then say the chunk out loud,

297

five times, ten times, until it lives in your mouth,

298

not just in your notebook.

299

So, my notebook should have sentences, not just words.

300

Yes, your notebook is a chunk collection.

301

How was your day?

302

I had a great time.

303

What do you mean?

304

That makes sense.

305

No worries.

306

These are all chunks.

307

Learn them as one piece,

308

and they will come out fast when you need them.

309

I am going to change my notebook today.

310

No more single words, only chunks.

311

That is the best thing you can do.

312

Okay, Jake, let me tell you a short story.

313

I have a friend named Lily.

314

Lily studied English for 10 years.

315

She could read English novels.

316

She could watch English movies without subtitles,

317

without the words on the screen.

318

but when she traveled to London,

319

she could not order coffee.

320

Ten years of English and she could not order coffee?

321

She knew all the words,

322

coffee, large, please, milk, but in the moment, her brain was translating.

323

She was afraid of the waiter,

324

and she never practiced saying the whole sentence together.

325

Can I have a large coffee with milk, please?

326

The translation trap, the fear filter, and words without sentences.

327

All three reasons.

328

Yes.

329

But then Lily started talking to herself every day.

330

She practiced chunks, she stopped being afraid of mistakes,

331

and three months later, she ordered coffee in London,

332

in English, with a smile.

333

Three months?

334

That's fast.

335

Because she fixed the four reasons.

336

She stopped translating, she started speaking out loud,

337

she stopped being afraid, and she learned chunks, not just words.

338

If Lily can do it,

339

we can do it too.

340

Right, everyone?

341

Absolutely.

342

You can do it.

343

We believe in you.

344

Okay, let's review.

345

Yes, let's see what we learned.

346

Today, we talked about why you understand English but cannot speak.

347

Yes.

348

Reason one is the translation trap.

349

We translate in our heads.

350

The solution is to think in pictures, not words.

351

Good.

352

And reason two is the input-output gap.

353

We listen a lot but speak very little.

354

The solution is to talk to yourself every day.

355

Reason three is the fear filter.

356

We are afraid of making mistakes.

357

The solution is to remember messy English is better than no English.

358

And reason four is words without sentences.

359

We learn single words but not chunks.

360

The solution is to learn ready-made sentences.

361

The translation trap, the input-output gap,

362

the fear filter, words without sentences, four reasons, four solutions.

363

Perfect.

364

You remembered everything.

365

I learned a lot today.

366

Me too.

367

Well, that's all the time we have for today.

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।
