Here we are at level one.

We're going to start with a short, easy sentence.

Just say it with me or pause the video and repeat it back.

Let's start slow.

Are you ready?

I completely spaced on her name.

One more time.

I completely spaced on her name.

Once more, a little faster.

I completely spaced on her name.

All right, great.

Let's look at this expression, spaced on.

What does that mean if you space on something?

That means you can't remember it, right?

You are drawing a blank, in other words.

At one point you knew, but right now you can't seem to remember.

You're spacing on it, spacing on it.

I'll give you guys a real life example.

One time I went on vacation for three weeks.

It was a pretty long vacation, right?

Well, when I got home, I got to my apartment building.

I got in the elevator and I completely spaced on what floor I lived on.

At the time, I couldn't remember, right?

Okay, let's go ahead and level up to level two.

Here we are, level two.

As you can see, I've stretched out the sentence.

I've made it longer, right?

Well, let's start with a slow read.

Here we go.

I completely spaced on her name, even though we had just met yesterday.

Oh, OK.

So this person, right, they had just learned this name yesterday.

It should have been fresh on the mind.

It should have been fresh on the brain, right?

It should have come to them like that.

They should have remembered right away.

But unfortunately, they spaced on her name.

Yikes.

That's awkward, right?

I don't know about you guys, but I can relate to this.

I'm very, very bad with names.

Always spacing on names.

Let's say level two again at a quicker speed, and then we will keep leveling up and stretching this sentence longer.

Here we go.

I completely spaced on her name even though we had just met yesterday.

All right, slow speed, here we go.

I completely spaced on her name even though we had just met yesterday and she was standing right in front of me.

A very awkward situation.

A very awkward or we could say cringe.

cringe situation.

Yeah, he had just met her yesterday, right?

He had just learned her name.

He should have remembered.

Plus, she was standing right in front of him, right?

But unfortunately, he forgot her name.

He spaced on her name.

Super awkward, super cringe.

Let's say it again.

Quick speed.

Here we go.

I completely spaced on her name, even though we had just met yesterday, and she was standing right in front of me.

Flying along, level four.

Here we go, slow speed.

I completely spaced on her name even though we had just met yesterday and she was standing right in front of me,

which made things super awkward.

Okay, one more time, quick speed.

I completely spaced on her name even though we had just met yesterday and she was standing right in front of me, which made things super awkward.

Things are tense.

They're awkward.

They're cringe.

Let's go to level five and see how our main character can get out of this uncomfortable situation.

Say with me, here we go.

I completely spaced on her name, even though we had just met yesterday, and she was standing right in front of me,

which made things super awkward because I had to introduce her to my boss.

Oh, no. This is a real nightmare scenario.

This is the kind of situation that's like my worst nightmare.

Being in a position, being in a scenario,

being in a situation where it's revealed that you forgot someone's name,

someone's name that you should remember.

You've totally spaced on their name, right?

Now, our main character, this person, has to introduce her to his boss, the person above him at work.

Yikes.

Uh-oh.

Let's read this again at a quick speed, and then we'll keep on leveling up.

You guys are doing great.

Keep working that speaking muscle.

Here we go.

I completely spaced on her name, even though we had just met yesterday, and she was standing right in front of me,

which made things super awkward because I had to introduce her to my boss.

Take a look at level six here, guys.

This is getting to be quite the mouthful, right?

Our sentence is getting really long, but this is fantastic practice.

It's like a workout for your speaking skills, okay?

Let's dive in.

100

let's kick it up let's turn up the speed to a

101

medium here we go I completely spaced on her name even though we had just met yesterday

102

and she was standing right in front of me

103

which made things super awkward because I had to introduce her to my boss

104

so I just mumbled and pointed this made me crack up a little bit.

105

Crack up made me laugh.

106

This person, they just mumble and they point.

107

We know what point is.

108

He kind of gestures at her.

109

Hey, here's this person I want you to meet.

110

Hey, here's this person I'm trying to introduce you to.

111

But what is mumble?

112

Maybe we could say, speak under your breath, right?

113

You talk under your breath.

114

You talk in a quiet, kind of sloppy way where no one can hear you clearly.

115

Maybe people are straining.

116

They're straining to hear what you said.

117

Maybe they say, huh, what did you say?

118

You're mumbling.

119

You're mumbling.

120

I didn't quite catch that.

121

That means I didn't quite hear you, right?

122

Okay.

123

This main character of ours, this person, they are really digging a hole deeper and deeper here.

124

Let's see how they get out of it.

125

First, let's read the sentence again at a quick native speed.

126

Here we go.

127

Ready?

128

I completely spaced on her name, even though we had just met yesterday and she was standing right in front of me,

129

which made things super awkward because I had to introduce her to my boss.

130

So I just mumbled and pointed.

131

And look at the blue text here.

132

And my boss shot me this weird look.

133

Huh.

134

What does it mean if you shoot someone a look?

135

It's usually a negative thing, right?

136

A bad emotion.

137

Like you shoot someone an angry look.

138

You shoot someone an accusing look.

139

In this case, It's a weird look.

140

Maybe we could say the boss glanced at this person.

141

The boss looked at them quickly, and the boss clearly does not approve.

142

The boss is not happy, right?

143

Okay, let's read this whole thing.

144

Level seven, quick speed, and then we will level up.

145

Ooh, this is getting challenging.

146

Don't give up, guys.

147

Keep going.

148

Push.

149

Here we go.

150

I completely spaced on her name.

151

Even though we had just met yesterday, and she was standing right in front of me, which made things super awkward, because I had to introduce her to my boss,

152

so I just mumbled and pointed, and my boss shot me this weird look.

153

Let's read the blue together first.

154

Here we go.

155

I could tell I'd totally fumbled it.

156

I had totally fumbled it.

157

What does that mean?

158

If you fumble something, That means you had some responsibility, right?

159

People had trusted you to do something and you couldn't do it.

160

You made a mistake.

161

Maybe we could also say slipped up.

162

You slipped up, right?

163

You made a mistake and you didn't do what you were supposed to do, what you were trusted to do, right?

164

You fumbled it.

165

You slipped up.

166

You made a mistake.

167

All right, here we go, guys.

168

Quick, speed, ready?

169

I completely spaced on her name, even though we had just met yesterday, and she was standing right in front of me,

170

which made things super awkward because I had to introduce her to my boss, so I just mumbled and pointed,

171

and my boss shot me this weird look.

172

I could tell I totally fumbled it.

173

Okay, blue text, read with me, But then she just laughed it off and said her name herself.

174

Thank goodness our main character got out of this sticky situation or tricky situation.

175

They were in a tough spot, an awkward spot, an awkward position.

176

Their boss shot them a weird look.

177

They thought maybe they were going to get in trouble, right?

178

But then this person, he's trying to remember her name.

179

He can't remember it.

180

What does she do?

181

She just laughed it off.

182

In other words, that's her way of saying no big deal.

183

Yeah, if you laugh something off, that's your way of saying, hey, hey, don't worry.

184

I'm not actually upset about this.

185

I'm not actually bothered by this.

186

maybe you did something to sort of offend me

187

but I'm just gonna brush it off I'm gonna laugh it

188

off don't worry it's no big deal don't worry about it

189

all right guys let's read this monster sentence before leveling up to level 10

190

and before we do that

191

if you have not clicked like on this video yet make sure you do

192

that right now maybe even leave me a comment letting me know where in the world you are watching from.

193

Here we go.

194

I completely spaced on her name, even though we had just met yesterday, and she was standing right in front of me,

195

which made things super awkward because I had to introduce her to my boss.

196

So I just mumbled and pointed, and my boss shot me this weird look.

197

I could tell I totally fumbled it.

198

But then she just laughed it off

199

and said her name herself here we go guys level 10

200

the final boss of today's video let's start with the blue text ready saving me from my own brain fart

201

and becoming the chillest person i know oh i love today's

202

super sentence you guys there is some really spoken natural native language here okay so this person,

203

she said her name herself, and she kind of saved him, right?

204

Saved him from what?

205

Saved him from his own brain fart, right?

206

Remember when he spaced on something?

207

We could also call that a brain fart.

208

Now, don't use this language at work.

209

It's a little bit inappropriate, right?

210

But if you have a brain fart, then you forget something you usually know, right?

211

What if I forgot my mom's birthday, right?

212

Normally, I know that.

213

That's something I know very well.

214

But maybe suddenly, in the heat of the moment, in the heat of the moment, the pressure is on me.

215

Maybe I freeze up and I have a brain fart.

216

It slips my mind, we could also say.

217

Slips my mind or it slips your mind.

218

Okay, so this girl saved him from his own brain fart, right?

219

Right in front of his boss this happened and in doing so, because she did that, because she saved him,

220

she became the chillest or coolest person I know, A person who's really chill,

221

is really awesome, really cool, right?

222

Okay, guys, quick speed read of this level 10 sentence, but don't go away because we have a cool down exercise coming up next.

223

Here we go.

224

Ready?

225

I completely spaced on her name, even though we had just met yesterday, and she was standing right in front of me,

226

which made things super awkward because I had to introduce her to my boss.

227

So I just mumbled and pointed, and my boss shot me this weird look.

228

I could tell I totally fumbled it, but then she just laughed it off and said her name herself,

229

saving me from my own brain fart and becoming the chillest person I know.

230

If you guys made it all the way through this gigantic super sentence, you are one of the chillest people I know take your

231

hand give yourself a pat on the back to congratulate yourself

232

because you deserve it my friend as your YouTube English teacher I am super super proud of you

233

and I hope you never ever feel like you cannot speak long sentences in English ever again

234

because look look at this giant sentence we just spoke no

235

problem up next we have a paraphrase challenge to paraphrase is

236

to say something in a new way to put something in your own words

237

and it's a really great way to practice your linguistic flexibility right if you want to be fluent in English,

238

you need to be able to say one thing many different ways, right?

239

So that's what we're going to work on here.

240

Take a look at this.

241

I spaced on her name.

242

Do you remember?

243

What's a different way we can say that?

244

How about you pause the video, try it yourself first, and three, two, one, take a look at this.

245

You could also say, you blanked on someone's name, okay?

246

You blanked on their name I blanked I'm drawing a blank

247

right now I'm drawing a blank I completely forgot I totally forgot right now I can't remember right all of

248

that means I spaced on it right it slipped my mind

249

slipped my mind look at number two here things got super awkward what's another way we could say

250

that in English a different way pause the video try it

251

yourself three two one okay we could also say things are painfully cringe right

252

if a situation is super awkward we could also say it's really uncomfortable

253

really cringe really tense maybe embarrassing would be another good word to use here ah yeah that was super embarrassing.

254

Instead of I just mumbled and pointed, what's a different way we could say that?

255

In three, two, one, we could also say stammered and gestured.

256

Okay.

257

Maybe a gesture is kind of like pointing at someone, a gesture, right?

258

So point, we could say gesture.

259

I'd say waved is a little bit different than pointed, right?

260

You could maybe nod towards someone, give them a nod, but those are a little bit different than pointed, right?

261

I think mumbled would be a better word to paraphrase here.

262

Made a vague sound, an unclear sound.

263

That's pretty good.

264

Let out a noise, a strange noise, an unclear noise.

265

That's not bad.

266

Stammered is a little bit different because stammered is kind of like stuttering when you trip up over your words you're

267

trying to say something we call that stammering

268

or stuttering right mumbling is just talking under your breath a

269

little bit quieter look at this one here he shot me a weird look in three two one You could also say,

270

he threw me a strange side eye or gave me a strange side eye, hit me with a puzzled glance.

271

Puzzled meaning confused, right?

272

He gave me a what's wrong with you stare.

273

He gave me a look as if to say, dude, what is wrong with 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।
