1
What's going on everybody?
2
This is Leo.

Today I'm going to talk about 25 phrases that can help you speak better English.
4
We are talking about collocations.
5
And these sentences that I'm going to share with you right now,
6
you can apply them to just everyday use.
7
If you speak like that,
8
it's going to help you sound more natural and confident in English.
9
So the first one that you can repeat after me is make a mistake.
10
You make a mistake.
11
In English we don't say we do a mistake, but we make a mistake.
12
And when you make a mistake,
13
it means to do something wrong.
14
An example like, I made a mistake on the test.
15
I made a mistake talking to her.
16
So don't use do, but make.
17
The first example that we're having right now,
18
we're going to emphasize the difference between do and make all right
19
so the next repeat make a noise make a noise it means to create a sound
20
so we say that the dog made a loud noise people make noises
21
when they are angry or they are hungry make noises my stomach may make noises
22
when i'm eating when i'm when i'm hungry for for for food i want to eat So my stomach make noises.
23
Okay
24
Make a decision make a decision decision like is a it's an important word and
25
Another way also to say that would be to take a decision you take a decision in your life when you grow up
26
You'll learn how to make decisions you learn how to choose something
27
and and but the thing is you don't do a decision you make it
28
or you take it you take decisions so you can also say it like
29
that to make a difference difference don't say G friends
30
but difference talking about the word make here you me
31
when you make a difference in other people's lives you have a significant impact on other people's lives
32
so the kindness that people have today for example they make a difference in my life
33
when I think about something that someone has done for me
34
that has made a difference in my life it's usually something
35
with gratitude something with kindness something with the the will to
36
help this is how you make a difference make money repeat
37
that make money this means in other words to earn money
38
so when you make money for example through your job or
39
when you do a task you earn some money
40
so one of the ways to make money today is through
41
your job some people work on the internet in order to
42
make money making money should be the right way to say
43
not not not really do like we don't use do in
44
this case we make money tell me here in the comments
45
how do you manage how do you managed to make money today?
46
How do you make money at this point in your life?
47
I'm curious to know.
48
Following that, we have the next expressions that we use take.
49
Okay?
50
So, notice that we're not going to say with this,
51
for example, take a break.
52
We say take a break and not do a break.
53
And when you take a break,
54
you simply rest or you take a pause.
55
So if you take a break from work,
56
if you take a break from your routine,
57
sometimes people take a break when they want to travel.
58
So they go away for the weekend and they take a break.
59
Take a shower is the next one.
60
It's another example that we have here.
61
Another way to say that is that we have a shower also we also have showers and take showers.
62
I'm gonna take a shower right after lunch.
63
Right after I record this video I'm gonna take a shower
64
and that's gonna be the moment when I'm in the shower bathing myself.
65
Take a look.
66
Repeat after me.
67
Take a look.
68
When you take a look,
69
you examine or you search for something.
70
So you can say to your friend,
71
oh, take a look at that car.
72
Take a look at this picture.
73
Take a look at me.
74
And I'll tell you who you are.
75
Take a look.
76
Take care of.
77
Repeat.
78
Take care of.
79
We're going to connect everything here.
80
So you're going to say,
81
can you take care of my cat?
82
Can you take care of my cat for me?
83
Notice that here I'm not pronouncing the T.
84
I'm not saying cat, but I do say cat.
85
Cat.
86
It's something very specific about pronunciation here.
87
It's not the goal of this video.
88
But to take care of something means to look after someone or something.
89
So when you look after,
90
you take care of it.
91
You want to protect it.
92
Take advantage of.
93
Repeat, take advantage of.
94
You can either benefit from something or someone.
95
So for example, you can take advantage of the prices to buy a new car.
96
Because when the prices are low,
97
you take advantage of that situation and you get what you want.
98
Something that we should take advantage of for real definitely should be the time that we spend with other people.
99
How do you spend time with other people?
100
That's a way to use this example, take advantage of.
101
Now do you say do the dishes or make the dishes?
102
What do you think?
103
In this case, definitely we say do the dishes,
104
which means to wash the dishes.
105
So, when the dishes, you know,
106
when you have your meal,
107
you have your plate or your bowl,
108
you have your cutlery, and they are dirty.
109
You need to wash them.
110
We do the dishes, in this case.
111
So I can say, I'm going to do the dishes right after dinner.
112
Or my wife is doing the dishes for us.
113
Do the dishes means to wash the dishes.
114
Okay.
115
So here is when we use do instead of make.
116
And when you think about that,
117
how do you, you know,
118
how do you memorize this?
119
It's all a matter of getting conceptualized,
120
getting internalized within the language.
121
And you do it when you read stuff in English,
122
when you read books.
123
You gotta be curious about it.
124
And the more you see, the more you learn. Do the homework.
125
Repeat, do the homework
126
to do the homework means to complete school assignments now you might ask homework
127

128
that we literally uh split homework as related to school
129
like assignments that teachers give you at school and housework on the other hand
130

Perché praticare il parlato con questo video?
La pratica di conversazione in inglese è fondamentale per acquisire fluidità e sicurezza nella lingua. Questo video offre un'opportunità eccellente per ascoltare e ripetere frasi comuni, permettendoti di interiorizzare strutture linguistiche frequentemente utilizzate. Ripetendo le espressioni proposte, non solo migliorerai la tua pronuncia, ma anche la tua capacità di comunicare in situazioni quotidiane. L'approccio di ascolto e ripetizione, noto come shadow speech o shadowspeak, è particolarmente efficace nel consolidare l'apprendimento linguistico. Gli ascoltatori possono assimilarne il ritmo e l'intonazione, essenziali per suoni più naturali e fluidi.
Grammatica ed espressioni nel contesto
Nel video, sono presentate diverse espressioni comuni che aiutano a capire come utilizzare correttamente i verbi "fare" e "prendere". Ecco alcune delle strutture chiave analizzate:
- make a mistake: In inglese, si dice "fare un errore", non "fare un errore". Questo mostra l'importanza di usare il verbo corretto per rendere il discorso più naturale.
- make a noise: Questa espressione significa "creare un suono". Imparare frasi come queste ti aiuta a migliorare la pronuncia inglese e costruire cognizioni linguistiche utili.
- make a decision: È importante sapere che utilizziamo "fare" per indicare decisioni, cosa che risulta essenziale per esprimere scelte in contesti comunicativi.
- make a difference: Questa frase, che indica avere un impatto sulla vita degli altri, è utile per parlare di esperienze personali e gratitudine.
- make money: Conoscere l'uso di questa espressione quotidiana è fondamentale per chi desidera discutere di lavori e guadagni.
Trappole comuni di pronuncia
Quando si pratica la parlata in inglese, alcune parole possono risultare particolarmente insidiose. Nel video, attenzione ai seguenti punti di pronuncia:
- make: Questa parola può essere confusa con "do". Assicurati di pronunciarla correttamente per evitare fraintendimenti.
- difference: Ricordati di enfatizzare la "dif", per non confonderla con altre parole simili.
- decision: La corretta pronuncia è fondamentale, in particolare per chi desidera partecipare a conversazioni più formali.
Utilizzare questo video come parte della tua pratica di conversazione in inglese e dedicare tempo al shadowing ti aiuterà a migliorare la tua comprensione e capacità comunicativa. Sii costante, ascolta attentamente e non avere paura di ripetere!
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
