Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel,
2
where learning English is easy and fun.
3
I'm Emily.
4
And I'm Paul.
5
Hello Emily.
6
Hi everyone.
7
It is so good to be here with you today.
8
How are you Emily?
9
I'm doing great, thank you.
10
Today we have a very special episode about something we all do every day.
11
That's right.
12
We are talking about daily routines.
13
We have a lovely story to share with our listeners.
14
We will listen to it first,
15
and then we will talk about the expressions.
16
It is a very simple and clear story.
17
It is perfect for our friends who are learning English.
18
Exactly.
19
Are you ready to hear it for the first time, Paul?
20
I am ready.
21
Let's listen to the story of this daily routine.
22
Every day I wake up at seven in the morning.
23
I usually feel a bit tired,
24
but I try to start my day calmly.
25
After I wake up, I open the window.
26
It helps me feel fresh and awake.
27
Then I go to the bathroom and wash my face.
28
I like to feel clean before breakfast.
29
I usually have a light breakfast.
30
I eat yogurt with fruit,
31
and I drink a cup of tea.
32
After breakfast, I get dressed for my day.
33
I choose simple and comfortable clothes.
34
I leave home at 8.30 a.m.
35
I usually take the bus to work.
36
I start working at 9.30 a.m.
37
I check my schedule and focus on my tasks.
38
At noon, I take a break.
39
I usually eat something healthy.
40
After work, I like to go for a walk.
41
It helps me relax.
42
Then, I return home and take a relaxing shower.
43
It helps me feel refreshed and clean.
44
At night, I listen to music for a few minutes.
45
Then I go to bed at 11pm.
46
This is my daily routine.
47
This is my life.
48
What a nice story!
49
It sounds like a very peaceful day.
50
I agree, Emily.
51
It is simple but very organized.
52
Yes.
53
Now let's look at the first part.
54
She says, I wake up at 7 in the morning.
55
Wake up is a very important phrasal verb.
56
It means the moment you open your eyes.
57
Yes.
58
Some people confuse wake up with get up.
59
Do you know the difference, Paul?
60
Oh, that's a good question.
61
I think get up is when you actually leave the bed.
62
Exactly.
63
You can wake up at 7 but stay in bed until 7.15.
64
That is me.
65
I wake up early, but I stay in bed for a long time.
66
Me too.
67
It's hard to leave the warm blankets.
68
And she says at 7 o'clock.
69
We always use at for specific times, right?
70
Yes, Paul.
71
We say at 7 o'clock,
72
at 8.30, or at noon.
73
That is a very useful rule for our students.
74
At is for the clock.
75
Then she says she feels a bit tired.
76
I love that expression, a bit.
77
Me too.
78
It is very common in conversation.
79
It means a little.
80
Yes, it sounds very natural.
81
You can say, I am a bit hungry,
82
or I am a bit cold.
83
And she tries to start her day calmly.
84
That is a nice adverb.
85
It really is.
86
It comes from the word calm.
87
She doesn't want to rush.
88
I understand that.
89
Rushing in the morning is the worst.
90
Hmm, what does she do next?
91
Ah, she opens the window.
92
She says it helps her feel fresh and awake.
93
I do that too.
94
Fresh air is the best way to wake up your brain.
95
It's very healthy.
96
Oh yes.
97
Especially in the spring when the air is cool.
98
Then she goes to the bathroom to wash her face.
99
Simple but important.
100
Very important.
101
We use the word wash for many things in a routine.
102
Yes.
103
You wash your face, you wash your hands,
104
and you wash the dishes.
105
She says she wants to feel clean before breakfast.
106
Before is the opposite of after.
107
Exactly.
108
These are great words for talking about a sequence of events.
109
Then comes the best part of the day – breakfast.
110
I agree.
111
She says she has a light breakfast.
112
Light, in this case, means not a lot of food.
113
It's not a heavy meal.
114
She eats yogurt with fruit.
115
Paul, do you like yogurt for breakfast?
116
I do, but I usually add some honey.
117
It makes it taste better.
118
Yum.
119
And she drinks a cup of tea.
120
Ah, she is a tea person.
121
Are you a tea person or a coffee person, Emily?
122
Oh, I am definitely a coffee person.
123
I need coffee to function.
124
I knew it.
125
I like both, but I usually choose tea in the morning.
126
That's nice.
127
After breakfast, she gets dressed.
128
This is another phrasal verb.
129
It means putting on your clothes.
130
Yes, she chooses simple and comfortable clothes.
131
That is smart.
132
If you are comfortable, you can work better.
133
I agree.
134
I don't like wearing very tight or formal clothes all day.
135
Then she leaves home at 8.30.
136
Notice she doesn't say leaves from home.
137
That's a very common mistake.
138
In English, we just say leave home or leave the office.
139
Good point, Emily.
140
And she takes the bus to work.
141
We use the verb take for most public transportation.
142
Take the bus, take the train, take a taxi.
143
What if you go by car?
144
Do you say, take the car?
145
You can, but usually people say, I drive to work.
146
Ah, I see.
147
And she starts working at 9.30.
148
She says she checks her schedule.
149
A schedule is like a plan for the day.
150
Is it similar to a calendar?
151
Yes, it has your meetings and the things you need to do.
152
Then she focuses on her tasks.
153
Tasks is a fancy word for jobs or activities.
154
Exactly, like answering emails or writing reports.
155
Those are tasks.
156
At noon, she takes a break.
157
Noon is a very specific time, isn't it?
158
Yes, it is exactly 12 o'clock in the middle of the day.
159
And for 12 o'clock at night, we say midnight.
160
Wow, look at us.
161
We are learning so many words.
162
We are.
163
She also says she eats something healthy for her break.
164
That's good.
165
Like a salad or some nuts.
166
It gives you energy.
167
If you are enjoying this conversation,
168
don't forget to like the video,
169
subscribe to the channel, and share it with a friend who is learning English.
170
Yes, and if you are still listening, comment my routine below.
171
We want to know you are here.
172
Great.
173
Now, let's continue with the story.
174
What happens after work?
175
She says, after work, I like to go for a walk.
176
I love that.
177
Walking is so relaxing after a long day at the office.
178
It really is.
179
She says it helps her relax.
180
Relax is a great word.
181
It means to rest and feel calm.
182
Then she returns home.
183
You can also say goes home or gets home.
184
True.
185
They all mean coming back to your house.
186
And then she takes a relaxing shower.
187
Ah, there is nothing better than a warm shower after work.
188
She says it makes her feel refreshed.
189
That's a lovely word.
190
It means you feel new and full of energy again.
191
Then at night, she listens to music for a few minutes.
192
Music for a few minutes.
193
A few means a small number,
194
maybe five or ten minutes.
195
It's a nice way to end the day.
196
Music is good for the soul.
197
And finally, she goes to bed at 11pm.
198
She uses at again.
199
At 11pm.
200
Perfect grammar.
201
She says, this is my daily routine.
202
This is my life.
203
It sounds very content.
204
I agree.
205
It's a very balanced routine.
206
Emily, do you have a routine like this?
207
A little bit.
208
I also wake up early,
209
but I drink coffee instead of tea.
210
And I take a walk in the morning instead of the evening.
211
Everyone has a different routine, and that is okay.
212
It is the beauty of life.
213
We are all different.
214
Let's look at some other ways to say these things.
215
For example, I usually feel a bit tired.
216
You could also say, I am usually a little sleepy.
217
Yes, sleepy is a good word for the morning.
218
And instead of get dressed,
219
you can say, put on my clothes.
220
Good job, Paul.
221
And for take a break,
222
you can say, have a rest.
223
Yes, I need to have a rest is very common in the UK.
224
What about go for a walk?
225
Is there another way?
226
Hmm, maybe take a stroll,
227
but that is a bit more formal.
228
You're right.
229
Go for a walk is the most natural for beginners.
230
I think we should listen to the story one more time now that we know all the words.
231
That's a great idea.
232
Listening again helps the brain remember everything.
233
Okay, everyone.
234
Listen closely this time.
235
See if you can hear the expressions we talked about.
236
Every day I wake up at 7 in the morning.
237
I usually feel a bit tired,
238
but I try to start my day calmly.
239
After I wake up, I open the window.
240
It helps me feel fresh and awake.
241
Then I go to the bathroom and wash my face.
242
I like to feel clean before breakfast.
243
I usually have a light breakfast.
244
I eat yogurt with fruit,
245
and I drink a cup of tea.
246
After breakfast, I get dressed for my day.
247
I choose simple and comfortable clothes.
248
I leave home at 8.30 a.m.
249
I usually take the bus to work.
250
I start working at 9.30 a.m.
251
I check my schedule and focus on my tasks.
252
At noon, I take a break.
253
I usually eat something healthy.
254
After work, I like to go for a walk.
255
It helps me relax.
256
Then I return home and take a relaxing shower.
257
It helps me feel refreshed and clean.
258
At night, I listen to music for a few minutes.
259
Then I go to bed at 11 p.m.
260
This is my daily routine.
261
This is my life.
262
It's even better the second time.
263
I can understand every word.
264
Me too.
265
It's a very clear story.
266
I hope our listeners liked it.
267
I'm sure they did.
268
Learning English through stories is the best way.
269
It makes the language feel real and not like a boring book.
270
Exactly.
271
You hear how people actually speak.
272
Emily, what is your favorite part of your daily routine?
273
Oh, for me, it is definitely the coffee in the morning.
274
I love the smell.
275
Yes, I knew it.
276
For me, it is the walk in the park.
277
It's so quiet.
278
That sounds very peaceful, Paul.
279
It really is.
280
Well, I think we learned a lot today.
281
We did.
282
We talked about times, phrasal verbs, and healthy habits.
283
It was a very productive conversation.
284
Yes, I feel very happy about this episode.
285
Me too!
286
Our listeners are doing a great job.
287
Yes, keep practicing every day.
288
Even five minutes is good.
289
That's right.
290
Consistency is the secret to learning English.

Perché praticare parlando con questo video?
Questo video è un'occasione perfetta per migliorare le tue abilità di conversazione in inglese. Parlando di routine quotidiane, il contenuto è accessibile anche per i principianti. L'ascolto e la ripetizione delle frasi ti aiuteranno a integrarle nel tuo vocabolario quotidiano. Il metodo delle ombre (shadowspeak) può essere particolarmente efficace qui; puoi imitare l'inflessione e il ritmo degli oratori per affinare la tua pronuncia. Inoltre, parlarne potrà darti fiducia nel condividere la tua quotidianità in inglese.
Grammatica & Espressioni nel contesto
Nel video, ci sono diverse espressioni chiave e strutture grammaticali che vale la pena notare:
- “I usually feel a bit tired” - L'uso di “usually” è importante per esprimere una routine.
- “I like to feel clean before breakfast” - La struttura “like to” è usata per descrivere preferenze personali.
- “I take a break” - Questa espressione è comune nel contesto lavorativo e utile per parlare delle pause.
- “I return home” - Usare “return” in questa frase evidenzia l'azione di tornare indietro, un'altra costruzione utile nelle conversazioni quotidiane.
- “It helps me feel refreshed” - Qui l’uso di “helps” mostra come le azioni quotidiane possano influenzare il nostro stato d’animo.
Queste strutture possono essere usate frequentemente nella tua vita quotidiana e sono un ottimo punto di partenza per migliorare la tua comunicazione.
Trappole comuni di pronuncia
Quando si tratta di pronuncia, ci sono alcune parole e frasi che potrebbero presentare delle difficoltà:
- “yogurt” - Assicurati di pronunciare correttamente la 'y' iniziale e la 'g' dolce.
- “comfortable” - Spesso si tende a pronunciare tutte le sillabe, ma in realtà suona più come “kumf-ter-bul”.
- “refresh” - La 're' richiama l'attenzione, quindi l'accento potrebbe cadere sulla seconda parte della parola.
Praticando con tecniche di shadow speech, puoi migliorare non solo il tuo vocabolario, ma anche la tua capacità di pronunciare queste parole più facilmente. Cerca di ripetere le frasi del video e presta attenzione all'accento di chi parla, per migliorare la tua pronuncia inglese.
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.
