Seriously, knowing that you chose to spend your time here learning and growing, that is beautiful.
11
Today we are going to talk about something very special.
12
We are going to talk about feelings and emotions in English.
13
Now I know what you might be thinking.
14
Feelings?
15
That sounds simple, right?
16
We all know how to say, I am happy or I am sad.
17
But here is the thing.
18
Life is not simple.
19
Your feelings are not simple.
20
And your English should not be simple either.
21
Think about it.
22
When something wonderful happens in your life, do you just feel happy?
23
No. You feel thrilled.
24
You feel over the moon.
25
You feel like you are on top of the world.
26
And when you can express these feelings in English, something magical happens.
27
You connect with people.
28
You share your real self.
29
You become more confident.
30
That is what we are going to do today.
31
We are going to learn how to express your feelings in a natural way.
32
in a powerful way, in a way that will make people listen to you and understand you. And the best part?
33
It is not difficult.
34
You just need to learn some new words and phrases.
35
And I promise you, by the end of this podcast, you will feel more confident.
36
You will feel ready to express yourself better.
37
So let me ask you something.
38
How do you feel right now?
39
Maybe you feel a little anxious because you are learning.
40
Maybe you feel excited.
41
Maybe you feel curious.
42
All of these feelings are good.
43
They show that you are alive.
44
They show that you care.
45
And today, we are going to give you the words to express all of them.
46
Let me start with a story.
47
A few years ago, I was learning a new language.
48
I remember feeling so frustrated.
49
I knew what I wanted to say in my mind, but I could not say it.
50
The words were not there.
51
I felt disappointed in myself.
52
I felt down.
53
Some days, I even felt like giving up.
54
But then I learned something important.
55
I learned that feelings are universal.
56
Everyone feels them, but the words to express them, those words are powerful.
57
When I learned the right words, everything changed.
58
I could finally say what I felt.
59
I could connect with people.
60
I could be myself.
61
And that is exactly what I want for you today.
62
I want you to feel that power.
63
I want you to learn these words and phrases so you can express yourself freely, so you can connect with English speakers around the world,
64
so you can be confident in any conversation.
65
Let us start with happiness.
66
Happiness is a beautiful feeling, right?
67
But here is the secret.
68
it.
69
There are so many ways to express happiness in English,
70
and each way shows a different level or type of happiness.
71
When you learn these different ways, you can paint a picture with your words.
72
You can make people feel what you feel.
73
Imagine this.
74
You just got a new job, the job you always wanted.
75
How do you feel?
76
You do not just feel happy.
77
No, no, no. You feel thrilled.
78
You are so excited that you want to jump and dance.
79
You feel over the moon.
80
You feel on top of the world.
81
Can you see the difference?
82
These phrases are strong.
83
They are powerful.
84
They show real emotion.
85
Or maybe something small happened.
86
A friend sent you a nice message.
87
A stranger smiled at you on the street.
88
The sun came out after many rainy days.
89
These small things can make you feel glad.
90
And you know what?
91
You can tell someone, that made my day.
92
Such a simple phrase, but so powerful.
93
It shows gratitude.
94
It shows that you notice the good things in life.
95
Here is something I want you to remember.
96
When you use these words and phrases, you are not just speaking English.
97
You are living English.
98
You are showing people who you really are.
99
And that is beautiful.
100
That is powerful.
101
Now, let us talk about sadness.
102
I know, I know, sadness is not fun to talk about.
103
But here is the truth.
104
Sadness is part of life.
105
We all feel it.
106
And when you are learning English, you need to be able to express it too.
107
Because sometimes, you will have a bad day.
108
Sometimes, things will not go the way you planned.
109
And you need the words to express that.
110
Maybe you feel disappointed because something did not work out.
111
Maybe you feel down because you are having a hard time with your studies or your work.
112
Maybe you just feel off today and you do not even know why.
113
All of these feelings are okay.
114
They are normal.
115
And now you have the words to express them.
116
Let me tell you something important.
117
When you can express your sadness in English, it helps you, it really does.
118
When you can say, I am having a hard time, or I feel down in the dumps,
119
you are not holding those feelings inside, you are sharing them.
120
And sharing helps.
121
It connects you with other people who understand.
122
makes you feel less alone.
123
I remember a time when I was learning English and I felt so frustrated.
124
I was trying to explain something important, but I could not find the words.
125
I felt upset with myself.
126
I felt like I was failing.
127
But then I learned to say, I am frustrated.
128
I learned to say, this is hard for me.
129
And you know what?
130
People understood.
131
They helped me.
132
They supported me.
133
Because I could express my feelings.
134
So do not be afraid of sadness.
135
Do not hide it.
136
Learn the words to express it.
137
Because when you can express all your feelings, the good and the bad,
138
That is when you become a real English speaker.
139
That is when you become confident.
140
Now let us talk about anger.
141
Oh, anger.
142
We all feel it sometimes, right?
143
Maybe someone is late and you feel annoyed.
144
Maybe you are trying to do something and it is not working.
145
And you feel frustrated.
146
Maybe something really bad happened and you feel furious.
147
All of these feelings are normal, but here is what I want you to understand.
148
When you learn to express anger in English, you learn control.
149
You learn to choose your words carefully because anger has many levels.
150
Small anger is different from big anger, and in English we have different words for each level.
151
If something small bothers you, you can say, I am a bit annoyed.
152
If something really makes you angry, you can say, I am fed up, or that really gets on my nerves.
153
And if something makes you very, very angry.
154
You can say, I am furious, or I am losing my temper.
155
See the difference?
156
Each phrase shows a different level of anger.
157
This is so important, because when you can express the right level of anger, people understand you better.
158
They take you seriously.
159
And you feel better too, because you are not holding that anger inside.
160
You You are expressing it in the right way.
161
Let me tell you about fear and worry.
162
These feelings can be difficult.
163
Sometimes we feel anxious about an exam or a job interview.
164
Sometimes we feel uneasy in a new place.
165
Sometimes we feel tense because we have a lot of stress.
166
All of these feelings are uncomfortable.
167
But they are part of life.
168
And in English we have beautiful phrases to express them.
169
You can say I am on edge when you feel nervous and worried.
170
You can say I have butterflies in my stomach when you feel excited, but also a little scared.
171
These phrases are so natural.
172
Native speakers use them all the time.
173
And when you use them, you sound natural too.
174
You sound confident.
175
There is something powerful I want to share with you.
176
When you learn these phrases, you are not just learning words.
177
You are learning to understand yourself better.
178
Because when you can name your feelings, you can understand them, you can manage them, you can grow from them.
179
Think about it.
180
When you feel anxious, and you can say, I feel anxious.
181
is the first step to feeling better.
182
When you feel tense and you can say, I feel tense, you can then find ways to relax.
183
The words give you power.
184
The words give you control.
185
Let us talk about surprise now.
186
Surprise is a fun feeling.
187
It can be good or bad, but it is always interesting.
188
Maybe you hear some amazing news and you feel stunned.
189
Maybe someone does something wonderful for you and you feel speechless.
190
Maybe you learn something incredible and you can say that blew my mind.
191
These phrases are so expressive.
192
They show your personality.
193
They show your excitement.
194
And when you use them, people smile.
195
People connect with you.
196
Because surprise is a universal feeling.
197
We all love to be surprised by good things.
198
I remember when I first learned the phrase, I did not see that coming.
199
I used it in a conversation, and the person I was talking to laughed and said, Exactly!
200
It felt so good.
201
It felt like I was really speaking English.
202
Not translating.
203
Not thinking too much.
204
Just speaking naturally.
205
And that is what I want for you.
206
Now, let me talk about tiredness.
207
This is something we all feel, especially when we are working hard or studying hard.
208
Maybe you feel exhausted after a long day.
209
Maybe you feel drained after a difficult week.
210
Maybe you feel burnt out because you have been doing too much for too long.
211
These words and phrases are so useful.
212
Because tiredness is not just one feeling.
213
There are different types of tiredness.
214
Physical tiredness is different from mental tiredness.
215
And in English, we have words for each type.
216
When you can say, I am wiped out or I am beat, people understand.
217
They know you need rest.
218
They know you are working hard. And that is important.
219
Because taking care of yourself is important.
220
And expressing your tiredness is part of taking care of yourself.
221
Here is what I want you to know.
222
Learning to express your feelings in English is not just about language.
223
It is about life.
224
It is about connection.
225
It is about being yourself in another language.
226
And that is powerful.
227
That is life-changing.
228
Think about all the conversations you will have in English. With friends. With colleagues.
229
With new people you meet.
230
In every conversation, feelings are there.
231
Happiness, sadness, anger, fear, surprise, tiredness.
232
All of them.
233
And when you can express these feelings naturally, you become a better communicator.
234
You become more confident.
235
You become more you.
236
So here is my challenge for you.
237
Today, right now, think about how you feel.
238
Do you feel glad that you are learning?
239
Do you feel thrilled about your progress?
240
Do you feel a bit anxious about speaking?
241
Do you feel determined to improve?
242
Whatever you feel, try to express it using the words and phrases we learned today.
243
Say it out loud.
244
Write it down.
245
Use it in a conversation. Because practice is everything.
246
The more you use these words, the more natural they become.
247
And soon, you will not even think about it.
248
You will just express yourself naturally in English.
249
I want to tell you something from my heart.
250

Consigli per la Pratica
Per migliorare la tua pronuncia e il tuo modo di esprimerti, ti consiglio di utilizzare una tecnica chiamata shadow speak. Ascolta attentamente il video e prova a ripetere le frasi esattamente come le senti. Il ritmo e il tono dell'oratore sono fondamentali; cerca di imitare le loro emozioni e intonazioni. Non preoccuparti di essere perfetto, ma concentrati sull'intonazione e sull'emozione che trasmetti. Puoi praticare anche in modalità shadowspeak, dove ripeti subito dopo l'oratore, cercando di non perderti nemmeno una parola. Ricorda, più pratichi, più migliorerai nella tua capacità di migliorare la pronuncia inglese e nell'esprimere i tuoi sentimenti in modo naturale. Infine, integrare la tua pratica con risorse come imparare l'inglese con youtube può offrirti una preziosa esposizione alla lingua e migliorare la tua fluenza.
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.
