1
We need to help Riley prepare.
2
Now is the time to send up every possible thing that could go wrong.
3
We are looking to the future.
4
Every possible mistake she could make.
5
Riley misses an open goal.
6
Coach writes about her notebook.
7
Yes!
8
More like that.
9
Oh no, they're using
10
Riley's imagination against her.
11
Val and her friends like us now.
12
But if we don't make the team, will they like us tomorrow?
13
We can't let her do this to Riley.
14
We have to shut this down.
15
Love it, 37.
16
Riley hits the puck into her own net.
17
Why are you drawing a hippo?
18
I'm not.
19
I'm drawing Riley.
20
Joy, you forgot her ponytail.
21
Oh, I love her ponytail.
22
Yes.
23
Riley scores and everyone hugs her?
24
81. That is not helping.
25
Today, we're learning English with Inside Out 2, and we'll also understand a little bit better how anxiety works.
26
Along the way, you'll learn over 16 advanced expressions like use something against someone, shut down, and score.
27
Now, don't just learn these expressions and then forget them.
28
If you want to feel confident when you speak, to speak naturally, just like you do your mother tongue,
29
then you need to be able to access these expressions when you get into a real conversation.
30
So, I have just the thing for you.
31
I want to give you access to all the smart flashcards from this lesson with Inside Out for free.
32
You can practice with them in our app by clicking the link below.
33
And thousands of learners just like you are becoming more fluent and having fun while doing it.
34
So if that sounds like something you'd like, be sure to try out our method.
35
You really only need a few minutes a day to see real progress.
36
Now let's see how joy overcomes anxiety.
37
Riley paints her nails to match her jersey.
38
Everybody copies her, and she is so cool.
39
Riley wears knee pads.
40
We buy flowers for the losing team.
41
What?
42
I can't always be the rage guy.
43
No, no, I liked it.
44
Nail polish knee pads?
45
I'm starting to think you guys don't understand the assignment.
46
What?
47
What?
48
What?
49
Um, who sent that projection to Riley?
50
Why would I know?
51
Ugh.
52
What is going on?
53
Who is sending all of this positive?
54
Riley misses an open goal.
55
Coach writes about her notebook.
56
Yes!
57
More like that.
58
Oh no, they're using
59
Riley's imagination against her.
60
When you use something against someone, you take something that's meant to help them and turn it into a weapon instead.
61
So Riley's imagination is supposed to be a fun creative tool, but anxiety is twisting it into a machine that makes
62
Riley scared so she avoids mistakes.
63
Pretty accurate to how real anxiety works.
64
And you'll understand this better with a couple examples, like this one from Shark Tale.
65
This is all my fault.
66
That's the classic move.
67
I've seen it a thousand times.
68
They take the thing you love the most and then they use it against you.
69
No parents for you until I get my crystal.
70
No, Supergirl, if you give them the crystal, they'll use it against you.
71
Oh, because I was thinking, what am I doing?
72
If I can find a new, you'll sooner or later find some way to use it against me.
73
Joy then says she wants to shut down Anxiety's operation.
74
We can't let her do this to Riley.
75
We have to shut this down.
76
What do you think that means?
77
Make it more organized?
78
Slow it down?
79
Stop it completely?
80
Nice!
81
You'll hear this everywhere from business, the factory shut down last year, to arguments.
82
She shut down his excuse immediately.
83
You can also say you shut down your computer when you power it off.
84
Now one of anxiety's projections shows
85
Riley messing up on the ice.
86
This is a hockey puck.
87
So here poor
88
Riley accidentally scores on her own team.
89
Every player's nightmare.
90
Anger then points out that
91
Joy is not a very good artist and she responds.
92
This hairstyle is called a ponytail.
93
So let's see what Joy drew.
94
He won.
95
That is not helping.
96
To score means to get a point in a game or sport, like scoring a goal in hockey or soccer, or scoring a basket in basketball.
97
Then, the other emotions also share ideas for positive projections they can send up to Riley.
98
Riley paints her nails to match her jersey.
99
Everybody copies her and she is so cool.
100
Riley wears knee pads.
101
These are knee pads.
102
Skaters, volleyball players, and construction workers all might wear them.
103
Fear is always thinking about how to keep Riley safe.
104
And then, anger's idea is pretty ironic and funny.
105
We buy flowers for the losing team!
106
What?
107
I can't always be the rage guy.
108
No, no, I liked it!
109
Rage is intense, out -of -control anger.
110
So anger is basically saying he can't always be the angry one.
111
Hilarious.
112
You'll often hear this word in phrases like road rage, getting furious while driving.
113
Or he flew into a rage, he suddenly became extremely angry.
114
Check out these examples.
115
And this is nail polish.
116
You paint your nails with nail polish.
117
Moving on, anxiety finally realizes what is happening.
118
Let's watch.
119
Really?
120
Nothing?
121
Sorry, Joy.
122
Yeah, I see you, 87.
123
A cat!
124
A little off -topic, but I'll take it. Who else?
125
Come on!
126
What if Riley is better than Val, and then Val hates her?
127
Or what if Riley is better than Val, and Val respects her?
128
Yeah!
129
There we go.
130
What if Riley is so bad, she has to give up hockey forever?
131
What if Riley does so well that the coach cries and the Olympics call and she rallies a weary nation to victory?
132
Joy, reality is also a thing Anxiety?
133
He's got you all chained to death, trying nightmares, but you don't have to take it anymore Pencils down, projections off Yeah!
134
It's enough, it's enough
135
My projections
136
So things quickly spun into hilarious chaos, and there's a lot for us to learn there.
137
When you give it your best shot, you try as hard as you possibly can at something, even if you're not sure you'll succeed.
138
Listen to these examples.
139
Next, anxiety explains this is their strategy to make Riley happy.
140
If you ask people, who's with me?
141
You're asking who agrees with you and is ready to support.
142
We actually explained a similar use of this in our recent lesson with the Chronicles of Narnia.
143
Check it out.
144
Interestingly, in English we may use this expression to ask if someone understands you.
145
When I'm teaching a class and I notice a student seems a little confused, I might ask them, are you with me?
146
But in the clip we just watched, Peter is using a second meaning of this expression.
147
Are you on my side?
148
Will you fight alongside me?
149
It's a way to ask for loyalty and commitment.
150
Are you with me?
151
Are you with me, lions?
152
Alright, now we see some imagination workers start helping Joy.
153
Really?
154
Nothing?
155
Sorry, Joy.
156
Yeah, I see you, 87.
157
A cat!
158
A little off -topic, but I'll take it. Who else?
159
Come on!
160
If something is off -topic, it's not related to what you're actually supposed to be talking about or focusing on.
161
So all the other drawings so far were about Riley succeeding or failing at hockey camp.
162
But 87 drew something cute, but random, a cat.
163
You can also say the opposite, on topic.
164
If you get distracted, your teacher might say, let's stay on topic.
165
Check out these examples.
166
Don't get off topic, Tony.
167
You said folks are talking.
168
What are they talking about?
169
Congressman, let's get back on topic, please.
170
I'd love to.
171
And what was that topic we were talking about?
172
And listen to how they said this number.
173
Yeah, I see you, 87.
174
So when we have a T between two vowel sounds, it becomes a soft D, like in butter or cat and dog.
175
This is called an American T.
176
The same thing happens with numbers, like 80.
177
Not 87, but 87.
178
87. We heard another example from anxiety earlier.
179
81?
180
That is not helping.
181
All right, I recommend that you pay attention to pronunciation when you hear different numbers.
182
For now, listen to those lines again and repeat.
183
What if Riley is so bad, she has to give up hockey forever!
184
To give something up means to stop doing it completely, usually because it's too hard or you've lost hope.
185
Anxiety is imagining an unlikely but terrible possibility.
186
Now, I don't want you to give up on your English learning.
187
A reason a lot of English learners like you get discouraged or lose motivation is because when you get into a conversation,
188
words that you know you've learned won't come to your head.
189
Now this may be because you're learning the words but you aren't studying them.
190
So you hear them and poof, just hours or even minutes later you no longer have access to them.
191
The good news is that there are learners who actually internalize the new words and use them naturally when speaking.
192
Do you want to learn their secret?
193
So they keep these new words they've learned active in their brains by using flashcards.
194
If you want to see how that works, it's really simple.
195
Just click the link in the description
196
and we'll give you for free a set of flashcards for this lesson with Inside Out on our app.
197
Now the reason this works is that we put the science and the right technology behind it.
198
Basically, the app knows the exact expressions you've learned from all lessons and just when you're about to forget one,
199
we bring it back for you to practice.
200
And you really only need 10 to 15 minutes daily for more natural English speaking.
201
Super easy.
202
So click the link to try the RealLife app right now and start getting a bit more fluent every day.
203
Now, joy is much more hopeful than anxiety.
204
What if Riley does so well that the coach cries and the Olympics call and she rallies a weary nation to victory?
205
If Riley rallies a weary nation, do you think that means she makes everyone feel tired and give up, brings people together and inspires them,
206
confuses everyone with her performance.
207
Awesome!
208
To rally people means to bring them together and inspire them towards a common goal, especially when things look difficult.
209
Well, I know how stressful mounting a rebellion can be.
210
Rallying the troops, planning the attacks, so I brought you a little something to ease the tension.
211
But if our ancestors were able to build this anthill, we can certainly rally together to build this bird!
212
And wary is just a poetic way of saying tired or exhausted.
213
If you work a 60 -hour work week, you might feel wary by the time the weekend comes.
214
Here's another example.
215
Have you been harboring gypsies?
216
Our home is always open to the weary traveler.
217
Have mercy, my lord.
218
I grow weary of waiting.
219
Where is Yolnir?
220
Actually, this line is referencing a real moment from sports history.
221
And the Olympics call, and she rallies a weary nation to victory!
222
In 1980, the U .S.
223
Olympic hockey team, made up of college kids, pulled off or achieved an incredible win over the much more prepared
224
Soviet team, and the whole country, tired and discouraged at the time, rallied behind them.
225
It even became a movie, Miracle.
226
Discuss points out that this might be a lot to hope for.
227
Joy, reality is also a thing.
228
When someone says that something is also a thing, they're pointing out that something exists and shouldn't be ignored.
229
Especially to bring someone back down to earth.
230
You could use this in a ton of situations.
231
Like I know you want ice cream every night, but a balanced diet is also a thing.
232
And finally, anger creates the perfect rallying cry against anxiety.
233
When you say you don't have to take it anymore, you're saying that you refuse to keep accepting something bad.
234
If you have a partner who does not appreciate everything you do for them, or an over demanding boss,
235
you might say, I'm not going to take this anymore.
236
We have a great bit of connected speech here too.
237
Listen again.
238
Fuck, you don't have to take it anymore!
239
Pretty hard to catch every word, right?
240
First, oftentimes when we have an N and T together, we just pronounce the N.
241
Like in 20. Or internet.
242
Here we hear don't.
243
Not don't.
244
Have and to usually morph to have to. Have to.
245
And we have another American T here in it.
246
Take it anymore.
247
Take it anymore.
248
Let's put that all together.
249
You don't have to take it anymore.
250
You don't have to take it anymore.
251
But you don't have to take it anymore.
252
But you don't have to take it anymore.
253
And let's watch that chaotic ending again.
254
Pencils down.
255
Projections off.
256
Yeah.
257
It's in there.
258
We need to be prepared.
259
So I just wanted to point out a cool cultural reference here.
260
This is likely an Easter egg of Apple's famous 1984
261
Super Bowl commercial, where a woman sprints in and hurls a sledgehammer at a giant
262
Big Brother screen to shatter it, symbolizing breaking free from mind control and conformity.
263
Nice work today, but we're not done yet.
264
Now comes the most important part of the lesson.
265
You'll test everything you learn by watching the scene again without subtitles and answering some quiz questions.
266
Give it your best shot!
267
We need to help Riley prepare.
268
Now is the time to send up every possible thing that could go wrong.
269
We are looking to the future.
270
Every possible mistake she could make.
271
Riley misses an open goal.
272
Coach writes about her notebook.
273
Yes!
274
More like that!
275
Oh no, they're using
276
Riley's imagination against her.
277
If someone uses your words against you, what are they doing?
278
Repeating your words to compliment you?
279
Turning your own words into a weapon against you?
280
Translating your words into another language?
281
Val and her friends like us now, but if we don't make the team, will they like us tomorrow?
282
We can't let her do this to Riley.
283
We have to shut this down.
284
Love it, 37.
285
Riley hits the puck into her own net.
286
Why are you drawing a hippo?
287
I'm not.
288
I'm drawing Riley.
289
Joy, you forgot her ponytail.
290
Oh, I love her ponytail.
291
Yes.
292
Riley scores and everyone hugs her?
293
81. That is not helping.
294
Riley paints her nails to match her jersey.
295
Everybody copies her and she is so cool.
296
Riley wears knee pads.
297
We buy flowers for the losing team.
298
Recall the name of each of these images.
299
Why would I know?
300
Ugh!
301
What is going on?
302
Who is sending all of this positive...
303
Joy, I know you're in there.
304
Well, I think we gave it our best shot.
305
Don't listen to anxiety.
306
She's using these horrible projections to change Riley.
307
Joy, I'm doing this for you.
308
This is all so
309
Riley can be happier.
310
If you wanted her to be happy, then you'd stop hurting her.
311
If you want to ask for someone's support, you can say, Give it your best shot.
312
Can you keep on topic?
313
Are you with me?
314
Who's with me?
315
Really?
316
Nothing?
317
Sorry, Joy.
318
Yeah, I see you, 87.
319
A cat!
320
A little off topic, but I'll take it. Who else?
321
Come on!
322
What if Riley is better than Val, and then Val hates her?
323
Or what if Riley is better than Val, and Val respects her?
324
Yeah!
325
There we go.
326
What if Riley is so bad, she has to give up hockey forever?
327
What if Riley does so well that the coach cries?
328
And the Olympics call, and she rallies a weary nation to victory!
329
Uh, Joy, reality is also a thing.
330
What does it mean when someone says a topic is also a thing?
331
It shouldn't be ignored.
332
It's not important at all.
333
It's the only thing that matters.
334
No!
335
Anxiety?
336
He's got you all chained to death, drawing nightmares!
337
Which of these means that you refuse to keep putting up with something?
338
You don't have to take it anymore?
339
You have to take it anymore? you should take it easy.
340

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.
