Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr.
2
English Channel. I am so happy to be here with you today.
3
Hello Emily and hello to all of our friends listening at home or at work. It is a beautiful day for a podcast. It really is Paul. I feel very energetic today. I think it is because I had a very good breakfast. Ah, breakfast is important. I am feeling good, too.
4
Though I am a little bit hungry now that you mentioned food.
5
Oh, no Paul. We just started. You have to wait a little while for lunch.
6
I know, I know, but talking about daily life always makes me think of my routine and that brings us to our topic, right?
7
Yes, exactly. Today we are talking about the words we use every single day. The everyday words.
8
I love this topic. Sometimes we look for very big, difficult words, but the small words are the ones we use the most.
9
That is so true. Think about it. From the moment we wake up, we are surrounded by things that have simple names.
10
Hmm. Let's start there, at the very beginning of the day. What is the first thing you hear, Emily?
11
Oh, I hear my alarm. It is on my phone and it is very loud. It sits on my nightstand next to my bed.
12
Ah, the alarm. I have a love-hate relationship with my alarm. I like to hit the snooze button.
13
Me, too Paul. I hit it at least two times every morning. I just want five more minutes under my warm blanket.
14
Blanket is a good word and pillow, too.
15
My pillow is very soft. I don't want to leave it in the morning.
16
But we must. So I get out of bed and I put on my slippers. My floor is very cold in the morning.
17
Slippers are a must-have. Then I usually go straight to the bathroom. I need to wash my face and brush my teeth.
18
Yes, toothbrush and toothpaste. Those are words I use every single day. I can't start my day without them. Neither can I. And I look in the mirror.
19
Sometimes I look a bit messy in the morning, but the mirror doesn't lie.
20
No, it doesn't. After the bathroom, I go to the kitchen. This is my favorite part of the house. Mine, too. I head straight for the coffee maker or the kettle if I want tea. Do you drink coffee or tea, Emily? I usually start with a big glass of water. Then I make some tea. I love the sound of the water boiling in the kettle.
21
Ah, the kettle. That is a very common word in my house. I use it for tea, for coffee, even for cooking sometimes. And then there is the fridge. I open the fridge and I look for my breakfast.
22
Usually it is eggs or maybe some yogurt.
23
I like cereal, so I need a bowl and a spoon. Bowl, spoon, fork, knife. These are the tools of the kitchen. They are.
24
It is funny how we don't think about these words, but we use them three or four times every day. Exactly. We use them, we wash them in the sink and we put them away in the cupboard. Cupboard is a funny word, isn't it? It's like a board for cups, but we put everything in there.
25
You're right. Language is interesting.
26
So after breakfast, I have to get ready for work. Me, too. I have to find my keys. Paul, I always lose my keys. They are never where I think they are. Oh, I am the same. I look on the table, I look in my bag, I even look in my coat pockets.
27
Keys and wallet. Those are the two things I check for before I walk out the door.
28
Yes. Do I have my phone? Do I have my wallet? Do I have my keys? It is like a little song I sing to myself.
29
I do the exact same thing. Then I grab my bag and I head to the car. Or sometimes I walk to the bus stop.
30
Walking is nice if the weather is good.
31
I like to walk because I see the neighborhood. I see trees and houses.
32
And you see other people. You can say hello and good morning, just like we talked about in our other episode. Yes.
33
If I take the bus, I need my bus pass or some coins. Pass and coins are very useful words.
34
They are. When I get to my office, the first thing I do is sit at my desk. I turn on my computer.
35
Ah, the world of work. Computer, screen, keyboard, mouse. We spend so many hours with these objects.
36
We really do. And the mouse, it's a funny name for a piece of technology, isn't it? It is. I remember when I was a child, a mouse was only a small animal.
37
Now it's something on my desk.
38
True. And then there's the email. I check my inbox every morning. It is usually full of messages.
39
Hmm. Emails can be stressful, especially when there's a deadline. That is a word I hear a lot at work.
40
Ooh, deadline. That word makes me feel a little bit nervous. It means I have to finish my work quickly. Yes, exactly.
41
But it feels so good when the work is done and you can close your laptop.
42

43
Daily, because these are the words we use every day. It shows us that you are practicing your English with us. So Paul, after work, I usually go to the supermarket. I need to buy food for dinner.
44
I go to the supermarket often, too. I always try to make a list, but sometimes I forget it at home. Oh, no. Then you have to remember everything. Milk, bread, apples, pasta. Yes. I walk down the aisles looking for what I need. Isle is a tricky word to spell, but a very common place. It is. And I use a basket if I only need a few things or a cart if I'm buying a lot. I usually end up with a cart because I always see things I want but don't need, like we discussed before.
45
The supermarket is full of temptations.
46
Then I go to the cashier to pay for my groceries. Do you use a credit card or cash, Emily? I usually use my card. It is faster.
47
I use my card, too. But sometimes I have a few coins in my pocket for small things.
48
And don't forget the receipt. I always take the receipt just in case I need to check the prices later. Good idea. Then I carry my bags to the car. Bags is another word we use all the time.
49
Plastic bags, paper bags or reusable bags. I try to use reusable bags. They are better for the environment. I keep them in the trunk of my car. Trunk.
50
That's what we call the back of the car.
51
In some places they call it a boot.
52
English has many names for the same thing. That's true. It can be a little confusing, but trunk and boot are both good words to know. When I get home, I am usually tired. I put my bags on the kitchen counter and I take off my shoes.
53
Ah, taking off your shoes is the best feeling after a long day.
54
I put on my house shoes or my slippers again. Then it is time to cook dinner. I use a pot to boil water for pasta or a pan to fry some vegetables. Pot and pan.
55
Very simple words, but very important for a delicious meal. I also use a timer. I don't want to burn my food. I am not a very good cook, Paul.
56
Don't worry, Emily. Practice makes perfect, even in the kitchen. I hope so.
57
After dinner, I have to wash the dishes.
58
I use a sponge and some dish soap. I have a dishwasher, so I just put everything inside and press a button. It is a very helpful machine. Oh, I am jealous. I have to do mine by hand in the sink, but it is okay. It gives me time to think.
59
That's a nice way to look at it. After the chores are done, it is time to relax on the sofa. Yes, the sofa or the couch.
60
I sit down and I pick up the remote. The remote control, the most important object in the living room when you want to watch a movie. Exactly. I look for something funny to watch. I like comedies. They make me feel happy before I go to sleep. I like documentaries. I like to learn about animals or history.
61
It is very relaxing for me. That sounds interesting. Sometimes I read a book instead of watching TV. I have a small lamp next to my sofa. A book and a lamp.
62
That sounds very cozy, Emily. I like to read in bed. Reading in bed is great, but I usually fall asleep after two pages.
63
Me, too. My eyes get very heavy. I put my book on the nightstand and I turn off the light. But before I sleep, I have to plug in my phone. I need to charge the battery for tomorrow. Charger. That is a word we definitely use every day. Where is my charger? My phone is at 5%.
64
Yes, that is a very modern problem. We didn't say that 20 years ago. No, we didn't. Life changes and our words change, too. But many things stay the same. Like our bed and our pillow. I set my alarm again and the cycle starts over. It is amazing how many words we just used to describe a normal day. It really is. And notice that we didn't use any very difficult grammar. Just simple, real English. That is the secret to feeling confident. You don't need to know every word in the dictionary. No, you just need the words that describe your life. The words for your home, your work, and your hobbies. I think our listeners should try to name the things they see around them today. That is a great idea. If you are sitting in a room, look around. What do you see? Is there a window, a chair, a table, a clock on the wall? Or maybe you are outside. Do you see a car, a bird, a flower, the sun? Every time you name an object in English, you're training your brain to think in English. Yes, and you don't even have to say it out loud. You can just say it in your head. But saying it out loud is good practice for your mouth and your pronunciation. True. Even if you are alone, you can say, "This is my coffee. It is hot. This is my spoon." People might think you are a little bit strange if they hear you, but it works.
65
Just tell them you are practicing with Mr. English Channel. They will understand. Exactly.
66
Emily, I was thinking about my walk this morning. I saw a very beautiful dog in the park. Ooh, I love dogs. Dog, cat, pet, these are words that bring a lot of joy to people. They do. The dog was running after a ball.
67
Ball and run. Such simple words, but they tell a whole story. They do. It's about the connection. When you see someone with a dog, you can say, "What a cute dog." Yes, and that starts a conversation. Maybe you ask, "What is his name?" or "How old is he?" See, we are back to being confident and talking to anyone, all because of a few simple words. It all fits together. Language is a tool for connection. It really is.
68
Paul, I have a question for you. What is one word you use every day that you really like? Hmm.
69
That is a good question.
70
I think I like the word together.
71
Together? Why that word? Because it is a friendly word. We work together, we talk together, and we learn together. It feels positive. Oh, I love that. That is a very beautiful choice. How about you, Emily? What is your favorite everyday word? Hmm. I think I like the word delicious.
72
Because of the food? Yes. When I eat something good, I love to say, "Wow, this is delicious." It makes the cook happy. That is a great word. It shows appreciation. It's much better than just saying, "It is good." Exactly. It has more flavor, just like the food.
73
You are very funny today, Emily. I like your energy. Thank you, Paul. I think it's the tea and the great conversation.
74
Well, we have covered a lot of ground today, from the alarm clock to the delicious dinner. We really have. I hope our listeners feel like they have some new tools for their English journey. I am sure they do. Remember, everyone, don't worry about the big words yet.
75
Focus on the life around you. Plus, your life is the best textbook. Look at your real world and find the English names for it. And if you don't know a word, you can always look it up. That is how we learn. Speaking of learning, I think we are reaching the end of our time for today. Oh, really? Time always goes so fast when we are talking. It does, but we will be back very soon with another episode. I am already looking forward to it. I wonder what we will talk about next time. It's a surprise. You'll have to wait and see.
76
Okay, I like surprises. Before we go, we want to say a big thank you to everyone who listens to our podcast. Yes, thank you so much. Your support means the world to us. We love reading your comments. Seeing where you are from and how you are practicing makes us so happy. It really does. So, don't forget to subscribe to Mr. English Channel. And give this video a big like if you found it helpful. And remember our question from the middle of the episode. Leave a comment with the word daily. Or even better, tell us one thing you do every day and the words you use for it.
77
Yes, like, "I use my brush every day." or "I sit in my favorite chair." We can't wait to see your sentences.
78
It's a great way to practice writing in English.
79
Absolutely.
80
Well, Emily, it's time to go. I think I'm going to go find that delicious lunch now.
81
Go for it, Paul. You earned it. Thanks.
82
Goodbye, everyone. See you in the next one. Bye for now. Keep practicing and have a wonderful day.

Consigli per la Pratica
Per ottenere il massimo da questa lezione, ti suggeriamo di praticare utilizzando la tecnica di shadowing in inglese. Ascolta attentamente il podcast e ripeti le frasi esattamente come le senti, cercando di imitare il ritmo e l'intonazione dei relatori. Puoi farlo prima a velocità normale e poi, se vuoi, rallentare il video o l'audio per migliorare la tua pronuncia inglese. Questo metodo, conosciuto anche come shadowspeaks, è estremamente efficace per apprendere e memorizzare vocaboli utili.
Non dimenticare di riascoltare ogni volta i punti che ti sembrano più difficili. La ripetizione è essenziale quando si tratta di imparare l'inglese con youtube. Annota le nuove parole e frasi in un quaderno e prova a usarle nelle tue conversazioni quotidiane.
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.
