Oh yeah!

Today we're learning English with the incredibly talented Zendaya, who you may recognize as MJ from Spider -Man,

Chani from Dune, or as the fierce tennis pro from her newest movie, Challengers.

And in case you're new here, let me tell you how our incredibly powerful method that is trusted by millions of English learners works.

So first, you're going to watch the scene with subtitles.

And if there's anything that you don't understand, don't worry because then we're going to teach you all the most important vocabulary, expressions, and connected speech.

And then finally, you'll watch again without subtitles to challenge your listening.

And every single week, we put out new lessons like this to help you understand fast speaking natives without getting lost,

without missing the jokes, and without subtitles.

So hit that subscribe button and the bell down below, and that way you won't miss a single new lesson.

Let's dive in.

By the way, I know you're getting like incredible reviews for this movie challenges.

I got to ask you a couple questions.

First of all, I know you had a premiere on Tuesday, right, here in L .A.?

Yes, yes.

And I know you have a very big family, and they are often at your things.

Yes.

Were they at this thing?

Yes, they were.

They were, okay.

So you've got some very sexy scenes in the movie.

Yes, yes, we do.

And while I was watching it, I was wondering if your family was going to see those.

Yes, they have.

They did.

And do you warn them beforehand?

Absolutely.

How does it work?

Well, they know it's a rated R movie, okay?

So I was like, you know, walking into this, if you can't handle the heat, get out of the kitchen uh -huh um but

but i forewarned them but it was it was honestly my favorite part of night

because i've seen the movie many times okay i'm you know the producer on the film right yeah that too yeah

but so i know when the scenes are coming right

so i basically when those scenes were happening i just was watching my family

because they were behind me so i just watched them the whole time It was hilarious.

Oh, that's good.

Yeah, because they're starting, and they're like...

And then I slowly get more uncomfortable, and then they're like...

And then my little nieces were back there.

I mean, they're grown -ups, but they're 18.

They literally were like...

It was my favorite part of the night.

Who was most uncomfortable in your family?

Most uncomfortable would...

Yeah, I think it would be my nieces.

Your nieces?

Yeah, they were just like...

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah, right.

Looking at.

Because they're at that age that any of the, even if they're watching Strangers, they might be uncomfortable.

Yeah.

And then they're watching their aunt.

By the way, I know you're getting, like, incredible reviews for this movie, Challengers, which is, I'd like to ask you a couple questions.

First of all, I know you had a premiere on Tuesday, right?

Here in LA?

Yes, yes.

And I know you have a very big family

and they are often at your things yes were they at this thing yes they were okay

so you've got some very sexy scenes in the movie um

and while i was watching it i was wondering

if your family was gonna see i love

that she obviously knows what kind of question he's going to be asking by already asking

if her family was at the premiere yeah yeah she kind of expecting that question already, right?

That's a hot topic.

Exactly.

So there is a lot of connected speech here.

We'll define it.

But let me first ask you.

So Jimmy was referring to her movies as things, right?

He was telling that you have a big family and they're often at your things.

Is it like a common way for natives to change words for a word thing?

Yeah.

And especially in this context, it might refer to any sort of event so you might say

if a friend asks you to go to dinner entirely you

could say oh i can't go i have a thing i have a thing

which is kind of a broad way to say i have an event i have a commitment of some sort

so when he says your things he might not just be referring to the movie

but rather the event of the premiere

that they're often going to her premieres well i gotta ask

you a couple questions what's happening here in a couple of

questions yeah that's a really common collocation as well a couple of questions

that it almost sounds just like one word right it's it's a sort of word chunk

so a couple of questions we reduce the of to a schwa sound uh

and it becomes a couple of questions a couple of questions

a couple of times a couple of times sometimes i i

feel like they even drop off just a couple days a couple questions is it possible

or is it just like off so reduced that we can't hear it

You yeah it probably is so reduced

that it almost you almost feel like it disappears

but it's probably there very very subtly okay

and then i have this tongue twister almost a tongue twister

for all the learners who want to practice this sound yeah

because in this sentence almost every word has a sound let me read it

while i was watching it i was wondering if and

while i was watching it i was wondering

if your family was gonna see so

while i was watching it i was wondering

if can you break down the connected speech here ethan yeah

100

so we have some pronouns there we have the eye

101

which it doesn't exactly reduce but it does link so we have

102

while i we link the sound at the end to the eye

103

so while i while i

104

while i was watching we could reduce even the watching to a watching

105

but i don't believe that that's what they did here

106

but it does connect to the it and i

107

while i was watching it i and we have an american t

108

because the it when we have a t between two vowel sounds like the it

109

and the i it becomes more of a what sounds like a d sound so

110

it i it i and then was wondering if

111

while i was watching it i was wondering if

112

and then again this very common contraction of going to to ghana yeah

113

if your family was gonna see yes they have they did

114

and do you warn them beforehand how does it work well they know it's a rated r movie okay

115

oh there's a lot of going on in very short clip

116

uh first let's start with warn them beforehand what does it

117

mean to warn someone to warn someone means to tell them

118

that there could be possible danger and beforehand beforehand means

119

that it's happening before something else so before the movie beforehand yeah

120

so later in the clip she would use another verb

121

which means the same forward so instead of using warn beforehand you can use forward

122

and do you warn them beforehand how does it work

123

and the connected speech we can see here is we again

124

have one chunk out of three words it being a function word connects to does

125

and we hear how does it work we don't hear the t sound here

126

because it's a stop t at the end so jimmy doesn't pronounce it

127

and we hear how does it work well they know it's

128

a rated r movie okay this is a rated r movie

129

that's some american culture right r i believe it stands for restricted meaning

130

that it's restricted to people who are over 18 in fact

131

if you are under 18

132

and you try to go to an r -rated movie without a parent

133

or a guardian they won't let you in

134

or they're not supposed to let you in so maybe

135

if you look like you're over 18 they might anyway

136

but it can be difficult to go to one of those movies

137

if you're not an adult and we have other ratings

138

that i never even pay attention to them anymore but

139

when i was a kid we would

140

because our parents would let us see some ratings and not others

141

so there's g which is like anyone can watch it it's pretty much disney pg meaning

142

that maybe it's a little bit more

143

so you should be a little bit older child

144

and then there's pg 13 which is basically saying that

145

if you're under 13

146

that it's kind of parents discretion you know you might not want your kids to watch it

147

and the pg stands for parental guidance

148

and then finally as i mentioned r is restricted

149

and it is restricted because of those uh sexual scenes yeah very um yeah

150

and probably language as well so i was like you know walking into this

151

if you can't handle the heat get out the kitchen uh -huh um

152

but but i forewarned them but it was it was honestly my favorite part

153

because i've seen the movie many times okay i'm you know

154

what an expression expression yeah could you repeat what she said here

155

if you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen

156

so much connected to speech

157

but also could you define the meaning what does it mean

158

right it's basically saying don't put yourself in a situation

159

if you know that you can't handle it so maybe

160

if someone went to study abroad

161

and they're complaining how difficult it is to understand all these people speaking English you could say like you know

162

if you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen

163

like you know you're choosing to be here living studying abroad

164

and so on so it comes with the territory

165

which basically means it's it's a part of the experiences having

166

that difficulty of understanding people in another language right yeah and

167

if you can't cope with that right and she's using this

168

because she's saying you know you guys know it's an r -rated movie probably you've seen some trailer

169

or something so you know if you don't think you can handle

170

that then don't come watch it

171

because you know you might be a bit scandalized nice

172

but it was it was honestly my favorite part of night because I've seen the movie.

173

Again, she says part of a night should be part of the night.

174

But I imagine that she reduces off and death so much that we almost like can't hear it.

175

And we have part of night.

176

So the word part ends with T, which is followed by off, right?

177

So it turns into American D sound, part of, part of night.

178

She's not part of the book.

179

And T at the end of night is a silent T then she says

180

that because i've seen the movie could you explain the connective speech here anything yeah we have first of all

181

because which is a reduction of because that natives use all the time

182

and we have i've again i is a function word

183

so we have cuz i cuz i cuz i've

184

and the reduces to the because i've seen the movie i've seen the movie

185

but so i know when the scenes are coming right

186

so i basically when those scenes were happening i just was watching my family

187

because they were behind me

188

so i just watched them the whole time it was hilarious

189

hilarious it is a nice word it means extremely funny

190

when you have a situation that is super funny you can say

191

that it was hilarious

192

and this clip is packed with connected speech ethan can you help me out here i just was watching

193

so i just watched them what's happening here a lot of times with just

194

if it's followed by a consonant like it is here just was we'll drop the t

195

so it's just was and also with watching with these ing endings oftentimes we'll drop the g

196

so she says watching my instead of watching my i just

197

was watching my family i just was watching my family

198

and then she says so So I just watched them the whole time.

199

And again, we have the same thing happen with just.

200

So I just watch them.

201

And we pretty much don't even hear that past tense ending, do we?

202

The watched that normally ends with a T sound, the watch in the past, but it morphs with them.

203

Right.

204

So it's so I would just watch them.

205

So I just watch them.

206

Oh, that's good.

207

They're starting and they're like and then i just leave them slowly get more uncomfortable and then they're like

208

and then my little nieces were back there i mean they're they're grown -ups

209

but they're 18 they're literally were like it was my favorite

210

part of the night who who was most uncomfortable in your

211

family most uncomfortable would yeah i think it would be my

212

my my nieces your nieces yeah they were just like oh yeah oh yeah right looking at

213

because they're at that age that any of the and even

214

if they're watching strangers they might be uncomfortable yeah

215

and then they're watching their aunt people who haven't seen the movie might be curious now to see it i think

216

yeah you have watched it right i did yeah it's a

217

bit exaggerated like i think the highlights of the sex scenes were already in the trailer

218

so when you see the movie it's nothing that's surprising

219

But it still would be quite weird if you're in the movie watching your family react to it.

220

Okay, so she's talking about her relatives, about her family.

221

Who is a niece?

222

A niece is your brother or sister's daughter.

223

So a lot of learners confuse niece and nephew.

224

So niece is for a girl and nephew is for a boy.

225

Exactly.

226

And she also said that they are already grown -ups.

227

Yeah, that's a funny word to use.

228

Grown -ups is adults

229

and we have the phrasal verb to grow up means to pass from being a child to being an adult

230

and this word grown -ups kids will use more so it's kind of funny that she's referring to her

231

her nieces as grown -ups yeah i didn't know that

232

so you would just say adults right not grown -ups grown

233

-ups is like what kids say interesting right another family related uh word is aunt or aunt here, right?

234

Who is your aunt?

235

I think she said aunt, right?

236

She said aunt, but Jimmy says aunt, right?

237

So there's a difference between British American and pronunciation.

238

I would say aunt, but there are parts of the United States that people say aunt, especially the South, I would say.

239

Do you have any aunts, Ethan?

240

I do.

241

I have many aunts, I guess I would say.

242

So, and basically aunt is a sister of either your father or mother, right?

243

and uncle would be the male equivalent exactly because they're at

244

that age that any of it so jimmy says because they're at

245

that age what's happening here so we have at

246

that ends in t and because it's followed by a th it actually assimilates meaning

247

that they just go together so we just pronounce the th at

248

that at that and we have another american t in

249

that that's connecting with age because there's two vowels right that age at that age Because they're at that age.

250

In this next clip we brought today, she's actually talking about press tour.

251

The celebrities go on press tours to promote the movie.

252

How many countries have you been to since February?

253

Oh, man.

254

Like, probably like seven?

255

Wow.

256

And you like traveling around the world quickly like that?

257

You know, I am grateful that I have a job that allows me to travel, allows me to see the world.

258

I wish that I had more time in the place.

259

Because really, you know, when you're doing press tours, you really just see the inside of your hotel.

260

You know, you don't ever really get to go out and see the sights and get to be around people.

261

So that's the only, the downfall.

262

Are you a good packer?

263

Are you a good sleeper?

264

Can you go to sleep on the plane?

265

Are you a good traveler in general?

266

So I used to be able to sleep anywhere.

267

Like, I used to be able to just, like, curl up in a ball and sleep on the flight the whole way.

268

Like, before it even takes off, I'll be knocked out.

269

But these days, I don't know if it's because I'm getting older.

270

You are pretty old.

271

Yeah, you're getting really old.

272

You know, my first time here, I was 16.

273

Yeah, that's right.

274

I know.

275

That's right.

276

You and we were on Dancing with the Stars.

277

And as I remind you, each time I see you, I bet quite a bit of money on you and won quite a bit of money on you.

278

how many countries have you been to since uh since february oh man um like

279

probably like seven wow and you like traveling around the world quickly like

280

that you know i i am grateful that i have a job

281

that allows me to travel allows me to see the world i wish

282

that i had more time what is this number seven ish

283

I love this thing in English this ish ish basically means kind of

284

so if you're saying seven ish you're saying probably about seven

285

but maybe it was six maybe it was eight or maybe

286

if I ask you do you want to go get a

287

bite to eat you might say I could eat something I'm hungry ish

288

if you said that it's like I'm not starving

289

but you know I'll accompany you i'll go have a small bite

290

because i'm not very hungry yeah i also saw

291

that this word can be used separately in an answer like for example

292

if you are asked are you busy you can just answer

293

ish meaning like yeah a little bit busy instead of saying

294

busy ish you just say ish some grammar point here

295

so he's asking how many countries have you been to since february

296

so if we see the word since it's just like a marker

297

that we have present perfect tense here

298

and why do we have present perfect tense here

299

because he's asking about her experience right so since

300

that time since february how many countries have you been to

301

and in the response

302

if you want just to talk about your experience you can use present perfect again i've been to seven countries

303

but if you want to

304

specify

305

when you went there yeah you should use past simple I

306

went to France two months ago for example you know I am grateful

307

that I have a job

308

that allows me to travel allows me to see the world I wish

309

that I had more time can you break down the connected

310

species using here Ethan yeah we have some American teas

311

that I have that I have a job we have the reduction of a to a schwa sound

312

and then we have again with that allows there's another American tea

313

that allows another American tea and reduction of two to ta

314

but then becoming American tea da allows me to travel allows me to travel

315

and very similar in allows me to see the world allows me to see the world

316

and finally she says i wish

317

that i had time we have passed simple in the second part of the wish sentence

318

because it's a conditional it's an imaginary situation i wish

319

that i had time but that's not true she actually doesn't have

320

that time that's why it is a conditional sentence in the place

321

because really you know

322

when you're doing press tours you really just see the inside

323

of your hotel you know you don't ever really get to go out

324

and and see the sights and get to be around people so that's the only the downfall.

325

What is a site or a sightseeing tour, Ethan?

326

Basically, the sites are the things to see in a place.

327

So if you think of Paris, the sites are the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Sacre Coeur, right?

328

All these places that tourists have to go to because they're impressive to see.

329

So you could go on a sightseeing tour, for example, that would take you to all of these places and explain to you their history and importance and so on.

330

But on a press tour, they don't take you.

331

no probably typically not and especially

332

if you're a celebrity you might need to go a bit incognito meaning in a way

333

that you can't be recognized because you can't just go as a normal tourist right yeah

334

so when she said

335

that that's a downfall she uses this word here in the meaning of downside

336

or disadvantage of such press tours right yeah i think she actually used the wrong word That's what I wanted to ask,

337

because when I checked the meaning of the word downfall, it actually meant like a sudden loss of something, like of a progress, of happiness,

338

of fortune, I don't know.

339

But he or she maybe wanted to use downside, right?

340

Not a downfall.

341

Exactly.

342

That's the downside to something, meaning the negative aspect to it.

343

Can you go to sleep on the plane?

344

Are you a good traveler in general?

345

So I used to be able to sleep anywhere.

346

Like, I used to be able to just, like, curl up in a ball and sleep on the flight the whole way.

347

Like, before it even takes off, I'll be knocked out.

348

But these days, I don't know if it's because I'm getting older.

349

So, Zendaya says here that she used to be able to sleep anywhere.

350

The phrasal verb, to be used to do something, means that you had that ability in the past, but you don't have it anymore.

351

so right now we understand that she can't sleep anywhere right

352

and this beautiful phrase curl up in a ball could you

353

define it Ethan for us yeah curl up in a ball is often used for animals like cats

354

and dogs when they go to sleep they curl up in a ball

355

so we'll use that also as an expression to say to be able to make yourself cozy

356

and fall asleep yeah that's exactly what I was thinking of of my cats curled up in a bowl

357

and sleep on the flight the whole way like before it even takes off i'll be knocked out

358

but these days i don't know if it's because i'm getting older

359

she's referring to situation on a plane

360

so in the context of flights to take off means to leave the ground yeah it's about planes

361

and to knock out is a slang word for falling asleep if you know my first time here i was 16.

362

yeah that's right i know that's right you

363

and we were on dancing with the stars

364

and as i remind you each time i see you i bet quite a bit of money on you

365

and won quite a bit of money on you jimmy mentions

366

here this show dancing with the stars have you watched

367

that show what is it about i have a couple times just

368

because my mom is a huge fan I find it immensely cheesy

369

so I don't watch it myself

370

but basically they invite different celebrities to come on in several weeks or maybe a couple months where they're competing with

371

professional dancers like each celebrity has a professional dancer pair

372

and they're competing to win and

373

so that's how we can understand the next part of what

374

Jimmy says they were both on this show at the same

375

time with professional dancers as their partners I don't know

376

if Jimmy made it very long but apparently Zendaya won it

377

and he's saying that he bet money on her meaning

378

that he made a bet that she would win and he won a lot of money on her meaning that

379

because she won he was able to make a lot from

380

that bet that's interesting but when you're saying that the show is cheesy.

381

What do you mean?

382

Cheesy means that it's in bad taste or it's not so refined or of such great quality.

383

Well, I share the same interest with your mom, or at least I used to share.

384

I was watching Dancing with the Stars Ukrainian version.

385

Anyway, I just wanted to comment on quite a bit.

386

So while you were explaining the phrase bet money on someone, you said that he won a lot of money.

387

So that's how our reviewers can understand that quite a bit means a lot.

388

And there is a difference with a bit.

389

If you say that I have a bit of money, you say that I have some amount of money, not a large amount of money.

390

But when you say quite a bit, it means the opposite.

391

It means that you have a lot of money.

392

Right?

393

Yeah.

394

It's a great clarification.

395

now it's time for a test let's watch the clip one

396

more time this time without subtitles i gotta ask you a

397

couple questions first of all i know you had a premiere on tuesday right here yes

398

and i know you have a very big family

399

and they are often at your things yes were they at this thing yes they were okay

400

so you've got some very sexy scenes in the movie um

401

and while i was watching it i was wondering

402

if your family was gonna see yes they have they did

403

and do you warn them beforehand how does it work well they know it's a rated r movie okay

404

so i was like you know walking into this

405

if you can't handle the heat get out the kitchen uh -huh um but but i forewarned them but it was, it was, Honestly, my favorite part of the night, because I've seen the movie many times.

406

Okay.

407

And I'm, you know.

408

You're a producer on the film, right?

409

Yeah. That too.

410

Yeah.

411

But so I know when the scenes are coming, right?

412

So I basically, when those scenes were happening, I just was watching my family, because they were behind me.

413

So I just watched them the whole time.

414

It was hilarious.

415

Oh, you did?

416

Oh, that's good.

417

They're starting, and they're like.

La grammatica di questo video

Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:

Struttura	Nel video
“Used to” used to + verbo — un’abitudine o uno stato passato che non è più vero	used to be
Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso	i've seen · you've seen · haven't seen
Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa	is trusted · is restricted · is followed
Frasi relative who / which + frase — un’informazione in più su una persona o una cosa	Challengers, which is · people who are · because which is

Pronuncia a cui fare attenzione

Chi parla usa 140 contrazioni e forme ridotte, come they're, don't, you're. Pronunciale nella forma breve, così come le senti.

I suoni “sh” e “zh”: schwa /ʃwɑ/, conditional /kənˈdɪʃ.ə.nəl/, collocation /ˌkɑ.ləˈkeɪ.ʃən/, contraction /kənˈtɹækʃ(ə)n/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/
Parole lunghe — attenzione all’accento: uncomfortable /ʌnˈkʌm.fɚ.tə.bl̩/, hilarious /hɪˈlɛə.ɹi.əs/, celebrity /səˈlɛb.ɹɪ.ɾi/, conditional /kənˈdɪʃ.ə.nəl/, assimilate /əˈsɪm.ɪ.leɪt/

I suoni difficili per chi parla italiano:

/h/ — va soffiata, non è muta: beforehand /bɪˈfɔɹhænd/, hilarious /hɪˈlɛə.ɹi.əs/, highlight /ˈhaɪˌlaɪt/
Consonante finale — senza aggiungere una vocale dopo: niece /nis/, aunt /ɑːnt/, beforehand /bɪˈfɔɹhænd/, rat /ɹæt/, clip /klɪp/
/æ/ — più aperta della “e”: beforehand /bɪˈfɔɹhænd/, rat /ɹæt/, traveller /ˈtɹævəlɚ/, dancer /ˈdænsəɹ/, packer /ˈpækɚ/

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.
