104
We use the word will to ask about the future.
105
Now listen to another question that uses will to ask about the future.
106
Listen carefully.
107
The hotel clerk speaks very fast.
108
And will you want a newspaper in the morning?
109
Here's another question from the clerk.
110
And will you need a map for the city? And here's another one.
111
Will you need a hire car?
112
All these questions are about what Anne will do in the future.
113
They ask about her plans.
114
They ask about what she intends to do or what she is going to do.
115
For example, the question, Will you need a hire car? is asking about the future.
116
About what Anne might need in the next few days.
117
Now listen carefully in our next clip for another use of will to ask about the future.
118
Thank you very much for picking me up.
119
You're very welcome.
120
You'll be all right here?
121
Will you be all right here?
122

124
That's room 309.
125
Enjoy your stay, Ms. Lee.
126
Thank you.
127
I hope I will.
128
Anne replies, I hope I will, to the clerk telling her to enjoy her stay at the hotel.
129
She hopes that in the future she will enjoy staying at the hotel.
130
If you are not asking a question, you use the word will after words such as she.
131
She will need a hire car.
132
I I will need a hire car. And you.
133
You will need a hire car.
134
These sorts of words, I, she, you, are called pronouns.
135
We use will before pronouns in questions.
136
So if I say, will you need a hire car, it's a question.
137
Listen to the difference.
138
Will you need a hire car?
139
You will need a hire car.
140
Can you tell which one of these is a question?
141
Will you enjoy your stay?
142
Or, you will enjoy your stay.
143
Will comes before you, so will you enjoy your stay is a question.
144
It's asking about something in the future.
145
When will comes after you, you are just saying what you think is going to happen.
146
You will enjoy your stay.
147
And here is Michelle.
148
Hello, Michelle.
149
How are you?
150
I'm fine, thanks, Brenton.
151
Hello, everyone.
152
What will we talk about today?
153
We'll talk about how to pay for things and more about the word will.
154
Now, Brenton, you're going on a holiday to Fiji.
155
I am?
156
Let's pretend.
157
I've brought some things here.
158
Ask me if you'll need them and you ask at home too using will I need.
159
Remember, it's hot in Fiji and there's lots of beaches.
160
Alright.
161
Sunscreen.
162
Will I need sunscreen?
163
What do you think?
164

165

166

168
Sunglasses.
169
Will I need sunglasses?
170
Yes, you will.
171
Teddy bear.
172

Yes, he will.
180
Will he need a teddy bear?
181
No, he won't.
182

183
Now, let's look at the scene where Anne pays for her hotel room.
184
How does she pay?
185
And how will you be paying, Ms Lee?
186
Credit card.
187
Anne pays by credit card.
188
How else can you pay for things?
189
Well, you can pay in cash.
190
So we say you pay by credit card or in cash.
191
How else can you pay?
192
Well, you can often pay by EFTPOS.
193
EFTPOS stands for Electronic Funds Transfer at Point of Sale.
194
You use your ATM card for this.
195
And you can pay by cheque.
196
In America, it's spelled differently.
197
So we say you can pay in cash,
198
by credit card, by EFTPOS or by cheque.
199
Practice saying by credit card with the clip.
200
And how will you be paying Ms. Lee?
201
And how will you be paying Ms. Lee? credit card.
202
Did you hear what the clerk called Anne Lee in that clip?
203
Listen again.
204
And how are we paying Ms Lee?
205
Credit card.
206
She used her formal title, Ms Lee.
207
What's your formal title, Brenton?
208
My formal title is Mr Whittle.
209
Men are called Mr. We say Mr. before our last name.
210
My full name is Brenton Whittle, so I'm Mr Whittle.
211
So the Mark Taylor in our film is Mr Taylor.
212
Yes.
213
And are you Ms Crodon?
214
I might be.
215
I might not be.
216
What do you mean?
217
Women can be called Ms, Miss or Mrs. They all sound like each other.
218
Yes, but they're different.
219
You can only be called Miss if you're not married and Mrs if you are married.
220
Are you a Miss or a Mrs?
221
I like to be called Ms. Any woman can be called Ms,
222
just like any man can be called Mr. Practice these after me.
223
Mr Whittle.
224
Mrs Taylor.
225
Miss Taylor.
226
Ms. Lee.
227
Have a go at saying Ms. Lee with the clip.
228
And how are we paying Ms. Lee?
229
Now it's time for a memory test.
230
How are you going to pay? By credit card? By cheque? in cash.
231
And I hope you'll watch our next program.
232
We'll find out how to make appointments and about words to do with time.
233
So until then, see you later.

Cosa imparerai in questa lezione
In questo episodio di "Living English", ti immergerai in un dialogo reale di check-in in hotel, perfetto per esercitarti nella comunicazione pratica in inglese. Oltre a capire come si svolge un check-in, lavorerai sulla pronuncia, l'intonazione e le risposte naturali, soprattutto riguardo a come ringraziare e rispondere a ringraziamenti. È un'ottima occasione per migliorare la tua abilità a parlare in contesti quotidiani, sia per il lavoro che per i viaggi.
Parole e frasi chiave
- Check in: Il processo di registrazione in un hotel ("Would you like to check in?").
- Fill this out: Compilare un modulo ("Could you just fill this out, please?").
- Staying: Rimanere in un luogo per un periodo ("How long will you be staying?").
- Credit card: Carta di credito ("How will you be paying? Credit card").
- You're very welcome: Risposta a un ringraziamento ("Thank you. You're very welcome").
- Don't mention it: Un'altra forma informale di rispondere a un ringraziamento ("Thank you for helping. Don't mention it").
Consigli per la pratica con il shadowing
Il dialogo in questo video ha una velocità naturale ma non troppo veloce, perfetta per iniziare con il shadowing. Ecco come procedere: Ripeti le frasi subito dopo il personaggio, cercando di imitare l'intonazione e il tono. Ad esempio, quando Anne dice "Thank you, Mark, for helping with my heavy bag", nota come la voce si abbassa leggermente alla fine. Usa un shadowing site per ripetere le parti difficili più volte. Se trovi che la velocità è alta, pausa il video e ripeti frase per frase. Ricorda che il shadow speak non è solo about la pronuncia, ma anche about il ritmo: ascolta come i parlanti tengono le pause tra le parole. Con la pratica, il shadowspeak diventerà più naturale, e potrai usare queste frasi in situazioni reali senza sforzo. Prova a registrare la tua voce e confrontala con il video: noterai i progressi in poco tempo!
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | are called · can be called · be called |
| Verbo + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — i verbi seguiti dalla forma in -ing | Practice saying · enjoy staying |
| Possibilità con “might / may” might/may + verbo — qualcosa di possibile ma non certo | might need · might be · might not be |
| Futuro con “will” will + verbo — una decisione, una promessa o una previsione | You'll be · I'll be · will you be |
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.
