Susan, just say it once.
2
No. Just one time.
3
No. She's not gonna do it.
4
Come on, just one fuck.
5
Nah, she doesn't want to go to hell.
6
Come on, Susan.
7
I can express myself without that kind of language.
8
Thank you.
9
Come on, we got a bet going.
10
Just one time.
11
What's the bet?
12
Oh, that Ted can get Mom to swear.
13
Oh, wow, so fucking adult.
14
Hey, we're at dinner.
15
Just say shit.
16
Shoot.
17
Just give us the finger.
18
There's your finger.
19
Say Polack.
20
Ted, really?
21
It's not a race.
22
You can say it.
23
Yeah, it's just a bunch of guys.
24
Okay, just eat your supper, fellas.
25
She's not gonna swear, man.
26
I win.
27
Ah, fuck.
28
Pay up.
29
Thank you.
30
Wait, you're not wearing pants.
31
Where'd you get this?
32
Don't you worry about where I'm keeping stuff.
33
I was so fucking hungry.
34
I was so hungry, too.
35
It's so weird.
36
You know what?
37
This is like the perfect food for the perfect night.
38
Yeah, like, who invented food?
39
That guy rocks.
40
Well, if I knew you guys were gonna get so gussied up, I would've made something fancy.
41
No!
42
Ma, this is perfect.
43
This is perfect steak-ums.
44
The perfect steak-ums.
45
It's right here.
46
Just, just feel it.
47
Ah.
48
I can feel your love in this, Ma.
49
I'm so happy you love it so much.
50
Jesus, you guys are acting like it's today's special illegal seafood.
51
It's fine.
52
I think it's delicious, Suze.
53
Can you guys believe that we're just, like, we're sitting here and we're, like, having an experience and experiencing reality all at once?
54
Hey, Susan, Susan, I just want to say, you have found your haircut.
55
What, you think so?
56
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah.
57
You could ride this to 70 and you'd be fine.
58
Well, I just took a picture of Tipper Gore into the salon and I said, now, I know it can't be like that, but try to get it as close as you can, and so...
59
Well, uh...
60
Typical, I should bring in a picture of you.
61
Stop it.
62
This night.
63
Is there a fucking gas leak or something?
64
Everyone, Maddie and I have some news.
65
Oh, man, it finally happened.
66
Look, I'm sure this was a tough decision to make, but there's no sense in postponing the inevitable.
67
You know what?
68
Not every marriage is meant to last forever, and at a certain point, you're just throwing good years after bad.
69
We're going out to dinner.
70
Hey, that's one of my favorite meals.
71
We're gonna go out, we're gonna have a nice romantic evening tomorrow.
72
Just the two of us, just because.
73
And we're gonna have a lovely time.
74
That's right.
75
My wife deserves a night out just for being her.
76
We're gonna have a great meal, and it's gonna be terrific.
77
Jesus, take it easy.
78
What?
79
I'm fucking happy.
80
It's gonna be a great night.
81
You know, I wonder if years from now, we'll find out this was all just one big, long heart attack.
82
Hey, Matty, a Jew, a Polak, and a black guy walk into a bar...
83
My fucking God, really?
84
Hey, watch the language.
85
Hey, tell your stupid truck that.
86
He's telling racist jokes.
87
I'm not racist.
88
The punchline wasn't gonna be about the black guy.
89
It was gonna be about the Jew.
90
And to a lesser extent about the Polak and a little bit about the black guy's penis.
91
See?
92
The point is, none of them knew how deep the water was.
93
Ow!
94
Hey!
95
This is assault!
96
I'm being assaulted here!
97
So much for the non-violent left!
98
It's Christmas Eve.
99
Can't we just have a nice dinner together?
100
Yes, we can.
101
It's a beautiful ham on Susan.
102
Thank you.
103
Yeah, everything looks really great.
104
Thank you, girls.
105
Thank you.
106
You want some of this?
107
Yes, please.
108
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey!
109
What?
110
We gotta say grace.
111
Thank the Lord.
112
You're welcome.
113
Fine.
114
Dennis, would you like to do the honors?
115
Absolutely.
116
Bow your heads.
117
Dear Lord.
118
Yes.
119
Thank you for this food.
120
No problem.
121
And for these blessings.
122
Any time.
123
Make us thankful on it.
124
And may we serve you mashed potatoes.
125
And what the fuck?
126
You wanna say grace?
127
I'd feel like an asshole.
128
Amen.
129
Oh.
130
That was just beautiful, Dennis.
131
Look at all these welfare queens.
132
See?
133
That's the problem with this country.
134
Everybody expects everything handed to them on a silver platter.
135
Hey, guys.
136
Um, can I talk to you about something?
137
You want a tuna sandwich?
138
No, I'm okay.
139
Um...
140
It's about John.
141
Uh...
142
I think he might be on the verge of...
143
Well, I think he's interested in becoming sexually active.
144
What do you mean?
145
Well, I don't really know how I can be clearer than that.
146
Have you guys ever talked to John about sex?
147
Of course not.
148
He's only 16.
149
Talking about sex is rude.
150
So you're going to rely on a gym teacher and a horny teddy bear?
151
I mean, how do you expect him to learn what he needs to know?
152
When you get drafted, they show you a film.
153
Look, I get it can be an awkward conversation, but it's really important.
154
Tony Randall was in it.
155
You're absolutely right, Blair.
156
You know what I'm gonna do?
157
I'm gonna clip an Ask Beth from the Globe, and I'll slide it under his door.
158
Guys, there's nothing shameful about human sexuality.
159
You've never been in a strip club when the lights come on. And neither have I.
160
Maddie, this isn't a joke, okay?
161
He needs to know this stuff.
162
Look!
163
I'll talk to him when the time is right.
164
And I'm telling you, as somebody who knows him really well, it's the right time, okay?
165
I think you're trying to avoid an uncomfortable conversation, and honestly, that's selfish of you.
166
All I'm trying to do is eat my lunch here.
167
Jesus.
168
Your period coming in or something?
169
I...
170
What?
171
Forget it.
172
Coming in?
173
Like it's my fucking adult teeth?
174
Forget I brought it up.
175
Fuck, it sounds like you need the talk, not him.
176
Do you have any idea how a period actually works?
177
I know enough.
178
No one's ever explained it to you, have they?
179
I tried once, but Maddie said it was too close to the holidays.
180
Oh, my God.
181
Aunt Suze, think about your son.
182
All right?
183
Don't you want John to grow up to be a sexually healthy adult?
184
Blair!
185
Language!
186
My parents never talked to me about sex.
187
I figured it all out on my own, and I'm doing just fine.
188
We'll talk to John.
189
Maddie, honey, that's your fourth beer.
190
Yeah, I had a shit day.
191
Yeah, four's like a Boston one.
192
He's okay.
193
I'm sorry your day was hard, honey.
194
Yeah, well, sorry doesn't fix the car.
195
What happened to the car, Dad?
196
Whole rear fender got smashed.
197
Well, how bad is it?
198
It's gonna be at least 400 bucks.
199
Who hid it?
200
I didn't see.
201
But I was parked outside the Hong Kong buffet.
202
So, do the math.
203
I'm sorry.
204
What?
205
I'm just saying.
206
Wow, that is such complete bullshit.
207
Hey, we're at dinner.
208
It's a bullshit stereotype.
209
Tell that to my car.
210
Swear to God, this whole household is so goddamn backward.
211
Ted has used two derogatory terms this afternoon, and then there you go, topping it off with that ignorant comment.
212
I said midget.
213
What was the other one?
214
Yeah, I don't know.
215
You're living in my house with my family, eating our food and drinking our milk.
216
Tough shit if you don't like it.
217
That's just.. that's great.
218
I'm so glad you don't count me as a member of the family, Uncle Matty.
219
Maybe Polak?
220
No, couldn't be that.
221
That one's fine.
222
Claire, you are absolutely a member of this family.
223
Maddie, tell her you're sorry. Of course he won't.
224
Because if he did, he'd be admitting I'm right, which would also be admitting he is a classic Boston racist.
225
I'm not a racist!
226
My favorite movie is Rocky!
227
How the fuck does that make you not racist?
228
Uh, Apollo Creed is in the movie. So? So?
229
He's a black guy who wins against a white guy.
230
Oh, my God.
231
I mean, it's assuming you count Italians as whites, which I mostly do.
232
Of course, you know, they weren't white up until the 1960s.
233
They got a big bump after Korea.
234
And it wasn't so much they got more white, the Cubans got more black, but I was okay with that too.
235
Isn't this the toast that got you kicked out of Ronnie's wedding?
236
Again, I was explaining why it was okay that he married an Italian.
237
Jesus Christ, you are literally proving my point.
238
You are a raging fucking racist.
239
Hey, we're at dinner.
240
Sarah and I are a couple.
241
Called it, Johnny.
242
Motherfucker.
243
Man, I thought we were gonna do this on January 3rd.
244
Wait a minute.
245
You, the two of you?
246
Oh my god.
247
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hey, hey, hey, hey!
248
What the fuck is this?
249
What are you gonna do about it?
250
You're gay?
251
Fluid.
252
What the hell does that mean?
253
It means that I'm attracted to personalities, regardless of their gender.
254
Oh, Jesus Christ.
255
You're attracted to personalities and you picked her?
256
Hey!
257
Oh, fuck you, you've met six people.
258
It's that college!
259
It's that college!
260
Oh my god.
261
Susan, what am I always saying?
262
College turns people gay.
263
College turns people gay!
264
Absolutely right!
265
Out there on the lawn every weekend tossing the frisbee around.
266
How the fuck is frisbee gay?
267
It's a sport where nobody wins!
268
It's only about the fun! So what?
269
And what's this?
270
What's this?
271
Doing this all the time, huh?
272
That's not a man's sport.
273
You might as well be on a balcony waving goodbye to your lover.
274
Making those clap catches like your front row at Elton John.
275
Oh, the clap catch.
276
You have clap catch and your wham-o frisbee.
277
You know why it's called wham-o?
278
You turn around, you bend over to pick up your frisbee and wham-o!
279
Oh, you know what?
280
You wish you were a frisbee, you little shit.
281
It's going really good, Blair.
282
We had a great time on our first date.
283
Even the hospital was fun.
284
Yeah, they're gonna fuck for sure.
285
I mean, unless, you know, the timing's off.
286
What do you mean?
287
Well, I mean, you know, if she's gotta make a period.
288
What?
289
You know, if it's that time of the week.
290
Okay, so what?
291
So what if she gets her period?
292
Well, like, you can't have sex then, right?
293
Like, I heard that if you have sex while a girl's doing a period, then you could go back in time.
294
I think I just went back in time.
295
Does any male in this house actually even fucking know how it works?
296
Well, do you?
297
I do not.
298
I actually have no idea.
299
No. Yeah.
300
I actually was always kind of curious.
301
There's like a little tube, right?
302
Yes.
303
A tampon.
304
Oh, yeah, I know that word.
305
I know that word.
306
Is a crampon also something?
307
A crampon is used for rock climbing.
308
It's got nothing to do with periods.
309
Oh.
310
It's weird that it has the word cramp in there, though, yeah?
311
Two completely different things.
312
But you can see why I thought...
313
Okay, you want to make jokes?
314
You want to fucking learn something.
315
I wasn't making a joke.
316
I didn't know about the rock climbing.
317
God!
318
How's it work?
319
Give me your best guess.
320
You put the tampon inside.
321
Genius.
322
Yes.
323
How?
324
You swallow it.
325
You use the applicator to insert it into the vagina, And then you remove the applicator by pulling it out.
326
And this happens all the time?
327
Once a month for just a few days.
328
Is it shorter in February?
329
You wanna get fucking wet?
330
No, no, no, I'm good, I'm good.
Per chi è questo video?
Questo video è perfetto per gli apprendisti di inglese a livello intermedio o avanzato che vogliono migliorare la pratica di conversazione in inglese e la capacità di capire il linguaggio colloquiale. Ideale per chi vuole esercitarsi con dialoghi spontanei, ricchi di umorismo e situazioni familiari, che riflettono la vita quotidiana vera. Se vuoi imparare a usare espressioni informali e a seguire un flusso di conversazione veloce, questo è il contenuto giusto per te!
Parole e modi di dire da rubare
Il dialogo è pieno di espressioni colloquiali che vale la pena memorizzare. Ecco i più interessanti:
- "Gussied up": Significa "vestito/a in modo elegante" o "fatto/a più presentabile". Ad esempio: "Se sapessi che eri gussied up, avrei preparato un piatto migliore".
- "Steak-ums": Un tipo di carne macinata per hamburger, tipica della cucina americana. Utile per parlare di cibi specifici.
- "Pay up": "Pagare" o "soddisfare una scommessa". Come in: "Hai perso, quindi pay up!".
- "Acting like it's today's special illegal seafood": Un modo ironico per dire che gli altri stanno reagendo in modo eccessivo a qualcosa di normale. Perfetto per l'umorismo colloquiale.
Come fare a pronunciare bene l'accento
Per imitare l'accento dei personaggi, concentra ti sulla shadow speech: ascolta una frase, pausa e ripeterla immediatamente, cercando di copiare l'intonazione e il ritmo. I dialoghi sono veloci e con molte interruzioni, quindi la shadow speak aiuta a migliorare la fluidità. Nota come le parole come "fuck" o "shit" sono pronunciate con un tono informale e spesso abbassato, mentre "Ma" (mamma) ha un accento dolce e familiare. Prova a ripetere le frasi più caotiche, come "I was so fucking hungry" o "Where'd you get this?", cercando di mantenere lo stesso entusiasmo e la stessa velocità. La pratica di conversazione in inglese con metodi come il shadowspeak ti farà sentire più a tuo agio con il linguaggio spontaneo.
Non ti preoccupare se alla fine non riesci a pronunciare tutto perfettamente: l'importante è divertirti e imitare il tono familiare e giocoso del video. La shadow speech è un modo divertente per migliorare, e questo video è la scelta perfetta per esercitarti!
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.
