OK, Mrs Reynolds.
2
Finally!
3
So, these are all your new heart medications, OK?
4
15 minutes to pick boxes off a shelf.
5
I'm sorry, there was just some critical prescription errors.
6
Errors?
7
Well, I think my doctor knows better than an overqualified shopkeeper.
8
Shopkeeper?
9
I studied for five years.
10
I got first-class honours.
11
Wow.
12
Five years.
13
And now you sell lollipops.
14
We've got a two-for-one deal on those at the moment.
15
MUSIC OK, we have a really busy day today, so, Margaret, can you get started on the labelling, please?
16
I've done it.
17
Oh, OK.
18
Can you do yesterday's dispensing, then?
19
I've done it.
20
Cool.
21
I'd better call back my mum, then.
22
I've done it.
23
She said, don't forget to book your moustache wax.
24
Rise and grind, people, come on.
25
Let's get paid.
26
Yeah, let's sell some drugs.
27
Harry, you're late again.
28
It's African time, innit?
29
Can you tell me, do you enjoy it here?
30
Um, it's busy.
31
It is really busy.
32
Cos I'm not just expected to be a pharmacist.
33
I'm a doctor, I'm a therapist, I'm a vet.
34
I even had someone ask me to change their car tyre.
35
I guess you could say they were really sick.
36
It was a joke.
37
Excuse me?
38
Hello.
39
How can I help?
40
Yeah, I'm here for a prescription for a Jus Muhammad.
41
Oh, no!
42
I'm so sorry.
43
Let me help you with that.
44
Oh, my God.
45
You want to start a family?
46
Oh, that's a bit forward.
47
Did my mum send you?
48
Not as a bad thing.
49
She did really well this time.
50
I was just reading off the pamphlet.
51
Oh.
52
Nothing's come through yet, Mr. Mohammed.
53
I guess I'll just come back before five.
54
Mm-hm.
55
And really nice to meet you.
56
It's Lola.
57
That's a beautiful name, Lola.
58
I'll see you later.
59
That was the worst flirting I've ever seen.
60
I still think it's a stupid name.
61
Erectile dysfunction?
62
Oh, well, I pride myself on my people skills.
63
That's why Lola loves having me here.
64
It should still be functioning fine.
65
You see me, eh?
66
I have three children just like that.
67
It's a machine.
68
You know machine gun?
69
In fact, at night, eh, I have to sleep with a taser by my bedside just to calm him down.
70
I don't know what's going on these days.
71
Maybe it's all these tight, tight jeans you're wearing.
72
Anyway, take it.
73
Go, my brother, go!
74
Go and be great!
75
I believe in you!
76
HE LAUGHS Ow!
77
Irreta dysfunction.
78
Idris could be your ticket out of an arranged marriage.
79
You don't want your wedding to be the first time you meet your husband, do you?
80
I'm not going unmarried at first sight, Margaret.
81
And anyways, he's got a yeast infection.
82
A bit of cream will sort that out.
83
You've got a lot in common.
84
He's from Muslim too.
85
Margaret, you know, she's an amazing tech.
86
She's absolutely great.
87
She knows her stuff.
88
But sometimes she knows too much.
89
Margaret, did you tell Mrs Hayes to stop taking her antidepressants?
90
Yes, she doesn't need them anymore.
91
She's doing much better.
92
Her husband's just died.
93
Oh.
94
I don't have a medical degree, but I do know she doesn't need those pills.
95
She needs to get herself out there again.
96
So I prescribed her a new outfit and a subscription to Match.com.
97
Harry?
98
Harry, can you show me how to access old records?
99
Checking on your man Idris.
100
No, I'm just making sure that he doesn't have, um...
101
Chlamydia?
102
No, no clinical interactions.
103
Or 11 recurrent fungal toenails.
104
What?
105
Oh, my God, he's had annual ringworms since he was six.
106
Oh, and check this.
107
I don't think you should be looking at that.
108
His breath is kicking!
109
You need to stop nitpicking.
110
Oh, he doesn't have nits.
111
I agree with Margarita.
112
For the millionth time, it's pronounced Margaret.
113
You deserve to be happy, but you're running out of time.
114
You're becoming like sour milk.
115
I don't get it.
116
Tell me about Harry.
117
Harry came here to work on a summer placement, After he just finished public school, he just...
118
He just never left.
119
Hi, I'm here for the walk-in flu jabs.
120
Ah, sorry, we're doing it for the over-60s today.
121
I'm 46.
122
Ah.
123
Not bad.
124
Harry?
125
Harry?
126
Harry?
127
Yo, why are you working at Pies?
128
Obviously man's out here, man's just trying to make racks for the drill team.
129
You get it?
130
Just, yeah.
131
Sorry, sorry.
132
Mummy, I told you not to call me at work.
133
No, it's not a crack pipe, it's for herbs and it's not even mine, it's Theo's.
134
Why are you looking through my staff?
135
Sorry, man's active anyway.
136
Next question.
137
Amara.
138
Margaret.
139
I assume you're looking for Lola instead of looking for a job.
140
And I assume you're still pretending to be a pharmacist instead of scaring crows on farms.
141
What's wrong with her?
142
Ugh.
143
She reminded me of my probation officer.
144
Anyway...
145
Idris Mohamed, 34 Stivers Road, sales exec, not married, which is a bonus, but not a deal breaker.
146
Wait, wait, wait, where are you getting this information from?
147
Contacts, babe.
148
These days, you gotta creep before you get crept on.
149
Oh, my God, that's him.
150

160
Um...
161

162
I know it comes across very unprofessional, but it's all I've been thinking about for the past six and a half hours.
163
And, look, I completely understand either way, whichever what you say, but I just need...
164
You want to go for dinner?
165

167

169
Um...
170
I don't care about your yeast infection.
171
And I don't care about your fungal toenails either
172
because look at the end of the day you wear socks so no one's going to see them and oh
173
My god your oral hygiene must be perfect.
174
Oh my god.
175
That means we can go out for Chinese.
176
Do you mind Chinese?
177

178
I'm gonna go.
179
What?
180

182
You don't even have my number.

187
So let's hope one day I don't snap.
188
You know, it only takes one extra tablet.
189

190
That was a joke.
191
It was a joke!
192
I'm not actually going to kill anyone.
193
Can you imagine?
194

Lo scenario: una farmacia divertente e realistica
Il video ci porta in una farmacia vibrante, dove il dialogo tra farmacisti e clienti è ricco di situazioni quotidiane: errori di prescrizione, battute spiritose e richieste impreviste (anche cambiare una gomma alla macchina!). Questo contesto è perfetto per imparare l'inglese con YouTube, perché riflette la lingua parlata nella vita reale: colloquiale, veloce e piena di espressioni spontanee. Ecco come sfruttarlo al massimo!
Frasi e collocazioni utili da memorizzare
- "Critical prescription errors": Errori critici di prescrizione. Una collocazione chiave per parlare di problemi con i farmaci.
- "Rise and grind": "Alzati e lavora" (spesso usata per motivare). Un'espressione informale ma molto usata.
- "African time": Un modo scherzoso per dire "tardi" (attenzione: usa con cautela, dipende dal contesto!).
- "Two-for-one deal": Offerta "due per il prezzo di uno". Ideale per parlare di sconti nei negozi.
- "Don't forget to book": Non dimenticare di prenotare. Una frase pratica per gli appuntamenti.
La tua sfida di shadowing: parla come i personaggi!
Il shadowing in inglese è il metodo più veloce per migliorare pronuncia e intonazione. Ecco la tua missione: riproduci il dialogo del video ripetendo ogni frase immediatamente dopo i personaggi, cercando di imitare il tono, la velocità e le pause. Concentrati su frasi come "I guess you could say they were really sick" (una battuta con intonazione ironica) o "It's African time, innit?" (con l'accento colloquiale). Usa il shadow speak per "unirti" alla conversazione: non è solo ripetere, ma "entrare" nel ruolo. Ripeti per 5 minuti al giorno e noterai il progresso! Ricorda: il shadowspeak funziona perché ti fa familiarizzare con la lingua come un madrelingua.
Questo video non è solo divertente: è una mina di risorse per chi vuole parlare inglese con confidenza. Prova la sfida e sentiti parte della farmacia!
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | I've done · I've ever seen |
| Verbo + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — i verbi seguiti dalla forma in -ing | loves having · stop taking · stop nitpicking |
| Consigli con “should” should + verbo — dire che cosa è meglio fare | should still be · should be |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — qualcosa che succede adesso o in questo periodo | you're wearing · I'm not going · I'm just making |
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.
