1
Hello, hello, hello.
2
Welcome back to Daily English Talk.
3
I'm Lily.
4
And I'm Tom.
5
And if you are new here, welcome.
6
We upload every single day, so come back tomorrow.
7
And the day after.
8
And the day after that.
9
We will always be here, always.
10
Like that neighbor who never leaves.
11
Tom, today we have a really, really important topic, something that every English learner asks about.
12
Ooh, is it grammar?
13
No. Vocabulary?
14
No. Is it how to sound like me?
15
No, Tom.
16
Today we are talking about how to train your brain to think in English.
17
Oh, that is important!
18
when you think in English, speaking becomes so much easier.
19
You stop translating in your head, and the words just come out.
20
Just come out, like a sneeze.
21
A little bit like a sneeze, yes.
22
Okay, before we start, I have a question for you.
23
Ooh, a question!
24
Tom had a very embarrassing moment because he was still translating in his head.
25
He was at a coffee shop and he wanted to say something simple, but his brain was too slow.
26
It was not my best moment.
27
So here is the question: What did Tom try to say at the coffee shop?
28
Was it something about the coffee, the price, or something completely different?
29
I will say nothing.
30
You have to watch.
31
Write your guess in the comments.
32
We will answer at the end of the video.
33
Okay, let's go.
34
Good morning, Tom.
35
You look strange today.
36
Are you okay?
37
I am okay, but something happened to me yesterday.
38
Something embarrassing.
39
Oh no, what happened?
40
I was at a coffee shop.
41
I ordered my coffee.
42
Everything was fine.
43
Then the worker asked me, Would you like anything else?
44
Simple question, right?
45
Yes, very simple.
46
But my brain stopped.
47
I started translating in my head.
48
I was trying to say, "No, thank you, that's all." But the words, They did not come out right.
49
Ow!
50
What did you say?
51
Something came out, but it was not good.
52
Tom, what did you say?
53
You have to wait.
54
Remember the question?
55
That is right.
56
We told you at the beginning, right?
57
We will answer at the end.
58
But the important thing is, Tom could not speak because he was translating in his head.
59
Yes, my brain was too slow, the words got confused, and the worker looked at me like I was from another planet.
60
This happens to everyone, even me!
61
When I first started speaking English, my brain was always translating, always one step behind.
62
Really?
63
You too? Of course!
64
But I have good news.
65
You can train your brain to stop translating, and today, that's exactly what we are going to teach you.
66
Yes, and it works.
67
I know it works.
68
Because now, I do not freeze anymore.
69
Well, mostly.
70
Mostly.
71
Okay, so Tom is learning to think in English.
72
Let's talk about why this is so important.
73
Yes, why is it hard to think in English?
74
Because when we learn a new language, our brain has a habit.
75
It goes, first, think in my language, then translate into English.
76
Exactly what I do.
77
I think in my language, I translate, and then too slow.
78
Exactly.
79
The sentence is gone, the moment is gone, and you feel frustrated. So frustrated.
80
But, good news, you can train your brain, like a muscle.
81
The more you practice thinking in English, the faster and more natural it becomes.
82
Like going to the gym, but for your brain.
83
Exactly.
84
English gym.
85
And today, we have exercises for you.
86
I am ready.
87
My brain is ready.
88
Perfect.
89
Let's start.
90
Exercise number one: talk to yourself in English.
91
Talk to myself?
92
Like, out loud?
93
Yes.
94
When you are alone, at home, in the shower, on the bus, talk in English.
95
Describe what you see.
96
Describe what you are doing.
97
Like what?
98
Like this.
99
You wake up.
100
You say, "I am waking up.
101
I am very tired.
102
I need coffee.
103
Where is the coffee?" This sounds like my real morning.
104
Because it is.
105
Use real situations, real words.
106
Don't say big, fancy sentences.
107
Just simple, natural English.
108
I actually did this.
109
Yesterday, I was washing dishes, and I said, "I am washing the dishes.
110
I hate this.
111
Why do I have so many dishes?" Tom, that is perfect!
112
I know.
113
I have too many dishes.
114
The point is, you were thinking and speaking in English at the same time.
115
No translating.
116
That is the goal.
117
And the dishes are still there, but my English is better.
118
Exercise number two, label your world.
119
Label?
120
Like a sticker?
121
Exactly like a sticker.
122
Take small pieces of paper, write the English word, put it on the object.
123
Every time you see the object, say the word out loud.
124
Oh, I did something like this when I was a child, learning words in school.
125
Yes, and it works for adults too.
126
Your kitchen becomes your classroom.
127
Your bathroom becomes your classroom.
128
My bathroom is my classroom.
129
Interesting.
130
I put sticky notes all over my apartment one time.
131
Window, door, lamp, chair.
132
Did it work?
133
Yes, but my friend came to visit and she thought I was going crazy.
134
She walked in and everything had a label?
135
Everything.
136
Even the coffee machine.
137
She said, Lily, are you okay?
138
That is amazing!
139
But the important thing is, it worked!
140
Now I do not need the labels.
141
The words are just inside my head.
142
Okay, I am putting labels everywhere tomorrow.
143
Exercise number three: When you learn a new word, see the picture.
144
Don't see the translation.
145
What do you mean?
146
Okay, I say the word "apple." What do you see?
147
I see.. a red apple round, maybe shiny.
148
You did not think of the translation first.
149
You saw the apple.
150
Oh, you are right!
151
That is the goal for every word.
152
See the thing.
153
Don't think of the translation.
154
The word dog, see a dog.
155
The word run, see someone running.
156
So my brain connects English directly to the picture, no translation in the middle.
157
Exactly!
158
This is called direct association and it is very powerful.
159
Okay, let me try.
160
The word "chair." What do you see?
161
I see my chair.
162
The one at home.
163
The one with the broken leg that I never fixed.
164
Perfect example, Tom.
165
Ah, I really should fix that chair.
166
Exercise #4: Every morning, before you start your day, spend two minutes thinking about your day in English.
167
Like, planning in English?
168
Yes!
169
Say to yourself, "Today I will go to work.
170
I will have lunch at 12.
171
After work, I will go to the supermarket." Simple sentences.
172
Present tense, future tense.
173
Just your day.
174
Oh, this sounds easy.
175
It is easy.
176
That is the point.
177
Start easy.
178
Small sentences.
179
Short words.
180
Build confidence.
181
I tried this one time, but I got carried away.
182
What happened?
183
I started planning my whole week, then the whole month.
184
Then I was like, in five years I will be fluent in English and I will live near the beach.
185
Tom!
186
I was very motivated at 7 in the morning.
187
That is great motivation.
188
But yes, keep it simple.
189
Two minutes, just today.
190
Two minutes.
191
I can do two minutes.
192
Imagine you were in a cafe.
193
Tom, you are the customer.
194
I love this.
195
I am ready.
196
I'm in character.
197
I am the cafe worker.
198
Ready?
199
Ready.
200
Hi.
201
What would you like?
202
Hello, I would like one coffee please, a big one.
203
Sure.
204
Anything else?
205
Um, do you have cake?
206
Yes, we do.
207
Oh, great.
208
One cake, please.
209
Thank you very much.
210
Perfect.
211
See?
212
No translating, just natural conversation.
213
I did it and I did not freeze.
214
You were great!
215
And remember, that dialogue used very simple words: I would like, do you have, Thank you.
216
That is all you need to start.
217
Simple is good, simple works.
218
Okay, let's do a quick review.
219
Ready?
220
Ready.
221
Exercise 1.
222
Talk to yourself in English, at home, in the shower, anywhere.
223
Exercise 2.
224
Label your world.
225
Sticky notes everywhere.
226
Your home is your classroom.
227
Exercise 3.
228
Think in pictures.
229
See the word, not the translation.
230
And exercise 4.
231
Plan your day in English.
232
Two minutes every morning.
233
Amazing!
234
Tom, you remembered everything.
235
I know!
236
I am very proud of myself right now.
237
And remember, you do not need to be perfect.
238
You just need to practice.
239
Every day, a little bit.
240
Your brain is learning.
241
Your brain is growing.
242
English gym every day.
243
Every day?
244
Now, I have a question for you.
245
Do you already think in English sometimes?
246
Even a little bit?
247
Even one word?
248
Tell us in the comments.
249
Just type, English.
250
Or, not yet, but I will try, if you want to start today.
251
We read every comment.
252
Every single one.
253
Right, Lily?
254
Every single one.
255
Okay, do you remember the question from the beginning?
256
Oh, no. My embarrassing story.
257
What did Tom try to say at the coffee shop?
258
Was it something about the coffee, the price, or something completely different?
259
Okay, I will tell you.
260
I was at the coffee shop.
261
The worker asked, "Would you like anything else?" In my head, I was translating so fast, I wanted to say, "No,
262
thank you, that's all." And what happened?
263
I said, "No, thank you, that is all the thank." Tom!
264
I know, I know.
265
The worker looked at me like I was from another planet.
266
What did you do?
267
like a robot.
268
But that was before I started thinking in English.
269
Now?
270
No thank you, that's all.
271
Easy.
272
Done.
273
No problem.
274
That is the power of practice.
275
Everyone starts somewhere.
276
Even Tom.
277
Even me.
278
The robot coffee man.
279
Thank you so much for watching today!
280
English Gym, every day.

Informazioni su questa lezione
In questa lezione, ci concentreremo su come allenare il cervello a pensare in inglese, un passaggio cruciale per migliorare le tue abilità linguistiche. Imparerai come smettere di tradurre mentalmente e iniziare a esprimerti in modo naturale. Attraverso una serie di esercizi di shadow speech, acquisirai maggiore fluidità e sicurezza nel parlare in inglese. Inoltre, ti forniremo suggerimenti pratici per superare momenti imbarazzanti simili a quelli che possono capitare a chiunque durante l'apprendimento di una nuova lingua.
Vocabolario e frasi chiave
- Think in English - Pensare in inglese
- Stop translating - Smettere di tradurre
- Good morning - Buongiorno
- Would you like anything else? - Vuoi qualcos'altro?
- No, thank you, that's all - No, grazie, è tutto qui
- Embarrassing moment - Momento imbarazzante
Consigli per la pratica
Per migliorare le tue abilità comunicative, il shadowing in inglese è una tecnica estremamente efficace. Ecco alcuni consigli pratici da seguire:
- Ascolta attentamente: Guarda il video e ascolta la conversazione. Presta attenzione al ritmo e alla pronuncia.
- Ripeti subito: Dopo aver ascoltato una frase, prova a ripeterla ad alta voce. Usa la pratica di conversazione in inglese per replicare il tono e l'intonazione.
- Non aver paura degli errori: Se commetti errori, non preoccuparti! Fa parte del processo di apprendimento. Ridi di te stesso, proprio come Tom, e continua a esercitarti.
- Pratica regolarmente: Dedica alcuni minuti ogni giorno alla shadow speak. Questo ti aiuterà a pensare in inglese senza tradurre mentalmente.
- Interagisci con altri: Cerca di praticare con partner di conversazione o amici. Esercitati a rispondere a domande semplici come quelle citate nel video.
Con il tempo e la pratica costante, diventerai sempre più naturale nel tuo parlare e penserai in inglese senza sforzo!
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — un’azione in corso in un momento del passato | was still translating · was trying · was translating |
| Verbo + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — i verbi seguiti dalla forma in -ing | stop translating · started translating · started speaking |
| Futuro con “will” will + verbo — una decisione, una promessa o una previsione | will always be · will say · will answer |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — qualcosa che succede adesso o in questo periodo | are talking · is learning · are doing |
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.
