1
Last week, I went to a bank in the United States.
2
I needed to take money from my account.
3
Simple, right?
4
But when I spoke to the cashier,
5
I said, Give me all the money from my account.
6
The cashier stopped.
7
The people behind me stopped.
8
And suddenly, everything felt very serious.
9
I smiled, but inside I was thinking,
10
Did I say something wrong?
11
In this lesson, you will learn real bank English people use every day
12
and how one sentence can sound very dangerous if you say it the wrong way.
13
Now repeat this sentence with me.
14
I think I misunderstood.
15
Good.
16
Let me tell you what happened that day at the bank.
17
Last week, I needed some cash because I had to pay back a friend.
18
She paid for lunch the day before,
19
and I promised her, I'll pay you back tomorrow.
20
It was not a lot of money,
21
but I wanted to keep my promise.
22
Repeat.
23
I'll pay you back tomorrow.
24
Good.
25
The next morning, I went to an ATM near my apartment.
26
I felt calm because I did not need to speak to anyone.
27
I only had to use the machine.
28
Card in, pin number, money out.
29
Simple.
30
At least, that is what I thought.
31
I put my card into the ATM and chose English on the screen.
32
I saw several options.
33
Balance, deposit, transfer, and cash.
34
I knew one of them was for taking money out,
35
but I did not stop to remember the exact word.
36
I just followed the screen.
37
Then the machine made a sound.
38
I waited for the cash,
39
but a message appeared on the screen.
40
No cash available.
41
I blinked.
42
No cash?
43
In an ATM?
44
Then I understood.
45
The ATM ran out of cash.
46
Repeat, the ATM ran out of cash.
47
Excellent, run out of means there is no more left.
48
The ATM had no more cash inside and now I had to make a decision.
49
There was a bank branch right next to the ATM.
50
The machine was easy, but inside the bank I had to speak to a real person in English.
51
I looked through the glass doors.
52
There was a teller at the counter,
53
and there were people waiting in line.
54
Suddenly, I felt nervous.
55
I asked myself, what is the correct way to say this in English?
56
I knew give me money sounded strange.
57
I knew take money sounded too direct.
58
But the correct word disappeared from my mind.
59
Repeat.
60
The word disappeared from my mind.
61
Good!
62
I took a deep breath,
63
opened the door, and walked inside the bank.
64
I did not know it yet,
65
but the ATM was not the real problem.
66
I walked inside the bank and joined the line.
67
There were only three people in front of me,
68
but somehow the line felt very long.
69
I looked at the teller behind the counter.
70
She was smiling and helping another customer,
71
but I still felt nervous.
72
Speaking to a machine was easy.
73
Speaking to a real person was different.
74
I looked at my phone and opened my banking app.
75
Yes, I had money in my account.
76
Not a lot, but enough to pay back my friend.
77
Repeat.
78
I have enough money in my account.
79
Good.
80
Then, I practiced quietly in my mind.
81
I need money from my account.
82
No, that sounded strange.
83
I want to take money.
84
No, that sounded too direct.
85
I want to remove money.
86
No, definitely not.
87
The line moved forward.
88
Now there was only one person in front of me.
89
My heart started beating faster.
90
The man behind me sighed loudly.
91
Maybe he was in a hurry.
92
Maybe he was just tired.
93
But now I felt even more pressure.
94
Finally, the teller looked at me and said, Next, please?
95
I stepped forward and smiled.
96
Hi, she said kindly.
97
How can I help you today?
98
This was my moment.
99
I opened my mouth, and the correct word disappeared again.
100
So I smiled with full confidence and said,
101
I need you to give me all the money from my account.
102
The teller stopped moving.
103
Her smile disappeared for one second.
104
The man behind me stopped sighing.
105
The bank suddenly felt very quiet.
106
Repeat.
107
Give me all the money from my account.
108
Good.
109
But be careful.
110
That sentence sounds too strong.
111
The teller looked at me carefully and said, I'm sorry.
112
What do you mean?
113
I felt my face getting warm.
114
I tried to explain.
115
No, no. I mean, it is my money.
116
The teller blinked.
117
Yes, I understand.
118
That did not help.
119
I pointed to my debit card.
120
I have money here, I said.
121
And I want to take it.
122
The man behind me whispered,
123
Do not hold up the line.
124
Hold up the line.
125
That means to delay everyone behind you.
126
Repeat.
127
Sorry for holding up the line.
128
Very good.
129
Now I was embarrassed.
130
I was not trying to rob the bank.
131
I was just trying to get $20.
132
But somehow, my English made the situation sound very serious.
133
The teller looked at me kindly and said,
134
Do you mean you would like to withdraw some money?
135
Withdraw!
136
There it was!
137
The word I needed!
138
I nodded quickly.
139
Yes, yes, exactly.
140
I would like to withdraw some money.
141
Repeat, I would like to withdraw some money.
142
Excellent!
143
The teller smiled again.
144
No problem, she said.
145
We can help you with that.
146
I smiled too, but inside I was thinking,
147
please, let this moment end quickly.
148
But of course, it did not end there.
149
The teller smiled and pulled a small form from under the counter.
150
Okay, she said.
151
You just need to fill out this form.
152
Fill out.
153
That means to complete a form with your information.
154
Repeat.
155
I need to fill out this form.
156
Good.
157
She handed me the paper and a pen.
158
I looked at the form.
159
Name, account number, amount, signature, simple.
160
But after what I had just said,
161
even a simple form felt difficult.
162
I looked at the line that said, amount.
163
The teller asked, how much would you like to withdraw?
164
Withdraw.
165
Now I knew the word.
166
I smiled carefully and said, $20, please.
167
She looked at me.
168
Just $20?
169
I nodded.
170
Yes, just $20.
171
The man behind me made a small sound.
172
Not a laugh.
173
Not exactly, but close.
174
I felt my face getting warm again.
175
Repeat.
176
Just $20.
177
Good.
178
The teller smiled kindly.
179
That is perfectly fine, she said.
180
I looked at the form again and wrote, $20.
181
Then I signed my name.
182
The teller looked at my ID.
183
She checked the account.
184
Then she asked, Is this for anything special?
185
I wanted to explain quickly.
186
My friend paid for lunch yesterday, I said.
187
I need to pay her back.
188
Pay back?
189
That means to return money you owe someone.
190
Repeat.
191
I need to pay her back.
192
Excellent.
193
The teller nodded.
194
That is nice of you.
195
I smiled.
196
Yes, I promised her.
197
Then I added, I am almost broke,
198
but I keep my promises.
199
The teller laughed softly.
200
Broke.
201
That means you have very little money.
202
Repeat.
203
I am almost broke.
204
Good.
205
The man behind me laughed too.
206
This time it did not feel bad.

このレッスンについて

このレッスンでは、アメリカの銀行での会話を通じて、英語での実用的なフレーズやボキャブラリーを学びます。特に、ATMを使用する際や、カシエに話しかける際の重要なフレーズに焦点を当てます。このレッスンは、英語の発音を良くすることを目的としており、実際の会話の中で使える表現を習得するのに役立ちます。英語スピーキング練習を強化するための具体的なシーンを体験しましょう。

重要なボキャブラリーとフレーズ

練習のヒント

この動画のスピードとトーンに従って、shadow speech(シャドースピーク)を行うことが大切です。カシエやATMとの対話は、実際の会話を模倣する良い機会です。ゆっくりとしたスピードでリピートし、自分が使ったフレーズが正しく発音されているかを確認しましょう。特に「run out of cash」や「I’ll pay you back tomorrow.」のような日常会話で頻繁に使われるフレーズは、何度も繰り返すことで身につきます。IELTS スピーキング対策を考慮に入れつつ、自分のペースで練習してください。実際の会話を意識した練習が、英語スピーキング力向上につながります。

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
