Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Mr. English Channel,
2
where learning English is easy and fun.
3
I'm Emily.
4
Hey, Emily.
5
It is so great to see you today.
6
I am really happy to talk to our amazing listeners again.
7
Me too, Paul.
8
Well, today we have a very special and useful topic for our friends.
9
Oh, really?
10
What are we talking about today, Emily?
11
We are talking about the past.
12
Specifically, we want to answer the question,
13
What did you do yesterday?
14
Ah, that is a classic question.
15
We use it every single day when we talk to friends.
16
Exactly.
17
It is the best way to start a natural conversation in English.
18
I agree completely.
19
So, Emily, let me ask you first.
20
What did you do yesterday?
21
Well, yesterday was a busy day for me.
22
In the morning, I woke up early at 6 o'clock.
23
Wow, 6 o'clock.
24
That is very early.
25
What did you do next?
26
First, I made a hot cup of coffee.
27
Then I cooked a delicious breakfast for myself.
28
That sounds wonderful.
29
What did you eat for breakfast?
30
I ate some eggs and toast.
31
It was very simple, but it was good.
32
Nice.
33
You used two great past tense verbs there, made and ate.
34
Yes, exactly.
35
They are irregular verbs, so they change their form completely in the past.
36
That is a great point.
37
For example, today I eat, but yesterday I ate.
38
Brilliant!
39
See?
40
It is very simple when you use it in a real story.
41
It really is.
42
So, what did you do after breakfast, Emily?
43
After breakfast, I walked to the beautiful park near my house.
44
The weather was perfect.
45
Oh, I love that park.
46
Did you walk alone or with a friend?
47
I walked alone, but I saw many happy people there.
48
I also listened to some beautiful music.
49
That sounds so relaxing.
50
Walked and listened are regular verbs because they end in ED.
51
Yes, you're so right.
52
We just add ED to the end of regular verbs.
53
It is a great rule to remember.
54
So how long did you stay at the park?
55
I stayed there for about one hour.
56
Then I walked back home because I had some work to do.
57
Work on a yesterday?
58
You are always working so hard, Emily.
59
Well, it was just some light cleaning and organizing.
60
I cleaned my kitchen and washed the dishes.
61
Ah, excellent.
62
Cleaned and washed are also regular verbs.
63
Yes, they are.
64
It felt really good to have a clean house.
65
Now, I am curious about your afternoon.
66
What did you do after you cleaned the kitchen?
67
In the afternoon, I visited my friend Sarah.
68
We drank tea and talked for hours.
69
Wow, that sounds like a wonderful afternoon.
70
Sarah is very nice.
71
She really is.
72
We talked about our families and our plans for the weekend.
73
Did you talk in English or another language?
74
Of course we talked in English, of course.
75
It was great practice for both of us.
76
That is awesome.
77
Now, Paul, it is your turn.
78
Tell us about your day yesterday.
79
Was it busy too?
80
Well, my yesterday was a little different from yours.
81
It was much more relaxed.
82
Oh, tell us more.
83
I want to hear all about it.
84
In the morning, I did not wake up early.
85
I stayed in bed until 9 o'clock.
86
Wow, 9 o'clock.
87
That's a late start, Paul.
88
Yes, it was fantastic.
89
I really needed some extra sleep.
90
That is fair.
91
So what did you do when you finally got out of bed?
92
I did not make coffee because I prefer tea.
93
So I drank a large cup of green tea.
94
Oh, green tea is very healthy.
95
Did you cook breakfast too?
96
No, I did not cook.
97
I just ate a fresh banana and some yogurt.
98
That is a very quick and healthy breakfast.
99
I like it.
100
Thanks.
101
After that, I read a chapter of my new book.
102
Oh, interesting.
103
What kind of book are you reading right now?
104
It is a mystery book about a detective in London.
105
It is very exciting.
106
Wow, I love mystery books.
107
You used the verb read there, which is interesting.
108
Yes, the spelling is exactly the same
109
but the pronunciation changes today I read yesterday I read
110
that is a tricky one for beginners
111
but a great example good job thanks Emily after reading I
112
decided to do some exercise in my living room oh really did you lift weights or do some yoga?
113
I did some simple yoga stretches for 30 minutes.
114
It helped my back feel great.
115
Yoga is so good for the body.
116
I should do that more often, too.
117
You should.
118
It gives you so much energy for the rest of the day.
119
So, what did you do for lunch yesterday, Paul?
120
For lunch, I ordered some food from my favorite local Italian restaurant.
121
Oh, yum!
122
What did you order from them?
123
I ordered a delicious plate of pasta with tomato sauce.
124
It arrived very fast.
125
That sounds amazing.
126
Did you eat it all?
127
Yes, I did.
128
It was so delicious I could not stop eating.
129
I don't blame you at all.
130
Italian food is the best.
131
It really is.
132
So what did you do in the afternoon, Emily?
133
Wait, Paul, we're still talking about your day.
134
What did you do after lunch?
135
Ah, right.
136
After lunch, I watched a very funny movie on television.
137
Oh, nice.
138
Did you laugh a lot during the movie?
139
Yes, I laughed so much.
140
It was a great comedy from the 90s.
141
Comedies are perfect for a relaxing afternoon at home.
142
Exactly.
143
After the movie ended, I called my brother on the phone.
144
Oh, how is your brother doing?
145
Did you talk for a long time?
146
He is doing great.
147
We talked for about 20 minutes because he was at work.
148
It is always nice to connect with family.
149
You used called and talked perfectly there.
150
Thank you, Emily.
151
It's easy when you practice every day.

158
Now, Paul, before we continue with our evening stories,
159
I have some incredible news for our listeners.
160
Oh, wow!
161
What is the big news, Emily?
162
I am so curious.
163
Remember what we said in yesterday's video about our new Mr. English Telegram community?
164
Oh, yes!
165
I am so excited about it.
166
It is going to help our students meet and practice English together.
167
Exactly!
168
can ask questions and help each other in English,
169
which is amazing for learning.
170
Yes, it is.
171
And many people asked us when we are launching it.
172
Do you have an update?
173
Well, guess what?
174
We are releasing access for the first group of people today.
175
Wow, today?
176
That is incredible news.
177
How will the rollout work?
178
We want to build a strong community,
179
so we're letting people join slowly to keep it organized but everyone will get in soon.
180
That makes a lot of sense.
181
And what about the Mr. English AI feature?
182
Oh, yes.
183
The Mr. English AI will be there too,
184
so everyone can practice conversation anytime they want.
185
That is amazing.
186
Where can our friends find the link to join?
187
We'll make a post right here on YouTube very soon with the links and all the information.
188
Perfect.
189
Listeners, please comment below if you like this idea and tell us who is going to join.
190
Yes, tell us who is excited to participate.
191
We want to read all your comments.
192
This is truly awesome, Emily.
193
But now, let's go back to our yesterday stories.
194
Yes, let's do it.
195
We need to talk about what we did last night.
196
Okay, Emily, what did you do yesterday evening?
197
Yesterday evening, I cooked dinner for my family.
198
I made a big pot of soup.
199
Oh, soup is perfect for the evening.
200
Was it chicken soup or vegetable soup?
201
It was a chicken and vegetable soup.
202
My family loved it and ate everything.
203
That sounds so cozy and warm.
204
Did you watch television after dinner?
205
No, I did not watch TV.
206
Instead, I listened to an interesting podcast about history.
207
Oh, history.
208
That sounds very intellectual, Emily.
209
Well, I like to learn new things when I relax.
210
It was very interesting.
211
That is great.
212
Then, what time did you go to bed?
213
I went to bed at 10 o'clock and I slept like a baby all night.
214
Wonderful!
215
Slept is another excellent irregular past tense verb.
216
Yes, the base form is sleep
217
but the past form is slept perfect now let me tell
218
you about my evening yesterday yes paul what did you do
219
last night did you go out no i did not go out i stayed home
220
and invited a friend over for dinner oh nice did you
221
cook something special for your friend actually we did not cook we ordered some delicious hamburgers
222
and french fries Wow you really loved ordering food yesterday Paul
223
yes I did yesterday was my lazy day for cooking and
224
that is okay it is totally okay sometimes we all need
225
a break from the kitchen exactly we ate the hamburgers
226
and then we played a fun video game together oh a video game Who won the game,
227
you or your friend?
228
Well, my friend won the first game,
229
which was a bit stressful.
230
Oh no!
231
Did you lose the second game too?
232
No. Fortunately, I won the second game,
233
so we were both very happy.
234
That is great!
235
It is always nice to have a friendly competition.
236
Yes, it was a lot of fun.
237
My friend left my house at around 9 o'clock.
238
And what did you do after your friend left? friend left.
239
I brushed my teeth, put on my pajamas,
240
and went straight to bed.
241
Excellent!
242
You used the regular verb brushed and the irregular verb went.
243
Yes!
244
It is very easy to practice when you break down your day like that.
245
Let's look at some short and long ways to answer this question for our listeners.
246
That is a great idea.
247
If someone asks, what did you do yesterday,
248
what is a short answer?
249
A short answer can be,
250
I went to work, and then I relaxed at home.
251
Perfect.
252
Short, clear, and very easy to understand.
253
And what is a longer, more detailed version, Paul?
254
A longer version is, Yesterday morning,
255
I cleaned my room, and then in the afternoon,
256
I met my friend for lunch.
257
Wait, Paul.
258
Did you say I clean my room for yesterday?
259
Ah, you caught me, Emily.
260
I made a mistake.
261
Yes.
262
Remember, we must say I cleaned my room with the ED sound.
263
Yes, exactly.
264
Thank you for correcting me, Emily.
265
I cleaned my room.
266
Mistakes are completely normal when we are learning.
267
Even native speakers make them sometimes.
268
That is so true.
269
It is how we learn and get better every day.
270
Now, let's talk about negative sentences in the past tense.
271
How do we make them?
272
We use the word did not,
273
or the short version, didn't,
274
followed by the normal verb.
275
Yes.
276
For example, I didn't watch TV yesterday.
277
We do not change the main verb.
278
Exactly.
279
We don't say, I didn't watched,
280
we say, I didn't watch.
281
Perfect explanation, Paul.
282
Let's give another example for our friends.
283
Sure.
284
Yesterday, I didn't go to the supermarket because I had food at home.
285
Excellent!
286
I didn't go is correct.
287
The word didn't already shows it is the past.
288
What about asking questions in the past tense, Emily?
289
How do we do that?
290
We start the question with the word did.
291
For example, did you watch the game yesterday?
292
Yes, and just like the negative form,
293
the main verb stays in the normal present form.
294
Exactly.
295
We say, did you watch, not did you watched.
296
Let's try another one.
297
Emily, did you study Spanish yesterday?
298
No, I didn't study Spanish yesterday,
299
but I did study a little bit of French.
300
Oh, wow.
301
French is a beautiful language.
302
Good job.
303
Thank you, Paul.
304
Learning languages is my favorite hobby.
305
Let me ask you another question.
306
Did you buy anything online yesterday?
307
No, I didn't buy anything online yesterday.
308
I tried to save my money.
309
That is very smart of you.
310
Saving money is always a good idea.
311
Yes, it is.
312
Now, Paul, let me ask you a question.
313
Did you drink coffee yesterday?
314
No, I didn't drink coffee yesterday.
315
As I said before, I only drank green tea.
316
Ah, yes, you drank green tea in the morning.
317
I remember now.
318
Did you listen to any good music yesterday, Emily?
319
Yes, I did.
320
I listened to some beautiful jazz music while I was cooking dinner.
321
Oh, jazz music is perfect for cooking.
322
It makes the kitchen feel like a restaurant.
323
It really does.
324
It makes cooking much more fun for me.
325
Did your family help you cook the dinner yesterday?
326
No, they didn't help me cook,
327
but they helped me clean the table after dinner.
328
Well, that is still very helpful.
329
Teamwork makes the dream work.
330
Yes, exactly.
331
I was very happy with their help.
332
Let's think about another situation.
333
What if yesterday was a rainy day?
334
If it was rainy, we could say,
335
yesterday it rained all day, so I stayed inside.
336
That is a very common situation.
337
Rained and stayed are both regular verbs.
338
What if you had a bad day yesterday?
339
How can you describe that?
340
You could say, Yesterday was a difficult day.
341
I lost my keys and I missed my bus.
342
Oh no, that sounds like a terrible day.
343
Lost and missed are good past tense verbs.
344
Yes.
345
Lost is irregular from lose and missed is regular from miss.
346
It is amazing how many past tense verbs we use in just a few simple sentences.
347
It really is.
348
That is why practicing this topic is so important for our listeners.
349
What about a very busy day at work?
350
How would you say that, Emily?
351
You can say, yesterday I answered 50 emails,
352
attended three meetings, and finished my big project.
353
Wow, that is an incredibly productive day.
354
Answered, attended, and finished are all regular.
355
Yes, and notice how we can just connect them with commas to make a nice story.
356
That is a great tip.
357
Connecting verbs helps the conversation flow more naturally.
358
Paul, what did you do with your telephone yesterday?
359
Did you use it a lot?
360
I didn't use it too much.
361
I checked my messages in the morning and then I put it away.
362
That is very healthy.
363
Sometimes we spend too much time looking at screens.
364
I agree.
365
It felt good to look at the real world instead of a screen all day.
366
Definitely.
367
Yesterday, I also spent some time in my garden.
368
Oh, really?
369
What did you do in your garden, Emily?
370
I watered my plants and checked on my small tomatoes.
371
They are growing so fast.
372
Wow.
373
Fresh tomatoes from the garden.
374
That is amazing.
375
Yes, I love gardening.
376
Watered and checked are regular verbs too.
377
You have a very active and healthy lifestyle, Emily.
378
I need to be more like you.
379
Oh, thank you, Paul.
380
But your day sounded very relaxing and nice, too.
381
It was.
382
We both had great days, just in different ways.
383
Let's ask our listeners another question to practice.
384
Friends, did you study English yesterday?
385
I hope the answer is yes.
386
But if the answer is no, that is okay.
387
Because you are studying now.
388
Exactly.
389
Every small step is important on this learning journey.
390
Emily, did you see any good movies or shows yesterday?
391
No, I didn't watch any shows yesterday.
392
I preferred to read my history book and relax.
393
That is nice.
394
Reading is a great way to wind down before sleep.
395
It really is.
396
It helps my mind relax after a busy day.
397
What about your friends?
398
Did you text anyone yesterday evening?
399
Yes.
400
I texted my sister to say goodnight.
401
She lives in a different city.
402
Oh, that is very sweet.
403
Texted is a modern regular verb that we use all the time now.
404
Yes, it is.
405
Today I text.
406
Yesterday I texted.
407
Perfect.
408
It is funny how language changes with technology.
409
It really does.
410
New words become past tense verbs very quickly.
411
Well, Emily, we talked a lot about our days yesterday.
412
It was a lot of fun.
413
It really was, Paul.
414
I love sharing these stories with you and our listeners.
415
Me too.
416
It is the best way to practice grammar without getting bored by rules.
417
Yes.
418
Learning naturally through stories is the secret to success.

文脈と背景
このビデオでは、EmilyとPaulが昨日の出来事について会話をしています。彼らは、日常的なコミュニケーションの中で非常に役立つ質問「昨日は何をしましたか？」というテーマに焦点を当てています。この質問は、友人との自然な会話を始めるための最適な方法です。
日常会話のためのトップ5フレーズ
- What did you do yesterday?（昨日は何をしましたか？）
- I woke up early at 6 o'clock.（私は6時に早起きしました。）
- I made a hot cup of coffee.（私は熱いコーヒーを作りました。）
- I walked to the beautiful park.（私は美しい公園に歩いて行きました。）
- It was very simple, but it was good.（とてもシンプルでしたが、おいしかったです。）
ステップバイステップ・シャドーイングガイド
このビデオの言語難易度に取り組むための効果的な方法は、シャドーイング技術を使うことです。シャドーイングは、他の人の話す声を同時に真似する練習方法であり、shadowspeaksという方法としても知られています。以下は、効果的なシャドーイングのステップです：
- ビデオを視聴する：まず、会話を一度視聴し、内容を理解しましょう。
- 重要なフレーズを選ぶ：上記の「トップ5フレーズ」を参考にして、よく使うフレーズに注目しましょう。
- 音声を再生してシャドーイング：再生中の音声に合わせて、自分の声でフレーズを繰り返します。最初はゆっくりとしたペースで始め、徐々に速くしていきましょう。
- 録音して振り返る：自分の声を録音し、ネイティブスピーカーと比較してみましょう。どの部分がうまくできているのか、どこが改善点なのかを見つけることができます。
- IELTS スピーキング対策を取り入れる：特に、IELTSなどのスピーキングテストに向けた準備をしている場合、この練習法が非常に役立つでしょう。
このようにして、shadow speechを通じて日常英会話のスキルを向上させることが可能です。YouTubeで英語学習しながら練習することで、よりリラックスして会話ができるようになるでしょう。
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。
