Welcome to the English Beginner Zone.

Hello everyone.

Today we are going to visit Tony and Diana's first fancy dinner.

Mastering restaurant manners.

You will hear a simple story between Tony, Diana, staff.

I will speak slowly, so don't worry.

Before we start, I have a question for you.

Please listen carefully.

Here is today's question.

Which wine is good with fish?

The answer is in the story.

Try to listen and find it.

You can write your answer in the comments in English.

This will help you improve your English faster.

Alright, are you ready?

Let's start the video.

Look at those bright lights.

The restaurant is beautiful.

It is very grand.

I feel a little bit fancy today.

My grandmother told me a secret about this place.

Can you guess it?

A secret?

Is there a hidden room or a special food?

No, it is about the way we eat.

It is like a secret code with silver.

Everyone here looks so professional.

I hope I don't make a mistake.

Don't worry.

We will learn together.

It is our first time here.

Look, there is a menu outside.

Let's check it.

Oh, they have fish and steak.

I am so hungry now.

The prices are high.

Is it worth it, Diana?

Yes, it is for a special night.

The food here is the best in town.

Okay, let's go.

I am ready to see the inside.

There is the host.

She looks very polite.

Wow, this lobby is so tall.

Look at those lights!

Good evening.

Welcome to our restaurant.

How can I help you?

Hello.

We would like a table for two, please.

Do you have a reservation for this evening?

A reservation?

What does that mean exactly?

It means you call before you come to save a table.

No, we don't have one.

Is it too busy today?

Let me see.

We have many people, but one table is free.

That is lucky.

I was worried we would have to wait.

Please follow me.

I will show you to your seat.

The walls are covered in art.

This place is like a museum.

Listen to the music.

It is very soft and romantic.

Here is your table.

It has a very nice view of the garden.

Here you go, Diana.

I learned this in a movie.

Thank you, Tony.

You are very polite today.

There are so many things on this table.

What is this cloth?

This is a napkin.

You put it on your lap to stay clean.

Okay, on my lap.

Like this?

I feel so formal.

Look at that small bowl.

Do you know what it is for?

Is it a very small soup?

Or maybe for drinking?

No, it is for washing your fingers after you eat.

It's a finger bowl.

Really?

That is very strange.

Washing hands at the table?

Here are your menus.

I will give you a moment to look.

This menu feels heavy.

It has gold edges.

Let's see.

We should pick an appetizer first.

Appetizer.

That is a long word.

What does it mean?

It is a small dish before the big meal.

Like a warm-up for your stomach.

100

Oh, I like soup.

101

The tomato soup sounds good.

102

I will try the fresh salad.

103

I want something light.

104

And for the main dish?

105

Should I get the steak?

106

The steak looks very big.

107

Do you think you can finish it?

108

I am very hungry.

109

I think I can eat a whole cow.

110

Remember the secret I told you?

111

We will need it soon.

112

Is it about which fork to use?

113

There are three here.

114

Shh.

115

Wait until the food comes.

116

It is more fun that way.

117

Are you ready to order or do you need more time?

118

We are ready.

119

Can we have some water first, please?

120

Would you like still water or sparkling water with bubbles?

121

Bubbles?

122

That sounds fancy.

123

Let's try sparkling water.

124

Yes, sparkling water is perfect for a celebration.

125

Brilliant choice.

126

And for your appetizers?

127

I would like the tomato soup, please.

128

It looks delicious.

129

And the garden salad for me.

130

No onions, please.

131

No onions, of course.

132

I have noted that down.

133

For the main dish, I want the large steak.

134

Medium cooked, please.

135

Medium.

136

So a little pink in the middle.

137

Is that right?

138

Yes, that is exactly how I like it.

139

Not too red.

140

I will have the grilled fish with a side of lemon.

141

Would you like fries, rice, or mashed potatoes with that?

142

Mashed potatoes for me.

143

They are so soft and buttery.

144

I will take the steamed rice.

145

It is healthy.

146

Thank you.

147

I will bring your drinks and appetizers soon.

148

Now we wait.

149

The restaurant is getting very busy.

150

Look at that man.

151

He is holding the knife in a special way.

152

Yes, you hold the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left.

153

Left hand for the fork, right hand for the knife.

154

I got it.

155

You're sparkling water.

156

Be careful, it is very cold.

157

Wow, the bubbles are dancing on my tongue.

158

It's funny.

159

It is very fresh.

160

It cleans your mouth for the food.

161

Your soup and your salad.

162

Enjoy your appetizers.

163

This soup looks like a painting.

164

It smells like fresh tomatoes.

165

And my salad is so colorful.

166

No onions.

167

Perfect.

168

Okay, Diana, which fork do I use for the soup?

169

You use the spoon for the soup, silly.

170

Not a fork.

171

Oh, right.

172

My mistake.

173

I was looking at the forks too much.

174

Here is the secret.

175

Always start from the outside and move in.

176

Outside to inside.

177

That is the secret code.

178

I see.

179

And with the soup, do I push the spoon away from me?

180

Yes, away from you.

181

It keeps the soup from splashing on your shirt.

182

Like this, slow and steady.

183

My blue shirt is safe.

184

And I use this small fork for my salad because it is the first course.

185

Mmm.

186

This soup is so creamy and warm.

187

I love it.

188

The vegetables are very crispy.

189

I can hear the crunch.

190

It is 7.15.

191

We have plenty of time for dinner.

192

Yes, a fancy dinner should last one or two hours.

193

My bowl is empty.

194

I finished every drop of soup.

195

When you finish, put your silverware together.

196

It tells the staff.

197

Like a secret signal.

198

I am learning so much today, Diana.

199

Was everything delicious?

200

I will bring your main courses now.

201

Here comes the big food.

202

I can smell the steak from here.

203

Here is your medium steak and mashed potatoes, sir.

204

And the grilled fish with lemon for the lady.

205

Wow, it looks even better than the menu pictures.

206

This knife is very sharp.

207

It is perfect for the steak.

208

Wait, before we eat, remember the fork rule.

209

Right.

210

I used the outside spoon.

211

Now I use the middle fork.

212

Exactly.

213

You are a natural at this, Tony.

214

It is very soft.

215

The knife goes through like butter.

216

Oh my, the flavor is so strong and delicious.

217

My fish is very light, and the lemon makes it sour and fresh.

218

The rice is very fluffy, not sticky at all.

219

And these potatoes are so smooth.

220

I want 40 plates of this.

221

40 plates?

222

You will be like a balloon.

223

Everything is perfect.

224

This was a great idea, Diana.

225

To our first fancy dinner.

226

Cheers!

227

Diana, I see people drinking different wines why it's about matching

228

red wine is strong like your meat white wine is light

229

so it goes well with fish wrong with strong light with light

230

that is easy to remember yes so white wine is best for fish don't forget that is everything to your satisfaction?

231

How is the steak?

232

It is the best steak in my life.

233

Very tender and soft.

234

The fish is excellent too.

235

Thank you for the recommendation.

236

Excuse me, can we have some extra napkins just in case?

237

Of course, I will bring more napkins right away.

238

You said the word tender.

239

What does it mean for food?

240

It means it is very soft.

241

It is easy to cut and easy to eat.

242

Tender.

243

I like this word.

244

This steak is very tender.

245

This salt shaker is so small and silver.

246

Everything is tiny here.

247

And there is the pepper.

248

They are like a little team.

249

Look, even the plates have a brand name on the bottom.

250

The curtains are made of velvet.

251

It is a very rich place.

252

I feel like a prince.

253

Do I look like a prince, Diana?

254

A prince with mashed potatoes on his chin?

255

Maybe.

256

Oops.

257

My royal napkin will save me.

258

I think I have room for something sweet now.

259

Dessert.

260

I love chocolate cake.

261

Let's see the menu.

262

Here is our dessert selection.

263

We have cake, fruit, and ice cream.

264

Double chocolate.

265

That is the only choice for me.

266

I want something light.

267

The fruit plate, please.

268

Excellent.

269

I will bring them in five minutes.

270

Now I know.

271

This tiny fork on the inside is for the cake.

272

Correct.

273

You solved the mystery of the three forks.

274

I am the master of the forks.

275

I feel so smart.

276

Here is your double chocolate cake.

277

And your fruit plate.

278

Look at the colors.

279

It looks so healthy and sweet.

280

Oh, wow.

281

This is very sweet.

282

It is almost too much.

283

Do you want to try a little bit, Diana?

284

It is very heavy.

285

It is delicious, but I am glad I have my fruit.

286

It is lighter.

287

More water for you?

288

It helps with the sweetness of the cake.

289

Yes, thank you.

290

You are very helpful and fast.

291

Remember, always say please and thank you to the staff.

292

Good manners make the food taste even better, I think.

293

Look, when people finish their dessert, they ask for the check.

294

The check?

295

That means the bill?

296

The total price?

297

Yes.

298

In a fancy place, you don't go to the counter.

299

They bring it here.

300

I have my card ready.

301

This was my treat for you.

302

That is very kind of you, Tony.

303

Thank you for this dinner.

304

Excuse me?

305

May we have the check, please?

306

Certainly.

307

I will be right back with your bill.

308

Here you are.

309

No rush at all.

310

Let's see.

311

Two appetizers, two main dishes, two desserts.

312

Diana, what is this tip line for?

313

Do I add more money?

314

Yes.

315

A tip is a gift for the staff because they did a good job.

316

How much should I give?

317

10%?

318

20%?

319

Usually 15% or 20%.

320

She was very nice, so 20% is good.

321

Okay, 20%.

322

She deserves it for explaining the water.

323

Done.

324

Now I am a real adult who knows how to dine out.

325

This was so much better than our usual fast food, wasn't it?

326

Yes, fast food is quick, but this feels.. special.

327

Fast food is for when you are busy.

328

Fancy food is for when you want to talk.

329

I think I like the slow way better.

330

I learned more about you, too.

331

And you solved my grandmother's secret code of the forks.

332

Wait, was the secret really just outside to inside?

333

No. The real secret is that being polite makes everyone happy.

334

Here is your card and your receipt, sir.

335

Thank you very much.

336

Thank you for your very kind tip.

337

Have a wonderful night.

338

We are finished.

339

Let's go for a walk in the garden.

340

Look, I leave my napkin on the left of my plate.

341

That is the final rule.

342

I feel so full.

343

I think I will sleep very well tonight.

344

Goodbye, big lights.

345

See you next time.

346

The air feels so fresh after the warm restaurant.

347

Look, someone else is sitting at our table now.

348

I bet they are wondering about the three forks, too.

349

Should I tell them the outside-in secret?

350

No, let them discover it.

351

It is part of the fun.

352

Reservation, appetizer, main course, dessert.

353

I learned many words.

354

And tender, crispy, sparkling, and tip.

355

And most importantly, white wine goes with fish.

356

I hope our friends watching remembered that, too.

357

Let's sit here for a minute.

358

My stomach is very happy.

359

The stars are very bright tonight, just like the chandeliers.

360

I realized something today.

361

Fancy places are not scary.

362

Oh?

363

Why did you think they were scary before?

364

But everyone makes mistakes, even the staff sometimes.

365

You're right.

366

They forgot your no-onions rule at first.

367

Exactly.

368

But they fixed it politely.

369

That is what matters.

370

Next time I will walk in with my head held high.

371

Where should we go next?

372

A French restaurant?

373

Italian?

374

Italian.

375

I want to learn how to eat spaghetti with a spoon.

376

That is another big lesson for another day.

377

I think I am an expert now.

378

I can teach my brother.

379

I will tell him, Listen, kid.

380

Outside to inside.

381

That's the law.

382

You will be a very good teacher, Tony.

383

We are almost home.

384

The night went by so fast.

385

It was a night I will never forget.

386

Our first fancy dinner.

387

Wait.

388

I have a small surprise.

389

The staff gave me this.

390

A small piece of chocolate for the road.

391

Mmm, it is dark chocolate.

392

My favorite.

393

A sweet ending to a sweet night.

394

Learning a new language is like learning to eat at a fancy place.

395

How do you mean?

396

Is it about the forks?

397

No. It is scary at first, but once you know the rules, it's fun.

398

Ah, and the more you practice, the easier it becomes.

399

Exactly.

400

Just like we practiced using our forks today.

401

I want to practice more English tomorrow, maybe at the library?

402

That is a great idea.

403

We can find a book about Italy.

404

And then we find the best spaghetti in the world.

405

Good night, Tony.

406

Thank you for being a perfect gentleman.

407

Good night, Diana.

408

See you at the library.

409

What a wonderful, fancy day.

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。
