Hi everyone, and welcome back to the Chill English Channel.
2
This is the place where you can relax,
3
listen, and learn English in a natural and easy way.
4
And before we start, please,
5
please, please, subscribe and like this podcast if you enjoy learning with us.

It really helps us grow and lets us bring you more fun English lessons.
7
Yes, don't forget to subscribe and hit like.
8
Now, today we have a fun and useful topic that you can use in many daily conversations,
9
talking about your hobbies.
10
Exactly.
11
Hobbies are things we enjoy doing in our free time.
12
They are not work, not homework,
13
not something we must do,
14
but something we want to do.
15
They bring us joy and help us relax.
16
And the great thing is,
17
when you talk about hobbies,
18
you can connect with people easily.
19
For example, if you say,
20
I like football, and the other person also likes football,
21
you already have something to talk about.
22
That's how simple it can be to start a conversation.
23
Yes, it's a friendly way to share something about yourself.
24
So today, we'll give you useful words and phrases, plus real examples.
25
By the end, you'll know how to answer the question,
26
what are your hobbies, with confidence.
27
Let's begin.
28
Jake, what hobbies do you have?
29
Hmm.
30
I think my biggest hobby is playing the guitar.
31
I play both acoustic and electric guitar.
32
Music helps me express my feelings.
33
I also enjoy hiking in nature.
34
On weekends, I sometimes go for long walks in the mountains.
35
And one more.
36
I really like cooking new recipes.
37
That's amazing.
38
Playing the guitar is a cool skill.
39
Hiking sounds very healthy, and cooking is useful because you can eat delicious food.
40
You really have many hobbies.
41
Thanks.
42
And what about you, Sophia?
43
What are your hobbies?
44
Well, I have a few.
45
My favorite hobby is painting.
46
I usually paint with watercolors,
47
and it makes me feel relaxed and creative.
48
I also enjoy gardening.
49
Taking care of plants and flowers makes me feel peaceful.
50
And, of course, I love reading novels in English.
51
Wow, that's wonderful.
52
Painting and gardening are very creative hobbies.
53
They help you use your imagination and make something beautiful.
54
Reading in English is also a perfect hobby because you can improve your language skills while enjoying a story.
55
True.
56
And I think hobbies are important because they make us happy.
57
When you do something you love, you feel less stressed.
58
Also, hobbies help us use our free time in a positive way.
59
Instead of wasting hours, you can create something,
60
learn something, or improve your skills.
61
That's right.
62
And hobbies can help you meet new people.
63
For example, if you join a football team,
64
a dance class, or even a book club,
65
you can make friends who enjoy the same things.
66
Yes.
67
And hobbies can even teach you about yourself.
68
When I started painting, I learned that I'm more patient than I thought.
69
I discovered that I can focus for a long time when I really enjoy something.
70
That's a really good point.
71
For me, hiking teaches me to keep going even when I feel tired.
72
It's like a life lesson.
73
Don't give up too quickly,
74
even if the path is hard.
75
Exactly.
76
So now, for our listeners, let's make this practical.
77
How can someone talk about their hobbies in English?
78
The simplest way is to use my hobby is or I like.
79
For example, my hobby is swimming or I like swimming.
80
Very easy and clear.
81
Yes, and you can also say I enjoy or I love.
82
For example, I enjoy cooking or I love reading.
83
These are natural and friendly phrases.
84
To give more detail, you can add when or how often you do your hobby.
85
For example, I play the guitar every evening.
86
Or, I go hiking twice a month.
87
Exactly.
88
And don't forget, you can also explain why you enjoy your hobby.
89
For example, I love gardening because it helps me relax,
90
or I enjoy reading because it helps me learn new things.
91
Great.
92
Let's try a short example.
93
Sophia, ask me about my hobby.
94
Sure.
95
Jake, what's your favorite hobby?
96
My favorite hobby is playing the guitar.
97
I play almost every day because it helps me express my emotions.
98
When I play music, I feel calm and happy.
99
That's a nice answer.
100
My favorite hobby is painting.
101
I paint on weekends because it makes me creative and peaceful.
102
Perfect.
103
See how simple it is?
104
Our listeners can use these patterns to talk about their own hobbies in English.
105
Alright, everyone.
106
We talked about what hobbies are,
107
why they're important, and how to say simple sentences like,
108
I like swimming, or my hobby is painting.
109
Now we're going to go a little deeper.
110
We'll learn how to ask others about their hobbies,
111
give more details, and keep the conversation going.
112
That's right.
113
Because in real life, it's not only about answering questions,
114
it's also about asking good questions and showing interest in other people's hobbies.
115
That way the conversation doesn't stop after one sentence.
116
Exactly.
117
So let's begin with some simple questions you can ask.
118
For example, you can say, what are your hobbies?
119
That's the most common one.
120
Yes.
121
You can also ask, what do you like to do in your free time?
122
Or what do you usually do on weekends?
123
These questions are all friendly and natural.
124
Right.
125
And when someone answers, don't just say, oh, or nice.
126
You can ask more.
127
For example, if someone says,
128
I like football, you can ask,
129
how often do you play football?
130
Or do you play in a Yes,
131
and if someone says, I love reading,
132
you can ask, what kind of books do you read,
133
or who is your favorite writer?
134
Exactly.
135
Asking follow-up questions shows that you're interested,
136
and it makes the other person want to talk more.
137
That's how conversations grow.
138
Let's practice a short example.
139
Sophia, you tell me about a hobby,
140
and I'll try to ask questions.
141
Sure.
142
I like gardening.
143
Oh, that's nice.
144
What do you usually grow in your garden?
145
I usually grow flowers, like roses and tulips,
146
but I also try to grow vegetables, like tomatoes.
147
Cool.
148
How often do you work in your garden?
149
Almost every day.
150
I water the plants in the morning,
151
and on weekends I spend more time planting and cleaning.
152
That's really interesting.
153
Why do you enjoy gardening?
154
Because it helps me relax.
155
When I see the flowers and plants grow,
156
I feel proud and happy.
157
Perfect.
158
See how the conversation keeps going?
159
You can start with one short answer,
160
and then it grows into a longer and more interesting conversation.
161
Yes, and you can do this with any hobby.
162
Let's try another one.
163
Jake, tell me about one of your hobbies.
164
Okay.
165
I enjoy hiking.
166
Nice!
167
Where do you usually go hiking?
168
I usually go hiking in the mountains near my city.
169
Sometimes I go with friends and sometimes I go alone.
170
And how often do you go?
171
Maybe two times a month, usually on weekends.
172
Why do you like hiking?
173
Because I feel free when I walk in nature.
174
I can breathe fresh air,
175
listen to birds, and see beautiful views.
176
It makes me feel peaceful.
177
That's a wonderful answer.
178
And again, it's very natural English.
179
Listeners, remember this pattern.
180
Say your hobby.
181
Explain how often.
182
Give details.
183
Say why you like it.
184
This is the key to making your answers interesting.
185
Exactly.
186
And don't worry if your answer is not long at first.
187
You can start small, like,
188
I like reading because it's fun.
189
Then, with practice, you can add more details.
190
For example, I like reading.
191
I read every night before bed.
192
My favorite books are adventure stories because they are exciting.
193
That's a great example.
194
You see, little by little,
195
your English grows and your conversations become more natural.
196
Another tip is to listen carefully to the other person's hobby.
197
If they say something you don't know much about,
198
it's okay to ask simple questions like, what is that?
199
Or can you explain it to me?
200
That way you can learn and keep talking.
201
Yes, and people usually enjoy explaining their hobbies because they love what they do.
202
So don't be afraid to ask.
203
It makes the conversation friendly.
204
So let's give our listeners some practice phrases they can use right away.
205
Sophia, let's list some.
206
Okay, here are some useful questions.
207
What are your hobbies?
208
What do you like doing in your free time?
209
How often do you do your hobby?
210
Why do you enjoy it?
211
Do you do it alone or with friends?
212
Perfect.
213
And here are some useful answers.
214
My hobby is cooking.
215
I like playing football.
216
I enjoy watching movies on weekends.
217
I usually play the guitar every evening.
218
I love it because it makes me feel relaxed.
219
Excellent.
220
If our listeners practice these questions and answers,
221
they will feel ready to talk about hobbies in English anytime.
222
Yes, and in the next part,
223
we'll make it even more fun.
224
We'll show you how to compare hobbies,
225
talk about trying new ones,
226
and share opinions about which hobbies are easy or difficult.
227
That's going to be great.
228
So don't go anywhere.
229
Part 3 is coming up next.
230
Welcome back, everyone!
231
Now we'll learn how to compare hobbies,
232
share opinions, and talk about trying new hobbies.
233
This will make your English sound more natural and interesting.
234
Yes, because when people talk about hobbies,
235
they don't just say, I like swimming.
236
They often compare hobbies or give opinions.
237
For example, I think swimming is easier than running.
238
Or, cooking is more relaxing than painting.
239
These sentences make your conversation richer.
240
Exactly.
241
So let's start with comparisons.
242
The easiest way to compare is to use er than.
243
For example, football is more exciting than tennis.
244
Or reading is easier than writing.
245
Right.
246
You can also say not as, as.
247
For example, playing the piano is not as easy as playing the guitar.
248
Or, watching movies is not as active as playing sports.
249
Perfect.
250
Let's try this in a mini-conversation.
251
Sophia, which hobby do you think is easier, painting or gardening?
252
Hmm, I think gardening is easier than painting.
253
because in painting, you need a lot of creativity.
254
But gardening is more about patience and care.
255
Interesting.
256
For me, painting is easier than gardening.
257
When I garden, I don't always know how to make the plants grow.
258
That's funny.
259
Okay, let's try another one.
260
Which is more relaxing, hiking or cooking?
261
For me, hiking is more relaxing than cooking.
262
Because when I hike, I breathe fresh air and enjoy the mountains.
263
Cooking can be fun, but sometimes it's stressful if I make a mistake.
264
I see.
265
For me, cooking is more relaxing than hiking.
266
When I cook, I listen to music and enjoy the smell of the food.
267
Hiking makes me tired sometimes.
268
Great!
269
So, you see, listeners, when you compare hobbies,
270
you can share different opinions,
271
and that makes conversations more interesting.
272
Yes.
273
Now let's talk about sharing opinions.
274
You can start with, I think, or in my opinion.
275
For example, I think reading is the best hobby because it's cheap and easy,
276
or in my opinion, football is more fun than basketball.
277
Exactly.
278
You can also use I prefer.
279
For example, I prefer swimming to running,
280
or I prefer watching movies to reading books.
281
It's a simple way to show your choice.
282
Let's give a short example.
283
Jake, do you prefer cooking or painting?
284
I prefer cooking to painting,
285
because when I cook, I can eat what I make.
286
Painting is fun, but I can't eat the picture.
287
That's true.
288
Okay, I prefer painting to cooking,
289
because I love colors and I feel calm when I paint.
290
cooking is nice, but sometimes it takes too long.
291
Perfect.
292
And now, let's talk about trying new hobbies.
293
You can say, I would like to try.
294
For example, I would like to try dancing.
295
Or, I want to try playing the piano.
296
Yes.
297
And if you already tried something,
298
you can say, I tried.
299
For example, I tried yoga last year,
300
or I tried fishing with my uncle.
301
Let's give some examples.
302
Sophia, is there a hobby you would like to try?
303
Yes, I would like to try photography.
304
I think taking pictures of nature would be amazing.
305
And you, Jake?
306
I would like to try surfing.
307
I love the ocean, and surfing looks exciting,
308
even if it's difficult at first.
309
Nice choices.
310
Now, listeners, remember this.
311
When you talk about hobbies,
312
you don't have to stop at, I like.
313
You can compare hobbies, share your opinion,
314
and talk about new hobbies you want to try.
315
That way, your conversation becomes longer and more fun.
316
Exactly.
317
And before we finish, let's do one final practice conversation for our listeners.
318
Sophia, let's imagine we're meeting for the first time.
319
Good idea!
320
Let's start.
321
Hi, Jake.
322
Nice to meet you.
323
What do you like to do in your free time?
324
Hi, Sophia.
325
Nice to meet you, too.
326
In my free time, I like hiking.
327
I usually go hiking twice a month.
328
I enjoy it because it makes me feel relaxed and healthy.
329
What about you?
330
I like painting.
331
I usually paint on weekends.
332
I love it because it helps me feel creative and calm.
333
That's cool!
334
I think hiking is more exciting than painting,
335
but painting is more relaxing than hiking.
336
Yes, true.
337
And I would like to try hiking one day.
338
It sounds fun.
339
And I would like to try painting.
340
Maybe you can teach me.
341
Sure.
342
And maybe you can take me hiking.
343
Deal!
344
See how simple that was?
345
Listeners, you can do the same.
346
Just use the questions and answers we practiced today.
347
Exactly!
348
And don't forget, practice is the key.
349
The more you talk about your hobbies,
350
the more confident you will become in English.
351
That's right.
352
And before we finish, one last reminder.

文脈と背景
この動画では、趣味について英語で話す方法が紹介されています。趣味は、私たちの自由時間に楽しむものであり、仕事や宿題のように義務ではなく、自分がしたいことです。趣味を話すことで、人々と簡単に繋がることができ、コミュニケーションが自然に生まれます。例えば、サッカーが好きだと言えば、相手もサッカーに興味を持っているかもしれません。このように、趣味について話すことは、友好的に自己紹介をする良い方法です。
日常会話のための5つのフレーズ
- I like football.（私はサッカーが好きです。）
- I enjoy gardening.（私はガーデニングを楽しんでいます。）
- What are your hobbies?（あなたの趣味は何ですか？）
- I also enjoy hiking.（私もハイキングを楽しんでいます。）
- It makes me feel relaxed.（それは私をリラックスさせてくれます。）
これらのフレーズは、日常会話の中で自分の趣味を紹介したり、相手の趣味を尋ねたりする際に非常に役立ちます。特に「あなたの趣味は何ですか？」という質問は、会話を広げるために効果的です。
ステップバイステップシャドーイングガイド
この動画の内容を習得するためには、シャドースピーチ（shadow speech）と呼ばれる学習法が大変有効です。以下のステップに従って、英語スピーキング練習（英語スピーキング練習）のスキルを向上させましょう。
- 動画を視聴する：まず、動画を一度通しで観て、内容を理解します。
- フレーズを覚える：5つのフレーズをメモして、何度も声に出して練習します。
- シャドーイングを行う：動画の再生に合わせて、話者の言葉を繰り返します。これにより、発音やリズムを自然に身につけることができます。
- 自分の趣味を紹介してみる：動画で学んだフレーズを使って、自分の趣味を英語で話してみます。
- フィードバックを受ける：友人や教師に話した内容を聞いてもらい、アドバイスをもらいます。
これらのステップを通じて、YouTubeで英語学習をしながら、IELTSスピーキング対策の準備にも役立てることができます。この方法で、趣味について自然に会話できる自信をつけていきましょう。
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。
