Hi everyone, I'm back with another video for you to practice your English speaking skills with me,
2
you and me.
3
If you don't know me, I'm Kirsty, your British English teacher.
4
And today I have prepared a dialogue between two friends at a restaurant.
5
This is how my speaking videos work.
6
First, you'll listen to a full conversation.
7
Then I will explain the useful expressions and vocabulary from the dialogue.
8
After that, we will practice together.
9
I will say one line from the dialogue, and then you will read the next line as it appears on the screen.
10
This way you get real-life English speaking practice with me and you get to learn new everyday vocabulary at the same time.
11
Are you ready?
12
Hey, it's so good to see you!
13
You too!
14
This place looks nice.
15
Have you been here before?
16
Yeah, once.
17
The food was really good.
18
Great, let's have a look at the menu.
19
I can't decide between the pasta and the grilled chicken.
20
Both sound good but I think I'm going to try the burger.
21
Classic choice.
22
Do you want to share some starters?
23
Yeah, good idea.
24
How about the garlic bread?
25
Perfect.
26
If we both eat it.
27
How about a salad too?
28
Sounds good.
29
What about drinks?
30
I'll have a sparkling water.
31
I think I'll go for a glass of Chardonnay.
32
Alright, so garlic bread and salad to start, then pasta for me and a burger for you.
33
We'll see if we have any room left for dessert at the end.
34
Exactly.
35
I'm starving.
36
Me too.
37
Oh look, here comes the waiter.
38
Ready to order?
39
Yep, absolutely.
40
Let's break down some useful phrases from the dialogue.
41
This place looks nice.
42
Have you been here before?
43
Have you been here before?
44
is a natural way to ask if someone already knows a restaurant, a bar or a cafe.
45
Have you been here before?
46
Classic choice.
47
Do you want to share some starters?
48
Classic choice is a friendly way to say someone has chosen something popular.
49
Exactly.
50
I'm starving.
51
I'm starving is an informal way to say I'm very hungry.
52
It's an exaggeration.
53
Oh look, here comes the waiter.
54
Ready to order?
55
Ready to order?
56
Is what a waiter usually asks
57
or what you can ask the person you are eating with
58
just to make sure you are ready to get the waiter's attention.
59
These are exactly the phrases that native speakers use when eating out
60
so you can use them with confidence
61

62

63

64

65

66
that you can answer you're going to answer with the text that pops up on the screen.

82
Ready to order?
83

84
If you want extra practice, do the conversation again without reading the dialogue so
85
that you have to make up your own answers or so
86
that you have to remember the answers that come up on the screen.
87
Much more difficult.

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。
