Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel,
2
where learning English is easy and fun.
3
I'm Emily.
4
And I'm Paul.
5
It's so good to be here with you today, Emily.
6
It's great to see you too, Paul.
7
How are you doing today?
8
I'm doing really well, thank you for asking.
9
I had a very interesting morning.
10
Oh, really?
11
What happened this morning?
12
Well, I went to that new coffee shop on the corner.
13
You know, the one with the big blue door.
14
Oh, I know that place.
15
I saw it yesterday.
16
Exactly.
17
Well, I tried their special breakfast sandwich.
18
Hmm.
19
And what did you think of it?
20
To be honest, I think it was a little bit too salty.
21
Oh, no. That's too bad.
22
I was planning to go there tomorrow.
23
Well, in my opinion, their coffee is much better than their food.
24
Ah, okay.
25
That is good to know.
26
You just used a great phrase there, Paul.
27
Oh?
28
Which one did I use?
29
You said, in my opinion.
30
That is a perfect way to share how you feel.
31
You're right.
32
Today we are talking about how to express our opinions, aren't we?
33
Yes, it's a very important topic for our friends who are learning English.
34
It really is.
35
We give our opinions all the time, every single day.
36
We do, whether we are talking about food,
37
movies, or even the weather.
38
So, Emily, what is the easiest way to start an opinion?
39
I think the easiest way is to just say, I think.
40
Yes, it's so simple and natural.
41
For example, I think today is a beautiful day.
42
I agree.
43
It is very sunny outside.
44
You could also say, I believe.
45
It sounds a little more certain.
46
That's true.
47
For example, I believe this is the best way to learn.
48
Wow, that's a strong opinion.
49
I like it.
50
Paul, do you think it's important to be polite when giving an opinion?
51
Oh, definitely.
52
You don't want to sound too bossy or rude.
53
Exactly.
54
Sometimes we use phrases like,
55
I feel like, to sound a bit softer.
56
Ah, yes.
57
I feel like we should go to the park later.
58
That sounds much better than just saying, go to the park.
59
Yes.
60
It's much more friendly.
61
It sounds like a suggestion.
62
What about when someone asks for your opinion?
63
How do they usually ask?
64
Usually, people say, What do you think?
65
Or, How do you feel about this?
66
Those are perfect.
67
Let's practice.
68
Paul, what do you think about Italian food?
69
Oh, wow.
70
I love Italian food.
71
In my opinion, pizza is the king of all foods.
72
I see.
73
But for me, I think pasta is even better.
74
Really?
75
Why do you think so?
76
Well, because there are so many different types of pasta.
77
It's never boring.
78
That's a good point.
79
I see what you mean.
80
See?
81
You just used another great phrase.
82
I see what you mean.
83
Yes.
84
It shows that I am listening to you even if I have a different opinion.
85
That is very important in a conversation.
86
It keeps things friendly.
87
What if I really disagree with you, Emily?
88
What should I say then?
89
You can say, I'm not so sure about that,
90
or I see your point,
91
but… Ah, that's very polite.
92
It's better than just saying, you are wrong.
93
Oh, definitely.
94
Never say you are wrong to a friend.
95
It's not very nice.
96
I agree.
97
It's much better to say,
98
I have a different opinion.
99
Exactly.
100
Or you can say, if you ask me,
101
I think the other way is better.
102
If you ask me, that's a very common one, isn't it?
103
Yes, it is.
104
We use it when we want to give our personal view on something.
105
For example, if you ask me,
106
summer is much better than winter.
107
Oh, I'm not so sure about that, Paul.
108
I love the snow.
109
Really?
110
But the beach is so much fun in the summer.
111
I know, but I feel like winter is more cozy.
112
I love hot chocolate and big sweaters.
113
Hmm, I see your point.
114
Sweaters are very comfortable.
115
Yes, and I think the mountains look beautiful when they are white.
116
Okay, you win.
117
Winter is beautiful, but I still prefer the sun.
118
That's okay.
119
We can have different opinions and still be friends.
120
That is the best part about talking.
121
Everyone has a different perspective.
122
Paul, what is a formal way to say, I think?
123
Hmm.
124
Well, you could say, from my perspective,
125
or as far as I'm concerned.
126
Oh, those sound very professional.
127
Yes, you might use those in a meeting at work.
128
For example, from my perspective,
129
we need more time for this project.
130
Exactly.
131
It sounds very serious and clear.
132
And what about a very casual way, like between us?
133
Well, we often say, to be honest, or personally.
134
Yes, personally, I don't like horror movies.
135
Oh, me too.
136
They're too scary for me.
137
I'm glad we agree on that one.
138
Emily, if you are enjoying this conversation,
139
don't forget to like the video,
140
subscribe to the channel, and share it with a friend who's learning English.
141
yes and
142
if you are still listening comment pizza below we want to know who is still here yes tell us
143
if you prefer pizza
144
or pasta in the comments that's a fun way to practice
145
giving your opinion right now it really is you can write i think pizza is better
146
or in my opinion pasta is the best
147
great examples Paul now let's talk about music oh I love
148
talking about music what do you think about rock music to
149
be honest I find it a little bit loud I prefer
150
jazz jazz really why do you like jazz well I feel
151
like it is very relaxing it helps me study ah I see what you mean but if you ask me
152
rock music gives me energy that's true it is very good
153
for exercising exactly see we're using the phrases naturally now it
154
gets easier the more you practice you don't need to think
155
about the rules that's the secret isn't it just keep talking yes and don't be afraid to make mistakes we all do
156
Even native speakers like us make mistakes sometimes.
157
Oh yes, all the time.
158
Emily, let's imagine we are choosing a movie to watch.
159
Okay.
160
I want to see a romantic comedy.
161
Hmm.
162
To be honest, I'm not in the mood for a comedy today.
163
Oh?
164
What would you prefer to watch?
165
I feel like watching an action movie, something with fast cars.
166
I see.
167
Well, in my opinion, action movies can be a bit boring if there is no story.
168
I agree with that.
169
We need a good story, too.
170
How about we find a movie that is both action and comedy?
171
That sounds like a great idea.
172
I believe that is the perfect solution.
173
See?
174
We used I believe and in my opinion to solve a problem.
175
It works for everything, even for choosing what to watch.
176
What about when we want to agree strongly with someone?
177
Oh, you can say I couldn't agree more or that's exactly what I was thinking.
178
I love those.
179
I couldn't agree more, Paul.
180
English is fun to learn.
181
Yes, exactly.
182
You took the words right out of my mouth.
183
That's another funny expression.
184
You took the words out of my mouth.
185
What does that mean exactly for our friends at home?
186
It means that you said exactly what I was going to say.
187
Ah, I love that.
188
It's so useful.
189
It really is.
190
It shows that we have the same opinion.
191
And what if I only agree a little bit?
192
You could say, I suppose so,
193
or I guess you're right.
194
I guess you're right.
195
That sounds like I'm changing my mind.
196
Yes.
197
Like, if you say summer is better,
198
and I eventually agree with you.
199
I hope you do agree one day.
200
The sun is so nice.
201
Maybe.
202
I guess you're right that the beach is wonderful.
203
See?
204
It works!
205
I convinced you.
206
Just a little bit.
207
Emily, why do some people say, in my humble opinion?
208
Ah, that's a good one.
209
Humble means you're being modest.
210
So it's like saying, this is just my small idea, but… Exactly.
211
It's a very polite and soft way to share a view.
212
In my humble opinion, this podcast is very helpful.
213
Well, I hope so.
214
I really believe it is.
215
We are using all these phrases so much today.
216
I think it's great for practice.
217
It is.
218
Practice makes perfect, as they say.
219
Emily, do you have an opinion on video games?
220
Oh, wow.
221
Personally, I think they are a lot of fun.
222
Me too.
223
Especially games that you can play with friends.
224
I agree.
225
I feel like it's a great way to stay connected.
226
Exactly.
227
Even if we are in different houses, we can play together.
228
But some people think video games are a waste of time.
229
What do you think about that?
230
Well, to be honest, I see their point, but I don't agree.
231
Why not?
232
I believe games can teach you many things,
233
like solving problems or teamwork.
234
That is a very good point.
235
I never thought about it that way.
236
See?
237
Giving reasons helps people understand your opinion better.
238
It really does.
239
Using because is very important.
240
Yes.
241
I like this because or I think that because.
242
It makes your opinion much stronger.
243
Emily, what if someone asks you an opinion about something I don't know?
244
That happens.
245
You can say, I don't really have an opinion on that,
246
or I'm not sure.
247
That is very honest.
248
To be honest, I don't know much about that topic.
249
Exactly.
250
It's better than making something up.
251
I agree.
252
It's okay not to know everything.
253
Speaking of which, what do you think about space travel?
254
Hmm.
255
Personally, I think it's amazing.
256
I want to go to the moon.
257
Really?
258
I'm not so sure I would like that.
259
It seems scary.
260
Oh, but imagine the view.
261
I believe it would be the best experience ever.
262
Well, in my opinion, staying here on Earth is much safer.
263
You are probably right about that,
264
but I still want to try.
265
You are very brave, Paul.
266
I try to be.
267
Let's talk about something else.
268
What do you think about learning English online?
269
Oh, I think it's the best way.
270
You can learn anywhere.
271
I agree.
272
I feel like it gives students more freedom.
273
Yes, they can watch our videos whenever they want.
274
Exactly.
275
In my opinion, it makes learning more comfortable.
276
I couldn't agree more.
277
It's so convenient.
278
But some people prefer a real classroom.
279
How do you feel about that?
280
Well, I see what they mean.
281
In a classroom, you can meet people face to face.
282
That's true.
283
Personally, I like both ways.
284
They are both useful.
285
Well, that is a very balanced opinion, Emily.
286
Thank you.
287
I try to see both sides of the story.
288
That is a great skill to have.
289
It helps when you are having a discussion with friends with friends.
290
Emily, let's summarize some of the phrases we used today.
291
Good idea!
292
We used I think and I believe.
293
And we used in my opinion and personally.
294
We also learned I feel like and to be honest.
295
Don't forget, if you ask me, and from my perspective.
296
Those are so many great options.
297
Yes.
298
And for agreeing, we have I agree, me too, and exactly.
299
And my favorite, I couldn't agree more.
300
For disagreeing politely, we have I'm not so sure about that,
301
and I see your point,
302
but… These phrases make your English sound so much more natural.
303
They really do.
304
They help you sound like a native speaker.
305
Paul, do you have any last advice for our listeners?
306
Yes.
307
My advice is to try using one of these phrases today.
308
That's a great idea.
309
Try it with a friend or even in the comments.
310
Yes.
311
Tell us your opinion about this episode.
312
I hope their opinion is positive.
313
I believe it will be.
314
We had a great time today.
315
I agree.
316
It was a lot of fun talking with you, Paul.
317
Same here, Emily.
318
Well, I think we are coming to the end of our episode today.
319
It went by so fast.
320
It always does when we are having fun.
321
Don't forget to like this video and subscribe if you haven't already.
322
Yes, and remember to share this with your friends who are learning English.
323
We really appreciate your support.
324
It helps us make more videos for you.
325
Exactly.
326
We love being part of your English journey.
327
Well, goodbye for now, Emily.
328
Goodbye, Paul.
329
See you next time.
330
Goodbye, everyone.
331
Happy learning.
332
Bye-bye.

練習のヒント
このセクションでは、動画のスピードやトーンに合わせて英語シャドーイングを行うためのアドバイスを提供します。動画の会話は自然でフレンドリーなトーンですので、shadowspeakを活用して、音声を聞きながら声に出して繰り返す練習をしましょう。特に「I think」や「I believe」といったフレーズを重点的に練習し、その後に続く意見を強調することで、より自信を持って意見を述べることができるようになります。
英語スピーキング練習として、動画を一時停止して、自分の意見を口に出してみるのも良い方法です。たとえば、「今日はとても良い天気だと思います」と言った後、続けて自分がなぜそう思うのかを説明してみましょう。YouTubeで英語学習をしながら、このような練習を定期的に行うことで、英会話のスキルが向上します。練習を重ねることで、自然な会話ができるようになりますので、ぜひ挑戦してみてください。
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。
