1
There's a snake!
2
There's a snake!
3
Once again, there's a conspiracy in Zootopia, and it's up to Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde to uncover the truth.
4
In today's lesson, we'll learn with some scenes where Judy meets Gary the Snake, the first snake to be seen in Zootopia in a century
5
and she discovers that snakes are not dangerous as she's been told.
6
And here's the best part, to help you not only learn all of the expressions we'll cover in today's scenes but also never forget them,
7
we want to give you all the smart flashcards for today's lesson for free.
8
You can practice them in our app by clicking the link
9
thousands of learners just like you are becoming more fluent every day
10
and having fun while doing it If that sounds like something
11
that you'd like be sure to try our method You only need a few minutes a day to see real progress now.
12
Let's see Judy's first encounter with Gary Please you don't have to hurt him
13
Hurt him?
14
Hurt him?
15
Snakes never hurt anyone.
16
We aren't the bad guys.
17
They are.
18
And this journal holds the secret that will prove it.
19
I have to prove it.
20
Please.
21
This is our only chance to set things right.
22
And when I do, my family will finally be able to come home.
23
So, Gary is immediately trying to convince Judy that snakes have been misunderstood all along.
24
Let's break down the language he uses to make his case.
25
Snakes.. never hurt anyone.
26
We aren't the bad guys.
27
They are.
28
In everyday English, bad guys means the villains.
29
The people doing harm, breaking rules, or causing trouble.
30
The opposite, naturally, is the good guys.
31
It's a very casual, informal way of talking about heroes and villains.
32
You might recognize this from Billie Eilish's hit song, Bad Guy.
33
Here, Billie playfully flips the whole idea.
34
She's the one claiming to be the bad guy.
35
And then, Gary reveals that the Linksley's journal is the key to Zootopia's biggest mystery.
36
When something holds a secret, it means that it contains hidden or crucial information that others don't know about.
37
We use the verb hold because the object is keeping something inside, like a container.
38
You could say, this old letter holds the answer.
39
Or her expression held a secret.
40
Listen to these other examples.
41
This candle holds the miracle given to our family.
42
Use this magic to get your father back.
43
I can't, not yet.
44
I don't understand.
45
This holds a power no human can access.
46
I think the clock holds a clue, so I need to get back to the garden and to Hattie.
47
And I mentioned the RealLife app earlier.
48
It really holds the secret for you to be able to speak confident, natural English.
49
Why am I so sure?
50
Well, I've personally learned six languages, and we've taught millions of English learners just like you over the last 15 years.
51
We used our experience to build the only English app you'll ever need.
52
If you feel too busy today, you can't have enough time to studying or you feel like you've been stuck at the same level forever, let me share with you a method to go from being a lost,
53
insecure English learner to being a confident, natural English speaker, even if you only have 10 to 15 minutes per day.
54
Watch a short lesson like this one with Zootopia 2, Practice the new words with smart flashcards, which use science to help you remember new words forever,
55
and speak the new words in a real conversation, so you feel confident using them in any situation, and practice pronunciation.
56
The great thing is we make it super easy for you to do this on the real life app.
57
And in fact, you can use the new words you're learning in a guided
58
speaking conversation based on this exact lesson with Zootopia 2 right now.
59
Stop just recognizing and forgetting new words and start being able to actually speak them naturally.
60
So try it for free.
61
Just click the link in the description.
62
Now, I bet you get frustrated when natives speak fast and you can't understand them, right?
63
Well, actually, the problem isn't usually about speed.
64
It's about connected speech.
65
That's how we natives cut, reduce, and link our words together when speaking fluently.
66
Listen again to how Gary says, prove it.
67
So, connected speech usually happens when we have content words, nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc., and function words,
68
articles, particles, pronouns, auxiliary verbs, etc., together.
69
Function words link to content words or other function words, and sometimes even reduce or morph.
70
This is a simple example.
71
Instead of saying prove and it as two separate words, we say a smooth prove it.
72
Prove it.
73
Your speaking will only improve with lots of practice.
74
So listen to Gary again and try to say that just like him.
75
In this journal, holds the secret that will prove it.
76
Holds the secret that will prove it.
77
And we have another great instance of connected speech that we can practice in the clip where Gary first appears
78
Mayor Wind Dancer's exclamation almost sounds like just one word first
79
the article a usually just reduces to what's called a schwa sound uh-uh It then links to theirs There's a
80
There's a let's put it all together There's a snake There's a snake now you try say
81
that just like Wind Dancer There's a snake!
82
There's a snake!
83
So apparently, something went very wrong, and that's why Gary needs a secret inside the journal.
84
This is our only chance to set things right.
85
What do you think it means to set things right?
86
To fix a mistake or correct an unfair situation?
87
To move things to the correct position?
88
To tell the truth about something?
89
Nice!
90
This expression is about restoring justice after something has gone wrong.
91
Think about the movie Encanto.
92
Bruno spent years in the walls of the house because everyone blamed him for bad things happening.
93
His whole journey, and honestly the whole family's journey is about setting things right.
94
Here are a couple other examples.
95
I gotta go back and set things right.
96
We'll set things right.
97
Good job up to this point.
98
Let's fast forward in the movie.
99
Gary escapes, and Judy discovers that snakes are innocent, and the Lynxlies are the real villains.
100
As Nick and Judy get closer to uncovering the mystery of how snakes were banished from Zootopia, the Lynxlies have Nick thrown in jail.
101
However, Pawbert and Gary are able to rescue Judy just in time.
102
This character, Pawbert, is also a Lynxly, but he's the black sheep of his family and has agreed to help Gary.
103
A black sheep is a family member who does not fit in with the behavior
104
and values of the rest of their family, just like Elphaba from Wicked.
105
Now let's check out the scene where Judy wakes up after being saved by this duo.
106
You're not dead!
107
She's not dead!
108
What?
109
Sorry, sorry!
110
I just got my motorcycle license.
111
But out here, no one's gonna catch us.
112
Almost to me hideout.
113
We shall succeed, Judy Hopps.
114
We'll stop the lynx leaves and save your partner.
115
I'm sorry, you are...
116
Oh, Gary.
117
Gary the Snake.
118
Welcome to my oasis!
119
Ha ha.
120
Away from my evil family.
121
I like to come here, just kinda veg out.
122
Ooh.
123
Get with all my cat stuff.
124
Wow.
125
No!
126
That's actually vintage.
127
Oh, man.
128
You could just not...
129
Oh, no, no, please don't.
130
Wow, mammals get some best stuff!
131
Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off, turn it off!
132
Whoa!
133
Sorry, sorry!
134
I just got my motorcycle license.
135
A license is an official document that gives you legal permission to do something.
136
A driver's license lets you drive a car, a pilot's license lets you fly a plane, a fishing license lets you fish lets you fish.
137
Pauvert isn't a great motorcycle driver yet because he just got his license.
138
Pauvert is a silly character so he playfully says this next line.
139
Almost to me hideout!
140
Okay, did you catch that?
141
Gary says, me hideout, instead of my hideout.
142
It's pirate speech.
143
A bit like how Captain Jack Sparrow would speak.
144
Pirates replace my with me.
145
Me ship.
146
Me treasure.
147
Me hideout.
148
And pirates often have a hideout.
149
A secret place to hide from people who are after them or to find tranquility.
150
Just like Batman's Batcave.
151
Now let's check out some interesting grammar that Gary used.
152
In modern English, we almost always use will to talk about the future.
153
We will succeed.
154
But shall is an older, more formal way of expressing the same thing.
155
We can use it when we want to sound more dramatic.
156
Here are a couple more examples. And next,
157
Judy uses a really useful social expression.
158
So this is a very polite, smooth way to ask someone's name.
159
The I'm sorry at the start isn't a real apology.
160
It's more like a way of saying excuse me or forgive me for not knowing.
161
It signals politeness before asking something slightly awkward.
162
For example, imagine you're lost in a new city.
163
You might ask a local, I'm sorry, but do you know where the train station is?
164
Welcome to my oasis!
165
Literally, an oasis is a green, fertile spot in the middle of a desert.
166
But we use it figuratively all the time to mean any peaceful place that exists within a stressful situation.
167
And I love the phrasal verb that Paubert used next.
168
Away from my evil family.
169
I like to come here, just kinda veg out.
170
Get with all my cat stuff.
171
What do you think veg out means?
172
To eat lots of vegetables and be healthy?
173
To completely relax and do absolutely nothing?
174
To redecorate your space?
175
Yes, this is a very casual, informal expression.
176
When you veg out, you usually do something mindless, like watching TV, scrolling on your phone, or staring at the ceiling.
177
Veg comes from vegetable, because when you veg out, you're about as active as a vegetable on the couch.
178
Similarly, we can call a lazy person a couch potato.
179
You know what, I don't feel like going out.
180
I'd rather just veg out in front of the television, like that.
181
The human being is called a couch potato.
182
Next, Gary goes a little crazy with all of Pawbert's cool objects.
183
No!
184
That's actually vintage!
185
When something is vintage, it's old, but in a good, desirable way.
186
It refers to things from the past that are now considered stylish, special, or collectible.
187
Vintage clothing, vintage cars, vintage furniture.
188
It's the opposite of old junk.
189
This word actually comes from wine making.
190
A vintage wine is one from a particularly great year.
191
The older and better the year, the more valuable the bottle.
192
Wow, mammals get the best stuff!
193
Gary is a snake, which means he's a reptile, not a mammal.
194
So what exactly are mammals?
195
They're warm-blooded animals that feed their young with milk.
196
Humans, dogs, cats, rabbits, all mammals.
197
Reptiles, like snakes, on the other hand, are cold-blooded.
198
Gary is just a little envious here of Pawbird's toys.
199
Let's wrap up with a final bit of connected speech.
200
You almost always see connected speech with phrasal verbs like this.
201
The T in it is between two vowels.
202
So we convert it to a tap T and connect it to off.
203
It off.
204
It off.
205
And then all three words flow together as if they were just one.
206
Turn it off.
207
Turn it off.
208
Listen again and try to say it just like Paubert.
209
Awesome work today!
210
Now comes the most important part of the lesson, your test.
211
You'll watch all the scenes again, this time without subtitles, and answer some quiz questions.
212
Ready?
213
I have to prove it, please.
214
Fill in the blank.
215
After years of rivalry, the two brothers finally sat down to talk and decided and decided to set things right.
216
This is our only chance to set things right.
217
And when I do, my family will finally be able to come home.
218
You're not dead!
219
She's not dead!
220
What?
221
Sorry, sorry.
222
I just got my motorcycle license.
223
But out here, no one's gonna catch us.
224
Almost to me hideout!
225
Gary says, We shall succeed, Judy Hopps.
226
Which sentence has the most similar feeling to this one?
227
We will get there soon.
228
We are going to try our best.
229
We will overcome this.
230
Or stop the lynxlings and save your partner.
231
You've just been introduced to someone at a networking event, but you miss their name.
232
Which is the most polite and natural way to ask.
233
Wait, who are you again?
234
I'm sorry, you are?
235
What did you say your name was?
236
True or false?
237
To veg out means to spend your free time doing something healthy.
238
False.
239
It means to relax completely and do nothing.
240
Get with all my cat stuff.
241
No!
242
That's actually vintage.
243
You could just not...
244
No, no, please don't!
245
Wow, mammals, this is the best stuff!
246
Turn it off!
247
Turn it off!
248
Turn it off!
249
Turn it off!
250
Oh yeah, if you haven't seen Zootopia 2 yet I'd say you're pretty prepared to watch it in English

この動画で話す練習をする理由
「ズートピア」のこのシーンでは、ジュディ・ホップスとゲイリー・ザ・スネークがコミュニケーションを通じて誤解を解く様子が描かれています。この動画を基に英語を練習することで、映画のキャラクターのように自然に話すスキルを向上させることができます。特に、ジュディがゲイリーと対話する場面では、誤解を解くための重要なコミュニケーションスキルが生かされています。こうした実際の会話に触れることで、自分自身の英語力をリアルな文脈で鍛えることができ、語彙やフレーズを効果的に身につけることができます。
文法と表現の文脈
この動画から学べるいくつかの重要な表現を分析してみましょう。
- Snakes never hurt anyone. - この文は、蛇が危険ではないことを強調する表現です。「never」の使用により、否定形が強調されています。
- We aren’t the bad guys. They are. - 「bad guys」という表現はカジュアルな文脈で、悪者を指します。映画や歌の中でもよく使われる表現です。
- This journal holds the secret. - 「holds」という動詞を使うことで、何かが重要な情報を持っていることを示しています。
こうしたフレーズは、英語を話す際に非常に役立つものです。特に、shadow speakや英語シャドーイングを通じて、このような表現を繰り返し練習することで、記憶に定着しやすくなります。
一般的な発音のトラップ
この動画に登場するいくつかのトリッキーな単語やアクセントに注目してみましょう。
- snake - この単語は、特に母国語と異なる音に注意が必要です。「スネーク」と正しく発音する練習をしましょう。
- hurt - アクセントの位置によって発音が変わることがあります。この単語をクリアに発音することで、聞き取りやすくなります。
- guys - カジュアルな英語でよく使われますが、音の流れを意識してスムーズに発音することが重要です。
これらの発音練習は、shadowspeakやshadowing siteの手法を活用しながら行うことで、より効果的に身につけられます。
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。
