Hello, everyone, and welcome back to English Cozy Chat,

皆さん、こんにちは。English Cozy Chatへようこそ。

a slow English podcast which helps you to learn English in a fun and natural way.

I am Maria, and it's Monday,

and I definitely have a Monday feel today.

In English, sometimes we say, I have a case of the Mondays,

which simply just means you're really tired from the weekend

and it's getting hard to get your week started sometimes on Mondays I feel really energized

and motivated to start the week but other times I just feel really tired

and it's really hard for me to get going

so I have the most important thing that you need to have on a Monday

some coffee this is my favorite coffee cup in spanish it says tu puedes con todo it is la bomba

and in english that means you can do it you are the bomb

and it shows a little picture of a bomb and I think that's just so cute.

So cheers to that.

And today I thought that I would just talk a little bit about my weekend.

My husband and I live far away from our families.

My family lives in the United States and his family lives in Germany and I live in Spain.

This coffee cup is a little bit hot.

I'm just gonna put it down.

So my mother -in -law came to visit us.

And mother -in -law means the mother of your spouse's.

A spouse is your husband or wife.

So it's your husband or wife's mother.

And a father -in -law is your husband or wife's father

so my mother -in -law came to visit us from Germany

and she was here for one week she came on last Monday

and she just left this morning so over the weekend we had a few fun things planned when she was here.

I always have a really good time when she's here.

I really enjoy having her around.

She's a really big help.

And it's just really nice for us to have family come visit since we live so far from all of our family.

So on Friday afternoon, she came with me to pick up my girls from school.

And then we ate a snack,

got dressed, and got ready to go to a dance show.

There was a dance performance in the middle of our town from a local dance school,

and our plan was to go and watch the show.

I was so excited about it because I love dance.

I love to dance and I also love watching dance

so we went there and parked the car

and walked to the place where the show was supposed to be

and it was absolutely empty and then I looked at the tickets for the show and I had gotten the date wrong.

It was actually the next day.

So I made all of us get ready and go to this show when really There was no show that night.

I felt really embarrassed and bad for doing that.

But my mother -in -law thought it was actually kind of funny.

And instead, we went to a plaza nearby and just had something to drink and enjoyed the atmosphere.

Here in Spain there are many plazas where there are also parks for children and restaurants right next to them.

So it's a really great place for people to go and sit,

eat something, drink something, and the kids can also play and have a good time.

And in general, it's just really fun,

and it's a nice atmosphere so we did

that on Friday instead of going to the dance show

and it ended up being really fun so it kind of worked out

that we went on the wrong day because we ended up having a really good time anyway.

Then on Saturday we had a really nice day at home.

My mother -in -law is a very good cook

and she makes a delicious chicken soup

and she spent the whole day cooking this chicken soup which she is famous for.

It's a really long recipe,

which takes lots of time and has lots of steps.

So she spent the whole day cooking it.

And I really loved this because I love to cook myself,

but I also really love to watch others cook

and see how they do things and techniques

that they use to get lots of flavor out of food

so on saturday i wrote her recipe

down on a piece of paper

and it actually felt really good to just sit sit

and write I really liked this feeling and I realized I never just sit and write

a lot maybe I write a to -do list or one or two words to remind myself of something or

a short note to leave for someone,

but I usually never write a full page of handwritten notes.

I know that may sound weird.

I don't know if you guys ever write, but am I the only one that feels like this?

Anyway, it felt really good to just take a pen

and write down lots of notes on paper and to write down her entire recipe.

I usually don't cook recipes that take a long time to make.

I usually try to make things quickly.

However, I do try to make food as flavorful as possible.

That is very important to me.

But I usually don't spend a lot of time.

cooking.

So it was fun for me to see how she did it.

And I'm going to try to do it kind of in

my own way to see how maybe I can make the process a little bit easier

and keep the same delicious flavor that it always has.

So that night we actually did go to the dance show and it really was on Saturday night.

So we watched it and I absolutely loved it.

I love watching dance.

And in this show, there were many different kinds of dance.

There was ballet, jazz, contemporary,

and some of the dances were just really good.

And it's been a long time since I've watched really good dancing.

So that was a really nice experience.

It was in a garden area that is in town

and it had twinkling lights everywhere and it was just decorated really nice.

And overall, it was just a really nice experience.

And then when we came home, we ate the chicken soup that she spent all day cooking.

And it was absolutely delicious this soup has chicken

100

and vegetables and noodles and just the flavor of the broth itself

101

which is the liquid in the soup is so flavorful

102

and delicious that I don't want to stop eating this soup when I eat it.

103

Then on Sunday, we went to a nice restaurant for lunch.

104

This was really nice because we have been trying to not go out

105

and eat as much and just eat at home more,

106

but this was a special occasion having her here so we went to a nice restaurant and had a really good lunch.

107

Sometimes it's just really fun to put on nice clothes

108

and get out of the house and be in a nice restaurant atmosphere,

109

especially if you don't do it that often, it makes it extra special.

110

So then when we came home from the lunch,

111

I watched a movie with my husband and my kids.

112

And the movie is called Coco.

113

It is a Disney animated movie.

114

And wow, this movie is so good.

115

My husband and I were both crying at the end.

116

Not a sad cry.

117

It was a happy cry because this movie has a really beautiful story and the ending is just really sweet.

118

I think it is my favorite Disney movie.

119

It's definitely my favorite Disney movie right now, and it may be one of my favorite movies.

120

I really love watching movies with my kids because they're really good for adults to watch too.

121

They're not just for kids.

122

I enjoy them just as much as they do.

123

Then for dinner we were still so full after eating this really big lunch

124

but we ate just a little bit of soup and then we went to bed.

125

Sometimes having a really long lunch in the middle of the day also just makes me really tired.

126

So that was it for my weekend.

127

It was really fun.

128

I did some different things and it was also kind of relaxing.

129

What did you do this weekend?

130

I would love to hear.

131

Please let me know in the comments and I can't wait to see you in the next episode.

132

Bye!

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。
