1
Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel, where learning English is easy and fun.
2
I'm Emily.
3
Hello Emily.
4
Hi everyone.
5
It's so great to be hanging out with all of you today.
6
I was just thinking about something right before we started recording today.
7
It's funny how we use certain grammar naturally, without even realizing it.
8
Oh really?
9
What are you thinking about?
10
Well, just listen to what you just said.
11
You said, What are you thinking about?
12
You used the ing ending on the word think.
13
Oh, you're totally right.
14
And earlier I said, We are hanging out.
15
That is another ing word.
16
We use this pattern all the time.
17
We really do.
18
We use it whenever we talk about our days or what is happening right now.
19
It's such a common way to speak in English.
20
Exactly.
21
Like right this second, I'm holding a pen, and I'm looking at you on my computer screen.
22
And I'm drinking a cup of coffee.
23
I'm sitting in my favorite chair.
24
We add ing to our verbs to show that the action is happening right now, in this exact moment.
25
It makes the language feel so alive.
26
It's not just a fact, it is an action in motion.
27
That's a great way to describe it.
28
So what else are you doing today, besides holding a pen and recording a podcast with me, of course?
29
Well, today is a busy day for me.
30
I'm actually painting my living room.
31
Wow, that is a big project.
32
Are you painting it yourself, or is someone helping you?
33
I'm doing it completely by myself.
34
And to be honest, I'm making a huge mess in my apartment right now.
35
Oh no!
36
Are you spilling paint everywhere?
37
A little bit.
38
I'm wearing old clothes and I'm trying to be careful, but there are a few drops of paint on the floor.
39
What color are you painting the walls?
40
I'm painting them a light blue color.
41
It's very relaxing.
42
That sounds lovely.
43
Notice how we are talking about your day right now.
44
You aren't painting in this exact second because you are talking to me.
45
Right.
46
But it is happening today.
47
It is my current project.
48
So we still use that "-ing ending.
49
I am painting my living room today." Exactly.
50
The present continuous isn't just for this very second.
51
It's for anything happening around now. So true.
52
And what about you, Emily?
53
What are you doing today?
54
Well, I'm spending a lot of time in my kitchen today.
55
I'm baking some bread.
56
Baking bread?
57
That sounds amazing.
58
Are you making it from a mix or from scratch?
59
I'm making it totally from scratch.
60
I'm trying a brand new sourdough recipe.
61
Oh, nice.
62
Is it difficult?
63
I always hear that sourdough takes a really long time.
64
It really is taking a long time.
65
Right now, the dough is just resting on the kitchen counter.
66
The dough is resting?
67
Like it is tired from working out?
68
Yes, exactly.
69
In baking, we say the dough is resting.
70
It just means it is sitting there, and it is slowly growing.
71
So while you were sitting here talking to me, your bread is working hard in the other room.
72
Exactly.
73
It's growing and resting.
74
And later today, I'm putting it in the oven.
75
I bet your house is smelling really good right now.
76
It is starting to smell like flour and yeast.
77
I'm really enjoying a quiet day at home.
78
That sounds like a perfect day.
79
You know, another thing I am doing today is organizing my books.
80
Really?
81
Are you cleaning out your whole apartment?
82
I'm trying to.
83
I'm moving old books into boxes and I'm dusting the shelves.
84
That's a lot of work.
85
Are you finding any good books you forgot about?
86
I actually am.
87
I'm looking at a really old cookbook right now that I found behind a shelf.
88
Oh, you should use it.
89
Maybe you can cook something special tonight.
90
That's a good idea.
91
What are you doing tonight?
92
Do you have any fun plans?
93
Not really.
94
I'm just relaxing tonight.
95
I'm eating some of my fresh bread, and I'm watching a movie.
96
That sounds incredibly peaceful.
97
I'm definitely ordering a pizza tonight.
98
I'm not cooking after painting all day.
99
I don't blame you at all.
100
Painting is exhausting.
101
It really is.
102
By the way, while we're chatting about our days, if you are listening right now and enjoying this conversation, please take a quick second to like the video and subscribe to the channel.
103
Yes, it really helps us out.
104
And we want to hear from you, too.
105
What are you doing today?
106
Leave a comment below and tell us.
107
Are you working?
108
Are you relaxing at home?
109
We always love reading your comments and seeing how you are practicing your English.
110
So definitely let us know what you're doing right now.
111
Okay, so back to our days.
112
We talked about what we are doing right now and what we are doing today.
113
But we can also use this grammar for things happening these days in our lives generally.
114
Oh, right.
115
Like temporary habits or current phases we are going through.
116
Exactly.
117
For example, these days I'm trying to drink a lot more water.
118
That is a great habit.
119
Are you carrying a water bottle around with you?
120
Yes, I am.
121
I'm carrying a big blue water bottle everywhere I go.
122
It really helps.
123
I need to do that.
124
Currently, I'm trying to walk more.
125
Oh, nice!
126
Are you taking walks in the morning or the evening?
127
I'm taking short walks in the evening.
128
The weather is getting cooler, so it feels really nice outside.
129
That's wonderful!
130
Notice how you said, the weather is getting cooler.
131
The weather is changing, so it's a process happening right now.
132
Exactly.
133
We use the "-ing ending for changes too, like the sun is setting or it is getting dark.
134
Or, my English is improving.
135
That is a great sentence for everyone listening to practice.
136
I love that one.
137
My English is improving every single day. For sure.
138
So, what else are you working on these days?
139
Are you learning anything new?
140
Actually, I am.
141
I'm learning how to edit videos.
142
Oh, that's so cool.
143
Are you taking a class?
144
I'm not taking a formal class, no. I'm just watching tutorials online and practicing on my own.
145
That is a great way to learn.
146
I'm doing something similar.
147
I'm learning some conversational Spanish.
148
Really?
149
That's awesome.
150
Are you practicing with anyone?
151
I'm practicing with a friend from Mexico.
152
We are talking on the phone once a week.
153
That is such a good idea.
154
Learning a language with a friend makes it so much easier.
155
It really does.
156
It's just like what we are doing here on the podcast.
157
We're just chatting naturally.
158
And it's the best way to pick up new vocabulary, too.
159
You know, we've actually used some really interesting everyday phrases today while talking about our routines.
160
We really have.
161
We should definitely highlight a few of them so everyone can remember them and use them in their own conversations.
162
That sounds great.
163
The first one I noticed was when I was talking about painting.
164
I said, I was making a mess.
165
Yes, making a mess.
166
We use this all the time.
167
It just means you are making things dirty or untidy.
168
Right.
169
Like if you're cooking a big meal, you're probably making a mess in the kitchen.
170
Or if kids are playing with toys, they are making a mess in the living room.
171
It's a very natural way to describe it.
172
Totally.
173
What was another phrase we used?
174
When I was talking about my bread, I said I was making it from scratch.
175
Oh, I love that phrase, from scratch.
176
It means you are making something from the very beginning using basic ingredients.
177
Exactly.
178
You aren't using a box or a pre-made mix.
179
If you bake a cake from scratch, you use flour, sugar, and eggs.
180
It always tastes better when you make it from scratch.
181
I completely agree.
182
Another word we used a lot today was currently.
183
Yes, currently.
184
It's just a slightly more advanced way of saying right now or these days.
185
Right.
186
Instead of saying, right now I am reading a book, you can say, currently I am reading a book.
187
It sounds very smooth.
188
It really does.
189
It is great for talking about those temporary situations we mentioned earlier, Like, currently I am looking for a new job.
190
Perfect example.
191
OK, how about the phrase, taking a break?
192
We use that one constantly.
193
Taking a break means stopping your work or activity for a short time to rest.
194
Exactly.
195
Like, if you are studying for hours, you might say, I am tired.
196
I am taking a break.
197
I am definitely taking a break after I finish painting my walls today.
198
I'm sitting on the sofa and doing nothing.
199
You deserve a break.
200
Okay, let's look at one more phrase.
201
I know I said I was looking forward to eating my bread later.
202
Looking forward to.
203
This is such a warm, positive phrase.
204
It means you are excited about something that is happening in the future.
205
Exactly.
206
We use it all the time.
207
I am looking forward to the weekend.
208
Or, I am looking forward to seeing you.
209
And notice we use that ing ending again.
210
I am looking.
211
It is an action happening inside your mind right now.
212
Yes, you are currently feeling excited.
213
These phrases are so helpful for everyday conversations.
214
They really are.
215
But sometimes it's easy to make tiny mistakes when using this grammar.
216
I hear little mix-ups pretty often.
217
Oh, definitely.
218
Sometimes people use the simple present when they really mean the present continuous.
219
We can easily smooth that out, though.
220
Let's do it.
221
For example, a lot of times, someone will say, I paint my house today.
222
Right.
223
We understand what that means, but it doesn't sound entirely natural to a native speaker.
224
Exactly.
225
Because, I paint is a simple fact.
226
It sounds like a general routine, like, I paint houses for a living.
227
Yes.
228
If it is happening today as a specific project, it's much better to say, I am painting my house today.
229
I am painting my house today.
230
It just flows so much better.
231
It shows the action is in progress.
232
Okay, here is another common one.
233
Sometimes people ask, what you do now?
234
Haha, yes.
235
It is missing a couple of small but important words.
236
We need the are and the ing.
237
Exactly.
238
To sound really natural and conversational, we say, what are you doing now?
239
What are you doing now?
240
Or even shorter, what are you doing?
241
It's the most common question in American English.
242
It really is.
243
Here's a third one.
244
What if someone says, We are eat dinner soon.
245
I hear that one sometimes.
246
They remember the R, but they forget to change the verb.
247
Right.
248
The word eat needs to change.
249
It should be, We are eating dinner soon.
250
We are eating dinner soon.
251
The R and the ing always hold hands.
252
They belong together.
253
That is a great way to remember it.
254
They hold hands.
255
If you have am, is, or are, you usually need the ing on your action word. For sure.
256
Let's look at one last sentence.
257
Sometimes someone says, I am read a good book these days.
258
Yes.
259
If it is happening today as a specific project, it's much better to say, I am painting my house today.
260
I am painting my house today.
261
It just flows so much better.
262
It shows the action is in progress.
263
Okay, here is another common one.
264
Sometimes people ask, what you do now?
265
Ah, yes.
266
It is missing a couple of small but important words.
267
We need the R and the ING.
268
Exactly.
269
To sound really natural and conversational, we say, what are you doing now?
270
What are you doing now?
271
Or even shorter, what are you doing?
272
It's the most common question in American English.
273
It really is.
274
Here is a third one.
275
What if someone says, We are eat dinner soon.
276
I hear that one sometimes.
277
They remember the R, but they forget to change the verb.
278
Right.
279
The word eat needs to change.
280
It should be, we are eating dinner soon.
281
We are eating dinner soon.
282
The R and the ING always hold hands.
283
They belong together.
284
That is a great way to remember it.
285
They hold hands.
286
If you have am, is, or are, you usually need the ing on your action word. For sure.
287
Let's look at one last sentence.
288
Sometimes someone says, I am read a good book these days.
289
It's the exact same situation.
290
The am is there, but read needs its partner.
291
Exactly.
292
It needs to be, I am reading a good book these days.
293
I am reading a good book these days.
294
It sounds so smooth and completely natural.
295
It really does.
296
I feel like hearing all these little details is super helpful.
297
But it always makes more sense when you hear it in a real situation.
298
I completely agree.
299
Context is everything.
300
Let's try a quick practice conversation so everyone can hear this grammar in action.
301
Perfect.
302
Let's imagine we are talking on the phone.
303
It's Saturday afternoon and I'm calling you just to say hello.
304
Sounds great.
305
I'll answer the phone.
306
Ring, ring.
307
Hello?
308
Hey, Emily.
309
It's Paul.
310
How is your Saturday going?
311
Hey, Paul.
312
It's going great.
313
I'm actually just leaving the grocery store right now.
314
Oh, nice.
315
Are you buying ingredients for more bread?
316
Yes, I am.
317
I am making a huge mess in my kitchen this weekend.
318
What are you doing today?
319
I'm taking a break right now.
320
I'm sitting on my balcony and drinking some iced tea.
321
That sounds wonderful.
322
Is the weather nice over there?
323
It is.
324
The sun is shining and a cool breeze is blowing.
325
It's perfectly relaxing.
326
I am so jealous.
327
I am carrying heavy grocery bags to my car right now.
328
Oh no, let me let you go so you can drive home.
329
Are we still meeting for lunch tomorrow?
330
Yes, definitely.
331
I'm really looking forward to it.
332
Me too.
333
I'm craving a good burger.
334
I'll see you tomorrow, Emily.
335
Drive safely.
336
Thanks, Paul.
337
See you tomorrow. And scene.
338
That was a perfect example of a totally normal everyday phone call.
339
It really was.
340
We used the present continuous for almost everything.
341
I am leaving, I'm sitting, the sun is shining.
342
Because that is just how we talk about our current lives.
343
It is the grammar of the present moment.
344
Exactly.
345
And I hope everyone listening feels a lot more confident talking about their own days now. For sure.
346
Remember, practice is the key.
347
So don't forget to tell us in the comments what you are currently doing.
348
We love reading them.

- /v/ — /b/ にならないように、上の歯を下唇に当てる: conversational /ˌkɒnvə(ɹ)ˈseɪʃənəl/, verb /vɝb/, craving /ˈkɹeɪ.vɪŋ/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, oven /ˈʌ.vn̩/
- /f/ — 「フ」ではなく、上の歯と下唇で出す: phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/, flour /ˈflaʊ.ə/, shelf /ʃɛlf/, sofa /ˈsoʊ̯fə/, safely /ˈseɪfli/

- まず0.75倍速で一文ずつシャドーイングし、慣れてきたら通常の速度に戻します。
- 自分の声を録音して元の音声と比べます。phrase, scratch, grammarなどの単語に特に注意しましょう。
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。
