Welcome to another episode of Podcast and Chill on the Learn English Podcast channel.
2
I'm Leo, your host, and joining me is my wonderful co-host, Gwen.
3
Hello, everyone.
4
It's great to have you back.
5
How's everyone's English journey going this week?
6
Mine's alright, but sometimes.
7
I just can't seem to think in English.
8
Don't worry, you're not alone.
9
That feeling is super common, even for people who've been learning English for a long time.
10
Right?
11
It's like your brain gets stuck and another language and English words just won't come out.
12
Exactly.
13
But guess what?
14
Today's episode is all about overcoming that problem.
15
We'll talk about why it happens and share some great tips to help you start thinking in English more naturally.
16
Let's get started.
17
So let's talk about this problem.
18
Why is thinking in English so hard?
19
Well, first, it's a habit.
20
Our brains are used to thinking in the language we grew up with.
21
It's just natural.
22
Plus, when you're learning a new language, your vocabulary might not be big enough to express all your thoughts.
23
Absolutely.
24
And finally, sometimes a lack of confidence can hold us back.
25
We worry about making mistakes, so we might not want to think in English at all.
26
But remember, everyone makes mistakes while learning.
27
So, what can we do?
28
Don't worry.
29
There are ways to train your brain.
30
Let's start small.
31
Try describing your day in English.
32
Start simple.
33
Try listing your daily tasks in English, like wake up, eat breakfast, or go to work.
34
What are you doing right now?
35
I'm sitting at a desk, talking into a microphone.
36
You can also describe things around you.
37
Look at your desk and say, there's a pen, a notebook, and a lamp.
38
Even talking to yourself in English helps.
39
Narrate your actions by saying, I'm putting on my shoes, or I'm opening the door.
40
The more you practice, the more natural it will feel.
41
The other key is building your vocabulary.
42
The more words you know, the easier it will be to think in English.
43
There are lots of ways to learn new words, flashcards, apps, or even writing them down and using them in sentences.
44
This means you look at the cards again and again, but not too often.
45
You look at them a little bit apart.
46
This helps you remember the words better.
47
You can find lots of information about this on the internet.
48
It's really helpful.
49
It's important to start slowly and build up your word list.
50
Try to use new words every day.
51
If you do this, you will start to think in English more and more.
52
It will feel natural.
53
Let's look at some words related to today's topic.
54
Overcome, meaning winning against a challenge.
55
Example, she overcame her shyness and started talking to new people in her class.
56
Express, meaning show or tell someone how you feel or what you think.
57
Example, he expressed his happiness at learning a new word.
58
Confidence, meaning feeling sure of yourself and your abilities.
59
Example, speaking English in public gave her more confidence.
60
Narrate, meaning telling a story or describing things around you.
61
Example, the grandpa narrated exciting stories about his adventures.
62
Benefit, meaning an advantage or a good result.
63
Example, learning English has many benefits, like making new friends and traveling the world.
64
Does confidence help with thinking in English?
65
Yes, confidence helps.
66
When you feel good about your English, you're more likely to use it in your head.
67
This makes it easier to think in English over time.
68
Is learning grammar different from thinking in English naturally?
69
Yes, grammar rules are like instructions for building sentences.
70
Thinking in English is like using those instructions to have a conversation.
71
You can speak English without knowing all the rules.
72
Do you have any tips for beginners in English, Gwen? Of course.
73
There is a method I really recommend for those who find it hard to think in English.
74
It's called immersion.
75
It means surrounding yourself with English all the time to learn it better.
76
This means you try to listen, read, and speak in that language as much as possible.
77
Start with things you enjoy.
78
Read a simple story in English, maybe with pictures, or listen to music you love with English lyrics.
79
Singing along is a fun way to practice.
80
Movies are great, too.
81
Watch a familiar movie with English subtitles to connect the words with what's happening.
82
The more you listen, read, and watch in English, the more your brain gets used to the language.
83
Okay, so you are surrounded by English.
84
But how do you start thinking in English?
85
This is where talking helps.
86
There are awesome apps like HelloTalk or Tandem where you can chat with native English speakers.
87
It's like making a friend who can help you practice.
88
Don't forget about English clubs or online groups.
89
Talking with real people in a friendly space is a great way to gain confidence
90
and start thinking in English on the spot.
91
Remember, the key is to keep practicing.
92
Even short conversations help your brain get used to forming thoughts in English.
93
Learning a language takes time, like growing a strong, beautiful tree.
94
You wouldn't expect a tiny seed to become a giant tree overnight, would you?
95
Exactly.
96
So be patient with yourself.
97
Be proud of yourself for the small wins.
98
Did you understand a whole sentence today?
99
That's a big deal.
100
Did you ask for a coffee in English?
101
Great job.
102
Even tiny steps forward are really important.
103
Write down your journey.
104
This can help you see how far you've come.
105
Looking back at your achievements, even the small ones, is a great way to see how far you've come.
106
It shows that your hard work is paying off.
107
Reward yourself for doing well, even if it's just a tiny bit.
108
This will help you want to keep learning English and make it fun.
109
Learning something new is hard.
110
It's okay to make mistakes.
111
Everyone does.
112
Imagine a baby learning to talk.
113
They don't understand everything right away.
114
You're like that baby, but with bigger words.
115
Learning a language takes time.
116
Some days will be easier than others.
117
That's normal.
118
Just keep practicing and you'll see improvement.
119
Believe in yourself.
120
With hard work, you'll reach your goals.
121
Let's look at some words related to today's topic.
122
Subtitle, meaning lines or sentences at the bottom of a screen that show what the characters are saying.
123
Example, he watched the movie with English subtitles to understand the whole conversation.
124
Native, meaning someone or something that is from a particular place.
125
Example, he is a native English speaker because he grew up speaking English at home.
126
Achievement, meaning something good that you have done which could be a success.
127
Example, learning a new language is a great achievement.
128

130

132
Does translating everything in your head from your native language to English slow you down?
133
Why?
134
It's like having two conversations, one in your head and one in English.
135
The more you practice English, the less translating you'll need to do and speaking will feel faster.
136
Should we focus on perfection when it comes to thinking in English?
137
Not at all.
138
Everyone makes mistakes when learning a new language.
139
Focus on getting your message across, even if it's not perfect.
140
The more you speak, the better you'll become.
141
So, listeners, don't be upset if you can't think in English right away.
142
Keep practicing, celebrate your wins, and soon you will be thinking in English with confidence.

- エピソードを何度か聞きながら、レオとグウェンの会話を注意深く観察します。
- まずは、シンプルなフレーズを繰り返し耳にし、自分なりに声を出してみましょう。
- 毎日のルーチンを英語で小さく口に出してみることから始めると良いでしょう。たとえば、「私は今、靴を履いています」といった具体的な表現です。
- 新たに覚えた語彙を使って、自分の周りのものや日常の行動を描写する練習を重ねます。
- スライドダッシュボードのように少しずつ内容を増やしながら、英語の発音を良くする練習を行います。shadow speechを使って、発音の改善にもつなげましょう。

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。
