1
Hey English learners!
2
Welcome back to Speak English with Jay and May, your cozy little place to build your English confidence.
3
I'm May.
4
Hello, May, and hello, everyone.
5
I'm Jay.
6
How are you today, May?
7
I'm doing amazing, Jay.
8
Actually, I just had the most interesting morning.
9
I was helping my neighbor and I realized something big.
10
Oh yeah?
11
What happened?
12
She's been studying English for two years - grammar, vocabulary, everything.
13
But when a delivery guy knocked on her door, she just froze.
14
She couldn't say a single word.
15
Wait, really?
16
After two years?
17
Yes.
18
And you know why?
19
Because nobody taught her the everyday phrases – the simple, real ones people actually use every single day.
20
Oh, wow.
21
So, like, the phrases you need just to live life in English?
22
Exactly.
23
And that's what we're doing today – 99 phrases you need every single day for Thank you.
24
Okay, I'm so ready for this.
25
This sounds super useful.
26
It is!
27
And real quick, if you're finding value in this podcast, please subscribe, hit that notification bell, and share this with a friend who's learning English.
28
You sharing it helps us reach more learners every single day.
29
Okay, let's dive in.
30
Let's go!
31
So Mae, where do we even begin with 99 phrases?
32
Okay, so I'm going to break them into groups, real situations you face every day,
33
starting with greetings, because that's always the door you open first.
34
Makes sense, like saying hello?
35
Right, but not just "hello", think about what real people say: "Hey, how's it going?
36
What's up?" "How have you been?" These are the ones you hear everywhere.
37
"Oh, I always hear 'what's up' but I never know what to say back." That's so common!
38
Here's the secret: you don't have to say anything deep, just say, "Not much, you?" or "Pretty good, thanks !" Done.
39
Wait, that's it?
40
Just not much?
41
You?
42
That's it!
43
English small talk is actually very simple.
44
People aren't looking for a life story, they just want connection.
45
Okay, that actually makes me feel way better.
46
What's next?
47
Now let's talk about asking for help, because this one is huge.
48
Every single day, you might need something, and knowing how to ask is everything.
49
Like, what kind of phrases?
50
So you've got, could you help me with this?
51
Or do you mind if I ask you something?
52
Or even just, sorry to bother you, but...
53
Oh, I like that one.
54
Sorry to bother you, but it sounds so polite.
55
Yes, and polite goes a long way.
56
You know, I remember when I first moved to a new city, I needed directions and I was so nervous to ask.
57
What did you do?
58
I walked past the same corner three times.
59
Finally, I said, "Excuse me, could you help me?
60
I'm a little lost." And the person was so kind.
61
Three times.
62
Okay, so just say it.
63
Just ask.
64
Just say it.
65
"Excuse me" is like a magic key.
66
It opens every door.
67
What about when you don't understand something?
68
That happens to me all the time.
69
Oh, this is so important.
70
You need phrases like, "Sorry, could you say that again?" or, "I didn't quite catch that." or, "Could you speak a little slower,
71
please?" You mean like, "It's okay to ask someone to slow down?" 100 % okay.
72
Native speakers do it too.
73
Nobody expects you to catch everything perfectly.
74
Wow, that's so reassuring.
75
I always feel embarrassed.
76
Don't be.
77
Asking for clarity is actually a sign of good communication.
78
It shows you care about understanding.
79
Okay, I love that.
80
So what group comes next?
81
Agreeing and disagreeing.
82
Because in real conversations, you always need to respond to what someone says.
83
You can't just nod forever.
84
True.
85
I do that sometimes.
86
Just nod and smile.
87
We all do.
88
But now you've got better tools.
89
For agreeing, say, "Absolutely.
90
That makes total sense.
91
I couldn't agree more.
92
You're so right about that." Those sound so natural.
93
What about "disagreeing"?
94
That feels harder.
95
It can feel scary, but here's a soft way to do it: I see your point,
96
but… or, that's interesting, though I think… or, I'm not sure I agree, actually.
97
Oh nice, so you're not being rude, you're just being honest.
98
Exactly, you cushion it, like a pillow before the punch.
99
A pillow before the punch.
100
I love that.
101
Wait, here's the interesting part.
102
Most arguments in English don't start because of what people say.
103
They start because of how they say it.
104
Whoa, so the phrases actually protect the relationship?
105
Yes, the right phrase keeps the door open, the wrong one slams it shut.
106
Okay, that's deep.
107
What's next on the list?
108
Okay, opinions.
109
Because people will always ask, "What do you think?" and you need a real answer ready.
110
Right.
111
And sometimes I just say, "Um, it's okay." because I don't know what else to say.
112
We need to upgrade that.
113
Try "in my opinion" or "personally,
114
I think" or "if you ask me." These phrases signal that you're about to share something real.
115
So it's like announcing your opinion before you give it.
116
Exactly.
117
It's like saying, "Hey, I'm about to talk now." It gives you a second to think, too.
118
Oh, that's clever.
119
Buy yourself some time.
120
Smart, right?
121
And if you're not sure about something, say, "I'm not totally sure, but I think," or, Don't quote me on this, but...
122
You mean like you're warning them it might not be perfect, Exactly.
123
Honesty in communication builds trust.
124
People respect you more when you admit you're not 100 % certain.
125
Okay, let's keep going.
126
What area haven't we covered yet?
127
Okay.
128
Big one: talking about time.
129
Because life is full of schedules, appointments, deadlines.
130
Oh, yes.
131
I always struggle with this at work or school.
132
So, you need phrases like, "Let me check my schedule." Can we reschedule?
133
"I'm running a little late." "I'll be there in 10 minutes." I'm running a little late.
134
I used that one, actually.
135
See?
136
You already know some!
137
And add "sorry for the delay" or "thanks for waiting." Those two phrases, people love to hear them.
138
Because they show you respect their time?
139
Exactly.
140
Time is the one thing nobody can get back.
141
Acknowledging that, Big deal.
142
This is where things change for me.
143
I never thought about time phrases as being that important.
144
Oh, they're huge!
145
And here's a funny story: my friend once told her boss she'd finish a report Soon.
146
You know what happened?
147
What?
148
Her boss thought "soon" meant in one hour.
149
She meant in one week.
150
No way!
151
That's such a big misunderstanding.
152
Yes.
153
So, be specific.
154
Say, "I'll finish by Friday," or, "I'll send it this afternoon." Clear is kind.
155
Clear is kind, I'm writing that down.
156
Please do.
157
Now let's talk about something you do every single day: shopping, ordering food, getting things done.
158
Oh yes, like at a coffee shop or restaurant?
159
perfect example.
160
You need, can I get, or I'd like to order, or what do you recommend?
161
And when you receive something, this looks great.
162
Thank you.
163
What about if there's a problem, like the order is wrong?
164
Great question.
165
Say, "Excuse me, I think there might be a mistake." Or, "I'm sorry, but I ordered something different." Calm, polite, clear.
166
That sounds so much better than getting upset.
167
Always.
168
A calm voice gets better results than a loud one.
169
Trust me on that.
170
You won't believe what I used to do, I'd just eat the wrong order and say nothing.
171
Oh no!
172
You needed these phrases earlier.
173
I really did.
174
Okay, what else is on our list?
175
Phone and messaging phrases, because so much of life now happens on the phone or online.
176
Oh good, I panic a little on phone calls.
177
So many people do.
178
Okay, try, is this a good time to talk?
179
I'll call you back in a bit.
180
Can you send me a text instead?
181
Or when you're on a call, sorry, I lost you for a second.
182
Can you repeat that?
183
Oh, I love, is this a good time to talk?
184
It's so considerate.
185
"It really is.
186
You're respecting their space.
187
And if you need to end a call, I'll let you go now," is a beautiful phrase.
188
I let you go, like you're setting them free.
189
Exactly.
190
It's gentle.
191
It's kind.
192
No awkward silence.
193
Okay, let's keep the momentum.
194
What's next?
195
Feelings and emotions, because real English includes emotional honesty.
196
Oh, like how to express how you feel?
197
Yes, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed.
198
That really made my day.
199
I'm so relieved.
200
Honestly, I was nervous about this.
201
You mean like saying it out loud is normal in English?
202
Very normal.
203
English speakers talk about feelings openly.
204
It builds connection.
205
Wow, in some cultures that's private stuff.
206
I know.
207
But when you're speaking English, especially with international people, emotional vocabulary makes you more relatable, more human.
208
That's actually beautiful.
209
So, say what you feel.
210
"Say what you feel" with good phrases.
211
And here's one I love: When something good happens, don't just say "good." Say, "That's incredible.
212
I'm so happy for you.
213
That's such great news." Oh, it makes the other person feel seen.
214
Yes!
215
Big difference between "good" and "that's incredible!
216
Congratulations !" Okay, what about "compliments"?
217
I want to give compliments in English.
218
Oh, this is fun!
219
You did a great job!
220
That was really well done.
221
I love the way you explained that.
222
You have such a good sense of humor.
223
Those sound so warm.
224
What about accepting a compliment?
225
I always just say, "No, no, no," and wave my hand.
226
Oh, so many people do that.
227
In English, accept the compliment.
228
Just say, "Thank you so much," or, "That's really kind of you to say.
229
Simple and gracious." So don't reject it, just receive it.
230
Receive it with a smile.
231
You're not being arrogant, you're being gracious.
232
I'm going to practice that today.
233
OK, Mae, before we move to the last section, can we do a quick little scenario, like a real -life roleplay?
234
Oh, yes, great idea!
235
OK, listeners, imagine this: Jay just walked into a coffee shop.
236
It's busy, it's loud, and the barista is moving fast.
237
Jay, you're up.
238
What do you say?
239
OK, OK.
240
Um, excuse me.
241
Hi, could I get a medium latte, please?
242
Oh, and what do you recommend if I want something sweet?
243
Perfect!
244
See that?
245
Three phrases in 10 seconds.
246
Excuse me, could I get, and what do you recommend? natural, polite, confident.
247
And then the barista gives me the wrong drink, what do I say?
248
Stay calm.
249
Smile.
250
Say, "I'm sorry, I think there might be a mix -up.
251
I ordered a latte, not a cappuccino." That's it.
252
No drama, just clear communication.
253
And if they apologize to me?
254
You say, "No worries at all.
255
It happens." And just like that, the whole situation is handled with grace.
256
Wow, that felt so smooth.
257
I actually want to go to a coffee shop now just to practice.
258
That's the spirit, and that's exactly how it works in real life.
259
You practice in small moments, and slowly it becomes automatic.
260
OK, Mae, we're getting close to the end.
261
What are the last big groups?
262
two more important ones, problem -solving phrases and conversation closers.
263
Problem solving sounds useful, like at work, everywhere.
264
Let me figure this out.
265
Can we think of another solution?
266
How about we try it this way?
267
Let's take it one step at a time.
268
Let's take it one step at a time.
269
That one feels calm, like a hug in a phrase.
270
A hug in a phrase, I love that, Jay.
271
And when something goes wrong, say, "It's okay, we can fix this," or,
272
"Let's not panic, let's think." Those are so good for work and for life honestly.
273
Life first, work second.
274
If you can speak well in life, work follows naturally.
275
And conversation closers?
276
How do you end a conversation nicely? So important.
277
It was so nice talking to you.
278
Let's catch up again soon.
279
Take care.
280
Have a wonderful day.
281
Talk soon.
282
Oh, those feel so warm, not just bye -bye and walk away.
283
Right, leave people with a good feeling, the last thing you say is what people remember.
284
Okay, I want to do a quick recap because there was so much gold in this episode.
285
Yes, let's do it.
286
We covered greetings, asking for help, understanding phrases, agreeing and disagreeing,
287
sharing opinions, time phrases, shopping and ordering, phone phrases, emotional vocabulary, compliments,
288
problem solving, and conversation closers.
289
That is seriously 99 situations of real life packed into phrases.
290
And you don't have to learn them all today.
291
Just pick five.
292
Use them this week.
293
Then pick five more.
294
That's such a smart approach.
295
Small steps, big results.
296
Always.
297
Language is a habit, not a test.
298
Build the habit and fluency follows.
299
May, this episode genuinely changed how I think about speaking English.
300
So happy to hear, Jay.
301
And honestly, that's why we show up every single day, for moments like this.
302
Every day, listeners.
303
We're here every day, so make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an episode.
304
And before we go, we have a question for you, our wonderful listeners.
305
Which of these phrase groups do you need the most practice with right now?
306
Is it compliments, phone calls, day.
307
Tell us in the comments.
308
We read every single one.
309
Your comment might even inspire our next episode topic, so don't be shy.
310
That's it for today, everyone.
311
Thank you so much for spending this time with us.
312
Keep practicing, keep showing up, and remember: every phrase you learn is one more door you can open.
313
Take care, everyone!
314
Talk soon!
315
Bye!

왜 이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 할까요?

이 비디오는 초급자부터 중급자까지의 영어 학습자에게 매우 유용한 일상적인 구문들을 제공합니다. 영어 회화 연습에 있어서, 실생활에서 자주 사용되는 표현들을 배우는 것은 매우 중요합니다. 많은 학습자들이 문법이나 단어는 잘 아는데, 실제 상황에서 마주치는 일상 대화에서 막히는 경우가 많죠. 이렇게 실질적인 표현들을 통해 영어를 더 자연스럽고 자신 있게 구사할 수 있게 됩니다. 영어 슈도잉(shadowspeak) 기법을 활용하면 이러한 표현들을 더 효과적으로 익힐 수 있으며, 이는 영어 발음 교정에도 큰 도움이 됩니다.

문맥 속 문법 및 표현

비디오에서 소개된 여러 가지 중요한 표현들을 통해 다음과 같은 문법 구조와 표현을 분석해 보겠습니다:

  • 인사하기: "Hey, how's it going?"와 같이, 상황에 맞는 친근한 인사 표현들은 영어를 더 유창하게 하는 데 도움을 줍니다.
  • 기본적인 대화의 흐름 유지: "Not much, you?"와 같이 간단한 응답으로 대화를 이어나갈 수 있습니다. 이런 유형의 표현들은 상대방과의 연결감을 강화시키는 데 매우 중요합니다.
  • 도움 요청하기: "Could you help me with this?"와 같은 직접적이고 간단한 질문은 실제 사회 생활에서 많이 사용됩니다. 이는 상대방에게 요청할 때 더 자신감을 주죠.

이런 구조는 IELTS 스피킹 시험에서도 자주 요구되는 부분들로, 학습자들이 실질적인 영어 능력을 키우는 데 많은 도움을 줄 것입니다.

일반적인 발음 함정

비디오에서 언급된 표현들 중 몇 가지 발음이 어려운 단어들이 있습니다. 예를 들어, "what's up?"와 같은 표현은 발음 시 많은 이가 어려움을 겪습니다. 이 경우, 슬랭이 섞인 표현들과 억양 변화가 영어 발음을 더욱 어렵게 만들 수 있습니다. 영어 발음 교정을 위한 연습이 필요한 대목입니다. 또한, 일상 대화에서 자주 쓰이는 "could"와 같은 단어는 빠르게 말할 경우 발음이 불명확해지는 경향이 있으므로, 반복적인 영어 쉐도잉 연습이 효과적입니다.

이 영상의 문법

화자가 가장 많이 쓰는 문형을 영상 속 실제 표현과 함께 정리했습니다.

문형영상 속 표현
“might / may” 가능성 might/may + 동사 — 가능하지만 확실하지 않은 일might need · might not be · might be
최상급 the -est / the most … — 집단에서 가장 높거나 낮은 것the most interesting · the most practice
현재진행 am/is/are + -ing — 지금 또는 요즘 일어나고 있는 일I'm doing · we're doing · you're finding

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
