Tom, we still had 77 videos at 8 ,500 subscribers.
9
That is still true right now.
10
Yes.
11
Yes, it is.
12
I am very aware.
13
Moving on.
14
Okay, okay.
15
So today's lesson is about speaking, specifically how to speak better English at the B1 level.
16
And B1 is that exciting middle level.
17
You already know the basics, you can have conversations, but sometimes the right words just do not come out.
18
You know what to say in your head,
19
but your mouth says something different. about this situation.
20
Your mouth says, "I know like this." That is literally everyone's language journey.
21
everyone.
22
So today we are going to fix that.
23
We have vocabulary, we have real phrases, we have stories.
24
Good ones.
25
And one of them might be embarrassing.
26
It is definitely embarrassing.
27
Great.
28
But first, we have a question for you.
29
And you have to listen carefully to the whole episode to find the answer.
30
Here it is.
31
Last week I had to speak English in a very stressful situation.
32
I found I forgot one important phrase and something went very, very wrong.
33
What phrase did Tom forget, and what went wrong?
34
Please do not tell them yet.
35
I would never!
36
Listen to the whole episode and find out.
37
Let's go!
38
Okay, Tom, so this week, anything interesting happen?
39
Oh, oh yes, something happened.
40
Tell me everything.
41
Okay, so, You know I've been trying to speak more English outside of this studio, right?
42
Like practice in real life?
43
Yes, that is so good.
44
That is the only way to really improve.
45
Right.
46
So I went to a new coffee shop near my house.
47
A very trendy place.
48
Very cool.
49
Everyone is on a laptop looking very important.
50
I know exactly the kind of place and I go up to the counter.
51
and the person working there asks me a question.
52
A simple question.
53
What was the question?
54
She said, Would you like your order for here or to go?
55
Oh, that is such a normal question.
56
I know.
57
But I panicked because I wanted to say to go, but I also wanted to be polite and say a full sentence, and I mixed everything up.
58
What did you say?
59
I said, "Yes, I would like to please go here." Tom.
60
I know.
61
I would like to please go here.
62
What does that even mean?
63
It means nothing.
64
It means absolutely nothing.
65
And she just stared at me for three full seconds.
66
"Oh, no. Three seconds is a long time." It felt like three years.
67
And then she said, "So, for here, And I said, "Yes, thank you, sorry." And I sat down and I did not look up for my coffee for 20 minutes.
68
Tom, that is actually a perfect story for today's lesson.
69
I am a teaching tool.
70
I am suffering for your education.
71
You really are.
72
And the phrase he needed, by the way, was so simple.
73
We will get to it very soon.
74
Okay, before we get to vocabulary, a quick grammar point, because it connects perfectly to Tom's story.
75
This one is really useful for B1 speakers.
76
We are talking about polite requests and offers, specifically how to answer questions politely in English.
77
In English, when someone offers you something or asks you a choice question, you do not just say yes or no. That can sound a little cold.
78
phrase to make it warmer, natural, like a real conversation.
79
For example, "Would you like some water?" You can say, "Yes, please," or, "Yes, I'd love some," or, "No, thank you, I'm fine." See?
80
Small words, big difference.
81
And what you should not say is, "Yes, I would like to please go here." We will never let that go.
82
I know, I accept this.
83
The key grammar point is this: In polite responses, we often use I'd love to, I'd prefer, or I'll have.
84
These are short, natural, and very B1.
85
And we will see all of these in the vocabulary section right now.
86
All right, main lesson time.
87
Today we have five phrases that will seriously upgrade your English speaking at B1 level.
88
and the other ones everywhere.
89
And for each phrase we have a definition, examples, a story, and a repeat after medril.
90
Let's go.
91
Phrase number one i'd rather i'd rather this is a beautiful
92
useful phrase i'd rather means i prefer this option i want this more than something else
93
The structure is simple: I'd rather plus a base verb.
94
For example, I'd rather stay home, I'd rather have tea, I'd rather not say.
95
I'd rather not say is very useful, by the way.
96
Very polite way to say no to a question you do not want to answer.
97
I use that one a lot.
98
I know you do.
99
Okay, example sentences: Would you like to go to the party?
100
I'd rather stay home tonight.
101
I'm a little tired.
102
Do you want coffee or tea?
103
I'd rather have tea, please.
104
Should we take a taxi or walk?
105
I'd rather walk.
106
It's not too far.
107
Now, story time.
108
Tom, you have one for I'd rather, right?
109
I do.
110
So last month, my friend invited me to go to a very loud concert.
111
He loves loud music.
112
I do not love loud music.
113
You really do not.
114
I really, really do not.
115
So, he called me and said, "Tom, big concert tonight.
116
You coming?" And I said, "I'd rather go somewhere we can actually talk.
117
Can we try that new restaurant instead?" Aw, that is so polite.
118
You did not say, "No, concerts are terrible." I have learned, I have grown.
119
I'd rather is how civilized people say no. Okay, repeat after me.
120
Ready?
121
Say it with me.
122
I'd rather stay home.
123
I'd rather have tea.
124
One more time.
125
I'd rather stay home.
126
I'd rather have tea.
127
Great job, everyone!
128
Phrase number two: I'll have.
129
This is the phrase I needed at the coffee shop.
130
If I had remembered this, none of that happened.
131
I'll have is used when you are ordering or choosing something in a restaurant, a cafe, a meeting, anywhere.
132
The structure is easy: I'll have plus a noun.
133
I'll have the pasta.
134
I'll have a coffee.
135
I'll have the window seat, please.
136
It sounds confident and natural.
137
Very native speaker.
138
Example sentences: Are you ready to order?
139
Yes, I'll have the chicken sandwich and a water, please.
140
Uh, what size would you like?
141
I'll have a medium, thank you.
142
Would you like a window seat or an aisle seat?
143
I'll have the window seat, please.
144
And Tom, if she had asked for here or to go, what should you have said?
145
I'll have it to go, please.
146
He's got it!
147
Three weeks too late, but yes, I've got it.
148
Story time.
149
I have one for this phrase.
150
Oh good, it's my turn to laugh at you.
151
Maybe.
152
So I was at a very fancy restaurant with my sister for her birthday, and I did not know the menu at all.
153
It was a very long menu with very complicated names.
154
I hate those menus.
155
The waiter came very quickly, and I was not ready, and he asked, have you decided?
156
And I had not, but I looked confident, and I said, yes, I'll have whatever your most popular dish is.
157
No. I did!
158
And he said, "Of course, that would be the lamb." And I said, "Perfect." And it was actually amazing.
159
You just guessed.
160
I guessed confidently with "I'll have" and it worked.
161
Okay, repeat after me, everyone.
162
I'll have a coffee, please.
163
I'll have the window seat.
164
Say it again.
165
I'll have a coffee, please.
166
I'll have the window seat.
167
You're doing amazing!
168
Phrase number three: It seems like.
169
Oh, this one is so useful for conversations.
170
It seems like.
171
It seems like means I think this is true, but I am not completely sure.
172
It is your impression or feeling about something.
173
This is really important at B1 because sometimes you want to share an opinion without sounding too strong or too certain.
174
Instead of saying "this is difficult," which sounds very definite, you say "it seems like it's going to be difficult." more natural, more flexible.
175
Structure.
176
It seems like plus a subject and verb.
177
It seems like it's going to rain.
178
It seems like she's upset it seems like we're lost.
179
The last one is from experience.
180
A very specific experience, yes.
181
Example sentences!
182
It seems like everyone is enjoying the party.
183
It seems like this road is closed.
184
Let's try another way.
185
It seems like you've been working very hard lately.
186
Are you okay?
187
That last one is so caring.
188
English can be caring.
189
Okay, story.
190
Tom, go.
191
Okay, so last summer I was on a road trip with two friends.
192
We were driving to a beach town and we were using GPS.
193
But the GPS was a little old.
194
Oh no. So, we are driving for about 40 minutes, and I start to notice the roads look smaller,
195
and there are more trees, and fewer buildings.
196
You were going the wrong way.
197
So I said very calmly, "Hey guys, it seems like we might be going the wrong direction." It seems like.
198
Very diplomatic.
199
Not, "We are lost and it is your fault." Just,
200
"It seems like perhaps we are in a forest." How long were you lost?
201
About two hours.
202
Two hours!
203
But I said it very politely.
204
Okay, everyone, repeat after me.
205
It seems like it's going to rain.
206
It seems like she's upset.
207
One more time.
208
It seems like it's going to rain.
209
It seems like she's upset.
210
Beautiful.
211
Phrase number four.
212
I'm not sure but...
213
I love this one so much.
214
I'm not sure but is what you say when you want to give an answer or opinion, but you are not 100 % confident.
215
It shows honesty.
216
It shows humility.
217
And this is a very B1 skill.
218
At lower levels, students sometimes stay silent because they are not 100 % sure.
219
But native speakers say things even when they are not sure.
220
They just signal it first.
221
I'm not sure, but I think the meeting is at 3.
222
You are still answering.
223
You are being helpful, but you are being honest about your confidence level.
224
Structure?
225
I'm not sure, but… plus your answer.
226
I'm not sure, but I think it's on the second floor.
227
I'm not sure, but she might be on her way.
228
Example Sentences: Do you know what time the museum opens?
229
I'm not sure, but I think it's around 9.
230
Is this the right bus?
231
I'm not sure but I think it goes to the city center.
232
Did she already leave?
233
I'm not sure, but her coat is gone.
234
Story time.
235
Lily, this one's yours.
236
Okay, so I was visiting a new city with a friend.
237
We were looking for a famous bookshop, and we stopped to ask a local for directions. And...
238
The local said, "I'm not sure, but I think it's down that street, past the blue building." And we said, "Thank you," and walked that way.
239
Did you find it?
240
We did!
241
And while we were looking, we found the most amazing little bakery next door.
242
We would never have found it if that person had just said, "I don't know," and walked away.
243
So, "I'm not sure, but" actually led you to a bakery.
244
Language leads you to good things always that is beautiful and also very you.
245
Repeat after me.
246
I'm not sure, but I think it's nearby.
247
I'm not sure, but she might be on her way.
248
Again, I'm not sure, but I think it's nearby.
249
I'm not sure, but she might be on her way.
250
Excellent work!
251
Last phrase, number five: to be honest.
252
Oh yes, this one changes everything.
253
To be honest is a phrase you use before you share a real opinion, a true feeling, something sincere.
254
It tells the listener, "What I'm about to say is my genuine thought, not just the polite answer, the real one." And in English,
255
when you use "to be honest," people trust you more.
256
They feel like you are speaking from the heart.
257
Structure.
258
"To be honest," at the start of the sentence, then your real opinion.
259
"To be honest, I didn't really enjoy the movie." "To be honest, I'm a little nervous about the presentation." You can also say "honestly" at the start.
260
Same meaning, more casual.
261
What do you think of the new design?
262
To be honest, I think the old one was better.
263
Did you like the food?
264
To be honest, it was a little salty for me, but the dessert was amazing.
265
Are you excited about the trip?
266
To be honest, I'm a little nervous, but mostly excited.
267
Aw, that last one is so relatable.
268
Okay, my story.
269
Last year, a colleague showed me a presentation she had been working on for two weeks, and she asked me, what do you think? And?
270
It had 47 slides, Lily.
271
47!
272
That is so many slides!
273
So I said, to be honest, I think we could make it a little shorter and people would focus more.
274
And she said, how many slides do you think?
275
And I said, maybe 10?
276
What did she say?
277
She said, "To be honest, I knew it was too long." She already knew!
278
She already knew!
279
And because we both used "to be honest," the whole conversation was easy.
280
No one got upset.
281
That is the power of this phrase.
282
It creates a safe space for real conversations.
283
Language is amazing.
284
It really, really is.
285
Okay.
286
Last drill.
287
Repeat after me.
288
To be honest, I'm a little nervous.
289
To be honest, I think the old one was better one more time.
290
To be honest, I'm a little nervous.
291
To be honest, I think the old one was better.
292
You are doing so well!
293

왜 이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 할까요?

이 비디오는 실제 생활 대화에서의 영어 회화 연습을 통해 자연스럽고 유창하게 말할 수 있도록 도와줍니다. B1 레벨에서 기본적인 내용을 알고 있지만, 때때로 원하는 단어가 누락되곤 하죠. 이 과정에서 다양한 실생활 상황의 대화를 통해 필요한 표현과 문맥을 배우게 되어, 영어를 사용하는 자신감을 더욱 높일 수 있습니다. 따라서 스트레스를 줄이고 더 편안하게 영어로 의사소통할 수 있는 방법을 익힐 수 있습니다. 영어 회화 연습은 언어를 배우는 핵심이므로, 이 비디오에서 배운 내용을 적극 활용해 보세요.

문맥 속 문법 및 표현

  • “I went to a new coffee shop” - 장소를 소개할 때 유용한 표현입니다. 여행이나 외출에 관한 대화에서 자주 사용됩니다.
  • “I know exactly the kind of place” - 특정 장소에 대한 확신을 나타내는 표현으로, 대화 중 상대방과 교감할 수 있는 좋은 방법입니다.
  • “Try to speak more English” - 영어 학습 목표를 설정할 때 유용한 구조로, 자신의 학습 과정에 대해 이야기할 때 사용할 수 있습니다.

이러한 표현들은 특히 IELTS 스피킹 시험 준비에도 도움을 줄 수 있습니다. 문맥 속에서 실제로 사용해 보며 영어 실력을 향상시키세요.

일반적인 발음 함정

비디오에서 발음과 관련하여 주의해야 할 몇 가지 어려운 단어와 표현이 있습니다. 예를 들어, “coffee shop”의 발음은 종종 혼동을 일으킬 수 있습니다. 초보자들은 이 단어를 정확히 발음하기 어려워하는 경우가 많습니다. “이럴 때는 어딘가에 갈 필요가 있다”라는 문장을 사용할 때, ‘need to go’의 발음에도 주의해야 합니다. 영어 발음 교정의 일환으로, 이러한 표현을 다시 듣고 반복 연습하는 것이 좋습니다.

비디오에서 제공되는 다양한 대화를 통해 자연스러운 억양과 리듬을 체득할 수 있으며, shadowspeak 방식을 통해 해외 여행 시에도 쉽게 소통할 수 있는 능력을 기를 수 있습니다. 당신의 발음을 개선하고 말하기 능력을 소음 없이 연습하세요.

이 영상의 문법

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

문형영상 속 표현
현재완료진행 have/has been + -ing — 전에 시작해 지금도 계속되는 동작I've been trying · you've been working
현재완료 have/has + 과거분사 — 과거의 일이 지금도 관련이 있을 때have learned · have said · have found
수동태 be + 과거분사 — 누가 하는지보다 무슨 일이 일어나는지에 초점is closed · are lost
과거진행 was/were + -ing — 과거의 어느 시점에 진행 중이던 동작were driving · were going · was visiting

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.
