쉐도잉 연습: 💬 Chatting | IELTS Speaking Part 1 | Model Answers and Vocabulary (2025) - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

Hello, sunshine, I'm Maria.

And my name is Rory, and we're the hosts of the IELTS Speaking for Success podcast, the podcast that aims to help you improve your speaking skills as well as your listening skills along the way.

We've started this podcast to give you gorgeous grammar and fabulous vocabulary for your high IELTS school.

Oh, Rory, you're late again.

I know, I'm sorry, I was chatting with the postman.

Chatting with a postman?

Shall we talk about chatting?

Chatting?

Yes, let's talk about chatting.

Yes, chatting.

But before we talk about chatting, Maria, we are going to talk about chatting, but do you have any predictions for what I might chat about?

You might chat about chatting to your friends, to students.

Maybe you sometimes get tired of chatting and you don't like this, you know, like empty, useless chatter when you're just about nothing.

You want it to be productive and meaningful.

All right.

So, Maria's predictions.

Let's see how right she is then.

Let's go.

Do you like chatting with friends?

Assuming there's nothing else we should be doing, yeah.

Who doesn't like a good chinwag with their pals?

We don't often see each other, so it's a good way to catch up.

What do you usually chat about with friends?

Other than catching up on all the latest gossip?

Just the usual things, like maybe work drama or anything related to what we're doing.

It could be about climbing, for example, if I'm with my friends for doing that.

Maybe a conversation piece if we're at a gallery or something like that.

Do you argue with friends?

Well, I think everybody has disagreements at some point, but it's usually just a difference of opinion and not like a full-blown row or anything like that.

I think that would be a bit of a particular or at least a conversation stopper.

Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?

I think it depends on what I'm doing and who I'm talking to, really.

If it's one of my friends, I think it feels more authentic to chat in person, unless it's something like organizing when to meet up.

But if it's some random I've never met in my life, then I think social media can be good for keeping them at a healthy distance until I get to know them better.

Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?

I don't know, really.

I think I'm generally good at managing table talk when I'm with people, but at the same time I'd quite like just blethering away with my one best friend.

Especially with the kind of banter we have, not everyone would get it and they might feel left out of the conversation.

Yeah, these questions are a bit strange.

Do you like chatting with friends?

Do you argue with your friends?

Do you like your friends?

Doesn't everybody?

Oh yeah, well, IELTS, dear listener, what can we say?

Just don't take these questions seriously, all right?

Just chatting.

So, we chat with somebody.

Chat or we talk to people.

We can chat to people as well.

Chat to people, chat with people.

Speaking of words beginning with CH, we can have a chin wag.

Chin wag.

What's that?

Dear listener, it's informal and it's British English, okay?

it's not american it's british so it means a chat chinwag like the jaw is going up and down

we got together for a good old chinwag to have a chat so we got together to have a chat

like have a chat like we met to have a chat or we met for a good old

chinwag a long and pleasant conversation between friends we had a good chinwag over a bottle

of wine it's a good way to catch up catch up is your phrasal verb of this topic

which means to talk to each other to share the recent news we can also catch up on things

catch up on the latest gossip if you don't like gossip you can catch up on news yeah we usually

catch up on gossip we usually catch up on news on studies so we just we discuss we meet we

discuss things we have a chat and you can use it as a noun a catch up with friends

or family so a meeting or a conversation yeah and we catch up on the latest

gossip the latest so the recent gossip and gossip like something they're not very

nice but when you talk about other people's private lives we catch up on

the latest gossip we catch up on some juicy gossip some interesting intimate

details about other people yeah and we talk about work or work drama, some, you know, like dramas that happen at work, what we're usually doing.

It could be about swimming, sports, studies, work, money, anything.

And another synonym is a conversation.

We usually have a chat or have a conversation about...

Sometimes we argue with friends or roi what's a phrasal verb that you can use to mean argue

to have a row and if it's a serious one a full-blown row oh to have a row with friends yeah

like i never have a row with friends yeah or fall out you can say like i never fall out

with my family with my friends or sometimes I fall out with my friends or I fell out with my friends over something, right?

Like because of something.

Like sometimes we have a disagreement, but it's not something serious.

It's not like a full-blown row, as I always said, like a serious argument.

And if we had a row, it would be a mood A nice one.

Imagine you get together with your friends and then you disagree with someone, you start having a row, and it's a mood killer.

It kills all the mood hmm it makes us unhappy unengaged with things yeah and it might stop the

conversation so it would be a conversation stopper but that's just a word for bringing the conversation to an

end yeah like that argument was a real mood killer at the party or his negative comments were a mood killer during the meeting

Nice.

Yeah, a conversation stopper.

Like somebody starts talking about politics.

That's it.

Stopped all the conversation.

Conversation stopper.

A conversation stopper.

A remark or a comment that stops the natural flow of conversation.

I prefer to chat face to face or I prefer to chat via social media or on social media, okay?

I usually chat on Facebook, on Telegram, on Instagram.

I usually use different messengers.

Messengers?

100

Messengers, yeah.

101

Like Telegram, WhatsApp or something else.

102

And it depends who I'm talking to and why.

103

It feels more authentic to chat in person.

104

So you can say chat face-to-face or chat with a person.

105

Offline, face-to-face.

106

But if it's some random people I've never met in my life, I chat to them on social media.

107

I keep a healthy distance.

108

So I keep away from them.

109

Maybe keep them at arm's length, which is an idiom.

110

Yeah, nice.

111

So I keep them at a distance.

112

So I keep them at an arm's length.

113

length until I get to know them better.

114

So get to know people.

115

Or you can say I usually use social media to get to know them better and then we chat in person.

116

I'm good at managing table talk.

117

That is just conversation when you are at the table.

118

Like at a meal or something.

119

Yeah you have like ten people.

120

And how do you manage to talk to everybody you can say i'm i'm bad at managing table

121

talk so i prefer to talk to one person only or i'm good at talking to different people at

122

the same time so i'm good at managing table talk and another one is this verb starts with b rory what did you say it's a bit strange

123

blether blethering blethering is just chatting away about nothing in particular

124

yeah a blether or blether like it could be e or a so in uk it's blether with an e but

125

it's called it can also be blether with an a to talk for a long time in a silly or annoying way Oh, stop blathering.

126

Stop saying nonsense.

127

Or just like chatting about nothing, you know, in particular.

128

Or I'm fine blathering on about anything.

129

Or if Rory starts speaking about nothing, I'm going to say like, Oh Rory, what on earth are you blathering on about?

130

Or blithering on about.

131

Blithering, yeah.

132

133

But I never do that.

134

Not ever.

135

Not even one time, Maria.

136

Never on the podcast.

137

Never, nope.

138

But you know, like when I catch up with my friends, I quite like just blathering away to my best friend.

139

And this kind of banter, which is another B word, also about talking, chatting, banter.

140

Informal conversation.

141

Yeah, conversation that is funny, not serious.

142

Again, not serious, just chatting, you know, like this usual banter.

143

And could you please use a banter in a sentence, please?

144

Well, everybody likes to have banter with their friends.

145

You probably don't like to have banter with your parents so much because it's very informal and some people prefer to be more formal with the parents.

146

And you need to be very careful with workplace banter because it could really accidentally offend some people.

147

Yay!

148

And also dear listener, these days a lot of people chat to chat GPT.

149

They do.

150

Yeah, when they're lonely, when they need therapy, when, I don't know, they just want to have a chat.

151

They chat to ChatGPT or some other AI, so you can talk about that.

152

I sometimes talk to ChatGPT, like it's my friend.

153

All right.

154

Okay.

155

Talking about things we chat about, Maria, you made some predictions, but did they come true?

156

Nothing about being bored.

157

and actually I said that you don't like useless chat, like you don't like banter but actually you're fine with banter and like you're fine blathering away I did talk about my friends did I talk about my students?

158

no, no, no, you didn't talk about your students actually and then did I talk about being bored?

159

no, no so it's a 50-50 prediction so far maybe the listeners did better, who knows however, thank you for chatting with us we'll see you in the next episode bye

160

Bye.

161

Do you like chatting with friends?

162

Assuming there's nothing else we should be doing, yeah.

163

Who doesn't like a good chinwag with their pals?

164

We don't often see each other, so it's a good way to catch up.

165

What do you usually chat about with friends?

166

Other than catching up on all the latest gossip?

167

Just the usual things, like maybe work drama or anything related to what we're doing.

168

It could be about claiming, for example, if I'm with my friends for doing that.

169

Maybe a conversation piece if we're at a gallery or something like that.

170

Do you argue with friends?

171

Well, I think everybody has disagreements at some point, but it's usually just a difference of opinion and not like a full-blown row or anything like that.

172

I think that would be a bit of a mood cooler or at least a conversation stopper.

173

Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?

174

I think it depends on what I'm doing and who I'm talking to, really.

175

If it's one of my friends, I think it feels more authentic to chat in person, unless it's something like organizing when to meet up.

176

But if it's some random I've never met in my life, then I think social media can be good for keeping them at a healthy distance until I get to know them better.

177

Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?

178

I don't know, really.

179

I think I'm generally good at managing table talk when I'm with people, but at the same time I'd quite like just blethering away with my one best friend.

180

Especially with the kind of banter we have, not everyone would get it and they might feel left out of the conversation.

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.
