레슨 만드는 중...
1
Hey guys, it's Syd.
2
Please don't take offense to this, but I do not want to film this video because I don't want to clean, okay?
3
What happened?
4
I don't know.
5
When my room or my apartment gets messy, I have this weird mentality that if it's already messy, what's the harm in continuing to add to the mess?
6
This is bad.
7
Don't do this.
8
I was trying to like get motivated.
9
So I was watching YouTube videos of like people cleaning their room
10
and I was like why don't I make my own video it holds me accountable you know
11
and maybe it will inspire you guys I can see behind
12
you guys I know it's a mess behind there I don't really want to show the before to be honest
13
welcome back to my kitchen the thing that is most urgent in here is really to organize my cabinets
14
there's no rhyme or reason to this.
15
Everything is kind of just scattered.
16
Like even the spice cabinet is looking pretty rough as you can clearly see.
17
And same with my fridge.
18
So I'm going to go through clean, organize.
19
The question is what do I put on while I clean?
20
I'm thinking Drake's new album.
21
i wish it was as easy as i'm making it look
22
right now unfortunately this is sped up i think times 30 this whole process took me two hours is
23
that like is that embarrassing i don't know i will say i don't know
24
if it's like something about turning 25 or what's changed
25
but i really enjoyed organizing my pantry i don't know something about it was
26
so satisfying but amidst my organizing i did get a text from my grandpa
27
which stopped me in my tracks
28
because he texted me a picture of a girl in a
29
newspaper saying does she somewhat look like an older version of you mid 30s age
30
and it was a picture of demi lovato
31
so this kind of caught me off guard i responded wait what
32
and then he said well of course she doesn't have your ever-present smile
33
and then proceeded to send me another photo of her wikipedia
34
in all of my years of living i have never once been told
35
that i look like demi lovato
36
so basically the entire time i was cleaning i was just contemplating do i look like demi Lovato.
37
Does my grandpa know me better than anyone else
38
and that's why no one has said this or do I absolutely nothing like her?
39
I do love Demi Lovato and Camp Rock.
40
Then I decided to assemble a little snack basket.
41
This is not ordinarily a routine for me
42
but my family was coming to visit and I just wanted to put together a little quick easy snack basket for them.
43
Guys I messed up.
44
It's the next day.
45
Yesterday after I finished my kitchen which took two and a half hours I took the night off And seriously, like I'm actually done with myself.
46
Like this needs to end now.
47
I already know this is going to be quite the journey in here because I have laundry, I have deep cleaning, I have organizing so many layers of things to be done.
48
I just want to make this a little bit fun for myself you know what
49
that means i'm really
50
predictable i feel like we need a
51
little game plan what makes the most sense i think is to start with stripping my bed
52
and doing my laundry i have guys literally so much laundry.
53
This thing is filled to the brim.
54
I have been putting off clearly doing this and I also need to wash my sheets.
55
It takes a little bit of time
56
so obviously I figure I should start there and then clean the rest of my room while my laundry is going.
57
This is a good plan.
58
laundry room.
59
So unfortunately it
60
does look 10 times worse and not better.
61
I also think I broke a record.
62
The fact that I have five loads of laundry going right now.
63
It feels like a luxury to me to be able to have multiple loads going at the same time, even though they're not my laundry machines.
64
They're communal.
65
The next thing I'm going to do is just go through my room and pick up just like a general cleanup.
66
I need to get rid of some piles.
67
Let's start.
68
I've been listening to the new Drake album while I've been cleaning which has made this so much more enjoyable.
69
I'm starting to feel a little bit better because I'm seeing visual progress.
70
It's what I really needed to motivate me.
71
I just got a notification that my five loads of laundry are done
72
So i'm gonna go move them from the washer to the dryer
73
So that washing machine is out of order my clothes are literally in a river Oh,
74
no, oh, no, you know, I guess I was bound for one of the five washers
75
to go wrong It was just too good to be true I did have to call management.
76
They had to put a wet floor sign out.
77
It was a whole thing because the whole floor was like flooded with water.
78
Anyways, I had to rewash that load, put the rest in the dryer.
79
I don't have any pet peeves, but one of them is when people don't clean the lint filter after doing their laundry.
80
Maybe that's just me.
81
It's not common knowledge, but I have been putting this desk off for about six months.
82
Every single time I open these drawers to do my makeup it reminds me
83
that i need to organize it in my mind i was saving this until i filmed this video
84
so i just it was like an excuse for me to put it off
85
because i was like i'm gonna film it i'm gonna film it
86
and now here we are i have no excuse i definitely
87
have some like old dried up makeup in here I have some things that I should probably toss.
88
Sometimes I forget there's like an actual expiration date for makeup.
89
So I'm just going to go through all this.
90
This is what it looks like currently.
91
I'm going to time myself and hopefully I can do this in like 15 minutes
92
because it's more fun when I set a timer for some reason in my head. so the
93
thing is this probably seems like it's not taking that long
94
because you're watching a condensed version but i can't believe
95
that i thought that that could take me 15 minutes i'm so delusional It took me like an hour.
96
I have this problem where I always underestimate how long something's
97
gonna take me Maybe it's like me being a little bit arrogant thinking
98
that I can do more than I can
99
and now I'm gonna make my bed I think it's universally like accepted at this point
100
that the worst chore of all time is putting your fitted
101
sheet on your bed There is just like absolutely nothing worse than that.
102
So For some unfortunate reason,
103
my headboard attracts so much dust.
104
I don't know if you can really see what I'm talking about.
105
Just trust me, it's there.
106
Anyways, a little hack that I discovered, not really a hack.
107
I just use this lint roller every once in a while
108
when I'm kind of like doing a deep clean and just go over the whole headboard.
109
A lint roller can really be used for more than just clothes,
110
guys a good lint roller is essential this was just from like 20 of the bed i've covered
111
Okay, update.
112
It is looking so much better in here.
113
Knowing that I get to sleep in this bed tonight with fresh sheets is making me so excited.
114
Like, I just want to go to bed right now.
115
Oh my gosh.
116
I think I have about half of my closet in laundry to fold.
117
While the sun is setting, I thought this would be a perfect time to not only fold this giant pile of clothes, but also do a little advice sesh.
118
Whenever I see like a request and I like it, I'll screenshot it.
119
So I have a little folder in my phone now.
120
Hey Sid, I was in a three-year relationship and we broke up six months ago.
121
I'm still struggling to move on completely.
122
I know there's no way we can get back together with each other.
123
It's hard because of all the amazing memories we shared and it was a beautiful relationship.
124
Can you give me advice on how to move on?
125
Going through a breakup is like one of the worst things ever.
126
I remember when I've gone through like a couple periods like this, I felt probably the most alone I've ever felt.
127
And I think what's helped me the most in the past is, first of all, time.
128
So cliche, but really time does heal.
129
And also realizing that what you're probably really holding onto more than the person is the memories that you guys shared, which is normal.
130
And I think nowadays people try to like convince themselves
131
that they need to get over a breakup in a certain amount of time Like I see on tiktok.
132
There's all these like time frames like how to get over your ex in like two weeks
133
And that's just like not how it works.
134
You can't put a time frame on it To be honest
135
six months is still pretty fresh for a three-year relationship I think something that's really helped me too is
136
that some people really are only meant to be in your life for a season
137
And once they serve their purpose that season ends It's one of those things that in the moment it's so hard, but then once you're on the other side Maybe a few
138
months maybe a few years later You always look back or at least from my experience.
139
I always look back and i'm like so grateful that that happened
140
And for me personally a lot of my faith has really
141
played a role in like dealing with situations like this
142
because Praying and reading my bible during those times are honestly like what brought me A lot of peace.
143
I would say the one thing is don't go insane trying
144
yourself to like force yourself to not think about it
145
because the second you try to not think about your ex and the breakup, you're gonna start thinking about it 10 times more.
146
I would just try to fill up your time with things that you enjoy.
147
Your friends obviously are huge, I think, in times like this.
148
And just like let each day pass.
149
Don't put pressure on like your healing timeline.
150
Suddenly like weeks pass and months pass and then one day you'll wake up
151
and go through the day and realize you went through like a whole day without thinking about them at all.
152
Every single relationship serves a purpose, whether you realize it in the moment or not.
153
Always learn something that kind of prepares you for the next person that you're meant to be with.
154
And hopefully that's forever.
155
When certain things ended and I was maybe upset about it, I look back and I am like so, so thankful that they ended.
156
Not out of spite or anything, but just seeing how my life has evolved and how things played out and who I'm with now,
157
like none of that would have happened if I would have still been with the person I was with before.
158
Personally, I think everything happens for a reason.
159
I feel like god really knows what's best for you
160
and it's hard to see it in the moment And I just trust that he knows what's best for me.
161
Anyways, I wish I could give you a big hug Go get some ice cream right now
162
because you just do it go get like a little sweet treat I have
163
so much more laundry to fold help All right
164
That was the last step in cleaning my apartment I put all my clothes back.
165
The feeling you get when you deep clean is like the most stress relieving thing.
166
Going to bed that night, I felt so good.
167
And this was definitely needed.
168
And so it was an outro, but I forgot to do it.
169
Thanks for watching.
170
Love you guys.
171
And I'll see you in my next video.
172
Bye.

이 영상을 통해 말하기 연습을 하는 이유는?

이 영상은 청소라는 일상적인 주제를 다루지만, 그 안에는 영어 회화 연습에 유용한 내용이 가득합니다. 주인공이 자신의 아파트를 청소하는 과정을 통해 다양한 감정과 생각을 표현하는 모습을 볼 수 있습니다. 이러한 자연스러운 대화는 일상 대화에서 자주 나타나는 표현과 문장 구조를 익히기에 적합합니다. 따라서 이 영상을 통해 영어 회화 연습을 하면서 실제 대화 상황에서 사용할 수 있는 표현들을 습득할 수 있습니다. 또한, 자신이 혼자 있을 때도 shadow speech영어 쉐도잉을 통해 보다 효과적으로 말하기 연습을 할 수 있습니다.

문맥 속에서의 문법 및 표현

영상을 통해 몇 가지 중요한 문법 구조와 표현을 분석해 보겠습니다:

  • 가정법을 이용한 표현: "If it's already messy, what's the harm in continuing to add to the mess?" - 이 표현은 상황을 가정하며 그에 대한 반응을 설명합니다. 영어 회화에서 가정법을 사용하면 보다 세련된 대화를 나눌 수 있습니다.
  • 현재 진행형: "I am trying to get motivated." - 현재 진행형을 사용해 현재 진행 중인 행동을 표현하는 것은 일상적인 대화에서 매우 흔하게 사용됩니다.
  • 감정 표현: "I really enjoyed organizing my pantry." - 감정을 나타내는 문장 구조는 상대방과의 공감을 형성하는 데 도움을 줍니다.
  • 비교 표현: "Does she somewhat look like an older version of you?" - 비교 구조를 사용해 사람이나 사물을 비교할 때 자주 쓰이는 형태입니다.

일반적인 발음 함정

영어 회화에서는 발음이 중요한 요소입니다. 이 영상에서도 몇 가지 발음이 주의가 필요합니다:

  • “organized”와 “organizing”: 이 단어들은 발음할 때 종종 혼동이 발생할 수 있습니다. 특히 “org” 부분이 명확하게 발음되지 않을 수 있으니 주의해야 합니다.
  • “grandpa”: “grandpa”와 “grandmother”의 발음 차이를 인식하는 것이 중요합니다. 특히 미국식 발음에 익숙해지면 더 자연스러운 대화를 할 수 있습니다.
  • 억양: 영상에서 주인공의 억양은 편안하고 친근하게 느껴집니다. 자신의 억양을 수정하고 싶다면, shadowspeak를 통해 주인공의 억양을 따라 해 보세요.

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.
