12
It is my gift to you.
13
All of today's important everyday phrases are about chores.
14
Do you know what chores are?
15
Chores are the activities that you do usually to make your house a clean and tidy place.
16
These are necessary, but not always fun, right?
17
But it's a necessary part of life.
18
So we're going to talk about 10 of those today and two bonus phrases.
19
Usually I don't add bonus phrases to these lessons,
20
but today you have two bonus phrases.
21
All right, let's get started.
22
The first phrase that I use every day is this,
23
to make the bed.
24
After I wake up, I try really hard to make the bed.
25
Do you make the bed?
26
I think this is a typical thing that parents tell their children.
27
Don't forget to make your bed.
28
At least that's how it is culturally in the US.
29
I don't always make my bed,
30
but let me tell you,
31
when I make my bed, my bedroom feels clean.
32
It feels ready to go on to the next step,
33
the rest of my day.
34
Let me know in the comments if you make your bed every day.
35
The second phrase I use every day is to get dressed.
36
Every day I choose what I wear and then I get dressed.
37
This usually depends on the weather,
38
what activities I'm doing that day,
39
and what I have clean.
40
If there is a pile of dirty laundry,
41
well, I don't have many choices for what I'm going to wear,
42
so I need to get dressed with the clothes that I have available.
43
Phrase number three is to pack a lunch.
44
Every morning, my husband packs my son his lunch.
45
Is this something that's common in your country?
46
In the U.S at school, there are two options.
47
You can eat the school lunch,
48
the lunch that the school provides,
49
or you can bring your own lunch.
50
And if you bring your own lunch,
51
you first need to pack your lunch.
52
This is similar to the phrase to pack a suitcase suitcase.
53
When you go on a trip, what do you do?
54
You need to pack a suitcase.
55
Well, same for a lunch.
56
You need to pack a lunch if you're not going to get the lunch that the school provides.
57
And this is pretty common in the US
58
that a lot of kids will pack a lunch and bring it to school to eat.
59
You might even do this at the office.
60
In fact, a lot of people do this at the office.
61
It's expensive to go out to eat every day for lunch.
62
So maybe you you don't even have enough time to do that.
63
So a lot of people who are going into work will pack a lunch
64
so that they can eat it during their lunch break.
65
Phrase number four is to throw clothes in the washer.
66
Now, are we really throwing clothes like a baseball?
67
Not really.
68
This verb just implies that we're doing it quickly without much thought.
69
So clothes washing is my job.
70
It is my job to wash the clothes in our house,
71
and it is my husband's job to do the dishes.
72
We'll talk about that later.
73
This is a pretty good split because they are both big tasks that need done all the time.
74
So when it is time for the clothes to get washed,
75
what do I do?
76
I put everything in the laundry basket,
77
and I throw the clothes in the washer.
78
Just a little note, you can say washing machine.
79
I'm going to throw them in the washing machine.
80
This is absolutely acceptable and we just have two options,
81
the washer or the washing machine.
82
Phrase number five that I use every day and it might apply to your country or it might not.
83
It is to move clothes to the dryer.
84
A lot of countries don't use a dryer.
85
Instead, you hang up your clothes.
86
But in the US, it is most common to have a dryer.
87
So this is one of the tasks of doing laundry.
88
You need to throw the clothes in the washer.
89
And then when the washer is done,
90
you need to move the clothes to the dryer.
91
Unfortunately, this is something that I often forget.
92
So overnight, the clothes are sitting wet in the washer.
93
And when I go to bed and I'm laying in bed,
94
I sometimes remember, I forgot to move the clothes to the dryer.
95
and I scurry out of bed and put the clothes in the dryer because they might get moldy or stinky.
96
It's just not good for the clothes, right?
97
You need to dry them quickly after you wash them.
98
And after you have washed the clothes,
99
dried the clothes, now it's time to fold and put away the clothes.
100
I want you to notice the pronunciation of this word that I have said a lot over the last few minutes.
101
Clothes, clothes. Do you hear clothes?
102
Nope.
103
In American English, when we're speaking quickly,
104
that TH is really cut out completely.
105
It sounds exactly like close the door.
106
Close the door, I'm putting on my clothes.
107
Exact same pronunciation when we're speaking quickly in American English.
108
I think this is good news, right?
109
Because clothes with the TH is really hard to say.
110
So in this instance, you have an easy pronunciation that is actually accurate.
111
It's how we pronounce it.
112
So back to our phrase,
113
after you dry the clothes,
114
you need to fold them and put them away in the closet,
115
in a drawer, somewhere where they go.
116
You need to fold them and put them away.
117
The seventh vocabulary phrase that I use every day,
118
and you can too, is to tidy up.
119
This is a lovely phrasal verb that is something you probably should do a little bit every day.
120
We could say at the end of the day,
121
my whole family helps to tidy up the house.
122
There are probably books on the couch, food on the table.
123
I don't know what else my kids leave laying around,
124
blanket stuffed animals, toys, backpacks.
125
We all help together to tidy up the house.
126
This is not washing and scrubbing and actually making something clean.
127
Instead, this is getting all the items away where they belong.
128
You are putting things back in the place where they go.
129
You are tidying up the house.
130
In my opinion, this is something important to do as a whole family.
131
It's not just the adult's job to tidy up the house.
132
It's a good habit.
133
Teach your kids to tidy up at the end of the day.
134
It's not always fun.
135
It usually takes double or triple the length of time,
136
but it's an important skill to learn.
137
The next two phrases have to do with a job that is not mine.
138
Thank goodness.
139
The first one is to do the dishes.
140
that we use the verb do with dishes.
141
Do the dishes.
142
Every night at the end of the night,
143
Dan does the dishes and I'm so grateful.
144
And he is grateful when I do the laundry.
145
So here we're going to talk about washing the dishes,
146
which you can also say,
147
but usually we just use this general verb to do the dishes.
148
It encompasses scraping the food off the plates,
149
cleansing the dishes, making sure that they're acceptable.
150
Maybe you even do the next phrase if you're lucky.
151
Phrase number nine is to load the dishwasher.
152
I know that not everyone has a dishwasher.
153
Some countries have one and they just don't even use it.
154
Culturally, it's not a thing.
155
But in the US, it is extremely common to have a dishwasher.
156
So when you are using your dishwasher,
157
you would say, I am loading the dishes into the dishwasher,
158
or I need to load the dishwasher.
159
This is something that happens at the end of the day for us.
160
While I'm giving my kids a bath,
161
Dan is doing the dishes and loading the dishwasher.
162
That way, after the kids have gone to bed,
163
all of our chores are done.
164
Ah, such a wonderful feeling.
165
Our final 10th phrase before we talk about are two bonus phrases,
166
is not a specific chore.
167
It's something that unfortunately happens often.
168
Doing chores is not really the most fun activity, right?
169
So you might drag your feet.
170
This means not literally dragging your feet.
171
Instead, this means that you're just delaying and delaying, you're procrastinating doing chores.
172
I do this all the time.
173
You probably do this all the time too.
174
Isn't it amazing that when you have a chore that has to be done,
175
all of a sudden other things look so much more exciting.
176
Oh, I could be doing all these things instead of this chore I don't want to do.
177
So don't drag your feet,
178
just do that chore, get it done and you'll feel so much better.
179
Are you ready for our two bonus phrases?
180
I love these.
181
The first bonus phrase that I use every day in my life,
182
and you can too, is to pitch in.
183
We often use this verb pitch when talking about baseball.
184
There is a pitcher who throws the ball or he pitches the ball.
185
And it's kind of a similar idea.
186
If you pitch in, you are participating and the pitcher in baseball is throwing the ball and it begins the game.
187
So in this expression, with this expression,
188
you can use this in daily life by saying something like this.
189
When everyone pitches in, it just is so much easier to get chores done.
190
Or I try to encourage my children to pitch in every day to tidy up the house.
191
It's necessary.
192
It's something that has to be done.
193
So if everyone pitches in, it's easier.
194
And the second bonus phrase is kind of similar.
195
It is to pull your own weight.
196
My weight, pulling my weight.
197
What do you think this means?
198
Take a look at this sample sentence and I want you to guess what you think it means.
199
Everyone in this family needs to pull their own weight.
200
This is a phrase I might say if my kids complain about doing chores.
201
Mom, I don't want to do this.
202
No, we're playing.
203
No, I don't want to do that.
204
Nope.
205
I could say everyone in this family needs to pull their own weight.
206
And this simply means you're doing your share of the responsibilities, your fair share.
207
This is probably not divided equally because children can't do an equal amount that adults do,
208
but you are doing your fair share.
209
You need to pull your weight.
210
This means according to your abilities, your weight.
211
It's not your physical weight, but your capabilities.
212
My children are capable of tidying up their toys.
213
They're capable of putting the dishes in the dishwasher, loading the dishwasher.
214
They're capable of putting their clothes in the laundry basket they're capable of some chores,
215
so they should pull their own weight.
216
Now you can also use this if someone is not pulling their own weight.
217
So let's imagine that in your relationship,
218
the person that you are living with is not doing the same amount of chores as you,
219
and you think something is not working here.
220
You could approach them and say,
221
Hey, I really feel like you're not pulling your own weight.
222
I'm feeling stressed.
223
I have too many responsibilities.
224
Can you work with me to figure out how you can pull your own weight
225
so that I can feel more relieved?" Well, great.
226
What a wonderful conversation.
227
Hopefully they will be open to that
228
and able to relieve you of some chores so that you can all contribute fairly to all of the chores.
229
Well, great work.
230
You just learned 10 important phrases that I use every day about chores plus two bonus phrases,
231
two fun ones, and I want you to be able to use these in daily life.
232
So in the comments, tell me,
233
does everyone in your house pitch in and do chores together?
234
Or do they all pitch in and at least do some chores?
235
And if not, maybe it's time to rework some things so that everyone is pulling their own weight.
236

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.
