Hello my friends, it's Keith from the Keith Speaking Academy.

Haha, new name, new look.

But I'm still here to help you speak better English and prepare for the IELTS Speaking Test.

So today we're going to be looking at the topic of homes.

Not Sherlock homes, but homes as in houses, flats, apartments, accommodation.

We'll be looking at how you can speak confidently and fluently on this topic.

Let's do it.

So as I mentioned, I'm still here to help you prepare for the IELTS Speaking Test.

All of my material now is moving to the new website www.keithspeakingacademy.com.

Check me out there.

First of all, though, what is the difference between home and house?

In some languages, it's the same word.

Well, very simply, a house is a building.

It's a physical place where you live.

A home is much more than that, right?

It's a place often you associate with family, with feelings, with emotion, a sense of belonging.

So the house is just the building.

The home is where you...

It's the house and everything else around it, the emotion and feeling.

Great.

Now, watching this video is great, but it would be even better if you could practice the language with a teacher.

somebody to give you feedback and encouragement as you're doing it.

And what better place than Cambly?

Great.

With that, let's get into the lesson.

So I wonder, what kind of accommodation do you live in?

Many people live in a house or some kind of a house, right?

So we can have a detached house, which is a house that is just on its own.

Some people live in a semi-detached house, often called a townhouse in American English, like this.

Some people may live in a terraced house, a bit like this, where the houses are all joined together in a row, very common in a lot of areas of England.

Some people live in a house that only has one floor.

My dad actually lives in a house like this and it's called a bungalow.

Looks a bit like this.

Now you may live in a flat or an apartment, in which case the building you live in could be a block of flats or an apartment block.

Sometimes when it's quite luxurious or more expensive, it's called a condominium.

And just generally, you could say a high-rise building, especially if there's like, you know, 15, 20, 30 floors.

Some of these big high-rise buildings.

And then inside, you've got your flat or your apartment.

To be honest, these words are used very much the same with the same meaning.

We can talk about, for example, a two bedroom flat or a three bedroom flat.

Right?

So we could say, you know, if somebody says, what kind of accommodation do you live in?

Well, I live in a three bedroom flat on the sixth floor of a seven story building.

That's actually where I live.

Notice when we say a seven-story building, seven-story is like an adjective, so it doesn't take an S, right?

We don't say seven-stories building.

No, a seven-story building.

I live in a 20-story building.

I live in a nine-story building.

And then you can say the floor, I live on the second floor, the third floor, the fourth floor, and so on.

Right.

Excellent.

If you're a student, it may be that you live in rented accommodation or a rented house, or you rent a room in a house or a flat.

Right.

Very often, students may be in a studio or in England, we call it a bedsit.

which is really it's one room where you have the bed, the kitchen and everything together except the bathroom

which will be the toilet will be kind of separate normally or attached to that room.

Generally speaking you can say as a student I live in student accommodation or more colloquially I live in student digs.

Digs just means accommodation probably a student hat, hat, hat, a student hat, no, a student house or a student flat.

Rented house, rented flat.

Great.

Now that's all well and good.

But if people ask you, you know, do you like where you live?

You want to be thinking about collocations.

So adjectives that go together to describe where you live.

So speaking positively, you could say, I live in a really comfy flat on the seventh floor of a high-rise building.

A really comfy flat.

Comfy just means comfortable.

You could also say, I live in a spacious flat.

Spacious meaning with lots of space or room, right?

I live in a spacious flat.

Notice the stress on the key adjective word, right?

Repeat with me.

I live in a spacious flat.

We almost hesitate, right?

I live in a spacious flat.

It's like you're going up and hitting the word spacious or stressing the word, right?

Listen again.

I live in a spacious flat.

Try another one.

I live in a comfy flat.

Or even, I live in a spacious and comfy flat.

Great.

Another nice word is cosy.

100

A cosy flat.

101

Cosy just means small and comfortable, right?

102

This is a very cosy flat.

103

In fact, if you want to be polite, right, you go to somebody's flat and it's really small, you can say, oh, it's really cosy flat.

104

It means it's small but comfortable.

105

However, if it's small and uncomfortable, we would say it's cramped, right?

106

Cramped with that P.

107

Try that one.

108

It's a bit of a cramped flat.

109

Notice we add the it's a bit of a to make it more natural.

110

It's a bit of a cramped flat.

111

It's a bit of a cramped flat.

112

Now, you wouldn't say that to your friend, but you might say it about your own place, right?

113

Well, it's a nice flat.

114

I live on the sixth floor, but it's a bit of a cramped flat.

115

Other negative things, of course, might be noisy, right?

116

The neighbours are so noisy, right?

117

It's a bit of a cramped flat.

118

The neighbours are really noisy.

119

I don't like it very much.

120

It is funny sometimes.

121

I notice with students when I ask them, do you like your house?

122

Sometimes they say, yes, it has a kitchen.

123

It has a lounge.

124

It has a dining area.

125

I have two bedrooms.

126

And they start listing the rooms in the house.

127

Now, that's nice to show that you know that vocabulary, but it's not really telling me what you like about the house.

128

It would be much better to say, what I really like about my house is the living room.

129

It's nice and spacious and really comfy.

130

Right?

131

Picking out one room

132

and maybe saying what I really like is da da da da right try

133

that with me what I really like is you notice the

134

hmm what I really like is great what I really like is the lounge

135

which is nice and comfy and really spacious right

136

so focus on what you like

137

if somebody asks you what you like don't give them a list of the rooms

138

that will show you're a beginner student let's move on

139

so there are some nice collocations we can use to describe different parts of the house, right?

140

For example, if your bedroom has a bathroom attached to the bedroom, we call that an en-suite bathroom.

141

Sometimes when you go to a hotel, you often have an en-suite bathroom.

142

There are different bedrooms.

143

And of course, the biggest bedroom normally for the parents, unless your children are controlling you is the master bedroom.

144

That's the big one that may have a king size bed or a queen size bed.

145

Now, that doesn't mean there's a bed for the woman and a bed for the man.

146

It just means the size.

147

The king size bed is the bigger one.

148

Queen size bed is still pretty big, but maybe not as big.

149

Moving into the kitchen, quite fashionable nowadays, especially in America and the UK, is to have an open plan kitchen, right?

150

An open plan kitchen.

151

When I was living in China, we didn't have an open plan kitchen because I think very often cooking in the kitchen,

152

people like to fry and all the fumes come out and you want to close that door, right?

153

Otherwise, all the fumes and the smoke is going to come into the living area or the dining area.

154

Whereas I guess nowadays, especially in England, we tend to fry less.

155

Many families fry less because of the move towards a healthier lifestyle and healthier eating.

156

So this kind of open plan kitchen is great if you're not frying a lot.

157

And it looks really good, right?

158

You've got this, what we call the island in the middle.

159

It's like a little table where you can prepare the food.

160

And then you've got your stove to cook on or the oven if you're going to do, you know, roast chicken or something like that.

161

So kitchens and that kind of kitchen, I would say it has a modern look.

162

Right.

163

So you may want to say what I like about my flat.

164

Right.

165

Is the kitchen.

166

We have this wonderful, spacious, open plan kitchen.

167

And it's got a really modern look.

168

We've even got a little island in the middle for food preparation.

169

It's great.

170

You even have to say it's great at the end. So the kitchen.

171

What about the living area?

172

So maybe the living area, nice and spacious.

173

Again, living areas might have comfy sofas with fluffy cushions.

174

maybe you've got fluffy cushions it could be a colorful room

175

or a room full of contrasting colors right and probably with a few decorations or ornaments on the bookshelves on the tables

176

decorations could be you know pictures hanging on the wall it could be ornaments plants

177

table lamps floor lamps all of

178

that stuff you might even have a rug right on the floor often next to the coffee table

179

or next to the sofa people have a rug on the floor especially

180

if you've got a tiled floor

181

which can be quite cold a rug makes it warmer in england many many houses have carpets on the floor.

182

So from one wall to another wall, completely covering the floor, that is a carpet.

183

Super fluffy, super warm, especially in the winter.

184

And of course you could say a well-lit living room.

185

If you've got lots of light coming through, you may have a French window.

186

Those windows that open out like a door onto the garden, if you have a garden,

187

or onto your balcony, if you're lucky enough to have a balcony where you can sit outside

188

and have a cup of tea.

189

Nice, eh?

190

Moving on.

191

Sometimes people may ask you about your accommodation.

192

How long have you live there or have you always lived there

193

and here well if you ask me

194

that I would say actually I've been living here for about three years now

195

and I used to live in another country country x

196

and there we lived in a condominium we had quite a

197

spacious flat I remember it was on the 20th floor of a really high-rise building.

198

I remember it because I got a bit nervous standing on the balcony so high up.

199

But now where we live, well, we're on the sixth floor and it's a smaller flat but really comfy.

200

And what I like most about it is blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

201

Or you may be honest and right and say, well, actually, where I live now, it's not as spacious as before.

202

It's a nice comparison.

203

Not as spacious as before.

204

Not as as before.

205

And if the truth be told, it's a little bit cramped.

206

if the truth be told.

207

It's a nice expression just to say you're being frank and you're telling the truth.

208

Or it's like, to be honest, it's a little bit cramp.

209

Or to tell you the truth, it's a little bit cramp.

210

So all of these expressions mean to be honest or frankly speaking, right?

211

To tell you the truth.

212

If the truth be told, between you and me, it's a bit like a secret, right?

213

Between you and me, it's a little bit cramped.

214

Frankly speaking, it's a little bit cramped.

215

So a nice expression you can use to introduce something that maybe is a bit negative about where you live.

216

Other useful comparison language could be It's much bigger than where we are now

217

There was far more room where we used to live It was just way more spacious where we were before

218

it had a lot more mod cons than what we have now

219

mod cons just means modern comforts

220

so the mod cons of a flat are normally the air

221

conditioning the tv the oven the stove the central heating the things the modern things

222

that give you comfort in a flat, right?

223

So typically we can say it has all the mod cons, right?

224

You would expect a modern flat to have all the mod cons and to be fully furnished, probably.

225

Brilliant.

226

So this is how we can talk about homes and houses, flats and apartments.

227

I hope this helps.

228

What about you?

229

What is your home like?

이 비디오와 함께 말하기 연습을 해야 하는 이유는?

IELTS 스피킹 시험 준비를 위해서는 실제 원어민의 발음을 듣고 이를 따라 하는 것이 매우 중요합니다. 이 비디오는 집과 숙소라는 주제를 통해 영어 회화 연습에 실질적인 도움을 줍니다. 비디오를 보면서 그들의 대화 방식, 발음 및 어휘를 학습할 수 있으며, 이는 스피킹 능력 향상에 큰 도움이 됩니다. 특히, 본문에서 강조한 ‘home’과 ‘house’의 차이를 이해하는 것은 일상적인 대화에서도 유용할 것입니다. 감정과 소속감을 포함하는 ‘home’의 개념은 더 깊이 있는 대화를 이끌어낼 수 있는 기회를 제공합니다.

문맥 속 문법 및 표현

이 비디오에서 사용된 몇 가지 핵심 구조는 다음과 같습니다:

"What kind of accommodation do you live in?" - 이 질문은 다양한 숙소 형태에 대해 이야기할 때 유용합니다. 질문 구조를 익혀두면 대화 시 자연스럽게 사용할 수 있습니다.
"Some people may live in a flat or an apartment." - ‘may’는 가능성을 표현하는 데 유용하며, 다양한 선택지를 제시할 때 사용됩니다.
"A detached house..." - 각종 집의 유형을 설명할 때 명확한 용어를 사용하는 것이 중요합니다. ‘detached house’, ‘bungalow’와 같은 전문 용어를 익히면 대화의 깊이가 더해집니다.

자주 헷갈리는 발음 함정

비디오에서의 발음과 악센트는 영어 학습자에게 도전이 될 수 있습니다. 특히 다음과 같은 단어와 표현에 주의해야 합니다:

"accommodation" - 이 단어는 발음이 종종 헷갈릴 수 있으므로, 여러 번 듣고 따라 해보세요.
"detached house" - ‘detached’라는 단어는 빠르게 발음될 때 음절이 잘 분리되지 않아 이해하기 어려울 수 있습니다.
"bungalow" - 이 단어는 특히 비영어권 학습자에게 낯설 수 있으므로, 정확한 발음을 반복 연습하는 것이 중요합니다.

이와 같은 발음 연습은 영어 발음 교정에도 큰 도움이 될 것입니다. 유튜브 영어 공부를 통해 효과적으로 리스닝 및 스피킹 능력을 향상시키세요!

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.
