Hello, it's teacher Neil again and today we will be learning about weather

and all kinds of vocabulary and phrases and sentences that can help you for the speaking section of your IELTS test.

Now, please follow me and practice so that when you get asked questions such as, what kind of weather do you like?

Or, what is the weather like in your country?

Then, you can describe your feelings with perfect vocabulary to truly describe what you really want to express.

Right, let's get started, shall we?

First, we will be looking at hot weather.

Now anyone can say, oh I like hot weather or I don't like hot weather,

but there are many different ways to say hot.

Let's take a look.

These words are words that express very, very hot kinds of weather.

You can say, in my country it is boiling hot.

Now boil, just think about water that gets very hot and starts to bubble.

And we say it is boiling water.

So boiling hot means super hot.

Just remember that.

Sweltering is another way to say extremely hot.

But sweltering is a very British kind of word.

If you use the word, in my country, the weather is sweltering hot,

then a lot of Americans might not understand what you are talking about.

It is a very, very British expression.

Another word we can use, and this is now a noun, just remember that.

These are adjectives, a sweltering day or a boiling hot day.

A scorcher is a noun.

So we can say, oh today was a scorcher.

A scorcher of course means super super hot.

Another word you can use is a sizzler.

Now sizzler is also a British word.

So sizzler is also a noun.

So like the Americans can say, ah today has been a scorcher of a day.

The British people will say, oh oh today has been a sizzler of a day.

Just remember if you don't understand the word sizzle just think about a pan.

If you're going to put a beef patty inside of the pan it will make a sound like and that means sizzle.

So we can say and use as a noun.

Oh, today has been a sizzler.

Moving on.

The next word we have is mild.

Mild is not so hot.

Mild is a lot more medium.

So let's just write here medium.

Mild is not so hot but a little bit hot.

So we'll just say a little hot.

So we can say, oh the weather has been very mild today.

Oh the weather is so mild.

Next word we have is humid.

Now what humid means, humid means wet heat.

Wet heat.

So what that means is when you go outside it will be hot

but it is not from the sun that comes down on you.

It is actually just the water in the air that makes it more hot.

So even in humid weather

if you sit outside under a tree you will still get hot and the sweat will come out.

So we can say humid weather is very sweaty weather.

So a sentence you can use is, oh today has been so humid or I do not like humid weather at all.

I am sweating so much.

I am sweating from the humidity.

Humidity of course is the noun, humid is the adjective.

Another word we can use is warm.

Warm is very similar to the word mild, so let's just put them together like that.

Warm means not so hot.

So we can say, oh today was very warm or it is warm but it is not boiling hot.

Or we can say it was not a scorcher today but it has been warm outside.

Next up we have a heat wave.

Now what a heat wave is, just remember

when you look at the word wave it means like in the ocean the waves will come up

and go over your body.

So a heat wave means that there is a lot of heat

that is not common and it doesn't come so often

but in the weather it will show

that a heat wave a big source of heat is coming into your country for one day

or two days and now it is much more hot than usual

so you can say oh a heat wave has hit my country

and now it is boiling hot all right next moving on we have sunny spells spells

if you're not sure what that means spells is the same as the word periods and that means short time.

So sunny spells means it has been sunny a little bit.

A little bit here, a little bit here.

So a good sentence that we can use is it has been raining for a whole week

but there has been a lot of sunny spells,

meaning that there have been periods or short times of the Sun coming out.

So in conclusion, when using the heat and hot vocabulary words,

when someone asks you, what is the weather like in your country,

you can say well sometimes it is boiling hot sometimes a

day can be a scorcher of a day sometimes you can say oh well sometimes it's very hot

but sometimes it is very mild although it is mild it is still very humid so

if you walk outside a lot you will sweat another one

we can say is what is the weather like in your country.

It is warm but sometimes there can be an occasional heat wave

and then it will be boiling hot

and sometimes you can say well it rains a lot but there are always sunny spells.

Right now moving on we will go to cold weather

and vocabulary that can express our feeling and go deeper into detail about how cold it really is.

You can say, oh it's cold in my country, but there are different levels of cold.

Let's take a look.

First we have the word chilly.

Chilly means a little bit cold.

Not very cold.

Maybe we can say, oh it is chilly in the winter in my country but usually it's hot.

So, chilly just means a little bit just like just a little bit chilly.

Moving on.

100

Freezing.

101

Now, you all know the word freeze.

102

Freeze means it will turn into ice.

103

So, that means of course that it is very very super cold.

104

So let's just write here super cold.

105

So we can say oh in Europe it can be freezing cold in the winter.

106

Oh it is so freezing cold I thought I was going to die.

107

So just remember freezing means it is very very super extremely cold.

108

Just remember that.

109

Moving over we have frosty.

110

Now once again take a look.

111

FR FR.

112

It still means the same thing.

113

Freeze and frost.

114

So frost is usually when water turns to ice

115

and the word frosty is a lot more British it is a lot more of a British word

116

so British people will say oh it has been a frosty morning.

117

It was a little bit chilly but it was not frosty.

118

Alright, so frosty also means very cold, extremely cold.

119

When you wake up in the morning and you look outside there is frost on the grass.

120

So freezing and frosty is super cold.

121

Moving on, let's go to number four.

122

See your, let me fix that up, see your or see my breath.

123

Now, I'm sure you can understand what that means.

124

If it is very cold and you breathe and steam comes out.

125

So of course, see my breath is steam.

126

Steam, of course, comes from hot water.

127

So, see your breath means it is so cold that when your breath, which is hot, comes out in a very cold area,

128

you can see your breath coming out.

129

So usually, see my breath will be used in a very cold place.

130

You can say, this morning it has been so cold that I could see my breath even in my room.

131

My room was so chilly.

132

Going over to number five, we can look at the word bundle up.

133

Now bundle up once again is a very British word and bundle up means look at my body,

134

it is to bring your body together to make it more warm.

135

So we can say bundle up is wrap body

136

and you can use your arms or you can use a blanket

137

or you can use clothes but it just means to wrap your body to be more hot because it is so cold.

138

A good example of a sentence that we can use for that is, oh it was freezing in my room today

139

so I bundled up all of my blankets

140

and I bundled up all my clothes together so that I would not be so cold.

141

Alright, in conclusion when using the cold weather vocabulary we can say, what is the weather like in your country?

142

Or another good sentence would be, what is the weather like in your country during the winter?

143

Then you can say, oh in my country the winter can be a little bit chilly

144

but it is not freezing cold it is not frosty in the morning but sometimes

145

when it is really cold I can see my breath right

146

now we will be describing snowy weather a lot of useful phrases

147

and vocabulary that you can use to fully express how the weather is.

148

We'll start with the word blizzard.

149

Now what a blizzard is, a blizzard is a big snowstorm.

150

So we'll just write here snow storm.

151

So almost think of a big rainy storm

152

but instead of rain it is snow

153

so you can use the expression for example oh there was a big blizzard

154

and now the airports are all closed next we have the

155

word flurry flurry means a lot of snow very quickly

156

so flurry let's just say a lot very quickly

157

so we can say yesterday there was a flurry of snow

158

and now the roads are closed because of all the snow speaking about snow let's look at the word hail.

159

Now hail is not snow.

160

Hail is frozen water.

161

So sometimes in some places it will rain but the weather is

162

so cold that the water will freeze and the hail can sometimes be very hard and hit your head.

163

Sometimes the hail can be very big or it can be very small.

164

So we could use the sentence,

165

there was a big hailstorm today and a big hail drop hit my car and now I am upset.

166

Moving on, we have the word sleet.

167

Now what sleet is, sleet is partially partial,

168

partial means a little bit partially melted snow

169

so sleet is almost like wet snow so sometimes

170

when the weather gets a little warmer the snow will melt a little bit

171

and we will say it is sleet

172

so we can use the sentence oh there is a lot of sleet on the road.

173

So be careful before it freezes or it can be very slippery.

174

Moving on we have the word frost.

175

Frost means it is frozen water.

176

And usually frost will occur on a window or on the grass.

177

So I'll write here window frost, F for frost, or grass frost.

178

So we can use the sentence, it was so chilly this morning that there was frost all over my window.

179

Right, moving on we have the word slush.

180

Now slush is a a very interesting word because sometimes you can at movie theaters in America drink a slushy drink.

181

A slushy drink means it is wet or water with a lot of ice inside.

182

So it is more melted than sleet.

183

So slush is like water with some ice inside.

184

So usually people will use that word for the drink.

185

Oh, the ice has melted and now it is just a lot of slush.

186

Or, I like to drink slush drinks when I go to the movie theater.

187

Moving on is the word icicle.

188

Right, now icicle, I'll I'll draw a picture for you so you can understand.

189

An icicle is a piece of ice that looks like this.

190

Sometimes an icicle can be very dangerous, but icicles are usually water drops that drop,

191

drop, drop, and over time has started to freeze like this.

192

So you could say, Oh, it was snowing so much last night, but today it's a little warmer,

193

So, on my roof there are a lot of icicles.

194

Alright.

195

So, when the examinator asks you, what is the weather like in your country, you can use sentences like,

196

oh, sometimes in my country we can have big snow blizzards and a flurry of snow can come.

197

We can also use the sentence like, sometimes in my country it can hail a lot.

198

sometimes in my country there is frost on the windows, sleet on the roads and slush on the sidewalks.

199

And we can also say in my country it can get so cold that sometimes bicycles hang from the roofs.

200

Now we will be looking at vocabulary that can describe cloudy and windy weather.

201

Now let's first start with the word overcast.

202

Overcast means that the sky is very dark.

203

So let's use the word dark and no light and usually that will come from the clouds.

204

So you can use the sentence when someone asks you what is the weather like in your country?

205

Oh sometimes it can be very overcast and you can't see the sky.

206

Moving on we have word clear weather.

207

Clear weather means there are no clouds.

208

Let's write here no clouds and that the sky is very blue.

209

So clear usually means very good and also we can see clearly.

210

All right moving on we have the word gloomy.

211

Now gloomy is also a British word and gloomy usually means very dark.

212

That's right here dark and also very sad.

213

So that means when you use the word gloomy, sometimes the weather in England can be so gloomy.

214

That means that there is no sun and it is very depressing.

215

All right, moving on we have the word breeze.

216

Breeze is used to describe the wind and a breeze usually is not a strong wind,

217

it is a light wind.

218

So usually a breeze is very nice or we can say it is very pleasant.

219

You can use the sentence,

220

it was very hot today but there was a nice little breeze and that made it so much better.

221

Moving on we have a gale.

222

Now a gale is a very very big wind,

223

very big wind your hair is flying everywhere so we can say super strong wind

224

oh today there was a huge gale my clothes my umbrella my things were flying everywhere

225

and of course we have windy windy means well let's just say between a breeze and a gale,

226

windy is medium or in the middle.

227

So let's just say medium wind.

228

Alright, so ways we can use cloudy and windy weather.

229

Let's use the sentence for example, what is your favorite kind of weather?

230

You could say, well I like a little breeze

231

when it is hot but I don't like windy weather and I hate big gales.

232

You can also say oh in my country it's very hot

233

but sometimes it is overcast and I like that

234

but I do not like gloomy weather because it is very sad and very depressing.

235

Now we will be talking about rainy weather.

236

When someone asks you a question like, do you like rainy weather?

237

Or does it rain a lot in your country?

238

We can use these words to express how we really feel.

239

Let's look at the first word gentle or light rain.

240

So as the word suggests it is very little.

241

Let us write here little gentle light rain you can say I like a bit of light rain

242

or the rain was very gentle today

243

so it did not bother me moving on we have the word drizzle

244

or spit these words will describe let's say more medium amounts of rainfall.

245

So we can here write medium rain.

246

And you can use it in a sentence.

247

For example, today there was a little drizzle.

248

So drizzle, remember, is a noun.

249

Or you can use it as a verb and say it drizzled a little bit today.

250

So drizzle, remember is medium.

251

Moving on we have the word thunder

252

and thunder means there is a lot of big noise you know it is dark clouds and also boom.

253

Let's just write here a boom sound.

254

Just remember thunder is the sound and when you see this it is lightning.

255

So you can say I don't like thunder.

256

It can scare me so much, but I like a little drizzle.

257

Moving on we have the word downpour.

258

So just think of the word pour.

259

Pour is like water.

260

You pour down.

261

So a downpour or we can say it is pouring down today means a lot of rainfall.

262

So we can just say a lot of rain fall.

263

So you can say today there was a big downpour and I am so soaked.

264

Soaked means something is very wet.

265

So we can just write here very wet and we can say my hair is soaked or my clothes are soaked.

266

So I'll just write here a hair and also clothes.

267

So if someone asked you do you like rainy weather you can say I like gentle light rain.

268

I don't like thunder and downpours of rain because I will get so soaked.

269

But a little drizzle is not so bad for me.

270

And that is the end of today's lesson.

271

So if your examiner during the test asks you questions like what kind of weather do you like,

272

then you can use these sentences and these phrases to really express how you feel.

273

And if you want to learn more or practice more you can go to bestmytest.com for a lot more videos.

And if you like it maybe leave a comment.

275

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.
