It is my gift to you.

So are you ready to join me at the grocery store back when my son was so small and so adorable.

Let's go.

All right.

First things first, we are going to go through the parking lot and get a cart.

I call this just a cart, but some people call it a shopping cart.

And here in the south where I live, people call it a buggy, a buggy.

Our first stop is the free fruit snack for kids.

This is Freddie's favorite thing to do in the grocery store so I sure hope they have something for him.

Look at this, Freddie.

You want a banana?

Yeah?

Okay, can you open it?

Maybe you need some help?

Wow!

Hold it down there.

Yummy!

All right, let's go get some stuff from the produce section.

Notice that I said the word produce section.

This just means where you can buy fruits and vegetables, but let's pay attention to the pronunciation of that word produce.

The emphasis is at the beginning, produce, produce.

There's another word, which is a verb, to produce something.

I produce one YouTube video every week.

Here the emphasis is at the end, produce.

I produce a video.

This is different than the produce section.

We're in the produce section right now and let's see what's going to happen next. Who knows?

It could be anything.

Hmm.

Should I get the single ones or should I get the bag?

Get a bag, we can make some sparkling water.

Well, let's see.

There's 94 cents for this and there's one, two, three, four, five, six in here for $5.

It's a better deal, but they're in a bag.

Look at this.

What do you think?

Should we get lemons?

Yeah, let's get some lemons.

When you're buying produce, you have two options.

You can buy loose produce like the broccoli that I bought, or you can buy bagged produce like the lemons that I bought,

or here like the potatoes.

And really there are so many to choose from.

It's pretty unbelievable the type of options that we have these days.

I feel so lucky to have these options.

As we go through the bulk section where you can buy items in bulk, you'll see these bananas in a bag that are on sale.

I want you to know the difference between on sale and for sale.

These bananas are on sale.

That means there's a discount.

It's on sale.

But really every item in the grocery store is for sale.

For sale means that you can buy it.

There's no special discount.

There's no special price.

It's just for sale.

Here we are at the deli counter.

At the deli counter, you can order freshly sliced lunch meat.

You might say, I'd like half a pound of turkey, please.

Or I'd like a pound of cheddar cheese, please.

We decided to not order anything today

because there was only one person working early in the morning and the wait was too long, but that's all right.

Let's move on to the next thing.

In the bakery, you can get some freshly baked donuts, bread, or cakes.

Because Freddy is turning too soon at the end of March, we've been talking about cakes a lot recently.

He's very excited about getting a birthday cake or cupcakes.

Let's see.

What cake would you like for your birthday?

This one?

Yeah.

This one or this one?

This one.

This one?

Yeah.

This one?

Oh, the one with the cereal all over it?

That looks exciting.

Mmm.

You know what would be really good?

You'd get some hummus.

You want some hummus?

That's bell pepper hummus, so it's yummy.

Yum, it's pretty.

Thank you.

In the grocery store, you have the option to get fresh fish or frozen fish,

100

but watch Watch out because usually the fresh fish has been previously frozen.

101

You can also get fresh cuts of meat or you can get pre-packaged meat.

102

If you want to get a fresh cut of meat, you could say, I'd like two pounds of ground beef, please.

103

This is a really polite and common statement that you can use.

104

Now I'm going down an aisle.

105

Notice this pronunciation, aisle.

106

The S is silent.

107

down an aisle

108

or you can say it's on

109

aisle three great pronunciation

110

all right we

111

gotta get some pretzels I want to get this kind you want hold it Okay.

112

And I'm going to get this one.

113

That's our special snack.

114

That's our special snack.

115

We don't get many treats like chips and stuff, but pretzels.

116

I love pretzels.

117

Yep.

118

I'm walking past a case of frozen meat and on the other side is an end cap.

119

An end cap is a shelf on the end of an aisle.

120

The chips are on the end cap.

121

We're going to get some poster board for Theo.

122

Me!

123

And for Freddy.

124

Okay, you need some poster board too?

125

Ha ha!

126

Is it down here?

127

Oh, let's go down here.

128

Poster board.

129

We need some poster board.

130

Oh, look at this!

131

Yes.

132

Next I'm going to be walking to the dairy section.

133

The dairy section includes milk products like milk, yogurt, cheese, and also for some reason eggs are included in this.

134

The dairy section is refrigerated.

135

There are refrigerated items in this section.

136

Let's take a look at this pronunciation.

137

Refrigerated.

138

That final T is going to sound like a D in American English because it's surrounded by vowels.

139

This is very common for American English.

140

I'm going to say the word again and I want you to try to say it with me.

141

Refrigerated.

142

Refrigerated.

143

I'm in the refrigerated section, getting some refrigerated items.

144

I hope that this helps.

145

I know this word is tricky, but you can do it.

146

All right, let's go get yogurt.

147

Where's the yogurt? That way.

148

That's right.

149

It's that way.

150

Do you think we need to buy any eggs?

151

Yeah.

152

We actually don't need to buy.

153

We don't need to buy any eggs because our chickens make so many eggs.

154

We are looking for plain whole milk yogurt.

155

Vanilla, vanilla, vanilla.

156

I don't want vanilla yogurt.

157

Plain whole milk yogurt, but this is so expensive.

158

Do we need yogurt that bad, Freddie?

159

Okay.

160

We need yogurt that bad.

161

Okay.

162

Now it's time for a little splurge.

163

A splurge is something you don't need.

164

Maybe it's a little too expensive, but you really want it.

165

I'm going to get some sparkling water with a little bit of fruit juice in it.

166

It's It's so tasty.

167

Let's talk a little bit about alcohol.

168

In the state where I live, North Carolina, you can buy wine and beer in the grocery store.

169

This is a very simple thing to do, but if you want to buy hard liquor, so this is considered like rum or vodka,

170

you need to go to a special store called a liquor store.

171

Here in the South where I live, we call these an ABC store, but you need to go to this specialized store if you want to buy something else,

172

not just wine and beer.

173

But for now, I'm not going to get any of it.

174

I need to get some more gardening gloves, believe it or not.

175

Oh, you're actually eating some?

176

Yeah, mine have holes in all the fingers.

177

The point of gardening gloves is to keep your hands safe, but if they have holes in all the fingers.

178

And this will save me a trip to Lowe's.

179

Before we check out, there's one key word that I haven't talked about yet, and we need to talk about it.

180

Can you guess what it is?

181

It's the word grocery.

182

Grocery store.

183

That's where I'm at, and I'm buying groceries.

184

There's two different pronunciations for this, and it's just a regional difference or a personal preference.

185

You can say I say, grocery with an S sound in the middle, grocery, grocery.

186

But for me, I say grocery with a sh sound in the middle,

187

grocery store, grocery store.

188

Both of these options are correct and it just depends on what you feel the most comfortable saying.

189

You could say, I'm at the grocery store, or I'm at the grocery store.

190

I'm buying groceries, or I'm buying groceries.

191

Both of these are beautiful, very natural, and it's the most common expression

192

that you're going to hear in the US when we talk about a store where you buy food.

193

It's the grocery store.

194

Now it's time to check out.

195

We can use this word as a noun or a verb.

196

Let's check out, or let's go to the checkout.

197

You can also say the checkout counter.

198

Let's go to the checkout counter.

199

I need to buy the things that I put in my cart.

200

Let's check out.

201

It's time to check out.

202

At the checkout counter, watch out because there are a lot of snacks and junk food waiting for you.

203

The grocery store wants you to splurge and buy these things.

204

For me, I try to avoid them.

205

It's always unhealthy, not really a good choice, but this is here to make a last minute purchase.

206

I want to know, in your country, are there a lot of snacks and junk food options waiting at the checkout?

207

I think this is kind of common around the world, but let me know in the comments if this happens in your country.

208

Now I'm asking the kind checkout lady if I have her permission to film while I'm checking out.

209

I wanted to give you this experience to see the final step at the grocery store.

210

Well, I forgot all of my bags today, so I can help to check out too.

211

Let's do paper.

212

Now all of the items are going down the conveyor belt

213

and the checkout lady is scanning them while I put them in my bag.

214

I usually bring my own bags, but this day I was so focused on filming, I totally forgot.

215

So I chose to get paper bags.

216

I can compost the paper bags in my garden,

217

but you might choose to get a plastic bag because you can reuse them as a trash bag in your house.

218

It's time to pay for all of these groceries.

219

I'm scanning my membership card so that I can get a few discounts.

220

And she asked me if I want to use cash or credit, or she might say cash or card, and you can choose which one.

221

Thank you.

222

Thank you.

223

Thank you too.

224

I appreciate your help.

225

Yes.

226

Bye.

227

Bye.

228

Bye.

229

Now I go out through the automatic doors like magic and load the groceries in the car.

230

I load the groceries in the car and then at home, I will unload the groceries.

231

Thank you for going to the grocery store with me.

232

Now it's time to hop over to the pharmacy and see how real American pharmacies work,

233

plus learn some essential vocabulary for daily life and see when my daughter was just a tiny little baby.

234

Let's go.

235

All right.

236

Are you ready to join me, Vanessa, and my baby, Matilda, inside the pharmacy?

237

Let's go.

238

So inside a pharmacy in the U.S., there are a lot of things that you can purchase.

239

You might think that a pharmacy is just for medicine, but that's not true.

240

There's a lot of different sections, so let's walk around.

241

Here we are in the cosmetics section.

242

Cosmetics means makeup.

243

And you can see down each aisle like this.

244

You can buy soap, shampoo, really anything you can imagine.

245

little toys and trinkets.

246

There are endless amounts of things you can get at a pharmacy.

247

In fact, this is something that the U.S is kind of known for, for having stores that are a one-stop shop.

248

That means you can stop one place and get everything you need.

249

Very convenient and kind of a stereotype.

250

This is where you would go if you were celebrating a birthday party and you wanted to buy some balloons,

251

candles, themed birthday plates for your kids, birthday cards, any cards for really any occasion.

252

In fact, this is something that pharmacies are known for is having lots of cards.

253

So if you are on the way somewhere and you realize I forgot to bring a card, well, you can just stop into a pharmacy.

254

Let's see.

255

So over here you can see this is the actual pharmacy part.

256

You can go to the clinic, you can actually see somebody who is a certified nurse or doctor, someone who can give you some advice about a medical issue.

257

Generally it's a good idea to make an appointment, but you can always drop in and ask if they have any way

258

that you can talk with someone if you have an issue.

259

Over here, you can see it says in big letters what we came for.

260

Pharmacy.

261

So at the pharmacy, this is where you would go if you were going to pick up a prescription.

262

And in the US, there's a couple different ways to get medicine.

263

Unfortunately, a lot of medications that are pretty typical, like an antibiotic, you have to have a prescription,

264

which means you need to see a doctor first.

265

You have to pay to see the doctor.

266

The doctor has to evaluate if you need that medicine and then they will send a prescription to your chosen pharmacy.

267

So when you go to a doctor in the US, they'll ask, what is your preferred pharmacy?

268

And you'll choose maybe a place like this and you'll say the address and the location.

269

And then you can come here and you can pick up your prescription whenever it's available.

270

I see my baby has noticed the microphone.

271

You want to grab that?

272

Not a good idea.

273

It is possible that you could ask the pharmacist or if they have a little clinic like this, you could ask them for some advice.

274

So if you have no appointment, if you just need some medical advice, maybe you're on a vacation and you have a cough that won't go away, you could ask, hey, do you have any recommendations?

275

What should I do?

276

You could ask them for advice.

277

Who knows what they'll say, but it's always worth it and it's no problem to ask.

278

take a look at some of the aisles to see what kind of medication you can get over the counter, and I'll explain what that means.

279

So for example, this is the children's section, but let's say you have allergies,

280

terrible allergies, and you visit the U.S during like a spring season, you will need to get some allergy medicine.

281

This is something that you can get over-the-counter.

282

These are children's allergy medications in the children's section, but you can get allergy medicine.

283

You can get pain and fever relieving medicine over-the-counter.

284

I've always been a little bit confused by this phrase because where's the counter?

285

There's no counter.

286

Instead, that's the counter where you actually have to have a prescription.

287

So don't be confused.

288

Over the counter means that you can just walk in and get it.

289

You don't need a prescription.

290

You don't need a doctor's approval.

291

You can just walk in and get anything over the counter, even though that's the counter.

292

Don't be confused.

293

Sometimes English is strange.

294

All right, let's keep walking and see what else you can get.

295

Need some Kleenex?

296

You can get Kleenex.

297

You can get wrapping paper if it's Christmas time like it is now.

298

You can get reading glasses if you forgot your reading glasses.

299

You can even get some kind of like minor medical supplies.

300

There are some hearing aids.

301

There are some braces for your arm.

302

There are alarm clocks.

303

Paternity testing kits.

304

I didn't even know you could get that here.

305

There's thermometers.

306

Pain medication.

307

Sometimes in the U.S we do use, you all right baby?

308

Sometimes we do use the brand name.

309

Oh, a little cough.

310

Maybe you need some medication.

311

We do use the brand name to talk about medications.

312

So if you ask a pharmacist, I have a cough, what should I do?

313

And they recommend a specific brand name to you and you're not familiar with it.

314

You can just ask, oh, is that a cough medication?

315

Or is that a fever reducing medication?

316

You're welcome to ask for clarification because sometimes I don't know what the medication is either.

317

So feel free to ask for clarification if you're not sure.

318

All right, let's keep going.

319

Lots and lots of medication, lots and lots.

320

All right, we're getting to the section of stuff.

321

Not medicine anymore.

322

Candy, candy, candy.

323

So if you need to buy any dry goods, maybe last minute Christmas presents.

324

You can get toilet paper, laundry detergent, all of these types of dry goods, and there's even lots of different types of foods.

325

So let's go take a look at the food.

326

There's candy and candy and candy and candy.

327

Lots of candy.

328

But there might be, you know, seasonal items as well.

329

Right now it is almost Christmas.

330

I know it's after Christmas when you're watching this, but imagine Christmas.

331

so lots of candy for stockings and different seasonal things.

332

There's many toys down here.

333

Let's actually go down the next aisle.

334

I want to show you something.

335

These types of things are like grab-and-go snacks, so you could get pistachios, chocolate-covered almonds.

336

I love that kind of stuff.

337

More trail makes dried fruit, chips, lots of soda, lots and lots of soda.

338

Beef jerky, lots of beef jerky apparently.

339

Different types of popcorn and juices.

340

And back here, it's a little bit loud.

341

There are coolers where you can get cooled drinks.

342

And guess what?

343

in some pharmacies in the U.S., you can buy alcohol.

344

Did you hear that right?

345

Alcohol.

346

You can get beer and wine in some pharmacies, and that's really normal.

347

Here, I guess in this pharmacy, I don't see any.

348

It might be state by state too.

349

Different states have different rules, but don't be surprised if you walk into a pharmacy and there's wine.

350

Grab a bottle of wine and go have a party.

351

Let's go down here for the last section.

352

This is the baby section.

353

So if you have a baby like I do, and you need to buy anything like specific baby medicine,

354

baby soaps, diapers, wipes, any of these types of things, you can get this here.

355

So it's pretty incredible.

356

Pharmacies are so inclusive many different things they are really a one-stop shop now I must say

357

that oftentimes pharmacies in the US are gonna be more expensive than going to somewhere like Walmart

358

or purchasing something online if you have that option

359

but you know what sometimes when you're visiting

360

or you're traveling it's nice to just go to one of these places that's an easy access

361

and one-stop shop and you can just get whatever you need to get.

362

All right, I'm going to grab a pack of baby wipes.

363

You always need baby wipes when you have a baby

364

and we're going to go to the checkout and I'll show you how the checkout works.

365

If I remember right, this pharmacy has a couple checkout options.

366

So let's go see.

367

Oh, you can even get stuff for your car.

368

Pretty amazing.

369

If you need some washer fluid or something for your car or to wash your clothes.

370

It's here.

371

Welcome.

372

If you have your extra care.

373

So I'm going to use the self-checkout because that's the easiest option and there's nobody here right now.

374

And I think those are pretty much, pretty much the same all around the world.

375

Place your item in the bagging area.

376

I did!

377

One little note as I do this, there is a photo studio so if you want to have any pictures printed

378

and you don't have access to doing that online, this is a great place to do that so you can get your pictures printed here.

379

All right, I'm going to not scan any coupons And I'm going to continue.

380

No. And I will use my card.

381

Alright, now I know in some countries you have to just put your card in really quickly.

382

Sometimes in the US it's quick.

383

Sometimes you have to leave it in there.

384

So please read the pin pad little screen and make sure you're doing it the right way.

385

Alright, I don't want a receipt, so I'll click no receipt. And that's it.

386

I'm not going to use a bag.

387

I'll just carry it out myself.

388

Let's go.

389

You're welcome.

390

I just want to let you know there also is an ATM at a lot of CVS's.

391

You can use the ATM or what you can do

392

if you go to the checkout counter where there's an actual person there.

393

I think you can do this at the self-checkout too.

394

You can choose cash back and you can get cash back.

395

So if you need $20 in cash.

396

You're welcome to go to the counter and buy something small, buy a little candy bar or some gum,

397

and then ask for some cash back.

398

And you can get cash back or you can use the ATM.

399

That's what we call it in the US.

400

In fact, it's right here.

401

A-T-M.

402

You can use that as well to get money back.

403

All right, let's leave.

404

Come on.

405

All right, I want to show you something else down here.

406

This is kind of a blast from the past.

407

I don't know if in your country people use DVDs still or if they're more likely to use Netflix.

408

In the U.S.

409

DVDs are not very common,

410

but this is a machine where you can rent DVDs and they will come out of here.

411

I guess this little slot.

412

They'll come out and you can actually take the physical DVD home.

413

It's called a Redbox.

414

It's kind of a blast from the past.

415

I don't know how many people actually use these, but you know what?

416

If you need a DVD, go for it.

417

Enjoy the red box at the pharmacy.

418

Thank you for coming to the pharmacy with me.

419

Now it's time to do our final errand and go to the gas station.

420

We need to fill up the car with gas so that we can get where we need to go.

421

Let's go.

422

Hey, I just realized my light's on and I need to fill up.

423

Want to come with me?

424

There's a couple expressions I want to share with you.

425

The first one is my gas gauge.

426

So on my dashboard, there is a gauge that shows me E to F, and that means empty to full.

427

Right now, the gas gauge is closer to E, so that's why we're heading to the gas station.

428

And usually, if you have a somewhat modern car, if your car is low on gas,

429

you will see a fuel light or a gas light appear on your dashboard.

430

And that's a little warning to let you know, get some gas soon so that you don't run out.

431

There's two idioms we can use to talk about my situation right now.

432

We could say I'm running on empty or I'm on E, and that's referring to empty.

433

Now we use this to talk about the car.

434

I'm running on empty.

435

That means I have hardly any gas in my car.

436

It's just fumes coming out.

437

I better get to a gas station soon.

438

But we can also use this for your personal life.

439

Let's say that you've been working really hard, you've been staying up late, you've also been taking care of your family, you're exhausted, you have no energy left.

440

You can say, guys, I'm running on empty, I'm on E, I just need to take a nap.

441

Can you guys just chill for a moment so

442

that I can go to the other room and take a 15 minute nap?

443

I'm running on empty.

444

So this is great for talking about your car or for yourself.

445

All right, let's head to the gas station where I will introduce you to some more great daily life English expressions.

446

All right, here we are at the gas station.

447

In the US, we call this a gas station

448

and there's usually a little convenience store where you can buy little snacks and things like that.

449

Now, I wanna let you know that there's different terms we use for gas

450

that you will hear all around the world and in the US.

451

You've heard me say a few times, gas.

452

Well, this is not talking about steam.

453

This is short for gasoline.

454

So we put gasoline in the car and in the US we shorten that to gas.

455

But you could also say fuel.

456

I need to put some fuel in my car.

457

And there's a specific type of fuel called diesel fuel

458

that in the US is not common for ordinary cars like what I have, but big trucks, construction vehicles,

459

18 wheelers, these type of big tractor trailers, they use diesel fuel.

460

And I want to let you know that in the US, we do not use the word petrol to talk about what you put in your car for fuel,

461

but this is more common in Europe and in the UK.

462

So if you hear someone in another English speaking country say, I need to put some petrol in my car, they're talking about the fuel,

463

the liquid that goes in the car, but here we call it simply gas.

464

Now that I've pulled up to the pump, I need to open the fuel door.

465

Usually there's a little button or a latch down here to open the fuel door

466

and I'm going to start choosing which grade of fuel I want.

467

So come on to the other side of the car and let's start.

468

Here in the US, we have self-service gas stations.

469

That means you have to pump the gas yourself.

470

But a long time ago, they used to have full service gas stations where there was someone who worked here who would pump the gas for you, but I have to do it myself.

471

And that includes paying for the gas.

472

You have a couple options.

473

For me, I'm going to pay at the pump, but if you have cash, you need to pay inside.

474

For me, I've never done this, I think, because it's so much more convenient to pay with a card at the pump.

475

So let's see how that works.

476

I'm going to choose to pay with my card, so I will choose the option for debit.

477

You could also choose credit if you want.

478

I need to insert and remove my card, and then I will have to choose which grade I want.

479

But we're going to let it process for a moment.

480

I'm going to add my PIN, which will keep my card information safe.

481

It's authorizing.

482

Do I want a receipt?

483

Nope, I don't need a receipt.

484

And now, I'm going to need to choose which grade I want.

485

All right, so I already put in my payment information.

486

Now I need to take out the pump and choose which grade.

487

I'm going to choose 87.

488

That's the lowest.

489

It's the cheapest also, but it's also what my car needs.

490

And I need to put it in the gas pump.

491

So I'm going to take off the gas cap and insert the gas pump into the gas tank.

492

Turn it on.

493

And you can see here that it is starting to add gas to my car

494

and the price is going up and up and up.

495

Here in the US, we generally have cheaper fuel than other countries, especially Europe.

496

But, you know, it still adds up after some time.

497

All right.

498

Now that the gas is pumping, let me tell you some basic vocabulary here.

499

This is the gas pump.

500

It's the piece that I put into my gas tank.

501

And the tank is the term that we use for that container that holds the gas in your car.

502

And after I finish pumping gas, that's the verb we use to pump gas,

503

I will need to close the gas cap so that everything is sealed in the car and it's not a flammable hazard.

504

All right, my gas just finished.

505

So I'm going to put the nozzle back, very important step.

506

And I will also close my gas cap, make sure it's locked, close the gas door, and that's about it.

507

There's some other things that you can do at the gas station if you would like.

508

For example, you could use a squeegee and clean off your windshield.

509

You could throw away some trash.

510

A lot of gas stations also have an air pump.

511

Sometimes they're free, sometimes they're a dollar, but you can add some air to your tires if you need to, or you could go into the convenience store and pick up some snacks if you feel like it.

512

So are you curious how much it cost me to fill up my car with gas?

513

Well, here in the US, we use gallons that might not be the same for you,

514

but I put about 15 gallons of gas in my car and it cost me $46.

515

For me, I don't drive an awful lot, so this will last several weeks, but it's still an expense that you have to pay if you want to get around in the US.

516

Great work joining me at the gas station and learning the real life English that you need to know.

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.
