10
It really is, because today we are talking about food.
11
Food, my favorite subject in the whole world.
12
Tama has been waiting for this episode for weeks.
13
Weeks.
14
I have been thinking about what to say.
15
I have a list.

28
so before we jump into today's lesson I want to ask
29
you something Tom is going to tell us a story later
30
in this episode about a very embarrassing food moment something that I do not know what you were talking about.
31
Oh, you know exactly what I'm talking about.
32
The soup incident.
33
We said we were never going to talk about that.
34
And yet here we are.
35
So here is a question for today.
36
What do you think Tom did at the restaurant?
37
Did he drop his soup on himself?
38
Did he order the wrong dish by accident?
39
Or did something even more embarrassing happen?
40
I'm not going to give you any hints.
41
comments, we love reading every single one.
42
All right, Tom, let's start simple.
43
What is your absolute favorite food?
44
Oh, without any question, it is pasta, specifically spaghetti bolognese.
45
Oh, that is a classic.
46
My grandmother used to make it every Sunday.
47
The whole house smelled amazing.
48
I would wake up and just know today is a pasta day.
49
"Aww, that is the sweetest thing !" She had a secret recipe.
50
She never wrote it down.
51
She just knew it in her hands.
52
Wow, do you know how to make it?
53
I tried, once.
54
It was not the same.
55
What happened?
56
I put too much salt.
57
Way too much salt.
58
My roommate took one bite and just looked at me with these eyes.
59
Oh no!
60
He didn't say anything.
61
He just put his fork down very slowly. That is so sad.
62
It's so funny at the same time.
63
Cooking is not my talent.
64
Eating is my talent.
65
Okay, what about you, Lily?
66
What is your favorite food?
67
Okay, so mine is a little different.
68
I love sushi.
69
Really?
70
When did you start eating sushi?
71
So the first time I tried sushi, I was 19 years old.
72
My friend took me to a Japanese restaurant, and I was honestly a little scared.
73
Scared of sushi?
74
I had never eaten raw fish before.
75
I did not know what to expect.
76
I thought I would hate it. And...
77
I ate twelve pieces in one sitting.
78
Twelve?
79
Yes!
80
I could not stop.
81
The salmon was just so fresh and soft and I kept saying, "Just one more, just one more." Classic.
82
My friend was watching me like I created a monster.
83
Yes, a sushi monster!
84
Okay, let's talk a little bit about grammar today because we are using some really useful structures in this conversation.
85
Yes, and this is something beginners really need so pay attention.
86
Today, we are looking at how to talk about likes and preferences in English.
87
Super simple, super useful.
88
You will use this every single day.
89
Structure number one: I love or I like or I really enjoy.
90
For example, "I love sushi.
91
I like pasta." I really enjoy cooking on weekends.
92
Notice we use the verb in the base form after I love and I like.
93
So we say I love sushi, not I love to sushi.
94
Sushi is a noun here.
95
Right.
96
Sushi is a thing, not an action, so we just say, "I love sushi." But if you use a verb,
97
you can say, "I love eating sushi." See, eating.
98
We add -ing to the verb.
99
Let's practice.
100
Repeat after us.
101
Ready?
102
I love pizza.
103
I love pizza.
104
I really like chocolate!
105
I really like chocolate.
106
I enjoy cooking dinner.
107
I enjoy cooking dinner.
108
Amazing!
109
You are doing great!
110
Now structure number two: My favorite food is.
111
This is how you name your number one food.
112
My favorite food is sushi.
113
My favorite food is pasta.
114
My favorite food is tacos.
115
simple right subject my favorite food verb is and then the food Try it right now.
116
Pause the video, say out loud, "My favorite food is ______ _." Put your food in the blank.
117
Did you say it?
118
Good!
119
Now you are speaking English.
120
Okay, now let's learn some real vocabulary for talking about food.
121
We have six great words and phrases today.
122
And for every word we have a story, because stories help you remember.
123
Trust us.
124
We have learned that the hard way.
125
Word number one: delicious.
126
D -E -L -I -C -I -O -U -S.
127
Delicious.
128
It's a stronger word than good or nice.
129
For example, this cake is delicious.
130
That soup smells delicious.
131
The pizza was absolutely delicious.
132
Tom, tell them about the delicious thing you ate last week.
133
Oh, okay.
134
So I went to this new Italian place near my apartment, and I ordered a tiramisu for dessert. And?
135
It was the most delicious thing I have eaten in years.
136
I am not exaggerating.
137
I closed my eyes.
138
He made a sound?
139
I like a very happy sound.
140
The waiter was watching me.
141
That is so embarrassing.

It means you love sweet foods.

I have the biggest sweet tooth.
180
If there's dessert, I will eat it.
181
Every time.
182
Okay, I have a story.
183
So one time I bought a box of chocolates for my mom.
184
A gift.
185
Very nice.
186
I put it in my bag and then on the bus ride home I thought, "I will just have one." No!
187
I had all of them.
188
Lily!
189
I arrived home with an empty box and a guilty face.
190
What did you tell your mom?
191
I said the shop was sold out and I came home to check on her.
192
You are a terrible person and I love it.

Fresh food tastes alive and clean.
224

The reason I love sushi so much is because the fish is so fresh.

Uitspraak om op te letten

De spreker gebruikt 4 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals I'm, didn't. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.

  • De “th”-klanken: tooth /tuθ/, grandmother /ˈɡɹæn(d)ˌmʌðɚ/, underneath /ˌʌndɚˈniθ/
  • De klanken “sh” en “zh”: sushi /ˈsuːʃi/, delicious /dɪˈlɪ.ʃəs/, dish /dɪʃ/, subscription /səbˈskɹɪpʃən/
  • Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, unbelievable /ˌʌnbɪˈliːvəbl̩/, exaggerate /ɛɡˈzæd͡ʒ.ə.ɹeɪt/, tiramisu /ˌtɪɹəˈmisu/

Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:

  • Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: verb /vɝb/, egg /ɛɡ/, twelve /twɛlv/, subscribe /səbˈskɹaɪb/, arrive /əˈɹaɪv/
  • /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, candy /ˈkæn.di/, blank /ˈblæŋk/, grandmother /ˈɡɹæn(d)ˌmʌðɚ/
  • /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/, egg /ɛɡ/, hungry /ˈhʌŋ.ɡɹi/, vinegar /ˈvɪnəɡɚ/, beginner /bəˈɡɪnɚ/

Zo oefen je met deze video

  1. Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
  2. Spreek zin voor zin na op normale snelheid en herhaal elke zin tot je ritme gelijk is aan dat van de spreker.
  3. Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als sushi, delicious, spicy.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
