Settle in with our summer special collection, Gather and Celebrate.
2
In this episode, we are firing up a classic Aussie BBQ.
3
Learn key phrases like flip your food and words like chook, esky and snag.
4
Basically, everything you need to chat confidently around the grill.
5
Learning English helped me to enjoy a barbecue with friends.
6
SBS acknowledges the traditional custodians of country and their connections and continuous care for the skies,
7
lands and waterways throughout Australia.
8
Mmm, when I bite into a perfectly barbecued prawn, the taste, well, it brings a smile to my face.
9
Whether it's on a beach, in a park, or in someone's backyard, a barbecue with its friendly,
10
relaxed atmosphere has become one of my favorite ways to spend time with my friends.
11
My name is Josipa and since moving to the land down under, I've been to countless Barbies.
12
A Barbie is a short Australian word for barbecue, just like Arvo is a short way of saying afternoon.
13
These two words form the phrase I love to use.
14
Let's have a Barbie this Arvo.
15
There's no denying it.
16
Aussies know how to do Barbies right.
17
It's basically the taste of Australian culture.
18
That's what my friends Alan and Claire say and let me tell you, they throw some of the best Barbies ever.
19
Yes, you can throw a Barbie just like you can throw a party.
20
Funny language English, isn't it?
21
Well, today I'm carefully bringing over a pav that's a short for Pavlova,
22
one of my favorite desserts, to Alan's backyard.
23
Children are racing around and Alan and Claire are cooking over the fire.
24
Yes.
25
The smoke, the smoke is adding a great inviting smell to the party atmosphere.
26
Come on, what are you waiting for?
27
Let's get a little bit closer.
28
We need to give everything a little longer, don't we?
29
Yeah, nah, the chooks look done, I reckon.
30
You can take it off.
31
Pass me the tongs, will ya?
32
I need to flip these steaks.
33
Here you go.
34
Oh, I'll grab the prawns from the esky.
35
Do you want the onions on now too?
36
Yeah, chuck them on.
37
Coming right up.
38
Oh, let's throw some extra snags on.
39
I'll bet you the kids will ask for a second round.
40
You're probably right.
41
There's Josipa with the pat.
42
This is going to be a ripper Barbie.
43
I'm so hungry after listening to this dialogue.
44
But before I can eat the leftovers from this amazing Barbie, we have some work to do.
45
By the way, leftovers are the food that is left after a meal.
46
For example, if you have extra food after your dinner, you can have leftovers the next day for lunch.
47
I do that all the time.
48
Now let's get to work.
49
Claire thinks that everything on the Barbie still needs a little more cooking but Alan disagrees.
50
He said, Yeah, nah, the chooks look done, I reckon.
51
I reckon is an informal way of saying I think.
52
And Alan doesn't think that the chook needs more cooking, so he disagrees with Claire.
53
In Australian English, we can use the phrase, Yeah, nah, to start off, when you don't agree with someone,
54
but you want to be friendly and informal.
55
For example, if Alan asks Claire to turn off the barbecue, but she doesn't think they have finished cooking, she can say...
56
Yeah, nah, I don't think that's a good idea.
57
And do you know what a chook is?
58
In Aussie slang, chook means chicken.
59
Alan said the chook, the chicken, looks done.
60
When food looks done, it looks as if it is cooked.
61
Pass me the tongs.
62
I need to flip these steaks.
63
Alan is asking for the tongs, a tool used for picking up and turning food.
64
And if you need to flip your food, it means you have to turn it over while it's cooking.
65
Claire passed him the tongs and said...
66
I'll grab the prawns from the Esky.
67
Do you want the onions on now too?
68
Claire is going to get the prawns from the Esky.
69
This is an Australian word for a cooler or icebox that keeps food and drinks cold.
70
She asked Alan if he wants the onions too.
71
Do you remember his reply?
72
He said Yeah, chuck them on.
73
Chuck them on is an informal way to say put them on.
74
It's a useful phrase when it comes to adding more food, but you can use it in other situations as well.
75
Let's say you're putting together a playlist for your family road trip and your son wants to add more songs.
76
You could say...
77
Yeah, chug-a-mon.
78
Let's continue.
79
Coming right up.
80
Let's throw some extra snags on.
81
I'll bet you the kids will ask for a second round.
82
Coming right up.
83
We can use this phrase when we are just starting to do something
84
that someone has asked us to do or is expecting us to do.
85
Claire also said, Let's throw some extra snags on.
86
I'll bet you the kids will ask for a second round.
87
To throw something extra on means to add it.
88
Claire wants to throw some extra snags on.
89
A snag is Australian slang for a sausage.
90
So Claire wants to throw some extra snags on Barbie because she thinks the kids will ask for a second round.
91
That is another helping or portion.
92
We can use this phrase to talk about having more food or drink.
93
And also when we are playing games with other people.
94
So we can talk about another round of cards, for example, if we would like to play again.
95
At Barbies, I always go for a second round of prawns.
96
At the end of our dialogue, Alan said, This is going to be a ripper, Barbie.
97
Ripper means great or fantastic in Australian slang.
98
So Alan is saying that he thinks this barbecue is going to be great.
99
And it really was.
100
Now, let's listen to the dialogue once again.
101
Actually, while you listen to Alan and Claire again, I'll enjoy the leftovers.
102
Yummy.
103
We need to give everything a little longer, don't we?
104
Yeah, nah, the chooks look done, I reckon.
105
You can take it off.
106
Pass me the tongs, will ya?
107
I need to flip these steaks.
108
Here you go.
109
Oh, I'll grab the prawns from the Esky.
110
Do you want the onions on now too?
111
Yeah, chuck them on.
112
Coming right up.
113
Oh, let's throw some extra snags on.
114
I'll bet you the kids will ask for a second round.
115
You're probably right.
116
There's Josipa with the pat.
117
This is going to be a ripper barbie.
118
My guest today is a very talented producer whom listeners of SBS Cantonese might recognise.
119
Gloria is also a big fan of Aussie barbecues, And apparently she's very good at it.
120
Isn't that right, Gloria?
121
Yes.
122
There was this one time when I was with my uni friends and I was the designated like sausage tongs chef.
123
So you were flipping sausages all day?
124
Yeah, that's what I did mainly and everyone was happy with it.
125
Yay!
126
Yay!
127
Well, the main reason I invited you today is because you have started working with Learn English.
128
But before we get into that, can you tell us a little bit about yourself?
129
Yeah, sure.
130
So, hello, my name is Gloria and I am usually with the SBS Cantonese team.
131
And so I'm from Hong Kong originally and I studied journalism and philosophy.

137
Can you tell us what it is about?
138
Yes.
139
So stay tuned, everyone.
140
The topic will be about being scammed.
141
Let's learn how to talk about being scammed.
142
Oh, that's super useful and interesting.
143
I can't wait to hear it.
144
But now can you help us practice the phrases from this episode?
145
Yeah, sure.
146
It's time to practice.
147
See if you remember the meaning before hearing the answer.
148
The phrase, let's have a barbie this arvo, means...
149
Let's have a barbie this arvo is a casual way of saying let's have a barbecue this afternoon.
150
What is an esky?
151
An esky is an Australian word for a cooler or icebox that keeps food and drinks cold.
152
Let's now practice our speaking skills by repeating after Alan and Claire.
153
The chook looks done.
154
Pass me the tongs.
155
I need to flip these stakes.
156
I'll grab the prawns from the Esky.

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.
