Hello, I am from Clear Voice English and today I am going to teach you how to order coffee in English.
2
Let's go inside Starbucks.
3
So the first thing we need to know is a little bit of Starbucks history.
4
Starbucks was founded in 1971 and the first store opened in Seattle.
5
Today, there are more than 33 ,000 Starbucks stores around the world.
6
That number is crazy, right?
7
And this shows us how popular coffee is around the world.
8
People love coffee.
9
And before we start talking about what you can order at Starbucks, let's talk about where does the coffee come from.
10
At Starbucks, they use something called coffee beans.
11
Now coffee beans are actually the seeds from the coffee plant.
12
And guess what?
13
The coffee plant is a tree.
14
Yes, a tree.
15
And coffee trees grow in warm climates.
16
They do not like the cold.
17
The main places where coffee is grown are in South America like Venezuela, Colombia, Guatemala, and many other places.
18
Also, coffee is grown in Africa, too, like Ethiopia.
19
Ethiopia is very famous for their coffee.
20
At Starbucks, when you buy the coffee beans, you can actually scan this little barcode here and it will tell you exactly where your coffee is from.
21
Okay, so once the coffee beans arrive at Starbucks, they are roasted.
22
Now when we talk about roasting coffee, we are heating the beans to make them darker and to bring out the flavors and the smells.
23
There are three different types of roasts.
24
You have light roast, medium roast, and dark roast.
25
The longer the beans are roasted, the darker they become and the stronger the coffee will be.
26
If you don't like strong coffee, order a light roast.
27
Okay, now that we know all about coffee beans, let's talk about what we can order at Starbucks.
28
Here at Starbucks, you can get coffee hot or cold.
29
So first, I will tell you the hot drinks and then I will tell you the cold drinks.
30
When it comes to hot coffee, you can order an Americano.
31
An Americano is a very popular drink at Starbucks.
32
It's a strong coffee.
33
Basically, it's espresso with hot water.
34
You can ask for a macchiato.
35
A macchiato is similar to an americano, but it has less coffee.
36
It has a little bit of milk in it.
37
You can also order a latte.
38
A latte is espresso with hot milk and foamed milk.
39
Okay, next we have a cappuccino.
40
A cappuccino is similar to a latte, but it has more foam.
41
So if you like a lot of foam in your coffee, order a cappuccino.
42
A cappuccino has equal parts of espresso, hot milk and milk foam.
43
Also, you can order a mocha.
44
A mocha is a chocolate drink.
45
It's a mix of espresso, chocolate syrup, steamed milk and milk foam.
46
Yummy.
47
And of course, all of these drinks that I mentioned, you can get them iced.
48
Just say to the barista, can I get that iced?
49
And if you like coffee with a lot of ice, you can also ask for extra ice.
50
Now we have another popular drink here at Starbucks.
51
It's called a Frappuccino.
52
A Frappuccino is a blended drink.
53
So it's iced coffee that is blended with milk and sugar.
54
It's very delicious.
55
And it comes in different flavors like caramel, mocha, cinnamon dolce, which means sweet cinnamon in Italian.
56
And there are many other flavors to choose from.
57
Now let's talk about caffeine.
58
Some people are sensitive to caffeine.
59
It's the ingredient in coffee that makes you feel awake.
60
If you don't want a lot of caffeine, you can order decaf coffee.
61
Decaf means low caffeine.
62
So it's basically coffee with less caffeine.
63
You can also order half and half coffee or half -caf, which means half of the coffee will be regular
64
and the other half will be decaf let me show you
65

74
Well, thank you Starbucks for teaching me how to order coffee in English.
75
At Starbucks, they have special names for their sizes.
76
Small is called tall.
77
Medium is called grande, which means large in Spanish.
78
And large is called venti, which means 20 in Italian.
79
So venti means big.
80
And if you want a lot of coffee, you should order a venti.
81
This has been my coffee lesson.
82
I hope you enjoyed it.
83
And if you have time, grab a coffee and enjoy it.
84
Take a moment and relax.
85
I know that coffee can be expensive.
86
My total was $6 .23.
87
It's a little bit pricey, right?
88
But you know, sometimes we have to spend a little bit more to get a little bit more.
89
So don't be afraid to treat yourself.
90
And remember, everyone starts somewhere.
91
Don't be afraid to make mistakes.
92
And if you do make a mistake, laugh at yourself and keep trying.

Waarom oefenen met deze video voor je Engels spreekvaardigheid?
Deze video biedt een prachtige context om je Engels spreekvaardigheid te oefenen: bestellen in een Starbucks. Het is een alledaagse situatie die je vaak tegenkomt, waardoor je geleerde vaardigheden direct toepasbaar zijn. Daarnaast helpt het om cultuur en terminologie te leren, zoals koffiesoorten en roastingmethoden. Door te oefenen met deze dialoog, verbetert niet alleen je taal, maar ook je zelfvertrouwen in echte communicatie. Ideaal voor schaduwspreken: herhaal de zinnen na de spreker om intonatie en tempo te leren.
Grammatica & expressies in context
De video bevat verschillende nuttige structuren die je kunt herhalen:
- "Let's go inside...": Een informele manier om een handeling te initiëren, perfect voor alledaagse gesprekken.
- "You can order an Americano": Gebruik van "can" om mogelijkheden te beschrijven, essentieel voor het uiten van keuzes.
- "If you don't like strong coffee, order a light roast": Een conditionele zin die je helpt om advies te geven of keuzes te motiveren, handig voor IELTS spreekvaardigheid oefenen.
- "Just say to the barista, can I get that iced?": Directe aanwijzingen voor communicatie, leer hoe je verzoeken stelt in een natuurlijke manier.
Veelvoorkomende uitspraaktraps
Sommige woorden in de video kunnen lastig zijn. Let op:
- Espresso: Vaak verkeerd uitgesproken als "espresso" met een harde "s", maar de juiste uitspraak is "eh-spreh-so" (met een zachte "s").
- Macchiato: Let op de klinkers: "ma-kee-ah-toh", niet "ma-chai-toh".
- Roasted: De "ed" aan het einde wordt zacht uitgesproken, bijna als "roast-id".
- Ethiopia: Pronuncieer het als "ee-thee-oh-pee-ah", niet "eh-ti-op-ee-ah".
Door deze woorden te oefenen met schaduw spreken, verbetert je engelse uitspraak aanzienlijk. Herhaal de zinnen langzaam, en vergelijk je eigen uitspraak met die van de spreker.
Grammatica in deze video
De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:
| Structuur | In de video |
|---|---|
| Lijdende vorm be + voltooid deelwoord — het gaat om wat er gebeurt, niet om wie het doet | was founded · is grown · are roasted |
| Betrekkelijke bijzinnen who / which + zin — extra informatie over een persoon of ding | dolce, which means · caf, which means · grande, which means |
| Werkwoord + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — werkwoorden die door de -ing-vorm worden gevolgd | start talking · keep trying |
| Toekomst met “will” will + werkwoord — een besluit, belofte of voorspelling | will tell · will be |
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.
