Welcome back to the English channel and today we have a very special video.

I'll be teaching you or giving you tips on how not to think in your native language.

So maybe you speak Spanish, how not to think in Spanish and then translate into English.

But so remember this 20 -minute vlog is the same thing as a one -hour English class.

And how is that?

Through comprehensible input so today I'll show you guys different vocabulary words

while I'm walking home and you guys see behind me there is a palm tree here

and there is a beautiful view so

and I'm also sitting I'm also sitting on a bench

and this is a wooden bench that I'm sitting on

so let's go through the first three tips of how not

to translate in english in your head as you remember i have some notes in my phone

so the first the first tip that i'm going to show you teach you guys is

learn don't learn single words learn phrases so for example

when you have i'll show you guys this in front of me you guys have

here is you guys see over here here is the beach

so instead of learning just the word beach you can learn this beach this beach is beautiful

so you learn this beach is beautiful instead of just learning one specific word the beach

so when you're watching my vlogs

and i show you a word try to attach it to a phrase and not just learn one word.

So I'll show you guys another.

Here there's some boats and there's some yachts.

So instead of just thinking about the boat or the yacht, you think about, oh, yachts are expensive.

So you learn a whole phrase instead of learning individual words.

That's number one.

That's the number one tip of how not to translate in your head learn complete phrases

or another example maybe you see a restaurant

so you see a restaurant in front of you

and instead of you can think restaurant in english in your head

but you could also think i'm hungry so restaurant i'm hungry

so attach phrases to words

that you learn in english for another another great example say

you want to learn the word understand don't just learn the word understand learn i don't understand

or i don't understand well so always attach a phrase to any new words

that you learn that is tip number one it's a very good

and useful tip so the tip number two is connect

so right now

when you think in your head let's say you me i speak two languages i speak french

and i speak english

so maybe i have um okay i'll show you guys in front of me

so this here in front of me is a stone wall you guys see the wall is made of stone

so in french i would say say um so instead of saying translating it into french in your head

all you do is see the image this is a stone wall

and that's it you attach the phrase to an image

so i'll give you another example let's say you're learning the

word banana instead of translating it into banana you just picture a banana in your head

so you picture the word that you're learning

or maybe it's more of a complicated word it's not an object like a banana

or a stone wall maybe it's a word like think

so you can attach a question mark to it

so a question mark oh think

or maybe you attach the bubbles you remember you know those cartoons where there's a bubble figure

and he's thinking you attach

that image to the word think not your native language that's another great tip to to learn english

so don't don't attach it to your native language attach it to the actual image of whatever you're learning

so that's tip number two

and the third tip before we learn some more easy english

the third tip is describe what you're doing in English every day

so let's say me right now I'm walking home

so let's say you're by yourself you think in your head I'm walking home

then you see a beautiful car for example in your head you think that's a beautiful car

so when you're doing everyday actions maybe you're cleaning you say oh i'm washing the dishes

and you think in your act in your head so when you're doing everyday activities walking home

going to work cleaning think in english don't think in your native language

if you can if you can do this during two three months where every day

when you wake up in the morning you say oh

i'm tired and you say that in your head or you're brushing your teeth you say oh

it's a busy it's going to be a busy day today

and you think about that in your head so learn simple english phrases

and repeat those phrases in your head daily

so it doesn't need to maybe maybe for the day you

do it maybe imagine for the day you do it 20 times for the day you do it once

when you wake up you do it when you're brushing your teeth

but you have 24 hours in the day so

if you have 24 hours in the day you have enough time to learn specific English phrases

and think about those phrases in your head

that is the third tip very useful English tip

so like i said if you this is your first time watching with me you'll learn english and you'll always get

a beautiful view

so this is your beautiful view for today those boats on the water those boats are called yachts

and here in front of me this is a beautiful garden

and even when you're watching my vlogs you can think in english in your head also

so you can think oh teacher troy just passed a beautiful garden

or teacher troy is looking at some at the ocean so

that is a great those are the three great english tips

so let's review those three english tips quickly the first one the first one is learn phrases

and not single words so don't write down apple banana orange or

statue don't write down a statue

when you learn the word statue think this statue is beautiful learn a phrase with the word

that you learn or this statue is it was gray look it's a gray statue you

so learn a whole phrase instead of just one vocabulary word

when you're learning new words

that was tip number one tip number two tip number two was um oh yeah connect

when you learn a new word in english don't connect it to your native language

so if you speak portuguese

and you learn the word banana don't attach it to the word banana

if you're watching and you're from brazil i don't know the word for banana in portuguese

so leave it in the comments below so i can learn some portuguese

so if you're learning this don't attach it to the portuguese word

100

or let's say you're watching from uh i don't know some

101

you're watching from morocco don't attach it to a french word

102

or let's say you're watching from china don't attach it to a man a mandarin word

103

or a Cantonese word attach it to an image

104

so here in front of me we have a beautiful entrance you guys see

105

that there's a beautiful entrance here and there's two pots pots with flower pots

106

so instead of you learn the word entrance say you can learn

107

that entrance looks beautiful so you attach a whole phrase with it

108

or you just learn the word entrance

109

and you picture a beautiful entrance in your head

110

so don't attach it to the word attach it to a picture

111

or an image in your head and that's how you can stop translating into English

112

or translating from your native language into English

113

and the last one is think in English remember the third one is think in English so

114

when you're going about your day think in English

115

when you wake up you say I feel good today in your head

116

or i feel tired today in your head

117

or i'm hungry i need to grab some breakfast in your head

118

so make sure you use whatever you're doing every day and think in your head

119

all right so let's do some walking

120

and some learning here you guys see this in front of me these buildings these buildings are called townhouses

121

and townhouses are when two things

122

when buildings are attached you see how they're all attached there's one two three four buildings

123

so when they're all attached like that they're called townhouses very useful english word townhouses

124

oh and then here look i'll show you guys in front of me there is a lion

125

but the lion has a shield you guys see

126

that it's a shield great english word there shield

127

and oh here there's a window everybody knows window

128

but what are these two things here these two things they're called the shutters

129

so you use shutters to block out the light

130

or block out the sun in the morning time you close the shutters

131

and light can't get into your room so very useful word shutters

132

but I'm gonna keep walking down this way

133

and I'll teach you guys some more English in a little bit all right

134

so I walked a little bit I maybe walked for five

135

minutes now let's learn three more english tips to stop translating in your head

136

and before we teach you these tips it's very important not to translate in your head

137

because when you translate hold on let's say you're a beginner

138

if you're a beginner level a1 a2 you can't yet have

139

full conversations in your head yes you need to translate you need to translate words

140

that you don't know but this is more for people who are at a b1

141

or b2 level of english

142

so you can have basic conversations you can say hello how are you

143

and have basic conversations but you're blocked because something slows down

144

because it slows you down when you're translating in your head

145

so if you're at this point where you understand everything

146

that i'm saying you understand basic english conversations and so

147

if you understand basic english conversations you understand everything

148

that i'm saying then this is for you to stop translating in your head

149

because this is the the the next level of english for

150

you to really be able to have great conversations you need to stop translating in your head

151

so if you're a beginner yes you need to translate a little bit

152

but if you're more of an intermediate level you need to stop translating in your head

153

so how do you stop translating in your head let me

154

give you those three tips now the first one is very simple use english you already know

155

so if you're at an intermediate level

156

or you're maybe at an almost intermediate level you know already a lot of english words

157

so when you're going about your day use english words

158

that you already know don't try to get too fancy

159

or too complicated use english words that you already know

160

so let me give you an example um instead of the

161

weather is absolutely incredible you just say the weather is nice

162

or instead of saying exhausted you just say i'm tired

163

so try to keep your english simple or

164

if you say i'm instead of trying to remember i'm starving

165

that means i'm hungry very hungry you just say i'm hungry

166

use the english words you already know the second one is very important don't translate

167

every new word you don't know

168

so let me give you an example um what's here uh

169

all right yeah here we got in front of us there

170

you guys see on the top there there's a roof but on the roof

171

those orange type things they're called shingles they're called shingles

172

so maybe you don't know this word shingles don't look go to google translate

173

and type in shingles and then look at the portuguese word

174

if you speak portuguese or if

175

if you look at the word shingles you don't look at the chinese word

176

or mandarin word if you speak chinese remember the image of the shingle in your head very important

177

or try to describe it and in another way an english way so

178

it was the thing that's on top of a roof that's a shingle so instead of attaching it to

179

your native language you attach it to um your own definition of the new thing

180

so i'll give you another example here it's called a look you guys see this here it's a pole

181

but you guys see at the top there there's something

182

that catches the water so that what catches the water that's called a gutter

183

so instead of looking up what gutter means

184

and the opposite you say okay those things

185

that are on the roofs of houses that catch water those are called gutters

186

so you attach it to a definition an english definition instead of translating it into your into your native language

187

that is a very useful english tip and the next one

188

the next one is oh oh sorry oh hold on I have to get these my notes out sorry

189

so the next one is very good one the sixth one repeat everyday phrases until they become automatic

190

so everyday phrases I have a lot of different English phrases videos

191

so go watch my English phrases video and write down two

192

or three great English phrases I'll give you some examples

193

so you can have I don't know instead of always saying

194

in French the second language as je ne sais pas you

195

just say I don't know in English all the time every

196

time you need to say I don't know you say I

197

don't know in English instead of je ne sais pas in french

198

or if you have another simple phrase like i think

199

so je pense que that's what you would say in french

200

instead of saying it in french say it in english so everyday phrases like i think so

201

what do you mean or give me a second or that makes sense repeat those everyday phrases

202

in english daily

203

so what every time you don't know something you say i don't know in english not your native language

204

and you can say all these things in your own head

205

because you don't yes speaking is very important yes speaking is very important

206

but also your inner monologue so inner monologue is how you think in your head

207

that is also very important

208

so what this video is designed to help you guys with is to help you with your inner monologue

209

so when you're speaking english you can think in your head in your inner monologue

210

so when you don't know something in your head think i don't know

211

when you want to have

212

when you want someone to wait for you give me a

213

second in your head think of all these simple english phrases in your head and repeat them daily

214

we're trying to build your inner monologue so very useful english tip

215

so i'll show you guys in front of me i just

216

oh behind me was the beach a lot of beach with the water

217

and here in front of me is called old antiv

218

so it's like downtown antiv um there you go

219

so like i said before you see there's a restaurant here

220

so when you see a restaurant you think i'm hungry or i need to eat have that

221

inner monologue

222

or you can say oh the restaurant is very empty there's not a lot of people in the restaurant

223

so when you're walking in your everyday life think in english very useful

224

and oh in front of me here there's a baby being pushed in a stroller

225

so that's a very good english word there baby and stroller

226

and what else do we got here here oh i'll show

227

you guys in front of me you guys see here i'm

228

about to walk through something this here is called a tunnel then a tunnel is just a there's a wall

229

and there's a tunnel in the wall and you can walk through it

230

so that's what i'm going to do now walk through this tunnel

231

and that takes me to the other side where the port is the boat port

232

i'm gonna cross the road here quickly but all right

233

as you guys see here it looks kind of not it's

234

not very organized you guys see there's a lot of this stuff everywhere you see

235

that there's like it's not really nice it's not really organized

236

and oh it's it smells like fish it smells like fish you guys know what

237

that fish smells like that's what it smells like right now fish oh

238

and there's some fish here in the water i don't know

239

if you guys will be able to see the fish in the water can you guys see the fish

240

oh yeah you guys can see the fish

241

and those fish are swimming in the water they're swimming under the water

242

so fish swim under the water usually okay oh hold on

243

one second i got an english quiz for you guys we talked about it earlier there was those lions

244

and they were holding something what was they called i'll show you guys here

245

so you guys can have another this lady

246

or this this guy what's he holding statue you what is

247

it i'll give you guys five four three two one it is a shield

248

and that was one of the first one of the english words we learned today

249

250

and stop thinking and translating into your native language

251

so let me guys let me give you guys the next

252

three i'll hold on one second here i'll show you guys

253

here these here are called um um containers you guys see these these are called containers

254

and things can go inside the containers usually they have shipping containers that's what they're called shipping containers

255

and usually you put them on boats

256

so those behind me there those are called shipping containers and here in front of me

257

there are some electric bikes but that's a very easy english word

258

so let's dive a little deeper so these here these are called wheels

259

and in the wheels there's called the spokes those metal bars they're called spokes

260

and and here there right here where is it there that's called the pedal

261

and that's how you move on the actual bike itself

262

so those are some useful english words there we had wheel spokes

263

and pedal all on the electric bike very useful english words

264

all right so i'm going to continue walking home

265

271

so remember don't translate it into your native language you have

272

ferris wheel now new word ferris wheel you attach this image

273

the ferris wheel behind me to the word ferris wheel so

280

so some a lot of people have been putting in the

281

comments they've been listening to my vlogs every day this is a very good thing

282

but maybe you need to add something else

283

so maybe you need to listen to my vlogs

284

and you also need to listen to music let me guys

285

give you a quick story of how i learned french so

286

when i was learning french there was a point i where

287

i i listened to music right everybody listens to music there was a point for maybe six months

288

or so where i only listened to french music

289

if i put music in my ears it was only french

290

i didn't listen to one english song for six months this

291

is the type of dramatic changes it's not really dramatic

292

because it's just listening to music

293

and english music is some of the best music in the world

294

so and you guys are listening to the vlog

295

so you guys want to learn english stop if you're

296

if you're brazilian a lot of people who watch from brazil

297

if you're from india stop listening to indian music for a

298

while maybe six months four months or you're from brazil stop listening to portuguese music

299

or maybe you're from mexico stop listening to spanish music

300

or maybe you're from france where i live stop listening to

301

french music for four to six months only listen to english music

302

when you get in your car

303

and you drive somewhere english music maybe you like to work out

304

and you like to listen to music english music maybe you like to clean

305

and when you're cleaning you listen to music only English music

306

that is another great way to stop translating in your head

307

listen to the English music only for a long period of time whoa this guy coming a little close

308

whoa he's a little close eh that there is a seagull

309

and the seagull is look what he's what is he doing

310

he's trying to eat it's plastic it's not food man it's plastic you can't eat

311

that bro anyways let's go back to learning some english all right

312

so the next one is very simple we kind of covered it today

313

but talk to yourself in english so like i explained

314

when you're going for your day everyday life when you're walking home like me

315

and you're thinking in

316

and you're just thinking in your brain think in English don't

317

think in your native language this we need to start building your inner monologue your inner English monologue

318

so talk to yourself in English

319

when you're maybe you're um brainstorming very good English word brainstorming is

320

when you come up with different ideas so you can brainstorm different ideas

321

and remember what i said attach brainstorm that's a new word

322

that we learned today attach that to an image

323

so maybe you have an image of a brain in your head

324

and it's thinking the brain is thinking that's the image you attach to brainstorming because that's what it is so

325

that is the next tip hold on i'm i'm having a

326

i'm having a brain fart another good english a brain fart is when you forget so what

327

oh hold on one sec yo my phone is is i had all the notes down written down here and

328

oh yes here it is um talk to yourself in english

329

that was that next point sorry about

330

that wait guys my phone was bugging out so don't wait the next one is don't wait for the perfect translation

331

this is a very very good um way to stop thinking in your to stop translating in your head

332

so let's say you're trying to remember the word umbrella umbrella umbrella helps you

333

when you're when it's raining outside it protects you from the rain

334

and you can't remember the word you're you're speaking to someone

335

and you can't remember umbrella just describe the thing you can't remember

336

so you say oh i don't remember what it is you know the thing

337

that you that you have when it's raining and you describe it

338

that you describe what you're missing the the vocabulary word

339

that you're missing you describe it so you know the thing

340

that you use when it's raining and the person will say your umbrella

341

and you say oh yeah umbrella so

342

when you can't remember don't wait for the perfect translation just explain what you're thinking

343

so another example maybe you can't remember what a pharmacy is

344

so what's the word for pharmacy you know the place where you buy medicine so you You can't remember pharmacy,

345

so you say, okay, the place where you buy medicine.

346

You know the place, and you're going to say, oh, the pharmacy?

347

And you say, yeah, the pharmacy.

348

I got to go to the pharmacy.

349

Or maybe you can't remember the word neighbor.

350

Neighbor is the person who lives next to you.

351

So you're talking to someone, and you say, ah, I can't remember neighbor.

352

Oh, the person who lives next to me, they're very noisy.

353

You didn't even need to say neighbor.

354

And then you can ask the person, too what is

355

that what is that word of the the person

356

that lives next to you neighbor boom

357

and then you have you will be able to remember and

358

and be able to describe what's happening or whatever you're thinking easier

359

because you you don't need the actual vocabulary word you can describe what it is

360

so don't wait for the perfect translation just describe whatever it

361

is you forgot describe it that's another way great way and we have one more english tip for today

362

the last one is oh very good one very good last

363

point is give your brain time learning a new language it's not difficult

364

but it's not easy it just takes patience

365

so maybe you've been learning english for eight months

366

and you're like oh my god teacher troy i've been learning english for eight months

367

and i still don't understand everything you say i understand most

368

but i don't understand everything and it's frustrating just remember learning a new language takes time it takes patience so

369

so just remember that learning a new language takes time so

370

if you do all these things

371

that i mentioned let me go through all the things the 10 i'll give you guys 10 tips today

372

so you guys can stop translating in your head

373

or apply all these 10 tips you will stop translating in

376

your head in in four months five months time easily easily all right so the number one learn phrases not single words

377

Don't learn the word hungry.

378

Learn, I'm hungry.

379

I want to eat.

380

Learn the whole phrase.

381

Second, connect English directly to pictures.

382

So don't connect new words to your native language.

383

Connect it to a picture or an image.

384

The third one is describe what you're doing in English every day.

385

So when you're brushing your teeth, say, I'm brushing my teeth.

386

When you're getting up in the morning you say i'm getting up i'm tired

387

or i feel great today

388

or i feel great today i'm gonna watch teacher troyes video third one is

389

or fourth one use english you already know

390

don't make it too complicated use english you already know next is don't translate every single word you don't know

391

so when you learn a new word don't go to google translate and translate it from English into your new word.

392

Try to describe what it is.

393

So describe whatever it is and attach your description to the new word or your image to the new word.

394

Next tip is repeat everyday phrases until they become automatic.

395

So everyday phrases are I don't know, I think so, what do you mean?

396

397

and repeat them daily every day repeat them in your head

398

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.
