Can you give us directions?
8
Dory, heaven knows what you're saying.
9
See, he's swimming away.
10
Come back.
11
He's not coming back.
12
We've offended him.

17
what's up global citizens today we're learning english with finding nemo
18
so i'm ethan your real life english fluency coach
19
and i watched this movie countless times when i was a kid
20
and i'm excited to teach you with my favorite scene from
21
the movie where we can learn to speak whale you know
22
when you get into a conversation and a word you know you've learned won't come to your mouth
23
you feel stuck using the same basic phrases all the time
24
so your speaking isn't natural like it is in your mother tongue
25
and this is normal most english learners understand much more english than they can speak
26
because they spend a lot of time training their listening
27
but not their speaking well to help with this i have

What are you waiting for?

33
Let's kick off our lesson with this expression, heaven knows.
34
This is a phrase you can use when something is a mystery.
35
No one can explain it.
36
It's a more dramatic way of saying, I have no idea.
37
Merlin is basically saying that what Dory is saying to the whale is completely incomprehensible.
38
You'll sometimes hear God knows, which means the same thing.
39
Here are some examples.
40
Wait, where did you know Kent Olive go?
41
Heaven knows.
42
In the American accent?
43
I don't know, passages find America more reassuring, God knows why.
44
Or like in the Beach Boys famous song.
45
And I'm sure you get frustrated when you can't understand natives because we speak too fast.
46
Usually it's not actually because of speed, but connected speech.
47
That's how we cut, reduce, and link our words together in fluent speech.
48
Like here.
49
So when a T is between two vowels in American English, it usually becomes a tap T, which sounds like the.
50
And the three first words of this question all link together into one sound.
51
What are you?
52
What are you doing?
53
What are you doing?
54
If you want to improve your speaking, you need to practice a lot.
55
So listen to Marlon again and try to say that just like him.
56
What are you doing?
57
What are you doing?
58
What are you doing?
59
What are you doing?
60
And next, Marlon criticizes Dory's whale speaking skills.
61
Dory, this is not whale.
62
You're speaking like upset stomach.
63
Hilarious.
64
Marlon is saying that Dory doesn't sound like a whale at all.
65
She sounds like someone with a stomach ache.
66
An upset stomach is when your stomach feels uncomfortable.
67
Maybe it's a little sick, crampy, or just off.
68
You'd say this if you ate something bad or you're feeling nauseous.
69
Check out this example.
70
What do you think you're doing?
71
Let the little ones have their share.
72
We don't want you getting an upset stomach.
73
Maybe I should try humpback.
74
No, don't try humpback.
75
Whoa!
76
All right.
77
Whoa!
78
You actually sound sick.
79
In this scene, we hear two types of whales.
80
A humpback whale is one of the most famous species.
81
They're known for their long, haunting songs, which scientists still study today then she mentions another type of
82
whale dolphin actually too much orca didn't it sound a little
83
orca it doesn't sound orca it sounds like nothing i've ever heard
84
so this is an orca also called a killer whale the suffix story used is super native ish
85
when you add ish to the end of a word it means kind of it makes the word less exact
86
so orca ish means a bit like an orca are you hungry kind of I'm a bit peckish.
87
What time did you arrive?
88
11 -ish.
89
Was the movie good?
90
It was okay -ish.
91
You can add ish to almost anything in casual conversation.
92
It's one of those little words that immediately makes your English sound more natural and native.
93
Now let's rewind.
94
The reason Dory is speaking whale here is because she and Marlon got lost and need directions.
95
Watch here.
96
Let's see.
97
Okay, no one there.
98
Uh, nope.
99
Nada.
100
Oh, there's somebody.
101
Hey!
102
It's a fish we don't know.
103
And if we ask for directions, it could ingest us and spit out our bones.
104
What is it with men and asking for directions?
105
You want to get out of here, don't you?
106
Of course I do.
107
Well, then, how are we gonna do that unless we give it a shot and hope for the best?
108
Huh?
109
Huh?
110
You don't fully understand.
111
Come on.
112
Trust me on this.
113
All right.
114
Excuse me!
115
Woo!
116
Little fella?
117
Hello?
118
Don't be rude, say hi.
119
Hello?
120
His son Bingo, Nemo, was taken to, uh...
121
Sidney.
122
Sidney!
123
Yes, and it's really, really important that we get there as fast as we can, so can you help us out?
124
Come on, little fella!
125
Come on!
126
Dory I'm a little fella I don't think that's a little fella oh oh big fella big whale
127
so we saw some more nice expressions in
128
that part let's take a closer look let's see okay no
129
one there uh nope nada what do you think nada means a little bit everything nothing
130
that's right nada means nothing zero zilch it actually comes from spanish
131
but it's been fully absorbed in casual english you'll hear it all the time in everyday conversation
132
if a friend asks did anything interesting happen today
133
and nothing did you might just say nada it's a fish we don't know And if we ask you directions, it could ingest us and spit out our bones.
134
What is it with men and asking for directions?
135
Marlin is scared that the creature might eat them.
136
That's what to ingest means.
137
To swallow or take something into the body.
138
It's a formal word.
139
Doctors, for example, often ask, did you ingest anything unusual before you started feeling sick?
140
And this next line had two great expressions.
141
You want to get out of here, don't you?
142
Of course I do.
143
Well then, how are we going to do that unless we give it a shot and hope for the best?
144
To give it a shot means to try something.
145
especially when you're not sure if it'll work.
146
It's the same idea as give it a try.
147
You'll hear this one constantly in English.
148
Think of Blackpink's Lisa.
149
Before her acting debut in The White Lotus, she had never acted a day in her life.
150
But when the opportunity came, she said she'd give it a shot.
151
And listen to this other example.
152
And I think if you give it a shot, you might love it too.
153
And then hope for the best means to stay optimistic about an outcome, even though you can't control what happens.
154
you do what you can and then you hope all we can do is wait
155
and hope for the best think about these two expressions we
156
just covered give it a shot hope for the best now
157
if you got in a conversation later today would you be able to use these expressions naturally like a native speaker
158
how about next week
159
or a month from now every learner faces this problem one it's hard to remember new expressions
160
and two even if you remember what it means when you hear
161
or see it it's really not the same thing to feel confident speaking it.
162
Well, over the last 13 years, helping millions of learners like you, we've discovered the most effective way to communicate confidently.
163
Watch or listen to native media like Finding Nemo, practice the new vocabulary, and use that vocabulary in a real conversation.
164
And this is exactly what you'll do on the real life app.
165
So try it yourself.
166
And trust me, with this process, you will feel a lot more confident using these words in your life.
167
Just click the link below to get your free gift on the RealLife Half Now.
168
By the way, that line was absolutely packed with connected speech for us to break down.
169
Listen again.
170
Well then, how are we going to do that unless we give it a shot and hope for the best?
171
Let me give you a tip for pronunciation.
172
In English, we have content words.
173
These are the nouns, adjectives, verbs, etc. that carry the main meaning of the sentence.
174
We emphasize these.
175
Then, there are the function words.
176
These are the auxiliary verbs, pronouns, articles, prepositions, etc. that add grammatical structure.
177
They're usually reduced.
178
So, function words in this phrase like R, 2, It, a, for, and the disappear or link to the surrounding words.
179
How are becomes how -er, how -er.
180
Going to becomes gonna, gonna.
181
It a becomes id -a, id -a.
182
And for the becomes further, further.
183
Pay attention to how I say it.
184
How are we gonna do that unless we give it a shot and hope for the best?
185
How are we gonna do that unless we give it a shot and hope for the best?
186
All right, now you try.
187
Listen to Dory again and try to say that line fluently like her.
188
How are we gonna do that unless we give it a shot and hope for the best?
189
How are we gonna do that unless we give it a shot and hope for the best?
190
Excuse me!
191
Woo -hoo!
192
Little fella?
193
Aww, so fella is an informal word usually for a boy or man.
194
Think of it like dude, but slightly more old -fashioned.
195
So little fella is an affectionate way to dress someone or something small.
196
And then, as Dory says later, he's actually a big fella.
197
Dory, I'm a little fella.
198
i don't think that's a little fella oh oh big fella big whale
199
so dory is successful in getting the whale's attention it's just
200
as well he might be hungry don't worry whales don't eat clown fish they eat krill run away oh look krill
201
move dory move now let's see what happens after dory and marlin are sucked up by the whale What's going on?
202
Don't know.
203
I'll ask him.
204
Dory.
205
What's going on?
206
What is that noise?
207
Oh, no. Look what you did.
208
The water's going down.
209
It's going down.
210
Really?
211
You sure about that?
212
Look, already it's half empty Hmm, I didn't say it's half full Stop that!
213
It's half empty!
214
Okay, that one was a little tougher He either said we should go to the back of the throat
215
Or he wants a root beer float Of course he wants us to go there That's eating us!
216
How do I taste, Moby?
217
Huh?
218
Do I taste good?
219
You tell him I'm not interested in being lunch.
220
What is going on?
221
Oh, shit.
222
Okay.
223
Doreen!
224
He says it's time to let go.
225
Everything's gonna be all right.
226
How do you know?
227
How do you know something bad isn't gonna happen?
228
I don't!
229
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
230
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
231
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Uh, Sidney!
232
Uh, Sidney again!
233
You were right, Dory, we made it!
234
We're gonna find my son!
235
Thank you, sir!
236
Wow, I wish I could speak well.
237
Oh no, look what you did.
238
The water's going down, it's going down! going down simply means something is decreasing
239
or dropping in this case the water level inside the whale
240
but this little phraser verb is super versatile an elevator goes
241
down prices go down the sun goes down you can even
242
use it to ask about a situation what's going down is informal slang for what's happening
243
so depending on the context it can be totally literal
244
or quite casual and And then we heard a classic expression in English about mindset and personality.
245
really you sure about that look already it's half empty i didn't say it's half full stop
246
that it's half empty
247
when you say the glass is half empty it means you tend to focus on the negative side of things
248
when you say it's half full you're focusing on the positive
249
side this is one of the most famous ways to describe as someone is a pessimist
250
or an optimist marlin the anxious clownfish who spent the whole
251
movie worrying of course sees the glass as half empty and dory the eternal ray of sunshine?
252
Half full, obviously.
253
Think of someone like Nelson Mandela.
254
He spent 27 years in prison, but came out determined to improve South Africa, not negative about what he lost.
255
Now that's a glass half full kind of person.
256
Now let's look at a bit of native grammar.
257
You sure about that?
258
Look, already it's half empty.
259
So Dory doesn't say a full, are you sure about that?
260
She says, you sure about that?
261
This happened earlier too.
262
She said, don't know instead of I don't know.
263
Native speakers do this all the time in casual conversation.
264
We drop words like I, are, do, and have, especially at the beginning of a sentence.
265
It makes speech faster and more natural.
266
Here are a few more examples you'll hear constantly.
267
Got it instead of I got it.
268
Seen that movie instead of have you seen that movie?
269
coming tonight instead of are you coming tonight
270
so next time you watch a movie or tv show
271
and feel like you missed the first words of a sentence this might be why okay
272
that one was a little tougher he either said we should go to the back of the throat
273
or he wants a root beer float of course he wants
274
us to go there that's eating us how do i taste movie huh i love this misunderstanding friend dory
275
so a root beer float is a classic american treat it's
276
a glass of root beer a sweet fizzy non -alcoholic drink
277
with a scoop of vanilla ice cream floating on top yum
278
and marlin casually nicknames the whale moby this is referring to
279
moby dick one of the most famous novels in american literature
280
by herman melville it's about captain ahab who's obsessed with hunting a massive white sperm whale named moby dick even
281
if american hasn't read it they probably know classic lines from it like, there she blows.
282
This touching line from Dory actually has two meanings at once.
283
So the literal one, the whale is telling them to physically release their grip and drop.
284
But the deeper meaning to let go also means to stop holding on to fear worry
285
or control for marlon the entire movie is about learning to
286
let go of his fear of his need to protect nemo from every possible danger
287
and dory's role is helping him to discover this you'll hear this expression all the time both literally
288
and emotionally you need to let go of the past let
289
go of the rope sometimes you just have to let go
290
and trust the process and luckily we see that dory was right you were right dory we We made it!
291
We're going to find my son.
292
We made it is an expression of pure relief and triumph.
293
It means you succeeded at something difficult.
294
Ellie is so beautiful.
295
We made it.
296
We made it.
297
You've done great today.
298
And now comes the most important part.
299
You'll test your comprehension by watching all the scenes again without subtitles and answering some quiz questions.
300
Give it your best shot.
301
Let's see.
302
Okay, no one there.
303
Uh, nope.
304
Not a...
305
There's somebody.
306
Hey!
307
It's you!
308
Dory, Dory, Dory!
309
Okay, now it's my turn.
310
I'm thinking of something dark and mysterious.
311
It's a fish we don't know.
312
And if we ask her directions, it could ingest us and spit out our bones.
313
What is it with men and asking for directions?
314
I don't want to play the gender card right now.
315
You want to play a card?
316
Let's play the let's not die card.
317
You want to get out of here, don't you?
318
Of course I do well then your friend asked
319
if you wanted to try a new restaurant you've never heard of you're not sure
320
but you're willing to try what do you say i'll give it a shot heaven knows we made it
321
and how are we gonna do that unless we give it a shot and hope for the best
322
you don't fully understand trust me on this All right.
323
Excuse me!
324
Little fella?
325
Hello?
326
Don't be rude.
327
Say hi.
328
Hello, his son Bingo Nemo was taken to Sydney,
329
yes, and it's really really important that we get there as fast as we can so can you help us out?
330
Come on little fella Come on Dory, I'm a little fella.
331
I don't think that's a little fella.
332
Oh Big fella big well,
333
okay, maybe only speaks whale We need to find a son.
334
Are you sure you speak, whale?
335
Can you give us directions?
336
See?
337
He's swimming away.
338
Come back.
339
He's not coming back.
340
We've offended him.
341
Maybe a different dialect.
342
Dory.
343
Dory, this is not whale.
344
You're speaking like upset stomach.
345
Maybe I should try humpback.
346
No, don't try humpback.
347
You actually sound sick.
348
Maybe louder, huh?
349
Don't do that.
350
Too much orca.
351
Didn't it sound a little orca -ish?
352
It doesn't sound orca -ish.
353
The suffix ish makes a word mean kind of or sort of.
354
Fill in the blank with the correct ish word.
355
What time does the party start?
356
You can arrive around...
357
What time does the party start?
358
You can arrive around seven -ish.
359
It sounds like nothing I've ever heard.
360
Just as well, he might be hungry.
361
Don't worry, whales don't eat clownfish, they eat krill.
362
Run away!
363
Oh look, krill!
364
Move, Dory!
365
Move!
366
What's going on?
367
Don't know, I'll ask him.
368
Dory, Dory, Dory, Dory, what is that noise?
369
Oh no, look what you did, the water's going down, it's, it's, it's, it's going down.
370
Really, you sure about that?
371
Look, already it's half empty.
372
true or false a person who says the glass is half full is a pessimist
373
false half full is an optimist half empty is a pessimist
374
okay that one was a little tougher he either said we should go to the back of the throat
375
or he wants a root beer float.
376
Of course he wants us to go there!
377
That's eating us!
378
How do I taste, Moby?
379
Huh?
380
Do I taste good?
381
You tell him I'm not interested in being lunch!
382
What is going on?
383
Oh, Jeff!
384
Okay!
385
Doreen!
386
He says it's time to let go!
387
Everything's going to be all right.
388
How do you know?
389
How do you know something bad isn't going to happen?
390
I don't!
391
I don't!
392
Match each expression on the left with a situation it fits best on the right.
393
We're going to find my son.
394
Thank you, sir.
395
Wow.
396

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.
