1
When you concentrate, you stink.
2
But perhaps that is my fault.
3
I cannot train you the way I have trained the Five.
4
I now see that the way to get through to you is with this.
5
Oh, great.
6
Because I am hungry.
7
Good.
8
When you have been trained, you may eat.
9
Let's begin.
10
Oh yeah, Global Citizens, I'm Xenia, your real-life fluency coach.
11
And in today's lesson, we're going to learn English with training scenes from Kung Fu Panda.
12
Along the way, you'll learn everyday expressions that natives actually use in real situations,
13
lousy months at a time and gets through to someone
14
and to help you learn
15
and never forget these important expressions we want to give you
16

the link below thousands of learners just like you are learning to speak English fluently every day
19
and having fun while doing it All right, now we begin our story today in the kitchen, where Poe's cooking for the Furious Five,
20
and telling a story to impress them, trying to sound a lot braver than he really is.
21
Let's watch the first scene with subtitles in English before we learn the advanced words.
22
I'm like, fine, you may be a wolf,
23
you may be the scariest bandit in Hajin province, but you're a lousy tipper.
24
Really?
25
So how'd you get out of there alive?
26
I mean, I didn't actually say that, but I thought it in my mind.
27
If he could read my mind, he'd have been like, What?
28
Order up!
29
Hope you like it.
30
This is really good.
31
No, come on.
32
You should try my dad's secret ingredient soup.
33
He actually knows the secret ingredient.
34
What are you talking about?
35
This is amazing.
36
Wow, you're a really good cook.
37
I wish my mouth was bigger.
38
Tigress, you've got to try this.
39
It is said that the dragon warrior can survive for months at a time on nothing
40
but the dew of a single ginkgo leaf and the energy of the universe.
41
I guess my body doesn't know it's the Dragon Warrior yet.
42
We need a lot more than dew and universe juice.
43
Oh, nothing, Master Shifu.
44
You'll never be the Dragon Warrior unless you lose 500 pounds and brush your teeth.
45
What is that noise you're making?
46
After I never heard of it.
47
Work hard, Linda, and maybe someday you will have ears like mine.
48
That's good.
49
Ears?
50
It's not working for you?
51
I thought they were pretty good.
52
It's Shifu.
53
Of course it's Shifu.
54
What do you think I'm doing?
55
Ooh, Master Shifu.
56
At the beginning of the scene, Pope uses a couple of words that are more advanced.
57
Did you catch those?
58
You may be the scariest bandit in Hajin province, but you're a lousy tipper.
59
If you say something is lousy, you mean it's very bad or poor quality.
60
For example, you might say, that was a lousy movie.
61
I had a lousy day or he's a lousy driver.
62
And a tipper is someone who gives a tip, extra money given to workers to thank them for good service.
63
In certain countries, like the US, it's common to tip 20% in restaurants.
64
So a lousy tipper is someone who tips very little or nothing at all.
65
Now listen to how Crane responds.
66
Did you notice how the words how did you get out of flowed naturally here?
67
This is because it was full of connected speech, the way natives cut through Jews and link words together when they speak.
68
Let's break it down.
69
It'll be great for improving your pronunciation.
70
First, instead of how'd you, he said how'd you.
71
This is a common pattern where there's a D and a Y next to each other, you can morph them into a J sound.
72
Listen to these examples.
73
When did you make this decision?
74
I told you it's over.
75
Next, get out becomes get out.
76
In American English, the T becomes this soft D sound when placed between vowels.
77
We call it flap T or the American T.
78
Like put on or it is.
79
Then the word off becomes a simple a sound, another common pattern.
80
And finally, we hear the American T again in out as it links to off.
81
Outer, outer.
82
Now the entire phrase.
83
How'd you get outa?
84
How'd you get outa there alive?
85
Now let's practice after crane.
86
How'd you get outa there alive?
87
How'd you get outa there alive?
88
So when Po finishes cooking, he uses a specific expression.
89
Check it out.
90
Order up!
91
Hope you like it.
92
You'll hear this a lot in restaurants.
93
The cook yells, order up!
94
To tell waiters the dish is done and ready to be taken to customers.
95
Order up!
96
Okay, order up!
97
Hey, number 1, order up!
98
This is really good!
99
No, come on, you should try my dad's secret ingredient soup.
100
He actually knows the secret ingredient.
101
What are you talking about?
102
This is amazing.
103
And just another note on connected speech.
104
Here we have another common pattern.
105
What are you may sound like warrior.
106
We have the American T, the word are being cut and the word you being reduced to ya.
107
Try to repeat.
108
What are you talking about?
109
What are you talking about?
110
Now, Tigris says something very serious, almost like legend.
111
It is said that the dragon warrior can survive for months at a time on nothing
112
but the dew of a single ginkgo leaf and the energy of the universe.
113
It is said is a formal way to introduce information that comes from common belief.
114
Tigris is referring to legendary stories about the dragon warrior.
115
It's like saying people say or according to tradition.
116
Check out this other example.
117
It is said that we humans use only a tiny portion of our brains.
118
It is said that every man has three tasks to accomplish in this world.
119
Okay, so it is said that practice makes perfect.
120
Have you ever heard that?
121
Well, I really want you to become that successful, fluent English speaker you've always dreamed of being.
122
However, I bet you feel lost about how to do this.
123
You feel too busy to dedicate enough time to studying, right?
124
Or you've been stuck at the same level forever.
125
And I know this because I've been there myself.
126
Remember, I'm an English learner just like you.
127
So, let me share with you a method to go from being a lost, insecure English learner to becoming a confident,
128
natural English speaker, even if you only have 10-15 minutes per day.
129
First, watch a short lesson like this one with Kung Fu Panda.
130
Second, practice the new words from that lesson with smart flashcards, which use science to help you remember new words forever.
131
And finally, third, speak the new words in a real conversation
132
so you feel confident using them in any situation
133
and practice pronunciation the great thing is we make it super
134
easy for you to do this all on the real life app
135
and in fact you can use the new words you're learning
136
today in a guided speaking conversation based on this exact lesson with kung fu panda right now stop just recognizing
137
and forgetting new words and start being able to actually speak them naturally.
138
So try it for free, just click the link in the description below.
139
It is said that the dragon warrior can survive for months at a time on nothing
140
but the dew of a single ginkgo leaf and the energy of the universe.
141
When you do something for months at a time, you do it continuously for months without stopping.
142
For example, she travels four weeks at a time he works for hours at a time without breaks
143
and they disappear for days at a time he's been holed
144
up in his room for days at a time playing old
145
video games my father would often disappear for months at a time
146
and dew is the tiny drop of water that forms on plants cars
147
or any surfaces overnight when the air cools down a ginkgo leaf is a leaf from the ginkgo tree
148
an ancient tree species with distinctive fan-shaped leaves.
149
Okay, so right after this, Poe starts doing an impersonation of Master Shifu.
150
An impersonation is when you copy the way someone talks and moves, usually in an exaggerated or funny way.
151
You'll never be the dragon warrior unless you lose 500 pounds and brush your teeth.
152
Pounds is a unit of weight used in the United States, abbreviated as LB.
153
While most of the world uses kilograms, Americans measure body weight in pounds.
154
One pound equals about 0.45 kilograms, which means 100 pounds is about 45 kilos.
155
So keep in mind, if you are talking about weight with Americans, they'll use pounds, not kilograms.
156
So the fun doesn't last long.
157
Shifu arrives and brings shocking news.
158
Tai Long, a powerful and dangerous Kung Fu warrior, has escaped from prison.
159
And he's coming for the Dragon Scroll.
160
And suddenly, everything becomes real for Po.
161
This isn't just a joke anymore.
162
He was chosen to be the Dragon Warrior, and now he actually has to face a real enemy.
163
Now, the next day, Shifu is still thinking about this, about Tai Long and about Po.
164
and when he goes looking for him, he finds him in the kitchen.
165
What?
166
I keep getting upset, okay?
167
Oh, no need to explain.
168
I just thought you might be monkey.
169
He hides his almond cookies on the top shelf an almond
170
is a type of nut like this it has a hard shell
171
but it's creamy inside it's commonly used in cookies
172
and desserts this is a shelf and the top shelf is the highest shelf hardest to reach
173
Don't tell monkey.
174
Look at you.
175
Yeah, I know.
176
I disgust you.
177
No, no, I mean, how did you get up there?
178
I don't know.
179
I guess, I don't know.
180
I was getting a cookie.
181
And yet you are 10 feet off the ground and have done a perfect split.
182
Feet, in this case, is a measurement of height.
183
Americans use feet instead of meters.
184
10 feet is about 3 meters.
185
If something is 10 feet off the ground, it's 3 meters above the floor.
186
Shifu is surprised that Poe is actually doing a perfect split.
187
A split is when you spread your legs wide apart like gymnasts and martial artists do.
188
A perfect split means your legs are completely flat, 180 degrees apart. So after
189
seeing what Poe could do in the kitchen, Shifu realizes something very important.
190
In the next scene, he decides to try a completely different way of training him.
191
Let's watch it.
192
When you concentrate, you stink.
193
But perhaps that is my fault.
194
I cannot train you the way I have trained the Five.
195
I now see that the way to get through to you is with this.
196
Oh, great.
197
Because I am hungry.
198
Good.
199
When you have been trained, you may eat.
200
Let's begin.
201
Oh!
202
Ah!
203
Ow!
204
Ow!
205
Ow!
206
Ah!
207
Ah!
208
Ah!
209
Yuck!
210
Yuck!
211
Yuck!
212
Huh?
213
Oh!
214
After you, Panda.
215
Just like that?
216
No sit-ups?
217
No-no-no-no-no ten mile hike?
218
I vowed to train you, and you have been trained.
219
You are free to eat.
220
Enjoy.
221
Hey!
222
I said you are free to eat.
223
Have a dumpling.
224
Hey!
225
Listen to what Shifu says in the beginning of post training.
226
When you concentrate, you stink.
227
What do you think stink means here?
228
Smell bad.
229
Being terrible at something or become nervous.
230
Literally, if you stink, you smell bad.
231
But here it's figurative.
232
When you say someone stinks at something, you mean they're really bad at it.
233
They perform poorly.
234
For example, I stink at math.
235
He stinks at cooking.
236
She stinks at dancing.
237
Perhaps means maybe or possibly.
238
Don't turn your back on me, Scar.
239
Oh no, Mufasa.
240
Perhaps you shouldn't turn your back on me.
241
It's commonly used in more polite speech.
242
But perhaps that is my fault.
243
I cannot train you the way I have trained the Five.
244
I now see that the way to get through to you is with this.
245
To get through to someone means to successfully communicate with them or make them understand something.
246
When you finally get through to someone, you're breaking through their resistance or confusion and they finally understand what you're trying to tell them.
247
Shifu is saying he's figured out how to teach Po effectively by using food as motivation.
248
So, Po goes through a few days of incense training and finally arrives at the moment where Shifu will let him eat.
249
After you is a polite phrase meaning you go first or you start first.
250
It's a gesture of courtesy, letting someone else take the first turn.
251
To you, Claude.
252
No, after you, sir.
253
No, after you, Claude.
254
No, after you, sir.
255
Oh, get the move on.
256
Just like that.
257
No sit-ups.
258
No, no, no, no, no 10-mile hike.
259
A sit-up is an exercise where you lie on your back
260
and lift your upper body up towards your knees repeatedly to strengthen your stomach muscles.
261
You also have push-ups and pull-ups, which are very common exercises.
262
So we've talked about pounds for weight and feet for height and short distances.
263
But what if we're talking about longer distances?
264
How do Americans talk about it?
265
That's where miles come in.
266
One mile is about 1.6 kilometers.
267
Two miles is a little over three kilometers.
268
I vowed to train you and you have been trained.
269
You are free to eat.
270
To vow means to make a serious promise or commitment.
271
When you vow to do something, you're promising to do it no matter what.
272
Check out this example.
273
But when the strangers left, they vowed to return.
274
When I adopted Sherman, I vowed to be the best father I could be, to prepare him for all the wonders of the world, present and past.
275
You are free to eat.
276
This is a phrase commonly used to give others permission to do something like there's nothing stopping you.
277
You're free to ask questions.
278
You're free to leave.
279
Well, now you're free to go back to your business.
280
Okay, you're free to go.
281
Enjoy your trip.
282
I said you are free to eat.
283
Have a dumpling.
284
A dumpling is a small piece of food made from dough usually filled with meat or vegetables.
285
They're very common in many cultures, in Ukrainian, Polish, and Chinese cuisine.
286
Now notice the structure Shifu used.
287
Have a dumpling.
288
Have a food or have a drink is a common phrase used to offer something to someone.
289
It's an invitation to take and consume something.
290
Have a cookie.
291
Have a seat.
292
Have some cake.
293
It's friendly and casual.
294
So Shifu finally finds a way to train Poe.
295
And from here, Poe starts to become the Dragon Warrior he's meant to be.
296
Now, are you ready to the final and most important step of the lesson?
297
We're gonna take everything you've just learned, the new vocabulary and pronunciation, and put it into practice.
298
You'll watch the whole scene again, this time without subtitles, and answer some quiz questions.
299
Let's do it!
300
You may be the scariest bandit in Hajin province, but you're a lousy tipper.
301
Really?
302
What does lousy mean in this context?
303
slightly disappointing poor quality unusual but interesting
304
so how'd you get out of there alive I mean I didn't actually say
305
that but I thought it in my mind he could read my mind he'd have been like, What?
306
Order up!
307
Hope you like it.
308
This is really good.
309
No, come on.
310
You should try my dad's secret ingredient soup.
311
He actually knows the secret ingredient.
312
What are you talking about?
313
This is amazing.
314
Wow, you're a really good cook.
315
I wish my mouth was bigger.
316
Tigress, you've got to try this.
317
It is said that the dragon warrior can survive for months at a time on nothing, Nothing but the dew of a single ginkgo leaf and the energy of the universe.
318
Which sentence uses at a time correctly?
319
He traveled for months at a time without taking breaks.
320
I studied many subjects at a time yesterday.
321
She worked at a time when she was tired.
322
I guess my body doesn't know it's the Dragon Warrior yet.
323
I'm gonna need a lot more than dew and, uh, universe juice.
324
What?
325
Oh, nothing, Master Shifu.
326
You'll never be the Dragon Warrior unless you lose 500 pounds and brush your teeth.
327
What is that noise you're making?
328
Laughter?
329
I never heard of it.
330
Work hard, Linda, and maybe someday you will have ears like mine.
331
What do you call the act of imitating others in a funny or exaggerated way?
332
Impersonation.
333
That's good.
334
Ears!
335
It's not working for you?
336
I thought they were pretty good.
337
It's Shifu.
338
Of course it's Shifu, what do you think I'm doing?
339
Ooh, Master Shifu!
340
What?
341
I keep going upset, okay?
342
Oh, no need to explain.
343
I just thought you might be monkey.
344
He hides his almond cookies on the top shelf.
345
Don't tell monkey.
346
Look at you.
347
Yeah, I know.
348
I disgust you.
349
No, no, I mean, how did you get up there?
350
I don't know.
351
I guess, I don't know.
352
I was getting a cookie.
353
And yet you are ten feet off the ground.
354
What is this person doing?
355
A split.
356
And have done a perfect split.
357
Now this?
358
This is just a.. accident.
359
There are no accidents.
360
Come with me.
361
When you concentrate, you stink.
362
But perhaps that is my fault.
363
I cannot train you the way I have trained the Five.
364
I now see that the way to get through to you is with this.
365
What does it mean to get through to you?
366
To reach you physically, to make you understand something, or to understand you without words.
367
Oh great, because I'm hungry.
368
Good.
369
When you have been trained, you may eat.
370
Let's begin.
371
After you, Panda.
372
Just like that?
373
No sit-ups?
374
No 10-mile hike?
375
Shifu promised to train Poe, but he doesn't say promised here, he uses a more formal word.
376
What does he say?
377
He vowed to train Poe.

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.
