26

27
And for now, let's watch today's first scene with subtitles in English.
28
All right.
29
So, Mother, as you know, tomorrow is a very big day...
30
Rapunzel, look in that mirror.
31
You know what I see?
32
I see a strong, confident, beautiful young lady.
33
Oh, look, you're here too.
34
I'm just teasing.
35
Stop taking everything so seriously.
36
Okay, so, Mother, as I was saying, tomorrow is...
37
Rapunzel, Mother's feeling a little run down.
38
Would you sing for me, dear?
39
Then we'll talk.
40
Oh, of course, Mother.
41
Flower gleaming glow, let your power shine.
42
Make that clock reverse, bring back what once was mine.
43
Do what has been hurt, change your faith's design.
44
Save what has been lost, and let what once was mine.
45
Rapunzel.
46
So, Mother, earlier I was saying tomorrow was a pretty big day, and you didn't really respond,
47
so I'm just going to tell you, it's my birthday!
48
Ta -da!
49
No, no, no, can't be.
50
I distinctly remember.
51
Your birthday was last year.
52
That's the funny thing about birthdays.
53
They're kind of an annual thing.
54
Mother, I'm turning 18, and I wanted to ask what I really want for this birthday.
55
Actually, what I wanted for a quite a few birthdays.
56
Okay, Rapunzel, please, stop with the mumbling.
57
You know how I feel about the mumbling.
58
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
59
It's very annoying.
60
I'm just teasing.
61
You're adorable.
62
I love you so much, darling.
63
What a terrible mother she is.
64
I feel so angry.
65
And I feel so sorry for Rapunzel.
66
She's been preparing for this moment for so long.
67
Now let's get back to what we heard her say at the start.
68
This is it.
69
This is a very big day, Pascal.
70
This is it means this is the moment.
71
The one you've been waiting for.
72
Like you could say this to yourself before a job interview you've been preparing for, or before going on stage for a big performance.
73
Let's hear how many times they repeat this phrase, this is it, when Princess Fiona is about to introduce Shrek to her parents.
74
Now, this is it.
75
This is it.
76
This is it.
77
This is it.
78
Going back to Mother Gothel, once she's up in the tower, she watches Rapunzel pull her hair back and says this.
79
Rapunzel, how you manage to do that every single day without fail?
80
It looks absolutely exhausting, darling.
81
To manage to do something means to succeed at it, especially when it's not easy.
82
Like...
83
Remember how Gru was trying to prove how badass he was by stealing the moon?
84
Well, he actually managed to do it.
85
Although he didn't keep it for very long.
86
Check it out.
87
What happened, Gru?
88
All your dreams of becoming a famous villain?
89
They go poof poof, huh?
90
I don't know if you know, but I did manage to steal the moon.
91
Really?
92
You mean that moon?
93
And there was a great idiom she used without fail.
94
It means every single time, no exceptions.
95
Like, I read every evening without fail.
96
And you can practice your English speaking every single day without fail in the Real Life English Speaking Club.
97
Now, Mother Gothel will repeat this next phrase a few times.
98
Oh, darling, I'm just teasing.
99
What do you think tease means?
100
When I'm teasing my daughter, I make fun of her in a playful way. For example,
101
I might call her a sleepyhead when she sleeps for too long
102
or a silly forgetter when she forgets to do something I ask her to do.
103
But watch Mother Gothel closely.
104
Her teasing always goes just a little too far.
105
Don't you agree?
106
Well, Rapunzel tries to bring something up or mention it, but Mother Gothel finds a way to delay it.
107
Rapunzel, if mother's feeling a little run down, would you sing for me, dear?
108
Then we'll talk.
109
Run down means exhausted, like a nearly empty battery.
110
Natives have a few ways to say the same thing.
111
Wiped out, drained, or beat.
112
They all mean you have very little energy.
113
Check out these quick examples.
114
When you're feeling run down, you always got a shoulder to sit on.
115
I'm wiped out.
116
The heavy day, you know, I'm drained.
117
Ah, Pumper, I'm beat.
118
You go ahead, I'm calling it a day.
119
So, Rapunzel goes through her magic singing way too fast and then tries to tell her mother something important.
120
It's my birthday!
121
Ta -da!
122
No, no, no, can't be.
123
I distinctly remember.
124
Your birthday was last year.
125
To distinctly remember something is a collocation meaning to remember it clearly, with total certainty.
126
Without the word distinctly, the phrase I remember sounds neutral.
127
Let's compare how I could use it in a conversation with my daughter.
128
I remember telling you to clean your room.
129
I distinctly remember telling you to clean your room.
130
Distinctly makes the second sentence stronger.
131
And here's another mother -daughter situation.
132
Take my hand, honey.
133
I distinctly remember telling you to stay off this log.
134
What do I know?
135
I'm just your mother.
136
That's the funny thing about birthdays.
137
They're kind of an annual thing mother i'm turning 18.
138
annual means once a year you'll see it in phrases like annual report
139
or annual meeting
140
and turning a certain age is the most natural way to say your birthday is coming up
141
i'm turning 40 this year you can also say hitting she's hitting 27
142
this year same idea just more casual then mother gothel cuts her off again
143
so please stop with the mumbling you know how i feel about the mummy
144
when you speak too quietly and don't pronounce your words clearly you're mumbling
145
so it's hard for people to understand you people often mumble
146
when they're nervous just like rapunzel is right now now have you ever noticed
147
that you sometimes forget new words soon after learning them like
148
to manage to do something to distinctly remember to turn a certain age.
149
All these expressions are super useful and it's only natural
150
that our brains forget them because we don't have the habit of learning and practicing.
151
Learning and practicing.
152
That's why it's so important to review the vocabulary you are seeing today.
153
It's one of the best things you can do for your fluency.
154
And I know this not only from my own experience as an English learner, but also because we've taught millions of learners just like you.
155
And so we created the perfect solution for it.
156
A set of flashcards for this lesson with Tangled that is available for free on our app.
157
These will help you remember the new words forever.
158
It's really cool.
159
The app knows the exact expressions from the lessons you've watched and just when you're about to forget one,
160
we bring it back to you for practice.
161
All you need is 10 -15 minutes daily for more natural English speaking.
162
Super easy!
163
Just click the link in the description below to try the RealLife app right now for free.
164
and start getting a bit more fluid every day.
165
Now let's see what Rapunzel wishes for her birthday in the next part of the scene.
166
I want to see the floating lights!
167
What?
168
Oh, well I was hoping you would take me to see the floating lights.
169
Oh, you mean the stars.
170
That's the thing.
171
I've charted stars and they're always constant, but these?
172
They appear every year on my birthday, Mother.
173
Only on my birthday.
174
And I can't help but feel like they're...
175
They're meant for me.
176
I need to see them, Mother.
177
And not just from my window, in person.
178
I have to know what they are.
179
You want to go outside?
180
Why, Rapunzel?
181
Look at you as fragile as a flower.
182
Still a little sapling, just a sprout.
183
You know why we stay up in this tower.
184
I know, but...
185
That's right.
186
To keep you safe and sound, dear.
187
Guess I always knew this day was coming.
188
Knew that soon you'd want to leave the nest.
189
Soon, but not yet. But shh.
190
Trust me, pet.
191
Oops!
192
From now on, every time I want to say mother knows best to my daughter, I'll remember Mother Gothel and just keep it to myself.
193
to see the floating lights.
194
Usually, when we make a request, we start with, could you, to sound polite?
195
Could you take me to see the floating lights?
196
I was hoping is even softer because it makes your request more indirect and thoughtful.
197
Let's hear more examples.
198
We were hoping you could help us.
199
Well, I was hoping you could run a play for us.
200
Mother Gothel tries to dismiss the floating lights as just stars, but Rapunzel knows the difference.
201
That's the thing.
202
I've charted stars and they're always constant, but these, they appear every year on my birthday, mother.
203
To chart something means to carefully track and record it, often to understand where things are or how they change.
204
Sailors in the past used to chart the stars to help them navigate.
205
And did you know
206
that you can also chart your workouts check out this example
207
you have no idea how hard it is to make
208
it as a professional athlete do you every workout was charted every calorie was counted
209
and i can't help
210
but feel like they're they're meant for me can't help means you can't stop yourself from doing
211
or feeling something even if you want to can't help but has the same meaning with a slightly different structure.
212
Compare the two.
213
I can't help laughing.
214
I can't help but laugh.
215
Both mean you can't control it.
216
Meant for me means you feel that something is supposed to happen for you, like it's part of your destiny.
217
And a very common expression with a similar idea is meant to be.
218
For example, we were meant to be together.
219
But Mother Gothel isn't moved.
220
She closes the exit and starts talking down to Rapunzel.
221
Look at you, as fragile as a flower.
222
Still a little sapling, just a sprout.
223
Fragile means delicate and easily broken.
224
Something or someone that needs to be handled with care, like glassware.
225
That's why you might see fragile written on a delivery box if it contains something made of glass.
226
You may hear it pronounced fragile in American English and fragile in British English.
227
Let's hear the difference.
228
It's fragile.
229
It's fragile.
230
Now, what do you think sapling and sprout mean?
231
I'll give you a hint.
232
They have something to do with plants.
233
This is a sapling, a young tree that's still small and growing growing, and here's a sprout.
234
It's even smaller, the first little shoot that grows from a seed.
235
Mother Gothel uses these words to compare Rapunzel to a young plant that is still small and needs to be protected.
236
That's right, to keep you safe and sound, yeah.
237
Safe and sound means completely safe with nothing bad happening to you.
238
Sound here refers to being healthy and in good condition.
239
You may say, we made it home safe and sound.
240
We will now check a few quick examples and I want you to notice how it's pronounced in natural speech.
241
The end gets reduced to just N, so it comes out as safe and sound, safe and sound.
242
Check out the examples and try to say the phrase yourself.
243
Were you surprised to hear
244
Mother Gothel call her daughter a pet?
245
You probably know pet as an animal we keep at home, like a dog or a cat.
246
But pet can be a word of endearment, like deer or darling.
247
You may hear it in British English, especially in parts of Northern England.
248
So when Mother Gothel says, trust me, pet, she's using pet to sound warm and affectionate, even though, as we know, she's only pretending.
249
All right now, are you ready for the most important part of the lesson?
250
Let's test everything you've learned today, the new vocabulary and pronunciation, and put it into practice.
251
You'll watch the two clips again, this time without subtitles, and answer some quiz questions.
252
Let's do it!
253
I'm not getting any younger down here.
254
Coming, Mother.
255
Hi.
256
Welcome home, Mother.
257
Oh, Rapunzel, how you managed to do that every single day without fail.
258
If you managed to finish something, that suggests the task was done quickly, done even if it was difficult,
259
done with somebody else's help.
260
a very big look in
261
that mirror you know what I see I see a strong confident beautiful young lady oh look
262
you're here too I'm just teasing stop taking everything so seriously okay
263
so mother as I was saying tomorrow mother's feeling a little rundown
264
if someone is feeling a little rundown they most likely need more exercise,
265
rest and recovery or they need a little encouragement.
266
Would you sing for me dear?
267
Then we'll talk.
268
Oh of course mother!
269
If you distinctly remember something, you remember it because you wrote it down.
270
You remember it only vaguely or you remember it clearly with specific detail.
271
Your birthday was last year.
272
That's the funny thing about birthdays.
273
They're kind of an annual thing.
274
Mother, I'm turning 18, and I wanted to ask what I really want for this birthday.
275
Actually, what I wanted for a quite a few birthday.
276
Okay, okay, Rapunzel, please stop with the mumbling.
277
You know how I feel about the mumbling.
278
Blah, blah, blah, blah is very annoying.
279
I'm just teasing.
280
You're adorable.
281
I love you so much, darling.
282
I want to see the floating lights.
283
What?
284
Oh, well, I was hoping you would take me to see the floating lights.
285
Oh, you mean the stars.
286
That's the thing.
287
I've charted stars, and they're always constant.
288
But these, they appear every year on my birthday, Mother.
289
Only on my birthday.
290
And I can't help but feel like they're meant for me.
291
The sentence, I can't help but smile, means you choose not to smile.
292
You're trying to smile but not being able to.
293
You smile without being able to stop yourself.
294
I need to see them, mother.
295
And not just from my window, in person.
296
I have to know what they are.
297
You want to go outside?
298
Why, Rapunzel, look at you as fragile as a flower.
299
Still a little sapling, just a sprout.
300
You know why we stay up in this tower?
301
I know, but...
302
That's right.
303
To keep you safe and sound, dear.
304
Guess I always knew this day was coming.
305
Knew that soon you'd want to leave the mast.
306
Soon, but not yet.
307
But shh, trust me, pet, mother knows best.
308
Mother knows best, listen to your mother, it's a scary world out there.
309
And I can't help but smile when I think about how many new words you've learned today.

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.
