Hello, everyone, and welcome back to English Cozy Chat,
2
where we have easy chats about all kinds of fun topics.
3
Today, we are going to talk about meals.
4
Do you know all of the names of the meals in English.
5
We will talk about each meal,
6
what it's called, different kinds of foods that people like to eat for each meal,
7
and also example conversations about each meal.
8
By the end of the episode, you will know how to talk about meals in English.
9
The first meal of the day is called breakfast.
10
For me, breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
11
I cannot function in the day if I don't eat a good breakfast.
12
Breakfast is what people typically eat in the morning before they go to work or school or even if they stay home,
13
it is the first meal that they eat.
14
There are lots of people that don't like eating breakfast and that are not hungry in the morning.
15
I am definitely not one of those people.
16
Breakfast is what people eat after they wake up.
17
Some common foods to eat for breakfast are bread or toast,
18
cereal, eggs, pancakes, French toast, bacon, sausage, yogurt.
19
some people like to eat a lighter breakfast such as yogurt and other people like to eat a much heavier breakfast.
20
For example eggs with bacon and sausage.
21
In the UK they are known for having English breakfast,
22
which is a very heavy breakfast, which has eggs, sausage, baked beans,
23
and it is really delicious, but I've had it a few times,
24
and afterwards I just want to go to sleep.
25
It's really hard for me to eat too much of a heavy breakfast in the morning because afterwards I'm just too tired.
26
I personally love to eat cereal.
27
I eat oats with nuts and flax seeds and chia seeds and fresh fruit and soy milk.
28
This is the breakfast that I have been eating almost every day for years now and it never fails.
29
If I don't eat this breakfast,
30
I swear I feel kind of weird the rest of the day.
31
Another part of breakfast which is very important for lots of people is coffee or tea.
32
Some people like to drink coffee or tea before they eat breakfast and some people like to drink it after.
33
Some people also drink coffee or tea all day long.
34
Though some typical questions that you would say for breakfast is if you are asking someone what they eat for breakfast,
35
you would simply say, What do you eat for breakfast?
36
Or, What do you like to eat for breakfast?
37
You could even say, do you prefer eating eggs or cereal for breakfast?
38
So let's try a sample conversation.
39
Good morning.
40
Have you had breakfast yet?
41
Yes, I did.
42
I ate eggs and toast.
43
Oh, really?
44
All I had was a banana and some tea.
45
The second meal of the day is lunch.
46
Lunch is usually eaten between 12 and 2 p.m.
47
In the United States, it is typically eaten earlier between 12 and 1 p.m at the latest,
48
and in Spain it is eaten much later.
49
It is very normal to even eat lunch around 2 or 3 p.m.
50
Some common foods to eat for lunch are sandwiches,
51
soup, salad, pasta, rice, or some kind of light protein such as beans,
52
beans, tofu if you are plant-based, also fish, chicken, things like that.
53
Some example phrases that you can say to explain what you eat for lunch is,
54
I eat a sandwich and a salad for lunch, or I usually have a salad for lunch.
55
I personally love to eat salads for lunch.
56
I have a way of throwing together a very quick salad with whatever I have in my fridge.
57
I like to eat it with some kind of lettuce or spinach,
58
grated carrot, tomato, beans, and some kind of plant protein,
59
usually tofu or seitan.
60
I love making a dressing which is with hummus, balsamic vinegar, and mustard.
61
It is really nice and creamy and the salad that I make always fills me up and makes me feel so good.
62
Some people think of salads as something extremely light,
63
such as only lettuce and tomato.
64
But when I make salads, they are very filling.
65
Some useful questions regarding lunch is, what do you eat for lunch?
66
Or, do you want to have lunch together?
67
And now for the mini conversation.
68
I am so hungry.
69
Let's go have some lunch.
70
Perfect.
71
I think I will make a sandwich for lunch.
72
That sounds good, but I think I'll have soup for lunch.
73
One interesting thing about lunch in Spain versus the U.S is in Spain lunch is the biggest meal of the day typically.
74
In the U.S and in the UK dinner is the largest meal of the day.
75
The last main meal of the day is dinner.
76
Dinner is typically eaten in the evening.
77
In the U.S it's eaten usually between 6 and 7 p.m.
78
And in Spain, it's eaten more around 8 to 9 p.m.
79
In the U.S., people typically eat heavier foods for dinner,
80
such as pasta, meat or fish, stews, potatoes.
81
any kind of heavier food is more typical to eat for dinner.
82
But there are also people who like to eat lighter foods for dinner.
83
It just depends on your preferences.
84
My number one favorite food to eat for dinner is pasta.
85
I love pasta because it can be made all kinds of ways and for me it just tastes delicious every time.
86
I also really love to eat soups and stews for dinner.
87
Here are some example sentences for dinner.
88
I have dinner at 7 p.m every evening.
89
Tonight we're having pasta for dinner.
90
Or do you want to have dinner together.
91
And now for the mini conversation.
92
I'm so tired and hungry after this long day.
93
What's for dinner tonight?
94
I'm making lentil soup with roasted vegetables for dinner.
95
That sounds delicious.
96
Now, I could not talk about food and meals without talking about snacks.
97
I love snacks.
98
If people do eat snacks,
99
they typically eat them between breakfast and lunch and also between lunch and dinner.
100
Some common snack foods are nuts,
101
fruit, hummus, crackers,
102
yogurt, or maybe even cookies or chips if you like to eat sweet or salty food during your snack times.
103
Now for our example sentences.
104
I'm hungry.
105
I need a snack.
106
I'd like to eat fruit and nuts as snack.
107
Now for a mini conversation.
108
Do you want a snack?
109
Yeah, sure.
110
I'll have an apple.
111
I hope you liked all the mini conversations.
112
So now it's time to practice.
113
Try to answer these questions in English.
114
What do you eat for breakfast?
115
What do you usually have for lunch?
116

Over deze les
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.
