1
Today we're learning English with TED Talks.
2
One characteristic emerged as a significant predictor of success.
3
And it wasn't social intelligence.
4
It wasn't good looks.
5
physical health, and it wasn't IQ.
6
It was grit.
7
Grit is passion and perseverance for very long -term goals.
8
Grit is having stamina.
9
Grit is sticking with your future day in day out not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years.
10
and working really hard to make that future a reality.
11
Grit is living life like it's a marathon.
12
not a sprint you you.
13
An important part of being a successful language learner is having the right mindset.
14
And TED Talks can help you with that.
15
If you've never heard of TED Talks, they are fun, interesting, and as you saw in the preview, often inspiring speeches by professionals.
16
They are also a great way of improving your listening skills and vocabulary.
17
In today's lesson, we'll look at three examples of TED Talks that can help develop your mindset to advance your English.
18
But before Before we get started, if this is your first time here, welcome.
19
Each week we help millions of learners like you understand fast speaking English, without getting lost, without missing the jokes, and without needing subtitles.
20
So join our community of over 5 million learners by hitting
21
that subscribe button and bell down below so you never miss out on any of our new lessons.
22
One of the first
23
and most important steps to being a successful English speaker is understanding why you're learning English in the first place.
24
In this popular TED talk, author and inspirational speaker Simon Sinek explains the power of knowing your why.
25
By why I mean what's your purpose, what's your cause, what's your belief?
26
Why does your organization exist?
27
Why do you get out of bed in the morning?
28
And why should anyone care?
29
Well, as a result, the way we think, the way we act, the way we communicate, is from the outside in.
30
It's obvious.
31
We go from the clearest thing to the fuzziest thing.
32
Let me give you an example.
33
I use Apple because they're easy to understand and everybody gets it.
34
If Apple were like everyone else, A marketing message from them might sound like this: We make great computers.
35
They're beautifully designed.
36
Simple to use and user friendly.
37
Want to buy one?
38
Meh.
39
But it's uninspiring.
40
Here's how Apple actually communicates.
41
Everything we do We believe in challenging the status quo, We believe in thinking differently.
42
The way we challenge the status quo is by making our products beautifully designed, simple to use and user friendly.
43
We just happen to make great computers.
44
Want to buy one?
45
Totally different, right?
46
Be ready to buy a computer from me.
47
Why does your organization exist?
48
Why do you get out of bed in the morning?
49
Although Simon Sinek uses Apple as an example, this applies to individuals as well.
50
When we understand why we do anything, our purpose becomes clear and we can more easily work towards it.
51
Here, when we talk about what gets you out of bed in the morning, it means what is your purpose and motivation in life.
52
What motivates you to go to work each day?
53
An expression that sounds similar
54
but has a totally different meaning is to wake up on the right
55
or wrong side of the bed which is used for saying that someone is in a good or bad mood.
56
For example, He seems very grumpy today.
57
It seems he woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
58
So what's something you do every morning without fail?
59
Oh, unfortunately I check my phone.
60
Same here.
61
Yeah.
62
What gets you out of bed?
63
My dog, Noon.
64
Cute.
65
and the clearest thing to the fuzziest thing.
66
In this context, when we refer to an idea or concept as fuzzy, we mean that it is still unclear or undeveloped as you haven't yet given it enough thought.
67
For example, he wants to start his own business, but his business plan is still a bit fuzzy.
68
Which of these pictures also represents the meaning of fuzzy?
69
Bye.
70
What?
71
The slippers and rabbit are fuzzy because they are covered with short soft fur and in English we call this fuzzy.
72
The display screen is fuzzy because the image is not clear, making it difficult to see.
73
Ew!
74
Oh!
75
Ew!
76
Gross!
77
Idiot!
78
Stupid little fuzzy yellow creature!
79
Oh look at me, I'm so cute, I'm a little chick who's disgusting!
80
Do you want to be able to watch absolutely any movie or TV series without needing subtitles?
81
If understanding the jokes, culture, and every word is important to you,
82

84
They're beautifully designed, simple to use and user -friendly.
85
This is a word that you might hear related to software and technology.
86
You can use the word user -friendly to describe something that is simple or easy for people to use or learn.
87
My new computer came with Windows 7.
88
Windows 7 is much more user -friendly than Windows Vista.
89
I don't like that.
90
Everything we do...
91
We believe in challenging the status quo,
92
The word "status quo" is a Latin phrase that is still used today mostly in formal or academic situations.
93
However, it's perfectly normal to use it in everyday conversations.
94
We use it to mean the present situation or the way things usually are.
95
Louis said I'm not allowed to prioritize your work anymore.
96
You think I'm taking orders from Louis now?
97
Consider things status quo.
98
Yeah, well, they aren't.
99
They are, as far as you and I are concerned.
100
We just happen to make great computers.
101
we use the phrase "happen to" Plus, verb to say that something happened by chance or without preparation.
102
For example, he happens to be best friends with his boss's daughter.
103
Hi, Isaac.
104
Isaac.
105
Hi.
106
You know, we haven't actually met.
107
Your dog.
108
Yes, I suppose I am a dog.
109
But Isaac, see, I happen to have a girlfriend.
110
Oh, right, that Rachel chick from the coffee place.
111
Yeah, that's the one.
112
We just happen to make great computers.
113
Want to buy one?
114
Notice how Simon uses connected speech here.
115
Instead of asking "want to buy one", the words "want" and "to" flow into each other.
116
So the "t" sound at the end of "want" and at the beginning of "to" are silent.
117
So all we hear is "wanna".
118
Together this sounds like Wanna buy one?
119
Want to buy one?
120
The next step is to accept the fact that mistakes and vulnerability are part of learning a new language.
121
In this powerful TED Talk, Brene Brown talks about the power of vulnerability, or more simply put, the power of embracing possible mistakes
122
and failure the one thing that keeps us out of connection is our fear that we're not worthy of connection.
123
I took all of the interviews where I saw worthiness, where I saw people living that way, and just looked at those.
124
what they had in common.
125
was a sense of courage.
126
And so these folks had very simply the courage to be imperfect.
127
They had the compassion to be kind to themselves first and then to others.
128
The other thing that they had in common they fully embraced vulnerability.
129
They talked about the willingness to say I love you first.
130
the willingness to Thank you.
131
do something where there are no guarantees.
132
you The one thing that keeps us out of connection is our fear that we're not worthy of connection.
133
The word "worthy" has several meanings.
134
In this context, it means that someone deserves respect admiration or support.
135
You must be so proud to have him as your brother.
136
Well, truth be told, he does bring me a lot of joy.
137
Thank you for telling me this, Charlie.
138
You're welcome.
139
Just promise me you won't embarrass him by bringing it up.
140
Not a word.
141
I just hope I can be worthy of him.
142
As a suffix, at the end of a word, it can also mean suitable or deserving.
143
For example, road plus the suffix worthy makes roadworthy.
144
which means that something, usually a vehicle, is suitable to be used on the road.
145
Trust plus the suffix worthy makes trustworthy, which means that someone can be trusted.
146
For example, He is a very trustworthy employee.
147
what they had in common.
148
was a sense of courage.
149
And so these folks had very simply the courage to be imperfect.
150
We say that people have something in common when they share similar interests or characteristics.
151
He obviously went crazy.
152
You obviously lost his mind.
153
I didn't lose my mind.
154
Okay, Janice and I have a lot in common.
155
We've both been divorced.
156
We both have kids.
157
The word 'folks' can be used in different ways.
158
We use it to refer to people in general.
159
For example, folks need to realize that global warming is a reality.
160
We use it to refer to people of a particular group.
161
That area is very popular amongst rich folks.
162
"Fox" also refers to your parents.
163
I'm going home over Thanksgiving to see my folks.
164
You can say, folks, if you want to speak in a friendly way to people you don't know, for example.
165
to be kind to themselves first.
166
and into others.
167
Compassion is a positive word that refers to a strong feeling of sympathy
168
and sadness for the suffering or bad luck of others and a wish to help them.
169
The other thing that they had in common they fully embraced vulnerability.
170
In this situation, embrace is a synonym for accepting something.
171
"I think it's great that you're going on a date, you know?
172
I mean, it sounds healthy.
173
I mean, you have needs.
174
Embrace your womanhood." However, to embrace can also mean to hold someone tightly with both arms to express love.
175
liking or sympathy, or when greeting or leaving someone.
176
For example, the boy embraced his mother to show his gratitude.
177
They talked about the willingness to say I love you first.
178
The noun willingness means that the person is ready and voluntarily wants to do something.
179
You could also change the sentence structure slightly by using the adjective "willing".
180
So instead of They talked about the willingness to say, "I love you" first.
181
You could say: They talked about being willing to say I love you first as they have the same meaning.
182
Thank you all for assembling at such short notice.
183
And I want to thank you for your willingness to serve.
184
One of the main reasons many learners study English is that it is a global language.
185
In order to truly become a global citizen, we need to be open to understanding the world from different perspectives.
186
In this TED Talk, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie explains why this is important.
187
Thank you.
188
Years later, I thought about this when I left Nigeria to go to university.
189
in the United States.
190
I was 19.
191
My American roommate was shocked by me.
192
She asked where I had learned to speak English so well, and was confused when I said that Nigeria happened to have English as its official language.
193
She asked if she could listen to what she called my tribal music.
194
and was consequently very disappointed when I produced my tape of Mariah Carey.
195
- My roommate had a single story of Africa a single story of catastrophe.
196
In this single story, there was no possibility of Africans being similar to her in any way.
197
No possibility of feelings more complex than pity.
198
No possibility of a connection as human equals.
199
So that is how to create a single story.
200
Show a people as one thing, as only one thing, over and over again, And that is what they become.
201
"She asked if she could listen to what she called my tribal music." Here,
202
tribal music refers to the music created by indigenous people of a particular area who belong to a specific tribe.
203
It is music that is special and symbolic of the culture.
204
I was consequently very disappointed when I produced my tape of Mariah Carey.
205
The word 'consequently' is often used in writing and means the same as 'therefore' or 'as a result of something'.
206
Last year, you bet me that you could steal my Medal of Valor.
207
And you did.
208
Consequently, I was forced to do your paperwork for a week, And to say words I thought I'd never have to say.
209
I was consequently very disappointed when I produced my tape of Mariah Carey.
210
When she refers to her tape, she means a cassette tape, which is a flat, rectangular object used for playing and recording audio.
211
Cassette tapes were popular in the 1980s and 90s.
212
For dinner music, I thought we could listen to that tape that you made me.
213
Oh, the mixtape!
214
This is quite humorous because she is saying that the music
215
that is symbolic of her culture or tribe is from international superstar Mariah Carey.
216
My roommate had a single story of Africa.
217
The word 'single' means one, so when she talks about a single story, she means that her roommate only understood one part of the story,
218
or she only had limited information about Africa, and this became how she viewed the entire continent.
219
We use the word catastrophe to refer to a bad situation or an event that causes very great trouble or destruction.
220
Show a people as one thing.
221
When we talk about a people, It might sound incorrect, but in fact it refers to a nation,
222
a tribe, a community that is regarded as a single unit.
223
So that brings this lesson to an end.
224
Before you go, let's do a quick quiz to see how much you've learned.
225
But it's uninspiring.
226
Here's how Apple actually communicates.
227
Everything we do We believe in challenging the status quo, we believe in thinking differently.
228
The way we challenge the status quo is by making our products beautifully designed, simple to use and user -friendly.
229
We just happened to make great computers.
230
Want to buy one?
231
Totally different, right?
232
You ready to buy a computer from me?
233
What is the opposite of status quo?
234
unusual, regular, Atypical.
235
They had the compassion to be kind to themselves first, and then to others.
236
The other thing that they had in common they fully embraced vulnerability.
237
They talked about the willingness to say I love you first.
238
the willingness to Okay.
239
do something where there are no guarantees.
240
Which of these pictures shows the verb embrace?
241
Bye.
242
Bye.
243
Bye.
244
you Years later, I thought about this when I left Nigeria to go to university.
245
in the United States.
246
I was 19.
247
My American roommate was shocked by me.
248
She asked, where I had learned to speak English so well, and was confused when I said that Nigeria happened to have English as its official language.
249
She asked if she could listen to what she called my tribal music.
250
and was consequently very disappointed when I produced my tape of Mariah Carey.
251
LAUGHTER Which of these means the same as consequently?
252
vulnerability, Why
253
therefore?
254
Hey, real lifers.
255
So I just got to work and I was about to start my tasks when I realized I haven't signed in yet.
256
So to sign in means to insert a username and password in order to gain access to a device.
257
such as your computer or your phone.
258
You could also use the word login.
259
So sign in and login have the same meaning.
260
Now that I've organized my tasks, I'm going to start working on an urgent project that my boss assigned to me.

Dicas de Prática para Este Vídeo
Para aplicar a técnica de shadowing com este vídeo, escolha um segmento curto e ouça atentamente. O orador fala de forma clara e com um sotaque relativamente neutro, o que facilita a prática. Tente acompanhar a fala com suas próprias palavras, sincronizando sua pronúncia e entonação. Preste atenção ao ritmo—o falante utiliza pausas estratégicas que podem ajudar na assimilação. Como o tema envolve mentalidade e emoções, você pode achar algumas partes mais difíceis; não hesite em repetir frases até que você se sinta confortável. Essa prática de inglês oral será fundamental para o seu desenvolvimento na prova IELTS speaking e ajudará a promover sua fluência em inglês.
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | are covered · be told · can be trusted |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | you've never heard · haven't actually met · you've learned |
| Orações relativas who / which + oração — informação extra sobre uma pessoa ou coisa | bed which is · trustworthy, which means · tape, which is |
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
