1
We'll be back with our art challenge a little later
2
but first of all let's go through all of that with our English language expert Rob from the British Council.
3
Hi Rob.
4
Hi Ashley.
5
Oh dear Stephen has a lot to learn about art.
6
I know he really did think that rubbish bin was a piece of art.
7
Well it isn't always easy to tell what art is is it?
8
No. Anyway after watching that I've got a question for you.
9
Go on.
10
Do you know what an article is?
11
Yeah it is something you read in a newspaper paper or a magazine?
12
Well yes it is but for people who are learning English articles are a,
13
an and the and it can be very difficult to learn how to use them properly.
14
Really?
15
They're just little words like this is a pen.
16
Okay but is it a pen or the pen?
17
Let's have a look at some examples.
18
We're at an art market.
19
It's a kind of market where artists sell their art.
20
I'm going to make some art come back to the market and sell it.
21
Brilliant idea, huh?
22
So the first time you said we're at an art market.
23
It's an and not a because art starts with a vowel sound
24
and it's also an because the person you're speaking to doesn't know which art market it is.
25
There are lots of art markets and this is just one of them, an art market.
26
But the second time was different.
27
Watch again.
28
I'm going to make some art, come back to the market and sell it.
29
Now, the second time, you said you were going to come back to the market.
30
Why the market and not a market?
31
Because it's the art market.
32
It's obvious.
33
Yeah, that's right.
34
When we all know which art market or which thing we're talking about, we use the.
35
It doesn't sound too difficult to me, Rob.
36
Well, it is difficult because some languages don't have any articles.
37
Really?
38
Yes, Russian, for example, doesn't have any articles in the way English has.
39
Ah, okay.
40
That's strange.
41
And there are some special rules too, like we say the sun and the moon, but not the Mars.
42
Okay, I see.
43
It's a bit complicated, isn't it?
44
It is, but I always tell my students just to remember three golden rules.
45
Let's watch.
46
Yeah, excellent idea.
47
Except one thing, you're not an artist.
48
Rule number one.
49
When you say your job, always use an article, a or an.
50
So I'm a teacher, you're an actress, and that's why Stephen said you're not an artist.
51
Here's rule number two.
52
We're at an art market.
53
Sounds like a challenge.
54
And the winner gets to keep all the money we make agree.
55
We're at an art market.
56
Sounds like a challenge.
57
The winner gets all the money.
58
When you have a singular noun, art market, challenge, winner, it always has an article.
59
It can be a, an, or the, but a singular noun always has an article.
60
Or it has a determiner, like his or her or my, like this.
61
Ashley wants to buy some art for her fat.
62
Her flat.
63
And here's rule number three.
64
Art is all about ideas.
65
It's a kind of market where artists sell their art.
66
When we talk about things in general, we don't use an article.
67
So, art is about ideas, not the art, because it's art in general.
68
So we say cats like mice, Not the cats like the mice because we're talking about all cats and all mice.
69
That's why you said it's a market where artists sell their art.
70
Not the artists because it's all artists.
71
Artists in general.
72
See what I mean?
73
I guess so.
74
It's trickier than I thought.
75
It is, but those three rules will help you avoid the most common mistakes.
76
And you've just said the other thing
77
that i want to have a look at typical ash you
78
choose the biggest thing in the market for your tiny flat
79
well yeah i guess it is a bit too big what
80
do you think stephen i guess he's trying to make us think about the modern world i guess you
81
and stephen use it quite a lot i guess it's a
82
bit too big i guess he's trying to make us think
83
so what does i guess mean um i think i guess i I mean,
84
it means I'm not sure, but I think, right?
85
Perfect.
86
I'm not sure, but I think.
87
I guess.
88
And I guess that's all we have time for.
89
Ah, you're right, Rob.
90
But thanks again, and we'll be speaking to you a bit later.

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.
