And today we have a super fun and helpful topic for all our English learners out there.

We're going to talk about something we all do every single day, our daily routine.

Oh, I love this topic.

It's so practical and full of everyday English.

16

17
Your support means the world to us.
18
So for today's episode, we have a special guest.
19
Well, not a real guest,
20
but we're going to listen to the story of someone named Sarah.
21
She's going to tell us all about her daily routine.
22
Ooh, I'm excited.
23
We'll listen to Sarah's story,
24
and then Emily and I will chat about it,
25
breaking down some of the English she uses and giving you some extra tips.
26
Exactly.
27
It'll be a relaxed chat,
28
almost like we're just talking about our day.
29
So, without further ado, let's listen to Sarah's daily routine.
30
Hi everyone, my name is Sarah,
31
and I'm happy to share my daily routine with you.
32
I usually get up at around 6 more in the morning.
33
The first thing I do is turn off my alarm,
34
and then I stretch in bed for a few minutes.
35
After that, I get out of bed and go to the bathroom to have a shower.
36
After my shower, I dry myself and get dressed.
37
I usually choose comfortable clothes for the day.
38
Then, I go downstairs to the kitchen and make breakfast.
39
I usually have a bowl of oatmeal with fruit and a cup of tea.
40
While I eat breakfast, I often read the news on my phone.
41
After breakfast, I wash the dishes and tidy up the kitchen.
42
Then, I brush my teeth and put on a little makeup.
43
Around 7.30 a.m., I leave the house to go to work.
44
I usually take the bus,
45
which takes about 30 minutes.
46
I arrive at work at 8 a.m and start working immediately.
47
I usually work on my computer and attend meetings throughout the morning.
48
Around 12 o'clock, I have lunch with my colleagues in the cafeteria.
49
We usually chat and relax during our lunch break.
50
After lunch, I go back to work and continue my tasks until 5 o'clock.
51
When I finish work, I go back home by bus.
52
Sometimes, if the weather is nice, I walk home.
53
When I get home, I usually feel tired,
54
so I relax on the sofa for a while.
55
Sometimes, my friend comes over and we talk or watch a movie
56
Other times I cook dinner for myself I like to eat dinner around 7.30pm After dinner,
57
I usually wash the dishes again and then I might read a book or watch some TV Before bed,
58
I always brush my teeth again and get ready for bed I usually go to bed around 10 or 10.30pm
59
That's pretty much my daily routine.
60
Wow, that was Sarah's day.
61
What a routine.
62
Yeah, that's a busy day.
63
I liked how she started,
64
Hi everyone, my name is Sarah,
65
and I'm happy to share my daily routine with you.
66
It's a nice simple way to introduce yourself and what you're going to talk about.
67
Very clear.
68
Absolutely.
69
And then she immediately jumps into the morning,
70
saying, I usually get up at around 6 in the morning.
71
This phrase, get up, is super common for waking up and getting out of bed.
72
We use it all the time.
73
Right.
74
And notice she says, at around six.
75
That around is useful.
76
It means not exactly six,
77
maybe five minutes before or five minutes after.
78
It's an approximation.
79
Good word to know.
80
Yes, and what's the very first thing she does?
81
The first thing I do is turn off my alarm.
82
Ah, the alarm clock.
83
That's a universal experience, isn't it?
84
Turn off means to make it stop,
85
like turning off the light.
86
Yep, that noisy alarm.
87
And then she says, and then I stretch in bed for a few minutes.
88
Oh, I love that.
89
Stretching is great.
90
Stretch means to extend your body, make it long.
91
It feels good.
92
Mmm, yes, it does.
93
And then, after that, I get out of bed.
94
So, get up is waking up,
95
and get out of bed is physically leaving the bed.
96
Two different but related actions.
97
Exactly.
98
And she goes to the bathroom to have a shower.
99
We say have a shower or take a shower.
100
Both are correct and very common.
101
Okay, so after her shower,
102
Sarah says, I dry myself and get dressed.
103
So dry myself means to use a towel, right?
104
And get dressed is to put on clothes.
105
Simple, but important actions.
106
Yeah.
107
And she says, I usually choose comfortable clothes for the day.
108
Good choice, Sarah.
109
Comfort is key.
110
Choose means to pick, to select,
111
and comfortable means feeling good, not tight, not itchy.
112
Definitely.
113
Then I go downstairs to the kitchen and make breakfast.
114
Go downstairs means going to a lower floor in a house,
115
and make breakfast is to prepare food for breakfast for breakfast.
116
You can also say, cook breakfast or prepare breakfast.
117
Oh, and her breakfast.
118
I usually have a bowl of oatmeal with fruit and a cup of tea.
119
Mmm, sounds healthy.
120
Have here means to eat or drink.
121
So you can have breakfast, have lunch, have dinner.
122
And a bowl of oatmeal.
123
Oatmeal is a type of hot cereal made from oats,
124
Very common breakfast food.
125
Yes, very common.
126
And while I eat breakfast,
127
I often read the news on my phone.
128
While means at the same time.
129
So eating and reading the news simultaneously.
130
And on my phone.
131
We often say on for electronic devices when we're using them for information.
132
Like on the internet, on my computer.
133
After breakfast, she says, I wash the dishes and tidy up the kitchen.
134
Important chores.
135
Wash the dishes is to clean the plates, cups, and forks.
136
And tidy up means to make a place neat and organized,
137
like putting things back in their place.
138
Yes, tidy up is a great phrase.
139
You can tidy up a room, tidy up your desk.
140
Then I brush my teeth and put on a little makeup.
141
Brush my teeth is for oral hygiene, very important.
142
And put on makeup means to apply cosmetics to your face.
143
Right.
144
And then, around 7.30, I leave the house to go to work.
145
So, leave the house is to exit your home.
146
And to go to work is her destination.
147
And how does she get there?
148
I usually take the bus,
149
which takes about 30 minutes.
150
So, take the bus means to use the bus as transport.
151
And, takes about 30 minutes tells us the duration of the trip.
152
Takes here is about time.
153
That's a good point, Paul.
154
We often use take when talking about how long something lasts.
155
For example, the movie takes two hours.
156
So, Sarah arrives at work.
157
I arrive at work at 8 and start working immediately.
158
Arrive at means to reach a place.
159
And start working immediately means she begins her tasks right away with no delay.
160
Wow, she's very prompt.
161
She is.
162
And she says, I usually work on my computer and attend meetings throughout the morning.
163
So work on my computer means she uses her computer for work tasks.
164
And attend meetings means to go to and participate in meetings.
165
Throughout the morning means all during the morning, from beginning to end.
166
Good phrase, throughout.
167
And then around 12, I have lunch with my colleagues in the cafeteria.
168
Again, have lunch, meaning to eat lunch.
169
And colleagues are people you work with, your co-workers.
170
And a cafeteria is a place where you can buy and eat food.
171
usually in a workplace or school.
172
Yes.
173
And what do they do during lunch?
174
We usually chat and relax during our lunch break.
175
Chat means to talk in a friendly, informal way.
176
And relax means to rest and feel calm.
177
A lunch break is a period of time during the workday when you stop working to eat lunch.
178
After lunch, I go back to work and continue my tasks until 5.
179
go back to work means she returns to her job
180
and continue my tasks means she keeps doing her work responsibilities tasks are duties
181
or pieces of work that need to be done and then
182
when I finish work I go back home by bus finish work means to complete your work for the day
183
and go back home is to return to your house.
184
She still takes the bus.
185
Yes, but then she says,
186
Sometimes, if the weather is nice, I walk home.
187
Ah, a little change of pace.
188
If the weather is nice means if it's sunny and pleasant outside.
189
And walk home means she goes home on foot, not by bus.
190
That's a great option if the weather is good.
191
I like that.
192
So, when I get home,
193
I usually feel tired, tired,
194
so I relax on the sofa for a while.
195
Ooh, I can relate to that.
196
Get home means to arrive at her house.
197
And feel tired is how she feels — sleepy, without energy.
198
So she relax on the sofa,
199
she rests on the couch.
200
For a while means for a short period of time.
201
Yep, that's me, after work.
202
And then she has some social time.
203
Sometimes my friend comes over and we talk or watch a movie.
204
Comes over means a friend visits her at her house.
205
And talk or watch a movie are common activities with friends.
206
Yes, very nice.
207
And other times, I cook dinner for myself.
208
So, cook dinner means to prepare the evening meal.
209
And for myself means she cooks only for her, no one else.
210
She likes to eat dinner around 7.30.
211
Again, around for an approximate time.
212
After dinner, I usually wash the dishes again.
213
Ah, yes, the dishes again.
214
And then I might read a book or watch some TV.
215
Might here means maybe.
216
It's a possibility.
217
So she might do one or the other or both.
218
Yes, might is a good word for possibilities.
219
And before bed, I always brush my teeth again and get ready for bed.
220
So another brushing of the teeth.
221
Good dental hygiene, Sarah.
222
And get ready for bed means to prepare to go to sleep,
223
like putting on pajamas.
224
And finally, I usually go to bed around 10 or 10.30.
225
Go to bed means to go to sleep.
226
And she gives a range of times, 10 or 10.30.
227
And then, that's pretty much my daily routine.
228
Pretty much means almost, mostly.
229
So that covers most of her typical day.
230
What a great summary of a day.
231
Sarah's routine is so clear,
232
and she used so many common English phrases we use every single day.
233
Agreed.
234
It's fantastic for learners because it's a real-life example.
235
We heard so many verbs related to actions.
236
Get up, turn off, stretch,
237
get out of bed, have a shower,
238
dry myself, get dressed, go downstairs,
239
make breakfast, wash the dishes,
240
tidy up, brush my teeth,
241
put on makeup,
242
leave the house take the bus arrive at work start working
243

244

245

Por que praticar a conversação com este vídeo?
Este vídeo é uma excelente oportunidade para praticar a conversação em inglês, especialmente no contexto de uma rotina diária, que é uma parte essencial da vida de todos. Ao ouvir Sarah compartilhar seu dia a dia, você pode se familiarizar com expressões comuns e estruturas que são frequentemente usadas no inglês falado. A prática através do shadowing em inglês – que envolve ouvir e repetir o que você escuta – é uma técnica eficaz para melhorar a sua fluência. Ao mimetizar o ritmo e a entonação, você não apenas aprende novas palavras, mas também ganha confiança ao falar.
Gramática e expressões em contexto
No relato de Sarah, várias estruturas gramaticais e expressões se destacam:
- Present Simple: Sarah usa o presente simples para descrever suas atividades diárias, como “I usually get up” (Eu costumo levantar). Esta é uma estrutura básica e crucial para descrever rotinas e hábitos.
- Sequência de ações: A frase “I get out of bed and go to the bathroom” (Eu saio da cama e vou ao banheiro) exemplifica como conectar ações em sequência, algo que é fundamental para descrever eventos em inglês.
- Expressões de tempo: Sarah diz “around 6 in the morning” (por volta de 6 da manhã), ajudando a definir claramente o tempo em que as ações ocorrem. Usar expressões temporais é vital para tornar a conversa mais fluente e compreensível.
- Verbos habituais: O uso de “usually,” “often,” e “sometimes” (geralmente, frequentemente, às vezes) também é importante para expressar frequência, permitindo que você compartilhe suas próprias rotinas de maneira eficaz.
Armadilhas comuns de pronúncia
Ao praticar seu shadow speak com este vídeo, é importante estar atento a algumas armadilhas de pronúncia:
- “Oatmeal”: Este termo pode ser difícil para acabantes, por conta do som "oa" que pode ser confuso. Pratique dizendo a palavra lentament.
- “Breakfast”: Muitas vezes, a pronúncia dessa palavra pode ser rápida. Tente separá-la em sílabas: “break-fast”.
- Entonação: Preste atenção na entonação utilizada por Sarah, especialmente em frases descritivas. A entonação é fundamental para transmitir emoção e fazer o discurso soar natural.
Ao se concentrar nessas armadilhas e usar técnicas de melhorar a pronúncia em inglês através de shadowspeaks, você estará no caminho certo para se tornar um falante mais confiável.
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.
