1
If you want to be good at English, don't go to school.
2
I know that's a big thing to say, but I went to school and studied Spanish for five years.
3
But the most useful words I ever learned, I learned them out here.
4
Not in the classroom, not in a textbook, out here.
5
Everything you can see is a word.
6
This is a coconut on a plate with a straw.
7
We're on the coastline, it's summer, and today I'm going to show you seven words that will help you sound like a native speaker.
8
And along the way, I'm going to show you everything around us.
9
So you're not just learning the words, but you're seeing them in real life.
10
None of this is in a textbook.
11
Textbooks teach you, I would like to order a coffee, please.
12
But here's what I would say more naturally.
13
Could I have one coconut coffee and one salted coffee, please?
14
Thank you.
15
So that's how to order.
16
But if we're talking to our friends, then we might say, shall we get a drink?
17
Do you fancy an iced coffee?
18
or let's grab a coffee.
19
In fact, the word grab alone deserves its own lesson.
20
Schools might teach you to buy, to take, to have, but grab is super common in spoken English.
21
For example, we grab a seat.
22
We grab the menu.
23
And now I'm going to go grab a drink.
24
All right, I just grabbed the two coffees and now let's learn some English using the world around us.
25
So this is a salted coffee in a glass and it has a straw and a spoon.
26
There is salted cream on top of the coffee.
27
In here we have the condiments, the sauces.
28
This is a squeezy bottle of ketchup because you can squeeze it.
29
This is a bottle of soy sauce and at the top this is the lid.
30
The lid.
31
A knife, a fork and a spoon are called cutlery.
32
These are the chopsticks.
33
And finally, to dab your mouth, this is a napkin.
34
From here in my seat, you can also see a parasol.
35
These are parasols that shade you from the sun.
36
These are sun loungers, and they are on the sand.
37
In the distance, that line that you can see between the ocean and the sky is called the horizon.
38
You can learn all of these words in a textbook but the problem is you're just reading words on a page and repeating them.
39
The best way to make the language stick is to hear it in context and see it at the same time.
40
Your visual memory is strong.
41
You know that this is a glass.
42
This is the best way to learn English.
43
It's immersion and it helps the words to stick.
44
If you want a platform to immerse yourself in natural native English, then check out sproutlanguage.com.
45
Pop.
46
Pop is one of the most British verbs to exist, and you won't find it in textbooks.
47
It means to go somewhere quickly or casually.
48
Should we pop to the pool?
49
Nice pool.
50
Okay, now I'm gonna pop to the loo.
51
I'll see you in two.
52
Oh, by the way, the loo is the toilet in British English.
53
Now let's pop out for a walk.
54
Now we are taking a stroll, a gentle walk,
55
not a fast walk but a stroll and to my right this is a fence
56
these are bougainvillea which I taught in the last video and this is a coconut tree.
57
Now coming down from the bougainvillea.
58
These are called leaves.
59
And the cool thing about leaves...
60
Hey!
61
Get off my leaves!
62
Whoops.
63
Sorry, tree.
64
That is not cool, man!
65
Anyway, I'm bored.
66
Do you fancy going for a walk?
67
Nah, I don't really fancy it right now.
68
It's too hot.
69
Fair enough.
70
Fair enough.
71
If someone says something and you say, fair enough, it means that I see a point, I accept it, I'm not going to argue.
72
We can also say fair dues or fares.
73
These are also very common in British English and fair enough is one of the most used two-word expressions in British English and they do not teach that in textbooks, my friends.
74
Okay guys, this is a wooden sign and it says Anbang Seastar Boutique.
75
Boutique refers to a boutique hotel which is like a small fashionable hotel that is not part of a larger chain
76
this is a light bulb and it's reminded me of a fun fact these plants are
77
called ferns and they are ancient prehistoric survivors in fact these ferns are a
78
hundred million years older than the dinosaurs they are 360 million years old
79
that's ancient i wonder if the dinosaurs ever knew what bunting was probably not but now you do this is bunting and we hang it up when we are celebrating
80
so i'm walking past an abandoned area an area that has been left and this is an old
81
motorbike it's out of use and the metal is rusty it's decaying the color of the
82
motorbike's body is turquoise the same color that you find in the ocean when the water is nice and light blue it's turquoise this is turquoise let's keep going jay what's the next language point
83
hmm this lantern is kind of blue
84
sort of purple and these flowers it's kind of reddish pinkish
85
I just used kind of, sort of and ish.
86
This is known as vague language and native speakers like me use it all the time.
87
Hey Jay, what time is it?
88
It's about eleven-ish.
89
OK, cheers.
90
I just said 11ish.
91
That means around 11.
92
And British people use ish all the time when it comes to telling the time.
93
It's 11ish, it's 12ish, it means it's around that time.
94
But now, my favourite way to use the word ish is...
95
Moreish.
96
This banh mi is really moreish.
97
In school you probably learned, oh it's delicious or it's yummy.
98
But a more natural way to describe that you like to eat something and you want more of it is to use the word moreish.
99
This banh mi is really moreish.
100
I want more of it.
101
Other things that are moorish are peanuts, crisps and chocolates.
102
It means that you want to consume more of them.
103
A drink can also be moorish.
104
Speaking of moorish...
105
Mmm, that is moorish.
106
Mmm, lovely.
107
Lovely jubbly.
108
Lovely.
109
The next and probably the most British word.
110
It's one that I use all the time.
111
The weather is lovely.
112
The coffee is lovely.
113
This pool is lovely.
114
I just met somebody yesterday and she was lovely.
115
We can use the word lovely to talk about food, weather, people, places or moments.
116
And if If you add it into your English vocabulary today, right now, then I promise you, you will sound so native.
117
Lovely jubbly.
118
Hey Jay, what's the plan for this evening?
119
Hey Peach, I reckon we should go grab some dinner and then come back home for an early night.
120
I reckon.
121
I just use the words I reckon.
122
I reckon you might not know what those mean.
123
In school, you might have learned I think.
124
But in England and in Britain, we tend to use the words I reckon.
125
And it's more casual and more of a gut feeling for what you think.
126
I reckon it will be useful.
127
Hey, Peach, what do you reckon we eat tonight?
128
Ooh, I reckon we should try that little place by the river.
129
The one with the lanterns outside?
130
Yeah, I reckon it'll be rammed though.
131
Yeah, I reckon you're right.
132
We should still try though, I reckon.
133
I reckon that's a word that will help you sound a lot more native.
134
I reckon.
135
Now, here's a test for what we learned today.
136
Can you understand this?
137
I reckon the best way to sound like a native is to speak like a native.
138
So pop over

Vamos explorar como o ambiente à sua volta pode enriquecer seu vocabulário e melhorar a sua pronúncia em inglês. Você irá aprender a usar expressões mais naturais e comuns em conversas, em vez de apenas as que estão nos livros didáticos. Vamos abordar desde como pedir um café de forma casual até expressões que fazem parte da cultura do dia a dia.

Vocabulário e Frases Chave

  • Grab: um verbo que significa pegar algo de maneira casual, como em "Let's grab a coffee."

Dicas de Prática

Para realmente absorver o que aprendeu, experimente o shadowspeak. Assista ao vídeo e, em seguida, repita as frases em voz alta ao mesmo tempo que o falante. Preste atenção à entonação e ao ritmo da fala. O objetivo é imitar não apenas as palavras, mas também a maneira como elas fluem em uma conversação natural. Dica: como o vídeo tem um tom descontraído, utilize pausas e espaços para criar sua própria interpretação. Isso não apenas ajuda a melhorar a pronúncia em inglês, mas também a praticar sua conversação em inglês de maneira mais eficaz. Tente descrever o que está vendo ao seu redor, usando as palavras aprendidas. Essa prática de conversação em inglês em contextos reais vai ajudar seu cérebro a fazer conexões mais fortes, facilitando a memorização de novas palavras.

Usar o shadow speech em ambientes naturais, como durante suas interações cotidianas, pode acelerar seu aprendizado. Experimente incorporar os novos vocábulos e expressões enquanto se comunica com amigos ou familiares que falam inglês. Ao fazer isso, você não só melhora sua fluência, mas também se diverte enquanto aprende inglês com YouTube e outras mídias. Lembre-se: a prática leva à perfeição!

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.
