1
In today's video we will be cafe hopping and learning English
2
and at the end of the video I'm gonna share my favorite word with you.
3
I also have a very special gift so watch until the end.
4
Now I'll put down my broly and what better way to begin a rainy day than...
5
Right guys, we have our goodies, our sweet treats.
6
I have ordered a muffin and it's double chocolate, so there is chocolate inside.
7
Chang has a mug full of hot chocolates with a teaspoon to mix it.
8
The mug comes on a saucer.
9
The saucer is like the home for the mug.
10
And I have obviously a very little child's drink.
11
I've got a triple chocolate cookie milkshake because it's Saturday and it's raining outside.
12
I want to have a good time.
13
This is going to make me feel sick and I can't wait.
14
It comes on a coaster.
15
The coaster is this thing.
16
We have already bought our chocolate from downstairs.
17
We tried the little pieces of chocolate, the tasters or the testers,
18
and we were sold, meaning that we wanted to buy them as soon as we tasted it.
19
So we have an assortment of chocolates in here.
20
I am untying the ribbon,
21
sliding off the cover, flipping up the lid,
22
and you can see these are candied mandarins and coated in dark chocolate.
23
This is another box of chocolates, and these are white chocolates with roasted cashew and raisins.
24
A raisin is a dried grape.
25
Cacao beans.
26
Which again is the bean that we make chocolate from.
27
So I'm taking out a bean from the jar and firstly taking off the skin,
28
the outside of the cacao bean and it's got a very interesting texture it's quite crumbly I'm gonna eat it
29
next we're going to do something
30
that all humans love people watching in order to people watch we need to change the lens
31
so we're going to change this lens so we can people watch from the balcony
32
changing lens in one two three magic let's go people watch
33
so i am stepping out onto the balcony i am on the balcony looking down to the world below
34
and over here we have a woman in a non-lar carrying two fruit baskets let's get a better visual
35
This woman is walking down the alley carrying two fruit baskets on her shoulder.
36
She is wearing a raincoat or a poncho.
37
She's just disappeared.
38
Down below, there are people with umbrellas.
39
The man on the left has a navy umbrella and the woman behind him has a white umbrella.
40
Across the street there is a man wheeling two suitcases.
41
An orange suitcase and a pink suitcase.
42
Here there is a person putting on a black helmet.
43
On this street there is lots of traffic.
44
Traffic is things like cars and motorbikes.
45
You can also have foot traffic, which refers to pedestrians a pedestrian is somebody who is walking
46
there are three pedestrians crossing the road they're holding a green umbrella
47
and a blue umbrella this thing to stop us from falling off the balcony is called a railing a railing
48
We used to have these at school.
49
We used to look out to the people outside.
50
And at the top, this is the handrail.
51
All right, guys, it's still raining, so let's put up the umbrella.
52
Oh, the broly.
53
Oh, the broly, as we say in British slang.
54
And let's cross the road.
55
Let's walk across the road.
56
Look both ways.
57
right and left.
58
However this is a one-way roads, a one-way system.
59
That means the cars are only moving one way so I only have to look right.
60
Can't go yet, waiting at the side of the road, at the side of the road.
61
Now is the moment.
62
Let's cross.
63
So we are crossing the road and we are doing so diagonally.
64
So guys I have not had a coffee yet.
65
I've not been caffeinated.
66
Next stop is a coffee shop.
67
I've not been to this place but I've heard good things
68
so we're gonna walk to the coffee shop now get some caffeine in our veins and relax.
69
Okay so Chang is about to cross at the zebra crossing
70
Chang is crossing at the zebra crossing and the green man is flashing.
71
Now we have the red man.
72
That means that you can't go.
73
But to my right there is a spa.
74
A spa is where you get a massage.
75
Here we have a restaurant with the sign outside.
76
Here is the menu which you flick through if you want to order food.
77
And here is a shop window.
78
In the shop window you have mannequins.
79
A mannequin is like a model that doesn't move.
80
This is a mannequin wearing a straw hat and a Hawaiian shirt.
81
That should get me a Hawaiian shirt.
82
Behind me is a pharmacy.
83
You can see the flashing lights and in the UK it's common for us to call a pharmacy a chemist.
84
I'm off to the chemist means I'm going to the pharmacy.
85
We can use them interchangeably.
86
And Chang has spotted a shop full of bags.
87
Bags, bags, bags galore.
88
Many, many bags.
89
Cute, apparently.
90
So right now it's drizzling.
91
Light rain, we say drizzling or spitting.
92
So let me take a seat on this bench to talk about British weather.
93
In Britain, it's very commonly rainy.
94
It doesn't pour it down, it doesn't throw it down, but it always drizzles it always spits usually the weather is gray and miserable
95
today the weather is great and miserable but we are feeling sunny inside
96
so we have a clothing store to the left there are
97
some bags they are being displayed in the window we say
98
they are on display there are three bags on display here are some more mannequins wearing a cardigan.
99
This is a cardigan, which is like a jumper with buttons.

109
It smells of flowers, of course.
110
So this is a bistro.
111
They are playing jazz music again.
112
A bistro is like a relaxed restaurant.
113
Casual food, chill vibes.
114
Let's go inside.
115

130
We're relaxing.
131
And this place is gorgeous.
132
It is beautiful.
133
So, let's learn some new words.
134
There are three books and a lamp resting on the table.
135
On the spine of the book, the word time is written.
136
This is a handmade chandelier.
137
Flowers and test tubes.
138
Very inventive.
139
A strange blonde man is in the garden pretending to eat fake lemons.
140
This is the stage.
141
It's where performing artists play music.
142
On the stage there are large speakers.
143
We call these amplifiers, or for short, amps.
144
The lampshade is multicolored.
145
There are different flowers for decoration.
146
From the ceiling hangs a chandelier.
147
Outside the rain is falling.
148
You can see the raindrops creating mini ripples.
149
Jazz music plays in the Bose speakers.
150
Two waitresses are carrying its haven.
151
Another waitress carries two chairs.
152
The food has arrived.
153
Two bowls of hot soup.
154
Perfect for soothing a cold rainy day.
155
One thing that I love to do is to read.
156
I am a voracious reader.
157
I read voraciously, and that means I read a lot.
158
I'm hungry for knowledge.
159
Now here I have two different types of books.
160
In my left hand is a Kindle, digital, and in my right back, in my right hand is a paperback book.
161
Let's compare the two.
162
The Kindle is light, it's digital, and it has a screen.
163
As I swipe, it turns the page.
164
I can also tap and it turns the page.
165
On the Kindle, I can adjust the brightness.
166
It can be very bright or very dim.
167
Dim is the opposite of bright.
168
With the paperback book, this is different.
169
It's the physical thing. And...
170
I like it because it smells...
171
Woody.
172
It has that certain book smell.
173
I think that this is the reason a lot of people like the paperback books.
174
You would flick through the paperback book, and you can also hear the sound of the pages flicking.
175
When I open the book and find a page that I want to stay on or remember,
176
I can dog ear the page.
177
I am dog earing the page.
178
I just dog eared the page.
179
So, I'm going When I close the book and then open it again,
180
I can find the same page because of this little dog ear.
181
So, this book is called Winnie the Pooh.
182
Winnie the Pooh is a fiction book and it's my favourite book from when I was a child, from when I was very young.
183
My grandma used to read me this book in bed bed and it gives me a very fond happy memory.
184
If you're watching grandma, love you lots.
185
This is such a happy book for me and such a happy memory
186
and there's actually something within this book that I want to show you.
187
How sweet to be a cloud floating in the blue.
188
Every little cloud always sings aloud.
189
How sweet to be a cloud floating in the blue.
190
It makes him very proud to be a little cloud.
191
Here I have highlighted this line.
192
The bees were still buzzing as suspiciously as ever.
193
Buzzing is the sound that bees make.
194
Buzzing is also a British slang word, and buzzing means very excited, and it's the final word of the day.

Por que praticar a fala com este vídeo?
Este vídeo oferece uma maneira única e divertida de praticar a conversação em inglês, aproveitando uma experiência sensorial enquanto aprendemos sobre o cotidiano em um café. O contexto de "cafe hopping" não só mantém o conteúdo leve e interessante, mas também permite que você ouça a fala natural e fluida do apresentador. Ouvir um nativo descrevendo suas experiências, desde a escolha de sobremesas até a observação de pessoas na rua, fornece um rico contexto linguístico que é fundamental para a prática de conversação em inglês. Além disso, o uso de expressões coloquiais e descrições vívidas ajuda você a se familiarizar com a comunicação cotidiana, essencial para se tornar mais confiante em suas habilidades de fala.
Gramática e expressões em contexto
No vídeo, o apresentador utiliza várias estruturas gramaticais e expressões que são muito comuns no inglês falado. Aqui estão algumas delas:
- “I have ordered...” - A estrutura do passado simples usada para descrever ações recentes que foram concluídas é comum em relatos pessoais.
- “We were sold...” - Esta expressão idiomática significa que alguém foi convencido a comprar algo após experimentá-lo, uma frase útil para descrever decisões de compra.
- “Let’s go...” - Usado para motivar e expressar entusiasmo, essa construção é prática para encorajar ação em conversas.
- “People watching” - Uma expressão que se refere à prática de observar as pessoas em público, ajudando a entender como descrever atividades e interações sociais.
Essas estruturas são fundamentais para a sua prática de conversação em inglês, pois permitem que você participe de diálogos informais com facilidade.
Armadilhas comuns de pronúncia
Ao assistir ao vídeo, é possível encontrar algumas palavras e expressões que podem ser desafiadoras para a pronúncia. Aqui estão algumas armadilhas comuns:
- “Mug” - A pronúncia deve ser clara, já que pode ser confundida com "mugshot" ou outras palavras similares. Pratique a distinção do som.
- “Saucer” - A vogal inicial pode ser desafiadora; foque em articular o som corretamente.
- “Pedestrian” - Essa palavra, que frequentemente aparece em contextos urbanos, pode ser difícil pela combinação de sílabas. Exercite a pronúncia devagar e com clareza.
Esses pontos de pronúncia são vitais para o seu desenvolvimento na prática de shadow speech, ajudando a evitar confusões que podem ocorrer em conversas reais. Adicionalmente, investir tempo em shadowing pode aumentar sua fluência e capacidade de se expressar de forma natural.
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.
