Criando lição...
1
Hello?
2
Hi, I live in the flat just below you.
3
I don't think we've met.
4
No, well, I've just moved in.
5
Actually, I've...
6
I just locked my keys in my flat.
7
You want me to buzz you in?
8
Yeah, and can I use your balcony?
9
What?
10
I'm sure Sherlock Holmes needs no introduction.
11
But can you guess how many movies and series have been based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's stories.
12
There are over 250 adaptations in movies and TV series, making Sherlock Holmes one of the most portrayed characters in history.
13
Unlike previous versions, the series starring Benedict Cumberbatch is set in the 21st century,
14
where Sherlock uses modern technology like smartphones and GPS to solve crimes.
15
The two words from the short clip you just saw are included in the flashcards deck for this lesson.
16
They are moving.
17
and buzz someone in.
18
If you'd like to learn the meanings of these and other words we'll cover today,
19
I invite you to download the RealLife English app using the link in the description below.

23
To help you understand your favorite movies and TV series, without getting lost.
24
without missing the jokes and without subtitles.
25
So let's explore advanced British vocabulary, and cultural nuances while sharpening your English comprehension, and critical thinking.
26
just like the world's most famous detective.
27
- Do you think he'd lost a lot of money?
28
I mean, suicide is pretty common among city boys.
29
We don't know that it was suicide.
30
Come on.
31
The door was locked from the inside.
32
You had to climb down the balcony. Been away three days.
33
Judging by the laundry.
34
Okay.
35
Look at the case.
36
There was something tightly packed inside it.
37
Thanks, I'll take your word for it.
38
Problem?
39
I'm not desperate to root around some blokes dirty underwear.
40
Those symbols at the bank, the graffiti, why were they put there?
41
- Some sort of code?
42
- Obviously.
43
Maybe they painted.
44
If you want to communicate, why not use email?
45
Well, maybe he wasn't answering.
46
Oh, good you follow.
47
Nope.
48
What kind of a mess would everyone try to avoid?
49
What about this morning?
50
There's less as you were looking at.
51
Bills?
52
- Oh.
53
Yes.
54
He was being threatened.
55
- I'm on a gas board.
56
- See if you can get prints off this glass.
57
Ah, Sergeant, we haven't met.
58
Yeah, I know who you are, and I'd prefer it if you didn't tamper with any of the evidence.
59
Okay.
60
I phoned Estrade, is he on his way?
61
He's busy, I'm in charge.
62
And it's not Sergeant, it's Detective Inspector.
63
Dimuk.
64
In this context, a city refers to the financial district of London, also known as the city.
65
City boys is a slang word for men who work in finance often seen as wealthy and under pressure.
66
stereotype of high stress in the financial industry, which sometimes leads to mental health issues.
67
The door was locked from the inside, you had to climb down the balcony.
68
Been away three days.
69
judging by the laundry.
70
Thank you.
71
Look at the case.
72
There was something tightly packed inside it.
73
Thanks, I'll take your word for it.
74
Problem?
75
The phrase "judging by" means you're making a guess or assumption based on something you can see or notice.
76
So, Sherlock makes an educated guess about how long the person
77
has been away by looking at the dirty clothes in his suitcase.
78
A common collocation for this phrase would be "judging by the look" on one's face or by one's expression, like it was used in this clip.
79
expression.
80
Your business doesn't seem to be prospering.
81
Look at the case, there was something tightly packed inside it.
82
Thanks, I'll take your word for it.
83
If you believe what someone is saying and you don't need any proof or checking it yourself, you take the award for it.
84
Watson trusts Sherlock's observation without needing to check it himself.
85
Like in this clip, Hugh Grant's character knows there are dozens of journalists outside their house and he says: Don't go outside.
86
Just believe me.
87
I wouldn't go outside.
88
Why not?
89
Just take my blood for it.
90
Oh.
91
And I can tell you, don't take my word for it when I say
92
that the RealLife English app is the best app for English learners you can find today.
93
Check it out yourself.
94
The most common issue I had when I just started speaking English daily was constantly forgetting some words.
95
I knew I learned them, but I couldn't retrieve them from my memory when I needed them.
96
Would you believe me if I told you that if you spent just 10 -15 minutes a day working with the flashcards,
97
then these new words you learned today like judging by or moving they will stick with you forever.
98
That's all thanks to the Space Repetition software we built into our app.
99
Using flashcards, the system prompts you to retrieve words at specific intervals, helping you move them from your short -term into long -term memory,
100
so you won't forget them.
101
Along with the pronunciation and example sentences, you'll also find writing exercise to help you spell the words correctly.
102
And I can tell you, don't take my word for it when I say
103
that the RealLife English app is the best app for English learners you can find today.
104
Check it out yourself!
105
And by the way, now you can have one free deck for any lesson you choose.
106
Don't miss out on this opportunity!
107
and get started today.
108
Thanks, I'll take your word for it.
109
I'm not desperate to root around some blokes dirty underwear.
110
Root around is to search through something in a messy or casual way.
111
Watson says he doesn't want to search through someone's personal belongings.
112
He even says I'm not desperate, meaning he's not in that situation where he would have to root around some dirty underwear.
113
And I was like rooting around in your things and I found this and I thought, cool.
114
Hey, let us know in the comments if you want us to make a lesson with this movie.
115
It's just such a classic.
116
Anna, look, I'm a fairly level -headed bloke.
117
Not often.
118
in and out of Love. But, uh...
119
Can I just say no to you?
120
Kind request.
121
Leave it or not.
122
Those symbols at the bank, the graffiti, why were they put there?
123
Some sort of code?
124
Obviously.
125
Why were they painted?
126
If you want to communicate, why not use email?
127
Well, maybe you won't answer him.
128
Oh, could you follow?
129
Nope.
130
In this context, follow means to understand what someone is saying.
131
For example, if you want to check whether the person you are talking to understands you, you can ask: "Are you following what I'm saying?" Good.
132
Do you like ice cream?
133
I'm sorry, sir, I don't follow.
134
What about this morning?
135
As less as you will have given.
136
Bills?
137
Yes, he was being threatened.
138
Here, the word "bills" refers to the regular payments for services like electricity, gas, or water.
139
Common collocation would be to pay the bills, monthly bills, or utility bills.
140
When you are threatened, you are in danger of being hurt or harmed.
141
So, someone had warned the man that something bad would happen to him if he didn't do what they said.
142
him.
143
Remember the word "bills"?
144
So, the "gas board" refers to the companies
145
that supply gas in the UK and send you your monthly bills to pay for the service.
146
Sherlock means the threats were serious not just from a utility company demanding payment.
147
And a cultural note: mentioning a utility bill adds a touch of British humor,
148
showing the contrast between everyday problems like paying bills and life -threatening ones.
149
To tamper with something means to mess with it, often in a way that causes damage or changes the outcome.
150
In the scene, the detective is warning Sherlock not to touch the evidence at the crime scene.
151
"Peter, we tampered with the stability of space -time to resurrect countless
152
When you are on your way, you are currently coming or traveling to a place.
153
I was just there. May I join you? Of course.
154
He's busy.
155
I'm in charge.
156
Dymok says he's in charge, meaning he's the one responsible for the investigation at the crime scene.
157
And I'm in charge of checking how well you remember some of the expressions before we move on to the next scene.
158
So, are you ready for a short quiz?
159
what does it mean to root around you Oh To search through something.
160
And what does it mean if someone is asking you "Do you follow?" Amen.
161
Oh It means "Do you understand?" Good job!
162
And remember, if you want to remember these words tomorrow, and a week later, and then months later,
163
go to the RealLife English app and have a vocabulary practice session with all these words we covered today.
164
Your first deck of flashcards is always free.
165
Now let's watch the next scene.
166
Thank you.
167
We're obviously looking at a suicide.
168
That does seem the only explanation of all the facts.
169
Wrong.
170
It's one possible explanation of some of the facts.
171
You've got a solution that you like, but you're choosing to ignore anything you see that doesn't comply with it.
172
Like?
173
The wounds on the right side of his head. And?
174
Van Coombe is left -handed.
175
Quires quite a bit of contortion.
176
Left -handed?
177
I'm amazed you didn't notice.
178
All you have to do is look around this flat.
179
Coffee table on the left -hand side, coffee mug handle pointing to the left, power sockets, habitually used the ones on the left.
180
Pen and paper on the left -hand side of the phone
181
because he picked it up with his right and took down messages with his left.
182
You want me to go on?
183
No, I think you've covered.
184
I might as well.
185
I'm almost at the bottom of the list.
186
There's a knife on the breadboard with butter on the right side of the blade.
187
Because he used it with his left, it's highly unlikely that a left -handed man would shoot himself in the right side of his head.
188
here and murdered him only explanation of all the facts but the gun he was waiting for the killer It means threatened.
189
Max, you've got a solution that you like but you're choosing to ignore anything you see that doesn't comply with it.
190
If you follow the rule or do what is expected of you, then you comply with it.
191
You have to come with me.
192
I'm not going anywhere.
193
This is a court order, and if you don't comply with it, I'm afraid you may be in some trouble.
194
Max, you've got a solution that you like, but you're choosing to ignore anything you see that doesn't comply with it.
195
Like?
196
The wound's on the right side of his head.
197
Hand?
198
Van Coon was left -handed.
199
Requires quite a bit of contortion.
200
Contortion means twisting or bending in an unusual or difficult way.
201
Sherlock mentions
202
that it would take a lot of contortion for a left
203
-handed person to shoot themselves on the right side of the head, meaning it would be an awkward, unnatural position.
204
And by the way, if you've ever watched an acrobatic performance, this is also called a contortion,
205
when your body is so flexible that you can bend it in the most unnatural ways.
206
And the artist or performer is called a contortionist.
207
If you do something habitually, you do it regularly or as a habit.
208
Sherlock talks about how Van Koon habitually uses certain power sockets, meaning it was his normal routine to use those on the left side.
209
Do you want me to go on?
210
No, I think you've covered it.
211
I might as well, I'm almost at the bottom of the list.
212
"Might as well" is an interesting phrase, It is used when you're suggesting that it's better to do something often because there's just no good reason not to.
213
Sherlock says "I might as well continue listing details" meaning he's already started so he thinks he might as well finish.
214
You might want a couple examples with this phrase to learn how to use it in the context.
215
John, there's something...
216
I should say, I meant to say always and I never have.
217
Since it's unlikely we'll ever meet again, I might as well say it now.
218
- Sherlock is actually a girl's name.
219
- Yeah.
220
I saw it.
221
I'm gonna be stuck here in small length.
222
Might as well do something useful.
223
When something is very improbable, or probably won't happen, it is highly unlikely.
224
Sherlock says it's highly unlikely that a left -handed man would shoot himself on the right side of the head,
225
meaning it doesn't make sense or it's very unlikely.
226
There's a knife on the breadboard with butter on the right side of the blade.
227
Because he used it with his left, it's highly unlikely that a left -handed man would shoot himself in the right side of his head.
228
Conclusion: someone broke in here and murdered him.
229
Only explanation of all the facts.
230
Conclusion is the final decision or opinion you arrive at after thinking about something carefully.
231
A common collocation would be jump to a conclusion.
232
And should they happen to see the Duke of Edinburgh out and about with them, beautiful younger companion, it would be an irritation if they felt at liberty to jump to any wrong conclusions.
233
When you break in, you enter a place illegally, without permission, usually by force.
234
I hope you liked our today's lesson.

237
The door was locked from the inside.
238
You had to climb down the balcony. Been away three days.
239
Judging by the laundry.
240
Look at the case.
241
There was something tightly packed inside it.
242
Thanks, I'll take your word for it.
243
Problem?
244
If you take someone's word for it, you write down what they say, believe what they say, need to check if that's true.
245
I'm not desperate to root around some blokes dirty underwear.
246
Those symbols at the bank, the graffiti, why were they put there?
247
Some sort of code?
248
Obviously.
249
Why were they painted?
250
More to communicate, why not use email?
251
Well, maybe he wasn't answering.
252
How could you follow?
253
Nope.
254
So What does "follow" mean in these contexts?
255
It means "good you understand".
256
Ah, Sergeant, we haven't met.
257
Yeah, I know who you are, and I'd prefer it if you didn't tamper with any of the evidence.
258
- - Okay.
259
I phoned Estrade, is he on his way?
260
He's busy.
261
I'm in charge.
262
And it's not Sergeant, it's Detective Inspector.
263
Dimock.
264
Which word is the closest in meaning to the word temper, mess with, make fun of, analyze?
265
We're obviously looking at a suicide.
266
That does seem the only explanation of all the facts.
267
Ron.
268
It's one possible explanation of some of the facts.
269
You've got a solution that you like, but you're choosing to ignore anything you see that doesn't comply with it.
270
Like?
271
The wound's on the right side of his head.
272
Hand?
273
Van Coon was left -handed.
274

283
And here is another fun lesson for you to watch next.
284
I mean, to many Americans, it sounds so distinguished and, you know.
285
Oh no, it's awful.
286
When I come to America, I always feel really...
287
I hate my English accent because it sounds so kind of like I don't know, pretentious?
288
I don't know if that's the word, it sounds really kind of, I don't know.
289
So by the end of my stay here I kind of find that my English is kind of
290
edging towards American English accent.
291
No, what's pretentious is when people affect an English accent.
292
Yours is real.
293
You're allowed to have one.
294
There are people like Madonna, who like two years ago, started to be like, "Oh, hello, hello." "I'm just feeling, I'm excited to have it."

Business EnglishDaily ConversationHigh School Students
Sobre Esta Lição
Nesta lição, você terá a oportunidade de aprender inglês com o Sherlock, mergulhando na rica linguagem e na cultura britânica enquanto explora diálogos envolventes da famosa série. Enfatizaremos como usar a tecnologia moderna, como smartphones e GPS, para enriquecer a compreensão do inglês contemporâneo. Você praticará a escuta e a fala, o que contribuirá para melhorar a pronúncia em inglês e aumentar seu vocabulário. Prepare-se para se tornar mais confiante em manter conversas naturais e fluidas!
Vocabulário e Frases-Chave
- Moving – mudando-se
- Buzz someone in – deixar alguém entrar
- Locked from the inside – trancado por dentro
- Code – código
- Graffiti – grafite
- Suicide – suicídio
- Desperate – desesperado
- Communicate – comunicar
Dicas de Prática
Uma excelente maneira de solidificar o que você aprendeu é através do shadowing ou shadow speech. Para isso, escolha partes curtas do vídeo e ouça atentamente o tom e a velocidade dos diálogos. Tente repetir o que você ouviu imediatamente após escutá-lo, imitando a entonação e a ênfase dos falantes. Este método é ideal para aprender inglês com YouTube, pois você poderá ajustar a velocidade do vídeo, se necessário. Caso você sinta que a fala é rápida, considere usar um shadowing site que permita desacelerar o áudio. Quanto mais você praticar, mais natural será sua fala em inglês.
Preste atenção às expressões que você não conhece e anote-as para um estudo posterior. Pratique não apenas a fala, mas também a escrita e a compreensão auditiva por meio do material oferecido na lição. Esse enfoque abrangente ajudará a melhorar a pronúncia em inglês e o levará a se tornar um falante mais competente e confiante.
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | we've met · I've just moved · have been based |
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | have been based · is set · are included |
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.
