Hello, everyone, and welcome back to English Cozy Chat,
2
a slow English podcast which helps you to learn English in a fun and natural way.
3
I am Maria, and it's Monday,
4
and I definitely have a Monday feel today.
5
In English, sometimes we say, I have a case of the Mondays,
6
which simply just means you're really tired from the weekend
7
and it's getting hard to get your week started sometimes on Mondays I feel really energized
8
and motivated to start the week but other times I just feel really tired
9
and it's really hard for me to get going
10
so I have the most important thing that you need to have on a Monday
11
some coffee this is my favorite coffee cup in spanish it says tu puedes con todo it is la bomba
12
and in english that means you can do it you are the bomb
13
and it shows a little picture of a bomb and I think that's just so cute.
14
So cheers to that.
15
And today I thought that I would just talk a little bit about my weekend.
16
My husband and I live far away from our families.
17
My family lives in the United States and his family lives in Germany and I live in Spain.
18
This coffee cup is a little bit hot.
19
I'm just gonna put it down.
20
So my mother -in -law came to visit us.
21
And mother -in -law means the mother of your spouse's.
22
A spouse is your husband or wife.
23
So it's your husband or wife's mother.
24
And a father -in -law is your husband or wife's father
25
so my mother -in -law came to visit us from Germany
26
and she was here for one week she came on last Monday
27
and she just left this morning so over the weekend we had a few fun things planned when she was here.
28
I always have a really good time when she's here.
29
I really enjoy having her around.
30
She's a really big help.
31
And it's just really nice for us to have family come visit since we live so far from all of our family.
32
So on Friday afternoon, she came with me to pick up my girls from school.
33
And then we ate a snack,
34
got dressed, and got ready to go to a dance show.
35
There was a dance performance in the middle of our town from a local dance school,
36
and our plan was to go and watch the show.
37
I was so excited about it because I love dance.
38
I love to dance and I also love watching dance
39
so we went there and parked the car
40
and walked to the place where the show was supposed to be
41
and it was absolutely empty and then I looked at the tickets for the show and I had gotten the date wrong.
42
It was actually the next day.
43
So I made all of us get ready and go to this show when really There was no show that night.
44
I felt really embarrassed and bad for doing that.
45
But my mother -in -law thought it was actually kind of funny.
46
And instead, we went to a plaza nearby and just had something to drink and enjoyed the atmosphere.
47
Here in Spain there are many plazas where there are also parks for children and restaurants right next to them.
48
So it's a really great place for people to go and sit,
49
eat something, drink something, and the kids can also play and have a good time.
50
And in general, it's just really fun,
51
and it's a nice atmosphere so we did
52
that on Friday instead of going to the dance show
53
and it ended up being really fun so it kind of worked out
54
that we went on the wrong day because we ended up having a really good time anyway.
55
Then on Saturday we had a really nice day at home.
56
My mother -in -law is a very good cook
57
and she makes a delicious chicken soup
58
and she spent the whole day cooking this chicken soup which she is famous for.
59
It's a really long recipe,
60
which takes lots of time and has lots of steps.
61
So she spent the whole day cooking it.
62
And I really loved this because I love to cook myself,
63
but I also really love to watch others cook
64
and see how they do things and techniques
65
that they use to get lots of flavor out of food
66
so on saturday i wrote her recipe
67
down on a piece of paper
68
and it actually felt really good to just sit sit
69
and write I really liked this feeling and I realized I never just sit and write
70
a lot maybe I write a to -do list or one or two words to remind myself of something or
71
a short note to leave for someone,
72
but I usually never write a full page of handwritten notes.
73
I know that may sound weird.
74
I don't know if you guys ever write, but am I the only one that feels like this?
75
Anyway, it felt really good to just take a pen
76
and write down lots of notes on paper and to write down her entire recipe.
77
I usually don't cook recipes that take a long time to make.
78
I usually try to make things quickly.
79
However, I do try to make food as flavorful as possible.
80
That is very important to me.
81
But I usually don't spend a lot of time.
82
cooking.
83
So it was fun for me to see how she did it.
84
And I'm going to try to do it kind of in
85
my own way to see how maybe I can make the process a little bit easier
86
and keep the same delicious flavor that it always has.
87
So that night we actually did go to the dance show and it really was on Saturday night.
88
So we watched it and I absolutely loved it.
89
I love watching dance.
90
And in this show, there were many different kinds of dance.
91
There was ballet, jazz, contemporary,
92
and some of the dances were just really good.
93
And it's been a long time since I've watched really good dancing.
94
So that was a really nice experience.
95
It was in a garden area that is in town
96
and it had twinkling lights everywhere and it was just decorated really nice.
97
And overall, it was just a really nice experience.
98
And then when we came home, we ate the chicken soup that she spent all day cooking.
99
And it was absolutely delicious this soup has chicken
100
and vegetables and noodles and just the flavor of the broth itself
101
which is the liquid in the soup is so flavorful
102
and delicious that I don't want to stop eating this soup when I eat it.
103
Then on Sunday, we went to a nice restaurant for lunch.
104
This was really nice because we have been trying to not go out
105
and eat as much and just eat at home more,
106
but this was a special occasion having her here so we went to a nice restaurant and had a really good lunch.
107
Sometimes it's just really fun to put on nice clothes
108
and get out of the house and be in a nice restaurant atmosphere,
109
especially if you don't do it that often, it makes it extra special.
110
So then when we came home from the lunch,
111
I watched a movie with my husband and my kids.
112
And the movie is called Coco.
113
It is a Disney animated movie.
114
And wow, this movie is so good.
115
My husband and I were both crying at the end.
116
Not a sad cry.
117
It was a happy cry because this movie has a really beautiful story and the ending is just really sweet.
118
I think it is my favorite Disney movie.
119
It's definitely my favorite Disney movie right now, and it may be one of my favorite movies.
120
I really love watching movies with my kids because they're really good for adults to watch too.
121
They're not just for kids.
122
I enjoy them just as much as they do.
123
Then for dinner we were still so full after eating this really big lunch
124
but we ate just a little bit of soup and then we went to bed.
125
Sometimes having a really long lunch in the middle of the day also just makes me really tired.
126
So that was it for my weekend.
127
It was really fun.
128
I did some different things and it was also kind of relaxing.
129
What did you do this weekend?
130
I would love to hear.
131
Please let me know in the comments and I can't wait to see you in the next episode.
132
Bye!

Para quem é esse vídeo?
Esse vídeo é perfeito para aprendizes de inglês intermediários ou até mesmo iniciantes com um pouco de base, que querem praticar a compreensão de fala natural e melhorar sua conversação. A linguagem é lenta, cotidiana e repleta de expressões usadas no dia a dia, ideal para quem busca se sentir mais confortável em situações reais, como contar sobre o fim de semana ou conversar sobre rotinas. Se seu objetivo é treinar prática de conversação em inglês de forma relaxada, esse conteúdo é uma ótima escolha.
Palavras e expressões para roubar (e usar!)
No vídeo, Maria usa várias expressões que valem a pena anotar. Confira:
- "I have a case of the Mondays": Significa sentir-se cansado ou sem energia no início da semana, devido ao fim de semana. Exemplo: "Today I can't focus—definitely have a case of the Mondays!"
- "Spouse": Palavra formal para marido ou esposa. Útil em contextos mais educados.
- "Get going": Expressão coloquial para "começar a se mover" ou "começar a fazer algo". Exemplo: "I need coffee to get going in the morning."
- "Atmosphere": Refere-se ao "ambiente" ou "vibe" de um lugar. Exemplo: "The plaza has a really nice atmosphere in the evening."
Como acertar o sotaque nesse vídeo
Maria fala com uma pronúncia clara e ritmo moderado, o que facilita o shadow speech (técnica de repetir a fala imediatamente após o falante). Para melhorar, preste atenção nas sílabas destacadas em palavras como "embarrassed" (aên-ba-ras-sed) e "absolutely" (ab-so-lu-tly). Observe também a entonação nas frases interrogativas, como "Did I get the date wrong?"—a voz sobe no final. Use um shadowing site para gravar sua própria voz e comparar com a dela, ou pratique o shadow speak repetindo frases como "Cheers to that" ou "She's a really big help" para capturar o fluxo natural da fala. Essas dicas vão te ajudar a falar com mais fluência e confiança!
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | was just decorated · is called |
| Verbo + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — verbos seguidos da forma em -ing | enjoy having · love watching · stop eating |
| Possibilidade com “might / may” might/may + verbo — algo possível, mas não certo | may sound · may be |
| Futuro com “going to” be going to + verbo — um plano ou algo que dá para prever | gonna put · I'm going to try |
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.
