Prática de Shadowing: Why Are These Galah's Cracking Tinnies? | Does Dad Know It? Ep 4 - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo
Criando lição...
1
G'day, you mob.
2
Welcome to Aussie English.
3
I'm your host, Pete, and my objective here is to teach you guys the English spoken down under.
4
So whether you want to sound like a fair dinkum Aussie, or you just want to understand what the flippin' hell we're on about when we're having a yarn, you've come to the right place.
5
So sit back, grab a cuppa, and enjoy Aussie English.
6
Let's go.
7
Dad, how's it going?
8
Pete, hang on.
9
Oh, he's got to get a drink.
10
We're going to do the compulsory.
11
We're doing slang episodes first, Dad.
12
Diet Coke today.
13
I know, we're taking it easy.
14
I know, well, you've got to pick up the kids.
15
It's afternoon.
16
Yeah, yeah, true.
17
Okay, all right, so we're doing 10 more slang terms.
18
Oh, beauty.
19
Don't stop guessing it.
20
You're giving away the content.
21
That's actually the next episode.
22
All right, Galah.
23
Yeah, silly galah.
24
Yeah, flaming galah.
25
Is this one that you heard growing up?
26
Oh, yeah.
27
Yeah?
28
A lot. And used.
29
Was it used by everyone?
30
Yeah, pretty much.
31
Like older generation, younger ones?
32
Yeah, older.
33
Men, women?
34
As a kid, I didn't probably use it, but you just sort of pick it up because it was so common.
35
And so, yeah, a bit of background.
36
A galah is a small grey and pink cockatoo in Australia, a parrot.
37
and they have a tendency to feed by roadsides and they're not very good at taking off, so they get hit by cars a lot.
38
And so I think people always look at them as being a bit stupid.
39
They need a long runway.
40
Yeah, and they also have a reputation for being the clowns of the cockatoo world, them and Corellas.
41
Are we surprised they're all idiots?
42
Yeah, but the Galatas swing upside down on telephone lines and, you know, they're just silly.
43
I've seen Corellas definitely acting that way, acting a fool, being stupid a lot.
44
And there's always huge groups of them.
45
Yes.
46
And I think galahs, don't they mate for life?
47
Yeah, so you always see galahs in pairs.
48
They're such beautiful animals.
49
I'd love one as a pet if it had like maybe a tenth the longevity.
50
Yeah, the fact that you buy a pet in your 30s and it's going to outlive you.
51
Well, if you get it as a baby.
52
I saw a video the other day of someone with a cockatoo and he was like, he's 57.
53
And you're just like, Jesus Christ.
54
That's quite a commitment.
55
Back in eight.
56
I know, that's it.
57
I'll outlive you, mate.
58
All right, so galah.
59
What is a galah?
60
If you use it in terms of slang with a person.
61
It just means it's a stupid person.
62
Yeah, flaming galah.
63
It used to always be used on Home and Away by Alf.
64
Alf, yeah.
65
Obviously, he couldn't swear on it.
66
It was this G -rated TV show.
67
Yeah, family.
68
And he'd always be like his...
69
Primetime television.
70
His fury, he would always be angry at the kids.
71
He'd be, flaming galahs, flaming galahs, flaming mongrels.
72
Yeah, flaming galahs.
73
Yeah.
74
All right, so it's a polite version of calling someone an idiot effectively.
75
Yeah.
76
So how would you use it in a sentence?
77
Pete, stop being a galah.
78
Yeah, stop being a flaming galah.
79
I love adding flamin as well, you're flaming galah.
80
You obviously grew up in a period where watching Home and Away was a thing.
81
Yeah.
82
You had that collocation.
83
It wasn't just a galah.
84
It was a flaming galah.
85
Flaming galah.
86
Well, it's effectively the soft version of fucking idiot, right?
87
Yeah, exactly.
88
You can idiot.
89
You fucking idiot.
90
Flaming galah.
91
I think, too, if you use that on someone, even if you had an angry altercation, they would probably just laugh.
92
They'd just laugh at you.
93
Okay.
94
Whatever, mate. That was offensive.
95
All right, number two, crack a tinny.
96
We've just done that.
97
We have.
98
We just did.
99
Effectively.
100
Yeah, go back to the start of the episode.
101
I know, so that's to - You can't redo it.
102
Open a beer can.
103
Yeah, beer can.
104
I don't know if you'd use it for soft drink, would you?
105
And they're not made of tin anymore.
106
No, they haven't been made of tin.
107
In fact, they were never made of tin.
108
No, here we go.
109
Back in the olden days, cans, as in food cans,
110
used to be made of tin because tin was a bit cheaper and more easily obtainable than steel.
111
Did it react less as well?
112
And it reacts a lot less.
113
But then steel became just a common thing to be made.
114
Back in the sort of 19th, early 20th century, everything became made out of steel.
115
And so making tin cans were then made out of steel, which of course is a mixture of iron and carbon.
116
And now most cans for drinks are made out of aluminium.
117
But the whole idea of a tin or a tinny...
118
Tin can, I guess.
119
A tin can.
120
A tinny is a...
121
Well, it's two things.
122
One is it's usually a beer can, or it's a small fishing boat.
123
Yeah, okay.
124
A tinny, which were never made out of tin.
125
Wow, that's not important.
126
No, exactly.
127
It's become the way we refer to it.
128
so uh yeah to crack a tin he used to open a beer i love
129
that idea too the crack using it as a verb to
130
mean like crack it open to open a crack in the top crack is onomatopoeic yeah exactly it sounds like
131
that but it's funny
132
because you can crack the shits you can crack the sad
133
yeah crack the sads crack the shits you can crack a fat well at my age you probably can't
134
that was the slang term I'm sorry, guys, we're getting a bit silly.
135
Crack of fat.
136
We're not even drinking beer.
137
Crack of fat was a slang term I used in primary school for boys when they got erections or something.
138
You're joking about erections.
139
I don't think I've used that in 20 -something years.
140
How did that come to mind?
141
Well, we're talking about crack.
142
You just revert to primary school very quickly.
143
I was thinking, how do we use crack as a verb?
144
Because it's such an interesting...
145
What is crack of fat?
146
It doesn't make any sense.
147
It makes no sense whatsoever.
148
You definitely don't want to crack a fat.
149
No, exactly.
150
All right, anyway, number three, fair go.
151
Fair go.
152
Yeah, fair go.
153
Fair go is giving somebody a reasonable opportunity to complete a task.
154
So, yeah, a fair chance or opportunity, right?
155
Having a fair go.
156
So you can use it as a sort of noun phrase, but you could also use it as an expression, right?
157
Fair go, right?
158
Fair go.
159
Yeah, fair go means give me a chance.
160
Or give it a break.
161
Don't give me a hard time.
162
Yeah, exactly.
163
I guess what, yeah.
164
Dad, we were meant to be recording this episode at one.
165
You showed up at 1 .03.
166
Like, why did you have to be late?
167
Oh, fair you go.
168
Exactly.
169
1 .03.
170
Fair you go, mate.
171
Got all up in the traffic.
172
All the traffic between Ocean Grove and here.
173
Yeah, exactly.
174
Yeah, three cars.
175
Yeah.
176
Now, this is an interesting one.
177
A muz.
178
A muz?
179
M -U -Z -Z.
180
A muz.
181
Muz.
182
This is one I don't know.
183
I don't know that.
184
Bullshit.
185
What would you guess it means then?
186
I have no idea.
187
If it's a noun, a muz.
188
It's an abbreviation of mullet for hairdo.
189
No?
190
What if I said, I've been working hard all week.
191
I need a bit of a muz.
192
Let's do an NFI.
193
No idea.
194
Apparently, it means a rest or some downtime.
195
No, fuck off.
196
I don't know where this one came from.
197
I think ChatGPT has had a connection.
198
It's not from ChatGPT.
199
All the slang terms that I put into my slang e -book, I collected from online resources, dictionaries.
200
So, you know, again, I don't know if it's certain that it wasn't completely fabricated, but they tended to have come.
201
Oh, yeah.
202
Somebody will have said it once, but no, I've never heard that.
203
The only time I've ever heard the word muzz is a contraction of the name Murray.
204
So somebody called Murray would go, hey, you're going, muzz.
205
Yeah, my mate from high school was called muzz.
206
I never knew if that was Murray or Marcus that was getting to his muzzers.
207
Yeah, well, no. The only muzzers I've ever known have been called murray.
208
I feel like it has the feeling, too, of it being a word for munt or vomit or throw up.
209
Like, oh, mate, I'm feeling a bit sick.
210
I think I'm going to muzz.
211
I'm going to have a bit of a muzz.
212
No. No?
213
No, you're stretching.
214
Just delete that one.
215
No, we're not deleting it.
216
It's in there.
217
No, I'm not saying we'll leave it in, but the audience can delete it from their brain.
218
There'll probably be a whole bunch of students here up in Queensland being like, oh, yeah, come on, mate.
219
We use this all the time.
220
Have a muzz.
221
Exactly.
222
I hear Aussies saying they're having a bit of a muzz on the weekend to sleep all the time.
223
All right, number five, to rabbit on.
224
I think that's what we've been doing.
225
I knew that was coming.
226
What does rabbit on mean, Dan?
227
Rabbit on means to talk rubbish.
228
Talk on continuously, endlessly, but usually about nothing important.
229
It's like imagine a five -year -old.
230
Oh, no. At the moment, it sort of happens with Noah quite a lot.
231
Well, you're five to seven -year -old.
232
Get to the point, mate.
233
And then, and then, and then, and then.
234
Yeah, but I was just...
235
Is that something out of Kath and Kim?
236
I feel like that's out of Kath and Kim.
237
So how would you use the expression to rabbit on?
238
Oh, you're rabbiting on, mate.
239
Give it a fair go.
240
Yeah, you go down the pub, you're hanging out with your mates, having some beers, and one of them starts rabbiting on about some Sheila.
241
Some ladies, oh, yeah, rabbiting on, having a chat, having a...
242
You can't say Sheila without a broad Australian accent.
243
Sheila.
244
You can't say, oh, that Sheila over there.
245
Sheila.
246
Sheila means woman, by the way, guys.
247
And it's one of those weird ones, right?
248
It's not derogatory.
249
Not inherently anymore.
250
Did it used to be?
251
No. No, it was never derogatory?
252
Sheila was the feminine of bloke.
253
Yeah.
254
Blokes and sheilas.
255
Yeah, but it just became this kind of like, if you were to use that now on women, I think enough women didn't like it.
256
It became bogan -ish.
257
It became seen as a bit.
258
It became bogan.
259
Yeah, well...
260
Whereas bloke didn't.
261
Bloke is still a generic term.
262
I guess sort of like lower class Australia uses sheila
263
and bloke evenly and probably the sheilas the women probably don't get offended by it but
264
if you met middle upper class women who'd expect to be
265
called a sheila yeah check this sheila out she'd probably be like excuse me Like, what did you call me?
266
Oh, sorry, mate.
267
You're rabbiting on now, Pete.
268
What's next?
269
She'll be apples.
270
She'll be apples?
271
Yeah.
272
Who's she?
273
What are the apples?
274
Well, she'll be.
275
Why is she going to be an apple?
276
We've talked about this one in a previous episode.
277
No, but she'll be right.
278
Yeah, but no, but not this thing.
279
But she'll is, it's a generic term for it.
280
It's just changing the pronoun to a gender -based pronoun for no apparent reason.
281
And the funny thing is, though...
282
And he'll be right doesn't mean the same thing.
283
He'll be right definitely means a male person or someone who identifies as a male, whether they be human or dog or anything else.
284
Whereas she'll be right is just...
285
It's a non -thing.
286
It'll be okay.
287
Yeah, it's not like, oh, my lawnmower's broken.
288
You go, she'll be right.
289
Won't mean the lawnmower will be broken.
290
It'll be...
291
It'll all work out is what it means i have a
292
lot of um private students doing english lessons with me at the moment
293
and one of those recurring things especially for um say like portuguese
294
and spanish speakers is dropping it not using the pronoun it yes
295
or there but it in particular
296
and i'll say something like they'll say something like um was okay
297
and i'll be like it was okay you got to say it
298
and they'll be like who's it what's it yeah what is it referring to
299
and i'm like everything yeah it is the universe Exactly.
300
It's the universal pronoun.
301
The situation, the whole vibe, the whole thing.
302
So she'll be apples.
303
She'll be apples means it'll all be okay.
304
Yeah, I guess because apples are tasty.
305
I don't know where the apples thing comes from.
306
As far as I know, it's not rhyming slang for anything.
307
It probably is, Dad.
308
I just said as far as I know.
309
All right.
310
Oh, there you go.
311
Likely comes from rhyming slang using apples and spice or apples and rice to mean nice.
312
I love that when it's like so far removed from the original term nice that you would never guess.
313
It actually doesn't make any sense anymore.
314
Exactly.
315
That's why rhyming slang was used quite often, right?
316
It was a joke.
317
You would come up with, there would be one word like nice, and then you would come up with a phrase like apples and rice because the second word rhymes, and then you remove the second word so that it's not obvious.
318
Apples and rice makes no sense either.
319
That's a good combo.
320
Apples and spice, yes.
321
Apples and rice would be nice.
322
Because people would have cooked with nutmeg and cinnamon and stuff with apples, but apples and rice?
323
Who cooks apples and rice?
324
I don't know.
325
There's probably a lot of Asian listeners right now thinking, yeah.
326
A lot of Asians might, but Asians tend not to use rhyming slang in English.
327
I don't want to genericise, please, if you're of Asian origin and you do use those.
328
Please let us know.
329
There's this whole underground series of restaurants that just cook things with apples and rice.
330
Apples and rice, and they call it nice.
331
That's it.
332
Number seven, give it a burl.
333
Give it a burl, have a crack.
334
There you go.
335
That's it.
336
Have a crack.
337
Have a go at it.
338
There's a noun there.
339
Give it a bill.
340
Yeah, have a go.
341
Give it a try.
342
Have a go.
343
Give it a try.
344
But it's not an encouragement.
345
It's not an instruction.
346
It's sort of a, oh, okay, let's have a go.
347
Don't you think it's an instruction or like an encouragement?
348
Yeah, give it a try, mate.
349
Yeah, give it a bill.
350
Get in there.
351
But it's not, yeah, Jimmy, you're right, let's go.
352
It's not revving it up.
353
It's just, oh, well, let's try.
354
Yeah.
355
I think I had a friend over yesterday who came over to give my guitars a burl.
356
He was like, can I come and hang out and try your guitars out?
357
And I'm like, yeah, come give him a burl.
358
Can you hand me that 10mm socket?
359
I've only got an 11.
360
Oh, well, we'll give it a burl.
361
We'll try it.
362
We'll give it a try.
363
I wonder where that one comes from, right?
364
Give it a burl.
365
A burl would be, is that like...
366
I don't know what a burl is.
367
Isn't that the stuff that you put in the water when you're fishing to encourage fish?
368
It's burly.
369
Yeah, but like isn't it... To burl?
370
You're creating a verb out of burl.
371
What are you doing?
372
You're giving the water a burl?
373
I don't know.
374
So, yeah, you give it a burl.
375
Give something a try.
376
Number eight, a corker.
377
Corker?
378
A cracker.
379
A ripper.
380
A corker.
381
A really good one.
382
This is an interesting one where I feel like I would use this mostly for jokes.
383
If someone said a really good joke, I'd be like, that's a fucking corker.
384
This is sort of early 20th century Australian.
385
Yeah, okay.
386
Far out.
387
But it's carried through.
388
People used to understand it.
389
Your average 12 -year -old kid, if you said, oh, that's a corker, they'd go, oh, yeah, it is.
390
They wouldn't go, what the hell are you talking about?
391
But, yeah, it just means a good thing.
392
So it's that standard old ochre, early 20th century language.
393
So someone kicks a really good goal playing AFL.
394
What a corker.
395
What a corker.
396
Or if we want to be completely sexist about it, geez, that Sheila's a corker, mate.
397
Jesus Christ.
398
I think I would piss myself laughing if you actually said something like
399
that while we were out and about with the family.
400
Yeah, I would, but I have heard it said.
401
I don't think you would ever say something like that.
402
I would not.
403
Hey, Pete, get a load of this shield.
404
She's a corker.
405
She's a corker.
406
All right, number nine, the Bush Telegraph.
407
The Bush Telegraph?
408
Yeah, what's the Bush Telegraph?
409
The Bush Telegraph is just the rumour mill.
410
The rumour mill, it is, you know, the gossip of rumours spreading by word of mouth.
411
Yes.
412
So I guess what's the telegraph or a telegraph?
413
Telegraph is an old 19th century form of communication.
414
The original electronic, well, it wasn't electronics,
415
electrical communication where people used Morse code over an electric wire to communicate.
416
and so the bush telegraph was just person to person
417
in my head I imagine instead of like poles with an
418
electrical wire going along you've got people hey Pete did you hear
419
that Ian's an idiot hey Bill Ian's an idiot
420
so how would you use this in a sentence how'd you find out about
421
that the bush telegraph mate through the grapevine
422
Heard it through the grapevine Alright That's the 1960s And I heard it through the bush telegraph Too many syllables Alright, number 10, zoomies Zoomies?
423
Yeah, zoomies That's usually children or dogs
424
or cats Who are just running around like idiots My cats
425
seem to do it every night at about 9pm We used
426
to call it the midnight mads with our cats Where all of a sudden they just go
427
And they're just running up and down the hallway Isn't that weird that they kind of The cats in particular, well, I've got two, right?
428
Peaches and Scrappy.
429
And it's like every time at night, they're not doing it during the day.
430
No. They don't do it in the morning.
431
But when the evening comes, I don't know if that's like peak circadian rhythm, like they've just woken up.
432
And they're all of a sudden real frisky.
433
And like, it's so funny, you know, Peaches will walk up to Scrap and just give him a look.
434
And they go, you ready?
435
And then they just tear at it.
436
And I'm like, I wonder what...
437
I think she comes up from the side, right?
438
Shows the side.
439
The ears go back and the tail flicks and you're like, ooh, this means business.
440
So, yeah, it's the old signal of I'm going to fight you to let's go.
441
And she just piss bolts afterwards.
442
And then he chases her immediately knowing what's up, what the game is.
443
So how would you use the term zoomies in a sentence?
444
Those cats have got the zoomies.
445
Or the dog running around the backyard chasing a ball.
446
Yeah, they do it too.
447
Labradors, right?

Word of the year in about 2020 or 2015 or something.

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.
