1
If you would like to be a highly competent speaker, I have some super useful phrases that you can use to help you achieve that goal.
2
And let's go ahead and get started with our first phrase, which is to bide your time.
3
This means to wait patiently for the perfect opportunity to do something.
4
And I really wanna emphasize the perfect opportunity because when you are biding your time, you're not just waiting passively, you are waiting strategically.
5
So you might bide your time waiting for the perfect opportunity to ask for a promotion,
6
or you're biding your time waiting for the perfect opportunity to ask someone out on a date.
7
I could say instead of rushing into the market, the tech company is biding its time to see how its competitors' products perform first.
8
So you don't want to rush into things.
9
You want to wait for the perfect opportunity.
10
So really keep that in mind that you are waiting strategically to do something whenever you are biding your time Yeah,
11
all right, then I don't want to seem like an ogre I'll bide my time and twist in the wind slowly
12
Slowly right if you don't block you're not gonna start start By my time it is stupid tricks, right?
13
Everyone helps you get out of here, okay?
14
professor.
15
Oh, maybe I'm just biding my time.

It is all about helping you reach your fluency goals.
21
And I would love it if you subscribe.
22
It's important to me, but maybe you think this is just much ado about nothing.
23
And really what I want to do is just lead you in to that expression because that's our next phrase, much ado about nothing.
24
This refers to a lot of fuss, excitement, or trouble about something that is unimportant or trivial.
25
And the phrase is a literary reference to Shakespeare's comedy, much ado about nothing.
26
But today, you can use this whenever you want to criticize an overreaction.
27
Somebody is overreacting and you could say, look, it's much ado about nothing.
28
Or maybe you are overreacting and you could use this phrase.
29
So in that case, I could say, I spent all night worrying about the presentation,
30
but it turned out to be much ado about nothing because the boss just wanted a quick update.
31
And therefore I was worrying about it.
32
It turned out to be unimportant or rather trivial.
33
So I could say it was much ado about nothing.
34
She made me realize that this little dust-up between you and me is much ado about nothing.
35
This departure can only mean more trouble for Steel Dragons.
36
The band continues to struggle to maintain its status.
37
Well, as far as I'm concerned, it's much ado about nothing, you know.
38
Still four of us left with the original four.
39
I can't believe it's a real possibility, Michael.
40
I've come to the conclusion it's much ado about nothing.
41
To keep someone in the dark.
42
This really has a negative connotation because it means to intentionally withhold information from someone.
43
And you're trying to keep this person uninformed.
44
So there really may be one of two reasons why you may keep someone in the dark.
45
It could be because of a lack of trust.
46
You don't trust this person and therefore you don't want to tell them everything and you keep them in the dark.
47
Or maybe it's a strategic move and you want to keep someone in the dark
48
because you don't want them to interfere with whatever it is you're doing, maybe your work.
49
And therefore, you want to make sure that this person is uninformed and you keep them in the dark.
50
To give you an example, I don't like when my doctor keeps me in the dark about the potential side effects of new medications.
51
And this is just the example that I came up with, but yes, I think it's true.
52
I don't think anybody wants their doctor to keep them in the dark.
53
It's a reprimand. For what?
54
Keeping me in the dark.
55
You expect us to believe that your wife is keeping you in the dark?
56
That this new park would put all other water parks out of business.
57
Typical big water, always keeping the public in the dark.
58
The next phrase is to jog your memory.
59
This means to help someone remember something that they have forgotten.
60
Now, usually this involves some sort of a trigger, like a photo, a word,
61
or some place, and it helps someone remember whatever it is that they're trying to remember, and it jogs their memory.
62
So, keep that in mind that you're often going to use this whenever you or someone else is trying to remember something.
63
I think a common example is when people lose or misplace their keys.
64
It happens to everyone and maybe this happens to you
65
and then I say maybe if we walk through the events of
66
that night it will help jog your memory about where you left your keys
67
and you're trying to remember it and jog your memory.
68
And another example is that I always ask you to subscribe and hit the like button.
69
And yeah, I really just want to help jog your memory because it's there, it's in front of you.
70
But sometimes you may forget to do that.
71
And perhaps you think this is just much ado about nothing.
72
Like, look, it's trivial.
73
It's unimportant, but it's important to me.
74
And I just want to jog your memory in case you have forgotten subscribe hit
75
that like button But also just it's a good way to review and practice using these phrases
76
Let's jog your memory Marinette Monday morning absent from PE actually, you know Re-establishing a normal routine of activities might help jog your memory.
77
I don't know what you're talking about Maybe this is a jog your memory names dates phone numbers, emails, bank statements, wire transfer.
78
Then we have to downplay something.
79
I like this phrase probably because I certainly use it from time to time.
80
It means to make something seem less important, serious or significant than it actually is.
81
Now, often you may hear people use this in politics or business whenever they want to minimize
82
or downplay the impact of bad news or a mistake.
83
I'm even using it as I'm trying to give you an example, downplay the impact.
84
And that really leads me into the next thing that I wanna say, which is there are some common collocations with this phrase.
85
And collocations are words that are frequently used together, a great way to just supercharge your vocabulary.
86
So you may downplay the impact, significance, or importance of something.
87
You could also downplay the risk, dangers, damage, or severity of something.
88
And really, you're just trying to diminish or reduce this bad news or some mistake.
89
So let me give you an example.
90
This is a real-life example.
91
The government tried to downplay the economic impact of the new trade tariffs.
92
This happened.
93
they imposed these tariffs and then they tried to downplay the economic impact real life example
94
somebody with your past doesn't want to be seen downplaying the
95
importance of security from our communist allies comedian yes why i
96
don't think your honor she's downplaying this she's going on the
97
road with shy baldwin it's a huge thing i'm sure you
98
might find something useful in there to help you get your
99
footing you don't have to downplay your excitement on my account stevie Then there's to make a beeline for some place.
100
This means to go quickly and directly to something or someone.
101
It's a very descriptive phrase because it accurately describes this situation.
102
And it really implies that there are no distractions.
103
You're not wasting any time when you make a beeline for some place.
104
It does not mean that you're running.
105
You are just moving from one point to the next quickly without any stops or delays.
106
And once again, there are some useful collocations with this phrase.
107
Maybe you make a beeline for the toilet.
108
I think we've all done this.
109
Or you make a beeline for the exit.
110
If a concert or a movie, it ends, you want to get out of there and you make a beeline for the exit.
111
Or you go to the airport, you're running a little behind and you make a beeline for the gate.
112
I could say when he arrived at the party, he made a beeline for the snack table.
113
And in this situation, perhaps he was really hungry.
114
But I think this is a great phrase that we can all relate to, because I'm sure at one point or another, we have all made a beeline for the toilet.
115
Because when you gotta go, you gotta go.
116
I don't know about you guys, but I'm gonna make a beeline for the place that gives you a princess makeover.
117
I used to run up here a lot with Pepper and she would always make a direct beeline to this rock.
118
Remember Pepper?
119
I think I must have eaten something bad that day.
120
Anyway, my stomach was upside down, so I made a beeline to the stall, but then I pulled down my pants, sat down, but instead of shit, I threw up into my pants.
121
Then we have another phrase that I really like because, again, I use it quite often and I like to think that I am a competent speaker,
122
and that is to get your second win.
123
This means when you feel a sudden burst of energy after feeling tired
124
or exhausted and you get your second win this was originally a sports term
125
but nowadays you could use it to talk about any situation
126
if you are working late or traveling for a long time
127
and then you get that sudden burst of energy and you get your second win.
128
Let me give you a couple of different examples.
129
Let me give you a sport example.
130
I was exhausted halfway through the hike
131
but after a quick snack I got my second win and made it to the summit.
132
And you had that sudden burst of energy.
133
Or a work example.
134
We were working late at night
135
and around 11 p.m the team got their second win
136
and finished the project and you just had that strength
137
and energy in order to finish the project and you get your second win.
138
Great phrase and hopefully it makes a bit more sense now
139
that I've given you a couple of examples with each of those contacts.
140
Well, hurry up and get your second win because I've got our day all planned out.
141
You want pie?
142
Yeah.
143
I'm getting my second win.
144
Me too.
145
Look at this.
146
Last night he's swimming in Jack Daniels and now he can lead Todd Billings in a single bound.
147
A second, wait.
148
Sit down, both of you.
149
Good.
150
Then there's to catch flack or to catch a lot of flack.
151
I think often people will use this phrase with a lot of.
152
To catch a lot of flack.
153
This means to receive strong criticism or opposition.
154
Now, flack originally refers to anti-aircraft fire.
155
Nowadays, you can use this whenever you're referring to any type of strong criticism criticism
156
that you feel like you're getting from all sides.
157
And then in that case, you could say you are catching flack or catching a lot of flack.
158
The mayor is catching a lot of flack for his decision to close the local library.
159
And he is catching flack for that decision.
160
I also want to point out
161
that often you may follow this phrase with for whenever you are sharing why someone is receiving this criticism
162
and you are catching flack for something.
163
To give you a little more context, here are some news headlines.
164
Gen Z workers catch a lot of flack.
165
It's become TV's favorite punchline.
166

167

168
And they caught flack for doing this thing.
169

170
Hottest in the office goes to Danny Cordray!
171
Talk about a recluse.
172

173
I'll be this up there to avoid detaching.
174
You know, folks, it's been an interesting couple of weeks here at Chappelle's Show.
175
A lot of flack I've been getting for the racially charged sketches.
176
It happens.
177
Then we have the phrase, an eye-opening experience.
178
I love it very descriptive phrase because it describes a situation
179
that teaches you something unexpected or surprising and it's something
180
that really changes your perspective because this is a positive way of saying
181
that you have come to some sort of realization or learning
182
and often it's used when talking about some cultural
183
or social awareness volunteering at the shelter was an eye-opening experience that changed how I view homelessness.
184
So this is a great phrase whenever you want to add emphasis and describe that moment of realization.
185
Your brother's a real assbag.
186
Yes.
187
Yes, he is.
188
This whole thing's been a very eye-opening experience.
189
I'm sorry for the way I treated you.
190
That night, she had an eye-opening experience.
191
Charlotte hadn't been that excited since she tried on her JV cheerleading uniform for the first time.
192
Hey, Denise, this is me, Nissey I had an eye-opening experience earlier today.
193
I'm calling to apologize for the way I treated you.
194
Then there's to sell yourself short.
195
This means to underestimate your own value or abilities.
196
And essentially, you're just not giving yourself enough credit whenever you're selling yourself short.
197
We often use this as advice to encourage someone to be a bit more confident.
198
Perhaps going in for a job interview or negotiation.
199
Look, just don't sell yourself short.
200
So I perhaps I tell you, you are an incredible designer.
201
Don't sell yourself short by asking for such a low salary.
202
And one thing I want to point out is that I think often people use that stand alone statement, telling someone else, don't sell yourself short.
203
If someone is underestimating their own value or ability, that is when you can use this phrase and tell that person, look, don't sell yourself short.
204
Oh, but I'm such a loser.
205
She'll never let me do that.
206
Come on, Chris.
207
Don't sell yourself short.
208
You are every bit as good as that bag of garbage.
209
Stop selling yourself short.
210
You got it going on.
211
You just got to show him.
212
Don't sell yourself short.
213
Allow yourself to grow with roads, share experiences, build memories.
214
To be in over your head.
215
This is a phrase that I can certainly relate to.
216
I've been in over my head more than once.
217
And it means to be involved in a situation that is too difficult or complex for you to handle.
218
And really, it does provide a visual that if you are in water
219
that is too deep and you're in over your head, you're struggling to keep going, to survive, to figure it out.
220
And you could just tell someone, look, you are in over your head.
221
I thought that I could fix the plumbing myself, but I was definitely in over my head.
222
And I'm giving you this example
223
because this is how I feel whenever I try to fix or repair something around the home.
224
I feel like I'm in over my head.
225
And typically I am.
226
But unlike yourselves, I was born without taste buds.
227
Let me demonstrate.
228
I'm in over my head here.
229
Truth is, we're in over our heads.
230
I know Clay thought we could make this work, but we can't.
231
The market's crashing.
232
You're in over your head.
233
Maybe you're in over your head.
234
Then there's the phrase, to put it in layman's terms.
235
I love this phrase because this is something that I ask other people to do.
236
And it means to take complex or difficult language and make it simple for the average person to understand.
237
So whenever there is really technical jargon, if it's legal or medical, it's something that I don't understand.
238
And I might ask the doctor or a lawyer, whomever, hey, can you put it in layman's terms?
239
Translate it so that somebody like me can understand what it is you're talking about.
240
And I think we can all relate to this because not everybody's a professional in every subject.
241
And if somebody's talking about their profession or career, it could be confusing.
242
You could politely ask them, be like, look, I'm not following.
243
Can you please just put it in layman's terms so that I can understand?
244
Here's an example.
245
I didn't understand the legal jargon in the contract.
246
So I asked my lawyer to put it in layman's terms.
247
Now, let me give you a bonus phrase just because I love you.
248
And that is to dumb it down.
249
This has a similar meaning.
250
You are taking complex or difficult language and just putting it in much simpler terms.
251
The difference is that to put it in layman's terms is a bit more neutral.
252
You're just asking someone to translate it so that it's easier to understand.
253
To dumb it down can be a bit more negative.
254
If I were to say, look, do I have to dumb it down for you?
255
That's a bit more rude.
256
You could use this if you want to be a little more self-deprecating, and that's how I would use it If I don't understand something and I want to kind of pretend like,
257
look, I have no clue what you're talking about.
258
I'm kind of an idiot when it comes to this topic.
259
You got to dumb it down.
260
Please dumb it down for me.
261
But in general, I think it's just good to know our universal phrase, be a little more neutral, and ask somebody to put it in layman's terms.
262
It leads me to believe that maybe half of these accounts are casuistic.
263
In layman's terms, please.
264
That they're completely made up.
265
What was your last job?
266
I'm your theoretical particle physicist at Caltech focusing on M theory.
267
In layman's terms, string theory.
268
Cause of death was asphyxiation or smothering, in layman's terms.
269
What does layman's terms mean?
270
I hope that watching this lesson was an eye-opening experience.
271
And I also hope that it was easy to follow, because I really do try to take these phrases
272
and put it in layman's terms so that it is very simple to understand.
273
Now, it's great if you learn some new vocabulary today.
274
I would also be happy if this lesson helped jog your memory
275
and reminded you and you remembered that you had learned this vocabulary once already and now you remember it.
276
So I would recommend that you continue building your vocabulary.
277
Watch another video lesson.
278
I know that you're tired, but I think you can do it.
279
Don't sell yourself short.
280
I am confident that as soon as you start the next video, you're going to get your second win and you'll be able to understand the vocabulary.
281
It's not going to go over your head.
282
In fact, I think it's going to go right in your head.
283
You'll be able to learn it, remember it and use it.
284
And that's all I got.
285

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
