We're gonna travel around Singapore, explore, and if you like learning English and watching travel content, then you're in the right place.
5
Now to get my suitcase.
6
So I am waiting for my suitcase and this is a conveyor belt.
7
The conveyor belt is moving around and taking people's suitcases.
8
What time is it?
9
Hmm.
10
- Yeah.
11
Suitcase time.
12
Smart.
13
Taxi stand.
14
This is a sign for the taxis.
15
A taxi stand is a place where you wait for your taxi.
16
And now in Singapore, they use Grab taxi, just like in Vietnam.
17
I'm gonna Finds.
18
The taxi stand.
19

22
I'm putting my suitcase in the car boot.
23

25
Hello mate.
26
Thank you man.
27
Well hello guys, look who we have here.
28
Hello!
29
It's Jarrod.
30
For some context for those who don't know, Jarrod and I have been friends for 26 years now.
31
Since we were 4 years old.
32
And yeah, what a ride.
33
Many ups and downs.
34
Mostly ups.
35
Yeah, a few downs.
36
We've been having a catch -up, which is the next word.
37
A catch -up is when you haven't seen somebody in a long time, and you have a conversation, and see what's been going on in their lives.
38
Now the plan is to go get some food, because I've been flying for a while, I'm hungry so we're gonna go to a Hawker Center.
39
We have arrived Maxwell food center.
40
Let's go.
41
Okay, and we call this a stall.
42
There are two people in red cooking some food.
43
All right, let's find a seat.
44
We found a table and yeah, about to toast to good friends in Singapore.
45
Cheers.
46
Where are they?
47
Yeah, they're somewhere around here.
48
It's good.
49
That is good.
50
Cheers, man.
51
So we are in a Hawker Centre and in this Hawker Centre there are lots of different stalls.
52
A stall is like a small shop that sells different types of food.
53
Oh, the beeper is beeping.
54
Are you going to go get that?
55
I'll go get that.
56
Alright, see you soon.
57
Jared's going to come back with some food so I'll see you in 3, 2, 1.
58
Chopsticks and dumplings.
59
This is a carrot cake.
60
Carrot cake is not normal carrot cake.
61
No, carrot cake for us would be a sweet baked good.
62
I'm really into this.
63
Yeah.
64
Okay, there's a good word.
65
If you really like something, you're into it.
66
Say, I'm into it.
67
I'm into this.
68
I really like it.
69
- I'm selling it.
70
This is an escalator and we are going down the escalator.
71
Hello YouTube.
72
Hello YouTube.
73
I love YouTube.
74
We're on our way to the...
75
where are we going, Jarrod?
76
Gardens by the Bay.
77
Anyway, we're going on the metro now.
78
On the metro.
79
You can also call it an underground or a subway.
80
What do they call it in London?
81
The Underground.
82
London Underground Cheers.
83
- Thank you.
84
Is this us?
85
- Scissors.
86
- Okay.
87
Me and Jared are having a conversation on the metro.
88
On the left there is a mother with a pushchair.
89
In the middle, there is a muscular man with a vest
90
and on the right there is a guy looking at my camera.
91
I'm tapping my card and walking through the barriers.
92
Bye.
93
all right we've arrived at the Gardens by the Bay these are spectacular
94
and we're right here in time for a light show up there you have giant structures with plants crawling up them
95
and there is a bridge with a neon blue lights.
96
underneath it and very soon there's going to be a light show.
97
It's nice and cool as well.
98
It's a breeze.
99
That's a good word for you guys.
100
A breeze.
101
a light wind It's called a breeze.
102
Ah, and that breeze is nice.
103
So we need to go Find his seats.
104
and Get ready to watch this light show.
105
So in this environment you can see giant structures that look like trees.
106
And the lights are flashing in time with the music.
107
There are lots of people gathered around and we call this 'crown'.
108
This area is crowded.
109
Woo!
110
Everyone is clapping or applauding the spectacular light show.
111
Now we're going to go to the top of MBS which is A large building up there.
112
and we're navigating our way through crowd busy crowds.
113
You can say it's very hectic.
114
It's very busy here.
115
Bye.
116
Okay, now we're in the MBS, Marina Bay Sands Hotel, and this is massive.
117
This is just one of the pillars, there's three of these.
118
three of these.
119
Holy moly.
120
We just arrived on the rooftop and check this view out.
121
Madness.
122
We are on the 57th floor.
123
Let's get a cocktail.
124
This is called the bar.
125
We are looking at the menu and now Jared is talking to the bartender.
126
Alright, cheers Jared.
127
Cheers amigo.
128
And cheers to you behind the screen.
129
I'll see you tomorrow in day two.
130
Music Good morning guys.
131
I'm standing on Jared's balcony and enjoying My morning...
132
Cooper.
133
A cuppa is a cup of tea and it's a very British thing to drink on a morning.
134
And the plan for today is to take a walk, we're gonna get some breakfast, and then we're gonna go to the botanical gardens,
135
and Jared's gonna Show me more of Singapore.
136
So, I'm excited for the day ahead.
137
I'm going to try film as much as I can and Bring you guys along, teach us some English and have fun.
138
One word.
139
Well, two words, actually.
140
The first one is I'm here on a balcony.
141
and a balcony is the outside part of the house that looks out onto the view.
142
And over there, this is a construction site You can see two cranes.
143
towering above.
144
And a construction site is where they are building a new building.
145
For all my English learners out there, if you want to become fluent, then check out the Sprout website.
146
The method is simple.
147
You watch a video.
148
You learn new vocabulary related to a topic like winter and snow in my newest career skiing video.
149
Then you speak with J .I to practice the vocabulary and use the words that you learned in the video.
150
speak.
151
It's as simple as that.
152
And if you do want to become fluent in English, then sprout is the way.
153
We are walking to have breakfast and on the streets.
154
You can see A stop sign.
155
for cars to stop.
156
Over there is some wall art, or we can say a mural.
157
This is called a crossroads.
158
- The house on here.
159
Don't call.
160
A paw print. From a dog.
161
Good job.
162
And that with two fat cats.
163
Jared is wearing green shirts with an Orange back.
164
Look at this tree, guys.
165
Wow, what do you think of that, Jarrod?
166
- I'm mad.
167
- Yeah, these trees are really cool.
168
Their branches and their limbs stretch out like veins in the human body.
169
or like roots in the ground create a really interesting pattern.
170
Thank you.
171
Very cool.
172
I love the trees here.
173
Feels like Jungle Book.
174
- We're waiting in a queue to eat breakfast at Yacoon Kaya Toast,
175
a super famous Singapore place for kaya toast, butter and soft boiled eggs.
176
And Jared is bringing me here for the first time.
177
I'm excited because I'm trying a classic local Singaporean breakfast and I'm curious if it tastes as good as everyone says.
178
The steam from the boiling eggs is rising The numbers in red tell you when your order is ready.
179
Ours is coming now.
180
Jared is arriving with the coffees.
181
Best time of the day.
182
Lovely.
183
Jared's got a hot coffee.
184
I've got iced coffee.
185
Cheers.
186
- Oh.
187
Good.
188
The man with the food.
189
This is...
190
Toast?
191
toasted bread and some wet and runny eggs.
192
Good word, runny.
193
They are wet and running.
194
Derrick is pouring the soy sauce on the eggs.
195
Can you put it on mine too?
196
you Thanks.
197
Nice one.
198
Alright, let's dig in.
199
Jared is breaking.
200
Breaking it in half and good word, good verb, dipping it.
201
I am dipping the egg and look at that
202
that is an egg yolk excellent so this is really good and you have these like thin crispy toasts
203
with butter and cayo spread inside.
204
It's like honey sweeping.
205
And you dip it in the eggs.
206
You dip it in the yolk, in the runny eggs.
207
and It's sweet, it's salty, it's really good.
208
Unique breakfast.
209
We have just finished breakfast.
210
Four bellies.
211
And now we're going to go to the botanical gardens.
212
Let's go.
213
Can we go up here?
214
All right, up to you, sir.
215
Mm.
216
And we're going to take the Metruar.
217
the metro.
218
Look.
219
- Look at that, a chessboard in the metro station.
220
So now we get an iJuice, which is a orange juice in a vending machine.
221
Freshly squeezed.
222
Orange juice.
223
And we go to quench.
224
our thirst.
225
To quench your thirst is to go from thirsty to not thirsty.
226
There we go, coming out of the metro.
227
Jared's putting on his sunglasses.
228
It's a bit bright.
229
Let's go see some gardens.
230
Huh.
231
Right guys, we are on a quest, a mission to find the monitor lizard.
232
which is like a Komodo dragon but without the poisonous tongue.
233
And apparently there are monitor lizards here.
234
I hope so.
235
You'll find them by hook or by crook.
236
Let's go find them.
237
Alright, first spot of the wildlife.
238
We have a rooster.
239
On the floor.
240
So we are in the botanical gardens.
241
and "rotany" is the word for the study of plants.
242
And in here we are surrounded by foliage. or greenery.
243
and we're looking for the orchids.
244
An orchid is a type of plant.
245
this type of plant.
246
This...
247
Isn't.. orchid And this is a fountain.
248
There is a man watering the plants.
249
Of course the most attractive thing in the Botanical Gardens is a traffic cone and a hose pipe.
250
Yes.
251
Look how beautiful this is.
252
And Jared just said a good word there.
253
What did you say Jared?
254
Stunning!
255
Stunning can describe a beautiful view nice scenery, or a fit person.
256
I just said a fit person.
257
If someone is fit, in British slang, it means they are attractive.
258
A man or a woman can be fit.
259
Different to physically fit.
260
They might be using a sentence such as: - Ah.
261
He's well fit.
262
She's well fit.
263
fit equals attractive.
264
Hot.
265
So we are wandering.
266
which means we're walking gently, casually, With no real aim.
267
of any destination.
268
- A good spot.
269
- Right guys?
270
in this little pond here We have some turtles.
271
You can just See them on the left hand side there.
272
It's a you can see the turtle shell.
273
And everyone gets this wrong, even natives.
274
But a tortoise is the one that walks on land, a tortoise, and a turtle is the one that swims in the water.
275
Tortoise walks on land, Turtle swims in the water.
276
Me and Jared have just been devising a way for you to remember a tortoise on land
277
and we came up with a tortoise likes to walk us and a turtle is like Squirtle if you've seen Pokemon.
278
Squirtle swims in the water.
279
- It's not very good, is it?
280
But a tortoise likes to walk us.
281
- It's one way.
282
- So we are here in the botanical gardens.
283
Looking.
284
The beautiful scenery The grass, the trees, the pond, the water, the birds, the frogs, the butterflies and the dragonflies.
285
And it's really rather beautiful.
286
So right now, Jared is looking at the map to find out where we are.
287
Did you find out?
288
This way.
289
This way?
290
Come with me.
291
So we're walking along this path and there are butterflies but it's hard to capture them because Hey!
292
They keep flying everywhere.
293
Alright guys, we are in the foliage garden.
294
Foliage is the term for plant leaves and collectively.
295
Lots of leaves.
296
That looks like something from Jurassic Park.
297
Look at these trees, they look ancient.
298
mad that that's well older than us.
299
There at least.
300
10 years old.
301
We are in a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
302
Cool.
303
- - Yeah.
304
Jared doing his wood pigeon.
305
That's good.
306
These plants to our left are called ferns.
307
A palm leaf.
308
Look at the roots on this tree.
309
instead of growing into the ground they are kind of sprawled out like a spider's legs.
310
Very cool.
311
And look at this tree.
312
The roots are growing down from the trunk.
313
is the trunk and the roots are growing down into the ground.
314
This is a beautiful world, guys.
315
Not planable.
316
Plethora.
317
Platera means there are lots of something.
318
They are abundant.
319
Trying to give the people the slang term of a plethora?
320
Clothes.
321
So you can see the turtle guys, I remember.
322
The turtle is the one that swims in the water.
323
Tortoise likes to walk us.
324
An on the turtle is a hard shell.
325
The same shell that you find on an egg.
326
or a snail.
327
Oh.
328
It's quite hot, sweating, it's humid, the air is wet.
329
This is a lake. or a big pond.
330
So the weather is very hot and when it's hot and wet together we say it's humid.
331
but There is a breeze and that breeze is really nice.
332
A breeze is a light wind.
333
and that's refreshing.
334
Look at these guys.
335
These are giants.
336
Lily Pants And people have thrown coins onto the lily pads.
337
Nice, make a wish.
338
- I already have.
339
- What do you wish for?
340
- For you to fall in.
341
- Good.
342
This is really cool.
343
So here is a giant pond with lily pads on.
344
and that is a stage
345
you
346
you you you Wow, there's a garden here.
347
Good work here guys, trickling.
348
The water is trickling down the stream.
349
I have some more orchids.
350
and Look at this.
351
This...
352
green stuff on the rocks.
353
It's called "Moss".
354
This is moss.
355
Two good words guys.
356
This is spongy.
357
The texture is soft like a sponge cake.
358
These leaves are spiky.
359
They are sharp and pointy.
360
Spongey and spiky.
361
These orchids are beautiful.
362
Thank you.
363
Right guys, we just found a monitor lizard.
364
Check this out.
365
We did it guys, we found the monitor lizard.
366
Look at how it crawls.
367
It's got a forked tongue.
368
The monitor wizard is crawling.
369
across the grass.
370
He's sticking his tongue out and I think that's to sense his environment.
371
Okay.
372
- Good.
373
We just left the botanical gardens and chilled out, had a rest.
374
Now we're going to head out for some drinks and some food.
375
We are crossing the road and there are people passing on our left.
376
So we have just arrived at the famous Raffles.
377
And these houses are very fancy.
378
That's the next word, fancy.
379
This is a large hotel and the front of the building is lit up with warm light.
380
This is a courtyard with a fountain in the background.
381
Bye.
382
Jared is dishing up the food.
383
We have some sweet breads, which is noodles with stir -fried Seafood?
384
Some side salad.
385
Sweet chili sauce, vegetable spring rolls. And...
386
The beef.
387
Rondang, which is kind of curry.
388
How's it taste?
389
I love that.
390
- Yeah, it's probably doable.
391
Dinner was bloody lovely.
392
Now we're walking through a tunnel.
393
There are red lights on either side of the tunnel, and funky artwork painted on the walls.
394
Right now we're heading to an arcade bar.
395
We are in an arcade bar, and I am drinking a pint.
396
Cheers!
397
The neon lights are flashing on the ceiling.
398
This is the bar, where the bartenders make your drinks.
399
This is called a joystick.
400
And this is a coin slot where you insert your coins into.
401
The buttons are flashing.
402
It's time to play.
403
This game is called Master Sniper.
404
A sniper rifle is a gun that can shoot bullets from a long range.
405
Or shoot Jared from a short range.
406
This is a basketball game.
407
You throw the basketballs into the hoop.
408
Now we're playing darts.
409
I am throwing the dart at the dartboard.
410
I'm taking the darts out of the dartboard and handing them to Jarrod.
411
It's his turn.
412
We want a fish!
413
The night has been a success.
414
We are here at the famous Merlion in Singapore, which is a combination of a lion and a fish together.
415
Which leads me onto the final word of the day, which is a hybrid.
416
A hybrid is a combination of two things.
417
Thank you for watching.
418
And if you like learning English like this, I have a challenge for you.

Как правильно произносить: подсказки по акценту
Чтобы улучшить произношение, используйте технику shadow speech (или shadow speak): повторяйте за говорящим сразу же, копируя ритм и интонацию. В видео речь друзей лёгкая, с естественными паузами, что удобно для тренировки. Обратите внимание на произношение слов like suitcase (['suːtkeɪs]) — не пропускайте звук "t", и cheers ([tʃɪəz]) — мягкий "ch" и долгий "i". Эти детали сделают вашу речь более естественной. Практикуйте каждый день, и вы заметите прогресс: shadow speech — это проверенный метод, который помогает быстро адаптироваться к акценту и улучшить разговорный английский.

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.
