1
Good afternoon, sir.
2
Could we interest you in some chocolate?
3
Chocolate?
4
Did you say chocolate?
5
Yes, sir.
6
With or without nuts.
7
Chocolate?
8
Chocolate?
9
Chocolate!
10
Chocolate!
11
Chocolate!
12
Aww yeah!
13
Are you ready to learn English with one of the most popular cartoons of all time?
14
Well, in today's lesson, we're going under the sea with SpongeBob SquarePants and his friends, Patrick Starr, Sandy Cheeks, and Squidward.
15
So we're going to be learning with three clips from three different episodes
16
which you might remember if you ever watched this classic series.
17
So let's dive in.
18
It's furrowing.
19
Ah!
20
Finally!
21
I've been trying to catch you boys all day!
22
Now that I've got you right where I want you, I'd like to buy all your chocolate.
23
Hey, so we're going to jump into learning with this clip that you've just watched, but I wanted to let you know that we're saving the most important everyday expressions, like have mercy on me,
24
spare me, and that I interest you in that we've just seen over on the RealLife English app.
25
This is absolutely the best experience that you can get with these lessons.
26
And you can get the interactive transcript
27
and vocabulary slash cards for free right now by clicking the link down in the description below from your phone.
28
And I'll be telling you more about the app in just a little bit.
29
So we just saw a funny clip where Spongebob and Patrick are trying to sell chocolate.
30
Good afternoon sir, could we interest you in some chocolate?
31
This is a polite and friendly way to offer someone something.
32
For example, imagine you're a street artist selling your handmade jewelry.
33
When people walk by to have a closer look, instead of asking, are you interested in handmade jewelry?
34
You could say, could I interest you in some of my handmade jewelry?
35
See the difference?
36
Instead of assuming they're already interested, you're gently offering and you might spark their curiosity by telling them about the natural materials you used,
37
your unique techniques, and so on.
38
Now on this clip, there was some really nice pronunciation and connected speech, which is how we natives cut, reduce, and link our words together.
39
First off, let's look at how they said the word chocolate.
40
You can pronounce this word two ways, with three syllables, like Spongebob says,
41
chocolate, or with just two syllables, which is common in everyday fast speech, chocolate.
42
This is actually true of both British and American English, as is portrayed in the hilarious English comedy show Little Burton.
43
Chocolate.
44
Yeah, we sort of had chocolate.
45
Chocolate biscuits.
46
Yeah, they're sort of covered in chocolate.
47
Yeah, that's why he likes them.
48
Next, try to catch some of the connected speech in this next phrase.
49
Chocolate?
50
Did you say chocolate?
51
Did you notice how he pronounced did you?
52
In English, when a word ends with a D sound and the next word starts with a Y sound, they often blend together to make a j sound.
53
So instead of did you, it sounds like did you.
54
Practice your speaking by trying to repeat.
55
Did you say chocolate?
56
Did you say chocolate?
57
Awesome!
58
So let's keep going and try to find some more cool expressions in this clip.
59
You know, it's not so easy to catch everything here
60
because they are talking over each other and the scene is very fast and chaotic.
61
But let's slow it down and focus on two important phrases Patrick says.
62
This is a dramatic way of begging someone for kindness when you are afraid they might hurt you.
63
Mercy means kindness or forgiveness when someone has the power to harm you.
64
You probably won't use this phrase much in daily conversation unless you're joking like when you're losing badly in a game.
65
But let's have a look at this classic scene from The Lion King.
66
Patrick continues his begging here.
67
To spare someone means not to hurt them or take their life.
68
Spare me is sometimes used less dramatically in casual conversation, often when you want someone to stop messing with you, or when someone is making excuses and you do not care about them.
69
Check out these two examples from The Simpsons where this word is used in different meanings.
70
To spare meaning to save someone's life, and then to stop messing with someone.
71
Homer, did you barricade the door?
72
Why?
73
Oh, the zombies.
74
No. Spare my family.
75
Take me.
76
Take me.
77
It's all of us, Homer.
78
She's embarrassed by all of us.
79
No, not at all.
80
You said I was a chemist.
81
I'm not a chemist.
82
But you are a chemist.
83
In the way that you deal with the household spills and the way...
84
Oh, spare me.
85
Ah, yeah.
86
So mastering connected speech is absolutely crucial if you want to understand fast speaking natives and to speak more naturally yourself.
87
So let's check out another connected speech example here.
88
The common way to reduce the phrase trying to is trying to.
89
Trying to catch you.
90
Let's listen again and repeat.
91
Now that I've got you right where I want you!
92
Remember we learned about how a D plus Y combination becomes a J sound?
93
Well something similar happens when we have a T and Y together, but they morph into a CH sound.
94
So instead of I want you, he says I want you.
95
Listen and try to repeat.
96
Now that I've got you right where I want you!
97
Now that I've got you right where I want you!
98
Now in this next scene, SpongeBob meets with his friend Sandy Cheeks, who's a squirrel who lives under water in a dome filled with air.
99
Now she invites him for tea, but what SpongeBob doesn't realize is that he can't survive outside of the water.
100
As he dries out, he still tries to maintain his politeness.
101
So let's watch and you can learn some everyday phrases for sounding more polite even under pressure.
102
You know, you're the first sea critter to ever visit.
103
I can't imagine why.
104
Can I get you anything?
105
Water would be nice.
106
I'm gonna put these in a vase.
107
Take your time.
108
I'm gonna get out of here!
109
You know, you're the first sea critter to ever visit!
110
Critter is an informal word referring to a wild animal.
111
So a sea critter refers to any marine creature, like a fish, a crab, or a sponge.
112
I can't imagine why!
113
Literally, this means I really don't know the reason.
114
But SpongeBob is saying it sarcastically.
115
Of course there's a reason why no one visits Sandy.
116
Sea creatures can't survive long outside of water.
117
Real quick, according to YouTube, about half of you have not yet subscribed to our channel, and I can't imagine why.
118
It's a great free way that you can support us.
119
I'll tell you what, I'll make you a deal.
120
You subscribe to us, and in return, we'll continue working hard to bring you fun lessons like this one with your favorite series,
121
like SpongeBob, so that you can reach your goal understanding fast speaking natives without getting lost, without missing jokes, and without subtitles.
122
Alright, let's learn a practical polite expression you can use in your everyday speech.
123
Can I get you anything?
124
In the US, as in many other cultures, it's a nice gesture to offer your guests something to eat or drink.
125
Even if you don't expect them to say yes, it shows hospitality and thoughtfulness.
126
So, can I get you anything is a polite way to offer someone something.
127
SpongeBob's response with a conditional phrase, would be nice, also adds extra politeness and is a great one for you to keep in mind.
128
For example, if you're at a friend's house and they offer you a slice of cake, you could respond, that would be lovely.
129
Let's check out another example, and also pay attention to the polite way he turns down the offer.
130
A vase is a container like this used for holding flowers.
131
By the way, there are two ways you can pronounce this word.
132
It's usually pronounced vase in American English and vase in British English.
133
I'm gonna put these in a vase.
134
Take your time!
135
What do you think take your time means?
136
Be as quick as possible?
137
See how much time it takes you?
138
Don't be in a hurry.
139
Take your time is another polite phrase meaning don't rush or there's no hurry.
140
It's often used to reassure someone that they can go at their own pace without feeling pressured or stressed.
141
You might hear this phrase in many situations.
142
A cashier might say it to a customer who's still looking for their wallet.
143
A teacher could say it to a student who's struggling with an answer.
144
Or a friend might say it when waiting for you to get ready.
145
Now on the final phrase we hear from a panicky Spongebob trying to escape the dry air, there is a ton of connected speech.
146
Listen again.
147
First off, you might already know that natives usually smash got and two together into gotta.
148
When we have a T between two vowel sounds, it becomes a flap T, which sounds like a soft D.
149
For example, Americans call butter butter.
150
So, got to sounds like gotta.
151
As natives often do, SpongeBob dropped the auxiliary verb have.
152
So, we just hear I gotta.
153
Then we have two more flap Ts.
154
Get out of morphs into get out of.
155
So altogether it sounds like I gotta get out of here.
156
Now repeat after SpongeBob.
157
Hey, I just heard this funny story about the guy who created Notion.
158
You know, the popular productivity app that everyone uses?
159
Well Ivan Zhao is originally from China, but get this, he actually learned English with Spongebob.
160
Isn't that awesome?
161
Another stat or story I heard is that you learned English by watching Spongebob Squarepants.
162
Is that real?
163
Yeah, it's real.
164
I moved to Canada pretty late, 16 years ago.
165
What I learned is, yeah, in China you can learn English, but it's typically just grammar and doing exams.
166
What you're missing is the context, the culture, so you have to watch Spongebob or Simpsons to get a sense of humor, essentially.
167
I love how he mentioned that cartoons like Spongebob and Simpsons were actually his secret weapon for understanding the jokes.
168
Now, if you're nodding your head and you're thinking, yeah, that's totally me as well, I miss like half the jokes, then I have something to share with you that you're going to love.
169
Our RealLife English app is literally a game changer for understanding advanced English and English speaking culture.
170
Trust me, I've learned six languages myself and not having the words that you need is a huge barrier to understanding natives.
171
Total conversation killer.
172
Well, our vocabulary flashcards use an innovative technology
173
that works like magic to help you to understand the expressions you actually need forever.
174
Seriously, the expressions like have mercy on me, Critter, and I can't imagine why, will stick in your brain like superglue.

180
Trust me, your future English speaking self is going to thank you.
181
And now let's get ready to laugh with an art class taught by Squidward.
182
Alright, SpongeBob, pay close attention.
183
Look at your marble.
184
Visualize the sculpture within.
185
Then gently.
186
How's this, Squidward?
187
It's beautiful!
188
Uh, I mean, uh, this isn't a sculpture.
189
A good sculpture takes...
190
more time!
191
You can't just sculpt willy-nilly.
192
You gotta go by the book, follow the rules, otherwise you'll never get past amateur hour here.
193
Besides, you got the nose wrong.
194
There.
195
Now it's art.
196
Alright, let's break down the vocabulary.
197
Now pay close attention to my explanations.
198
Alright, SpongeBob, pay close attention.
199
Look at your marble.
200
Visualize the sculpture within.
201
Then, gently.
202
To pay close attention means to listen or watch very carefully.
203
It's something a teacher might tell his students before explaining something important, just like I did a moment ago.
204
Then, this hard stone we see here is marble.
205
It's often used for sculptures, statues, and also kitchen countertops.
206
By the way, famous sculptures, like Michelangelo's David, were made for marble.
207
When you visualize something, you might imagine it in your mind.
208
So Squidward is saying here that SpongeBob should look at this piece of marble
209
and imagine what type of sculpture he can create.
210
Lucy focus on what you need to do visualize your success your success look at your marvel visualize the sculpture with him
211
a Sculpture is a piece of art made by shaping
212
or carving materials like stone or clay into something beautiful
213
and the verb to sculpt Describes the action of creating a sculpture for example
214
Michelangelo sculpted the famous statue of David from marble.
215
The word gently means doing something carefully, softly, and without force.
216
It comes from the word gentle, which means kind or mild.
217
You might hear gently in everyday situations too.
218
Close the door gently, don't slam it.
219
Wash the shirt gently, be careful not to damage it.
220
And of course, you can speak to someone gently.
221
Check out this example from The Beauty and the Beast.
222
Please attempt to be a gentleman.
223
But she is being so difficult.
224
Gently, gently.
225
Will you come down to dinner?
226
No. Hmm?
227
Ah, suave, genteel.
228
It would give me great pleasure if you would join me for dinner.
229
Then SpongeBob excitedly shows his work and asks.
230
How's this is a simple way to ask for feedback.
231
You can use it anytime you want someone's opinion on something you're doing or making.
232
Imagine you're preparing a presentation for an important meeting.
233
After creating your slides, you show them to a coworker and ask, how's this?
234
Hoping they'll give you feedback before you present it to your boss or team.
235
Uh, I mean, uh, this isn't a sculpture.
236
A good sculpture takes.. more time.
237
You can't just sculpt willy-nilly, you gotta go buy the book!
238
Willy-nilly means doing something without a plan or carelessly.
239
I'm friends with her.
240
Really?
241
Well then perhaps you can tell me why for centuries only a male heir can be crowned.
242
But now this?
243
I mean, this kingdom has rules and to change them willy-nilly...
244
Herman, you're leaning out the window again.
245
Stop tempting fate.
246
You can't just sculp willy-nilly.
247
You gotta go by the book.
248
Now, the opposite of doing something willy-nilly is to go by the book, which means to follow the rules exactly and not improvise.
249
The canon of yours is against regulations.
250
In this department, we go by the book.
251
Follow the rules, otherwise you'll never get past amateur hour here.
252
So an amateur is someone who does something because they love it, not because it's their job.
253
They might not be a total expert yet, but they're passionate and learning as they go.
254
Now have you ever heard the expression amateur hour?
255
Amateur hour is a slang expression used when something feels unprofessional or low quality, it's being handled by beginners rather than by experienced people.
256
Check out this funny example from the Goldbergs.
257
David Sirota isn't funny, he's ridiculous, always dancing in the halls and talking trash at gym.
258
And this bit with Mr. Woodburn, amateur hour, everyone knows making poots is cheap.
259
Ah yeah, great job guys.
260
Now it's time for your test.
261
So we're going to watch those three hilariously nostalgic clips again without subtitles.
262
And to up the Annie, which means to add an extra challenge for you, we're going to give you some quiz questions.
263
Let's do this.
264
CHOCOLATE!
265
No, no, no, no, no!
266
Please don't hurt us!
267
What could you say if you're asking someone not to harm you?
268
Have mercy, don't hurt me, spare me.
269
You know, you're the first sea critter to ever visit!
270
I can't imagine why!
271
When Spongebob says, I can't imagine why, what does he really mean?
272
What does it mean to take your time?
273
Be as quick as possible, see how much time it takes you, don't be in a hurry.
274
All right, SpongeBob, pay close attention.
275
Look at your marble.
276
Visualize the sculpture within.
277
Then gently.
278
Find the synonym for the word visualize.
279
Ignore.
280
Imagine.
281
Identify.
282
Just sculp willy-nilly, you gotta go buy the book!
283
Can you explain willy-nilly in your own words?
284
Follow the rules!
285
Otherwise you'll never get past amateur hour here.
286
Besides, you got the nose wrong.
287
There!
288
Now it's art!
289
Which of the following phrases is closest in meaning to amateur hour?
290
Excellent work, complete mess, focused training. So that's a wrap!
291
Don't let all the great expressions

296
Happy birthday, Brittany!
297
How do you want to celebrate?
298
Do you want me to sing your birthday song?
299
Or do you want me to shoot Sideshow Bob out of a cannon?
300
The cannon!
301
The cannon!
302
The cannon!
303
The cannon!
304
The cannon!
305
Ha ha ha!
306
You're doomed, Sideshow Bob.
307
I know we haven't had much luck shooting you out of this cannon, but maybe that's because we haven't used enough gunpowder.

- Звуки «th»: altogether /ɔl.tuˈɡɛð.ɚ/, thoughtfulness /ˈθɔt.f(ə)l.nəs/
- Звуки «sh» и «zh»: rush /ɹʌʃ/, explanation /ˌɛkspləˈneɪʃən/, essentially /ɪˈsɛnʃəli/, trash /tɹæʃ/, presentation /ˌpɹɛzn̩ˈteɪʃn̩/
- Длинные слова — следите за ударением: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, interactive /ˌɪn.tɚˈæk.tɪv/, naturally /ˈnæt͡ʃ.(ə.)ɹə.li/, ridiculous /ɹɪˈdɪk.jə.ləs/, explanation /ˌɛkspləˈneɪʃən/
Звуки, трудные для русскоязычных:
- /w/ — губы округлены, это не /v/: willow /ˈwɪloʊ/, wallet /ˈwɑl.ət/, quiz /kwɪz/, squirrel /ˈskwɪ.ɹ(ə)l/, suave /swɑv/
- /h/ — лёгкий выдох, а не русское «х»: hurry /ˈhʌ.ɹi/, handmade /ˈhændˌmeɪd/, harm /hɑːm/, household /ˈhaʊshoʊld/, hilarious /hɪˈlɛə.ɹi.əs/
- Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/, handmade /ˈhændˌmeɪd/, interactive /ˌɪn.tɚˈæk.tɪv/, subscribe /səbˈskɹaɪb/, verb /vɝb/

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.
