ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: Learn English with TV shows: Friends - Joey Finds Out!

Hey, Mr. Bing?

That hotel you stayed at called.

Said someone left an eyelash curler in your room.

In this clip, Chandler has just gotten back from a work trip and Joey suspects he's hiding something.

Keep watching to see what Joey finally finds out.

Damn Rolos.

Hey, you're back.

Hey.

How was your conference?

It was terrible.

I fought with my colleagues the entire time.

Are you kidding with this?

So your weekend was a total bust?

No. I got to see Donald Trump waiting for an elevator.

Hi.

Hey, you're back too.

Yeah.

Jando, can I talk to you outside for just a second?

Hey, how was your chef thing?

It was awful.

I guess some people just don't appreciate really good food.

Well, maybe it was the kind of food that tasted good at first, but then made everybody vomit and have diarrhea.

Chandler?

Monica?

Hey.

Hey, Mr. Bing.

That, uh, hotel you stayed at called.

Said someone left an eyelash curler in your room.

Yes, that was mine.

Because I figured you hooked up with some girl and she left it there.

Yes, that would have made more sense.

You know, I don't even feel like I know you anymore, man.

On to part two.

Damn, Rolos.

Damn is frequently used to express anger or frustration.

It's very informal, so be careful where you use it.

Some people consider it a bad word, so be really aware when and where you use this word.

You better look cute in this picture and no one's gonna want you.

Do something with your damn paws!

Whoa, whoa, Sarge, relax.

In this clip from Friends, Chandler is quite frustrated because Joey leaves Rolo's around everywhere.

Rolo's is just a type of chocolate with a delicious creamy filling.

I don't know why Chandler is so angry.

It's so nice to find random chocolate.

Damn Rolo's.

Hey, you're back.

Hey, how was your conference?

That was terrible.

Verb to be plus the preposition back create the idiom which means to return.

This is perhaps the most iconic English movie quote.

I'll be back.

If you want to understand famous movie quotes, make sure you check out this video right here.

So Joey notices that Chandler has returned from his trip.

He was at a conference, which is typically a large formal meeting to talk about something on a specific topic.

Here's a pronunciation tip so you can sound like a native speaker omit the first e sound.

So it's not conference, it's conference.

Textbooks don't teach this.

Hey, you're back.

Hey, how was your conference?

That was terrible.

I fought with my colleagues are you kidding with this?

Fought is the past tense form of the verb fight, but it doesn't refer to a physical fight.

In this context, it's a synonym for argue, basically fighting but with words.

Like when Chandler and Monica had a serious fight about something really dumb.

Are you mocking me?

No, I'm not mocking you or your beautiful game.

We use the idiom, are you kidding?

When expressing shock, dismay, or irritation.

Chandler is clearly irritated about Joey and his chocolate addiction.

I can't relate.

That was terrible.

I fought with my colleagues the entire time.

Are you kidding with this?

Uh, so your weekend was a total bust?

Uh, no. I got to see Donald Trump waiting for an elevator.

Bust is a fun little slang word that means failure.

If it's a bust, it's a failure.

It's a pop.

I pushed my husband into law school.

That was a bust.

So, Joey is asking if Chandler's weekend was a failure.

And it wasn't because Chandler got to see Donald Trump.

Got to means he had the opportunity to see this public figure.

So if you get to do something, you have the opportunity to do something.

Well, I get to travel into space.

Uh, so your weekend was a total bust?

Uh, no. I got to see Donald Trump waiting for an elevator.

Hi.

Hey, you're back too.

Yeah.

Um, Jando, can I talk to you outside for just a second?

Hey, how was your chef thing?

Awful.

When you hear the word outside, you probably think about an outdoor setting like a forest or a field,

but it can actually refer to any place beyond the enclosed place that you are currently in.

In this case, Monica's referring to the hall right outside their apartment.

Joey then asks about Monica's chef thing.

We use the general noun thing more commonly when speaking than in writing.

And it's mostly used to refer to physical objects.

100

But we also use thing to refer to actions, ideas, or events.

101

It's used when we don't know, don't remember, or we don't want to specify what we're talking about.

102

Are you on a date?

103

No, it's.. it's a work thing.

104

Hi.

105

Hey, you're back too.

106

Yeah.

107

Um, Jenner, can I talk to you outside for just a second?

108

Hey, how was your chef thing?

109

It was awful.

110

I guess some people just don't appreciate really good food.

111

Yes, when used at the beginning of a sentence has a similar meaning to believe or suppose.

112

Okay, so I guess this is, uh, goodbye then.

113

Oh, no, no, it's not goodbye.

114

I'm not leaving until you get on that plane.

115

Back to our original clip, Monica is saying that she believes some people don't appreciate good food.

116

Appreciate means to value or admire somebody or something.

117

I think we're spoiled because we don't appreciate the things that we have.

118

So Monica is just using an allegory to express that Chandler doesn't value her the way he should.

119

Let's see how he responds.

120

I guess some people just don't appreciate really good food.

121

Well, maybe it was the kind of food that tasted good at first, but then made everybody vomit and have diarrhea.

122

first is the same as at the beginning or in the initial stages.

123

For instance, at first, when I started learning German, I was overwhelmed with all the different resources out there,

124

especially because I like to immerse myself in the language.

125

The problem was I already knew that the captions on YouTube and Netflix are not reliable.

126

Not even for English.

127

I can't even imagine for German.

128

But then I found FluentU.

I guess some people just don't appreciate really good food.

138

Well, maybe it was the kind of food that tasted good at first, but then made everybody vomit and have diarrhea.

139

Vomit and diarrhea are kinds of disruptions of the digestive system.

140

Let's just say that vomit is what comes out from the top and diarrhea is what comes out from down below,

141

both in liquid forms.

142

Well, maybe it was the kind of food that tasted good at first, but then made everybody vomit and have diarrhea.

143

Handler?

144

Monica?

145

Hey.

146

Hey, Mr. Bing?

147

That, That hotel you stayed at called.

148

Said someone left an eyelash curler in your room.

149

Mr. is just a way of formally addressing men.

150

If you want to know more about formally addressing people, check out this video we did right here.

151

really important to know how to address people in formal situations.

152

You don't want to accidentally be rude.

153

If you leave something in a particular place, then you let it remain there when you go away.

154

Like in this case where the eyelash curler remained at the hotel.

155

This is an eyelash curler.

156

No, it isn't a torture device, although sometimes it can feel like one.

157

Ouch.

158

It's a tool used to curl eyelashes.

159

Hey, Mr. Bing?

160

That hotel you stayed at called.

161

Said someone left an eyelash curler in your room.

162

Yes, that was mine.

163

Because I figured you hooked up with some girl and she left it there.

164

Here, cuz is just an informal version of the conjunction because.

165

Figured comes from an also informal word which means to think, consider, or expect something.

166

I always figured you just thought it was Monica's geeky older brother.

167

I did.

168

Oh.

169

So, back to our original scene, Joey thought that Chandler hooked up with a girl.

170

Hookup is an informal verb that means to form a brief romantic relationship with someone or more directly,

171

to spend the night with someone, if you know what I mean.

172

Are Anne and Peter gonna hook up?

173

I'm not telling you.

174

Yes, that was mine.

175

Because I figured you hooked up with some girl and she left it there.

176

Yes, that would have made more sense.

177

You know, I don't even feel like I know you anymore, man.

178

If something makes sense, then that means it's rational, comprehensible, and coherent.

179

So in this scene, it's obviously more rational that the eyelash curler belongs to a girl than to Chandler.

180

It's obviously a lie and that's why Joey says, I don't even feel like I know you anymore, man.

181

Chandler has been lying and sneaking around and Joey is obviously finding Chandler's different behavior strange.

182

Yes, that would have made more sense.

183

You know, I don't even feel like I know you anymore, man.

186

Hey.

187

Hey.

188

Hey.

189

Oh, hey, Monica.

190

I heard you saw Donald Trump at your convention.

191

Yeah.

192

Yeah, I saw him waiting for an elevator.

193

Hey Rach, can I borrow your eyelash curler?

194

I think I lost mine.

195

Yeah, it's in the bathroom.

196

Can I talk to you for a second?

197

We're so stupid.

198

Do you know what's going on in there?

199

They're trying to take Joey.

200

Hey.

201

Hey.

202

Oh, hey, Monica.

203

I heard you saw Donald Trump at your convention.

204

Yeah, so I'm waiting for an elevator.

205

Heard is the verb here in the past tense.

206

In this case, its definition is to be told or be informed about something.

207

So, Phoebe was told by someone that Monica also saw Donald Trump.

208

What I want you to notice here is the pronunciation of the verb waiting.

209

Notice how Monica omits the G sound.

210

Yeah, so I'm waiting for an elevator.

211

This is extremely common in spoken English and it'll help you sound more like a native.

212

You can either say waitin' or waitin'.

213

I heard you saw Donald Trump at your convention.

214

Yeah, so I'm waiting for an elevator.

215

Hey, Rach, can I borrow your eyelash curler?

216

I think I lost mine.

217

Yeah, it's in the bathroom.

218

Borrow is when you take something or use something that belongs to someone else, but you have the intention of returning it.

219

If not, then that's stealing.

220

May I borrow someone's textbook, please?

221

Thank you.

222

Many people that are learning English tend to confuse the verbs borrow and lend.

223

Lend is when you give something to someone and then they're the ones that will return the object to you.

224

In other words, if you have it, then you lend it.

225

If you don't have it, then you borrow it.

226

So, what happened was that Joey linked the fact

227

that the eyelash curler that was found in Chandler's hotel room actually belonged to Monica.

228

This indicates that they were in fact together.

229

So, he freaks out.

230

Hey, Rach, can I borrow your eyelash curler?

231

I think I lost mine.

232

Yeah, it's in the back.

233

Oh!

234

Oh!

235

Oh!

236

Oh!

237

Joey, can I talk to you for a second?

238

Oh!

239

Oh!

240

Oh!

241

We're so stupid.

242

Do you know what's going on in there?

243

They're trying to take Joey.

244

What's going on is just a different way of saying way of saying what's happening.

245

In general, take is a verb that means to remove someone or something from a specific place.

246

So Phoebe thought that Chander and Monica were taking Joey away from their own group.

247

What she means by this is that in previous episodes,

248

Phoebe, Rachel, and Joey have formally debated forming their own group of friends.

249

Because of Ross's then-fiancée, Emily, did not want him to continue seeing Rachel.

250

So Phoebe thinks that Tander and Monica are trying to get or steal Joey to form their own group of friends.

251

We're so stupid.

252

Do you know what's going on in there?

253

They're trying to take Joey.

254

Damn Rolos.

255

Hey, you're back.

256

Hey.

257

How was your conference?

258

It was terrible.

259

I fought with my colleagues the entire time.

260

Are you kidding with this?

261

So your weekend was a total bust?

262

No. I got to see Donald Trump waiting for an elevator.

263

Hi.

264

Hey, you're back too.

265

Yeah.

266

Um, Jenner, can I talk to you outside for just a second?

267

Hey, how was your chef thing?

268

It was awful.

269

I guess some people just don't appreciate really good food.

270

Well, maybe it was the kind of food that tasted good at first, but then made everybody vomit and have diarrhea.

271

Handler?

272

Monaghan?

273

Hey.

274

Hey, Mr. Bing.

275

That, uh, hotel you stayed at called.

276

said someone left an eyelash curler in your room.

277

Yes, that was mine.

278

Because I figured you hooked up with some girl and she left it there.

279

Yes, that would have made more sense.

280

You know, I don't even feel like I know you anymore, man.

281

Hey.

282

Hey.

283

Hey.

284

Oh, hey, Monica.

285

I heard you saw Donald Trump at your convention.

286

Yeah, so I'm waiting for an elevator.

287

Hey Rach, can you borrow your eyelash curler?

288

I think I lost mine.

289

Yeah, it's in the back.

290

Joey, can I talk to you for a second?

291

Hold on!

292

Hold on!

293

Hold on!

294

Hold on!

295

Hold on!

296

We're so stupid.

297

Do you know what's going on in there?

298

They're trying to take Joey.

299

Now, let's break down a hilarious friends clip where Rachel

300

and Phoebe try to look for Monica's Christmas presents and they end up breaking Chandler.

301

Yes, you can also break people, but no, not literally.

302

Don't know what break means here?

303

Go watch it to find out.
