26
Hey, Ethan.
27
Our English teacher asked us to talk about our families for tomorrow's class.
28
I thought we could practice together.
29
Great idea.
30
Talking about family is always interesting.
31
Do you come from a big family, Nora?
32
Not really.
33
I have a small family.
34
Just my parents, my older brother, and me.
35
What about you?
36
My family is kind of big.
37
I have two sisters and one younger brother, so we're five kids in total.
38
Wow, that's a lot.
39
Is it noisy at home?
40
Oh, totally.
41
My house is never quiet.
42
Someone is always talking, laughing, or arguing about something.
43
That sounds fun, though.
44
Are you close to your siblings?
45
Yeah, pretty close.
46
My older sister is like my second mom.
47
She's very responsible.
48
My younger brother, on the other hand, is always playing video games.
49
That reminds me of my brother.
50
He loves games, too.
51
He's studying computer science now, so at least it's kind of useful.
52
That's cool.
53
What do your parents do?
54
My mom is a nurse, and my dad is a chef.
55
They both work long hours, but they love what they do.
56
A chef?
57
That's awesome.
58
So you must eat delicious food all the time.
59
Well, sometimes.
60
But at home, he likes to rest.
61
He says he cooks enough at work.
62
I can imagine.
63
My dad is a teacher, and my mom works from home as a graphic designer.
64
Nice.
65
So she designs logos and stuff like that?
66
Exactly.
67
She's very creative.
68
I think I got my artistic side from her.
69
That's so cool.
70
Are your grandparents still around?
71
Yes.
72
My grandparents live in Florida.
73
We visit them every summer.
74
They love warm weather.
75
That's sweet.
76
I don't see my grandparents very often because they live in the south of Italy, but we talk on video calls every weekend.
77
That's nice.
78
Technology makes it easier to stay connected.
79
Totally.
80
Do you have family traditions?
81
Yes.
82
Every Sunday we have lunch together, all of us.
83
My mom cooks, my dad plays music, and everyone talks at the same time.
84
It's chaotic but fun.
85
That sounds like my family during Christmas.
86
Lots of noise and food.
87
Family gatherings are the best part of the year, aren't they? For sure.
88
It's when everyone is happy and relaxed.
89
Yeah.
90
Sometimes I complain about my siblings, but I can't imagine life without them.
91
Me too.
92
Family can be crazy, but they're always there for you.
93
Exactly.
94
Even when they drive you mad. So true.
95
By the way, how do you usually describe your family in English?
96
Do you use words like close -knit or big family?
97
I usually say we are close because we talk a lot and help each other.
98
What about yours?
99
I'd say my family is loud but loving.
100
There's always noise, but there's also a lot of care.
101
That's a perfect description.
102
Oh, and what about pets?
103
Do you have any?
104
Yes, we have a dog named Max.
105
He's part of the family too.
106
I love dogs.
107
We used to have one when I was little.
108
His name was Bruno.
109
That's a cute name.
110
Pets really make a house feel like home, don't they?
111
Absolutely.
112
They bring so much joy.
113
So, let's sum it up.
114
We've got brothers, sisters… parents grandparents and even pets that's a full family picture true
115
and now we have everything ready for tomorrow's presentation great teamwork
116
nora talking about your family is always a nice way to practice english
117
and share who you are i agree it's personal
118
and fun thanks for helping me practice anytime see you in class tomorrow see you ethan today's dialogue between nora
119
and Ethan was full of natural expressions about family.
120
It's such an important topic because everyone loves to talk about their family,
121
and it's a great way to connect with others in English.
122
That's right.
123
It's also a good topic to practice grammar like the present simple and possessives.
124
For example, my mom is a nurse or my brother loves video games.
125
Let's go through the main sentences and vocabulary from their conversation.
126
Phrase 1.
127
Do you come from a big family?
128
This is a very common question in English.
129
Do you come from a big family? means do you have many relatives or siblings?
130
Yes, and you can answer in different ways.
131
For example, yes, I have three brothers.
132
Or, no, my family is small, just my parents and me.
133
It's a friendly way to start a personal conversation.
134
Phrase two.
135
Are you close to your siblings?
136
The word close here means emotionally close, not close in distance.
137
So if you say, I'm close to my sister, it means you have a good relationship and talk often.
138
Right.
139
And siblings means brothers and sisters together.
140
Instead of saying, do you get along with your brother and sister?
141
You can simply say, are you close to your siblings?
142
Phrase three.
143
My dad is a teacher and my mom works from home.
144
This is a great example of how to describe what your parents do.
145
You can say, my dad works as a driver or my mom is a nurse.
146
It's simple and natural.
147
You can also talk about other relatives the same way.
148
My uncle is retired.
149
Or, my cousin studies at university.
150
These sentences are easy but very useful for daily conversations.
151
Phrase 5.
152
We have lunch together every Sunday.
153
This shows a family tradition.
154
In English, you can use the present simple to talk about habits or routines.
155
Yes, you can say, we visit my grandparents every weekend, or we always eat dinner together.
156
These sentences help you describe your family lifestyle.
157
Phrase 5.
158
Family can be crazy, but they're always there for you.
159
This is such a beautiful line from the dialogue.
160
They're always there for you means they always support you, no matter what happens.
161
Exactly.
162
It's a very emotional expression that native speakers use a lot.
163
You can also say, my family supports me, or I can always count on them.
164
Let's look at some key vocabulary words from today's episode.
165
1. Siblings, brothers and sisters.
166
Example, I have two siblings, one brother and one sister.
167
2. Close, having a good relationship.
168
Example, I'm very close to my parents.
169
Three, extended family, the larger family group, including aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents.
170
Example, my extended family gets together every Christmas.
171
Four, retired, when someone has stopped working, usually because of age.
172
Example, my grandfather is retired now.
173
Five, get along, to have a good relationship with someone.
174
Example, I get along well with my sister.
175
Six, tradition, a custom or habit that families repeat regularly.
176
Example, it's our family tradition to have dinner together on Sundays.
177
Seven, pet, an animal you keep at home for companionship.
178
Example, we have a dog named Max.
179
He's part of the family.
180
In American culture, people often talk about their families in casual conversations.
181
It's a safe and friendly topic, just like talking about work or hobbies.
182
That's true.
183
Americans like to share stories about family traditions, holidays, or funny childhood memories.
184
It helps create connection and trust.
185
Also, many Americans move away from home for work or study, so they often mention how they stay in touch – by phone calls,
186
text messages, or video chats.
187
Yes, and it's very common to hear people say things like, I miss my family, or I'm visiting my parents this weekend.
188
Those phrases show warmth and affection.
189
Another point is that the concept of family in the U .S.
190
can include more than blood relatives, Sometimes, very close friends are considered part of the family.
191
You might hear people say, she's like family to me.
192
That's a lovely expression.
193
It shows that family is not just about connection by blood, but also by love and care.
194
And finally, pets are a big part of American families.
195
Many people call their dogs and cats fur babies or say, he's part of the family.
196
Exactly.
197
So when you talk about your family in English, don't forget to include everyone who's important to you, even your pets.
198
That's it for our breakdown today.
199
Now you know how to describe your family, talk about relationships, and use the right vocabulary.
200
Keep practicing these expressions, and next time someone asks you about your family, you'll know exactly what to say.
201
Now that we've gone through the dialogue, let's practice some model sentences.
202
These examples will help you talk about your family naturally in English.
203
Yes, and don't worry if you forget a word.
204
We'll show you simple alternatives that you can use in real conversations.
205
Describing your family.
206
You can start with, I have a small family.
207
Or, I come from a big family.
208
If you forget the word small or big, you can just say, there are four people in my family.
209
Or, my family has many people.
210
That's simple and clear.
211
You can also say, I have one brother and one sister.
212
Or, I'm an only child.
213
Talking about parents.
214
To describe what your parents do, you can say, my mom is a teacher.
215
My dad works in an office.
216
If you forget their jobs, you can use a simple version.
217
My mom works a lot.
218
My dad has his own business.
219
Those sentences are great when you don't remember specific words.
220
Talking about siblings.
221
You can say, I'm close to my sister or my brother is older than me.
222
And if you forget the word older or younger, you can describe it like this.
223
My brother is not a kid anymore.
224
Or my sister is still in school.
225
That's a nice way to keep the conversation going even if your vocabulary is limited.
226
Talking about traditions.
227
When you want to talk about what your family likes to do together, you can say, we have lunch together every Sunday.
228
We celebrate birthdays with a big dinner.
229
Or simply, we like spending time together.
230
We always eat together on weekends.
231
Those are very natural and easy to remember.
232
Talking about relationships.
233
You can say, I get along well with my parents.
234
Or, we argue sometimes but we love each other.
235
If you forget get along, you can say, we have a good relationship.
236
Or, we are very close.
237
Talking about pets.
238
Don't forget pets.
239
They're part of the family, too.
240
You can say, we have a dog named Max.
241
Or, I used to have a cat when I was little.
242
And if you forget the word for the animal, you can point and say, we have one of these at home.
243
It's very cute.
244
That's a good strategy when you're still learning vocabulary.
245
The most important thing is to keep your sentences simple and natural.
246
Don't worry about making mistakes.
247
People will understand you.
248
Exactly.
249
The more you talk about your family, the more comfortable you'll feel using these expressions.
250
Listen to the dialogue again, repeat some sentences, and try using them to describe your own family.
251
Keep practicing a little every day.
252
Soon, you'll be able to talk about your family in English with confidence.
253

342
Anytime.
343
See you in class tomorrow.
344
See you, Ethan.
345
That was a really nice episode.
346
Today, we learned how to talk about our families in English, something that everyone can do, no matter where they're from.
347
Yes, we learned useful expressions like, I'm close to my sister, my dad is retired, and we have lunch together every Sunday.
348
These are simple but very natural ways to describe your family life.
349
We also talked about vocabulary, such as siblings, traditions, extended family,
350
and pets, and learned how to use them in real conversations.
351
Exactly.
352
And remember, talking about your family is not just good English practice.
353
It's also a great way to connect with people and share your story.
354
You don't need to use complicated words.
355
Just be natural.
356
For example, you can say, I have one brother, my mom works a lot, or we're a small family.
357
That's right.
358
The goal is to communicate clearly and show emotion.
359
Family is a universal topic.
360
Everyone can relate to it.
361
We hope this episode helps you feel more confident when describing your family in English.
362
Keep practicing the sentences you learned today, and don't forget to listen to this episode again to review pronunciation and rhythm.
363
We'd love to hear about your family, too!
364
Tell us in the comments, how many people are in your family, and what do you like to do together?
365
And don't forget to subscribe to our channel and share this episode with your friends who are learning English.

วิธีฝึกกับวิดีโอนี้
- ฟังวิดีโอให้จบหนึ่งรอบโดยยังไม่ต้องพูด แล้วจดคำที่ยังไม่รู้จัก
- เริ่มที่ความเร็ว 0.75× พูดตามทีละประโยค แล้วกลับไปใช้ความเร็วปกติเมื่อเริ่มคล่อง
- อัดเสียงตัวเองแล้วเทียบกับต้นฉบับ โดยสังเกตคำอย่าง sibling, pet, connect เป็นพิเศษ
