1
English Speaking Course Can you turn on the light?
2
Sis, I can't find my skateboard helmet.
3
Did you see it in here?
4
It's probably hiding from the smell of your sports shoes.
5
Use your eyes!
6
I can't.
7
It's too dark here.
8
I don't even have my phone with me.
9
Can you open the light, please?
10
It's 9pm.
11
How is opening a window gonna help you, genius?
12
Give you moonlight?
13
No, not the window the light switch.
14
so I can see.
15
Then say, "Can you turn on the light?" You only open a door or a window, Logan.
16
Turn on is for machines and electricity.
17
Like the TV, the computer, the light.
18
Got it?
19
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
20
Can you just open the light, teacher Maya?
21
Nope, not until you say it, right?
22
What the.. fine.
23
Maya, my beautiful sister, can you please turn on the light?
24
there A thank you would be nice, you know.
25
Thank you, sis.
26
Now I can see...
27
Where is that helmet?
28
I still wonder what would happen if you tried to open the light, though.
29
Yeah, well, I still wonder where my helmet is.
30
you I'd like to get a haircut.
31
Amy, you've been looking at yourself in the mirror for 15 minutes?
32
What's wrong?
33
Ugh!
34
I want to cut my hair, Steph.
35
Just look at it!
36
A bird's nest.
37
Oh?
38
Wow!
39
Little Amy is getting brave!
40
Okay, wait right here.
41
You want to cut your hair, right?
42
Here you go!
43
Let's see what you can do!
44
What?
45
No, I don't want to cut it myself.
46
I want a hairdresser to cut it.
47
At a salon.
48
See?
49
When you say, "I want to cut my hair," it sounds like you will do it.
50
Which, by the way, is a very bad idea.
51
Remember when I tried to cut my bangs?
52
You!
53
Then, how do I say it right?
54
If you're talking about the idea, just say, "I need to get my hair cut." Or if you're at the salon,
55
"Hi, I'd like to get a haircut, please." Easy!
56
Ooh, get my hair cut is like...
57
Me getting help.
58
Not me holding the scissors.
59
Yeah, it means someone else does it for you.
60
Like, get my car washed.
61
Okay, got it.
62
So, um, sis, Since you are so smart and you have a car, Can you take me to the salon, please?
63
Finished.
64
Ah, nice.
65
The rain is finished, Nella.
66
Really?
67
Did the rain finish its work and go home saying, My job here is done?
68
Huh?
69
No!
70
I mean, it's not falling anymore.
71
No more rain.
72
Yeah, so we say the rain stopped or it stopped raining.
73
What's wrong with finished?
74
That it means end, right?
75
Yes, but we usually say "finished" for things we do.
76
Like, "I'm finished with my lunch." Hmm, so I could say I finished my book, right?
77
Yeah, rain is not something we do, so it stops by itself.
78
People don't finish it.
79
Ah, okay, Hanso.
80
The rain stopped.
81
Oh, time's up.
82
Let's go back to work.
83
Why is it going up?
84
I thought there was already a clock over there.
85
No, it means the time is over.
86
So you don't have to say time is finished.
87
Ah, got it.
88
Phew, finally the meeting is finished.
89
Thomas, you did it again.
90
It's "The meeting is over." I know, I was just joking this time.
91
But thank you for the English lesson.
92
Oh, you!
93
I would prefer… I would rather...
94
I'm going to get something to drink.
95
Do you want anything, Mark?
96
Black coffee?
97
Hmm, I would prefer green tea.
98
I had too much coffee this morning.
99
Green tea?
100
Ugh, I would rather drink sock water.
101
You, Lena?
102
You would actually drink sock water?
103
Of course not.
104
I'm just saying I really don't like it.
105
Wait!
106
"I would prefer" and "I would rather" "Don't they mean the same thing?" Or are they actually different?
107
Well, both mean you want one thing more than the other.
108
The grammar is different.
109
How are they not the same?
110
I would prefer.. sounds more polite.
111
It's usually followed by a noun.
112
a thing, like tea instead of coffee.
113
Tea is the thing you want.
114
And what about the other one?
115
I would rather is more direct.
116
It goes with the verb, the action.
117
No, too.
118
I would rather leave.
119
I would rather sleep.
120
Just like that.
121
Yep, and it sounds stronger, like you really mean it.
122
I would rather drink sock water than green tea.
123
"Okay, I get it.
124
Loud and clear.
125
You don't like green tea.
126
I couldn't care less.
127
And then David liked all my old photos from 2018. Can you believe it?
128
Sadie!
129
You guys broke up like Five months ago, Just let it go.
130
Yeah, you're right.
131
I could care less.
132
So you're saying you haven't moved on because you still care about him?
133
Huh, no!
134
That's not what I'm trying to say!
135
Well, that's what it sounds like.
136
If you could care less, it means you do care a little.
137
What?
138
Really?
139
Oh no no no!
140
Girl, what you need to say is, I couldn't care less.
141
It means you don't care at all.
142
Jade, I've said it wrong my whole life.
143
The embarrassment.
144
Now you know.
145
So, try again, Drama Queen.
146
I couldn't care less about what he does.
147
Zero.
148
Nothing.
149
There you go.
150
That's the energy we need.
151
calm, strong, no more caring, Actually, I think he just wants me to know that he is...
152
That topic is now closed.
153
next.
154
Let's focus on what we want for dinner.
155
I didn't do anything.
156
- Leo, can you explain to me why my vase is broken?
157
The one I bought in Venice.
158
"Mom, it wasn't me.
159
I didn't do nothing." I swear, "Sweetie, I want to believe you, but listen to me for a second.
160
I really didn't do nothing, mom.
161
That's the problem.
162
When you say "didn't" and "nothing" together like that, it sounds like you're saying you did it.
163
that you broke the vase.
164
Wait, did I just tell you that?
165
I broke the vase?
166
I mean, I didn't.
167
Calm down, Leo.
168
Just don't use nothing after didn't.
169
The right word is "anything".
170
Oh, okay.
171
Mom, I didn't do anything.
172
Really?
173
Then who did it, Leo?
174
It was Luke.
175
He was playing soccer in the house.
176
I told him that was a bad idea.
177
Of course, it's your big brother.
178
He kicked the ball and then bam!
179
The vase broke.
180
Pieces were everywhere.
181
I can imagine that.
182
Why didn't you tell me sooner, sweetie?
183
He said, "If I tell you he won't play video games with me anymore." "I see.
184
Go get Luke for me." And tell him his lesson will be about saying,
185
"I'm sorry." Could you take a photo for me?
186
Excuse me, please.
187
Yes?
188
Hello?
189
Sorry to.. bother you.
190
This statue, it is very beautiful.
191
Yeah, it's awesome, right?
192
Tourists come here all the time.
193
Uh, yes, I want to remember this.
194
Could you make a photo for me?
195
Make a photo.
196
"Oh sorry man." I can't draw.
197
No, no drawing.
198
A photo.
199
Click, click!
200
"Oh, you want me to take a photo for you?" We don't say, "Make a photo, man." Take, not make.
201
But you make a picture.
202
In my language, it is the same word.
203
In English, it's different.
204
You take what you see with your camera, like the statue, You don't...
205
Make it like you make a cake or a plan.
206
Uh...
207
Take a photo.
208
Okay.
209
Could you take a photo for me please, with the statue?
210
You got it!
211
No problem!
212
Here you go!
213
I took a few so you can choose the best one.
214
Thank you very much.
215
You're welcome.
216
Enjoy the rest of your visit.
217
I will.
218
And I will take...
219
Many more photos today.
220
Hi Dad!
221
Hi Mom!
222
I'm home!
223
Oh, my little girl is here.
224
House school, sweetie.
225
It's great, Mom!
226
Do you need any help?
227
I'm fine.
228
Ugh, my back.
229
"Honey, are you alright?" Mom, are you okay?
230
Don't worry, Cassie.
231
I'm fine.
232
but I would be even better if someone helped me with the housework instead of lying on the sofa all day long.
233
Come on, honey.
234
It's just a little errand.
235
Oh really?
236
How would you feel doing them all day?
237
"Of course I can do that.
238
I still can be okay without you." I just need more time to chill, my dear.
239
Right, Dottie?
240
Umm...
241
Hmm?
242
Sure, you will surely be okay without me.
243
That must really be an emergency.
244
I slept like a rock.
245
What do we have for breakfast, honey?
246
Uh, where is she?
247
Dad, look at this!
248
Mom left us a message on the table.
249
What did she write there?
250
Sunshine!
251
My loves.
252
I just got a call from home about an emergency, so I need to go back for a while.
253
I'll be back later tonight.
254
In the meantime, please take care of the house and look after each other.
255
Love you both so much, Mom.
256
Well, maybe that must really be an emergency.
257
My stomach is having an emergency too.
258
Maybe your mom will leave something on the fridge.
259
Let me see.
260
Um, just raw stuff here, Dad.
261
And some eggs.
262
That's more than enough, sweetie.
263
Go brush your teeth.
264
Breakfast will be ready later.
265
Okay, Dad.
266
Now you have my life.
267
Maybe cooking isn't really my thing.
268
I'm done!
269
Are you doing well there?
270
Mmm, not really.
271
What are these, Dad?
272
Vampire's breakfast meat?
273
The cursed yolk?
274
And the bread of doom?
275
Well, maybe cooking isn't really my thing.
276
How about grabbing some instant noodles?
277
Ah, fine.
278
And you have to clean the living room later, Dad.
279
"Dad, the mess you left on the table last night." I swear, even mice could start a civilization there.
280
Alright, alright.
281
You're even bossier than your mom.
282
Mm -hmm.
283
I'm just saving the world.
284
What's going on here?
285
Are you a Messi fan or a Messi fan?
286
I'm sorry, honey.
287
I was glued to the TV screen and didn't even remember what I had done.
288
But come on, cleaning isn't that hard.
289
I'll get it done in no time.
290
Okay then.
291
I'm going to mow the grass and when I'm back, I'd better see a clean living room.
292
Don't worry, it's just like a dust to me.
293
What is going on here?
294
Why does it look even worse?
295
The floor is wet and even dirtier.
296
I don't know, honey.
297
I mopped the floor, but it somehow got messier.
298
Did you vacuum before mopping?
299
Oh?
300
We're supposed to vacuum before mopping?
301
Oh my gosh, yes!
302
Trash first, then vacuum, then mop.
303
Ah, I thought mopping was enough.
304
Can you please help me?
305
It's so hard.
306
find that.
307
Okay, I'm ready.
308
Where do we start?
309
You vacuum the floor.
310
I'll take care of the trash on the table.
311
Alright, I got it.
312
This isn't too hard, huh?
313
Exactly.
314
It's not hard if you actually do it.
315
It's even easier now.
316
Ugh, my back!
317
Are you okay, Dad?
318
Hmm.
319
Ugh, my back.
320
What's wrong, Dad?
321
Oh, nothing.
322
Are you done?
323
All done!
324
The table is spotless.
325
Great, so we're finally done with our No, no, no!
326
Not yet, Dad.
327
We still have to do the laundry and go grocery shopping.
328
What?
329
Hey, don't leave yet.
330
We see you reaching for that skip button.
331
Stay till the end.
332
It's worth it.
333
Trust us.
334
Your English will thank you.
335
Did you separate the clothes?
336
Let's see, maybe this is it?
337
What is it?
338
Are you looking for laundry liquid?
339
Yes, and I think I found it.
340
Uh, that's toilet cleaner.
341
Oh, it looks so nice.
342
I thought it was laundry liquid.
343
The real one is up there.
344
Great, let's do the laundry.
345
"Dad, did you separate the clothes?" Huh?
346
What do you mean?
347
Ah shh!
348
Do you remember your shirt that used to be white?
349
That was your artwork because you didn't separate the colors.
350
So that was my masterpiece.
351
DAD!
352
Okay, okay.
353
I'll do it now.
354
Yeah, let's get things done before mom gets home.
355
Wow, I don't know how people do so many things in one day.
356
Well, my mom does it all.
357
She cooks.
358
cleans, washes clothes, keeps the house nice, and someone still complains.
359
"Maybe I should say sorry to her." You should show her, not just say it.
360
So, can you help me with that?
361
I want to do something romantic for her.
362
You can make dinner and give her some flowers.
363
She's gonna love it.
364
But, you know, my cooking skills Yeah, right.
365
I'll give you a hand, Dad.
366
You're the best!
367
I wonder how your mom is now.
368
I hope she's doing okay right now.
369
Ah, what a beautiful day.
370
You owe me for this.
371
Phew!
372
A productive Jake today!
373
And mom is productive every day.
374
"Come on, stop teasing me.
375
I already said sorry." I'm just happy because you realize how important she is.
376
Anyway, what's on the menu today?
377
First, truffle pasta.
378
That's what your mom and I had on our very first date.
379
Ooh, someone's feeling romantic.
380
Shh, focus, Cassie.
381
Then, we're making tuna steak and barbecue chicken.
382
Finally is some fruit salad for the healthy balance.
383
Wow, Dad, you're really putting in a lot of effort.
384
Even for dishes you know you cannot cook.
385
That's why you've got me, and I'll just follow whatever you say.
386
Okay, first, boil some water for the pasta.
387
I'll handle the rest.
388
Got it.
389
Ouch!
390
My hand!
391
Oh, ghost! So hot!
392
"Dad, use a towel, not your bare hands." Oh, I'm so silly.
393
Oh, how about you come in here and chop the mushrooms into small pieces?
394
And leave that pasta to me.
395
Okay, I'll do that.
396
And you owe me for this, Dad.
397
"Yes, yes, I owe my daughter a Taylor Swift concert ticket." Awesome.
398
Let's hurry.
399
Dinner has to be ready before mom gets home.
400
And I have to be ready for my Taylor show.
401
You made it with all your heart and soul.
402
Phew!
403
Okay.
404
Romantic dinner, candles, flowers, check.
405
Everything's set.
406
I really hope your mom likes it.

409
I'm home!
410
Mommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommommomm Oh wow!

Is there some special occasion today?
413
No, Mom, it's just...
414
Dad and I wanted to make you happy.
415
Honey, welcome home.
416
I missed you so much.
417
Oh, I thought someone was doing just fine without me.
418
I finally realized how exhausting it is to take care of us and the house.
419
It's okay.
420
I do it all because I love you both.
421
So YouTube prepared all of this for me.
422
Yep, Mom, we also cleaned the whole house.
423
And we made this dinner just for you.
424
Come on, let's try it.
425
Oh, so romantic.
426
Haha.
427
These flowers are for you, my love.
428
Oh, stop it.
429
You're making me blush.
430
And I promise I'll start helping more with chores.
431
I'm sorry for being kind of lazy lately.
432
"It's fine now, honey.
433
I'm glad you understand." And thank you both for this amazing meal.
434
We hope you like it mom By the way, how's everything been while I was gone?
435
Everything's great.
436
Cassie helped me realize a lot of things while you were away.
437
I And, you look stunning tonight.
438
like you just got back from a spa.
439
Hmm...
440
Are you two hiding something from me?
441
Let's eat, Dad!
442
I'm already craving this tuna!

Why This Video Is Perfect for Learning Natural English
If you want to learn English with YouTube, this video is a gem! It captures real, everyday conversations—complete with mistakes and corrections—that mirror how people actually speak. The casual back-and-forth between siblings and friends makes it easy to relate to, and the gentle corrections feel like a friend guiding you. Plus, it’s packed with common phrases you’ll use daily, so you’re not just learning words—you’re learning how to communicate naturally.
Breaking Down the Dialogue: What Makes It Sound Real
Let’s look at a few key moments that make this conversation feel authentic:
- “Can you turn on the light?” vs. “Can you open the light?” The video teaches a crucial difference: we “turn on” electrical devices (lights, TVs) and “open” things like doors or windows. This small correction stops you from sounding awkward in real life.
- “I want to cut my hair” vs. “I want a hairdresser to cut it” The first sentence implies you’ll do it yourself, while the second clarifies you need a professional. This shows how word choice changes meaning—something native speakers do without thinking!
- “Use your eyes!” This casual, slightly playful phrase is how people talk to friends, not just in textbooks. Learning these “extra” phrases makes your speech sound friendly and natural.
Your Simple Practice Routine: Shadow Speak to Master the Dialogue
Ready to sound like a pro? Try this shadow speak routine: 1. Watch the video once to get the gist. 2. Play a 5-second clip, pause, and repeat it out loud—mimic the tone, speed, and even the pauses. This is called shadowing, and it’s one of the best ways to train your mouth and brain to speak English naturally. 3. Record yourself and compare it to the video. Notice if you’re using “turn on” instead of “open” or if your intonation matches. 4. Do this daily for 10 minutes, and you’ll start to hear a difference in how smooth your speech sounds. If you need a shadowing site to help, look for tools that let you slow down clips—they’re perfect for mastering tricky parts. Remember, shadow speech isn’t about being perfect; it’s about getting comfortable with the rhythm of English. You’ve got this!
Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
