Shadowing Practice: How Germans Define True Friendship - Learn English Speaking with Video

Janusz, what is for you a real friend?

A real friend is someone who is just in my life there.

I talk with him, I tell him things,

we plan things, we take something together,

we deal together, we sometimes sometimes sometimes we can trust ourselves.

And that's a friend.

That's a nice word.

We want to know how people define friendship.

Let's go!

What is for you a real friend?

A person, on which you can leave and enjoy still.

I would also say that you have to say that you have to be very important.

that you're a person that's grundsätzlich totally as a person.

And a friendship can also be a crisis.

What is for you a real friend?

Oh, a real friend is someone with whom I can my real self show.

I can be honest and transparent and And I don't have any fear,

this person, my real personality,

and their weakness and strength to show.

A real friend?

Oh, there are a few of them.

But those who correspond for a long time with someone and who you feel like,

I can always say something like that.

What is for you a real friend?

Good question.

I have not found that.

It's not easy, right?

No. A real friend is for me someone, who I always trust.

If anything, regardless of what it is,

whether it's something beautiful or something,

I can call this friend and call it.

And he is for me there.

Someone who can't be held to you if it's not so good,

but also someone who can have a lot of fun in all life situations.

Egal if you go to eat or go to sport or in a club or on the street,

that you feel always well and and can spend time together.

A real friend is someone who can trust everything,

who can't judge you, who can't tell you his opinion.

Oh, that you can't take it personally,

because he's the best friend and he's not bad.

He gives a good feeling and a good feeling,

that he doesn't want anything to do.

He can laugh and he can spend time together.

A real friend is for me a person,

on which I can always count on my own.

And who is always for me and who is always for me.

And I also for the friend.

For me, a friend or a friend is someone,

regardless of what problem I have,

that I can also 20 times talk about it,

that I can always talk about it,

that I can be heuling in the arm,

in the arm and that you said.

So like us.

Aww.

And how many real friends have you?

Not so many.

Three, four, five.

Really good friends.

How many real friends have you?

If I count, say three friends, I would say three.

I would say that those are true friends.

More, but more, we don't need to do that.

How many friends have you here in Berlin?

Oh, a little.

I would say three.

But I don't have any more.

How many friends have you?

I think you said that the most of the time is seven, eight.

So I have my five girls, three girls.

And then I have some,

I have two or three times in my year.

And then there are two people.

Also not more than ten.

I would say even many people.

Because I go to different topics with different friends and friends and friends.

And then there are also many stations where you want to go.

So really enge friends would I say 10.

That's a lot.

And are those people from your childhood, from your school?

Yes, I think 3 girls,

since I'm 5, with whom I'm really happy,

then from studying a couple of friends and now from the age of baby.

So from every single episode.

How many friends have you?

Wow, it's hard to say.

But I have already had a birthday.

Everything is good.

I have been at home at home.

There were really many people there.

There were probably 40-50 guests there.

And that's all my really heart-people.

people, but really.

And there are people from wide,

from a lot of times,

a friend from Griechenland was completely surprised.

We were completely flipped.

I have many friends.

100

I'm really grateful for that and I'm very grateful for that.

101

To find new friends and to build a real connection is not always easy.

102

Especially if you learn a new language.

103

And maybe it's also so.

104

And for that, I can recommend you our Easy German Mitgliedschaft.

105

Because as Easy German Member,

106

you can access our Discord-Server,

107

where you can exchange people from the whole world.

108

And I always find it easy to get with other people in contact,

109

who have an interesting interest as me.

110

And that's also on our server because we have many different channels,

111

such as nature, sport, philosophy,

112

and you can search for the most of us,

113

who can use it to you with other Deutsch learning.

114

And we have also a place for living in Germany.

115

So if you live in Germany or plan to work here,

116

then it's also a great way to come with other people.

117

Try it just out.

118

All the info you find in the Info box or at easygerman.org.

119

What is the difference between a friend and a friend?

120

A friend would not tell you anything.

121

A friend would not tell you anything.

122

He would make things together,

123

he would go to the cinema or to the sport.

124

But he would not have a trust basis like with a real friend.

125

I think a friend is really always for one.

126

And a friend is someone who knows,

127

who is not so deep,

128

when you sit with them and talk about certain topics or talk about emotional issues,

129

that's not always so deep.

130

I like it because I like it because I'm not sure if I'm in a way,

131

but when I'm in a way,

132

something weird happened or something,

133

I know I immediately know that I can call him and I know that he knows me best.

134

And I think that with a friend,

135

it's not so that the one.. well,

136

he knows himself already, but he doesn't know that he's not in a deep connection.

137

I would say that you're with a friend on a more surface level.

138

That you might say that you're eating,

139

but it's not so deep-growing.

140

That you're really with friends,

141

friends and friends, really about everything, about every feeling.

142

And that would I personally with a friend's friend not make.

143

There is more everything positive.

144

And with friends and friends it's also negative.

145

Well, I'm expecting a friend more.

146

I have other expectations for a friendship.

147

And I myself am, I think,

148

more prepared for a friend to do.

149

I have time for him to take care of him.

150

And with a friend's friend,

151

I help myself too often.

152

But then it's not so important.

153

Or then it's not so important.

154

Or if it's a friend of mine bad,

155

I try to keep myself up.

156

And then it would be a friend of mine.

157

Maybe that's a good example.

158

Also, a friend of mine is a good friend.

159

I would say that.

160

And then it's also really nice.

161

And with friends you can do things like to go to IKEA or something.

162

You tell yourself that you have often difficulties in Germany to find a real friend.

163

That the Germans are a bit reserved.

164

Have you experienced something like that?

165

Yes, I notice that sometimes,

166

compared to my friend who is hollandish,

167

that the connection is a bit easier to build a connection,

168

when you're not German, because you're not German.

169

But if you have won a German friend,

170

then it's very, very true and very true.

171

But it's always a distance that you need as a German.

172

Many, who come to Germany,

173

say it's always difficult to find friends in Germany.

174

What do you think about that?

175

Or maybe they don't even know what to do?

176

Or maybe it's your experience?

177

I think that's the point,

178

if I start to start,

179

I think that the Germans,

180

if I can say it,

181

but they are from the mentality of the mentality,

182

not so communicative as people who are just more likely to act together and communicate.

183

And I think we Germans are a bit of a bit

184

of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit

185

And so it's sometimes difficult to overcome this firewall.

186

But if it's overwended, it matches it most well.

187

I think a big part is maybe the language barrier,

188

because I've lived in Lissabon and had to deal with German because I couldn't just Portuguese.

189

And so I was in the German bubbles and not Portuguese.

190

I think that when you try to get a few words to know a word,

191

or you say, let's talk to English, then it could work.

192

I can remember my first days in Germany.

193

It was really difficult.

194

Yeah, this so-called Kokosnuss against this physical culture.

195

Explain, I don't understand that.

196

Ah, the Kokosnuss has a hard skin and a sweet, a sweet inner.

197

And it lasts a little,

198

until you break through the hard skin.

199

And that's the Germans, right?

200

That's the Germans.

201

And the Americans, they have this white,

202

outside and a hard yellow in the middle.

203

The two really long to understand.

204

One is not better than the other.

205

You just need to know that the process is always a problem for me.

206

Many of the new coming to Germany say that it's hard to find friends in Germany.

207

What is that?

208

Well, I don't think so.

209

But maybe it's something that I do.

210

I'm a artist, I'm a dancer.

211

I've been working for a long theater and I've been working for a lot.

212

And I think, you always project the other's fault,

213

why something happens to me not.

214

Instead of looking at yourself and looking at myself,

215

how do I do it,

216

how do I do it,

217

how do I do it.

218

Of course, it can always be difficult in a new city.

219

But it has a change effect,

220

how I myself give myself.

221

And I never had a problem.

222

Have you any tips for people to find friends?

223

Just keep on going on and not so quickly give up.

224

I would say, as you said,

225

try to meet each other and be together.

226

And if it's inconvenient for someone,

227

you have to give at the beginning more than the other person.

228

I used to use Bumble Friends for friends and friends.

229

Dating apps are always good,

230

you don't have to always find romantic levels.

231

And try to jump in the cold water.

232

There are often events where Newys in the United States meet.

233

I would recommend it, if you think that.

234

But it's certainly not.

235

Yeah.

236

How do you get friends in Napoli?

237

What do you do in Napoli?

238

Do you buy a bottle of wine?

239

No, you don't have to do it.

240

Friendship is a form of love.

241

It comes or it doesn't.

242

It works or it doesn't.

243

That's for me, for example.

244

I come from Poland.

245

I've never found friends in my life.

246

They came with their life.

247

So it's like love.

248

Do you have any tips for friends to find?

249

Oh gosh.

250

Just to have people to speak and not to worry about it.

251

I am so, I am always very free,

252

I am always talking with everyone,

253

regardless of the Obtagsroman on the street,

254

but not to worry about it and everyone to speak.

255

Janusz, what is your tip to find a new friend?

256

I don't know that really,

257

because I have never been in my life for a friend.

258

They just gave me a little bit of a friend.

259

But I've heard a very nice tip,

260

namely, go to a sport.

261

Make a sport with other people,

262

go to a sport with them,

263

there will be something to do with them.

264

And don't worry about new people speaking.

265

Now we want to know what a real friend is.

266

Write it down in the comments.

267

See you next time.

268

Bye.

269

you

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.
