1
Come away, beyond the sea.
2
How's it going, Bob?
3
You know I speak whale.
4
Come by!
5
Just as well, he might be hungry.
6
Don't worry, whales don't eat clownfish, they eat krill.
7
Swing away!
8
Oh look, krill!
9
Hell watches the ships that...
10
Smooth, go read!
11
What's going on guys?
12
Today we're learning English with Finding Nemo.
13
So I'm Ethan, your RealLife English Fluency Coach, and I grew up watching this movie.
14
I watched it countless times as a kid.
15
It's definitely a Pixar classic that anyone from the United States, or I'd say anyone from around the world probably knows.
16
And it even stars the iconic voice of comedian Ellen DeGeneres.
17
Now the scene that we've chosen for you today is perfect
18
because it is packed with vocabulary related to the sea and sea animals, it is great for learning how to tell a story in English,
19
and you even get to practice listening to both American and Australian accents.
20
By the way, this week we are celebrating hitting two million subscribers here on YouTube!
21
It's really incredible!
22
So to celebrate and to thank you, we have something really special to share with you in just a little bit.
23
Now let's head under the sea with Finding Nemo.
24
So where are you going?
25
Well, you see, my son was taken.
26
My son was taken away from me.
27
No way.
28
What happened?
29
No, no, no, no, kids, I don't want to talk about it.
30
Aw, boys!
31
Well, okay.
32
I live on this reef a long, long way from here.
33
Oh, boy.
34
This is gonna be good, I can tell.
35
And my son, Nemo, he was mad at me.
36
And maybe he wouldn't have done it if I hadn't been so tough on him.
37
I don't know.
38
Anyway, he swam out in the open water to this boat, and when he was out there, these divers appeared, and I tried to stop them, but the boat was too fast.
39
So we swam out in the ocean to follow him.
40
We couldn't stop him.
41
And then Nemo's dad, he swam out to the ocean, and they bumped into three for all the sharks!
42
He scares away the sharks by blowing them up!
43
Golly, that's amazing!
44
And then dives thousands of feet straight.
45
Straight down into the dock.
46
It's like wicked dock down there.
47
You can't see a thing.
48
That's it going, Bob.
49
And the only thing I can see down there is the life of this big, horrible creature with razor sharp teeth.
50
Nice penny, old man.
51
And letting us to blast as we are...
52
Two little fish up, Ben.
53
Searching the ocean for days.
54
On the east Australian current.
55
Which means that he may be on his way here right now.
56
That just would have been Sydney Harbour in a matter of days.
57
I mean, sounds like this guy's gonna stop at nothing.
58
But nothing until he finds his son.
59
I sure hope he makes it.
60
That's one dedicated fowler, if you ask me.
61
So in this scene, we see Marlin, Nemo's father, telling the story of how Nemo was captured and his journey to find him.
62
His story fascinates other fish and animals as they quickly share and spread it to their friends all over the ocean.
63
So where are you going?
64
Well you see my son was taken, my son was taken away from me.
65
So, Marlin means his son was captured and taken from him by force, to somewhere far from him.
66
A reef is a raised area on the ocean floor that's made of rock, coral, or sand.
67
It normally attracts diverse ocean life, like different kinds of fish and other marine animals, as the movie shows.
68
We can imagine that this reef is the famous Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
69
In fact, we can hear several Australian accents throughout the scene and the movie.
70
Oh boy is an interjection that can express two different types of emotions or moods.
71
It is said when you are excited or pleasantly surprised about something, like Dory seems to be about Marlin's story.
72
Check out this other example.
73
And it can also be used when you are feeling slightly annoyed or disappointed about something.
74
Randall's your monster.
75
You think he's gonna come through the closet and scare you.
76
Oh boy, how do I explain this?
77
Uh, it's empty.
78
See?
79
A long, long way from here.
80
Oh boy, this is gonna be good, I can tell.
81
As you know, the verb to tell usually refers to saying something to someone, like giving them information or instructions.
82
However, in this case, when we hear Dory say, Oh boy, this is gonna be good, I can tell she means something else.
83
What do you think she means?
84
So here we see the other, less common meaning of the verb to tell, which is to know, recognize, or be certain of something.
85
For example, a mother can normally tell if her kids are hungry.
86
See this other example.
87
See this tentacle?
88
It's actually shorter than all my other tentacles.
89
But you can't really tell, especially when I twirl it like this.
90
So, basically, Dory is saying that she senses that the story will be good.
91
And my son, Nemo, he was mad at me.
92
In informal American English, the adjective mad is commonly associated with being angry.
93
So if you say you are mad at somebody, that means that you are angry with somebody.
94
You know, after we went underground, my husband used to listen to a police scanner, waiting for something to happen.
95
And I got mad at him for it.
96
What?
97
You knocked down a building?
98
It was on fire, structurally unsound.
99
It was coming down anyway.
100
Tell me you haven't been listening to the police scanner again.
101
Look, I performed a public service.
102
You act like that's a bad thing.
103
It is a bad thing, Bob.
104
Uprooting our family again so you can relive the glory days is a very bad thing.
105
Reliving the glory days is...
106
See, he was mad at me.
107
And maybe he wouldn't have done it if I hadn't been so tough on him.
108
If you are tough or hard on somebody, you are strict and treat them severely.
109
So Marlin regrets not treating Nemo more kindly, and starts to think that maybe he wouldn't have swam out to open water,
110
where he was captured, if he had been easier on him.
111
By the way, did you notice how he said this?
112
Here we see some major native connected speech.
113
That's how we cut and connect our words.
114
He didn't say wouldn't have done it.
115
He said, Maybe he wouldn't have done it if I hadn't been so tough on him.
116
Maybe he wouldn't have done it if I hadn't been so tough on him.
117
Let's quickly look at a few native tendencies.
118
First, when we have an N and T together, oftentimes we drop the T, like in the words international and interesting .
119
Listen to this other example.
120
Stars, capturing them.
121
He blows them up and then dives, stars at defeat.
122
Alright gang, we have less than 48 hours before Darla gets here.
123
This tank will get plenty dirty in that time.
124
This tank will get plenty dirty in that time, but we have to help it along any way we can.
125
And maybe he wouldn't have done it if I hadn't been so tough on him.
126
Next, in this part, we can see how natives sometimes drop the H sound.
127
This often happens with pronouns, for example, him or her.
128
So he dropped the H in have and connected it to the previous sound, the N from wouldn.
129
Finally, it reduces and hooks to done.
130
So instead of saying a clear done it, he says done it.
131
Altogether, Maybe he wouldn't have done it if I hadn't been so tough on him.
132
Now, this probably feels a bit confusing.
133
It is an extremely common part of native speech
134
and one of the biggest reasons why it can be so hard to understand your favorite series and movies without the subtitles.
135
What you have just seen here is a perfect example of what students of our Fluent with Friends course learn to master.
136

155
Now, let's get back to our lesson with Finding Nemo.
156
This is one of the trickiest irregular verbs to conjugate.
157
Even natives sometimes confuse the past and perfect conjugation.
158
But you don't have to.
159
The correct conjugation should be present, I swim, past, I swam, perfect, I have swum.
160
In this context, open water refers to an area in the ocean that is deep and not close to any terrain, like reef or land.
161
A diver, like the ones we see in the movie that take Nemo away, is a person who dives as a sport or professionally.
162
Divers normally make use of scuba equipment, and that's why they are commonly referred to as scuba divers.
163
By the way, do you know what this similar activity is called?
164
But the boat was too fast, so we swam out in the ocean to follow up.
165
We couldn't stop him!
166
And then Nemo's dad?
167
Dad, he swims out to the ocean and they bump into three for all the sharks!
168
To bump into somebody or something refers to the action of hitting somebody else with your whole body, normally by accident.
169
For example, when you're walking and not paying attention to what is in front of you.
170
However, as is the case of what the turtle says, it can also simply mean you met somebody unexpectedly, without planning to, not that you actually hit them.
171
Check out this example.
172
Hey Rach, funny story, I bumped into Joanna on the street yesterday.
173
My boss Joanna?
174
Wow, that must have been awkward.
175
Well, no, actually she asked me if I want to get a drink.
176
A ferocious animal or person is very aggressive and violent.
177
By the way, do you know how to correctly pronounce this word?
178
In English, words that end in O-U-S are commonly mispronounced due to their complicated spelling.
179
But did you know that most of these share the same simple sound, us, for this OUS termination.
180
For example, listen to these three words.
181
Courageous, Mysterious, Ferocious.
182
In the case of this word, make sure that you notice that the C sound becomes an SH sound.
183
Ferocious.
184
And then Nemo's dad, who swims out to the ocean and then he bumps it to three for all the sharks!
185
He scares away the sharks by blowing them up!
186
Golly, that's amazing!
187
Golly is another interjection used to express excitement or surprise about something.
188
If you scare somebody away or scare them off, you are causing them to go away and stay away,
189
because of fear or because of possible trouble, difficulty, etc. Hey, you!
190
Wait a second!
191
Look, I'm not gonna eat you!
192
I just...
193
I just...
194
To blow up is to explode.
195
This line refers to the moment earlier in the movie
196
when Marlin and Dory escaped from three sharks because of an explosion that happened.
197
Here, the slang expression wicked functions as an adjective,
198
and is used to give emphasis.
199
So if a place is wicked dark, it is very dark.
200
Dory, do you see anything?
201
Ah!
202
Something's got me!
203
That was me, I'm sorry.
204
Who's that?
205
Who's that?
206
Who could it be?
207
It's me.
208
The words, a thing, when used negatively in a collocation such as, can't see a thing, means cannot see anything.
209
Check out this example with another collocation.
210
But Fiona and I are married now.
211
We need a little time, you know, to be together.
212
Just with each other.
213
Alone.
214
Say no more, say no more, you don't have to worry about a thing.
215
I will always be here to make sure nobody bothers you.
216
Then dies thousands of feet straight down into the dark.
217
It's like wicked dark down there, you can't see a thing.
218
How's it going, Bob?
219
And the only thing I can see down there is the life of this big, horrible creature with rings of sharp teeth.
220
In this part we've just seen, we can see a fascinating element of storytelling.
221
Did you notice how he is telling the story in the past, but then here he changes to the present tense?
222
Why do you think that he does this? Because...
223
That's right, sometimes we are creative with conjugation when we tell a story.
224
In this instance, he switches to the present tense because he really wants to put the listener in this situation,
225
imagining himself being deep in the ocean and not being able to see a thing.
226
Be sure to pay attention to these changes in conjugation in other parts of the scene and imagine why they might happen.
227
And the only thing I can see down there is the knife in this big horrible creature with razor sharp teeth.
228
Nice penny oil, man.
229
And letting us to blast as we are...
230
A razor is a tool that people use for shaving.
231
It can also refer to just the blade part of the object, which tends to be very sharp.
232
That is, it can cut through things very easily.
233
So if we say that something, such as teeth, is razor sharp, we mean that the teeth are as sharp as a razor.
234
If you make your way somewhere, you are making an effort to go somewhere.
235
Example, he's making his way across Europe, from Lisbon to Minsk.
236
These swordfish are explaining that Marlin had to blast his way somewhere.
237
He might be referring to when Marlin and Dory had to quickly cross a field of jellyfish.
238
They blasted their way across the jellyfish.
239
By the way, if you want to learn more nautical and fish vocabulary, then the perfect lesson for you to watch next is this one with Spongebob Squarepants.
240
So in Finding Nemo we see a natural phenomenon called ocean current, which is a continuous directed movement of seawater.
241
In the movie, it is represented by a visible tunnel of moving water, as we can see here.
242
So Marlin is using the East Australian current to travel faster and reach the city of Sydney in less time.
243
This guy's gonna stop it.
244
The expression a matter of is the same as only or just.
245
For example, in a matter of seconds the building was in flames.
246
So that means in just a few seconds the building was on fire.
247
So they believe that Marlin will be in Sydney Harbor in just a few days.
248
A harbor such as the Sydney Harbor is a protected area along the shore where boats can be anchored or docked.
249
If you say that someone will stop at nothing to get or do something, you are emphasizing that they are willing to do things that are extreme,
250
wrong, risky, or dangerous in order to get it.
251
He will stop at nothing to save the princess.
252
If you make it, you are successful in achieving something difficult, or in surviving through a very difficult period.
253
Look, we're gonna break your neck so you don't feel a thing.
254
How's that?
255
Wait a minute, I thought rhinos were vegetarians.
256
An excellent point!
257
Shut up!
258
Who says we're gonna eat them after we kill them?
259
Yeah, come on, move it!
260
Okay, look, if either of you make it across that sinkhole in front of you, you get the sloth.
261
In another context, if you make it somewhere, you succeed in getting there, especially in time to do something.
262
The wedding!
263
We'll never make it in time!
264
Ha ha ha, I never fear, for where there's a will, there's a way, and I have a way.
265
And look for the giant chicken!
266
Now, Etch!
267
That's where I need to go.
268
You can't go, Buzz.
269
You'll never make it there.
270
Woody once risked his life to save me.
271
I couldn't call myself his friend if I weren't willing to do the same.
272
So where are you going?
273
Well, you see, my son was taken.
274
My son was taken away from me.
275
No way.
276
What happened?
277
No, no, no, no, kids.
278
I don't want to talk about it.
279
Aw, boys!
280
Well, okay.
281
I live on this reef a long, long way from here.
282
Oh, boy.
283
This is going to be good.
284
I can tell.
285
And my son, Nemo, he was mad at me.
286
And maybe he wouldn't have done it if I hadn't been so tough on him.
287
I don't know.
288
Anyway, he swam out in the open water to this boat, and when he was out there, these divers appeared, and I tried to stop them, but the boat was too fast, so we swam out in the ocean to follow him.
289
We couldn't stop him, and then Nemo's dad, who swam out to the ocean, and they bumped into three for all the sharks!
290
He scares away the sharks by blowing them up!
291
Golly, that's amazing!
292
And then dives thousands of feet straight down into the dark.
293
It's like wicked dark down there.
294
You can't see a thing.
295
That's a gumbop, and the only thing I can see down there...
296
...is the life of this big, horrible creature with razor sharp teeth.
297
Nice patio, man.
298
And then he has to blast his way out.
299
Two little fish have been...
300
...touching the ocean for days.
301
On the East South Street.
302
Hurry!
303
It means that he may be on his way here right now.
304
That should put him in Sydney.
305
...in a matter of days!
306
I mean, it sounds like this guy's gonna stop at nothing!
307
But nothing until he finds his son!
308
I sure hope he makes it!
309
There's one dedicated father if you ask me!
310
Alright, I hope you've had a lot of fun with this lesson with Finding Nemo, and hey, if you're ready to take your English to the next level

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.
