Hi friends!
2
Welcome back to Daily English Talk, the podcast where you learn real, natural English every single day.
3
Hey everyone!
4
So happy you are here with us today.
5
I am Tom.
6
I'm Lily.
7
If this is your first time watching, welcome to the family.
8
We upload a new English lesson every single day, so make sure you hit that subscribe button right now.
9
Tom, you are so dramatic.
10
Today's lesson is very special.
11
We have something super useful for you.
12
We're going to teach you 30 sentences that you can use in real -life English conversations, starting today, starting right now.
13
These sentences are perfect for beginners, for intermediate learners, and honestly for anyone who wants to sound more natural in English.
14
By the end of this video, you will have 30 real useful sentences in your brain, ready to use.
15
Let's go.
16
But first, I have a question for you.
17
Ooh, a question!
18
I love this part.
19
Okay, so, today, Tom tried to use one of these 30 sentences in a real situation, a real -life moment.
20
I did.
21
And something very funny happened, something unexpected.
22
Oh, here we go.
23
So, your question is this: Tom used one simple English sentence to try to order food at a restaurant.
24
What happened next?
25
Did it go well?
26
Did it go badly?
27
Stay with us, we will tell you everything at the end.
28
It did not go well.
29
Tom, no hints.
30
Sorry, sorry.
31
Okay, so Tom, let's talk about today's topic a little bit before we go into the lesson.
32
Yes, so this idea started because of something that happened to me last week.
33
Tell us.
34
So, I was at a coffee shop, a new place, very nice, and the person at the counter said something to me in English very fast,
35
and I just stood there, completely silent.
36
No, what did they say?
37
They said, "Would you like that for here or to go?" and I just froze.
38
Tom, that is such a simple sentence.
39
I know, but in the moment my brain just stopped working.
40
I panicked.
41
I said nothing.
42
I just pointed at a table.
43
You pointed?
44
I pointed at a chair like a caveman.
45
The barista looked at me like, "Okay, sir." I cannot believe you.
46
And that is exactly why today's lesson is so important, because knowing sentences in your head is different from being ready to use them.
47
That is such a good point, Tom.
48
And that is what today is all about.
49
We want you to hear these sentences, feel them, and practice them.
50
So when your moment comes, you are ready.
51
No more pointing at chairs.
52
No more pointing at chairs.
53
Okay, before we go into the sentences, let's talk about something important.
54
Why are these 30 sentences so useful?
55
Great question, Lily!
56
I know, I asked it myself.
57
These sentences use three very simple grammar structures.
58
And if you understand these three structures, you can make hundreds of new sentences on your own.
59
Structure number one.
60
"Can I" plus a verb.
61
For example, "Can I have a coffee?" Can I sit here?
62
Can I ask you something?
63
This structure is perfect for asking for things politely.
64
Can I is friendly, natural, and very common in everyday English.
65
Structure number two: I would like plus a noun.
66
For example, I would like a table for two.
67
I would like some help.
68
I would like to order now.
69
I would like sounds a little more formal than can I, but it is still very natural and very useful, especially in restaurants, shops, and hotels.
70
Structure number three: Could you plus a verb.
71
For example, could you speak more slowly?
72
Could you help me?
73
Could you say that again?
74
This one is gold.
75
If you are ever confused in English, could you say that again will save you every single time.
76
So, remember, can I plus verb, I would like plus noun, could you plus verb.
77
These three patterns are in almost all 30 sentences today.
78
Okay, let's go.
79
30 sentences.
80
We will teach them in six groups of five.
81
Each group has a theme.
82
Ready? So ready.
83
Sentence 1: Can I have a menu, please?
84
This is the first sentence you need when you walk into a restaurant.
85
Simple, polite, perfect.
86
I actually use this even when the menu is already on the table because I just forget it is there.
87
That is very you, Lily.
88
It is not.
89
Okay, sentence two.
90
I would like a coffee, please.
91
You can replace coffee with anything.
92
Water, a sandwich, a window seat.
93
I would like a window seat, please.
94
Beautiful.
95
Sentence 3: Could you bring the bill, please?
96
Oh, this one.
97
I never know when to say this.
98
I always wait too long and then we sit there for 20 minutes.
99
Tom, just say it!
100
I know, I know.
101
Could you bring the bill, please?
102
I will practice.
103
Sentence 4.
104
Is this table free?
105
Very useful.
106
You look at a table, someone's bag is on the chair, you do not know if someone is sitting there, you say, is this table free?
107
Polite, clear, done.
108
And sentence 5: I am sorry, I did not order this.
109
Oh, this happened to me once.
110
They brought me a full plate of something I did not order.
111
I had no idea what it was.
112
"What did you do?" I ate it because I did not know the sentence.
113
Tom, I'm sorry I did not order this.
114
Say it.
115
I know now.
116
I know now.
117
Sentence 6.
118
Nice to meet you.
119
This is maybe the most important social sentence in English.
120
Nice to meet you.
121
Say it with a smile.
122
Say it with energy.
123
People love it.
124
Sentence 7.
125
Where are you from?
126
Everyone loves this question.
127
It starts a conversation immediately.
128
Where are you from?
129
And then you listen and you ask more questions.
130
Sentence 8.
131
What do you do for work?
132
you meet someone.
133
What do you do for work?
134
Or sometimes people say, what do you do?
135
Same meaning.
136
Sentence 9.
137
How long have you been here?
138
This is great at a party, at a conference, anywhere new.
139
How long have you been here?
140
It shows you are interested.
141
And sentence 10.
142
It was great meeting you.
143
I love this one.
144
You say it when you are saying goodbye.
145
It was great meeting you.
146
It leaves a wonderful impression. Of course.
147
You said, "Nice to meet you" so loudly that the whole room looked at us.
148
I was nervous.
149
I get loud when I'm nervous.
150
I know, I love it.
151
Okay, group three, these are sentences for when you need help, and this is so important for English learners.
152
Sentence 11: Could you help me please?
153
Simple, direct, polite.
154
You can say this to anyone: a shop assistant, a stranger on the street, a colleague at work.
155
Sentence 12: Could you say that again please?
156
This one.
157
This is your best friend.
158
If someone speaks too fast, if you did not understand, do not panic.
159
Just say, "Could you say that again, please?" I wish I had used this at the coffee shop instead of pointing at a chair.
160
Yes, you really should have.
161
Sentence 13.
162
Could you speak more slowly, please?
163
You are allowed to ask this.
164
It is not rude.
165
Native English speakers speak fast.
166
It is okay to ask them to slow down.
167
And sentence 14: I do not understand.
168
Four words, but so powerful.
169
I do not understand.
170
Say it clearly and people will help you.
171
And sentence 15.
172
Can you write that down for me?
173
Oh, this is brilliant.
174
If someone gives you an address, a name, a phone number, and you are worried you will forget it, just say, "Can you write that down for me?" Works every time.
175

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
