It's Christmas!

Merry Christmas, Jang!

Merry Christmas!

Ooh, stocking.

What did Santa put in my stocking?

Let's see.

A chocolate bar.

Mmm.

Merry Christmas, guys!

Today, I'm going to open some presents.

I'm gonna make some delicious food and we're gonna have some fun.

So come with me and let's learn some English.

Ooh, the presents under the tree.

What do we have?

A gift box.

Is this for me?

Yeah.

Nice.

Let's open it.

What's inside?

Gravy.

Gravy is the brown sauce that we pour on our Christmas dinner.

It's very hard to get this in Vietnam, so...

Cha-ching!

Ooh, Hobnobs.

This is a packet of biscuits, and they are very famous in England.

I've not eaten these in ages.

Thanks, Chang.

I'll put the lid back on the gift box. And what is this?

Ooh, a bottle of Baileys.

I'm gonna drink this later.

Ooh, Ferrero Rocher.

These are fancy chocolates and they come in golden foil.

This is foil and it's wrapped around the chocolate.

And there are nuts inside.

Mmm.

Mmm. So good.

And this gift is...

Whoa, that's heavy!

This is wrapped in wrapping paper.

This is Christmas wrapping paper.

Let's open my present.

Ooh!

What is this?

Chang has bought me something that I've wanted for a long time.

This is a keyboard, which is like a digital piano.

I plug this into my computer and I can make music.

So Spotify, watch this space.

Normally on the 25th of December, it's Christmas and we give and receive gifts and presents.

On the 24th of December, that's called Christmas Eve, and it's the evening before Christmas.

On the 26th of December, that's called Boxing Day, and it's called that because we used to give people gift boxes.

Now we just chill out, relax, eat, drink, and sleep.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, yes.

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da!

I've got my keyboard.

I'm gonna go plug it in to my laptop.

Let's play with it.

I'm going up the stairs.

Or walking up the stairs.

I'm walking to my desk and putting the keyboard on my desk.

Alright guys, this is going to be my music station.

I'm excited.

I've got my microphone, my headphones,

and finally the missing piece, the keyboard.

This keyboard has some pads.

These are for drums.

Do do do do do do do do.

These are knobs.

Ha.

These are sliders.

Woo hoo.

These are wheels.

These are the white keys and these are the black keys.

I'm excited to start making music, but before we do that, I want some food.

I'm hungry.

A big part of Christmas Day is eating lots of food.

Hello.

Well, seeing as you're in my fridge, I'll show you what I'm going to cook.

Ooh, salmon.

This is smoked salmon pastrami.

Eggs.

One, two, three eggs.

A block of pure New Zealand butter.

So, in my fridge, these are shelves.

And this is a drawer.

This is the vegetable drawer.

Down here is another vegetable drawer.

And in here I have some dill.

Well, I don't normally eat a breakfast this fancy, but it's Christmas Day.

So on Christmas we normally eat a very extra breakfast, a very bougie breakfast.

Bougie means fancy.

So, let's cook.

So first thing, I'm going to crack this egg into this bowl.

I'm cracking it on the side. And voila!

This is the egg shell.

And inside the egg you have the yolk, which is the yellow part, and the egg white, which is the clear part.

I'm cracking the second egg, and the last egg.

Now, I need to whisk this.

100

Do I choose a fork or chopsticks?

101

Mmm, well, in Britain we use a fork, in Asia they use chopsticks.

102

I'm British, so I'll use chopsticks.

103

I am whisking the eggs.

104

So I am going to make scrambled eggs.

105

This is my frying pan, it's heating up.

106

This is a knob of butter.

107

It's a funny word, knob.

108

I'm putting the knob of butter into the frying pan, and the butter is melting.

109

It's melting because the pan is ssssss hot.

110

Now I am pouring the eggs into the pan.

111

And again these eggs are going to be scrambled, so I'll take my spatula and stir them like so.

112

We call this scrambling the eggs.

113

I am scrambling the eggs.

114

While the eggs are scrambling, I'll take my loaf of bread.

115

This is a loaf of bread.

116

And I'm going to slice it.

117

I am slicing the loaf of bread.

118

Slice, slice, slice, slice, slice.

119

This is a slice of bread.

120

This is a loaf of bread.

121

I am chopping the dill.

122

Now I'm spreading the butter on the toast.

123

Now time to plate up our food.

124

The golden scrambled eggs, smoked salmon, and finally a sprinkle of dill.

125

Now let's go eat this upstairs.

126

On to the veranda, move past the rings.

127

For you, madam.

128

You're welcome.

129

Zhang is trying to use the knife and fork.

130

Merry Christmas, guys.

131

Thank you for watching this video.

132

I hope you're learning English.

133

I hope it's useful and entertaining for you.

134

Now, speaking of entertainment, on Christmas Day in the UK, normally we drink something called Book's Fizz,

135

which is champagne and orange juice mixed together.

136

But we don't have Bucks Fizz,

137

so we're gonna mix beer and lemonade.

138

And don't worry, it's okay to drink on Christmas Day.

139

It's fine.

140

Everyone does it.

141

Cheers!

142

Do you feel British drinking alcohol on Christmas Day?

143

well well well ho ho ho it's bloody pissing it down guys you can't really see it but it's very wet

144

yeah it's pissing it down again that's a very british phrase meaning it's raining very heavily

145

and it is like it is in the uk

146

because it always rains so i feel right at home anyway

147

if you guys want to improve your English for the new year, remember I have a free English platform.

148

You can sign up for free and improve your English.

149

It's called Sprouts, you can click the link in the description or on the screen.

150

Make sure to check that out and yeah, cheers!

151

Merry Christmas!

152

I'm doing the washing up and after this I think I want to play some games.

153

It's very common in England on Christmas to drink beer, eat food and play games.

154

Games such as darts or Mario Kart or Scrabble.

155

This is a board game that I used to play with my family every Christmas.

156

This is the board.

157

This is a bag.

158

Inside the bag we have tiles.

159

These are tiles and on the tiles we have letters.

160

Oh oh oh.

161

Merry Christmas.

162

So you take a letter to see who goes first.

163

Whoever gets the highest score, I get one.

164

What you got?

165

Four.

166

Okay, Chang goes first.

167

It's her turn first.

168

While Chang goes, I need to get the most Christmas drink there is.

169

Baileys, baileys, baileys, baileys, baileys, baileys.

170

Baileys.

171

Let's open the freezer.

172

Take the tray of ice.

173

Close the freezer.

174

Take two ice cubes.

175

Open the baileys.

176

the Baileys in the glass.

177

Now just one more thing.

178

Basil.

179

Glass of Baileys.

180

Cheers?

181

Yes.

182

Cheers guys!

183

Merry Christmas!

184

Merry Christmas!

185

Baileys is a traditional Christmas drink.

186

And it is a spirit.

187

Spirit is alcohol, strong alcohol.

188

And it's 17% so I'm starting to get pissed.

189

We can also say Merry.

190

Merry is in the spirit of Christmas.

191

Merry, tipsy, or if you're very drunk, pissed.

192

Good word.

193

Do you have any other Christmas traditions?

194

Yeah, we do.

195

We have this plant called mistletoe and

196

when you are under mistletoe then you have to kiss the person who is under it.

197

Chang, I don't have mistletoe but this is basil.

198

Hmm.

199

I wonder if she likes this.

200

He smells of basil.

201

When you don't have mistletoe, get some basil. That works.

202

It works.

203

Merry Christmas.

204

Yep.

205

Merry Christmas.

206

The final word of the day is New Year's resolution, which is a goal that you want to achieve for the coming year.

207

So for me, 2026, I would love to turn Sprout, the English platform that I've built,

208

into a flourishing web app where we have 1 million users.

209

212

I would love to know what you guys want to improve.

213

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.
