Hello English learners, welcome back to another great lesson here at EnglishPod.
2
My name is Marco.
3
And my name is Catherine.
4
So Marco, today we've got a little bit of an unusual lesson because we're talking about...
5
hypothetical situations.
6
Right, we're talking about a unreal situation or something that may happen or may not happen.
7
Okay, so you're gonna hear all about this in today's dialogue.
8
We're gonna hear a couple of times when we come back.
9
We'll be breaking it down for you
10
so you know all about these great phrases and how to talk about not real situations with your friends.
11
Bye.
12
Okay, next question.
13
If Eric asked you out on a date, what would you say?
14
Duh, I would say yes.
15
Eric is the most popular kid in school.
16
Okay, my turn.
17
What would you do if you won the lottery?
18
Let's see.
19
If I won the lottery, I would buy two tickets for a trip around the world.
20
If you buy me a ticket, I'll go with you for sure.
21
My dad would freak out if I even mentioned a trip like that.
22
All right, this is a good one.
23
What would your mom say if you told her that you're going to get married?
24
If I told her that, she would faint and have me committed.
25
Yeah.
26
Alright, so I think that was clear and well, a very common situation.
27
Two teenage girls talking to each other about, you know.
28
boys and what would you do and da da da.
29
Guys do this too, so don't just put this on the girls, okay?
30
I don't think we do it like this though.
31
No, but it's actually a very popular game in the car to play.
32
The what if game.
33
The what if game, exactly.
34
And that's exactly the topic that we want to talk about today is the structure, what if, which is actually called a conditional.
35
All right, it's a conditional because the results, the thing that happens depends on something else.
36
Exactly.
37
So let's actually take a look before we talk about all this grammar stuff.
38
Language Takeaway.
39
Okay, so we'll start out with some basic words.
40
Well, you know, they were talking about guys, and she said if Eric asked you out.
41
Uh -huh.
42
Right?
43
So, to ask somebody out.
44
Okay, so this might be a little bit strange because you think, okay, to ask is to ask a question.
45
But to ask out, it's a fixed phrase.
46
It's something you say.
47
These two words go together, right?
48
So, I want to ask someone out.
49
It means I want to invite someone on a date.
50
On a romantic date, usually.
51
So yeah, I want to ask him out to dinner or he asked me out to the movies.
52
Now, if I didn't want to ask somebody out on a romantic date, what verb would you use?
53
I'd say you could invite someone out, but then again, it's always a little bit.. well, you can say invite for someone if you're going to ask them on a date too.
54
So I'd say to ask out is always romantic and to invite can be romantic or just friends.
55
Okay, so to ask somebody out.
56
Now, uh, they were talking about other situations, maybe they would go on a trip or something,
57
and she said, "My dad would freak out." This is a great phrase.
58
This is something that I used a lot when I was a teenager.
59
The word freak out?
60
Freak out.
61
So the verb to freak out means to be really angry or upset or, you know, it could be a good thing or a bad thing.
62
But usually when we're talking about our parents, it's a bad thing.
63
It's a bad thing.
64
So they get angry, they start yelling at you.
65
Freak out.
66
Yeah, so freak out means like overreact.
67
Alright.
68
And the last word that we have on language takeaway today is committed.
69
Look at the whole phrase.
70
He says, "She would have me committed." So this is actually being done to someone.
71
Now we did look at this word before, but basically for marriage, right?
72
To commit to somebody, to promise.
73
Yeah, but to have someone committed means that you're going to send them away to maybe a mental institution.
74
Exactly.
75
So this means they have psychological problems and someone else sends them to the hospital Exactly.
76
So it's always used to have someone committed, right?
77
Right, because it's being done to them.
78
They don't want it to happen.
79
It's involuntary.
80
Okay.
81
So she had him committed.
82
My mom's gonna have me committed if I keep working 20 hours a day.
83
Exactly.
84
So that's the way you use it.
85
And so now you have another way of using this verb.
86
But now I think we should listen to this dialogue again.
87
We're gonna slow it down a little bit.
88
we want to talk about.
89
Okay, next question.
90
If Eric asked you out on a date, what would you say?
91
Duh!
92
I would say yes.
93
Eric is the most popular kid in school.
94
Okay, my turn.
95
What would you do if you won the lottery?
96
Let's see.
97
If I won the lottery, I would buy two tickets for a trip around the world.
98
If you buy me a ticket, I will go with you for sure.
99
My dad would freak out if I even mention a trip like that.
100
All right, this is a good one.
101
What would your mom say if you told her you were going to get married?
102
If I told her that, she would faint and have me committed.
103
All right, so we understood all the vocab now.
104
Now let's take a look at these unreal situations and what we were saying, the what if game.
105
Right, so I think it's important to push these into two different categories, right?
106
We have one kind where it's very unrealistic.
107
It's probably not going to happen, that kind of situation.
108
And the other one is a situation that could very well happen,
109
So the first one we're going to talk about is very unrealistic situations, things that probably won't happen.
110
Okay, so let's take a look at an example that we found in the dialogue.
111
The most common one, and I think everybody gets asked this question, is if you won the lottery, what would you do?
112
Okay, if you won the lottery.
113
So this is a situation that's very uncommon, right?
114
Not many people win the lottery.
115
So we have to say, if you won the lottery, so we use this.
116
this verb in the past tense.
117
If you won the lottery, if this happened, what would you do?
118
Right.
119
So, Katherine, if you won the lottery, what would you do?
120
If I won the lottery, I would buy a boat and sail around the world.
121
With my friends.
122
Alright.
123
So, another example, again, using the same structure, right?
124
The verb in the simple past tense, we would say, "If you were stuck on an island with one other person, who would that be?
125
Alright, so if you were stuck on a desert island with one person, who would that person be?
126
So Marco, I'm gonna ask you, who would it be?
127
I think it would be an engineer or a scientist that could probably get me off the island.
128
What about your girlfriend?
129
Well, you know, that's the point, if I can get to her quicker.
130
Okay, I would say maybe kind of romantic, but kind of not.
131
So that's the first situation, we've got these situations like being stuck on an island, winning the loss, These are very unlikely.
132
But what about the other kind?
133
But before we move on to that, you notice
134
that we used the verb "was." We didn't say "if I was on an island." I said "if I were," right?
135
Or "if you were." So this is the way that you use it in these conditionals.
136
"If I were you," or "if you were president of the United States." This is a rule.
137
So this is a grammar rule.
138
We're not going to describe why it happens because it's very, very complicated and you can look it up on our site.
139
But we're gonna describe how to use it.
140
That's the most important so we can say for example Marco if I were you I would...
141
Dye my hair red.
142
Why?
143
I don't know I think it would look cool.
144
I don't think so.
145
So if I were you I would or if you were me What would you do?
146
Mm -hmm?
147
Exactly?
148
So we always use it like this, right?
149
If you're gonna use this conditional always use were for the subject never wise.
150
a lot of English speakers make this mistake.
151
Yes, very many.
152
So, but now you know that you shouldn't make this mistake and you can speak properly.
153
Alright, so now that we've seen these semi unreal situations, let's move on to something that's a little bit more probable, that it may happen.
154
Right, so we've got these situations that are common or likely.
155
For example, in this lesson we hear, I will go with you for sure.
156
So this is, if you buy me a ticket to travel, of course I will go with you.
157
So, if you buy, this is in the present tense, if you buy, then I will.
158
Right.
159
Right.
160
So, now you notice the difference.
161
The verb is in the present, and then we use, instead of would, we use will. So, again...
162
I can say: If it rains tomorrow, I will stay home and watch TV all day.
163
Okay, so think about this.
164
Before we talked about going to desert islands, now we're talking about rain and the weather.
165
They're very, very different.
166
The rain is, you know, it's very common.
167
So we can say, if it rains tomorrow, I will need an umbrella.
168
What about this?
169
If we have lunch tomorrow, what will we eat?
170
Okay, so we have lunch pretty much every day, right?
171
Yeah, pretty much.
172
So again, it's a situation that is very probable.
173
So if lunch tomorrow, we will probably eat, I don't know, pasta, I think.
174
I'm feeling like pasta.
175
Pasta, noodles.
176
Yeah.
177
Alright, so Marco, let's take another listen to some of these phrases and try and figure out while you're listening, which kind of conditional it is first or the second.
178
Example 1 If it's sunny today, we will go to the park.
179
Example 2 I would get a divorce if I were you.
180
Example 3.
181
Mary will be very sad if Joe leaves.
182
Example 4.
183
We wouldn't be so late if Nick drove faster.
184
Very good.
185
So we heard different examples and the first conditional is the one
186
that we mentioned is very probable and the second conditional is the one that's not so probable.
187
So they're very easy to distinguish.
188
You don't really need to know the names, just know how to use them, right?
189
Exactly.
190
And so just remember, if you were me, what would you do?
191
We've got these kind of pairs, these words that go together.
192
And the other one is more common.
193
It's, if it rains tomorrow, I will bring an umbrella.
194
Perfect.
195
So why don't we listen to this dialogue for the last time just to kind of reinforce everything
196
and then we'll come back and talk a little bit more.
197
OK, next question.
198
If Eric asked you out on a date, what would you say?
199
Duh, I would say yes.
200
Eric is the most popular kid in school.
201
Okay, my turn.
202
What would you do if you won the lottery?
203
Let's.
204
Z. If I won the lottery, I would buy two tickets for a trip around the world.
205
If you buy me a ticket, I'll go with you for sure.
206
My dad would freak out if I even mentioned a trip like that.
207
All right, this is a good one.
208
What would your mom say if you told her that you're going to get married?
209
If I told her that, she would faint and have me committed.
210
So Marco, if we talk any more about grammar, someone's going to have to have me committed.
211
It is a little bit difficult to talk about grammar, especially on a podcast, because it's such a difficult topic and it's also kind of heavy, right?
212
It is, but I'll tell you this.
213
These are very, very common phrases.
214
People use these all the time.
215
We talk in hypotheticals very often.
216
So, if you're asking for advice, for example, or if you're just playing a game in the car, But you're going to encounter these and it's very important to be able to know how to use them.
217
Mm -hmm.
218
So, and this is what we want to see now.

Cảnh Giới Thiệu
Trong video ngày hôm nay, chúng ta đã cùng lắng nghe một cuộc trò chuyện thú vị về những tình huống giả định. Hai nhân vật chính đã thảo luận về những câu hỏi "nếu", giúp chúng ta hiểu rõ hơn về cách sử dụng cấu trúc câu điều kiện trong tiếng Anh. Những tình huống này rất gần gũi với cuộc sống hàng ngày, đặc biệt là khi trò chuyện với bạn bè hoặc khi tham gia vào các trò chơi như "What If".
Các Cụm Từ Hữu Ích
- Ask someone out: Mời ai đó đi hẹn hò
- Win the lottery: Trúng số
- Freak out: Hoảng sợ, bối rối
- Get married: Kết hôn
- Take a trip: Đi du lịch
Ghi nhớ những cụm từ này sẽ giúp bạn tự tin hơn khi giao tiếp và có thể tạo ra những câu hỏi thú vị trong các cuộc trò chuyện.
Thử Thách Luyện Nói Của Bạn
Để cải thiện khả năng nói và nghe của bạn, hãy thử thách bản thân với một bài tập nhỏ. Hãy chọn một trong những câu hỏi "What if" từ video và thử nói câu trả lời của bạn theo cách riêng. Ví dụ, "Nếu bạn trúng số, bạn sẽ làm gì?" Hãy ghi âm lại phần trả lời của bạn và nghe lại, chú ý đến ngữ điệu và cách phát âm. Bạn có thể sử dụng các phần mềm shadowing để luyện nghe nói qua video, giúp cải thiện kỹ năng giao tiếp nhanh chóng và hiệu quả. Hãy nhớ rằng, việc lặp lại và nghe lại nhiều lần sẽ giúp bạn ngày càng tự tin hơn khi sử dụng tiếng Anh trong thực tế.
Ngữ pháp trong video
Những cấu trúc người nói dùng nhiều nhất, kèm đúng cụm từ trong video:
| Cấu trúc | Trong video |
|---|---|
| Câu điều kiện if + mệnh đề, will/would + động từ — điều kiện và kết quả | If I won the lottery, I would buy · If you buy me a ticket, I'll go · If I told her that, she would faint |
| Câu bị động be + quá khứ phân từ — nhấn vào việc xảy ra, không phải người làm | is actually called · being done · being stuck |
| So sánh nhất the -est / the most … — mức cao nhất hoặc thấp nhất trong một nhóm | the most popular · The most common · the most important |
| Khả năng với “might / may” might/may + động từ — điều có thể xảy ra nhưng không chắc | may happen · might be · might say |
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.
