1
For a lot of you, speaking is the hardest part of English.
2
You can read it, you can understand it, but the moment it's your turn to talk, something happens.
3
Your brain freezes.
4
The words you knew yesterday are suddenly gone.
5
So I made this challenge for you.
6
Seven days, seven real-life conversations, shadowing every day.
7
Shadowing makes you speak the real words out loud at the exact same time as the characters speaking.
8
Not after, with them.
9
Today is day two of the challenge and today we're at the coffee shop.
10
As I promised, I brought the dog.
11
You are the customer, you walk in, you order, and things do not go smoothly.
12
Here are the words and phrases you need to know first. To go.
13
When you order something to go, you want it packed up so you can take it with you rather than sitting down inside.
14
Next for here.
15
For here means you are staying to sit down and have it inside.
16
It is the opposite of to go.
17
Then to customize your order.
18
When you customize your order, you are changing something about the standard drink, the size, the type of milk, or how sweet it is.
19
Next, oat milk.
20
Oat milk is a dairy-free alternative to regular milk made from oats.
21
It has become very common in coffee shops over the last few years.
22
Then a shot of espresso.
23
A shot of espresso is a small concentrated amount of coffee.
24
When you ask for an extra shot, you are making the whole drink stronger.
25
Next, decaf.
26
Decaf is short for decaffeinated.
27
It is coffee with the caffeine taken out.
28
People order it when they love the taste of coffee but want to avoid the caffeine.
29
Then room at the top.
30
When you ask for room at the top, you are asking the barista to leave a little space in the cup so you can add your own cream or milk.
31
Next, to charge someone.
32
To charge someone means to add a cost to their bill.
33
When the barista says we charge extra for that, it means they are adding that amount to your total.
34
Then, to ring that up.
35
To ring something up means to put the order into the register and calculate the total price.
36
And finally, hang on.
37
Hang on is a very common informal way of saying, wait a moment.
38
You will hear it constantly in everyday conversation.
39
By the way, before we get into the next conversation, I want to tell you about a handbook a lot of you have been asking about.
40
It's called 300 plus English words and expressions.
41
And it's the handbook that goes with what we are doing in this challenge.
42
The reason you freeze when you speak is not that you don't know the words.
43
Sometimes the words you know are not the ones natives use in conversation.
44
You learn delicious at school.
45
Native speakers will most often say, oh my god, this is so good.
46
You learn very tired, but natives be like, oh, I'm exhausted.
47
Same idea, totally different vocabulary, more emotion.
48
This handbook gives you over 300 of these expressions organized by situation with examples of how they are used in real sentences,
49
coffee shops, restaurants, small talk, work, dating, traveling, the kind of vocabulary that makes you sound natural instead of like a textbook.
50
It's a download, so you get it in your email a few minutes after you buy it.
51
And you can use it for shadowing too, which is exactly what we're doing today.
52
The link is in the description.
53
Now let's get into our today's conversation.
54
Ordering coffee.
55
Now just listen to the full conversation.
56
Get familiar with the words, the pacing, and the way it sounds in natural speech.
57
Hi there.
58
Welcome in.
59
What can I get started for you?
60
Hi.
61
Can I get a medium latte, please?
62
Absolutely.
63
Is that for here or to go?
64
To go, please.
65
Perfect.
66
And what kind of milk would you like?
67
We have whole, skim, oat, almond, and soy.
68
Oat milk, please.
69
Actually, wait.
70
Can I also add an extra shot of espresso? Of course.
71
So that is a medium oat milk latte with an extra shot.
72
You want any syrup in there?
73
Vanilla?
74
Caramel?
75
Hazelnut?
76
Hmm.
77
You know what?
78
Can I get half a pump of vanilla?
79
Half a pump?
80
Sure.
81
We can do that.
82
Just a tiny bit.
83
Not too sweet.
84
Oh, and actually, can you make a decaf?
85
I know that probably sounds strange with an extra shot, but I just genuinely love the taste of espresso without the caffeine.
86
Huh, honestly, you are not the first person to order that.
87
Decaf, double shot, oat milk latte, half pump vanilla.
88
Anything else I can add?
89
Actually, yes, sorry, one more thing.
90
Can you leave a little room at the top?
91
I like to add my own cream after.
92
No problem at all.
93
Just so you know, the extra shot does add to the price.
94
It is 75 cents on top.
95
Oh, that is completely fine, yeah.
96
Great.
97
And can I get a name for the order?
98
Alex.
99
Alex.
100
Perfect.
101
Cash or card today?
102
Card.
103
Actually, hang on.
104
Do you guys have any of those coffee cards?
105
Like a loyalty card or something?
106
We do.
107
Every 10 drinks, you get one free.
108
I can set that up for you right now if you want.
109
It only takes a second.
110
Oh yes, please, that would be great.
111
Cool.
112
Let me just grab one.
113
Okay, so I am going to stamp it once for today's order.
114
There you go.
115
Nine more to go.
116
Amazing, thank you.
117
So, what is my total?
118
So, with the extra shot that comes to $6.20.
119
Sorry, quick question.
120
Is the oat milk extra too, or just the shot?
121
Just the shot.
122
Oat milk is included in the base price here.
123
Oh, nice.
124
Good to know.
125
Perfect.
126
I will just need you to tap or insert whichever you prefer.
127
Okay, here's my card.
128
I will tap.
129
Great.
130
That has gone through.
131
So your order is a decaf oat milk latte, double shot, half pump vanilla, room at the top.
132
I will call out Alex when it is ready.
133
Should be about three to four minutes.
134
Perfect.
135
Oh, and is there a sleeve on that cup?
136
I always burn my hand.
137
Always.
138
Yes, we put a sleeve on all the to-go cups.
139
You are good.
140
Amazing.
141
Thank you so much. Of course.
142
Have a wonderful day.
143
You too, thanks.
144
Now it is your turn.
145
The conversation will play again.
146
And this time, say the customer's words out loud at the exact same time you hear them.
147
Same pace.
148
Do not wait.
149
Here we go.
150
Hi there.
151

152
What can I get started for you?

See you there and bye-bye.

推薦影片

為什麼通過這個影片練習說話?

對於許多人來說,說英語是最困難的部分。你可以閱讀並理解,但在輪到你說話時,腦袋卻突然空白。這個影片的目的就是幫助你克服這個障礙。通過“英語影子跟讀”,你可以在聽到對話的同時,模仿並大聲重複出聲。這樣的練習不僅能夠增強你的口語流暢度,還能幫助你熟悉日常對話的真實用語。例如,在咖啡店的場景中練習下單,能夠使你在實際情況下更自信。每天堅持訓練,將有助於提升你的發音和表達,使你的英語交流更加自然。

語法與表達在語境中的分析

在影片中,有幾組關鍵表達可以幫助你更好地瞭解日常對話:

  • To go:表示外帶,和for here形成對比,後者表示在店內用餐。
  • Customize your order:自定義訂單,讓你能夠根據自己的需要調整選擇。
  • Decaf:意為無咖啡因的咖啡,適合那些想享受咖啡口味,卻不想攝入咖啡因的人。
  • Hang on:口語中常用的短語,意為稍等片刻,幫助你在對話中掌握停頓。

通過學習這些實用的表達,你的英語影子跟讀練習將更加豐富和真實。

常見的發音陷阱

在影片中,某些單詞的發音可能會讓學習者感到困惑。例如,“espresso”這個詞通常會被誤讀成“expresso”。為了提高你的英語發音,建議多聽這一類詞彙的正確發音並進行模仿。此外,地方口音也可能會影響你對某些單詞的理解。因此,藉助影片中的實際對話及反覆練習“shadowspeak”將有助於減少這些發音上的錯誤,提升你的發音準確性。

通過堅持每天的英語影子跟讀練習,你將會明顯提高英語口語能力,增強與他人的交流信心。讓我們一起通過“看YouTube學英語”來實現更流利的英語表達吧!

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:

結構影片中的用法
現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事has become · has gone
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的are used · is included
“will” 表將來 will + 動詞 — 決定、承諾或預測will hear · will most · will just need
現在進行時 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在發生的事are staying · are changing · are making

什麼是跟讀法?

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
