Hey guys! It's Ariannita la Gringa and  welcome back to my YouTube channel.
2
In today's video I'm going  to teach all of you a list of phrases on how to order food  in the United States, let's go.
3
You can use these phrases anywhere especially at Chipotle and you're probably wondering  why I'm recording this video at Chipotle.
4
Well, last time I ate at Chipotle  I saw someone having trouble ordering food and I'm sure there are many  others who also find it difficult or just might not feel comfortable when they  order food, so I'm making this video to help you order food easily next time  you come here or go to a different place.
5
First of all, what is Chipotle?
6
Chipotle is a fast food chain restaurant that  sells Tex-Mex food or Mexican-inspired food.
7
If you're not familiar with Tex-Mex  food it's actually a combination of two words, Tex from Texas and Mex from Mexico.
8
Chipotle sells Tex-Mex style  food it's a blend of Mexican and American flavors often using  a lot of cheese and bold spices.
9
Now what are some ways to  order food here at Chipotle?
10
There are two ways, you can walk inside  in order in person by going through the line or you can order ahead on the mobile app  and then pick up your food right over there.
11
In this video I'm not going to  order through the App, instead, I'm going to focus on ordering  inside and going through the line.
12
And if you noticed you will see the  workers making food in front of you.
13
Not every restaurant does this, but Chipotle  does this, so you can see all of their choices.
14
Speaking about choices,  let's see what's on the menu.
15
When you go to a restaurant the first thing  you look at is the menu, but because this is a fast food chain restaurant you won't have  a physical menu or a physical copy with you, so you'll actually have to look up above  the counter and check out the menu.
16
That's the only menu they have.
17
There are only four things on the menu  which makes it pretty easy to pick out something and this helps me out a ton  because I'm a pretty indecisive person.
18
They have burritos, bowls, tacos, and salads.
19
But before ordering let me show you how  to get ready to order at the counter, because once you're there they are going  to ask you what type of base you want, what kind of protein you  want, and all of the toppings.
20
This place gets pretty busy so  it's good to know what you want.
21
For example, let's say I choose a bowl.
22
Now I have to pick my base, so do I  want white rice, brown rice, or salad?
23
And then I have to choose between  pinto beans and black beans.
24
Then you get to pick the protein  which can be steak, chicken, carnitas, barbacoa, and sofritas  which is the vegetarian option.
25
Once you have the base and protein then you get to  pick out the toppings which is my favorite part.
26
You can choose between pico de gallo, corn,  sour cream, cheese, guacamole, and lettuce.
27
Also just so you know some toppings cost extra.
28
This means you have to pay more money if  you want to add on some more toppings.
29
For example, a chicken bowl is $8.50, if you want  to add queso that'll cost $1.60 and guac is $2.70.
30
Also, if you get an extra scoop of protein it'll  be around $2, so the total price won't be $8.50.
31
If you add on all of these extra  toppings this bowl can be $14 or $15.
32
But don't worry this process is pretty simple, you walk down the line and you  tell the worker what you want.
33
It's like building your meal as you go.
34
Once you understand the ingredients and how to ask for food ordering food  over there is pretty simple.
35
So let's go over some useful phrases  that will help you order food.
36
Instead of listing things like rice, chicken,  beans, and corn we want to use complete sentences.
37
For example, you can say I'll do or I would like.
38
Hi, I'll do a bowl.
39
Let me do. Let me do white rice.
40
I'll have. I'll have chicken please.
41
Can I have...?
42
Can I have corn?
43
I want and then I want salsa.
44
I'll take. I'll take pico de gallo.
45
Let's say you added cheese but you didn't  get enough, if you want to add some more cheese you can say can I have some extra  cheese or can I have a little bit more cheese?
46
Can I have a little bit more cheese?
47
But if you don't want a lot of a certain  topping, for example, rice, they usually put a lot of rice then you can say I want a  little bit of rice or I'd like a little rice.
48
I'd like a little rice.
49
Now if you want to skip something  or you don't want to add that ingredient on top of your bowl  like for example beans because they might make you you can say no beans  please or I don't want any beans.
50
No beans, please.
51
And I don't want the pico de gallo.
52
Now if you want to combine all  of the ingredients you can say can you mix everything please or can  you mix everything together, please?
53
And I usually say this when I order a burrito  because I like everything mixed together.
54
Can you mix everything together, please?
55
Now that you guys know the different  types of phrases we use when we order food and the different types of  toppings they have here at Chipotle, I think it's time to put our English skills  to the test and hop in line and order food.
56
Hey, what can I get for you? -Can I get a bowl, please?
57
Any rice, beans, or protein. -Yes, can I do a little bit of rice?
58
Which types? -White rice.
59
Any beans? -No beans, please.
60
Protein? -I'll do chicken, please.
61
Are you getting any queso, fajita veggies today? -Yea, is queso extra?
62
Yes. -Um I'll do a scoop of queso.
63
And then I'll do mild.
64
Can I get corn, please?
65
Can I do sour cream on the side? -Yup Thank you.
66
And then I'll get cheese and  then lettuce and then that's it.
67
Thank you. -You're welcome.
68
Any chips or drinks for you?
69
Yeah, I'll do chips and then  just a water cu,p please.
70
Thank you! Are you paying with cash or card? -Card Here at Chipotle, you can redeem points on  the app so I'm going to redeem some chips.
71
And now I'm going to pay. -Your total is $9.38.
72
$9.38. Thank you for visiting Chipotle. -Thank you.
73
So I just paid for my food and the nice thing  about coming here is that their water is free.
74
This is the water cup so I'm going to  grab some water, but if I wanted to drink something else like pop or soda like Coke,  Sprite, or even juice that'll cost extra.
75
I'd get a larger cup instead of the water cup.
76
Over here I'm going to set my tray down.
77
You can find utensils like forks.
78
This is a fork.
79
Knives. This is a knife, and spoons.
80
This is a spoon.
81
These are utensils.
82
And then after filling up my water  cup, I need to put a lid on top.
83
This is the lid.
84
And of course, how am I going to drink this?
85
Well I need a straw.
86
This is a straw.
87
And then I will grab some napkins,  these are napkins which will help clean my hands and wipe my  mouth after I finish eating.
88
And here at Chipotle you can grab some  hot sauce and put it on top of your food.
89
Okay everybody now you guys know how to order food  at Chipotle and remember you can practice these phrases here at Chipotle or at any other fast  food chain especially when you order in person.
90
And remember if you have trouble understanding someone then you can ask if  they can repeat themselves.
91

Bon Appetit!

你能学到什么实用口语技能?

这段视频能帮你掌握两大核心口语技能:一是在快餐店流畅点单的完整表达,比如用“I'll do”“Can I have”等句式组建句子,摆脱单字蹦的尴尬;二是灵活应对点餐细节,比如要求增减配料(“多一点奶酪”“少一点米饭”)或跳过某样食材(“不要豆子”)。这些不仅适用于日常用餐,也是雅思口语练习中“描述日常活动”话题的实用素材。

注意这些连读与弱读现象

视频中存在典型的连读和弱读,比如“I'll do a bowl”中“do a”连读为/dʊə/,“Can I have corn”中“have”弱读为/həv/。此外,“let me do”中的“me”常弱读为/mɪ/,“I'd like a little rice”中“like a”连读为/laɪkə/。这些语音现象是提高英语发音的关键,通过shadowing site模仿练习,能快速提升口语流畅度。

像母语者一样掌控节奏与重音

母语者点餐时节奏轻快,重音落在关键信息上。比如“Hi, I'll do a bowl”中“bowl”重读,突出餐品类型;“Can I have some extra cheese”中“extra”重读,强调需求。练习时可采用shadow speech法,即边看视频边同步跟读,模仿其停顿和语调。此外,视频中“guacamole”“carnitas”等食材词的发音也需注意,通过看YouTube学英语积累这类高频词汇,能让你的表达更地道。记住,点餐时自信的语气比完美发音更重要,大胆开口才能越练越熟练。

视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构,并附上视频中的原话:

结构视频中的用法
条件句 if + 从句,will/would + 动词 — 条件及其结果if you noticed you will see · if you want to add queso that'll cost
定语从句 who / which + 从句 — 补充说明人或事物menu which makes · protein which can · toppings which is
用 “might / may” 表可能 might/may + 动词 — 有可能但不确定的事might not feel · might make
“will” 表将来 will + 动词 — 决定、承诺或预测will see · won't have · that'll cost

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
