1
Hey, I want my room.
2
Excuse me?
3
I want my room now.
4
What?
5
Oh, I think she wants to check into the hotel, but she doesn't know how to say it in English.
6
No worries.
7
Let me teach her.
8
Ah, I think you want to learn hotel English, right?
9
Well, congratulations, you're in the right place.
10
Let's begin our lesson.
11
First of all, when you arrive at the hotel lobby, you're going to see this place.
12
Now this place is called the hotel front desk or hotel reception.
13
So if you want to make a sentence, you could say, I need to check in at the hotel front desk.
14
I need to check out at the hotel front desk.
15
Now generally you're going to see someone behind that desk and I can't guarantee they'll be as handsome as I am.
16
Anyways, this person could be called the receptionist,
17
the hotel staff or the hotel front desk is okay as well.
18
So what should you say to this person?
19
Well, you can start the conversation and say, Hello, I have a reservation.
20
You could also say, Hello, I have a reservation under, and then say your name.
21
For example, me, I'm John Pang.
22
Hello, I have a reservation under Pang.
23
Now the hotel front desk, they might start the conversation.
24
They might say, hello, do you have a reservation?
25
Now this sentence is very useful because you hear this at a restaurant as well.
26
Hello, welcome to our restaurant.
27
Do you have a reservation?
28
Hello, welcome to our hotel.
29
Do you have a reservation?
30
And of course I don't have a reservation, bro.
31
I'm John Pang.
32
I'm a famous influencer.
33
Just kidding.
34
I can't get a reservation anywhere.
35
Hook me up if you have a restaurant.
36
Anyways, let's talk about some of the next questions you're going to hear when you check in.
37
Now, after you've confirmed you have a reservation, they're probably going to ask you some questions.
38
For example, can I see your ID, please?
39
Remember, ID stands for identification.
40
Now remember, the two most common forms of ID is your passport or your driver's license.
41
Perhaps they might ask you, can I have your phone number, please?
42
And that's a useful sentence because maybe you want to get someone's phone number as well.
43
Someone at the bar, somebody cute that you might have a crush on can I get your number?
44
Can I have your phone number?
45
Just be careful with that one, okay?
46
If you get slapped, it's not my fault.
47
Now, when you make a hotel reservation, you're probably gonna do it online or on a mobile app.
48
And when you do that,
49
you're usually gonna get a booking number or a confirmation number or a reservation number.
50
Generally, all three of these are used interchangeably.
51
So the hotel front desk may ask you, can I see your reservation number?
52
Can I see your booking number?
53
Can I see your confirmation number?
54
Okay, now that you've given all this information, they're most likely going to confirm your reservation details with you.
55
For example, they might say the following.
56
Okay, Mr. Peng, I'd like to confirm your reservation details.
57
Now, when they confirm your reservation details, they're most likely going to talk about your room type or your bed type.
58
Now, a lot of international hotels usually have different names for these types of rooms, but the most common ones are single room,
59
twin room, double room, family room,
60
deluxe room, or if you are a baller, high roller, the penthouse.
61
Now, they might also list out the type of bed you have.
62
For example, a single size bed, a twin size bed, a double size bed,
63
a queen size bed, and the king size bed.
64
And finally, they will also confirm how many nights you are staying.
65
For example, hello, I see a reservation for Mr. Peng for three nights.
66
Is that correct?
67
Okay, now that we've learned all these vocabulary and sentences, let's see it in action.
68
Let's go.
69
Hello.
70
Hello.
71
Hello.
72
Welcome to our hotel.
73
Do you have a reservation?
74
Yes, I'm the one.
75
Wonderful.
76
Can I see your ID, please?
77
Yes, here you go.
78
Thank you.
79
And do you happen to have your booking number?
80
Yes.
81
1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
82
Okay, perfect.
83
Okay, I just want to confirm your reservation details.
84
You'll be staying Friday to Sunday, three nights in total, in the penthouse, and be checking out on Monday.
85
Is that correct?
86
Yes.
87
Okay, perfect.
88
Okay, my friends, that does it for today's English lesson.
89
Here's your homework.
90
Use some of these phrases, some of these vocabulary words in the comments.
91

92

93

逐步影子跟读指南

对于希望提高英语发音的学习者，影子跟读（shadowing）是一种绝佳的练习方法。以下是如何使用本视频来增强您的英语技能的步骤：

  1. 观看视频：首先，观看此视频，仔细听讲解者的发音和语调。注意每个短语的用法和语境。
  2. 暂停与重复：每当讲解者说出一个关键短语时，暂停视频并尝试跟读。确保模仿他的发音和语调。
  3. 标记难点：注意哪些词或短语您觉得难以发音。可以反复练习这些部分，直到您觉得自信。
  4. 用实际场景练习：想象自己正在酒店前台办理入住，利用您所学的短语进行角色扮演。确保在与他人交流时使用这些短语。
  5. 录音对比：尝试将自己练习的录音与视频中的发音进行对比，从而听出自己的发音差异并加以改正。

通过坚持使用英语影子跟读和实践，您将明显提高英语听说能力，更加自信地与他人交流。

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。
