Hey guys!
2
Today I'm gonna take you with me to one of the American stores to upgrade your vocabulary.
3
Even if you think you know all these words,
4
you could check your knowledge by watching this video.
5
Ready?
6
Cool!
7
Let's take a little tour of the store.
8
So the first thing we usually do when we enter the store is grab one of these things.
9
They come in really handy when you're shopping.
10
Imagine you're in a store with your American friend and you want to ask them to get one of these.
11
So what do you say?
12
What do we call it?
13
Yes, that's right.
14
It's a shopping cart.
15
A fun fact, in Great Britain,
16
Australia, and New Zealand, they call it a trolley.
17
And you might also hear the word buggy in addition to shopping cart in southern US and Canada.
18
And shockingly, this is not the full list,
19
but these are the most commonly used ones.
20
When we go through the store,
21
we go through departments, the specific sections or areas of the store that sell particular types of products.
22
They can also be referred to as sections.
23
There are a lot of different departments in the store,
24
among which might be the deli department,
25
clothing department, household goods, or seasonal items, and so on.
26
This is, for example, the produce department or the produce section.
27
So if you lost your American friend in the store and they text you and ask you,
28
where are you?
29
You can say, I'm in the XYZ section.
30
And these are called aisles.
31
Excuse me, where can I find the beans?
32
They're in aisle 10.
33
If there's something you need from way up there,
34
but you can't reach it,
35
how do you ask someone for help?
36
For instance, you could say to a staff member or someone tall,
37
excuse me, can you help me get the pack of cereal from the top shelf?
38
I have been in this situation countless times because of my height.
39
So these are called shelves where products are placed for display or storage.
40
And here we have another good word.
41
Display.
42
It's the arrangement of products in an attractive manner to catch customers' attention.
43
Each individual product displayed on the shelf we can call an item.
44
Do you know what these are called?
45
Let's imagine there is an item you need to get and this thing is nowhere to be found.
46
You go looking for an assistant to ask them about it.
47
So what do you say?
48
That's right, you would say,
49
excuse me, there's no price tag for this item.
50
So this is a price tag.
51
Let's move on.
52
Sections like these are called clearance.
53
It's a section in a store where products are heavily discounted to clear out inventory.
54
Do you like pasta, by the way?
55
Let's say that you had a dinner at your friend's last night
56
and you wanted to know what sauce they used for the pasta.
57
And let's say they told you that it was marinara sauce.
58
But there are different kinds of marinara.
59
So you would need to ask about the brand name to be able to get that specific one.
60
These are the brand names.
61
This is a checkout.
62
It's the area where you pay for your purchases with the help of a cashier.
63
But I, for instance, very rarely go to a checkout.
64
I prefer a self-checkout.
65
This is where customers can complete their own transactions.
66
Do you know what this action is called?
67
Let's say you did this twice and now you need to call an assistant
68
and describe your problem so that they can delete another item.
69
So what do you say?
70
you would say something like, Hi, excuse me.
71
I scanned this twice.
72
And they usually reply right away with, No worries.
73
And delete the second item on the list.
74
Thank you so list.
75
So this is called scanning an item and this is a receipt.
76
Let's go over a couple of more essential vocabulary words associated with stores.
77
In every store you will find products on sale or discounted.
78
I'm pretty sure we all know what these words mean but do you know what the difference is between them.
79
If you don't, no worries, I'll tell you.
80
So discounts show you a certain percentage of the original price
81
and when the product is on sale the price tag will indicate the exact new price.
82
Also if you didn't like the item you purchased or the quality wasn't what you had expected or it didn't fit,
83
you can return or exchange it.
84
To return something means to bring an item back and get a refund,
85
meaning you get your money back.
86
And to exchange something means to give one item back and get another one instead of that one.
87
Okay guys, that's it for this video.
88
If you have any questions,
89
let me know in the comments and I really hope
90
that you enjoyed this video and I'll see you in the next one.

逐步影子练习指南

为了有效提升你的口语能力和听力,建议采取影子练习(shadowing)的方式。以下是逐步指导:

  1. 观看视频 - 首先,观看这段视频,注意讲者如何使用和强调关键词汇。
  2. 聆听和跟读 - 关闭视频的字幕,尝试模仿讲者的发音和语调。可以随时暂停,重复他们的短语,以便理解句子的节奏。
  3. 记录重要词汇 - 根据视频中的词汇,创建自己的生词表,并尝试在日常生活中使用这些词汇。
  4. 与他人练习 - 找个学习伙伴,一起练习这些短语和句子。可以角色扮演在杂货店购物的场景,提升实用性。

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。
