to see you guys ok so let's get started

we're gonna watch the video and I'm

gonna pause it as we go and ask you

questions and you ask me questions and

we're just gonna have a nice

conversation English lesson together oh

my gosh someone just went by and chat

and I saw that they're from West Philly

it's like five miles from where I live I

was in West Philly before I moved over

here to Fishtown okay but let's get

started

we're gonna watch the video together I'm

gonna take myself here and I'm gonna

shrink myself down so that I don't block

the video sort of a cool feature

it's 6:30 7:00 in the morning wait a

second

oh that's about how well my eyes focus

when I get up what time do you get up I

was recently at a YouTube conference

where someone did a presentation on my

morning routine different people across

the world just taking their camera

through their morning showing people

what their life is like and I thought

this is fascinating I loved seeing other

cultures seeing what people did how they

lived just a normal day

so I decided today I'm gonna do the same

I'm gonna show you my morning routine

what is my morning like and of course

we'll turn it into an English lesson

along the way okay that's a good time to

take a pause how many people have seen

this video already let me see a show of

hands in chat if you've already seen

this video so we're gonna watch it

together and if you have any questions

if you're just now joining me live this

is a live video watch party lesson we're

checking out a lesson from the archives

and watching it together and I got

inspired to do this when

was at a YouTube get-together and it's

called creator summit and there was a

guy there who works for YouTube who is

giving a presentation on different

trends on YouTube and my morning routine

is a big trend that I guess people show

things like getting ready for school or

my makeup routine or something but then

there were also just people showing what

their life is like in the morning how do

they start their day and I thought that

it was so neat to see how people around

the world spent the first hour of their

day that's something I wish I could see

more of so anyway I decided to make this

video about my life what is the first

hour of my day like and I'm curious what

is the first hour of your day like let

me know in the comments I will be

checking them out alright but let's go

ahead and we're gonna keep watching the

lesson let me know when you have

questions just throw them there in the

chat what do you think the first thing I

do every morning is the first thing is

always nurse Sawyer he's a little too

distracted by the camera it's a nurse

right now nurse this word has several

different meanings

you can nurse a baby you can nurse the

sick person you can nurse the cold

you can even nurse a beer we'll go over

all of these meanings first I want to

stay the verb breastfeed can be used

interchangeably with this term and it

doesn't mean anything else so that can

be another option the first thing I do

okay

we're gonna stop here I'm gonna ask you

guys what is it like culturally where

you live what is the deal with

breastfeeding is it something that

people do do women do it openly is it

kind of not okay to do it in the u.s.

it's not very common it's something

you're just now starting to see

happening a little bit more when I was

born 42 years ago almost 41 and a half

years ago it was not the cultural norm

at all so it would be very uncommon no

women it was not even suggested really

that they do it in hospitals and this

kind of thing

now you know when you go to your

prenatal exams they might ask you about

it

they might they're like classes you can

take so more and more people are

starting to do it but it's still

something that I always felt a little

uncomfortable with doing in public and I

think other people feel uncomfortable

about it they kind of look away so what

is it like so someone says it's not okay

here where do you live it's normal in

Bulgaria Wow

that's awesome I would just yeah they do

it openly in Brazil that's that's great

I feel like I still can't say American

women do it openly we do it you know we

do it in public because we have to if

that's what we've chosen to do but I

think a lot of us still feel a little

bit bashful about it

and you know it wasn't until recently

that states had laws protecting the

right to do it I definitely know moms

who have been breastfeeding somewhere

like in a cafe and they've had people

come up and say you can't do that here

you have to go somewhere else that's

bothering people around you and this

kind of thing so now there are laws so

that it's clear that yes moms are

allowed to do that but you know not

everyone knows that it's the law and I

think there are a few states that maybe

do not have laws about it yet so slowly

the culture is evolving around this and

I think over time it will be more and

more accepted as more and more women are

choosing to do it because of the the

data but yeah I'm just really I was

really interested in what what is the

vibe like around that in public in other

countries so someone says in Ecuador

it's a natural to do it in public

common in Mexico very interesting thank

you guys thank you for answering my

question all right let's go back so as I

started to say there the word the phrase

nurse and nursing has a couple different

meanings one of them is breastfeeding

but there are a couple others that we're

about to learn here oops here we go

morning is breastfeeding my baby

notice that I'm not saying the tea here

that's common when the T comes between

two consonants we often drop it

breastfeed straight from the S sound

into the F sound breastfeed now let's

talk about all those different meanings

if we use this word as a noun it's

somebody who's been trained as a nurse

to care for the sick it's an occupation

my aunt is a surgical nurse as a verb

like I used it it can mean to breastfeed

to feed a baby it can also be used to

describe caring for someone who's sick

she nursed him back to health it can be

used to describe taking care of an

ailment I've been nursing a cold for two

weeks that means I'm taking throat

lozenges for it drinking lots of tea

trying to get better we also use it to

talk about a drink

usually an alcoholic one that we're

drinking very slowly just taking us okay

so how many of you guys knew all of

those terms before you probably knew

about the occupation nurse and nursing

it's like my niece who's going to

college next year is planning on

majoring in nursing so it's like the

topic of study she's gonna study nursing

she's going to be a nursing major but

then we also use it these other ways

like for example we would use it to

nurse somebody I'm nursing him back to

health I'm making him chicken soup I'm

just making sure that he is healthy and

comfortable I'm making sure he gets all

his medications I'm nursing him back to

health but then we would also use it not

with a person but with something that's

wrong so for example if I had a cold I

could say oh man I'm nursing my cold

with hot tea every morning lots of honey

trying to take naps and then we also use

it for a drink

usually an alcoholic drink something

that you're drinking very slowly and I

used as an example someone could say hey

Rachel can I get you another beer and I

could say no I'm still nursing this one

or if you're out with somebody and you

know you've had three glasses of wine

already and they're just still on their

first you could say wow you're really

nursing that glass of wine you're really

taking your time with it so

don't know how nursing came to be used

in that way with a beverage taking your

time drinking really slowly but it is

one of the meetings meanings okay let's

go back and see what else whoops we can

learn you know it's sort of weird when

I'm live-streaming and I'm also trying

to control everything Oh

shrink myself down switch to the other

shot it's hard okay here we go

every once in a while Rachel can I get

you a drink no thanks I'm still nursing

this beer this is something new this is

different from our routine looking at a

camera okay so how many of you make your

bed show of hands let me know in the

chat do you ever make your bed I'm not

great at it it's not my favorite thing

to do so also back to what we were just

talking about someone says what does

ailment mean an ailment is just another

word for sickness and we could say you

know hey what ails you it's a little bit

more formal it's not it would be more

casual to say all right do you feel sick

or something like that but an ailment is

a sickness you know a sore throat he has

a stomach ailment maybe like he's not

digesting things well or he's just not

feeling well in the tummy in the

intestines okay most people Paolo says

almost never to making his bed so when

Pedro says his wife does it nice a lot

of people are like sometimes and so

people are like yes always oh man I'm

I'm I don't do it very often anymore at

that phase of my life I guess I did it

because I mentioned it but no it's not

something

do very much I wish I did I like it when

the room is nice and tidy and the bed is

made but I don't actually do it myself

that much okay we're gonna keep on

learning also my gosh Sawyer he was so

tiny so cute back then I just love I

just love looking at video that when he

was so small and cute chaotic chaos here

the CH makes a hard case ound it's also

common to make a CH sound like in chest

or an SH sound like in Chicago Shh

CH makes a K in choir echo chemistry

anchor stomach Orchestra and many others

you can't tell how a CH should be

pronounced just by looking at it

you have to know word by word this is

why spelling and pronunciation is so

tricky in English then I head down okay

so that's frustrating isn't it that you

can't always know how to pronounce

something just by looking at it and that

we have all these different

pronunciations for CH I wanted to answer

a question that came through in chat

someone said what does it mean when

you're what does it mean to major in

something when you're talking about

studies and just a quick hello to anyone

who's joining us we're live and if

you're like what's going on we're having

a watch party where we're watching one

of our old lessons I'm keeping my eye on

chat and as questions and comments come

up we're stopping the video we're

talking I'm answering your questions so

one of the questions was we were talking

about nursing and I was saying the

different ways that that word can be

used and one of them is it's a it's a

degree it's a major it's a field of

study so if someone asked what is

nursing mean or what is major mean when

you're talking about studies so major is

like a concentration it's the main thing

you study at school so for example I

went to school and I studied lots of

things biology chemistry writing you

know English classes all sorts of stuff

but my major was computer sign

it's an applied math that was the main

thing I studied when I got a degree that

was what my degree was in you can major

in English you can major in music you

can major in theater art biology

chemistry you can be a pre-med major

right so that's how we use the word

major then there's also the word minor

which means another thing that you've

studied a lot but it's like secondary to

the major so for example I started out

college I was going to be a math major

and a music minor so I was still gonna

take a lot of music and I was gonna earn

enough credit so I was gonna take enough

credits to earn a minor but then I ended

up making it a major two so I ended up

with two majors but that's it might be a

common thing when you're talking to

people who are in college in the u.s.

what are you majoring in and they may

tell you oh and then I'm also doing an

art minor and that's what that means

it's like a chosen curriculum students

get to choose what they take but they

have to take certain classes and they

have to take a certain amount of classes

in order to earn that minor and you know

it might be something they do just for

fun or it might be something they do

because they think it could help them

get a job later to say oh well I minored

in blah blah blah

or whatever so major and minor someone

says is minor similar to undergraduate

no undergraduate is what we call college

or university it's you're basically it's

four years of study and during those

four years you get a bachelor's degree

and you major in something and you might

also minor in something okay I hope that

explains it a little bit more let's keep

going with this lesson and see what we

learn next and I am keeping an eye on

the chat so keep it coming I love all

those heart emojis that Jaclyn is giving

me they're sparkly hearts and I love it

all right let's keep going

there is to have breakfast with Stoney

and David I don't feel like cereal so

I'm gonna make an egg does anybody want

an egg no okay I used the phrase feel

like you can use this interchangeably

with want except the form of the verb

will change I feel like going to bed I

want to go to bed so with feel like we

follow it with the ing form of a verb

feel like going with want the next verb

is in the infinitive want to go wanna go

but the meaning of the two sentences is

the same this applies to the negative as

well I don't feel like having cereal I

don't want to have cereal but when I set

it I followed it by a noun

I don't feel like cereal so I'm gonna

make an egg I don't feel like cereal so

nothing else changes I don't feel like

cereal I don't want cereal okay the next

time you are talking about what you want

and don't want try to practice with both

of those try to say I feel like or I

don't feel like I feel like going out to

dinner tonight I want to go out to

dinner tonight

I don't feel like going out to dinner

tonight I want to cook at home tonight

try using those and just get used to

using both phrases because I think it's

nice to have more than one way to say

something depending on how you want to

express yourself okay a couple questions

coming in someone was talking about

major and they said is that the same

thing as a concentration yes that's

probably equivalent to what you might

call a concentration where you live

someone says how can I pronounce words

that end with Edie so there are three

different pronunciations for that and I

do have a video that goes over the rules

this is one thing in American English

where we actually have rules for it so

you can probably search on YouTube

Rachel's English

Edie endings and find that video Oh

someone says the babies are so cute

thank you I think so too

okay let's keep going

what did we end up having for breakfast

well I can tell you stony head cereal

because that's pretty much what he wants

every day of the week that kid loves

cereal pits Tony your mouth is totally

full so we can't understand you so take

your time chew swallow then say what you

were trying to say

good that's good oh it's so cute good

daddy

okay so there was sort of some dead time

they were we were chewing chewing and it

just it made me think I don't know I

just what do you guys like to eat for

breakfast what and who do you eat

breakfast with what is your morning

routine like as far as that goes maybe

you skip breakfast but like I said at

the beginning of this video I so wish

that more people took a video of the

first hour of their life and edit it

into a little five or eight minute thing

because I think it's fascinating really

interesting way to see not just

culturally what happens but also what

fit the family dynamic and relationships

are like and then of course you get to

kind of see the food choices that people

make in the morning which varies so

dramatically culture to culture and I

think that's also really interesting

keeping an eye there on your on your

comments coming in someone is wishing my

family health thank you so much cassia

says I eat breakfast with my family

wonderful lovely what's the difference

between from and of okay that's a big

old grammar lesson and I'm sorry I don't

have that prepared right now okay

someone does a smoothly a smoothie and

omelet and peanut butter sandwich

that's a lot of food you know Saturday

mornings in my house now since since

we've been in quarantine I've been

making sourdough pancakes I've gotten

you know pretty good at it it's like

five or six times now that I've done it

I've figured out exactly how I want to

make the recipe I have all my tools set

up stoney loves it actually we all love

it it's it's tasty but do you guys

follow me on instagram because i I

posted an Instagram story about it with

just showing all the steps and yeah it

was fun so tomorrow Saturday gonna be

doing that again apple cider vinegar

I've heard that's a thing that some

people take in the more

I don't know why I assume there are some

health benefits for it and how much do

you take just like a tablespoon like one

swallow it seems like it would be

something that you do for health and

it's not gonna fill you up

someone has sweet yam and coffee that

sounds good you know what else I want to

try for breakfast is I want to try for

the first time making croissants have

you ever made a croissant if you have

let me know in chat because I think I'm

gonna try it I think it's gonna be my

next baking project alright let's

continue on with the video with the

breakfast

the most common breakfast in the u.s. is

probably cereal with milk that's what

David and stony had what do you usually

have for breakfast posted to Instagram

tagging me at Rachel's English I love to

see this kind of thing what people eat

in different cultures let's have

breakfast together here David's talking

about getting together with a friend and

his kids this is a phrasal verb that

means to meet to spend time together you

could also use it as a noun

we're having a get-together at our house

this weekend why don't you come if you

use it with it

the meaning is different get it together

means to get organized or stabilized

after chaos for example if stony is

having a tantrum we could say get it

together stony or at a busy time in my

life lately

I missed a meeting because I totally

forgot I apologized and said I'm so

sorry I forgot I just can't get it

together these days get together okay

that's a good place to pause get it

together

someone is asking me in chat if I'm

going to be doing these on a regular

schedule I did I did

schedule this one like three days ago

but I didn't share it so I don't know

some people found it anyway I don't know

how they

it I didn't share it because I'm still

just working out how everything works

technically and I felt intimidated by

thinking about there being a bunch of

people on the live feed so I will

eventually I'll get it together and I

will publish that link ahead of time and

I'll probably even do it on a schedule

the same time every week probably but

I'll start sharing it more in the

YouTube community tab I'll share it to

my mailing list be sure to sign up for

my mailing list if you haven't already

it's the easiest way for me to get in

touch with you guys let's see to do that

just go to Rachel's English comm and at

the bottom something will pop up and

it's like do you want a 10-day mini

course and you put your email in there

and then you get at it to the mailing

list but you can also follow me on

Instagram I will post about my life

classes there as well but I'm going to

get it together there I am using that

phrase I'm gonna get it together I'm

gonna get organized once I feel really

comfortable with this new live streaming

software and I'm gonna start announcing

it ahead of time and you know I decided

I was going to do it here because I'm

stuck inside all day every day that's

not true I go on walks some but in this

strange time of kovat 19 I know you know

a lot of people are hanging around the

house more we're less active we're going

out less and I just wanted a way to

connect with people more so I'm planning

on doing it from May and then also

probably June and we'll just sort of go

week by week and see see how well the

format works see how well you guys like

it but if you do find you like it and

you learn something from it then the

next week please share it with a friend

and we can get even more people here on

the live stream once I feel like I

really know what I'm doing

someone says eventually means like some

day yeah I would say that's a good

another good word to use someday

eventually it means at some point in the

future I'm not really sure when someday

I'll get it together eventually I'll get

organized

that kind of thing someone says can you

explain the word huge I'm not sure if

you mean pronunciation or meaning huge H

consonant u diphthong Hugh huge jake

onson and it means very very big alright

let's go back to our lesson

go back to breakfast time see what's

going on there in the fat the

philadelphia breakfast table get it

together is to recover from a period of

chaos the flashing part here's tony's

talking about a camera that had a

blinking light did you notice that stony

can't say there yet yeah he can't make a

th I've worked with him on it several

times and he just can't coordinate

putting the tongue tip through the teeth

I know this is a huge challenge for my

non-native students so I just wanted you

to know it takes time Stoney's been

speaking English for over two years now

and he still doesn't have that sound

yeah I'm interested to see when he picks

it up and breakfast just continues with

random loud noises

[Applause]

the rest okay I hope nobody had the

volume too loud there because stony

still does random loud noises oh my gosh

that is one of the things this phase

with a one year old and a four year old

the volume at which they speak is so

annoying it's like everything is shouted

mom

there's just no regular voice there's no

indoor voice that's that's what we

always try to say when we went on to be

quiet is we'll say use your indoor voice

indoor voice please and it's a challenge

I know that it's a phase and that in a

few years he will have a regular

speaking voice but right now it's just

like everything is shouting okay so I'm

just keeping an eye on the chat and I'm

seeing I'm seeing the hearts I'm seeing

the love thank you guys so much for

being here so someone says did your son

pick it up did stoney eventually figure

out how to make the th yes he did and it

was probably when he was about three

years old and I know other parents who

have a kid around that age and they've

said you know that it took a

surprisingly long amount of time for

their kids to start making that sound

now Sawyer who has so many words it's

funny he's only 18 months old 19 months

now he knows so many words way more than

your average kid his age but he still

doesn't have that many sounds so we have

to kind of figure them out a lot of his

words sound the same but I know to him

they all have their own meaning and I if

I look at the context I can tell what

he's talking about but he really he is

waiting for more sounds to become

available to him I'm really trying to

teach him s and this kind of thing I've

noticed ending consonants or something

that don't come don't come along

immediately it's just beginning

consonant and vowel is what they start

at he's now starting to put some ending

consonants on but it's interesting to

watch how language skills evolve what

they

with how they build and that kind of

thing all right well I'm gonna keep an

eye on chat but I'm gonna go ahead and

start okay someone says I love your hair

thank you

it's getting really long I would go get

it cut but all of the places to get it

cut are currently closed probably

reopened in June I'm not sure all right

let's keep going with the lesson

continues with cleaning up the kids how

was get you pronounced have you noticed

that it's really common to hear a CH in

this phrase when a word that ends in a T

is followed by you or your that T often

turns into a CH choo-choo

get you there's no rule about doing this

or not it's just a habit that happens

and many Americans do it a lot of the

time if you don't do it you can do a

stop T get you get you

okay there are so many good questions

coming in and Jat hold on them let me

make myself bigger okay here we go

so someone was asking about okay what

slang words do Americans use in their

daily life you know a lot of adults

don't use very much slang it kind of

depends on the age of the people that

you're hanging out with but I do have a

series I did over the summer a couple

years ago summer of slang and I have I

think it's about thirty different slang

terms and a lot of them are still used

so you can check that out

but I would I think also it's very

important to study idioms and you know

if you're coming to the US and you're

going to be going to a university and

you're going to be hanging out with a

bunch of 18 to 22 year olds they're

gonna use all sorts of slang that I

probably wouldn't even always understand

you have to just ask what does that mean

and then when they explain it if they

use an idiom say I still don't get it

and just keep asking until oh you get it

also if you ever see a slang term used

and you don't know what it means you can

ask that person or if it's a video put

it in the comments or you can put a

comment in my video and I'll try to

answer it for you someone says can you

speak more slowly please I will try

thank you that's a good reminder it's

hard for me to remember to do that I

have to admit when I'm live and I'm

thinking all these things and I'm just

like trying to get it all out I speak

too fast and you know when I do a video

I can put closed captions on subtitles

so that everyone can follow along but of

course when I'm going live I can't do

that okay someone says what's the

difference between boss and bus lock and

luck those are two vowels that a lot of

students get mixed up oh and I have a

video on that

I'm not even sure how to search it

actually because I have so many videos

but I can't remember exactly what I

called that video but really I think

watching a video can help but if you

don't hear the difference which is true

for a lot of people the main thing to do

actually is do a lot of listening

practice find a bunch of words with awe

and a bunch of words with uh

minimal pairs if you can like boss and

bus and just listen to that over and

over I have a lot of that in my Academy

and you may or may not be in my Academy

if you are definitely go to the vowels

course where you'll find all that but

I've had students who said I can't hear

the difference between all and uh or E

and a seat and sit for example and so

I'll assign them an audio file that I've

created of a bunch of minimal pairs and

they'll listen to it for a week and

without trying they hear a difference

they've exposed themselves to it enough

so that they start hearing a difference

and I found that when my students learn

that way when they they don't know the

difference ahead of time and they don't

have an idea of what it should be and

they have to learn purely through that

listening I found that actually a lot of

times they end up sounding very good

with those vowels right from the

beginning right after they hear the

difference maybe even better than

students who could hear the difference

but couldn't necessarily produce the

difference so students who start not

being able to hear the difference that

do this intense listening practice

often end up sounding very native on

those sounds pretty quickly once their

ear sorts them out and figures out the

two different sounds they're hearing so

minimal pairs practice I think is really

important when you're going to English

which has a lot of vowel and diphthong

sounds from a language that might have

fewer sounds and a lot of our sounds

start to sound similar minimal pair

practice can be really important

okay someone says and what situations

can be use excuse me and sorry so you

would say excuse me if you bump into

somebody or if you need to interrupt

somebody excuse me

is anyone sitting here or that kind of

thing you could say sorry in both of

those situations - but then we also use

sorry in other situations where we

wouldn't use excuse me like when you

need to apologize when you've done

something wrong sorry sorry in a way

that you wouldn't use excuse me sorry so

excuse me for interrupting for bumping

actually I have a really fun video on

excuse me and the different ways we use

it and the way we pronounce it because

we do a pretty big reduction there so

see if you can do on YouTube do a search

on Rachel's English excuse me and see if

it pops up it probably will someone says

do Americans understand English songs

like rap pretty easily yeah for the most

part but definitely not all songs I mean

I sometimes can't understand what a

lyric is and I'll go look it up

okay someone says can you say strengths

quickly strengths strengths strengths

strengths strengths I could definitely

see someone saying strengths leaving out

the th making an NG and a K sound

strengths what are your strengths

actually I think I talked about that in

a video that I did on interviewing for a

job because strengths and weaknesses are

two of the things that they might ask

you about in a job interview you can go

to youtube and do Rachel's English job

interview I've actually got quite a few

videos on that topic but I'm pretty sure

I mentioned that in one of them okay

we're gonna head back to the lesson a

lot of questions are coming in I love

this so fun to be with you guys in the

chat you guys are welcome in my chat

feed any day all right let's keep going

Sonne you want these waffle pretzels for

your snack right

do you want one right now special treat

snack we all need a good snack every

once in a while this is not a full meal

but a little bit of food that we eat

between meals snack at our house we get

up anywhere between 6 and 6:45 Stoney

doesn't leave for school until after

9:00 so we have a lot of time to fill up

sometimes we go out for a walk but often

we just play at home okay someone asked

about in the chat it was a question

about resonance is that the most

important hair linguistic feature to get

accurate American pronunciation that's a

great question and on your calendar mark

let me see May 26 May 26 is a Tuesday

and I have a video coming out it's all

about placement and resonance and how

your voice resonates in your body in a

way that will either make you sound very

American or make you sound not very

American at all and if your goal is to

sound more American and more natural

then you'll definitely want to watch

this because when you address your

placement and your resonance of your

voice in your body then every time you

speak it's affected so check it out I'm

excited about it I just finished editing

it today it's gonna be it's gonna be

good it's a long one it's like a

45-minute video I go through all of

these different ways of explaining it

and then we look at a bunch of students

they a bunch of videos that you guys

sent if you'll remember back in I think

it was November at the end of 2019 I put

out a video asking for you guys to

record a dialogue for me and then I was

going to make videos for them videos on

YouTube using those as a way to teach

and both of those videos are coming out

in May and they're really fun so part of

that placement video

me working through the videos you guys

submitted imitating your placement

talking about what you can change and

tweak to make your placement better

actually using the word tweak right now

reminds me I saw in chat a few minutes

ago someone said what does tweak mean

tweak means a small change a minor

change and sometimes just a little tweak

can make a big difference right for

example with the placement as you'll see

a little tweak with how you use your

voice or let it resonate can make a big

difference in how you sound so that's

the word tweak wonderful advice and

advise ok that's a tough minimal pair

the difference is an ending s versus an

ending Z advice which is spelled with a

see e has the S sound advice but the

verb advise spelled with the letter S

that's the Z sound the Z sound is weak

so it actually can even sound like the

letter S it's just a very weak form of

it but those two words sound pretty

similar advise is a little bit less

common I think it might be stressed a

little bit more and also context you'll

always know from the context what word

it is because are we using it as a verb

or are we using it as a noun

advice is the noun and advise is the

verb okay let's finish out this video

then I'm gonna come back to chat and

answer a few more questions

and then I'm gonna shut down the live

feed because it is a Friday we're

getting close to 5:00 and I have to go

help David with the kids he is taking

care of them right now all right let's

keep going did you hear the you

reduction yeah yeah we're not skipping

teeth I'm sure many parents can relate

to this when you skip something you

don't do something that is part of a

regular sequence in this case brushing

teeth in the morning is definitely part

of our morning routine

merci merci this is an exclamation of

exasperation surprise anger or

frustration I was feeling all of those

things luckily he did decide to brush

his teeth but now we brush teeth it's

just part of getting ready for school my

camera died after that we got stony

dressed and David took him to school

then he came home and took Sawyer while

I went to work and that is our morning

routine I hope you liked this video I

hope okay I did get Stoney to brush his

teeth I'm glad to say he brushes them

every day and I don't even have to force

him to do it anymore someone says the

toothbrush is like mine

that's awesome you guys have the same

toothbrush okay so thank you guys so

much for being here I'm gonna wrap it up

to wrap something up means to end it so

that I can go out and be with my kids so

let's see this video is about one year

old so both boys are about 1 year older

now Sawyer is walking he's big he's big

for his age he's walking he's talking a

lot he has this amazing amount of curly

hair and you know it wasn't curly in

this video it it got curly like six

months ago or something and now it's

getting so long and out of control I

would use the word unruly he has unruly

hair it's just like big and frizzy and

curly and we need to get it cut but like

I said nothing's open

and I just I feel like with sharp

scissors around his head I just I'm not

I've never cut hair before and I don't

think 19 month old should be my first

attempt with he'd probably be jerking

his head around a lot but yeah they're

both they're older they're a lot of fun

we're having fun

you know we just finished up week seven

of shelter-in-place so it's a challenge

it's very hard with the two kids but

we're making it work we're making it

happen I hope you guys are all staying

happy and healthy and safe out there

I know a lot of you are also in you know

shelter-in-place or others shut down

orders and it's really different it's a

really different way of living isn't it

and who knows what the next phase of

normal will look like but I appreciate

you guys all for being here unruly hair

that's right thank you guys so much for

being here and I will do another

livestream soon I'm not totally sure

when but check out my youtube channel

the community tab I will post it there

also follow me on Instagram or Rachel's

English I will post it there and I

promise I'll schedule it a couple days

in advance

and I think that's it guys thanks for

being here happy Friday have a wonderful

weekend and I'll see you

很高兴在这里见到大家，我知道现在是

晚上 10:00。 现在在巴黎下午 4:00

在费城，大家都过得怎么样，

大家都很好，只要看看

聊天记录就好了 Roy 准时来了，

我们有来自巴西的人，有人说

我无法观看这个视频，它还

没有开始

，现在才刚刚开始，所以我 来自

葡萄牙 嘿 Carlos

很高兴在这里见到大家

关于它是如何

工作的

我选择了一个我

想和

你们一起观看的旧视频 把

它们放在那里我会尽力

关注它们，我会回答问题

并阅读你的评论，我们会从

那里开始，好吧，有人问

我什么时候生日，

我的问题是有没有人

知道什么时候 我的生日是

我在其他

视频和其他视频中提到过几次

设置有人知道我的

生日是 11 月 5 日，我要转身了，我

将在 2020 年满 42 岁，这

将是美好的一年，好吧，我们这里有一个

多米尼加共和国，我们有印度，哦，

它过得真快，我几乎看不懂

墨西哥城 有人说是

你身后的照片 是的 这是照片 这

不是我的办公室 我实际上不在这个

房间里 我在绿屏前

我知道你知道它还在变得更好

所以我不知道 在绿屏前看起来并不完美，

但这是一张库存

照片 我觉得它看起来像一个漂亮

的房间

不管怎样 好 好 打电话 好 我

你是对的 这不是我的办公室 我们有

印度 哥伦比亚 阿根廷 迪拜 也许

有人说俄亥俄州 我是

伯塔也快 42 岁的人 那

太棒了

萨尔瓦多 秘鲁 意大利 很棒

哥斯达黎加 阿根廷 迪拜 伊朗 伊朗 泰国

德克萨斯 嘿 我在得克萨斯州的兄弟们太好

了 见到你们，好吧，让我们开始吧，

我们会看视频，我

会暂停视频，问你们

问题，你们问我问题，

我们会

一起上一堂愉快的对话英语课 oh

my gosh 有人刚刚过去聊天

，我看到他们来自西费城

，离我住的地方大约 5 英里，

在我搬到菲什敦之前我在西费城，

好吧，但让我们

开始吧，

我们要一起看视频 '

我要把自己带到这里，我会

缩小自己，这样我就不会

阻止视频，这是一个很酷的功能

它是早上 6:30 早上 7:00 等一下

哦，那是关于我的眼睛如何集中注意力

时 我起床你什么时候起床

我最近参加了一个 YouTube 会议

，有人在会上介绍了我的

早晨例行活动，世界各地不同的人

只是带着他们的

相机度过他们的早晨，向人们

展示他们的生活是什么样的，我认为

这很有趣 我喜欢看到其他

文化看到 了解人们做了什么他们

过着普通的一天

所以我决定今天我也

要这样做 好吧，现在是暂停的好

时机有多少人看过

这个视频已经让我

在聊天中看到举手，如果你已经看过

这个视频，那么我们将

一起观看，如果你有任何问题，

如果 你刚刚加入我的现场这

是一个现场视频观看派对课程我们正在

从档案中查看一个课程

并一起观看它我

在YouTube聚会时受到启发，它

被称为创作者峰会 那里有一个

为 YouTube 工作的人，他在 YouTube 上

介绍不同的

趋势，而我的早晨习惯

是一个大趋势，我猜人们会展示

诸如准备上学

或我的化妆习惯之类的东西，但后来

也有 只是人们展示

什么 他们的生活就像

早上一样 他们是如何开始新的

一天的 这个

关于我的生活的视频我一天的第一个

小时是什么样的，我很好奇

你一天的第一个小时是什么样的让

我知道在评论中我会

检查出来的，但是让

我们继续，我们会 继续观看

课程 有问题时让我知道

只要在聊天中提出问题

你认为

我每天早上做的第一件事就是第一件事

总是护士 Sawyer 他有点

被镜头分心了 现在是护士

护士这个词有几个

不同的意思

你可以照顾婴儿你可以

照顾病人你可以照顾感冒

你甚至可以喝啤酒我们会先介绍

所有这些含义我想

留下动词母乳喂养可以

互换使用 用这个词 这

并不意味着其他任何东西 所以这可能

是另一种选择 我要做的第一件事

好的

我们要停在这里 我要问

你们在文化上是什么样的

你们居住的地方

母乳喂养有什么问题 是什么

人们确实这样做 女性公开

这样做 在美国这样做是不是有点不好

这不是很常见，

当我 42 年前出生时，你现在才开始看到这种情况发生得更多一些，

大约 41

年半前，这根本不是文化规范

，所以没有女性，这将是非常罕见的

甚至没有真正

建议他们在医院做

这种事情，

现在你知道，当你去

产前检查时，他们可能会问你

这件事，

他们可能就像你可以上的课，

所以越来越多的人

开始 这样做，但这仍然

是我

在公共场合做的时候总是觉得有点不舒服，我

认为其他人对此感到不

舒服，他们有点把目光移开，所以这

是什么感觉，所以有人说这里不好

，你住在哪里，这很正常

保加利亚哇

，太棒了，我会的，他们

在巴西公开这样做，那太好了，

我觉得我仍然不能说美国

女性公开

这样做 我选择了 o 但我

认为我们中的很多人仍然

对此感到有点害羞

，你知道直到最近

，各州才有法律保护

这样做的权利

有人站

出来说你不能在这里这样做

你必须去其他地方

打扰你周围的人和

这种事情所以现在有法律

很清楚是的妈妈

可以这样做但是你 不是

每个人都知道这是法律，我

认为有几个州可能

还没有关于它的法律，但

文化围绕这个发展缓慢，

我认为随着时间的推移，

随着越来越多的女性，它会越来越被接受 之所以

选择这样做是因为

数据，但是是的，我

真的很感兴趣，

在其他国家/地区的公共场合，周围的氛围是什么，

所以有人说在厄瓜多尔

，在公共场合这样做是很自然

的 墨西哥很有趣

谢谢你们，谢谢你们回答我的

问题，好吧，让我们回去，所以当我

开始说这个词的时候，

护士和护理这个词有几个不同的

含义，其中一个是母乳喂养，

但还有一些其他的我们

要讲 在这里学习 哎呀，我们去

早上是母乳喂养我的宝宝

注意我不是说茶

当 T 出现在两个辅音之间时很常见

我们经常把它

从 S 音直接母乳喂养

到 F 音母乳喂养现在让我们

谈谈所有 那些不同的含义

如果我们把这个词用作名词 它

是受过护士培训的人

来照顾病人 这是一种职业

我的阿姨是外科护士 作为动词

就像我用它一样 它可能意味着要母乳喂养

来喂养婴儿 也可以用来

描述照顾生病的人

她让他恢复健康 它可以

用来描述照顾

疾病 我已经感冒了两个

星期了，这意味着我正在

为此服用润喉糖 喝很多茶

试图变得更好，我们也用它来

谈论一种饮料，

通常是一种酒精饮料，

我们喝得非常慢

护士和护理

就像我的侄女

明年要上大学的计划

是护理专业，所以这就像

她要学习护理

她将成为护理专业的学习主题，

但我们也使用其他方式

，例如我们 会用它来

护理某人 我正在护理他恢复

健康 我正在给他做鸡汤 我

只是确保他健康

舒适 我确保他得到所有

的药物 我正在护理他

健康，但我们也不会用它来

治疗一个人，而是用它来解决一些

问题，例如，如果我感冒了，我

可以说哦，伙计，我

每天早上都在用热茶来治疗感冒，很多蜂蜜

试图小睡，然后 我们也用

它来喝酒 k

通常是一种酒精饮料

，你喝得很慢的东西，

我举个例子，有人可能会说，嘿，

瑞秋，我可以再给你一杯啤酒吗，我

可以说不，我还在喝这个，

或者如果你和某人出去了 你

知道你已经喝了三杯酒

而且他们还在喝

第一杯你可以说哇你真的

在喝那杯酒你真的很

花时间喝它所以

不知道如何保养 开始

以这种方式与饮料一起使用，让

你慢慢喝，但这

是会议的意义之一，好吧，让我们

回去看看还有什么我们可以

学到的，你知道当

我在直播时这有点奇怪 我也在

努力控制一切 哦，

缩小自己 切换到另一个

镜头 很难，我们

每隔一段时间就去一次 瑞秋 我可以给

你喝一杯 不，谢谢 我还在喝

这种啤酒 这是新的东西 这是

不同于我们平时看

相机的习惯，好吧，伙计 你们

中的每个人都举手在床上让我

知道你有没有整理过你的床我

不擅长这样做不是我最喜欢

做的事情也回到我们刚刚

谈论的内容某人说什么是

疾病 意思是疾病只是疾病的另一种

说法，我们可以说你

知道你有什么病，它

有点正式，不是

说好吧，你感觉不舒服

或类似的东西会更随意，但疾病是

一种疾病 你知道喉咙痛他

有胃病也许就像他没有

很好地消化东西或者他只是

在肠子里的肚子里感觉不舒服

好吧大多数人保罗说

几乎从不铺床所以当

佩德罗说他的妻子做得很好

很多人有时都喜欢，所以

人们总是喜欢，哦，伙计，我是，

我在我生命的那个阶段不再经常这样做了，

我想我这样做是

因为我提到过，但不，这不是

什么

做很多我希望我做我喜欢它

当房间是 漂亮整洁，床铺已经铺好，

但我自己并没有

那么做，好吧，我们还要继续

学习我的天哪，Sawyer，

那时他太小太可爱了，我只是喜欢我

只是喜欢看视频，当 他

是如此的小而可爱 混乱的混乱在

这里 CH 使一个硬壳 o

使 CH 听起来像在胸部

或 SH 像在芝加哥的声音也很常见 Shh

CH 在合唱团回声化学

锚胃管弦乐队和许多其他人中发出 K

不能仅仅通过看它来判断一个CH应该如何

发音

你必须逐字知道这就是

为什么拼写和发音

在英语中如此棘手然后我低下头好吧

，这很令人沮丧不是你

不能吗 总是

只看一眼就知道如何发音，而且

我们对 CH 有所有这些不同的

发音 我想回答

一个在聊天中出现的问题

有人说当

你是什么意思时，主修

某事意味着什么 当你谈论

学习时 向

所有加入我们的人打个招呼，我们正在直播，如果

你喜欢正在发生的事情，我们将举办

一个观看派对，在那里我们正在观看我们的一

堂旧课，我会密切关注

聊天和 出现问题和

评论我们正在停止我们正在谈论的视频

我正在回答你的问题所以

其中一个问题是我们正在

谈论护理，我在

说这个词可以使用的不同方式

，其中一个是 这是一个

学位 这是一个专业 这是一个

研究领域 所以如果有人问什么是

护理的意思或什么是专业的意思，当

你谈论学习时，专业

就像一个浓度它是

你在学校学习的主要内容，例如

我去学校学习了很多

东西生物化学写作你

知道英语课各种各样的东西

但是我的专业是计算机标志

这是一门应用数学

当我获得学位时我主要学习的

是我的学位 你可以

主修英语 你可以主修 音乐 你

可以主修戏剧 艺术 生物学

化学 你可以是医学预科专业

对，这就是我们使用专业这个词的方式

然后还有一个未成年人这个词

，这意味着你已经

学习了很多东西，但它就像是专业的

次要 例如，我刚开始上

大学时，我将主修数学

和辅修音乐，所以我仍然会学习

很多音乐，我会获得

足够的学分，所以我会获得足够的

学分来获得辅修，但后来我

最终把它变成了两个专业，所以我最终选择

了两个专业，但是

当你和

美国大学的人交谈时，这可能是很常见的事情

你主修什么，他们可能会

告诉你哦，然后我也在

辅修艺术，这就是意味着

它就像一个选择的课程，学生

可以选择他们所学的，但他们

必须参加某些课程，他们

必须参加 一定数量的课程

，以赚取那个未成年人，你知道

这可能是他们只是为了好玩而做的事情，

或者这可能是他们做的事情，

因为他们认为这可以帮助他们

以后找到工作说哦，我辅修

了等等

诸如此类或其他任何主要和次要的东西，有人

说是次要的，类似于本科

没有本科就是我们所说的学院

或大学，您基本上是

四年的学习，在这

四年中，您获得了学士学位，

并且您主修某事，然后您 可能

也有一些小事，好吧我希望能

多解释一点，让我们

继续这节课，看看我们

接下来会学到什么，我会密切

关注聊天，所以请继续关注我喜欢所有

那些心的表情符号 是 Jaclyn 给

我的，它们是闪闪发光的心，我喜欢它，

好吧，让我们继续前进

，与 Stoney 和 David 一起吃早餐

好吧，我用了感觉

就像你可以用这个短语

和想要互换使用，除了动词的形式

会改变

go with want 下一个动词

是不定式 want to go want to go

但是两个句子的意思

是一样的 这也适用于

否定句 我不想吃麦片 我

不想吃麦片 但是当 我设置了

它后面跟着一个名词

我不喜欢麦片所以我

要做一个鸡蛋我不喜欢麦片所以

没有其他变化我不喜欢

麦片我不想要麦片好吧 下次

当你谈论你想要什么

和不想要什么的时候试着和他们一起

练习试着说我觉得我 ike 或者我

不想

今晚出去吃饭 我今晚

想出去吃饭 我

今晚不想出去吃饭 我想今晚在家做饭

试着用这些然后习惯

使用这两个短语，因为我认为

根据你想

表达自己的方式，有不止一种表达方式很好

相当于

你住的地方的注意力集中

有人说我如何发音

以 Edie 结尾的单词，所以有三种

不同的发音，我

确实有一个视频可以超越规则

这是美式英语

中的一件事，我们 实际上有它的规则，所以

你可能可以在 YouTube 上搜索

Rachel 的英语

Edie 结局并找到那个视频哦，

有人说婴儿很可爱，

谢谢你我觉得太好了，

让我们继续吧，

我们做了什么 最后早餐

吃得很好我可以告诉你硬头麦片

因为这几乎是他

一周中每一天都想要的那个孩子喜欢

麦片坑托尼你的嘴已经

满了所以我们无法理解你所以

慢慢来咀嚼吞咽 说你

想说的

好，这很好哦，这太可爱了，好

爸爸，

好吧，所以有一些死时间，

他们正在咀嚼咀嚼，

这让我觉得我不知道我

只是你们喜欢什么 早餐吃

什么，你吃

什么早餐，你早上

的例行活动是怎样的

他们的生活并将其编辑

成五到八分钟的小东西，

因为我认为这是一种非常

有趣的方式，不仅可以从

文化上了解发生的事情，还可以了解

适合家庭动态和

人际关系的情况，然后当然可以

有点看到人们早上做出的食物选择，

不同文化之间的差异如此之

大，我

认为这也很有趣

，密切关注你的

评论，有人希望我的

家人健康，非常感谢你，决明子

说我 和我的家人一起吃早餐

美妙的可爱 有什么

区别 from 和 of 好吧 那是一堂

古老的语法课 我很抱歉我

现在没有准备好

很多食物你知道星期六

早上在我家自从

我们被隔离以来我一直在

做酵母煎饼我已经

让你知道它很擅长

现在我已经做了五六次了

我已经弄清楚我想如何

制作这个食谱 我已经设置了所有工具

非常喜欢它实际上我们都喜欢

它 它很好吃 但是你们

在 Instagram 上关注我吗 因为我

发布了一个 Instagram 故事 ab

只显示所有步骤就可以了，是的，这

很有趣，所以明天星期六会

再做一次苹果醋

它的好处以及

你需要多少就像一汤匙

一样吞咽它似乎

是你为健康所做的事情而且

它不会让你填满

某人有甜山药和咖啡

听起来不错你知道我还想要什么

尝试早餐是我

第一次尝试做羊角面包

你有没有做过羊角面包如果

你在聊天中告诉我因为我想我

会尝试一下我想这将是我的

下一个烘焙项目好吧让我们

继续 关于早餐的视频

美国最常见的早餐

可能是麦片加牛奶 这就是

大卫和斯托尼吃

的早餐 你通常早餐吃什么 张贴在 Instagram

上用 Rachel 的英语标记我 我喜欢

看到人们

在不同文化中吃的这种东西 让我们

在这里一起吃早餐 大卫

谈论聚在一起 和朋友和

他的孩子 这是一个短语动词，

意思是见面共度时光 你

也可以把它用作名词

we're got a get-together at our home

this week 如果你用它，你为什么不来

与

它含义不同 get it together

意味着在混乱之后变得有条理或稳定

，例如，如果

stony 发脾气，我们可以说 get it

together stony 或者在我最近生活中的忙碌时间

我错过了一次会议，因为我完全

忘记了我 道歉并说我很

抱歉我忘记了这些天我无法将它

聚在一起好吧

这是一个暂停的好地方

聚在一起

有人在聊天中问我是否

要在一个 定期

安排 我做了我在

三天前安排了这个，

但我没有分享，所以我不知道

有些人找到了它 我不

知道他们

是怎么找到的 我没有分享它，因为我还在

只是想知道一切在技术上是如何运作

的，

想到

现场直播中有很多人，我感到害怕，所以

我最终会把它放在一起，我

会提前发布那个链接，

我什至可能会做

可能每周在同一时间按计划进行，但

我将开始在

YouTube 社区标签中分享更多内容 我会将其分享到

我的邮件列表 如果您还没有，请务必注册我的邮件列表

这是最简单的 让我

与你们取得联系的方式让我们看看这样做

只是去瑞秋的英语通讯，

在底部会弹出一些东西

，就像你想要一个为期 10 天的迷你

课程，然后你把你的电子邮件放在那里

然后 你可以在邮件列表中找到它，

但你也可以在 Instagram 上关注我，

我会 关于我

在那里的生活课程的信息，但我要在

那里整理我正在使用这个

短语

我会提前开始宣布

它，你知道我决定

我要在这里做，因为我

每天都被困在里面这

不是真的我去散步但是在

kovat 19 这个奇怪的时间我知道你知道

很多人都在家里闲逛，

我们不那么活跃了，我们

出去的次数减少了，我只是想要一种

与人更多联系

的方式，所以我计划从五月开始，然后

可能是六月，我们 我会

每周去看看

格式效果如何，看看你们喜欢

它的程度，但如果你确实喜欢它并且

你从中学到了一些东西，

那么下周请与朋友分享

，我们可以

一旦我觉得

我真的知道自己在做什么，就可以让更多的人在现场直播

有人说，最终的意思就像有

一天是的

有人说的那种事，你能

解释一下巨大这个词吗？我不确定

你的意思是发音还是意义巨大 H

辅音 u diphthong Hugh huge jake

onson，它的意思是非常非常大，好吧，

让我们回到我们的课程

回到早餐时间看看 费城早餐

桌上的胖子发生了什么事

把它

放在一起是为了从一段

混乱中恢复过来 这里闪烁的部分是托尼在

谈论一个有

闪烁灯的相机 你注意到

斯托尼还不能说那里是的 他可以

我已经和他一起工作了好

几次，他只是无法协调

将舌尖穿过牙齿

我知道这对我的非母语学生来说是一个巨大的挑战，

所以我只是想让

你知道 需要 斯托尼

说英语已经两年多了

，但他仍然没有那种声音

是

的

那里的音量太大了，因为 stony

仍然会发出随机的巨响哦，我的天哪

，这是这一阶段的事情

之一，一个一岁和一个四岁的孩子

他们说话的音量太

烦人了，就像一切都在喊

妈妈

，没有 常规声音 没有

室内声音 这就是

我们在继续保持安静时总是试图说的话

我们会说 请使用你的室内声音

室内声音 这是一个挑战

我知道这是一个阶段

几年后他 将有一个正常的

说话声音，但现在

就像一切都在喊好，所以我

只是密切关注聊天，我

看到了我看到了心我看到

了爱，非常感谢你们

在这里，所以有人说 di d 你儿子

把它捡起来了，石头最终想出

了如何做到这一点，他做到了

，可能是在他大约三岁的

时候，我认识其他

有这个年龄孩子的父母，他们

说你知道 现在他们的孩子花了

很长时间

才开始发出这种

声音 Sawyer 有这么多单词

有趣的是他只有 18 个月大 19 个月

现在他知道的单词比

同龄的普通孩子要多得多，但他仍然

不知道 没有那么多声音，所以我们

必须弄清楚他的很多

话听起来都一样，但我知道对他来说

它们都有自己的含义，如果

我查看上下文，我可以知道

他在说什么，但是 他真的在

等待更多的

声音可供他使用

元音是

他们现在开始的 开始添加一些结尾

辅音，但有趣的是

观察语言技能如何演变

他们如何构建以及那种

事情很好我会密切

关注聊天但我会继续并

开始好吧某人 说我爱你的头发

谢谢

它真的很长我会

去剪头发但是所有

剪头发的地方目前都关闭可能

在六月重新开放我不确定是否

可以继续上课

继续清理 孩子们，你

是怎么发音的，你有没有注意到

，

当一个以 T 结尾的单词

后面跟着你或你的那个 T 经常

变成 CH 时，在这个短语中听到 CH 真的很

常见 关于这样做

与否，这只是一种习惯，

许多美国人经常这样

做 在他们身上，让我

让自己变得更大好吧，我们在这里 o

所以有人问好吧

我在几年前的夏天做了一个系列

俚语的夏天，我

认为它大约有三十个不同的俚语

术语，其中很多仍在使用，

所以你可以检查一下，

但我认为这也很

重要 学习习语，你知道

如果你要来美国，你

要上大学，

你要和

一群 18 到 22 岁的孩子一起玩，他们

会用各种各样的 俚语，我

可能甚至不会总是理解

你只需要问这是什么意思

，然后当他们解释它时，如果他们

使用成语说我还是不明白，

然后一直问直到哦，

如果你也明白了 曾经看到使用的俚语

并且你不知道它的意思你可以

问那个人或者如果它 '一个视频

放在评论中，或者你可以

在我的视频中发表评论，我会尽力

为你回答有人说你能

说慢点吗我会尽力

谢谢你这是一个很好的提醒

，我很难记住 要做到这一点，我

必须承认，当我活着的时候，我在

想所有这些事情，我只是

想把它全部说

出来 字幕，

以便每个人都可以跟随，但是

当然，当我要上线时，我不能那样做

有一个

视频，

我什至不知道如何搜索它，

因为我有这么多视频，

但我不记得我到底怎么

称呼那个视频，但我真的认为

看视频会有所帮助，但如果你

没有听到 对很多人来说真正的区别实际上

要做的主要事情

是多听

练习 找到一堆敬畏

的词，如果你喜欢老板和公共汽车，找到一堆词，呃，

最小的配对

，然后

一遍又一遍地听我的学院里有很多这样的词

，你可能会或可能不会在我的

如果你肯定去参加元音

课程，你会发现所有这些，但

我有学生说我听不出

all 和 uh 或 E

和一个座位和坐下的区别，所以

我会 分配给他们一个我已经

创建的一组最小对的音频文件，

他们会听一个星期，并且

没有尝试他们听到不同之处，

他们已经充分暴露于它，

以便他们开始听到不同之处

，我 发现当我的学生以

这种方式学习时，他们事先不知道

差异，

也不知道应该是什么，

他们必须纯粹通过聆听来学习

我发现实际上很多

次 他们

从一开始就用这些

元音听起来非常好 ht 在他们听到

差异之后可能甚至比

能够听到差异

但不一定能产生

差异的学生更好，因此开始

无法听到差异的学生

进行这种激烈的听力练习

通常最终听起来非常

自然 一旦他们的

耳朵将它们分类并找出

他们听到的两种不同的声音，

我认为

当你去英语时非常重要

更少的声音和我们的很多声音

开始听起来相似 最小的双人

练习真的很重要

对不起，有人坐在这里，或者

在这两种情况下你都可以说对不起

-但我们

也在其他情况下使用抱歉 我们

不会使用抱歉，比如

当你做错事需要道歉的时候，

对不起，对不起

，你不会用的方式，对不起，所以请

原谅我打断了我，

实际上我有一个非常有趣的视频

对不起，我们使用

它的不同方式以及我们发音的方式，因为

我们在那里做了很大的减少所以

看看你是否可以在 YouTube 上

搜索 Rachel 的英语对不起，看看

它是否会弹出它可能会有人说

美国人

很容易听懂说唱之类的英语

歌曲吗？大部分情况下

是的

强项 强项 我绝对可以

看到有人说强项

忽略 th 发出 NG 和 K 声音

强项 你的强项

实际上是什么 我想

我在面试工作的视频中谈到了这一点

因为优势和劣势是

他们

在求职面试中可能会问你的两件事，你可以

去 youtube 并做 Rachel 的英语求职

面试我实际上有很多

关于该主题的视频，但我很确定

我提到过 在其中一个 好的

我们要回到课程

很多问题都来了 我

喜欢和你们聊天很有趣 任何一天

都欢迎你们在我的聊天

提要中 好吧 让我们继续前进

Sonne 你想要这些华夫饼干作为

你的零食

吗 你现在想要一个特殊

零食 我们都需要每隔一段时间吃一份好零食

这不是一顿丰盛的饭菜，

而是我们在两餐之间吃的一点食物

零食 房子 我们

在 6 点到 6 点 45 分之间起床

关于在聊天中这是一个关于共振的问题

是t 他最

重要的头发语言功能以获得

准确的美式发音这是一个

很好的问题，在你的日历标记上

让我看到 5 月 26 日 5 月 26 日是一个星期二

，我有一个视频出来，它完全是

关于位置和共鸣以及

你的声音如何在你的

如果你的目标是

听起来更美国更自然，

那么你肯定会想看

这个，因为当你解决你的

位置和你的 你的

声音在你的身体里产生共鸣然后每次你

说话时它都会受到影响所以检查一下我很

兴奋我今天刚刚完成编辑

它会

很好它会很长它就像一个

45 分钟的视频我去 通过所有

这些不同的解释方式

，然后我们看看一群学生，

他们是你们发送的一堆视频，

如果你们还记得的话，我想

那是 2019 年底的 11 月，我发布

了一个 视频要求你们

为我录制对话，然后我

打算在 YouTube 上为他们制作视频视频，

使用这些视频作为一种教学方式

，这两个视频都将

在 5 月发布，它们真的很有趣，所以是其中的一部分

那个展示位置视频

我正在浏览你们提交的视频，

模仿你的展示位置，

谈论你可以改变和

调整什么以使你的展示位置更好

实际上现在使用这个词来

提醒我几分钟前在聊天中看到

有人说调整是什么意思

调整意味着一个小的改变 一个小的

改变，有时只是一个小的调整

就可以产生很大的不同，

例如位置，因为你会看到你

如何使用你的

声音或让它产生共鸣可以产生很大的

不同 你听起来，所以这

就是词调整美妙的建议和

建议好，这是一个艰难的最小

对区别是结尾 s 与

结尾 Z 建议，拼写为

see e 有 S 声音建议，但

动词advice用字母S拼写

，是Z音 Z音很弱，

所以它实际上甚至可以听起来像

字母S，它只是它的一个非常弱的形式，

但这两个词听起来很

相似，我认为advice有点不

常见 它可能会被强调

一点，而且上下文你

总是会从上下文中知道

它是什么词，因为我们是把它用作动词

还是我们把它用作名词

advice是名词，advise是

动词okay let's 完成这个视频，

然后我会回来聊天并

回答更多问题

，然后我会关闭直播，

因为这是星期五，我们

接近 5:00，我必须去

帮忙 大卫和他现在正在

照顾他们的孩子们 好吧 让我们

继续前进 你听到你的

对他的公司来说很大 他在走路 他话

很多 他有这么多卷曲

就像大而卷曲的

卷曲 我们需要把它剪掉 但就像

我说的那样什么都没有

打开 我只是觉得

他的头上有锋利的剪刀 我只是我不是

我从来没有剪过 之前的头发，我不
