00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.600
hey guys welcome to this new video on

2
00:00:01.600 --> 00:00:04.319
lingo arena today we're gonna talk about

3
00:00:04.319 --> 00:00:06.799
learning english by watching other

4
00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:09.200
people's videos and let me show you

5
00:00:09.200 --> 00:00:11.360
something now if you think

6
00:00:11.360 --> 00:00:12.320
that

7
00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:15.759
after living for six years in the us

8
00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:17.840
i know everything in english

9
00:00:17.840 --> 00:00:20.640
oh you're wrong i have this note that is

10
00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:22.800
right now called expressions but i give

11
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:24.400
it different names every time i start a

12
00:00:24.400 --> 00:00:26.320
new note this is basically every new

13
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:28.160
phrase or word

14
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:30.560
that i've been hearing around like i

15
00:00:30.560 --> 00:00:32.719
don't write everything down when i hear

16
00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:34.079
it for the first time somebody says

17
00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:35.520
something

18
00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:37.760
it doesn't make sense to just grab your

19
00:00:37.760 --> 00:00:39.440
notes right away and write things down

20
00:00:39.440 --> 00:00:40.800
because if you're

21
00:00:40.800 --> 00:00:43.280
listening to a complicated conversation

22
00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:45.520
which includes a lot of advanced wars

23
00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:48.000
this just takes away all the interest

24
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:50.320
from watching it but for example if i'm

25
00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:52.320
watching a netflix show and i hear

26
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:55.680
something like jack of all trades and i

27
00:00:55.680 --> 00:00:58.000
know i've heard it many times i double

28
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:00.800
check it with google what it means etc

29
00:01:00.800 --> 00:01:03.920
and i try to start using it so jack of

30
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:06.479
all trades is now here for me to start

31
00:01:06.479 --> 00:01:08.240
using this phrase or

32
00:01:08.240 --> 00:01:11.360
to be predicated on it's a home run

33
00:01:11.360 --> 00:01:13.360
lovey-dovey it's something i heard

34
00:01:13.360 --> 00:01:15.438
watching the kardashians i've been sick

35
00:01:15.438 --> 00:01:17.520
for the past couple weeks and

36
00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:20.000
all i could do is watch shows and videos

37
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:22.400
so watch the kardashians by the way i'm

38
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:24.159
also writing them down because i want to

39
00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:25.920
create videos for you guys so you could

40
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:27.680
learn those phrases with me but this

41
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:29.680
video is also for you to start doing

42
00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:31.920
something that i'm doing already you can

43
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:33.600
have an exercise book which you can

44
00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:35.840
title vocabulary or you could just have

45
00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.319
a note in your phone which for me works

46
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:40.240
a lot better because i have it with me

47
00:01:40.240 --> 00:01:43.119
all the time and i learn new phrases

48
00:01:43.119 --> 00:01:45.840
every single day like someone would say

49
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:48.000
something to me i would read an email

50
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:50.240
with a new phrase or phrase that i think

51
00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:52.799
i should start using and i put it into

52
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:54.399
my note by the way if you haven't

53
00:01:54.399 --> 00:01:57.200
subscribed this channel yet please hit

54
00:01:57.200 --> 00:01:59.680
subscribe button okay

55
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:03.200
let's start talking about subtitles i'm

56
00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:05.600
being 100 honest here i didn't use

57
00:02:05.600 --> 00:02:06.799
subtitles when i was watching the

58
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:08.479
kardashians but

59
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:10.959
when i was watching the house of cards i

60
00:02:10.959 --> 00:02:12.560
used the subtitles because there was so

61
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.200
many political vocabulary there i wanted

62
00:02:15.200 --> 00:02:16.560
to make sure i understand everything

63
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:18.080
because the plot is sometimes

64
00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:20.080
complicated in addition to advanced

65
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:22.239
words proximity to power deludes some

66
00:02:22.239 --> 00:02:24.000
into believing they wield it

67
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:28.879
so i love watching movies and tv series

68
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:30.720
with subtitles

69
00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:34.000
and yes i scored 117 on toefl which

70
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.959
means i am advanced in listening doesn't

71
00:02:36.959 --> 00:02:39.200
matter like there is always some hint

72
00:02:39.200 --> 00:02:42.239
for me to peek onto and sometimes people

73
00:02:42.239 --> 00:02:44.480
have accents sometimes they pronounce

74
00:02:44.480 --> 00:02:47.519
words in a different way and i just want

75
00:02:47.519 --> 00:02:49.120
to make sure that i understand

76
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:50.879
everything but from the learning

77
00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:53.200
perspective this is actually

78
00:02:53.200 --> 00:02:55.599
not something you should do so ideally

79
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:57.360
if you want to watch the house of cards

80
00:02:57.360 --> 00:02:59.440
and you or like something political

81
00:02:59.440 --> 00:03:01.599
something that is super complicated as a

82
00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:04.000
topic then go ahead switch on the

83
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:06.480
subtitles watch with subtitles so that

84
00:03:06.480 --> 00:03:08.159
it's easier for you to watch it but if

85
00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:09.519
you're watching something like the

86
00:03:09.519 --> 00:03:11.360
kardashians if you're watching something

87
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:13.120
that's really easy to understand the

88
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.159
simpsons whatever like a cartoon please

89
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:19.200
switch them off like there is nothing

90
00:03:19.200 --> 00:03:21.120
major going on in the kardashians that

91
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:22.879
you would not be able to understand

92
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.919
without subtitles like the video speaks

93
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:28.720
for itself she's trying on a new outfit

94
00:03:28.720 --> 00:03:31.040
she's doing the balenciaga photo shoot

95
00:03:31.040 --> 00:03:33.760
whatever like you are going to be able

96
00:03:33.760 --> 00:03:35.680
to catch it from

97
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:38.159
what you see on the screen so please

98
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:41.040
switch off the subtitles language is

99
00:03:41.040 --> 00:03:44.400
this gibby gabby it's albanian but the

100
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:46.560
producers added subtitles to make it

101
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:49.120
commercial mom i don't want to read it's

102
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:51.920
the weekend the same also goes for the

103
00:03:51.920 --> 00:03:54.720
speed that you use to watch a video

104
00:03:54.720 --> 00:03:57.840
some people tell me i speak too fast but

105
00:03:57.840 --> 00:03:59.920
this actually how my brain works

106
00:03:59.920 --> 00:04:01.840
sometimes it's ahead of me so i speak

107
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:04.159
too fast i try to slow down for this

108
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.799
channel just because i understand that

109
00:04:06.799 --> 00:04:09.120
it is hard when people speak too fast

110
00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:11.599
but what you could do with this video as

111
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:12.640
well

112
00:04:12.640 --> 00:04:14.400
you could slow it down on youtube if you

113
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:15.599
look here

114
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:17.120
there would be a sign that would let you

115
00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:18.720
adjust the speed

116
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:20.079
when i

117
00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:22.880
listen to a youtuber who i understand

118
00:04:22.880 --> 00:04:25.279
for example emma chamberlain she's like

119
00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:26.240
this

120
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:29.040
i know she's just this person that

121
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:31.600
everybody loves in the us because she

122
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:33.680
started blogging when she was like

123
00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:36.720
13 14 and people grew up with her so

124
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:39.040
they love her and if you haven't watched

125
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.199
any of her vlogs try

126
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:42.720
so her

127
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:45.120
rhythm is very relaxed

128
00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:47.759
she doesn't use complicated english so i

129
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:50.320
understand everything and because again

130
00:04:50.320 --> 00:04:52.320
this is me but i love when i'm able to

131
00:04:52.320 --> 00:04:54.000
consume a lot of information in a short

132
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:55.279
period of time

133
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:58.479
i put the speed on 2x because i'm able

134
00:04:58.479 --> 00:05:00.479
to get everything that's going on with

135
00:05:00.479 --> 00:05:02.880
some youtubers who talk about

136
00:05:02.880 --> 00:05:05.120
complicated things with some youtubers

137
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:08.320
who want to indulge i know lex friedman

138
00:05:08.320 --> 00:05:10.320
is the guy who talks about science he

139
00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:12.720
does amazing interviews i watch them at

140
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:16.320
1x speed but you could also go 0.5 x

141
00:05:16.320 --> 00:05:18.639
speed which means everything is going to

142
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:21.759
be very slow do you know what's great in

143
00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:24.080
learning english while watching videos

144
00:05:24.080 --> 00:05:25.680
you're not only learning english you're

145
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:27.199

146
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:29.120

196
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:22.960
everything we're talking about

197
00:07:22.960 --> 00:07:25.360
everything has to be made for you to

198
00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:27.680
enjoy the process

199
00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:29.759
that's it and in order for you to enjoy

200
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.560
the process you need to be able to catch

201
00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:35.039
what's going on and if it requires

202
00:07:35.039 --> 00:07:38.240
subtitles then go ahead i'll forgive you

203
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:41.520
if that requires listening at 0.5 x

204
00:07:41.520 --> 00:07:44.400
speed then go ahead do it you have to

205
00:07:44.400 --> 00:07:46.400
enjoy one thing that you should never

206
00:07:46.400 --> 00:07:49.520
ever do on youtube or ever subtitles in

207
00:07:49.520 --> 00:07:51.520
your own language come on now you're

208
00:07:51.520 --> 00:07:53.039
going to be reading in your own language

209
00:07:53.039 --> 00:07:54.960
you would not even pay attention to what

210
00:07:54.960 --> 00:07:57.280
people say this is a taboo for everyone

211
00:07:57.280 --> 00:07:58.879
who's learning english

212
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:02.720
no subtitles in your own language okay

213
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:04.720
this movie is boring

214
00:08:04.720 --> 00:08:06.560
let's talk about different strategies of

215
00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:09.280
watching a video strategy number one you

216
00:08:09.280 --> 00:08:12.240
focus on the content and this happens

217
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:13.840
like every day you find something

218
00:08:13.840 --> 00:08:16.160
exciting on youtube and you're like okay

219
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.240
i'm not in the mood to write down words

220
00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:20.560
so we'll just listen to the video

221
00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:23.440
and uh the main goal for me is to get

222
00:08:23.440 --> 00:08:25.360
the idea of what's going on like i don't

223
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:27.199
know you're learning about business so

224
00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:28.960
you don't really care about the new

225
00:08:28.960 --> 00:08:32.719
vocabulary right now you care more about

226
00:08:32.719 --> 00:08:34.479
things and basics on how to start a

227
00:08:34.479 --> 00:08:36.719
company so here you would switch on

228
00:08:36.719 --> 00:08:38.559
subtitles if you don't understand you

229
00:08:38.559 --> 00:08:40.880
would slow the video down but you will

230
00:08:40.880 --> 00:08:43.519
only focus on his content the second

231
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:45.679
strategy let's say you're in the mood

232
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.080
and again because you want everything to

233
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:50.640
be enjoyable you really ask yourself how

234
00:08:50.640 --> 00:08:52.640
you're feeling today so if you're in the

235
00:08:52.640 --> 00:08:54.480
mood to learn new words then it's a

236
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:56.399
completely different strategy this is

237
00:08:56.399 --> 00:08:58.080
when you focus on the new words this is

238
00:08:58.080 --> 00:08:59.920
when you pause the video and write

239
00:08:59.920 --> 00:09:02.559
things down again the second strategy is

240
00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:04.640
less enjoyable so i wouldn't really

241
00:09:04.640 --> 00:09:06.720
expect you to watch two or three videos

242
00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:09.279
a day like that for me an ideal pace is

243
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:11.760
like 15 minutes of watching a video to

244
00:09:11.760 --> 00:09:14.080
learn new vocabulary depending on the

245
00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:16.080
type of creator or type of content that

246
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.320
you're consuming you might be writing

247
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:21.040
down one or two words per minute and

248
00:09:21.040 --> 00:09:22.399
again it depends on your english

249
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:24.399
language level but if i watch someone

250
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:26.240
like bram stefan who talks about

251
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:28.559
personal finance i would say i would

252
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:30.559
find at least three words in the whole

253
00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:32.640
video to write down and to start

254
00:09:32.640 --> 00:09:35.200
actively using in my speech or for

255
00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:36.880
example you're watching my silicon

256
00:09:36.880 --> 00:09:38.640
valley girl channel and i have a video

257
00:09:38.640 --> 00:09:40.480
about tesla and there on the first

258
00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:42.800
minute i say a phrase out of the blue

259
00:09:42.800 --> 00:09:45.120
which means unexpectedly what you would

260
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:47.279
do is write this phrase out of the blue

261
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:50.000
and ideally you would also write down a

262
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:51.839
sentence where this phrase was used

263
00:09:51.839 --> 00:09:53.519
because it's really important to know

264
00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:55.360
how to use something that you've just

265
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:57.679
learned by the way look at the word

266
00:09:57.679 --> 00:09:59.440
break here do you think it's spelled

267
00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:01.679
correctly should it be break

268
00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:03.920
or break break a break now again you

269
00:10:03.920 --> 00:10:06.080
need the context to know what's going on

270
00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:08.958
to break in this case means to slow down

271
00:10:08.958 --> 00:10:11.640
stop a vehicle and the spelling is

272
00:10:11.640 --> 00:10:14.399
b-r-a-k-e remember to break before this

273
00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:16.160
time the next word you might find

274
00:10:16.160 --> 00:10:18.559
interesting in this video to collide

275
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:20.640
what does it mean

276
00:10:20.640 --> 00:10:22.958
quick exercise comment down below with

277
00:10:22.958 --> 00:10:24.800
the meaning of the word collide i give

278
00:10:24.800 --> 00:10:26.520
you 10 seconds

279
00:10:26.520 --> 00:10:34.970
[Music]

280
00:10:36.160 --> 00:10:38.720
collide means to hit with force when

281
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:41.200
moving an example would be two cars

282
00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:43.360
collided at the intersection and then

283
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:45.440
the last stage would be for you to learn

284
00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:46.958
those words and there are several

285
00:10:46.958 --> 00:10:48.720
strategies to do that i have the whole

286
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:50.640
video on how to learn new words but it

287
00:10:50.640 --> 00:10:52.480
could be a sticky note somewhere in your

288
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:54.800
house it could be a note on your phone

289
00:10:54.800 --> 00:10:56.720
it could be another thing you could be

290
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:58.800
creating content in english and using

291
00:10:58.800 --> 00:11:00.559
those words and it could be a diary it

292
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:01.519
could be

293
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:04.480
an instagram blog it could be tick tocks

294
00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:06.480
it could be anything in this world but

295
00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:09.360
try to use all the new words you learned

296
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.120
that was it for me for today guys thank
