a song words connect sounds change and sometimes letters just disappear that is true and that is why it is so important to focus not just on single words but on how they sound together in a sentence let us talk about pronunciation first a lot of Learners worry about having an accent or pronouncing every sound perfectly look for but honestly native speakers all have different accents too that is right for example people from the north of England sound very different from people in the south Americans sound different from Australian s and so on exactly so the goal is not to sound exactly like someone from London or New York the goal is to be clear and natural and not to be a fraid of your own accent that is a really good point Alex I think a lot of people feel nervous about their accent but sometimes your accent is part of your personality and it is completely okay definitely what matters more is your Rhythm and intonation that is what makes your English sound more natural rhy thm in English is about which words are stressed and which ones are not some words are strong and others are very fast and weak let us try an example say this sentence with me I want to go to the store when I say it I stress I go and store the words to and the are much softer almost like background music right so it sounds like I want to go to the store and that is what makes English sound a bit like music there is a beat and the small words move quickly now let us talk about connected speech this is when words join together and the sounds change yes for example if you say I am going to eat you do not say I am going to eat each word is not separate in real life it sounds more like I am going to eat that is right Ghana is a very common way to connect going to and it is totally natural another example is want to which often be comes wanna I want to go home exactly and did you notice that the T sound almost disappear s sometimes for example in the phrase best of all it can sound like Bears of all it is not just the T somet imes H can disappear too like in the sentence tell him I will call him later it can sound like tell him I will call him later n ative speakers do this all the time without thinking it is just how English flows another interesting thing is linking the end of 1 Word with the start of the next like in the phrase turn off it sounds like turn off or when a word ends in a consonant and the next word starts with a vowel for example pick it up becomes pick it up that is a good 1 and sometimes words get even shorter for example give me becomes give me let us try a quick practice Charlotte repeat after me I am going to call her I am going to call her now faster I'm going to call her I'm going to call her perfect did you notice how call her almost be comes collar yes and that is why sometimes student s think native speakers are talking too fast but actually they are just connecting words exactly and you do not need to use all these shortcuts all the time but listening for them will help you understand native speakers much better and when you feel confident you can try using some in your own speech it will make you sound more relaxed and natural let us talk a bit about intonation too in tonation is how your voice Rises and Falls when you speak in English when you ask a yes or no question your voice usually goes up at the end like are you coming but with information questions starting with what where when who why or how your voice often goes down at the end like where are you going yes and if you are just making a state ment your voice usually Falls a little at the end I am going to the store practic ing intonation can help you sound more confident and clear also listen for how people Express emotion for example if you are excited your voice might rise if you are disappoint ed your voice might fall and sound lower so let us practice a little conversation using these connected spee ch patterns and intonation sounds good hey Charlotte what you doing this weekend not much just going to relax at home how about you I am thinking of checking out that new Cafe you want to join sure sounds fun let me know what time we'll do I will text you later thanks that is exactly how friends talk in real life did you notice the phrases like Witcher which is what are you Gunner which is going to and will do instead of I will do it and sounds fun is a quick way to say that sounds like fun let us practice another 1 how about the phrase did you eat yet most native speakers say something like G yet it is so fast the words almost disappear yes G yet mean s uh did you eat yet it is funny but very common so when you listen to movies or podcasts pay attention to the se little changes it will help you understand more another good way to practice is to repeat after native speakers pause the video say the sentence out loud and try to match the Rhythm and sound this technique is called shadowing and it is 1 of the best ways to improve your pronunciation and connected speech let us try a mini shadow ing practice I will say a sentence and you repeat after me okay ready here we go give me a second give me a second did you get my message what you want to do tonight what you want to do tonight see it gets easier the more you practice yes and you can even record yourself and listen back to see how you sound do not worry about being perfect focus on being clear and natural 1 more thing remember that every accent is unique even native speakers do not sound the same exact ly so celebr ate your accent and focus on the music of English before we finish let us review some of the vocab ulary and phrases we use today and talk about the way they are pronounced in real life we talked about Ghana which comes from going to which is 1 got which is got to give me which is give me and Diga which is did you also words like what which comes from what are you and phrases like G yet which means did you eat yet do not forget about linking words like pick it up pick it up and turn off turn off for intonation we practiced raising your voice for yes or no questions and lowering it for statements and for rhythm we stress the important words in a sentence and let the small words move quickly if you want to sound more like a native listen carefully to how people talk and practice these pattern s every day it will feel strange at first but soon it will be natural that is all for today in the next chapter we will talk about using fillers slang and real life phrases to make your English sound even more authentic see you then and keep practicing Charlotte do you remember the first time you tried to follow a group of Native English speakers chatting among themselves I remember just sitting there and thinking wait what language is this they are using so many words and sounds that I have never seen in any textbook oh yes I know that feeling it can be really confusing at first because there are all these little words and phrases that do not mean much by themselves but they help keep the conversation moving n ative speakers use a lot of fillers and slang and sometimes it feels like a secret code that is true and honestly fillers are not only okay they are a very important part of sounding natural in English when you listen to real convers ations you will hear words like um well like you know actually literally basically and even just sounds like hm or a exactly and fillers help you sound more relaxed and natural they give you a moment to think about what you want to say next and they make the conversation flow let's try a quick exper iment Charlotte I will tell a short story first without any fillers and then with fillers check which 1 sounds more natural oh okay I am ready here 's the first version yesterday I went to the store I bought some I have a friend then I went home that is very simple and clear but it sounds kind of robot ic so they are checking songs I period hey download I prefer check ing songs right now here's um I went to the store and I like bought some fruit and then oh I saw my friend you know and we talked for a bit then I went home that sounds much more like real conversation there are pauses it feels softer and more friendly exactly you do not want to use too many fillers but add ing up from time to time that's completely normal I agree and sometimes you need a little time to think if you're nervous so it's like well or actually are very help ful let us try practicing a mini conversation with fillers sure Alex you start setting up I was thinking we could maybe go to the park later if you want yeah actually that sounds nice I mean the weather is pretty good today do you want to invite some other friends or just us hm m I am not sure maybe just us this time cool let me know what time work s for you okay I will text you later see how natural that feels it is just like 2 Friends making plans and it is totally okay to use small words and sounds and do not forget about phrases like kind of sort of or I guess for that is very natural yes and it is a good way to show your thinking or not sure now let us talk about slang slang is 1 of those things that can make English fun but also a little bit difficult every city has its own slang but there are some phrases and words that are very popular everywhere for example Jude no way chill hang out and some expressions like I am broke mean s I do not have any money or that is sick meaning that is interesting that is lit meaning it is really good or fun check check right if you are going to bed you can say check 2 1 you can say I got a bounce set this weekend what do you want to do I heard there is a cool concert down there really sounds sick a band called the Rockets they are pretty chill right now no worries I can get the tickets this time thanks no problem that is what friends are for phrases we used and it still sounds ah a a a really fast so do not worry if you do not understand everything at first first just focus on the phrases that you hear most often are not sure what means just ask people usually like to explore their people usually like to explore another thing is real life you will not find in most textbooks but they are everywhere in conversation you know what I mean or uh by the way for uh long story short or if you want to sound Supernatural you can use phrases like to be honest honestly or actually to begin your sentences let us practice some of those Alex do you think learning slang is really important to be honest I think it is useful but you do not need to learn everything at once yeah I agree actually I learned new slang all the time same here and by the way if you ever hear something and you are not sure what it means just asked me thanks I will that is really helpful another phrase I hear a lot is I am not sure but I think or I could be wrong but yes those help you sound Less Direct and more polite it is good to use them if you are giving your opinion Charlotte what do you think is the best way to learn real life English honestly I think you just have to spend time listening and practicing it is not about memorizing a long list of words but about hearing them in context I agree watch ing TV shows and listening to podcasts helps a lot and speaking with friends even just talking to yourself in English can help you practice using fillers and phrases 1 thing that helped me was repeating after native speakers when watching a show yes that is called shadowing and it is a great way to learn how real conversations sound before we finish this chapter let us review some of the useful vocabulary and phrases from today and show how they fit into real life first we talked about fillers words like well like you know actually I mean sort of kind of I guess then we had slang words cool awesome d ude no way chill hang out the sick lit I am beat I am broke I am hitting the sack I gotta bounce also we used real life phrases like you know what I mean at the end of the day by the way long story short to be honest honestly actually I could be wrong but these are all things you can use in your convers ations with friends or when chatting online do not worry about using them perfectly the more you listen and practice the easier it gets try adding a few of these words and phrases next time you speak English and see how people react most people will notice you sound much more relaxed and natural in the next chapter we are going to talk about think ing in English and how to respond instantly so you can keep a conversation going without having to translate in your head thanks for joining us keep listen ing and keep practicing do you remember a time when you wanted to say something in English but your mind went completely blank maybe you had the idea in your native language but you just could not find the English words fast enough oh absolutely Alex that happened to me so many times when I started learning English I would listen to a question and in my head I would quickly translate everything to my language and then back to English it took so much time me too and honestly this is something a lot of English Learners struggle with it is totally normal at first but if you want to sound more like a native you have to train your brain to think in English that is true I think thinking in English is a skill and you can practice it like any other skill it takes time and patience but it is possible and it makes a huge difference so let us talk about how you can start thinking in English for English
