Waching daily Jul 3 2018

Good morning Amigos Ingleses, Isabel speaking how can I help?

ah well Phillip has the day off and to be honest, I don't want to disturb him

unless it's something very urgent.

Excuse me?

You've got an exam tomorrow?

Ok, give me a moment, I'm going to try.

What do you want?

I'm really sorry to call you but we have a student...

he's got an exam tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m. and ...

¿Cuál era la palabra?

'Cómodo', he wants to know how to pronounce 'cómodo' in English.

Comfortable. Is that correct?

Comfortable, it's comfortable

Ok, is that it?

Verdura?

Ok, verdura.

Vegetable

Okay?

Thank you so much, again

sorry to bother you and enjoy the rest of the day, okay?

I'll see you tomorrow at the office

It's been a pleasure to help you and best of luck with your exam tomorrow.

Excuse me?

But, no sorry, I really can't call him again

It's the final exam of your degree

Wait a moment please.

I've just lost two biscuits in my tea, because of you!!!

Connecting with a native speaker doesn't need to be so complicated nowadays, because we have apps like Cambly

you already know that Cambly is our favourite app to practise your speaking with natives from all around the world instantly.

and today we're actually going to call some of these teachers

and correct the pronunciation of some words that can be complicated

for Spanish speakers.

Let's see if they can understand us and if they can help us with the correct pronunciation.

Cambly has given us a free class for you.

so at the end of the video we'll let you know how to get it, okay?

And now, let's begin!

How's it going?

Pretty good, how are you?

All good, great. thank you.

I'd like you to think how you would pronounce his name.

Ok, so, what's your name sorry?

Liam, my name's Liam. Not Laiam?

no, no, Liam.

Okay, where are you from?

I'm from Connecticut, it's New York City

it's just north of New York City.

I have a strong accent because I'm from

near to Manchester.

Ah okay. Yeah, we saw your were from the UK.

yeah. Next to Manchester? What's the name of the place where you live?

It's Stoke-on-Trent.

Ah yeah, it sounds familiar. It rings a bell. Stoke-on- Trent.

Are you ready for my words?

Hmm, I'll do my best.

Health?

heard ... no?

It's something that you find in your body. Heart! In your chest.

You got it!

You heart pumps the blood around your body.

The heart as in: the heart is in your chest.

Minute

Mmm that's an interesting way to say it

Minute, it exists yeah.

It's two different words with the same spelling yeah so minute

what does it mean?

Very small, tiny, tiny, minute

Ah, minute!

As in: the dinner will be ready in a minute.

Biscuit!

I love to eat biscuits.

Biscuit!

People in England love biscuits.

True, and crumpets

especially with tea.

Tool?

Tool or tour?

Ok, so tour, the correct pronunciation is tour.

So I would like to take a tour of the city.

Iceland? Like the country?

Well, actually Iceland is an Island, so ...

Oh! Island

You got it!

Island, the correct pronunciation is island.

So Hawaii is an island.

Tricky one!

I'm from the UK and I live on a island.

That's a good one. We get very confused with prepositions so many people say

I live in an 'Iceland'.

So I live on an island.

You can do this one, go for it!

Usually my students say 'iron'

Iron?

iron? Is it iron? Okay

So the correct pronunciation is iron.

The building's foundation is made of iron.

All my students say parents and then I correct them and then they keep saying

parents parents parents

I say no it's parents. Parents, ok?

So an example would be my parents retired in Florida.

In the UK we retire to Spain

Oh actually yeah I went to Spain

and there were so many British people.

I hope they were behaving.

They were, they were nice, they were just playing golf

Law

I'm studying law at University.

Law, the pronunciation is law.

So, robbing from a bank is against the law.

Perfect!

Have you ever broken the law?

Not on purpose,

maybe I've done something and I didn't know

actually when I was three I stole candy I don't remember but my mom says I

I stole candy. I wanted candy and she wouldn't buy it so I came out with a

fistful of lollipops

Wow, oh dear...

Have you ever broken the law Liam?

Be honest be honest

I yes I've broken the law probably a few times

yeah okay maybe yeah

a few times?

maybe speeding or something like this. Going over the speed limit or...

On purpose?

Probably not on purpose but without realising. I see ...

Food

Flute

Flood!

Ah there you go!

Third time lucky.

Flood

That's it

flood

so when there's non-stop rain it becomes a flood.

So, for example, when you're a vegetarian you don't eat 'sticks'

Steak steak!

Steak.

So, I would like my steak to be rare.

So, who's the author of this book?

Author!

So the correct pronunciation is author.

George Orwell is my favourite author.

J K Rowling is my favourite author.

You're a Harry Potter fan!

Oh I love Harry Potter yes.

but I think you pronounce this word a little bit different

in Britain we don't pronounce the R so it's just author author

but you guys in the States I think you pronounce the R at the end right?

mostly except in Boston.

They drop the R's in Boston a lot

so the Boston pronunciation is more similar to the British one

yeah exactly

and how would you pronounce it again

let's hear your pronunciation

author

I'm gonna move to America you know what

might be easier.

I'm tired of the British pronunciation, it's too hard for us.

Give me that!

Sorry.

Can I ask you... What should you do if you are in Connecticut and you encounter a bear?

What is the best thing to do in that situation?

Depends on the bear

I can't remember specifically which species you're supposed to attack

and which species you run away or stand still

but some of them, you have to be as big as you can be, you spread yourself out and make noise.

to try and scare them?

Yeah

If they think they can eat you, they'll eat you but if you are like ... make yourself as big as possible

But what if the bear is running towards you? What should you do?

Run. Well actually it would outrun you. It depends what you're close to

I wouldn't run though for most bears.

I've heard some people say, the best thing to do is to play dead.

Yes, that's another good strategy, is just stop moving.

Do you think that'd work though?

Depends on the bear

sometimes

Depends on how hungry the bear is.

I would just run as fast as I could.

I'd probably clim a tree, I think.

Oh climbing, going to high places, that could help you.

I ironed this before I came online yes.

And your trousers, have you ironed your trousers?

Actually, these are jeans, so I don't iron these.

Ah ok.

These are not ironed.

You're wearing trousers though, right?

I am wearing trousers, yes. Luckily for you.

I've got a few more...

100 more

no I'm just kidding. We've got... how many? Four?

four left.

I've got a few more. One hundred more.

No, I'm just kidding, we've got, how many? Four left.

RUSOS REACCIONAN AL HIMNO NACIONAL MEXICANO | REACCIÓN + Hablando de Aficionados Mexicanos en Rusia - Duration: 10:16.

You have been asking us to react to the Mexican National Anthem

We found a video with English subtitles

Mom doesn't know English but I will be translating for her

So we're gonna listen to it now -Yes

Their country is called "United States of Mexico"

But everyone just says Mexico

The same as America

I read yesterday that they have 31 states

Mexicanos, al grito de guerra

Y retiemble en sus centros la tierra

Y retiemble en sus centros la tierra

I don't understand this translation

Fatherland!

Our fatherland

The translator used some fancy words that I can't understand

Mas si osare un extrano enemigo...

We will fight for our soil

Oh Patria Querida!

Que el cielo, un soldado en cada hijo te dio

They all will protect their fatherland

Mexicanos, al grito de guerra

I think this is the chorus

Y retiemble en sus centros la tierra

Al sonoro rugir del canon

Guerra, guerra!

Sin tregua al que intente, de la patria manchar los blasones

Los patrios pendones, en las olas de sangre empapad

En el monte, en el valle, los cannones harrisonos truenen

Y los ecos sonoros resuenen, con las voces de "Union! Libertad!"

Their anthem is about freedom and fighting for the fatherland

Very patriotic anthem

Russian anthem is slower

And Mexican anthem is very rhythmic

Roar of the cannon

Antes, partia que inermes tus hijos, bajo el yugo su cuello dobleguen

Tus campinas con sangre se rieguen

Sobre sangre se estampe su pie

Y tus templos, palacios y torres, se derrumben con horrido estruendo

Y sus ruinas existan, deciendo

De mil heroes la patria aqui fue

It's hard to translate while reading

Especially when you've never heard those words before

Well, they talk about protecting their fatherland

They have thousands of warriors

They will protect their country and fatherland

Fatherland, fatherland

Tus hijos te juran, exhalar en tus aras su aliento

Something about "accent"

Basically, when it is needed, they all will come together

To fight for their fatherland

Un laurel para ti de victoria! Un sepulcro para ellos de honor!

Mexicanos... al grito de guerra

Prepare your weapons and swards

Do they really have this in their anthem?

Sounds horrifying

Well, maybe it's a warning, so that nobody dares to attack them

Is it the end? -Yes

Very good anthem. Very patriotic and rhythmic

They won't let anyone attack their fatherland

Very powerful anthem

No enemy can step a foot on their soil

Very powerful anthem

Very warlike anthem -Yes

It's also a little horrifying

Well, that's what a great anthem should sound like

They will come together to protect their country

And yet they are the friendliest people

They're not evil at all

And they are not hostile

Mexican football fans are the friendliest

Yes yes yes, everyone in Russia says that Mexican fans are the friendliest

I really liked the 11 Mexican friends. Everyone likes them

They were supporting his friend

The cardboard friend

Yes, they call him "cardboard Javier"

His wife didn't let him go to Russia

And his friends supported him

Wait, so they went to some matches without him

And only after that he came to Russia

He was staying in Mexico? -Yes

But he already booked his tickets for the matches

And his wife still didn't let him go?

I don't know about that but all his friends went to Russia but he couldn't

And then his friends created accounts on social media for him

And were posting photos of that friend

And they would carry their cardboard friend everywhere

And they were begging his wife to let him go, and she let him go

Maybe in Mexico people told her: "What the hell are you doing?"

"Maybe it was your husband's life's dream?"

He wanted to come to Russia

For FIFA 2018 -Yes

Many football fans that came to Russia, say that:

After FIFA want to come to our country again

And travel around Russia

Because western media speaks very bad about Russia

They say that in the Russian streets there are bears and people always drink vodka

That's all lies

Well, they came to Russia and realized it's all bullshit

Yes, it's all bullshit

We love and respect everyone, come to our country

Don't believe the western and european propaganda

They always lie. Especially Americans and Europeans

But we have love for all Latin American countries

Mexicans, Argentinians and others

When a Latin American country plays football, we support them

That's all we wanted to say

Amazing, patriotic anthem

We liked it

Forum de Paris sur la Paix : rendez-vous le 11 novembre 2018 | Emmanuel Macron - Duration: 3:22.

The 1918 Armistice put an end to the First World War,

with one desire: never again.

As Europe was coming out of four years of horrific conflict which had killed millions of people,

it had a desire to put an end to these conflicts.

But in the years that followed, democracy lost ground, doubted itself,

and both nationalism and totalitarianism seized their chance.

And the Second World War was just around the corner.

This risk haunts us.

The risk of division, nationalism, inward-looking attitudes,

the great fears which can cause democracy to doubt itself, the lack of international cooperation,

this is what our world might currently be going through.

On 11 November 2018

we will celebrate the centenary of the 1918 Armistice.

In Paris, we are inviting the Heads of States who participated in the first world war and many other Heads of State

will also be present, not just to commemorate

the centenary of the armistice of the first global conflict

but to try together to keep the promise that we made 100 years ago: never again.

We have therefore decided to organize

our Peace Forum on this occasion.

This forum will be held in Paris

on 11, 12, 13 November 2018

and will bring together Heads of State and Government, leaders of international organizations,

NGO leaders, intellectuals, stakeholders,

all those who want to think, take action, drive modern multilateralism,

build peace, because it is in danger.

The Paris Peace Forum has one goal: think together, propose concrete initiatives,

reinvent multilateralism and all modern forms of cooperation

to ensure peace gains ground every day.

Because peace is currently losing ground every day.

I therefore invite you to come and win this positive fight together

to put forward your much-needed projects.

Concrete projects, whether you are Heads of State and Government,

heads of NGOs, company CEOs, citizens, intellectuals,

put forward your concrete projects for the Paris Forum.

Whether you are from North, Central or South America.

Whether you are from Africa, the Levant, Asia, the Pacific, any continent,

we need your initiatives and your projects to make this forum a success,

to enable the forum to think and take action for today and tomorrow.

I am counting on you and look forward to seeing you on 11 November in Paris

for our peace forum.
