  • Hey, you want to speak English like a native English speaker, right?

  • You want to sound natural.

  • You really want to speak English fluently.

  • Well, in order to do that, you must use the words and expressions

  • that we actually use in real life.

  • And that's exactly what I created this series for.

  • Real life English.

  • Now I'm going to teach you words and expressions that we really use.

  • Are you ready?

  • Well, then I'm teacher Tiffani let's jump right in.

  • So we're going to look at our first situation, a group of young

  • ladies, and we're going to see how I, as a native English speaker,

  • what describe this situation?

  • Now, looking at this situation.

  • I first see these two young ladies in front and I would say, wow, dependable.

  • Now I want you to watch me really quickly after me dependable.

  • Excellent.

  • One more time.

  • Dependable.

  • Good job.

  • Now again, when I see these two young women, I think of dependable, but what

  • does the word dependable actually mean?

  • So dependable means trustworthy, reliable, and capable of

  • being trusted or depended on.

  • So when I look at those two young women, I see one is leaning on the other, I think.

  • She really trusts her.

  • She really can rely on her.

  • And maybe in your life, there is someone that you truly rely on someone

  • that's always there for you, or you, you can say my friend, my mother,

  • my father, my sister, my brother.

  • Wow.

  • They're really dependable.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right now let's look at an example sentence right here.

  • Repeat after me, her boss said that she was a very dependent.

  • Assistant your turn.

  • Excellent.

  • Now we're seeing in this sentence, how to use dependable to describe someone.

  • Now I do want to remind you really quickly that this word can be used all the time.

  • Not just in a business environment, you can also use it when speaking to

  • your friends and in other environments.

  • So one more time after me dependent.

  • Excellent.

  • All right, now let's go to our next word.

  • Looking at this picture.

  • I would next notice this young lady right here.

  • Beautiful smile.

  • And I would say exuberant exuberant.

  • Now after me, this one's a little tricky after me exuberant.

  • Good.

  • Last time after that.

  • Exuberant.

  • Good job.

  • Now, what does the word exuberant mean?

  • This is a word again, that popped in my head.

  • When I first saw the situation.

  • Exuberant means joyously, unrestrained and enthusiastic many

  • people tell me a lot, teacher.

  • Tiffani you're so enthusiastic.

  • Well, now you can say teacher, you are such an exuberant individual

  • who makes sense right now, think about someone around you, someone

  • who is enthusiastic, always full of joy, someone that makes you.

  • That person is an exuberant individual.

  • Now let me show you an example.

  • Sentence, how to actually use this word in real life.

  • Here we go.

  • After me.

  • He has such an exuberant personality.

  • Good job.

  • You can use it like this and exuberant personality.

  • Now keep paying attention because we do have a quiz coming up soon.

  • All right.

  • So again, we learned the first one, dependable, the second one,

  • exuberant looking at this picture.

  • Now, then my eyes naturally would go to the top, the top left and I

  • see this young lady and she looked.

  • Reserved one more time after me reserved.

  • Maybe you're thinking, wow, teacher, what does that word mean?

  • Why did that word pop up in your head teacher?

  • Tiffani?

  • Well, after one more time, re Zurvita.

  • Excellent.

  • Very good.

  • Now again, if you need practice and help with your pronunciation, you can always

  • download my app English with Tiffani.

  • The link is right in the description.

  • There's a pronunciation course and a conversation course within the app.

  • So you can download it and get help with your pronunciation right now.

  • But again, this word reserved is very important.

  • Reserved means.

  • Restrained in words and actions.

  • Now I am not a reserved person.

  • I'm very outgoing.

  • I like talking to people, but a reserved person kind of holds back a little bit.

  • They don't talk as much to other people.

  • They just kind of are a little quieter around bigger groups of people.

  • Just like in the picture, you can tell that the woman seems a little.

  • Shy a little bit reserved.

  • Maybe someone, you know, is reserved.

  • One of my closest friends, she is very reserved.

  • When we get in big groups, she kind of gets quiet and just

  • kind of sits in the background.

  • She is reserved.

  • So how would you use this in a sentence?

  • Here we go.

  • You can use it like this.

  • And repeat after me, my friend is more reserved than I.

  • But she loves being around people makes sense.

  • All right.

  • Repeat after me again, my friend is more reserved than I am, but

  • she loves being around people.

  • Your turn.

  • Good job.

  • Excellent job.

  • All right, so now you understand what the word reserved means.

  • Now I do want to give you this tip really quickly.

  • This word can be used for people.

  • And for animals, maybe you have a pet, maybe you have a dog or a

  • cat and your dog or cat loves you.

  • But when other people come around, the dog kind of goes in the background, very shy.

  • Doesn't like talking to other people.

  • Doesn't like playing with other people.

  • You can say.

  • My dog is a little bit reserved.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right.

  • Okay, good.

  • So now we have three words.

  • We had dependable exuberant and reserved.

  • Now, when I go back and look at this image, the next thing I notice are these

  • other, these other two women right here.

  • I noticed these women and I say, you know, Ride or die ride or die.

  • Why would you say that teacher?

  • Don't you worry?

  • I'm going to explain now this is actually a slang term.

  • So after me ride or die, good job now, ride or die.

  • This actually is something that you should know.

  • It means.

  • To be extreme, uh, extremely loyal.

  • So it refers to extreme loyalty to someone or something.

  • When you are willing to do anything for someone you love or someone you really

  • appreciate in your life, you can say.

  • That's my ride or die.

  • You see how I kind of changed even the way I said it it's slang, right?

  • So we say my ride or die.

  • This person is so loyal to me.

  • They'll do anything for me.

  • We say ride or die in English.

  • Now let me show you an example sentence that will help you

  • use this word in real life.

  • Here we go.

  • My best friend will always be my ride or die.

  • Good job.

  • Now, maybe you have the same thing.

  • You have a best friend that really is your ride or die.

  • My best friend is my ride or die.

  • Make sense?

  • All right, good job.

  • Now, when I go back and I look at the image, I see something else.

  • I go back and I look at these ladies and I noticed within the first two ladies, the

  • other lady on the right, something about her expression, she looks self assured.

  • Again, after me self assured.

  • Good.

  • Last time after me self assured.

  • Great job.

  • Now self assured.

  • This is when someone is super confident.

  • So this is an expression.

  • This combination of two words, it means confident in one's

  • own abilities or character.

  • And when I looked at that picture and I saw that woman, she just.

  • Confident.

  • She looked like she could conquer the world.

  • So the first thing that popped in my head literally was self assured.

  • So again, now, you know the word or the expression you can use in this situation,

  • but let's check an example sentence.

  • Here we go.

  • After me, the new employees could tell that their boss was a very

  • self assured and confident leader.

  • Good job.

  • Excellent.

  • Self-assured extremely confident.

  • So again, you can use this self-assured in place of confident

  • if you'd like make sense right now.

  • Remember I told you that a quiz is coming, but I want to give you this quick tip.

  • This can be used.

  • Self-assured can be used to combat.

  • Or insult someone.

  • So you must be careful how you use use it.

  • Okay.

  • You can say you're too.

  • Self-assured.

  • That's kind of an insult, but if you say I love my boss she's so

  • self-assured, that's a compliment.

  • So it all depends on the way that you actually say it makes sense.

  • All right.

  • So again, great.

  • You've learned dependable exuberant reserved or die, and self-assured

  • so now, you know what time it is?

  • It's time.

  • For your English quiz.

  • Now I want to know if you are ready for this quiz.

  • I want to see how much you remember from our lesson.

  • So let's start off with question number one.

  • Here's the question I want you to fill in the blank with the word

  • or expression we learned today.

  • Now, remember you only have right here.

  • Five seconds.

  • All right.

  • Here's the second.

  • The interview revealed that he was a very blank and mature young man.

  • You have five seconds ready.

  • And now I want you to remember you only have five seconds.

  • So here we go.

  • Ready?

  • Go

  • time.

  • All right.

  • Now what is the answer?

  • The answer is.

  • Self assured I think you got it right.

  • Good.

  • Good.

  • All right.

  • So now let's go to the next question.

  • Let's go to the next question and see if you can get the answer

  • right for question number two.

  • All right.

  • Question number two.

  • Since her mom was always there for her, the woman said she was her.

  • What's the answer?

  • Here's the title.

  • time.

  • What's the answer.

  • Come on.

  • I know.

  • You know it exactly.

  • She was her ride or die.

  • Excellent.

  • Very good job.

  • Very good job.

  • All right, now let's go to question number three.

  • Here we go.

  • The question is, and let's reset.

  • The timer is my friend is quiet and here's the timer.

  • Quiet and.

  • time.

  • All right.

  • The answer to the question is what my friend is quiet and reserved.

  • Very good.

  • I think you got it.

  • Excellent.

  • Excellent.

  • Now let's move on to question number four.

  • You're doing a great job.

  • Here we go.

  • Question number four.

  • His passion revealed that he was a very.

  • Dancer, this one's a little harder.

  • He was a very dancer.

  • Five seconds.

  • Here we go.

  • Oh, we went a little faster.

  • I'll give you two more seconds time.

  • All right.

  • What's the answer.

  • Come on.

  • You know it exuberant.

  • Excellent.

  • And exuberant dancer.

  • Very good.

  • Very good.

  • All right.

  • Last quiz question.

  • Here's the last quiz question now?

  • Here's the quiz.

  • I need someone.

  • There's the sentence.

  • I need someone blank to take care of the children while I'm at work.

  • I need someone blank to take care of the children while I'm at work.

  • Time.

  • What's the answer.

  • Come on.

  • I know you got it.

  • Exactly.

  • I need someone dependable, someone I can rely on to take care of

  • the children while I'm at work.

  • Excellent job.

  • Very, very good.

  • So again, you learn the words and you got the quiz questions.

  • Now I do want to quickly give you some patterns to use.

  • For example, dependable, you can use this pattern to make your own sentence.

  • The pattern is the name.

  • Is the most dependable person I know, because, and then you give the reason, so

  • let me show you what that would look like.

  • Again, you can use this pattern.

  • If you want to see this written down, just go to the website, speak

  • English with Tiffani.com and you'll see this post for this YouTube video.

  • And you can copy down the notes.

  • Here's what this would look like using the.

  • Mark.

  • The name is the most dependable person I know because he is

  • always there when I meet him.

  • Okay.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right.

  • Use the pattern to actually make the sentence.

  • All right, let's keep going.

  • Here we go.

  • Next one is exuberant exuberant.

  • Now with exuberant.

  • Here's the sentence pattern.

  • The exuberance.

  • Person and then a description of the person and then an action

  • connected to their exuberance.

  • Now I'm going to show you how to do this.

  • All right.

  • It's the.

  • But here's an example, the exuberant woman, that's the

  • person with the long hair.

  • That's a description and what's the action enjoys making other people laugh.

  • So using the pattern, you're able to make a sentence properly

  • in English and use the word.

  • All right.

  • What about reserved?

  • We learned reserved here's the pattern person.

  • Was very reserved.

  • So person didn't and then the action connected to being reserved.

  • So what does this look like?

  • Here's the examples and using this pattern, her brother was very reserved.

  • So he person didn't speak to anyone at the event.

  • So we're using the pattern and making a sentence for the word reserved.

  • All right.

  • Now what about ride or die?

  • You know, I liked that one talking about someone who's always be there for you.

  • Here's the pattern person has been my ride or die since, and then the time period.

  • So what about my best friend?

  • Let me show you how I would use this pattern.

  • She has been my ride or die since we were in the fourth grade.

  • And that's true.

  • Actually, she's been my ride or die since we were in the fourth grade person.

  • She, her name is . And then time period, since we were in the fourth grade.

  • Now last one.

  • What about self assured now?

  • Self-assured here's the pattern a self-assured person usually

  • now change the parentheses action connected to being self-assured.

  • So here's what you can say for this one.

  • I said a self-assured person usually.

  • Speaks well in front of a crowd of people.

  • So I used the pattern and made a perfect English sentence and you can do the same.

  • So again, you learned quite a few words today.

  • Real words you learned real life English that will help you sound

  • like a native English speaker.

  • Now I hope you enjoyed today's lesson.

  • I hope that you use.

  • The words and expressions and start sounding like a native English speaker.

  • Remember, don't forget to download the English with Tiffani app.

  • The link is right in the description.

  • I hope you have an awesome day and an awesome week and

  • I'll catch you next next time.

  • You still there.

  • Hi, you know what time it is?

  • It's story time.

  • I said it's store Rita.

  • So today, I want to tell you a story about my ride or die my best friend.

  • So I have to be very careful with the names that I use in this story, just

  • in case they watch this video later.

  • So this was when I was in college.

  • Now I had dated a guy all through high school at the beginning of high school,

  • and we also kind of hooked up a little bit through throughout college, but we

  • weren't together at the time of this.

  • So my best friend and I, we were going to another friend's event and this guy

  • just happened to also be at the event.

  • So myself, you know, I was going and my ride or die.

  • My best friend was coming with me.

  • So we were at the event and we were actually sitting at

  • a table about to eat lunch.

  • And she and I were sitting there talking.

  • And the guy, when I used to do.

  • Sat right in front of us.

  • So it was my friend and I sitting next to each other and then

  • the guy sat in front of us.

  • Now we didn't have a bad breakup, but it was still a little bit awkward between us.

  • So he sat down and he started talking.

  • Now, of course he was looking at me.

  • He knew my best friend.

  • Um, but he was talking to me and my best friend could tell that.

  • I wasn't necessarily comfortable.

  • I wasn't nervous.

  • It was more of why, why are we talking?

  • Like we're not together and you know, you're with somebody else.

  • I'm not, I'm confused why he's sitting here.

  • That was going on in my mind.

  • And my best friend picked it up.

  • So he's sitting there talking to me and the conversation kind of dwindles

  • and kind of stops a little bit.

  • And he's just sitting there looking.

  • So my best friend, let me tell you something about her.

  • Yes, she's my ride or die, but she's also a very reserved person.

  • Like we learned she's a little bit shy and she's not really the person

  • you'll see make the first step or make the first introduction.

  • She's kind of shot.

  • So I was sitting there and the guy was looking at me and I was looking at him

  • and it was getting a little bit awkward and my best friend who was reserved.

  • Why are you still sitting here?

  • And she was talking to him, it caught me off guard and he looked at her.

  • She said, if you're done, it's okay to walk away.

  • Now, the thing is, she's a very reserved person.

  • She doesn't normally do things like that.

  • So I looked at her because it caught me off guard.

  • And then I looked at him and he looked at her and then he looked back at me.

  • Just shrug my shoulders because I didn't know what to say.

  • She said, it's okay for you to walk away.

  • It's okay.

  • If the conversation is done and he did walk away, now don't get me wrong.

  • We're all still friends.

  • Like this happened a long time ago, but in that moment I realized my best friend may

  • be reserved, but when she needs to talk.

  • When she needs to speak up, she will.

  • Let's just say he never started an awkward conversation with

  • me again when she was around.

  • Now, since that time we've had many conversations, we've talked

  • a lot on the phone and everything.

  • He and I, but I will never forget that situation because my friend, the

  • reserved person that I thought would never speak up in certain situations.

  • Actually spoke up to stand up for me in that situation.

  • So maybe you have a friend like that too.

  • Your rider died that maybe he or she is reserved or seems like they want to be

  • in the background, but when it's time, they speak up and stand up for you.

  • So it was a shorter story today, but something that I will never, ever forget.

  • All right, guys, I hope you enjoyed today's lesson.

  • I hope you learned a lot and I hope you continue to study English.

  • I will see you next week.

  • Yeah.

Hey, you want to speak English like a native English speaker, right?
