The video aims to provide viewers with practical steps that, if followed diligently, will lead to significant improvement in their spoken English.
Morning Routine: From Waking Up to Brushing Teeth
Start your day by verbalizing your actions in English. Upon waking up, say "Got up." As you get out of bed, say "I am getting off the bed." When looking for your slippers, ask "Where are my slippers?" and as you put them on, say "I wear slippers." Check the time and state it in English, for example, "It's 6:52." If someone asks why you're mumbling, respond, "Actually, I am learning English nowadays."
Daily Activities: From Running to Washing Face
Incorporate English into your daily activities. When going for a run, say "I go for running." If going to the gym, say "I go to the gym." While brushing your teeth, say "I brush my teeth." As you put toothpaste on your brush, say "I put the paste on my brush." After brushing, say "I rinse my mouth." When washing your face, say "I apply face wash on my face."
Bathroom Routine: From Applying Soap to Drying Off
Continue verbalizing your actions in the bathroom. As you close the bathroom door, say "I close the bathroom door." When applying soap, say "I am applying soap on my body." If using shampoo, say "I apply shampoo on my hair today." While washing, say "I rinse my body." After bathing, as you grab a towel, say "I take the towel." As you dry yourself, say "I dab my body with a towel." Remember to turn on the tap by saying "Turn on the tap" and turn it off by saying "Turn off the tap."
Daily Interactions: Greetings and Responses
Use English greetings throughout the day. Greet family members with "Good morning." Use "Good afternoon" between 12 PM and 4 PM. Say "Good night" when someone is going to sleep. When checking your phone, say "I check WhatsApp." Instead of asking "How are you?" in Hindi, ask "What's up?" or "How's it going?" Respond with "I am fine."
Conversational Phrases: Agreement and Understanding
Incorporate English phrases into conversations. Instead of saying "right" in Hindi, use "Right," "Alright," or "I see." When listening to someone, use "Okay," "Alright," or "I see" in sequence. If someone is telling you something surprising, say "Ah, really?" or "Edit." Start sentences with "By the way" to introduce a new topic.
Expanding Vocabulary: "Even," "Nothing Like That," and "What Happened"
Enhance your vocabulary with specific words and phrases. Use "Even" to express "me too" or "I also." Replace "yes" with "Yeah" or "Yep." Instead of saying "there is nothing like that," use "Nothing like that." Replace "what happened" with "What's up?" or "What's wrong?"
Common Phrases: "Are You Okay," "Actually," and "Anyway"
Learn and use common English phrases. If someone seems upset, ask "Are you okay?" Use "Actually" to introduce a fact or opinion. When changing the subject, use "Anyway." If you didn't hear something, say "Pardon?" or "Sorry?" Instead of "congratulations," say "Congrats." To praise someone, say "Well done."
Meal Times: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner
Verbalize your meal times in English. When about to have breakfast, say "Lemme have breakfast." For lunch, say "Lemme take lunch," and for dinner, say "Lemme have dinner." While eating, say "I am having vegetables." Use "chapati" instead of "roti" to practice English.
Additional Phrases: Seeking Advice and Expressing Confusion
Learn phrases for seeking advice and expressing confusion. If seeking advice, say "What should I do?" If unsure how to do something, ask "How to do it?" When looking for something, say "Where is the soap? I can't find the soap."
Mirror Affirmations and Daily Activities
Use mirror affirmations and daily activities to practice English. While looking in the mirror, say "I am combing my hair."
Ending Conversations and Making Plans
Learn phrases for ending conversations and making plans. To end a discussion, say "End of discussion." When planning to call or text someone, say "I'll call you" or "I'll text you." Use "on" with days of the week, such as "I'll call you on Monday." If someone is acting crazy, ask "Are you mad?"
