02:39	, If you're in the big apple , be sure
02:42	to enjoy the eats , cronuts , street vendor ,
02:46	hot dogs and bagels . But a word to the
02:50	wise , you'll be paying eight more if you want
02:54	your bagels sliced City laws say that once the bread
02:58	has been sliced , it's a prepared meal and must
03:02	be taxed like a restaurant meal . So get your
03:05	locks and schmear on the side and use a plastic
03:08	knife to cut your bag all . It'll save you
03:11	just over a quarter . I guess today's news was
03:19	very , very difficult . Let me read it a
03:22	little bit slower . If you are in the Big
03:27	Apple , be sure to enjoy the eats cronuts street
03:34	vendor hot dogs and bagels . But a word to
03:40	the wise , You'll be paying eight more if you
03:45	want your bagel sliced City Laws say that once the
03:52	bread has been sliced , it's a prepared meal and
03:58	must be taxed like a restaurant meal . So get
04:03	your locks and schmear on the side and use a
04:08	plastic knife to cut your bag . Als it'll save
04:12	you just over a quarter . Was that any easier
04:21	? Oh , I don't know . This was tough
04:24	. So the story takes place in which city ?
04:30	Yes , that's right . Many of you know ,
04:34	New york City , New york City has the nickname
04:39	The Big Apple . And the story is talking about
04:44	what ? That's right . It's talking about bagels ,
04:50	B A G E L S bagels , bagels are
04:56	a type of bread . They look like a doughnut
05:00	, but they're much heavier and sometimes they're sweet .
05:05	But many times they're not sweet . Lots of people
05:08	eat them as kind of a sandwich , especially in
05:12	the morning . And what's the point of this news
05:19	? Well , the point of the news is to
05:22	save you some money . So let's go look at
05:27	the first sentence again . If you're in the big
05:31	apple , if you are in new york city ,
05:35	the big apple . Now , why is new york
05:38	city called the big Apple ? I never saw any
05:43	apple trees in new york . Well , it's actually
05:47	a very old history and it refers to horse racing
05:55	. So lots of people a long time ago they
06:00	wanted to race their horses in New york city because
06:07	the biggest prizes , the biggest money prizes were in
06:13	new york city . Okay , do you understand ?
06:16	So what does a horse like to eat a horse
06:21	likes to eat an apple ? So after a horse
06:26	runs a horse race , they give it apples .
06:31	Well , the big apple is the big prize and
06:36	new york City had the biggest apple , the biggest
06:40	horse racing prize of all the horse races in America
06:46	. So a lot of people who were horse racers
06:50	, their dream was to get to win the Big
06:55	Apple . And where was the big Apple ? It
06:58	was in new york city . So horse racers could
07:02	say this to each other , Hey john where are
07:06	you going ? Next week ? Next week I'm going
07:09	to get the Big Apple . You're going to New
07:13	york city to win the big money prize . Yes
07:19	. And because of this tradition , new york city
07:22	became known as the Big Apple . So if you're
07:26	in the Big Apple , if you're in New york
07:28	city , be sure to make sure you do something
07:33	, be sure to enjoy the E . It's E
07:37	A T s . Now this is a noun ,
07:40	it's not a verb . The eats means the food
07:45	, but it refers to specific food in this case
07:50	in new york city . So what are the famous
07:54	foods in new york city ? Cronuts street vendor ,
08:00	hot dogs and bagels . Now , Cronuts , we
08:05	studied about those in DDM So if you are a
08:09	DDM member then you know all about cronuts . Cronuts
08:15	are a combination of a crescent and a doughnut .
08:21	It's once again a morning meal , I guess we
08:25	could call it a meal . It's a type of
08:27	pastry . Crescent is a pastry of french pastry and
08:33	a donut is a deep fried piece of dough .
08:36	So a Cronin is a combination croissant and doughnut .
08:41	That's very traditional new york . It was invented in
08:44	new york last year and it's very popular all around
08:48	the world . So that is a big Apple eat
08:53	. Another thing to eat in new york city would
08:57	be street vendor hot dogs , you know what a
09:02	street vendor is , People who sell things on the
09:05	street and new york city has many street vendor hot
09:10	dogs , street vendors that sell hot dogs and they
09:13	really are delicious . And another Big Apple eat would
09:19	be the bagel , B A G E L plural
09:24	. Of course bagels , bagels are a type of
09:28	bread and it's boiled and then baked and it's kind
09:35	of hard and shiny on the outside and very chewy
09:41	. Lots of people add cream cheese or jelly .
09:45	They make sandwiches , bagels are really delicious breads and
09:51	they come from Poland . But many people think they're
09:55	a type of jewish bread because lots of jewish people
09:59	live in new york city and they like , they
10:02	like bagels . But no it's not a jewish bread
10:06	. I don't think it's actually a polish bread .
10:09	So if you're in the Big Apple , be sure
10:12	to enjoy the eats . Cronuts street vendor , hot
10:16	dogs and Bangles . But a word to the wise
10:22	. But here is some important information , a tip
10:27	to the smart people . So if you want to
10:29	be a wise person , if you want to be
10:32	a smart person here is a word , a tip
10:36	that you need to listen to . You'll be paying
10:40	eight more if you want your bagel sliced . So
10:47	if you buy a bag a well and you ask
10:51	the restaurant or the bakery too cut the bag all
10:55	to slice the bag all in half , Then you
11:00	will have to pay eight more . You have to
11:04	pay eight more to slice a piece of bread .
11:07	Why ? City laws say that once the bread has
11:13	been sliced it's a prepared meal and must be taxed
11:19	like a restaurant meal . So new york , city
11:23	laws say that if bread is cut then it requires
11:30	a chef or a professional food service person to cut
11:36	the bread , which means it's not just an over
11:40	the counter donut . Now it is a prepared meal
11:45	, a meal that is prepared for you and therefore
11:51	it must be taxed like a restaurant meal . So
11:57	if you buy a bag a well and it's not
12:00	sliced , you don't have to pay tax . But
12:04	if it's sliced , you have to pay eight tax
12:09	. So get your locks and schmear on the side
12:14	and use a plastic knife to cut your bagel .
12:19	So when you buy your bagel , don't have them
12:25	cut it and get your locks and schmear on the
12:31	side . Now locks actually refers to smoked salmon salmon
12:40	. S . A L . M . O N
12:43	. It's a fish . And in America , smoked
12:46	salmon almost always comes from Alaska . It's a very
12:51	pink actually orange meat . It's very good . That's
12:56	locks L . O . X locks , smoked salmon
13:00	and schmear . S C H M E A R
13:06	schmear . This is cream cheese . So many people
13:12	when they eat a bagel they use or they put
13:16	cream cheese on the top and smoked salmon , but
13:21	in new york city they say locks and schmear in
13:26	my hometown , we say smoked salmon and cream cheese
13:33	, locks and schmear are very new york words .
13:36	So if you go to new york , you'll definitely
13:40	see locks and schmear if you go to a traditional
13:43	bangle place , so one more time . So get
13:48	your locks and schmear on the side , don't get
13:52	it on the bagel , but get it on the
13:55	side , get it separately and use a plastic knife
14:01	to cut your bag all . Usually at the stores
14:05	, they'll have plastic knives that you can take to
14:09	spread your cheese and also cut your bangle . If
14:14	you do that , it'll save you just over a
14:18	quarter , It will save you 25 cents , a
14:23	little more than 25 cents in America . A quarter
14:28	is a coin And it's the 25 cent coin .
14:33	So in new york city , if you buy a
14:36	fresh bagel , It's usually about $3 . $3 times
14:42	eight would be 24 cents . But it's always a
14:47	little bit more than $3 . So it'll save you
14:50	just over a quarter . All right . So hopefully
14:55	the story is a little bit easier to understand .
14:59	Let's review some of the words and make sure you
15:02	understand them . The big Apple eats cronuts street vendor
15:12	hot dogs bagels . A word to the wise sliced
15:21	prepared meal locks schmear on the side a quarter .
15:32	Let's listen to the story again . The first time
15:35	I'll say it nice and smooth . The second time
15:40	I'll say it like a p news . Are you
15:43	ready ? If you're in the Big Apple , be
15:49	sure to enjoy the eats cronuts street vendor , hot
15:54	dogs and bagels . But a word to the wise
16:00	, You'll be paying eight more if you want your
16:04	bagel sliced City laws say that once the bread has
16:11	been sliced , it's a prepared meal and must be
16:16	taxed like a restaurant meal . So get your locks
16:21	and schmear on the side and use a plastic knife
16:26	to cut your bag all . It'll save you just
16:29	over a quarter If you're in the big apple ,
16:36	be sure to enjoy the eats cronuts , street vendor
16:39	, hot dogs and bagels . But a word to
16:43	the wise , you'll be paying eight more if you
16:46	want your bagels sliced City Laws say that once the
16:50	bread has been sliced , it's a prepared meal and
16:53	must be taxed like a restaurant meal . So get
16:57	your locks and schmear on the side and use a
16:59	plastic knife to cut your bag all . It'll save
17:02	you just over a quarter . Mhm . Okay ,
17:12	this is the Q and a section for let's Master
17:15	english . And we have three questions today . The
17:18	first question comes from Nick Nathan johnson and he wants
17:23	to know the difference between active and proactive . Well
17:29	, nick to be active means to move around a
17:35	lot , so if you are not active , you
17:40	will get fat . And another example , it is
17:45	important to keep your mind active , especially as you
17:51	get older . So active means movement , moving around
17:57	to be proactive means to act or to move in
18:03	anticipation of some future problem or some future opportunity .
18:12	So for example , saving money in the bank is
18:17	proactive because you might have an emergency and need the
18:23	money in the future . Now , nick , I
18:27	made a big example using both of the words in
18:33	the same paragraph , and it's about my son .
18:35	So , Nick , I hope this makes it clear
18:38	. My son is very active . Sometimes his activity
18:44	causes him to get hurt when he's active in the
18:49	kitchen . I must be proactive . I must look
18:54	for potential dangers and remove them . Uh huh .
18:59	There's a knife in the sink . I don't want
19:02	my son playing with that . I'll clean it and
19:06	put it away before he finds it . So nick
19:10	. I hope that last example was clear my son
19:14	is active and I was being proactive in order to
19:19	protect him so that he didn't get hurt . Okay
19:23	, our next question is from Cathy E . And
19:27	she wants to know about the R . Sound the
19:30	R . Sound after th is it like the spanish
19:36	are Now when we say the spanish are this is
19:40	kind of my expression . And I mean the river
19:45	river Ryba that's my spanish are so that rolling ,
19:50	that type of , our many countries have this type
19:53	of an R . Sound . So if there's a
19:56	. Th and then an R . Is it like
19:59	the spanish are for example T . H . R
20:03	. E . Three T . H . R .
20:07	O . W throw T . H . R .
20:10	O . U . G . H . Through T
20:14	. H . R . I . V . E
20:16	thrive . And my answer Kathy is no no it's
20:21	not . The R . Does not touch the top
20:27	of the mouth , the roof of the mouth .
20:30	Specifically the al viola ridge the tongue doesn't touch .
20:35	So let's look at the number three . So T
20:40	. H . R . E . Let's just say
20:43	R . E . Re . Re re not re
20:48	re re re not that re re and then let's
20:54	add the th read 3333 . So when you do
21:03	the th sound Immediately bring your tongue down . Don't
21:10	let the tongue go up . Otherwise you'll say three
21:14	Go Down 3 3 . And the same with throw
21:24	for example throw the ball . R . O .
21:26	W . Ro ro ro throw throw throw throw the
21:31	ball through . T . H . R . O
21:35	. U . G . H . Rew rew rew
21:38	kangaroo , kangaroo through through through . And thrive th
21:45	R . I . V . E thrive thrive thrive
21:50	thrive . So no there's no rolling . Are we
21:55	don't say three throw through thrive it's three throw through
22:02	thrive So Kathy keep practicing . Get that are sound
22:07	down in America that are sound is very important .
22:12	And our third question comes from Mohammed Al Ajmi .
22:17	I hope I pronounced that right Mohammed Mohammed's question is
22:21	why is the D . In Friends Silent Friends ?
22:26	F . R . I . E . N .
22:28	D . S . That's a great question Mohammed .
22:31	And we study this all the time in D .
22:34	D . M . So let me give you a
22:36	really short free lesson . We have three strong sounds
22:42	in american english the S . N . And L
22:46	. Those sounds are very strong . We can always
22:50	hear those sounds . And we have three week sounds
22:54	in american english the to end the th the D
22:59	. T . Th . Those are very weak many
23:02	times . We can't hear them especially when a strong
23:07	sound is next to a week sound . The week
23:11	sound can be canceled and that's what happens in the
23:15	word . Friends . We have an N . D
23:18	. S . The N . And the S .
23:21	Are strong sounds and the D . Is a week
23:25	sound so we can cancel the D . And just
23:29	say friends . Friends Mohamed and I are friends .
23:35	We're friends . I have two friends . Friends got
23:40	it . Thanks a lot for your questions and remember
23:43	use coach Shane's E . S . L . To
23:47	ask your questions and maybe I'll get it in a
23:50	podcast or maybe I'll make a video for you .
23:53	I do have lots of questions to go through so
23:57	please be patient how you doing everybody . This is
24:07	country Shane and I'm here to bring you the facts
24:11	. The english language sometimes lies , french fries are
24:16	not french , they're Belgian and the french poodle ,
24:20	it's german and the french horn is germane to french
24:26	toast . How french toast it was around long before
24:31	France became a country . So don't believe everything you
24:35	hear in english because sometimes the english language lies .
24:41	This has been country Shane bringing you the facts .
25:03	Okay . It's time for today's let's master english studying
25:08	tip . Now today's tip is actually two parts and
25:13	the first part is know why you want to learn
25:19	english . A lot of people , they start to
25:23	study something and then after a while they give up
25:29	, the reason they give up is they don't really
25:32	have a passion , they don't really have a reason
25:38	, it's not very necessary right now for them .
25:43	So they give up and that can be done in
25:46	sports and studying in relationships . It happens a lot
25:50	, but don't let it happen to you and your
25:54	english think about it . Why do you want to
25:58	study english ? Maybe your goal is to make friends
26:04	around the world . Maybe an american friend , a
26:06	Canadian friend , a british friend , maybe a friend
26:09	in Egypt and you don't speak Arabic and you want
26:13	to speak english or maybe a friend in India or
26:16	Russia or Argentina wherever . Maybe you want to study
26:22	english to travel . Yeah , you can almost go
26:27	anywhere in the world and speak english . They'll have
26:32	english guides in every country . They have english travel
26:37	books in every country , the hotels all around the
26:41	world , they speak some english . So maybe it's
26:45	for travel or maybe you love technology , you want
26:50	to study , you want to study about any subject
26:54	, whether it's greek , history or the pyramids in
26:59	Egypt or american , history or whatever technology , all
27:03	the Apple computer programming , languages and everything else .
27:08	Technology . So much of it is in english ,
27:12	you need to know english to really understand technology and
27:18	the sciences . Maybe that's your reason . Maybe it's
27:21	so that you can watch movies and listen to songs
27:25	and not have to worry about the lyrics or the
27:28	subtitles . Maybe you need to master english for business
27:34	or because you want to study in America . Well
27:38	this is your homework . I want you to really
27:41	think about why you want to master english , what's
27:47	the ultimate goal ? And once you think about that
27:51	goal , once you decide on what your goal is
27:56	, you have to start imagining yourself being successful ,
28:02	you have to imagine yourself speaking english fluently listening to
28:08	a movie and a pop song and understanding everything ,
28:11	laughing at the humor , crying at the sad things
28:16	. You have to imagine yourself in a business meeting
28:19	getting a great contract or studying in an american university
28:24	, understanding what the professor is saying and debating with
28:30	other students and winning the debate , you have to
28:35	pick your passion . What is it , what is
28:38	your goal with english ? I'm gonna help you ,
