  20. roam, you move, travel, or walk aimlessly without a clear idea of what you're gonna do or where you're gonna2:55
  21. go.3:03
  22. Here's an example from Frozen 2.3:04
  23. too.3:09
  24. A ball is a large formal occasion where people usually dress nicely and dance.3:10
  25. A ballroom is the place where balls take place or happen.3:21
  26. We also have the ballroom dance.3:26
  27. Ballroom dancing includes some genres, for example, the waltz, the cha -cha, the rumba and the quick step.3:29
  28. Finally they're opening up the gates!3:37
  29. The phrasal verb to open up is really interesting because there are two possible meanings here.3:41
  30. The first meaning is more literal, just like it's been used in the clip here.3:46
  31. To open up in this case means to open the lock on a door, for example.3:50
  32. But to open up to someone means to share your ideas, your feelings and thoughts with that person.3:55
  33. So if I say, come on, open up to me, I'm asking you to share your thoughts and feelings with4:03
  34. me.4:10
  35. Tell me what's going on.4:10
  36. Here's an example.4:12
  37. What's your problem?4:13
  38. I'm hot.4:14
  39. That's my problem.4:15
  40. Knock, knock.4:17
  41. I'm knocking on the door, big guy.4:18
  42. Open it.4:20
  43. No.4:22
  44. Open up to me.4:23
  45. No.4:25
  46. Share with me.4:25
  47. Uh -uh.4:26
  48. No way.4:27
  49. There'll be actual real -life people.4:28
  50. It'll be totally strange.4:30
  51. There will be.4:33
  52. This is the full version.4:34
  53. In the song, we hear the contracted version.4:36
  54. There'll be.4:39
  55. There'll be actual real -life people.4:41
  56. It'll be totally strange.4:43
  57. Also, there's another contraction here for it will be.4:46
  58. We hear it'll be.4:50
  59. It'll be.4:52
  60. So, this contraction of it and will sounds like it'll.4:53
  61. It'll.4:58
  62. It'll be totally strange.4:59
  63. It'll be totally strange.5:02
  64. Wow, am I so ready for this change.5:11
  65. But wow, am I so ready for this change.5:15
  66. Notice that the auxiliary here, am, is being reversed.5:19
  67. It's coming before the subject, I.5:23
  68. Am I so ready for this change?5:26
  69. But this is not a question, this is an exclamation.5:28
  70. Sometimes you see that in movies and series, people reverse the order of the auxiliary and the subject, not to5:33
  71. make a question as you would normally think, but to be more emphatic.5:40
  72. For example, I could tell you, boy, I'm tired.5:44
  73. That's fine, but if I reverse the order, I sound more emphatic.5:48
  74. For example, boy, am I tired.5:53
  75. You see?5:56
  76. Or I could go, boy, I'm lucky.5:58
  77. Reversing, boy, am I lucky.6:02
  78. For the first time in forever, I'll be dancing through the night.6:05
  79. Through the night is similar to during the night, but through the night has this idea of from beginning to6:14
  80. end.6:21
  81. Through the night, from the beginning of the night to the end of the night.6:22
  82. I also see that a lot in songs, you know, this phrase through the night.6:26
  83. Here are some examples.6:30
  84. Don't know if I'm elated or gassy, but I'm somewhere in the zone.6:45
  85. This is a great word, elated or elated.6:50
  86. It's really advanced.6:54
  87. It means to be extremely happy.6:55
  88. I'm extremely happy.6:57
  89. I'm elated.6:59
  90. Now, gassy.7:01
  91. If you are gassy, you are full of gas.7:02
  92. Your stomach is full of gas.7:04
  93. Here, Anna is saying, I don't know if I'm elated or gassy.7:06
  94. Gassy maybe because she's nervous because of the ball that they are about to have.7:10
  95. Here's an example with each one of these words.7:15
  96. Check it out.7:18
  97. Oh, how elated I am to hear that.7:19
  98. That sucks.7:22
  99. I know.7:23
  100. I'm so gassy.7:24
  101. If you're like most learners, then you probably get really frustrated when you learn a new word, like elated, for7:34
  102. example.7:41
  103. But when it's time to speak English with people, you completely forget it, right?7:42
  104. Now, personally, I find that the best solution for this is whenever you learn a new word or expression, to7:47
  105. use it as soon as possible in conversation.7:54
  106. But then, what happens?7:57
  107. What do you do if you don't have anybody to practice speaking English with?7:59
  108. Well, that's exactly why we created the RealLife app, which is the only place where anytime, anywhere, you can press8:04
  109. a button and instantly connect to another English speaker in another other part of the world, to have a conversation8:11
  110. and speak together, and maybe even practice all these new expressions that you're learning in today's lesson.8:17
  111. And on the app, you can also listen to the RealLife English podcast lessons with Ethan and myself.8:23
  112. We give you transcripts and vocabulary flashcards to help you understand and learn even more with each new episode.8:28
  113. By the way, the app is free to download.8:36
  114. upload.8:39
  115. Now, check out what one of our app users, Shirley, has to say about her experience using the app.8:39
  116. The RealLife app is a groundbreaking app for English learners because we can practice many abilities in one place.8:46
  117. While we are listening to a podcast, we can read following the transcript and then practice the vocabulary through flashcards.8:53
  118. Personally, flashcards are the best thing since sliced bread.9:02
  119. I recall words faster while I'm speaking, not to mention I have a better understanding while I'm reading, listening, and9:06
  120. watching.9:13
  121. On top of all that, we can sharpen our speaking skills by talking to people around the globe.9:14
  122. It's simply fascinating.9:20
  123. So if you want to go from feeling like a lost, insecure English learner to becoming a confident, natural English9:22
  124. speaker just like Shirley is doing, make sure you download the RealLife English app.9:29
  125. I'm gonna leave a link to the app here in the description of this video.9:34
  126. You can also go to Google Play Store or Apple App Store, search for RealLife English and download the app.9:38
  127. Remember, it's free to download and try, I'm sure you're gonna love it.9:44
  128. Now let's get back to the lesson with Frozen.9:47
  129. The snow glows white on the mountain tonight Not a footprint to be seen A kingdom of isolation And it10:04
  130. looks like I'm the queen The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside I couldn't keep it in heaven10:15
  131. knows I tried Don't let them in, don't let them see Be the good girl you always have to be10:28
  132. Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know Well now they know Let it go, let it go Can't hold it10:40
  133. back anymore Let it go, let it go Turn away and slam the door I don't care What they're going10:54
  134. to say Let the storm rage on The cold never bothered me anyway Again, we have two possible meanings here11:08
  135. for the word glow.11:30
  136. The primary one is the one that you see here in the song.11:31
  137. When something glows, it produces continuous light or even heat.11:34
  138. But a second meaning, which is very interesting, is if you say that a person glows or is glowing, you11:39
  139. mean that that person looks well because the person is healthy or happy.11:46
  140. For example, the kids were glowing with excitement.11:50
  141. You see?11:55
  142. The kids were glowing with excitement.11:56
  143. They were really happy.11:58
  144. Very nice use of the word.11:59
  145. Make sure you remember that.12:00
  146. Your footprints are the marks you leave on the ground with your foot, usually on soft surfaces, such as mud12:05
  147. or snow in this case.12:12
  148. That reminds me of an example of the Ice Age movie.12:15
  149. Here it is.12:18
  150. Ellie, look at our footprints.12:21
  151. They're the same shape.12:24
  152. Well, how do I know those aren't your footprints?12:27
  153. This is really cool.12:37
  154. And it looks like I'm the queen.12:38
  155. So, when you say it looks like, Usually you are referring to something you are literally looking.12:41
  156. Alright?12:48
  157. Imagine I look up the sky and I say, Whoa, it looks like it's going to rain.12:49
  158. You see, I'm seeing it.12:54
  159. I can look at it.12:56
  160. It looks like it's going to rain.12:57
  161. But if you hear something, you could say it sounds like, because you are listening to it or hearing it.12:59
  162. For example, imagine I'm talking to you right now, and then my daughter, who is a baby by the way,13:07
  163. starts crying.13:12
  164. crying and then I can listen to her crying and I can say well my daughter is crying it sounds13:13
  165. like she's hungry you see it sounds like she's hungry now if you can feel something if you can touch13:20
  166. it you could say feel like imagine I touch the table here and I say whoa this table is hot13:28
  167. it feels like something hot or warm was on top of it just now.13:35
  168. It feels like it.13:41
  169. You see?13:43
  170. Now, if you want to be more generic, if you don't want to talk about one specific sense, like seeing,13:44
  171. hearing, or touching, generically speaking, you could say seem.13:49
  172. It seems like.13:54
  173. So, it seems like can be used in all situations, okay?13:55
  174. It seems like it's going to rain.13:58
  175. It seems like she's hungry.14:00
  176. It seems like like something hot was here a while ago.14:02
  177. The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside.14:07
  178. To howl means to make a loud sound, usually a loud sound of sadness or pain.14:13
  179. Some animals howl, for example, let's say dogs and wolves.14:19
  180. Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know?14:24
  181. Now here in the song, we see the wind is howling.14:28
  182. The wind is howling.14:32
  183. This sounds more poetic, right?14:35
  184. The wind is so strong that it's almost making the howling sound.14:37
  185. Got it?14:41
  186. It's poetic.14:41
  187. Cool, right?14:42
  188. Now, to swirl means to make a quick circular movement, like I'm doing right now with my finger.14:44
  189. Alright?14:50
  190. Here's an example.14:51
  191. Whoops, forgot to swirl it!14:53
  192. Again, in the song this sounds very figurative or even poetic.14:56
  193. Imagine a storm swirling inside Elsa because she's conflicted, she's doubtful, she's frustrated.15:00
  194. So it's like there's a storm swirling inside of her.15:08
  195. The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside.15:12
  196. Storm inside.15:18
  197. Can you hear the connection here?15:20
  198. You have the M for storm and the vowel I for inside.15:22
  199. You can join the M with the I, so we hear storming, storming, men, storming side.15:27
  200. The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside, swirling storm inside.15:36
  201. I couldn't keep it and heaven knows I tried.15:46
  202. This is a nice phrase.16:00
  203. You can say heaven knows when you want to emphasize something you believe to be true and you believe it16:02
  204. very strongly.16:09
  205. only.16:09
  206. Here's an example.16:10
  207. Heaven knows how much I had to work to be where I am today.16:11
  208. More connected speech.16:19
  209. Don't let them in.16:21
  210. So don't, the T here kind of goes away.16:23
  211. Don't.16:26
  212. Don't let them.16:27
  213. So the T for let also disappears.16:28
  214. I pronounce only the T for them.16:32
  215. Don't let Let them, don't let them.16:35
  216. But then again, remember the M and the vowel for I, we can join them.16:37
  217. Let them in, men.16:42
  218. Don't let them in, don't let them in.16:45
  219. And then the next phrase is, don't let them see.16:48
  220. We also have the beginning there.16:51
  221. Don't let them, don't let them see.16:53
  222. them to see Be the good girl you always have to be.17:05
  223. Conceal don't feel, don't let them know Another great advanced word, to conceal.17:17
  224. That's a verb.17:26
  225. When you conceal something, you hide.17:27
  226. You keep it from sight.17:29
  227. Nobody can see it.17:31
  228. As you can see in the clip just now, after being cursed, the prince, now a beast, concealed himself in17:32
  229. the castle.17:40
  230. In other words, he started to hide in the castle.17:40
  231. Ashamed of his monstrous form, the beast concealed himself inside his castle with a magic mirror as his only window17:44
  232. to the outside world.17:52
  233. Let it go, the famous line of the song.17:58
  234. So, let it go.18:05
  235. The T for let is a flat T sound, ra ra ra, and then let it, let it.18:07
  236. I joined that sound, ra ra ra, with the I for it.18:14
  237. So, So let it go.18:18
  238. And also the T for it is a stop consonant.18:20
  239. It, it, let it, let it, let it go.18:23
  240. That also reminds me of the famous classic song from the Beatles, Let It Be.18:29
  241. The connection is the same.18:34
  242. Let it go, let it, let it be, let it.18:35
  243. Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.18:41
  244. Turn away and slam the door If you slam a door, you shut the door in a forceful way, in18:46
  245. an aggressive way.18:55
  246. And it makes that loud banging noise.18:56
  247. Pow!18:59
  248. Here in the context of the movie and the song, Elsa is singing about her determination to leave her hometown.19:00
  249. So she leaves her hometown with determination, almost in a forceful way.19:07
  250. She slams the door and never looks back.19:12
  251. I don't care what they're going to say.19:15
  252. Let the storm rage on.19:21
  253. Rage as a noun means violent, aggressive, uncontrollable anger.19:25
  254. But it can also be a verb.19:31
  255. If something rages, it happens in an uncontrollable way.19:33
  256. So here, to rage on, it's almost like keep happening this way, because we have the phrase over keep on,19:37
  257. for example.19:45
  258. Keep on is like continue.19:46
  259. So let the storm rage on.19:48
  260. Let the storm continue to be so uncontrolled, so violent and aggressive like that.19:50
  261. Big storm.19:56
  262. Awesome.19:58
  263. Now it's time for the moment of truth.19:58
  264. Can you listen to the scenes again, in this case the songs, and understand everything everything without the subtitles.20:01
  265. Let's put your listening to the test and watch everything now without subtitles.20:07
  266. Here it goes.20:12
  267. The window was open, so's that door.20:17
  268. I didn't know they did that anymore.20:20
  269. Who knew we owned 8 ,000 salad plates?20:22
  270. For years I've roamed these empty halls.20:27
  271. Why have a ballroom with no balls?20:29
  272. Finally they're opening up the gates In another meaning of this phrasal verb, if you open up to someone, you20:32
  273. get angry at this person, share your feelings with this person, don't talk to this person.20:41
  274. There'll be actual real -life people, it'll be totally strange Wow, am I so ready for this change Cause for20:53
  275. the first time in forever There'll be music, there'll be light For the first time in forever I'll be dancing21:03
  276. through the night Don't know if I'm elated or gassy To be elated means to be extremely nervous to be21:17
  277. extremely curious, to be extremely happy.21:27
  278. The snow glows white on the mountain tonight Not a footprint to be seen A kingdom of isolation And it22:04
  279. looks like I'm the queen The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside I couldn't keep it in, heaven22:16
  280. knows I tried Don't let them in, don't let them see Be the good girl you always have to be22:29
  281. Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know A synonym for conceal is hide, share, argue.22:40
  282. Well now they know Let it go, let it go Can't hold it back anymore Let it go, let it23:01
  283. go Turn away and slam the door I don't care what they're going to say Let the storm rage on23:14
  284. The cold never bothered me anyway All right, now it's time for the comment of the day.23:29
