Hey Flavia. How are you doing today? Good. And you? Pretty good. How's it going, Andreia?
7
48260
4300
00:52
Good. Yeah? Did you guys have a good week? Mm-hmm. Yes. But you were sick a little. Weren't you sick? Yeah. Are you better?
8
52640
7560
01:00
Because it's hot. It's cold in the train. Ah. It's true. It could be hot outside
9
60200
7620
01:07
could in a train. And air conditioning!
10
67820
2800
01:10
The air conditioning can be really cold. But it's too cold. I know. Sometimes yes. I don't understand.
11
70620
6260
01:16
Yes. In the United States, it's nice. There's air conditioning almost everywhere, but
12
76880
4840
01:21
sometimes it's too much. It's too cold. Yes. I know. I understand. Well, the last
13
81720
6900
01:28
time we talked about "be going to." Our plans for the future, plans for tonight,
14
88620
6870
01:35
plans for this weekend. We used "be going to." Let's remember the forms,
15
95490
4559
01:40
starting with I. I am going to... I am going... You...you are going to...he...he is
16
100049
14180
01:54
he is going to...she...she is going to...it...it is going to...we...we are going to...they...
17
114229
9551
02:03
they are going to...Of course, we often use the short forms, which we'll
18
123780
4320
02:08
practice today, but this time let's practice just remembering the forms: I am, you are,
19
128100
6360
02:14
he is. I'm going to say...I'll talk about plans. For example, I'll say,
20
134470
5790
02:20
"I plan to buy shoes." That's my plan. I plan to buy shoes. So you change it to: I
21
140260
7290
02:27
am going to buy shoes. I plan to buy shoes. I'm going to buy shoes. Same thing.
22
147550
7770
02:35
I plan...I'm going to. Okay? We plan to visit Canada. We are planning...Change "plan." Right? Ah, okay. So if
23
155320
11940
02:47
we change from "plan" to "be going to." So I'm going to say, "We plan to visit Canada."
24
167260
8420
02:55
We are going to visit Canada. Mm-hmm. He plans to sell his car. He is going to sell his car. Mm-hmm.
25
175720
11060
03:06
She plans to get a haircut. She's is going to cut...to cut her. You could, but
26
186880
11460
03:18
"Get a haircut." Get? Yeah. Get a haircut. Mm-hmm. Because someone
27
198340
6560
03:24
cuts our hair. So one more time. She plans to get a haircut.
28
204900
5100
03:30
She is going to get a haircut. Haircut. Haircut. Uh-huh. They plan to move to California.
29
210000
10580
03:40
They...they are going to move to Florida. To California. California. Florida is nice too!
30
220600
10520
03:51
Florida...California....there's sunshine. You plan to do laundry today.
31
231120
6420
03:57
You...you are going to do laundry today. Yes. Very good. Okay? All right. So now we'll try the short forms.
32
237540
12900
04:10
If I say, "They're going to...they are going to move to California,"
33
250440
5500
04:15
you say, "They're." They are. They're. They're going to move to California.
34
255940
4860
04:20
Okay? You are going to love this movie. You're going to love this movie. Yep.
35
260800
12100
04:32
And, of course, let's practice now" you're going to." In fast, relaxed speech, you'll
36
272920
6180
04:39
even hear "you're gonna." You're gonna love this movie, but for now let's practice
37
279100
4050
04:43
"you are going to." You're going to...you're going to love this movie. He is going to
38
283150
7230
04:50
meet her parents. He...he is going to meet her parents.
39
290380
7830
04:58
He's going to meet your...her parents...her parents. Parents. Right? Maybe there's a boy, John.
40
298210
6870
05:05
He knows Tiffany. John is going to meet
41
305080
4740
05:09
Tiffany's parents. I think John and Tiffany are close. Maybe they want to get
42
309820
5790
05:15
married. They're going to get married. Okay.
43
315610
2580
05:18
She is going to meet his parents. She's going to meet his parents.
44
318190
8230
05:26
It is going to be sunny tomorrow. It's going to...be...It's going to be sunny tomorrow. It's going to be sunny tomorrow.
45
326420
17280
05:43
I am going to do grocery shopping. I'm going to do grocery shopping. They are going to buy a car.
46
343700
9600
05:53
They are...they're...they're going to buy your car. Well, it could be my car, but...a car...a new car.
47
353320
11340
06:04
We are going to move.
48
364660
4400
06:09
We're? We're. We're going to move. That's a hard one. We are...we're. We're going to move. We're going to move. Okay.
49
369060
10900
06:19
You are going to learn more grammar. You're...you're going to learn a grammar. Going to learn more grammar.
50
379980
9200
06:29
Learn more grammar. You're going to learn more grammar.You're going to learn more grammar.
51
389180
5460
06:34
You're going to learn more grammar. Yes, you are. Now change it to "not." I am not going
52
394640
7560
06:42
to do that. I am not going to do that.
53
402200
5860
06:48
I'm not...I'm not going to do that. So "I am" -- "I'm." All right. Just with "not." I'm not...I'm not going to do that.
54
408060
9200
06:57
You are not going to do that. You are not going to do that. Do that.
55
417260
7740
07:05
You are not going to do that. You are not going to do that. So how do you do it? You are...?
56
425000
5760
07:10
You're...you're going to do that. So, you're going to do that. You're not going to do that.
57
430760
7800
07:18
You're not going to do that. You're not going to...that.
58
438560
8640
07:27
You're not going to do that. You're not...so if we have "not," but it before.
59
447200
5700
07:32
Not going to do that. You're not going to do that.
60
452900
6920
07:39
Put "not"...you're not going to do that. She is not going to do that.
61
459820
8100
07:47
She's...she's not going to do that. Right!
62
467920
6020
07:53
And with "she's," you could say, "She's not going to do that" or "She isn't going to
63
473940
3870
07:57
do that." She's not...she isn't...she isn't going to do that. Yeah. She isn't going to do that.
64
477810
7450
08:05
You aren't going to do that? True. You could do that, so watch. You could do "you're not"
65
485260
8940
08:14
or you "aren't." It doesn't matter.
66
494200
4800
08:20
You aren't.
67
500500
1800
08:22
You're not. He's not. He isn't. It doesn't matter. Okay? There are two ways.
68
502300
6920
08:29
You can do the contraction either way. I learn more in school "you aren't." That's fine. Okay. You'll hear both.
69
509220
11280
08:40
You didn't practice that. Yes. But you'll hear it. You'll hear both. Right? Sometimes when
70
520500
4880
08:45
we use it this way, it sounds strong. Like, "You're not going to do that!" So if you want
71
525400
5160
08:50
to emphasize "not" and make "not" sound strong, you can say, "He's not going to
72
530560
5759
08:56
like that." Right? He isn't going to like that. You feel the difference. He isn't going to
73
536319
4320
09:00
like that. He's not going to like that. But you'll hear both, so he's not...he
74
540639
5581
09:06
isn't. If I say "she," she is not going to do that. We can say, "She's not going to
75
546220
9570
09:15
do that" or "she isn't going to to do that." So with "going," remember it's "going to."
76
555790
8090
09:23
She isn't going to do that. She's isn't going to...that. To do that.
77
563880
6600
09:30
We are not going to do that. We're...we're not going to do that. Again, you can do "we're not" or "we aren't going to do that."
78
570480
15460
09:45
We're not going to do that. Or we aren't. Right? We aren't going to do that. They are not going to do that. They are not going to do that.
79
585960
11640
09:57
So we can say, "They..they are...they aren't going to do that. So again, with "they," they aren't going to do that. Mm-hmm. So again,
80
597620
10180
10:07
with "they," you can do "they aren't." They aren't going to do that. Or you might hear, "They're...they're not going to do that.
81
607800
11120
10:18
Good. So you'll hear both. Listen and you'll probably hear both, see both.
82
618920
7200
10:28
Let's practice those negative verb forms a little more. Repeat after me.
83
628640
5160
10:33
I'm not going to tell you. You aren't going to like it. You're not going to
84
633840
12869
10:46
like it. She isn't going to leave. She's not going to leave.
85
646709
13310
11:01
He isn't going to buy it. He's not going to buy it. It isn't going to help.
86
661820
15170
11:18
It's not going to help. We aren't going to be late. We're not going to be late.
87
678620
14360
11:35
They aren't going to move. They're not going to move. Now let's speak a little
88
695790
13080
11:48
faster and we'll use "gonna." Repeat after me.
89
708870
4020
11:52
I'm not gonna tell you. You're not gonna like it.
90
712890
9080
12:03
She's not gonna leave. He's not gonna buy it. It's not going to help.
91
723260
13740
12:18
We're not going to be late. They're not gonna move. Okay. Let's talk about summer
92
738580
37470
12:56
vacations. Many people go on trips. They go someplace nice. They often go to a
93
776050
5310
13:01
beach. What are things that people take? They might take...what is that for their
94
781360
6870
13:08
skin to be safe? Sunblock. Yeah. You put on sunblock.
95
788230
9150
13:17
Sunblock. And what can you wear? Sunglasses?
96
797380
6300
13:26
Sunglasses. What can you...? Hat? Hat. A hat. Sun hat maybe because it doesn't keep you warm.
97
806660
8560
13:35
It's not a winter hat. It's a sun hat. Yeah. Or just a hat, but if you want to
98
815230
5550
13:40
explain. It's not a winter hat. It's a sun hat. Right? And what can women wear?
99
820780
5780
13:46
I don't know. No? Bikini? Bikini. Yeah. A bikini has two pieces, right? But in
100
826560
7240
13:53
general, you could also say "swimsuit." "Swimsuit" might be one piece or two. But
101
833800
7380
14:01
bikinis...only two: top and bottom. Right? What do men wear? Also swimsuit or
102
841180
6450
14:07
sometimes you'll hear, like, swim trunks.
103
847630
4130
14:12
Swim trunks. You might hear "swim trunks." But in general we can talk about
104
852030
4420
14:16
swimsuits for men and for women. Swimsuits. Bikinis...usually only for women but...
105
856450
6490
14:22
and swim trunks for men. It's just the shorts. Okay? What else can you take? Book. Some people
106
862940
6860
14:29
take something to read, a book, for example. Water. Water...?
107
869800
9240
14:40
Water what? Not a cup, not a glass...bottle. Bottle. Water bottle. Water bottle. And there are other
108
880000
9520
14:49
things you might need to take. Okay? Okay. So we're going to talk about going on a
109
889680
5280
14:54
trip. What are you going to take? There can be different things. You might take
110
894970
6090
15:01
sunblock, you might take your cats, and you might take your dog.
111
901060
5400
15:06
What else do people take? I would take my wallet.
112
906460
6560
15:13
With my money. Flip-flops. Good. Yes. If you're going to the beach, you want
113
913030
9540
15:22
flip-flops. With an -s. Flip-flops. I think that's a good one.
114
922570
8550
15:31
I might take a jacket or a sweater. A jacket or sweater. Perhaps. And I think just in case,
115
931120
9980
15:41
if you're going on a plane, you need a passport, driver's license, something like
116
941100
7060
15:48
that. Okay. I'm going on a vacation and I'm going to take my wallet.
117
948160
8330
15:56
Now you say, "I'm going on my vacation. I'm going to take my wallet and..." Remember. I'm going on
118
956490
8080
16:04
vacation, and I'm going to take my wallet. I'm going on vacation. I'm

9150
16:13
going to take...a wallet...my wallet. And I'm going to take, my dog. Okay. I'm going to... I'm going on

18:49

19:05
I'm going on vacation, and I'm going to take my wallet, my dog, my cats, my water bottle, my book, my flip-flops, my
135
1145500
16040
19:23
sunblock, my jacket, my passport! Good. And that's all! We're ready. We're going on vacation now.
136
1163760
13760
19:37
Okay. Be careful. Um, water bottle. Americans
137
1177520
3320
19:40
won't say "bottle." They'll say "boddle." Like a D. Bottle. Bottle. Make sure your
138
1180840
6000
19:46
tongue is there. Bottle bottle bottle. Water bottle. Let me hear you say
139
1186840
8640
19:55
book. (Repeats.) I'm taking a book. Okay. So we're going on vacation. We're ready.
140
1195480
10590
20:06
And notice when I said, "I'm going on vacation," we can also use the present
141
1206070
6599
20:12
progressive for future plans. You may hear people say, "I'm going to go on
142
1212669
4981
20:17
vacation...I'm going to go...I'm going on vacation." With the verb GO, we usually
143
1217650
7259
20:24
just say, "I'm going." All right. I'm going to a movie tonight. I'm going to meet my
144
1224909
5221
20:30
parents. I'm going to buy a new car--well, that's different, "I'm going to buy," but with
145
1230130

148
1246770

21:51
What are you gonna do this weekend? What are you...what are you gonna do this weekend?
157
1311570

21:58
What are you going to do this weekend? (Repeats.) Good. Yeah. I'm going to relax a little bit. I'm going to do
158
1318680
7460
22:06
laundry. I'm going to play the piano. What are you going to do this weekend?
159
1326140
5480
22:12
You're going to hear: What are you going to...? What are you gonna...?

1332880
2880
22:15
What are you going...what are you...what are... (Repeats.)
161
1335760
7880

165

22:48

166
1368820
14400
23:03

You can ask Andreia. What are you going to do tomorrow? Tomorrow? That's fine. Sure. Tomorrow? Tomorrow is Saturday.
169
1395120
13020
23:28
What are you going to do tomorrow? I'm gonna..I'm gonna...go to the beach.
170
1408140
10640
23:39
I'm going to the beach. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go to the beach. What are you going to do on
171
1419080
8440
23:47
Sunday? I'm gonna...to the supermarket. Ah. I'm going to the supermarket. I'm going grocery shopping. Yes.
172
1427520
13260
24:00
When we speak slowly, sometimes we switch to "I'm going to..." Rigt? Because if you say, "I'm gonna..."
173
1440780
9840
24:10
It's..."gonna" is usually fast speech. Usually. You might hear it, but I would say if you're
174
1450620
5020
24:15
thinking out loud. "Oh yeah. We're going to the supermarket." Right. But again if you
175
1455640
7560
24:23
know that is your plan, use "be going to." We're going to the supermarket on Sunday,
176
1463200
5940
24:29
so we're busy. You know your plans. If you don't know, often we switch to
177
1469140
6450
24:35
"will." "Sunday. I don't know what we're gonna do on Sunday. I'll...I don't know.
178
1475590
6840
24:42
I guess we'll stay home and I'll probably do some laundry." So when you're
179
1482430
7590
24:50
thinking out loud, you often switch to "will" when you're making your plans. Yeah.
180
1490020
5840
24:55
Um, why don't you ask me about Sunday? What are you going to do on Sunday?
181
1495860
18040
25:13
On Sunday. One more time. What are you going to do on Sunday?
182
1513900
5420
25:19
Um, I don't know. I usually do the housework, laundry, so I think I'll do
183
1519809
8350
25:28
more laundry. But we'll see. We'll see.So now I'm switching. I don't know what I'm
184
1528159
6781
25:34
doing on Sunday. Did you have a question? Mm-hmm.
185
1534940
4170
25:39
Can I use present progressive in this question? What are you going to... or
186
1539110
