- Are you learning how to speak English? You’re probably wondering how Americans speak so fast! You’re not alone. English students are constantly working on speaking English faster and I can help. Speaking fast American English requires you to practice reductions and linking in real-time. And nothing helps more than imitating native English speakers as they speak at their natural (and fast!) pace. I’ll help you speak fast English by breaking down a scene from the TV show Friends. We’ll look at every aspect of the conversation and I’ll show you exactly how to speak fast English like the characters in the show. It’s an awesome English lesson AND it’s a lot of fun!
00:00 Introduction
00:46 Full Scene
01:45 What's the matter?
04:01 We wanted to kiss at midnight
07:23 Buy nobody else is going to
09:40 So, you know.
10:12 Alright
11:07 I'll take care of it
13:30 Uh,no./Joey/Huh muh muh muh
14:07 Thirty-three, thirty-two, thirty-one!
15:45 Ross Listen
16:11 Who (are) you kissing at midnight?
17:57 Rachel or Phoebe?
19:43 What
19:57 Well, you got to kiss someone.
22:35 Can't kiss your sister.
24:06 Who going to kiss my sister?
25:14 Chandler
25:34 Oh man, really?
26:59 Du, dude.
26:49 Who would you rather kiss your sister, me or Chandler?
29:37 That's a good point
29:55 Uh, well
30:09 Since I have that whole history with Rachel
32:23 I guess Phoebe
33:24 OK, great.
33:41 Phoebs, Phoebs
33:57 Listen
35:17 Ross wants to kiss you at midnight
36:27 It's so obvious.
37:02 Why doesn't he just ask?
38:32 Rach, Rach
38:43 Listen
39:26 I'm going to kiss you at midnight.
41:25 What?
41:28 Well, everyone's got to kiss someone.
42:27 Can't kiss Ross, you got history.
43:46 So
44:23 So, who would you rather have kissing you?
45:17 Me or Chandler?
46:13 Oh, good point.
47:02 Yeah.
47:22 Three, two, one, Happy New Year!
47:58: Happy New Year.

Hello, I'm Turkish, the reason I came here is to improve my English. I'm in 7th grade and a channel recommended this channel to improve my English.
1 minute video clip, 50 minutes of studying. Amazing!
Thanks for watching Manny!
I Ku k
I'm learning English high school student in Japan 🇯🇵 This video is sooooo clear!!!
Thanks for your video XD.
i’m a native english speaker, in america, so you’d think i’d be used to listening to and understanding spoken english. nope! my audio processing is absolutely terrible but these videos have helped a lot in my understanding of people around me which is amazing. thank you so much!

Is that even hard for some native speakers? GOAD why are you guys doing this Americans, just to make people suffer? 😭
@@macsungminson3583 A native speaker should be able to understand other natives. I understand everything in the eposide and I am a native spearker:)
I love the clip you choose, getting me into a different culture. Not just an English lesson.
Thanks for watching 蕭智遠!
I’m Japanese, so I am not good at speaking English like native speaker. But I found this video today, and I can now study how to speak fast.
I’m so excited!
Glad to hear that こっぱ!
😊
I've been studying English for years and Rachel is simply the best teacher ever!!! This kind of analysis is absolutely perfect to learn and practice! Thank you, Rachel!!!!
You're welcome Joadson!
Hi Javadson, I am also learning a language and I can not learn Persian and I can understand what Ms. Rachel says and what she teaches. I am Persian. How do you understand? I am not English. I used a translator for this text.
@@rachelsenglish: After listening several times! I noticed you also don't say the T in ''meeting,'' and if you knew me personally, I wouldn't say the t in don't no matter the stressful syllable rules. It's like a natural instinct for me too. I think this is for other people also. Usually, Americans are more emotional than other native speakers I've had the chance to talk with. And this stress in the syllable comes from the emotions when you 'talk' rather than learning from a video presentation. The feelings during the situation you experience at the moment... is the tricky part. The other thing is that daily routine in America is very stressful, and stress plays a huge role if you want to speak like this.
RM said he learned English with this sitcom and now he's fluent .he can speak British and American both of accent.i really love his accent 💜
Who is RM?
@@__plnjvp8199 RM is the leader of BTS also know by Kim Namjoon.
I'm sending my appreciation from China. There is so much that I learnt from your detailed breaking down. Thank you so much teacher!
Hello there Zhu and thanks for watching! :)
I forgot this is a class when the serie was running because I can understand them, so I was enjoining Friends. Almost two years ago someone talk to me about your channel and I thought it was imposible to get what they say they're speaking faster and making lots of reductions and now I can get what they talking about. I already know they just talking normal with common reductions not faster. Thank you Rachel your classes are so useful.

Pliz keep making videos with Friends. I love the show and I love the way of your teaching. Thank you!!
Thank you, I will!
I used to stuck with understand what are they talking until i find your videos clarifying how they speak so fast and how they change word pronunciation differently like that. You're great teacher, thanks a lot!
I’m a native English speaker and find this video very interesting.
Thanks Dawn!
4 million of subscribers is around the corner. Congratulations! You deserve it!
I understood every word, the first time through. M'erica!
I never realized how much slang we use in common American English.
I like the way to speak English fluently.
Thanks!
I am really gratefull because with this chance i can improve my speaking english
Happy to hear that Aris!
In Indonesia, teachers of English and all people here speak English with strong forms only, most weak forms being unknown to us. In reality, native speakers of English speak English with weak forms, most of which contain the schwa. Link-ups, elision, assimilation, stress patterns, intonation patterns, pitch, juncture....all are employed in native speakers everyday's speech sounds. Many non-native speakers do not know this and, if they already know, they do not practise all these pronunciation features (=segmental and suprasegmental phonemes) when they are talking in English. This makes English of non-native speakers different from that of native speakers.
I just wanted to tell you that I l’ve learnt to listen well by you.. please keep posting like this video..
The close analysis of this scene really brought out the comedy of the repeated 'who would you rather' bit. Thanks for the video.

I'm British (native English speaker) and there are a lot of American sitcoms I can't watch because they speak so fast I can't understand them at all. Friends was easier to follow because the actors pause between lines.
I have reviewed your lesson for many times, when I was eating and was sleeping. It's strongly useful for me. And regconise the reasons why the American speak so fast........ I hope you will publish reality and knowledgeable videos. Thanks so much for free
You're very welcome and thanks for sharing Hiếu!
I've been studying English since last year and you're helping me so much! I'm really thankful 🥰 I learn so much about pronunciation with you!
Happy to hear that Maria! Keep it up!
Please keep doing that lessons with series 🙂
Thanks for your precious advice! @Só Origen
While I am doing this exercise out loud I am laughing 😂😂when your parents don't understand English and you are saying out loud word of kissing a hundred times,🤣even it's just exercise it made me to laugh, thank u I've improved my pronunciation one more time🔥🤗
You're very welcome Zhanerke!

@@pepsiandpenaldo76 yep
@@zhanerkezeilbekova5647 so yeap, I'm the one who learns English in my family, and when I try to say something in english at home, sometimes I feel kinda weird bc i know they absolutely don't understand it at all:) except if i'd use the f-word probably,
@@zhanerkezeilbekova5647 Can we talk in English if you don't mind. Nowadays I'm searching learner who speaks English like me. If we organize the Conversation, that'll help to Improve our speaking. If u read this message, don't forget to answer. I'll wait🤗
This is perfect method to learn English, thank you so much ma'am!, America has a greatest Rachel teacher. America peoples very lucky!
"You wil be transformed". Never before have I heard this line with not even an ounce of cynicism. Hope you're having a merry Christmas Rachel!
Merry Christmas Trinh!
Perfect exercise to study American pronunciation! I love it! Thanks Rachel ☺️
I can't think of the right words with which to express my thanks for this lovely lesson
Thanks Aalamshah!
@@rachelsenglish u r welcm regarded mam
You're just so perfect. Thanks a lot for such a great lesson.
Thank you so much from VietNam 🥺 You're the greatest English teacher that i've ever had
Hello there Huyền and thanks for watching!
You remind me a teacher I had when studying English a few years ago, very fluently and cool.
Thanks Cesar!
I'm American and I've never thought about how much we don't say even though we write it. It's mind boggling for me. I'm sorry to anyone trying to learn our language. haha
For real... I actually predict everytime, if someone I meet uses very clear and recognizable English, s/he's not a native speaker and it's been right most of time. While Americans don't even notice they speak differently.
@@macsungminson3583 We're very self absorbed. Not that most don't care about others or are good, nice people. It's just that the US is so big it's had for us to conceptualize anything else especially because most of us never leave the country. We vacation... in our own country.
@@Otterice that's not completely wrong but I think it's just the American English as a dialect itself allows a lot of loose pronouncing.
It is indeed so very damn hard
The best way to learn English.THANK YOU so much
You're very welcome!
thank you . This video very usefull. I am still learning in English . I will watch your video.
Amazing as usual, Rachel! Love your videos!!! Thank you sooooo much!!!!!
I grew happy to this channel.
Great! Thanks for watching Muhammed!
Loving the way of your English teaching. It's fantastic. Love you Mrs.Rachel from Sri Lanka. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️You do this best
this video entirely changed my concept of English.oh my. I wish I could’ve seen it 20years ago. As you know Chinese is a syllable timed language,we must speak each character clearly and no drops. Otherwise we will be criticized by elder generation. So when we come to English we still read words one by one .try our best to speak every syllable out loud. Now look backwards,How stupid we are! When listening become a barrier, no wander you can speak well, so that the whole process of English learning collapsed.that’s why Chinese people had to study English until we finish the formal academic education,but minority of us can speak it well after graduation. This time I will restart to learn English.Thank you so much you encouraged me a lot.
You're welcome and thanks for sharing!
I love this kind of video. It's my favorite one to learn how americans really speak. Thanks
I always look up to you. You teaching method is different than other. Thank you so much teacher. I am from Bangladesh.

Great way to learn. 90% of my english learned this way from “Friends”.
Awesome!
Rachel😊 Thank you so much for the detailed analysis. Your videos are extremely valuable😊
You're welcome and thanks for sharing Regina!
The 1 million question is: Why do some students consider this important and most don't? I, for one, cherish this kind of exercise.
You are a great teacher, thanks for your teaching

It was fun to watch you explained how Americans speak so fast with friends. I gather we also speak fast with our friends by means of our languages though we are not Americans. You are so good at teaching American English for foreigners just like me.
Rachel you're a great teacher
Congratulations from Vincenzo Apa

I have known Rachel s English pronpronunciation videos for a long time and ı watch these videos as much as ı can. But ı try to learn something and repeat these sentences that ı learned my
neighbors are surprised.
Awesome Cihan! Keep it up!
Era una genia!!! Que bien explicas!!! Muchas muchas gracias!!!!
Te saludo desde Mendoza, Argentina. Les deseo que pasen unas felices fiestas junto a sus seres queridos y el próximo año esté lleno de éxitos.
thankyou a lot rachel i enjoy studying english by watching your video.....
No one can speak faster than T Rachel's
Best series in winters
I hadn't even realized how fast I talk (I am american too) and when I watched my youtube video I thought damn why am I am talking so fast?!!!
One draw back in American English I'm discovering now I'm entering my 60's is you occasionally forget how a word is spelled, and if you try to sound it out your going to get it wrong. I can't think of a word at the moment to use as an example. Say a word is spelled with an AR but we pronoun it like an ER.
Yeah and that's magnified if you're hearing impaired lol.
I literally learned to speak that way by watching Friends.
Thank you so much 🥰 love you and your videos so much❤️
That was interesting.Thank you.Please more videos like this one)
I really love this kind of studying
I wanna know more this lesson like this one. Useful knowledge, thanks

This was so useful! Thx
Finally this analysis came back!! I have waited for it so long since last video. I normally watch your video without a notebook and pen, but when Ben Franklin comes out, I put all my tools together and watch it. Should I wait for new year of 2023 again to see such these videos? :( lol thanks always.
That's great Sonya! Thanks for watching! :)

Thanks for watching!
You are amazing Rachel. Keep it up!

appreciated for your hard work.
I enjoy learning when you describe fluency in US English like this.
I know it is so difficult to prepare a clip and play the parts many times and explain every word with it's sound and pronunciation.
it's very useful,particular and effective way for learning accent and expressions too.
thanks.
You're very welcome Elia and thanks for sharing!
My self taught method has been beginning with news shows and documentaries to get the ear accustomed and then, and only then, trying with music (ballads) and movie dramas. Going always from slow to fast.
48:31 You forgot the last couple !!! 😊 With Joey’s punchline. 😂👍
Hi Rachel, I've been talking always you are great teacher all the time this video is so awesome because friend sitcom is my favorite show I watch all the time and I learn pronunciation linking in this show however, i learned everything in this video. Thanks
