1:14something you'd like, be sure to try out
1:17our method. You only need a few minutes
1:19a day to see your real progress. Now,
1:21let's watch the first scene with
1:23subtitles in English before we learn the
1:25advanced words.
1:33>> [music]
1:33[bell]
1:34>> Look, Simba.
1:36Everything the light touches is our
1:38kingdom.
1:40>> Wow.
1:41>> A king's time as ruler rises and falls
1:45like the sun.
1:46One day, Simba,
1:48the sun will set on my time here
1:51and will rise with you as the new king.
1:54>> And this will all be mine?
1:55>> Everything.
1:57>> Everything the light touches.
2:00What about that shadowy place?
2:02>> That's beyond our borders. You must
2:04never go there, Simba.
2:05>> But I thought a king can do whatever he
2:07wants.
2:08>> Oh, there's more to being king than
2:09getting your way all the time.
2:11>> There's more?
2:13>> Simba.
2:17Everything you see exists together
2:20>> [music]
2:20>> in a delicate balance. As king, you need
2:23to understand that balance and respect
2:25all the creatures from the crawling ant
2:28to the leaping antelope.
2:29>> Dad, don't we eat the antelope?
2:31>> Yes, Simba, but let me explain.
2:34When we die, our bodies become the grass
2:37and the antelope eat the grass.
2:40And so,
2:41we are all connected in the great circle
2:44of life.
2:50>> Let's [music] go back to the beginning
2:51of the scene. Mufasa is preparing young
2:54Simba for the day he'll become king. One
2:57of the things that makes Mufasa so
2:58memorable is the way he speaks. His
3:01words are full of important life lessons
3:04and often metaphors.
3:06>> Everything the light touches is our
3:08kingdom.
3:10>> Wow.
3:10>> [snorts]
3:12>> A king's time as ruler rises and falls
3:15[music] like the sun.
3:17>> A ruler is someone who governs or leads
3:19a country or kingdom like a king, queen,
3:22or president.
3:23>> [music]
3:23>> As a verb, to rule actually means the
3:26same as to lead.
3:28>> Men like you, men like me, WE SHOULD BE
3:32RULING THE WORLD!
3:34>> AND AS SLANG, we often say something
3:37rules, meaning it is cool or the best.
3:40>> YOU GOT THE BEST VOICE!
3:41>> MAN, CORD! YOU RULE!
3:43>> A king's time as ruler rises and [music]
3:46falls like the sun.
3:48>> This kind of comparison Mufasa's making
3:51is called a metaphor. [music] For
3:53example, when we say life is a journey,
3:55this metaphor implies that life has
3:57different stages, challenges, and
4:01[music] experiences. And so he
4:02continues.
4:04>> One day, Simba,
4:05the sun will set on my time here
4:08and will rise with you [music] as the
4:10new king.
4:11>> This is a poetic phrase you may actually
4:13hear in other situations. For example,
4:16the sun has set on the age of DVDs. In
4:19other words, that period is over.
4:22>> And this will all be mine?
4:23>> Everything.
4:25>> Everything the light touches.
4:28What about that shadowy place?
4:30>> Shadowy means dark, full of shadows. In
4:34English, we often add y to noun to make
4:37an adjective that means full of that
4:39thing. We hear this pattern all the
4:42time. Cloud, cloudy, like a cloudy day.
4:45Mess, messy, [music]
4:47you could say a messy person. Noise,
4:50noisy, a noisy street. Mufasa then
4:54teaches Simba an important lesson about
4:56being a leader.
4:57>> But I thought a king can do whatever he
4:59wants.
4:59>> Oh, there's more to being king than
5:01getting your way all the time.
5:03>> Getting your way means getting what you
5:06want, having things happen the way you
5:08want them to. This is a common everyday
5:10phrase a natives use a lot. Check it
5:13out.
5:15>> I'm having [music] a great great day.
5:18It's about time that I get my way. Still
5:21roaming whatever I see.
5:24>> Mufasa is reminding Simba that to be a
5:26good king, sometimes you have to make
5:28difficult decisions for everyone else,
5:30not just for yourself. So he continues
5:33explaining.
5:34>> Everything you see exists together
5:37[music] in a delicate balance.
5:39>> Delicate means something that can be
5:41easily damaged, disturbed, or changed.
5:44Here, a delicate balance means
5:46everything in nature depends on
5:48everything else. If one part changes,
5:50the whole balance can be disturbed. We
5:53also use delicate in many other
5:55situations. A delicate situation needs
5:57to be handled carefully. A delicate
6:00fabric tears easily.
6:02A delicate flavor is light and subtle,
6:05not too strong. And pay attention to the
6:07pronunciation. You should say delicate,
6:10not delicate, but delicate. delicate
6:15Now, did you know when you practice the
6:17pronunciation of expressions on the
6:19RealLife app, just like you did here,
6:22you actually receive immediate feedback?
6:25It's a much more effective way to
6:27improve your English because you get
6:29practice and you're guided, so you're
6:32not just learning passively. Click the
6:34link in the description below to give it
6:36a try today. And in one of Mufasa's next
6:39line, he uses a grammar pattern that'll
6:41make your English sound much more
6:43natural. Look at these two words.
6:46>> As king, you need to understand that
6:48balance and respect all the creatures,
6:50from the crawling ant to the leaping
6:53antelope.
6:54>> First, let's understand these words. To
6:56crawl means to move close to the ground
6:58like a baby before it learns to walk.
7:01[music] To leap means to make a big,
7:03powerful jump. Now, the grammar pattern
7:06here is that instead of saying the ant
7:09that crawls or the antelope that leaps,
7:12Mufasa simply says the crawling ant
7:14>> [music]
7:15>> and the leaping antelope.
7:16>> [snorts]
7:17>> In English, we often put the ing form of
7:19a verb before a noun to describe what it
7:22does. For example, a missing person,
7:25a sleeping volcano, a volcano that's not
7:29active, [music]
7:30a growing city, a guiding light. It's a
7:33really common pattern and it makes your
7:35English sound much more natural. So,
7:38Mufasa has just taught Simba one of the
7:40most important lessons about [music]
7:42being king. But that lesson is about to
7:45be interrupted because Zazu, the royal
7:47adviser, has just arrived with his
7:49morning report. Let's watch our next
7:52scene.
7:57>> Good morning, sire.
7:59>> Good morning, Zazu.
8:00>> Checking in with the morning report.
8:02>> Fire away.
8:03>> Well, the buzz from the bees is that the
8:05leopards are in a bit of a spot.
8:07>> Oh, really?
8:07>> The baboons are going
8:09>> What are you doing, son?
8:10>> The giraffes are acting like
8:11>> Pouncing.
8:12>> That's an all pro show, young master.
8:14>> I told the elephants to forget it, but
8:16they can't
8:17>> Zazu, would you turn around?
8:19>> The cheetahs are hard up.
8:21>> Stay low to the ground.
8:22>> Cheetahs never prosper.
8:24>> Okay, stay low to the ground. Right,
8:25yeah.
8:26>> What's going on?
8:26>> A pouncing lesson.
8:27>> Oh, very good. Pouncing.
8:29Pouncing? Oh, no, sire. You can't be
8:32serious. Oh.
8:34This is so humiliating.
8:36>> Try not to make a sound.
8:37>> What are you telling him, Mufasa?
8:40Mufasa?
8:42Simba?
8:44>> [laughter]
8:47>> That's very good.
8:49>> Zazu.
8:49>> Yes.
8:49>> Sire, news from the underground.
8:51>> Now,
8:52this time
8:53>> Sire,
8:54HYENAS IN THE PRIDE LANDS.
8:56>> ZAZU, take Simba home.
8:58>> Oh, dad, can't I come?
8:59>> No, son.
9:02>> I never get to go anywhere.
9:03>> Oh, young master, one day you will be
9:06king. Then you can chase those
9:09slobbering mangy stupid poachers from
9:12dawn until dusk.
9:19Good morning, sire.
9:20>> Sire is a very formal way to address a
9:22king, similar to saying your majesty.
9:24You'll hear it in historical movies and
9:26fantasy stories. In everyday English,
9:29though, nobody calls someone sire. Now,
9:32Zazu's job is to keep Mufasa informed
9:34about everything happening in the pride
9:36lands.
9:37By the way, do you know why they are
9:39called the Pridelands? A pride is
9:42actually what we call a group of lions.
9:44There is a lot of wordplay related to
9:46animals in this movie. We'll look at
9:48some of more in just a little bit. Now,
9:50listen to this expression Zazu uses.
9:53>> Checking in with the morning report.
9:55>> To check in means to contact someone to
9:58give or receive an update. For example,
10:01just checking in to see how you're
10:03doing. My boss checks in every morning.
10:06Or this other example from the movie Big
10:08Hero.
10:09>> We just wanted to check in and see how
10:11you're doing.
10:12>> Zazu is checking in with Mufasa to tell
10:14him what's been happening around the
10:16Pridelands. Listen to how Mufasa
10:18responds.
10:19>> Good morning, Zazu.
10:21>> Checking in with the morning report.
10:23>> Fire away.
10:24>> Fire away means to go ahead or start
10:26talking. It's like giving someone
10:28permission to begin, usually to speak,
10:30ask questions, or share information.
10:33>> If you have any questions, just fire
10:34away.
10:35>> Well, the buzz from the bees is that the
10:37leopards are in a bit of a spot.
10:39>> Buzz literally means the sound bees and
10:42some other insects make, like this.
10:46But the informal way Zazu used the word
10:48here, buzz from the bees, can also mean
10:51news or gossip circulating in a group.
10:54>> [music]
10:54>> Check out this other example.
10:55>> Lottie, the buzz about your event is
10:58circulating like wildfire.
11:00>> So, the news is that leopards are in a
11:02bit of a spot. This means in a difficult
11:05or problematic situation. Natives have
11:08many other informal ways to say this,
11:10like in [music] a tight spot, in
11:12trouble, in a pickle, or in a sticky
11:14situation. They all mean someone's
11:17dealing with a problem. However, [music]
11:19this is also a funny choice of an
11:20expression because a leopard has spots.
11:25As Zazu loves these little animal puns,
11:27he also says,
11:28>> I told the elephants to forget it, but
11:30they can't.
11:31>> And this plays with the idea that
11:33elephants have great memory. They never
11:35forget. He also says,
11:38>> Cheaters never prosper.
11:39>> Which is a play on the famous saying,
11:41"Cheaters never prosper."
11:44While they're talking, Simba couldn't
11:45care less. He's spotted a grasshopper.
11:48>> What are you doing, son?
11:50>> [clears throat]
11:50>> Pouncing.
11:51>> To pounce means to jump on something
11:53suddenly and with force, like a cat
11:56catching its prey. [music] Simba is
11:58practicing this essential skill.
12:00Then a gopher shows up with his own news
12:03update. A gopher is this animal that
12:05looks very similar to a groundhog.
12:08>> Yes, sir. News from the underground.
12:10>> Underground literally means below the
12:12surface of the earth, like for example a
12:14subway system.
12:15British people even say they take the
12:17underground to refer to taking the
12:20subway.
12:20>> [music]
12:20>> But underground also has a common
12:22informal meaning referring to activity
12:24that happens away from the public view.
12:27Like an underground music scene refers
12:29to artists who don't receive attention
12:31from TV, radio, etc. And underground
12:35news means information from hidden or
12:37secret sources. [music]
12:39So the hyenas have appeared in the Pride
12:41Lands, and Mufasa leaves to deal with
12:43them. Simba is not happy about being
12:45left behind, but Zazu tries to comfort
12:48him by saying this.
12:50>> I never get to go anywhere.
12:52>> Oh, young master, one day you will be
12:55king. Then you can chase those
12:57slobbering, mangy, stupid poachers from
13:00dawn until dusk.
13:02>> That's one long phrase to describe the
13:04hyenas. Let's break it down. Slobbering
13:07means a drooling excessively, that is
13:10letting saliva drip from the mouth.
13:12Mangy means dirty and in poor condition,
13:15like a mangy coat. But in this case it's
13:17literally referring to mange, a common
13:20skin disease animals suffer from.
13:23And a poacher is someone who hunts
13:24animals illegally. So remember that
13:27shadowy place Mufasa warned Simba about?
13:30Well, Simba actually went there anyway
13:33with his friend Nala and got them both
13:36nearly killed by hyenas. Mufasa had to
13:39rescue them and now he has something to
13:42say about it. Let's watch our third and
13:44final scene.
13:50>> [music]
13:52>> Simba, I'm very disappointed in you.
13:54>> I know.
13:55>> You could have been killed. You
13:56deliberately disobeyed me and what's
13:58worse, you put Nala in danger.
14:01>> [panting]
14:02>> I was just trying to be brave like you.
14:05>> I'm only brave when I have to be.
14:08Simba,
14:10being brave
14:12doesn't mean you go looking for trouble.
14:14>> But you're not scared of anything.
14:18>> I was today.
14:19>> You were?
14:20>> Yes.
14:21I thought [music] I might lose you.
14:23>> Oh.
14:25I guess even kings get scared, huh?
14:27>> Mhm.
14:29>> But you know what?
14:30>> What?
14:31>> I think those hyenas were even scareder.
14:35>> [laughter]
14:35>> Cuz nobody messes with your dad. Come
14:39here, you.
14:39>> Oh, no, no.
14:44Come here.
14:47Got you.
14:50>> [music]
14:53>> Dad?
14:54>> Mhm.
14:55>> We're pals, right?
14:57>> Right.
14:58>> And we'll always be together, right?
15:02>> Simba,
15:03let me tell you something that my father
15:05told me.
15:08Look at the stars.
15:10The great kings of the past look down on
15:13us from those stars.
15:15>> Really?
15:16>> Yes.
15:17So, whenever you feel alone,
15:20just remember that those kings will
15:22always be there to guide you.
15:26And so will I.
15:33>> At the beginning of this scene, Mufasa
15:35is upset with Simba and he goes straight
15:38to the point. Listen to the expression
15:40he uses.
15:41>> Simba, I'm very disappointed in you.
15:43[music]
15:43>> Notice the preposition in. You are
15:45disappointed in somebody. See this other
15:48example.
15:49>> Failing in and out of the ring,
15:52the whole Sanchez family would be so
15:54disappointed in you.
15:56>> Simba, I'm very disappointed [music] in
15:58you.
15:58>> I know.
15:59>> You could have been killed. You
16:00deliberately disobeyed me.
16:02>> Deliberate means intentional, done on
16:05purpose, not by accident. Mufasa is
16:08saying Simba didn't accidentally go to
16:10the shadowy place. He knew he wasn't
16:12allowed to go there and still chose
16:15[music] to disobey his father
16:17deliberately. So, Simba explains what he
16:19was doing.
16:20>> I was just trying to be brave like you.
16:23>> I'm only brave when I have to be.
16:26Simba,
16:28being brave
16:30doesn't mean you go looking for trouble.
16:33>> Looking for trouble means putting
16:35yourself in dangerous or problematic
16:37situations. It's different from
16:39accidentally getting into trouble. Simba
16:41was actively, deliberately looking for
16:43trouble. So, after Mufasa admits he was
16:46scared of losing Simba, Simba realizes
16:49even kings get scared and says something
16:52grammatically incorrect but really
16:54adorable.
16:55>> I think those hyenas were even scareder.
16:59>> Scareder is not correct English. The
17:02proper word would be more scared. But,
17:05Simba is a child and kids often make
17:07this mistake with irregular
17:09comparatives. They hear words like
17:12bigger, faster, louder and apply the
17:14same rule to everything including words
17:18where it doesn't [music] work. In this
17:20case, with longer adjectives like scared
17:23or intense, you should simply say more
17:25scared or more intense.
17:28>> I think those hyenas were even scareder.
17:30[music]
17:31>> [laughter]
17:32>> Cuz nobody messes with your dad. Come
17:36here, you.
17:37>> To mess with someone means to bother,
17:39challenge, or provoke them. It's often
17:42used to mean there will be consequences
17:44if you do [music] mess with like saying,
17:47"Nobody messes with my family."
17:50>> Nobody messes with my family.
17:52Dad?
17:53>> Mhm.
17:54>> We're pals, right?
17:56>> Right.
17:57>> And we'll always be together, right?
17:59>> A pal is an informal way to say close
18:02[music] friend. Such a sweet moment
18:04here. Simba wants to make sure they'll
18:06always be together, but we already know
18:09from earlier in the lesson that Mufasa
18:11is slowly preparing Simba for the day
18:14when he won't be around anymore. And
18:16that's when Mufasa points to the stars
18:19and tells him this.
18:21>> Simba,
18:22let me tell you something that my father
18:24told me.
18:27Look at the stars.
18:29The great kings of the past look down on
18:32us from those stars.
18:34>> To look down on someone here means being
18:37above, watching over, and protecting
18:40them. But just so you know, look down on
18:43someone also has another meaning, not
18:45the one from the scene.
18:46>> [snorts]
18:46>> It means to consider yourself superior
18:49to someone, to treat them as less
18:51important or inferior.
18:53>> They're never going to respect me. They
18:55just look down on me.
18:56>> In this scene, however, Mufasa is saying
18:59the great kings from the past are these
19:01stars looking down on them, watching
19:04over and protecting them. And without
19:06Simba realizing it, Mufasa is also
19:09preparing him for something because soon
19:12Mufasa himself will become one of those
19:14stars
19:15>> [music]
19:15>> watching over his son.
19:18But we're not done with the lesson yet.
19:21Now we'll move on to the most important
19:22step. You're going to test everything
19:25you've just learned by watching the
19:26clips again this time without subtitles
19:29and answering some quiz questions. Let's
19:31leap right in.
19:37>> [music]
19:40>> Look, Simba.
19:42Everything [music] the light touches
19:44is our kingdom.
19:46>> Wow.
19:48>> A king's time as ruler rises and [music]
19:50falls like the sun.
19:52One day, Simba,
19:54the sun will set on my time here
19:57and will rise with you as the new king.
20:00>> And this will all be mine?
20:01>> Everything.
20:03>> Everything the light touches.
20:06What about that shadowy place?
20:08>> That's beyond our borders. You must
20:10never go there, Simba.
20:12>> But I thought a king can do whatever he
20:13wants.
20:14>> Oh, there's more to being king than
20:16getting your way all the time.
20:17>> There's more?
20:19>> Simba thinks being king means always
20:21getting his way. What does this
20:23expression mean?
20:24Doing things the right way,
20:26getting what you want, or finding a way
20:29to succeed.
20:38>> But, Simba,
20:43everything you see exists together in a
20:46delicate balance. As king, you need to
20:49understand that balance and respect all
20:51the creatures from the crawling ant to
20:54the leaping antelope.
20:55>> But, Dad, don't we eat the antelope?
20:57>> Yes, Simba, but let me explain.
21:00When we die, our bodies become [music]
21:02the grass, and the antelope eat the
21:04grass.
21:06And so,
21:07we are all [music] connected in the
21:09great circle of life.
21:11>> Good morning, sire.
21:12>> Good morning, Zazu.
21:13>> Checking in with the morning report.
21:15>> Fire away.
21:16>> What is Mufasa telling Zazu to do? Leave
21:19immediately, speak loudly, or go ahead
21:22and start.
21:31>> Well, the buzz from the bees is that the
21:34leopards are in a bit of a spot.
21:36>> The baboons are going ape.
21:38>> What are you doing, son?
21:39>> the gazelles are acting like
21:40>> Pouncing.
21:41>> That's not all you're supposed to do,
21:42young as done.
21:43>> I told the elephants to forget it, but
21:45they can't
21:46>> Zazu, would you turn around?
21:47>> Yes, sire. The cheetahs are hard up, but
21:49>> Stay low to the ground.
21:51>> Cheetahs never prosper.
21:53>> Okay, stay low to the ground, right.
21:54>> What's going on?
21:55>> A pouncing lesson.
21:56>> Oh, very good. Pouncing.
21:58Pouncing? Oh, no, sire, you can't be
22:00serious.
22:02This is so humiliating.
22:05>> Not to make a sound.
22:06>> What are you telling him, Mufasa?
22:09Mufasa?
22:10Simba?
22:13>> [laughter]
22:15>> That's very good.
22:17>> Zazu.
22:18>> Yes, sire. News from the underground.
22:20>> No.
22:21This time
22:21>> Sire,
22:22HYENAS IN THE PRIDE LANDS.
22:25>> ZAZU, take Simba home.
22:26>> Oh, Dad, can I come?
22:28>> No, son.
22:30>> I never get to go anywhere.
22:32>> Oh, young master, one day you will be
22:35king. Then you can chase those
22:38slobbering, mangy, stupid poachers from
22:40dawn until dusk.
22:43>> Simba, I'm very disappointed in you.
22:46>> I know.
22:47>> You could have been killed. You
22:48deliberately disobeyed me.
22:50>> What does deliberately mean?
22:51Accidentally, without thinking,
22:53secretly, without others knowing, or
22:56intentionally, on purpose.
23:06>> And what's worse, you put Nala in
23:08danger.
23:10>> I was just trying to be brave like you.
23:13>> I'm only brave when I have to be.
23:16Simba,
23:18being brave
23:20doesn't mean you go looking for trouble.
23:22>> But you're not scared of anything.
23:25>> I was today.
23:27>> You were?
23:27>> Yes.
23:29I thought I might lose you.
23:31>> Oh.
23:32>> [snorts]
23:33>> I guess even kings get scared, huh?
23:35>> Mhm.
23:37>> But you know what?
23:38>> What?
23:39>> I think those hyenas were even
23:41scared-er.
23:42>> [laughter]
23:43>> Cuz nobody [music] messes with your dad.
23:46>> Mufasa says, "And nobody messes with
23:48your dad." What does this tell us about
23:51him?
23:51No one wants to speak with Mufasa.
23:54Everyone respects and fears Mufasa. Or
23:57Mufasa doesn't allow anyone near him.
24:07>> Come here, you.
24:08>> Oh, no. No.
24:12Come here.
24:16Got you.
24:19>> [music]
24:22>> Dad?
24:23>> Mhm?
24:24>> We're pals, right?
24:25>> Right.
24:26>> And we'll always be together, right?
24:30>> Simba,
24:32let me tell you something that my father
24:34told me.
24:36Look at the stars.
24:38The great kings of the past look down on
24:42us from those stars.
24:44>> Really?
24:45>> Yes.
24:46So, whenever [music] you feel alone,
24:48just remember that those kings will
24:51always be there to guide you.
24:54And so will I.
