Can Watching Movies Help Improve My English? If Yes, How?

Movies are great sources of learning, including for improving your English. 

Even for people who don’t intentionally learn English, they can start to enrich their vocabulary and grammatical skill by watching many films.

Здравствуйте. Это седьмой эпизод подкаста «Глубинный народ», взгляд на культуру России из провинции.

Француз, живущий в польском Гданьске (бывшем немецком Данциге), обратил моё внимание на русское слово «вдохновение».

Слово это не исконно русское. Я нашёл «въдъхновение/дъхновение» в большом словаре раннего старославянского языка (смотрите иллюстрацию).

Цитата в словаре очень хороша: «доуша же его ввиде к богоу емоу же слоужи с дъхновениемъ и страхомъ.»

По мнению академика В. В. Виноградова, «Пушкин признал церковнославянский язык одной из живых стихий русского литературного языка.»

Как писал Н. В. Гоголь в статье 1846 года, «[Русский язык] может, живой, как жизнь, обогащаться ежеминутно, почерпая, с одной стороны, высокие слова из языка церковно-библейского, а с другой стороны, выбирая на выбор меткие названья из бесчисленных своих наречий…»

В этом знаменитом стихотворении Пушкина слово «вдохновение» играет важную роль:

Я помню чудное мгновенье:
Передо мной явилась ты,
Какъ мимолетное видѣнье,
Какъ генiй чистой красоты.

Въ томленьяхъ грусти безнадежной,
Въ тревогахъ шумной суеты,
Звучалъ мнѣ долго голосъ нѣжный
И снились милыя черты.

Шли годы. Бурь порывъ мятежный
Разсѣялъ прежнiя мечты,
И я забылъ твой голосъ нѣжный,
Твои небесныя черты.

Въ глуши, во мракѣ заточенья,
Тянулись тихо дни мои
Безъ божества, безъ вдохновенья,
Безъ слезъ, безъ жизни, безъ любви.

Душѣ настало пробужденье:
И вотъ опять явилась ты,
Какъ мимолетное видѣнье,
Какъ генiй чистой красоты.

И сердце бьется въ упоеньѣ
И для него воскресли вновь
И божество, и вдохновенье,
И жизнь, и слезы, и любовь.

Глубинный народ

Вдохновение

Once you can positively identify what your ultimate goal is, I want you to divide these goals into smaller goals or you can say this is the part where you lower your goals a little, and this is ok. It doesn’t make you a lesser human being. How many goals have been unfulfilled because the initial expectation was too high? Too many learners just give up completely. Lower your goal until you reach a base point which you can reach within 7 days. Once you have achieved this base point, work your way up to the next 7 days and then the 7 days further and so forth. You can have many of these lower goals or outpost goals, as I like to call them. These outposts will give an indication of your learning journey and whether it is feasible to continue on the same path. If something doesn’t work, modify it to suit the problems you face in your learning. Make sure you also modify your outpost based on how much time you are prepared to spend on your learning. Be realistic about it. If you are tired at the end of the day, do not schedule learning time at this time or at least try to cut down on learning at this hour. At the end of the day, you know your mental state better than anyone else.

Tip 47 - Set your ideal goal but also set the lowest goal that you can achieve within 7 days

Today's phrase is "to be rigged" which means something has been set up to operate in some kind of unfair way. 

Today's phrase is to be rigged. Now when something is rigged, it is believed that it's operated using some kind of dishonest behaviour to promote a desired outcome. Now, let me just give you some examples to show you what I mean:

So, if we say, for example, 

The job vacancy has been advertised in the newspaper but I believe it's been rigged. We all know who's going to win.

 The football match was definitely rigged. I don't think the football players were playing in their usual way today. 

The competition to win a holiday in the local newspaper has been won by an employee of that newspaper. That was definitely rigged.
