	Today, we'll touch on a vital topic and learn essential and potentially life-saving English vocabulary.
	And it focuses on emergency room vocabulary, but it is not limited to use only in emergency rooms.
	These often include questions like, what is the reason for your visit today?
	There are also key vocabulary terms and phrases a patient can use to explain their problems and symptoms in an emergency room or ambulance setting.
	And first of all, I want to talk about one little word that people often use when talking about pain, and that is ache.
	So, when describing your pain, you can use the suffix ache.
	It is a handy way to talk about pain or discomfort in different parts of your body and is quite common in everyday language.
	You just attach it to a word that indicates where the pain is, meaning you should identify where it hurts.
	Is it the head, tooth, stomach, back, ear, etc.?
	Stomach ache or tummy ache, which is pain in your stomach or belly.
	One little note, stomach ache can be written as one word or two words.
	Some ache words are more common, like the ones we just mentioned, while others are used less often.
	Heartache, however, is more commonly used to talk about emotional pain, as in this example.
	Muscle ache would more likely refer to pain in your muscles, often from working out or overexertion.
	For example, after working out, I felt muscle ache all over.
	Using eight words helps you clearly talk about specific types of pain, which is super helpful when you're trying to explain how you feel and get some help.
	I am very excited to announce a brand new AI tool that also speak has just launched and which is made just for English learners.
	ELSA AI is a brand new feature of the ELSA Speak app, which lets you create your own role play and practice English conversations on any topic you like.
	You can practice with four preset scenarios, or you can create your own to mimic real life situations that come up in your own daily life.
	And what's even better is that ELSA will then give you an in-depth evaluation on how you performed after the conversation.
	So if you don't have the ELSA app already, you can click the link in the video description or pinned comment, or you can scan this QR code you can see on the screen to download ELSA for free.
	Okay, so here you have to improvise and just speak.
	Was there anything that you found challenging or anything that you particularly enjoyed?
	Well, I enjoyed that I didn't have to pay money for my latte.
	When describing your pain, try to specify the exact location where the pain is.
	Next, a doctor might ask you to describe or specify the type of pain.
	Burning, I feel a burning sensation in my throat.
	Stabbing, it feels like a knife is stabbing my side.
	For example, you can say the pain is mild, moderate, severe or unbearable.
	And your possible answers might be The pain started suddenly about an hour ago.
	Another question doctors love to ask is about the intensity of your pain.
	Pain can also radiate to different parts of your body, which is important information for your doctor.
	When talking about pain, to radiate means that the pain spreads from one part of the body to another.
	Another important detail worth mentioning to your doctor is the frequency of your pain, although they will most likely ask about this themselves.
	The pain can be constant and you can say something like the pain is constant and it doesn't go away.
	Or it can be intermittent and you can say something like the pain comes and goes every few minutes.
	Your doctor will also likely ask if you have other symptoms they should know about.
	If you can think of anything else you've been dealing with recently, you should mention it as it might be a very important piece of information for your doctor to give a correct diagnosis.
	And here's a list of other symptoms that one might experience and examples of their usage.
	I've been vomiting and having diarrhea for the last 24 hours.
	Additional questions from your doctor might be about what triggers and relieves your symptoms.
	They may ask you about medications you're currently taking, your allergies, medical conditions, recent procedures, and more.
	When talking about medications, you can say something like I'm taking and then name the name of medication or I take and the number of milligrams and the name of medication and frequency.
	Or I take 10 milligrams of lisinopril daily for high blood pressure.
	When talking about allergies, you can say something like I'm allergic to and name the substance.
	When talking about medical conditions, you can say I have and name the condition.
	For example, I have diabetes or I am diabetic and take insulin.
	I have high blood pressure or I have a history of asthma.
	And when talking about recent procedures, you can use the pattern you see on the screen and say something like I recently had knee surgery or I had surgery on my knee two weeks ago.
	And here's other important information you might need to provide along with patterns you might use and example sentences.
	When giving the emergency contact, you should be precise and specific.
	You can say something like, my emergency contact is, and then provide their name, your relationship to that person, and their phone number.
	For example, my emergency contact is John Doe, my husband.
	When giving your insurance information, you can say something like my insurance provider is and name the provider.
	And you can also ask for language assistance if you don't speak the language.
	And you can say something like I need an interpreter for Spanish or I speak Mandarin and I need assistance.
	I have a sharp stabbing pain in my left chest that started suddenly about an hour ago.
	You could also pause the video and read this out loud for some additional speaking practice.
	Situation number two, you have a severe allergic reaction.
	Situation number three, you have abdominal pain.
	I've been having dull cramping pain in my lower abdomen for the past two days.
	The pain gets worse when I eat or drink anything and slightly better when I lie down.
	The more accurately you can describe your symptoms, the better healthcare professionals can understand you and help you.
	By using these detailed terms and phrases, you'll be able to communicate your symptoms and the medical needs more effectively helping healthcare providers give you the best possible care.
	If that was the case, don't forget to give this video a like, subscribe to the channel if you haven't yet, and I'll see you in the next one.

	There's so many things we have access to these days to improve our speaking skills in English.
	But let's assume that for whatever reason, you can't do any of that.
	But you really want to be able to speak English or you really want to or need to improve your speaking skills.
	I have videos where I mention or talk about this way, but let me just briefly summarize it for you and remind you about how you can improve your speaking skills significantly all by yourself.
	But first, I want to get into a couple of the most effective exercises to work on your speaking, and then I'll tell you about that one best way to improve your speaking by yourself that I swear by.
	My number one go-to exercise that I recommend to everyone is shadowing.
	If you really make yourself do it regularly, I promise you will see amazing results.
	If you want to learn more about it, you can click the links in the description to watch the videos where I talk about it.
	Next, I recommend that you practice your speaking using my dialogue videos.
	Based on the feedback that I've got from you guys on those videos, I can proudly say that this method has helped a lot of you to improve your speaking.
	Another way is to find dialogues online and read them out loud.
	Oh, and before I forget to mention this, you need to speak out loud.
	I hope it's clear. because there's no chance of improving your speaking if you don't speak.
	These two exercises that I just suggested are easy but so effective.
	Search for IELTS speaking test questions or small talk questions, which by the way, will come in very handy.
	Now, let's get to the one very thing that you probably won't like, but you will need to do in order to really improve.
	You need this anyways, but especially because you're working on your own, and there's nobody to correct you.
	When you listen to yourself back, you can catch your mistakes that otherwise you wouldn't even notice you make, whether they are pronunciation or grammar mistakes, and you can correct them.
	I'm telling you this from my own experience making YouTube videos. you won't believe how many takes I needed to take at the beginning to say something right.
	I could completely butcher a word or the whole sentences or for whatever reason, I could drop some words from a sentence or my intonation was totally off and consequently, the message wasn't properly delivered.
	But when you listen to yourself back, You can catch all of that, analyze and correct.
	And the more you do this, the less you eventually need to do this.
	If you don't know what to talk about or find it difficult to structure your thoughts, you can start with dialogues.
	Or again, you can use my dialogue videos that are called Speak English With Me.
	So, you can use those already put together dialogues, you can record yourself reproducing the full dialogue, or you can simply answer me just like the video suggests.
	Another great way to improve your speaking by yourself is to use the app Elsa Speak.
