#LearnEnglish with Finding Nemo! 🐠🌊

Added: 2026-05-17

[00:00:00]Today, we're learning English with Finding Nemo. And I'm excited to teach you with my favorite scene from the movie where we can learn to speak whale.

[00:00:08]Dory, this is not whale. You're speaking like upset stomach.

[00:00:12]>> Maybe I should try humpback.

[00:00:13]>> try humpback.

[00:00:15]ALL RIGHT.

[00:00:16]YOU ACTUALLY SOUND SICK.

[00:00:17]>> MAYBE LOUDER, HUH?

[00:00:19]Don't do that.

[00:00:20]>> Too much orca. Didn't it sound a little orca-ish? A humpback whale is one of the most famous species. So, this isn't orca. The suffix story used is super native-ish.

[00:00:30]When you add -ish to the end of a word, it means kind of. It makes the word less exact. So, orca-ish means a bit like an orca. Are you hungry?

[00:00:40]Kind of. I'm a bit peckish. What time did you arrive? 11-ish. Was the movie good? It was okay-ish. You can add -ish to almost anything in casual conversation. It's one of those little words that immediately makes your English sound more natural and native.

[00:00:56]You try. Create an example down in the comments.
