Or it's Apple counterpart face time to practice your spoken English with people from all around the world.

In this funny scene for modern family, you will see how clear uses face time to talk to her family.

You will also learn tons of vocabulary and expressions that natives use all the time.

We've divided the scene into three clips.

In the 1st 1 Claire, who is travelling, calls her husband, Phil, to check.

Everything is OK at the house.

In this second cliff, Claire starts to panic when she finds out that Haley, one of her daughters, is missing.

The third clip shows the funny conclusion to the scene, so stay tuned until the end for some laughs.

If you're new here, you will first watch each cliff with subtitles in English.

Then we will teach you all the most important vocabulary, pronunciation and cultural context before moving on to the next clip.

Finally, you will test everything you learn by watching all the clips without subtitles and answering some quiz questions.

What's the best first person shooter about genetically modified space?

Marines, Halo Honey, have you been playing your new little video game all day?

I can't get in touch with Haley.

I haven't talked since we got in that fight.

She around?

I think she slept at a friend's house.

A friend?

Um oh.

Maybe Alex knows.

Is she home?

Nope.

I have not seen her for hours.

Does Haley know on Arjun?

Barge.

I'm on.

Hi, honey.

Were you?

I'm in the kitchen, Alex, when you get home.

I've been here all day.

Honey, when I'm not home, I need you to be present and keep track of everyone.

Feels good.

I love you too, Alex Jr.

Where Haley is.

What's the best first person shooter about genetically modified space?

Marines?

Halo, A first person shooter is a type of action game where the players shoots a weapon.

It's called first person because you see the action from the player's perspective, as opposed to 1/3 person shooter, which you control from a different view angle.

Phil is playing the popular game Halo.

Some of the characters in this game are Marines, which our soldiers in the United States Army that serve on Navy ships.

Food uses this question as a humorous way to answer the phone because Halo sounds like Hello.

Claire is not happy to see that Phil is playing video games when he should be looking after the kids and the house.

You can notice this in her tone of voice and in her use of the word little honey, have you been playing your new little video game all day?

Sometimes we say little to communicate that we dislike something.

You are so lucky that I have to go to work today or I would show you scary.

I would win your little contest.

You don't know what you're up against.

Also, she calls her husband, Honey, this is a common way to address each other in a romantic relationship.

It is, however, not so common among younger people.

Can't get in touch with Haley.

I haven't talked since we got in that fight.

There are three different ways you can use this verb to be in touch, to keep in touch and to get in touch.

If you are in touch with someone, it means that you speak or write to someone example.

We haven't seen each other in three years, but we're still in touch through Facebook we can also use keep in touch here, as in, I still keep in touch with her.

When youse keep instead of B, it implies an effort to not lose the habit of communication or fall out of touch.

To get in touch means to speak or write with someone, especially after you haven't spoken to them for a long time.

He's talking a London.

My God, did you get in touch with him?

Lee.

No, I'm not yet.

He's calling everyone on her side of the family, hoping that someone will help get in touch with Clear.

And Haley got into a fight over household chores, specifically doing the dishes.

I asked you to clean up the kitchen nine hours ago.

When I left for work, I come back and it's the exact same ET plus pickles and peanut butter.

Yes, I could see that, Honey, you left it in this thing.

By the way, that's a funny response from player considering one of the things Haley refused to do is clean up the kitchen because she had a lot on her plate.

She's using an idiom here to have a lot on one's plate, which means to be very busy, clear, makes a play on words and says, Yeah, you left them in the kitchen.

I can't get in touch with Haley.

I haven't talked since we got in that fight.

She around.

If you ask you, someone is around.

You want to know if they're in the same places you or where the person you are asking ISS In this case, Claire wants to know if she's at home.

In her question.

She's around, she admits.

The is as it's informal communication.

Hey, isn't modern family funny?

Well, how would you like to be able to understand all the jokes and laugh while you're learning English?

What with food with friends Court?

That's exactly what you'll do with weak the lessons for 48 weeks, and you can try it for free.

Right now, you just have to sign up for our three part master class, and you could do that by clean up here or down in the description.

Pull up Alex when you get home.

Did you notice that Phil here doesn't say When did you get home, but rather a shortened Alex when you get home?

When did is before you some speakers sometimes will turn it into a just sound.

Let's see other instances of reductions with did fiance.

Would you start working here?

Where'd you get all this week?

Furniture.

In other cases, when it's not before you or awards starting with why you could hear did simply reduce to eight sound huge.

Where'd that come from?

Hey, guys.

What?

I miss what I missed.

Honey, When I'm not home, I need you to be present and keep track of everyone.

She asked him to be present, which in this case means to be involved to accompany other people and focus on their needs.

You don't want to lose her.

You gotta try a little harder.

Be more attentive to where she is emotionally.

Just be present.

Yes, totally.

You just do me a favor and call your sister here.

She's screening.

I'm not making the cut.

Why don't you just snoop on her Facebook page with your fake profile?

I don't have a fake profile, Mom.

Save it.

Brody.

Kendall just logged in That truck.

Might have worked on Haley, but I know that's a picture of Chachi.

Oh, my God.

What?

Please tell me that some kind of mistake.

Where?

Which paragraph it gives your father now.

Dad, Mom needs Theo in the shower.

Oh, hey, Mrs de Hey, De la No harm Mr D You with Haley?

In what way?

Physically romantically, Mer, Italy.

No, I'm at work.

I have a career now.

Hey, can you hold this phone for a second?

So you have no idea where Haley is right now.

You mean spiritually?

Geographically.

Can you please stop spending that time?

No.

My bosses.

If I do, he'll replace me with one of those guys.

Go back to where you came from.

I used to be a favor and call your sister here.

She's screaming.

I'm not making the cut.

To screen your calls is to check who is calling, either by letting go to voicemail or through caller I.

D.

Example.

I make sure to screen all of my calls to avoid talking to telemarketers.

If you make the cut, you're selected for something.

Time before that, he was making a list of who's allowed in his tree Fort if he ever gets one, I still can't believe I did make the cut example.

There's a lot of competition for this job.

I'm not sure if I could make the cut.

So what Alex means, basically, is that it?

Hayley is intentionally not answering calls from Claire.

She probably also won't answer her calls.

Do you want to understand that speaking natives well, every week we help you to do it without getting lost without missing the jokes and without self titles, just like my we said that our lessons helped her to get serious about learning English and take her fluency to the next level.

And you can, too.

All you have to do.

Is it that Subscribe one and the Beldam Low.

You don't miss any of our new lessons.

Why don't you just snoop on her Facebook page with your fake profile?

Two sneu means to look for private information about someone or something, much like dogs.

Snoop around to find a bone, for example.

Pay attention to the propositions that this takes Barney's taking her toe.

Why Lily snoop through her stuff?

She snooped on my phone Red summer might e mails that's not cool emails or private.

So the first time I leave you alone used snoop on me.

You've never snooped around my apartment.

No.

Come on, think back.

It would really help.

If you have.

I don't have a fake profile, Mom, Save it.

Brody Kendall just logged in.

When we say Save it, we tell someone to stop talking, because what they'll say is not needed or wanted sometimes even because we know they're lying.

In this case, she doesn't need to pretend she doesn't have a fake Facebook account to snoop on Haley because Alex already knows that's not true.

A similar expression is to save someone the trouble.

I'm going into the city just well, I'm gone.

Don't go snooping around in our stuff.

I know you think we have a sex tape hidden somewhere, so I'll save you the trouble.

We don't go by.

That trick might've worked on Haley, but I know that's a picture of Chachi.

In natural speech, we usually reduced, have Thio, so might have becomes might have.

The same happens with other exhilarate burbs like might, for example, would should could, et cetera.

Let's see some examples.

I would have laughed, too.

We never should have talked about this.

I couldn't say no, I could've said no, which is why you have 12 friends on Facebook.

Chachi is a character from the American Siri's happy Days.

Alex is referring that the profile picture of Claire's fake profile is actually a picture of this character.

Are you with Haley?

In what way?

Physically romantically, Mer, Italy.

Haley did it Dylan several times.

Anyone who watches the Siri's knows that Dylan is not very smart.

So when Claire asked him if he is with Haley, he doesn't know what she means.

It could be physically meaning she is there with him.

It could be romantically because depending on the context, if you say you are with someone, it could mean that you're dating someone.

And because Clare suspects Haley has gotten married, she asked if he is with her.

Mer, Italy.

This word comes from marital, which refers to marriage as you've seen in the scene.

You can state your marital status on Facebook.

No, I'm at work.

I have a career now.

Hey, can you hold this phone for a second?

When we say that we have a career, we mean that we have a job that allows you to improve your skills in a certain area and grow professionally, resulting in making progress within an organization or in a field of working and earning more money.

What's funny here is that a sign spinner is not a job that would traditionally fit into what's considered a career.

A final note on this word.

Many English learners mistakenly referred to what they study at university as their career.

However, this would be called your major example.

I majored in international relations at the University of Colorado.

By the way, in the U.

S.

It's common to see people spinning signs in the street to advertise a store, product or service.

If you search online, you would find videos of people showing amazing skills spinning their signs.

You have Haley's iCloud password.

Yeah, she gave it to me in a little envelope with her diary key and a list of things she's most afraid of.

Ooh, try password.

I'm kind of glad that didn't work.

Wait, I think I remember telling her to use something that people wouldn't know about her.

Like her favorite literary character.

I'm in.
