The universe has brought us the Dragon Warrior!  What?

That flabby panda can't possibly be the answer to our problem!

You were about to point at Tigress and that thing fell in front of her!

If the panda has not quit by morning, then I will have failed you.

I'm Izzy, your real-life English fluency coach, and today we're diving into Kung Fu Panda, where a clumsy panda named Po is chosen accidentally... or not... as the Dragon Warrior.

Now, the Dragon Warrior in this movie is the ultimate Kung Fu fighter who's supposed to protect everyone in the valley.

But as you could see in the clip, Master Shifu thinks this is crazy.

He was sure that one of his students would be picked instead.

Now, did you catch those two advanced expressions they used there?

So the word flabby here describes Po's soft, out-of-shape body.

Which basically means I have disappointed you or I've let you down.

So you didn't meet their expectations and you're sorry for that.

He actually thinks he's the one responsible.

Alright, so let's follow this story and get into today's actual lesson.

We'll watch the scene where Po enters the legendary Hall of Warriors for the first time.

And it's really funny because he's been a fan of Kung Fu his entire life, and now he's finally getting to live his dream.

Let's check out the first part, and then we'll learn all the advanced English words in it, like we just did.

I've only seen paintings of that painting.

The legendary Urn of Whispering Warriors.

Said to contain the souls of the entire Tenshu army.

Sorry, I should have come to see you first.

Oh, well, I mean, it's not like you were going anywhere.

So you're the legendary Dragon Warrior, hmm?

You will never be the Dragon Warrior until you have learned the secret of the Dragon Scroll.

By the way, these advanced expressions that you're seeing highlighted in blue, did you know you can practice them on our app?

Now honestly, you may ask, why would you want to do that?

Well, we've discovered that this is a great method to memorize words so you can remember them later when you have conversations in English.

I mean, I'm sure you've been in situations where you try to speak English, but it's like all the words you know have disappeared from your brain.

So thousands of learners, just like you, are using our app to start speaking English naturally with the words they learn from our lessons.

I'll leave the link in the description below so you can click on that right now using your phone and continue watching this lesson from there.

Alright, so Poe is exploring the legendary Hall of Warriors filled with ancient Kung Fu artifacts.

An artifact is an object made by humans, usually something old and historically significant.

Like in museums, you see artifacts like ancient pottery, weapons, jewelry, or tools.

The legendary Urn of Whispering Warriors, said to contain the souls of the entire Tenshu army.

An urn is a large decorative container like this.

In ancient times, urns were often used to store important things like ashes or sacred objects.

Now ashes are what remains after a body is cremated, that is, burned after death.

In this case, this urn is a mystical container that holds the souls of warriors.

Poe even says hello to it, as if he's trying to communicate with the warriors inside.

The verb to whisper means to speak very quietly or softly like this.

So the Urn of Whispering Warriors suggests that you can hear the quiet voices of the warriors coming from inside the urn.

When you go sightseeing, you're exploring and enjoying the views of a location, usually as a tourist or a visitor.

Poe isn't a tourist, he's supposed to be training.

Shifu is annoyed that Poe is wandering around looking at everything like he's on vacation instead of focusing on his Kung Fu training.

So Poe doesn't notice that Shifu is in the room and that he's the one talking here.

He thinks the voice is coming from the Whispering Warriors inside the urn.

All right, I was waiting to get a phrase like this.

So this is a really good one for practicing advanced pronunciation.

So let's take a look at the way he said those words.

He didn't say, I should have come to see you first.

It was all linked and some sounds were even changed or dropped.
