Hi Gavin! I knew about this forum watching your latest video "Quando não vejo seu comentário..." and got dead high about it, really! So, I have asked this a long ago, in one of your early videos, and I'm here to ask again: I use to watch a huge amount of youtube clips. But, not all of those videos have subs or satisfactory subs. If I needed a little transcription of some short parts, could I count on you?

Hey man! You can definitely come back to the forum here to ask what these segments were that you didn't understand - that's good stuff!

Ok, Gavin! Thanks for your support. Here we go... The link to the video: I have made the transcription of the whole thing, but there were doubts remaining. In some phrases, I've tried to figure out the words. in other ones, I just have left a " ". But all of them are doubts! Here they are: - "...but I would like some of the other ones too ” (01:54)
- "...and the way people’re watching DVDs now obviously with these blue-ray and everything in massive screens “” pepople’re bringing to home-cinema...".(02:18)
- "Maybe I wanna go...??” (02:41)
- "...working in offices and working all over the places..." (03:00)
- "...I mean I've always really been an advocate of the work, of doing the work..." (04:45)
- "... or maybe someone you met in college and go find and, you know, ?? cafe..." (06:11)
- "...And my wife said 'look, I can't watch, I'm going back to work'..." (06:55)
-"...It was wonderful to "" there not depend on anybody else (07:11) - "...when I'm reading a character whether I'm trying to it or not, but i think it is something that I'm lucky with alright?" (08:45)
- "Well, whatever being irreverent, you know. I mean, those remind me of Holy Communion really".(09:40)

First, make sure to say "all of them are questions!" because "doubts" in the plural doesn't exist as a noun in English.
1:54 I would like some of the other ones too to endure. 2:18 screens that people're bringing 2:41??? 3:00 "working all over the place" (quer dizer trabalhar em todos os lugares, em muitos lugares, etc.)
That's all I have time for right now - anyone else able to help? Maybe another native English speaker?

No, cafe like the place, not coffee, the drink.

Yo!!! Guys, I need some help again! This is an excerpt from an interview with Tom hanks, hosted by Kirsty Young. It’s a short piece, from wich I put down the transcription. Please check it out to see whether it is correct or not. The major doubt is in the last part. I’m not sure if he says “I guess” and, a bit later “talking about Chekhov” (I think it is wrong, but I can’t figure out what it is). The link: www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-36241794Transcription: TH - Then I started asking myself a whole different set of questions. KY – And what were they? TH – Those questions were “how do I find the vocabulary for what’s rattling around inside my head?” Not long after this, I started going to the American Conservatory of Theater by myself, to see plays that I had no idea even existed. KY – And you see what was rattling around inside your head, are you able to articulate those feelings having had the childhood you’ve had by 13, 14, 15 (years old)? What was rattling around inside your head? TH – (he gets emotional)…What’ve you done to me? KY – I can really apologize… TH – No, that’s all right, because I’ve put far too much thought into this list. What is was, was… it was the vocabulary of loneliness. KY – And that comes up all of the time, every movie I watch you in, it always seems to come down to a man struggle with loneliness. TH – when I was twenty, I was casted in a play that was, I guess, directed by Vincent Dowling. And I went up in the work in this theater for three years in Cleveland. He was the man who said to me “You know, if you want to, you can be an actor, but it’s not an easy choice to make”. But at the very first rehearsal, he was talking about Chekhov and he said “all the great plays are about loneliness!” And that was, it was a lightning bolt, I mean… I said “that’s why I’m here, that’s why I went to the theaters by myself.”

He was the man who said to me “You know, if you want to, you can be an actor, but it’s not an easy choice to make”. But at the very first rehearsal, he was talking about Chekhov and he said “all the great plays are about loneliness!” And that was, it was a lightning bolt, I mean… I said “that’s why I’m here, that’s why I went to the theaters by myself.” Não tenho 100% de certeza mas foi o que me pareceu.

Sophomore, thanks a lot for your atention!
I was stumbling between "and you see" and "and you say", eheheheh!!!
About "guest directing", I hadn't have learned about the term yet. When I've read your correction, I went to search about it.
As they say: living and learning!
Thank you very much!!! And feel free to correct any grammar mistake I make. That's what I'm here for, ahahahahah!!!
