تدريب Shadowing: REAL American English Conversation With Native Speakers - تعلم التحدث بالإنجليزية عبر الفيديو

Hello, people of the internet.

I have a special guest with me today.

We have a very special video.

I am finally giving you a conversation with a native English speaker other than me, because, you know, I have conversations with myself on this channel.

But in this video, we're talking to Gustavo, also known as Gus.

I know he is the second Gustavo on this channel that I've had.

The other one was from Argentina, but he wasn't a native speaker.

This one is a

um puerto rico i don't know what else you want me

to say in spanish um puerto rico calm down before you click off he grew up in puerto rico

but he is a native english speaker

when i first heard him talk i thought

that he grew up in the continental united states now puerto rico is a u.s territory

but normally people in puerto rico they don't speak like you know like exactly like english native speakers

that grew up in like new york and colorado and california and you know but this man

if he told me i grew up in new york colorado

california i would say of course you did i don't notice the difference between him

and other native speakers if you want to fight me in the comments about it don't

because he is a native speaker tell us how you are

a native speaker even though you grew up in puerto rico

i basically um learned both languages at the same time um

even growing up early my grandfather would speak english to me

he grew up in new york he was puerto rican he moved there with his family early on

and then he moved back to puerto rico started businesses here met my grandmother, you know, all that.

So he used to speak English to me when I was growing up.

And I also went to a school that had a pretty good English program.

They had most of the classes were in English.

So I got a good exposure to it.

And just, I think I took more into it because of like American pop culture, music, video games, just media in general.

I consumed a lot of TV shows in English.

Just having a lot of exposure to the language early on

um i think i i developed pretty good um a pretty good accent from

that just just from like listening i think a lot of

of it was comprehensible input just spending a lot of time listening to the language just helped

and i was exposed to it a lot

so i think that's what contributed to me having less of

a noticeable accent than other people especially older people in the

island i think a lot of the older people they didn't

grow up with the with american pop culture the internet

so they don't have as they're not gonna have as good of an accent

so i think just growing up being gen z growing up around the internet i think

that that helps a lot that helped me a lot

and you also told me that you had exposure with people who weren't your family okay so

when i was growing up um i used to live in

a community that's like it's um like it's villas it's basically uh um

but it's a lot it was a there was a pretty big community there

and there were people from all over um there's some people

from new york some people from tennessee like literally left lived right next to me

so i used to hang out with them i'll play board games with them you know i talked to them

because they were friends they're family friends so they would come over i i

so i had a lot of exposure to speaking english with neighbors

and early on so

that probably helped a lot too um you played with kids

oh yeah american kids yeah definitely i would go i lived literally next to a hotel

so i would just sneak in there and i would make friends there

so that was yeah i was very towards the area too

so it's like next to hotels and it's dorado um if you know in puerto rico dorado um

there's a lot of hotels there's a lot of um tourists it's a tourist um town basically

and you also went to a school all in english yes pretty much anything more to say about

that like can you imagine like your school 100 in english

like everything in english you're gonna learn english yeah definitely

that helps a lot yeah the only class

that was in spanish was the spanish class that's funny

so you essentially went to like the same school i went to

but just in puerto rico exactly yeah

and the students were puerto rican yes most of them were

puerto rican there were some who came from the mainland

and just studied there

because they could um they had the clashes english it was easier for them

so there were some americans at that school okay but just to be clear

like gus is a special case because he's acting like oh

if you just expose yourself to american culture blah blah blah blah

but he was privileged

because a lot of puerto ricans like we have a friend he's fluent as hell in english

but he still has a very strong like puerto rican accent yeah

so gus gus had the opportunity the privilege to like actually learn english like a native speaker learns english basically

so we're or almost like that so so yeah

so don't be thinking everybody in puerto rico talks like him

but um i would say

that on average like compared to the rest of spanish speaking

latin america puerto rico has a higher level of english yeah i think

so yeah and the younger generation are gonna be better at it i think gen z

and gen alpha the new generation coming up like my um

my cousin um her her her daughter speaks perfect english too

and like she speaks this

because she's always on her she's always like on social media

on tick tock on just watching american content tv shows the owl house she watches

that she's always watching you know american cartoon

so of course you're gonna pick it up that's true that's

cool do you still feel like there's just a certain level of effortlessness

and comfort like when you're speaking spanish compared to english

or do you feel like like what our friend ari said like

because he has explored so many advanced topics in english

but not in spanish sometimes he feels like he can communicate even easier in english

so how does your brain think about speaking spanish versus english

at this point yeah i think um maybe in english is better for like deeper topics

because i've read more books in english

so i think yeah i think my vocabulary is a little bit better um

when it comes to like more advanced things

100

but i don't know i think i can do both

101

but i want to use spanglish if it's like

102

if i start speaking spanish

103

and doing in those topics i'm probably going to switch to

104

english for certain things i'm just um certain i think yeah i think i do that but

105

when you're just like at home farting around you know just

106

whatever like you're you wake up in the morning your brain

107

isn't even like fully awake yet like do you go to like thoughts in spanish the comments in spanish first

108

or no it depends it depends on what i was doing the day before

109

if i was interacting with a lot of people who speak english then i'm probably gonna go to english or

110

if i was like watching um videos in english then it's gonna be my brain's gonna be in english mode

111

but if i was um watching something in spanish

112

or talking to people in spanish all day then i'm probably

113

gonna be in spanish mode i think it just switches yeah that's kind of crazy

114

but cool yeah that happens to me if if I'm speaking a lot of Spanish.

115

Switches.

116

I mean, I also speak a little bit of German and sometimes German gets in there.

117

Like I'll start speaking it out of nowhere.

118

You're not fluent in German.

119

No, not at all.

120

I'm like an A2 to a B1 maybe at best.

121

But you want to be fluent.

122

I would like to learn more.

123

And you want to go to Germany?

124

Definitely want to go at some point.

125

This man grew up in the Paradise Island of Puerto Rico and he just dreamed of being on the streets of Berlin.

126

Oh yeah.

127

It's hard to see as interesting as the opposite.

128

So you kind of want to see the complete opposite when you travel, I think.

129

You want to see something you don't have access.

130

Do you think Berlin is really the opposite of Puerto Rico?

131

Very different.

132

Yeah.

133

People are less, they're colder probably.

134

They're, the, the language is different.

135

The culture is different.

136

Public transportation is better.

137

It's a different society.

138

It's a different culture and completely, completely different culture.

139

Yeah.

140

You know, we always want what we don't have.

141

The grass is always greener on the other side, right?

142

But, but you love Puerto Rico.

143

I do love it, yeah.

144

And I appreciate it more the older I get, the more I've appreciated it.

145

Why so?

146

I don't know.

147

I appreciate the climate more.

148

I've interacted with people who live in the States with the cold weather.

149

And the more I've gotten into fitness, surfing, cycling, the more outdoorsy I've become, the more I appreciate living here because I can just do that year round.

150

If I was living somewhere where it was cold, I couldn't do the things I do year round.

151

so I've come to appreciate that way more as I've gotten older I don't think about that much

152

but I used to want to be in the cold I used to like oh I want to see snow

153

so fucking bad I've never seen it and yeah

154

but every person I talk to seeing snow they're like fuck

155

that it's the worst thing ever you can't go outside like yeah

156

so yeah I am from there but you always have

157

that curiosity about something you can't experience

158

so you just want to see the other thing you know

159

the new thing I think that's different from what you grew

160

up with no I I grew up in snow land and I am a tropical woman at heart.

161

That's what I always say.

162

I always dreamed of the tropics.

163

So I am happy here in Puerto Rico.

164

Yeah, same.

165

I'm happy.

166

Yeah, I do want to do more traveling.

167

No, traveling is great.

168

But yeah, I don't think you're missing out on snow.

169

Yeah, no, I don't think so.

170

You can travel to warm places.

171

You can go to Germany in the summer.

172

Exactly.

173

That's what I'd probably do.

174

Actually, my aunt, who travels a lot, she likes to go to cold countries

175

because she's from Puerto ricos she likes to go to norway

176

she likes to go i think she went to very south

177

of um argentina like to the very like the coldest places

178

you can go she likes to go into europe in the

179

winter time she like loves the snow some people love it some people are like

180

that yeah they're like the different vibe some people like to

181

freeze yeah i guess i would like to try it i

182

would like to do crazy where it's really cold just to

183

see how much i can bear like maybe cycling in like very cold conditions

184

or like running in very cold conditions or just jumping in lakes

185

that are freezing i would love to do shit like

186

that just to challenge myself it just popped into my head

187

that we have a good topic we could talk about

188

because you're like an extreme guy into i guess everything like

189

fitness related right yeah pretty much bodybuilding calisthenics cycling surfing rock

190

climbing i've done a little bit of um just yeah challenges in general calisthenics i do a lot of um

191

so yeah i do a lot of it i'm very passionate about it i love it

192

and you yeah you could do that anywhere

193

so you like the idea of challenge challenging yourself in different climates

194

and places fitness related challenges well definitely i would love to

195

do like the crazier the better like doing like 100 running

196

100 miles in the freezing cold it i'll do it like

197

that's yeah i love the extreme like the like challenging myself

198

making myself as uncomfortable as i possibly can i love doing like

199

that the more challenging the better you like taking cold showers uh i've done it

200

and yeah i do ice baths ice baths i haven't done

201

because i just don't feel like setting the thing up but

202

if i had had access to it I probably would even

203

though I don't think there's much of a benefit to them

204

I think it's just more for like the mental thing

205

or for like the the fun of it because I don't think plays

206

that much of a role in recovery I could be wrong

207

but I've heard people study saying that it's not that important

208

but that doesn't do much I've heard it's more of a fad thing

209

but I don't know yeah wake up shock your system yeah I don't think you have to do

210

that but not only are you super into fitness

211

and you have a great physique and you're very strong

212

and capable and you're a cyclist

213

and you can bike all around the island like it's nothing

214

in the heat in the sun you are also vegan yeah

215

so tell us tell us about how you are a vegan

216

athlete um yeah i've been vegan for about six years i went vegan around 2019 i think 2019

217

and yeah i found that like not only

218

when i first went vegan um i was worried

219

because i didn't know much about it

220

and there's a plane just right now god damn it ruining

221

my train of thought you can you travel at a different time

222

when i'm not doing an interview no but um

223

when i first went vegan i was already into athletics i

224

was already into power lifting bodybuilding i was doing all that

225

and i was maybe worried okay i wouldn't begin for ethical

226

and environmental reasons like it was the ethical arguments

227

that appealed to me the environmental arguments

228

and i was like already into bodybuilding power lifting at

229

that time and i was worried i was going to lose my gains

230

but at the same time i was kind of having like

231

um my conscience was like um i was fighting with my conscience i was like i'm exploiting animals um

232

I'm like causing environmental damage.

233

So I was like, I can't keep doing this just to like look better or be stronger.

234

So even if I would have lost muscle, I probably still would have been vegan.

235

But not only did I not lose muscle, I noticed I would get leaner.

236

I was able to like increase all my lifts.

237

I would be getting stronger and stronger every time I was able to like, after I went vegan is when I started biking, doing more the cardio, the surfing.

238

So I noticed like my energy levels improved as I went vegan.

239

Like people will say, no, you're going to get brain fog.

240

No, no, no. Everything athletically I noticed improved as I went vegan.

241

So I haven't noticed any downsides to it.

242

At worst case scenario, it's the same as an omnivorous diet that's well-planned, that's like a bodybuilding diet.

243

But at best, I think it has benefits for athletic performance.

244

And I think I've noticed that.

245

Like vegan and healthy are not synonymous.

246

You could be an unhealthy vegan because veganism is really about animal exploitation and rejecting that.

247

But you try to eat healthy for the most part

248

and you think that that has really helped you improve your performance yeah 100 like

249

if you're healthy i mostly do like whole foods i'll have

250

like a little bit of like stuff that's not whole foods here

251

and there especially when i'm doing like cycling i'll have sugar i'll have like stuff

252

that you need to consume to like be able to perform at

253

that level like process sugars here and there but for the most part

254

when i'm eating normally it's just um whole food plant-based for

255

the most part that's mostly what i do beans soy exactly

256

say 10 oatmeal i do a lot of oatmeal protein powder in the oatmeal

257

and veggies i'm not veggies fruits i'll like throw fruit in there um for dinner i'll have like salads

258

or um sweet potato tempeh um tofu i'll do a lot of

259

that seitan here and there so yeah i just mix it up

260

but usually this whole foods plant-based for the most part do

261

you eat rice pasta bread um rice i'll eat rice um often i think i do more sweet potato um

262

and potatoes in general i think it's easier to cook

263

but um rice i'll do i just don't have to i I don't have access to a fridge right now, so I'm just using potatoes more.

264

But yeah, rice is good.

265

Pasta I love.

266

And I'll do some of those protein pastas that are with chickpeas here and there.

267

Those are really good.

268

Like the protein pastas, the edamame pasta.

269

Those are good.

270

Are you focused on like hitting a certain protein goal?

271

Like do you count, you know, your protein grams?

272

I try to get around like 0.8 grams per pound of lean body weight.

273

So for me, that's like around 120 grams.

274

So I'll try to aim for that most of the time um

275

but like sometimes i go above like usually i go above

276

because that's pretty low and i'm eating a lot of calories

277

so sometimes i'll hit a gram per pound of body weight protein like 170 grams

278

but yeah like the minimum is like usually 100 120 that's like the minimum

279

and i don't notice much of a difference going higher than

280

that and when you hit 170 grams do you feel like you're like forcing yourself to eat protein at

281

that point or it's easy um not really because i'm eating

282

so many calories like i'll easily eat like 4 000 calories a day so 4 000 3500 something like that so

283

At that point, it just comes with the amount of calories.

284

So it's super easy.

285

I think when you're cutting, it can be a little harder.

286

But still, especially if you know the food state, those goals, like it becomes easy the more you do it for the long, if you do it for a long time, you're going to get the hang of it.

287

That's true.

288

You're so active.

289

You can eat so many calories and you still be shredded.

290

Yeah, I'm like working as a surf instructor.

291

I'm there.

292

I'm going to the gym.

293

I'm biking around the city, going to the gym.

294

Like I'm doing a lot of physical activity on my days off.

295

I'll do like 60 mile bike rides, all that shit.

296

He never stops moving.

297

Yeah, exactly.

298

Most of the day I'm moving.

299

Even in his sleep, his legs are doing cycling.

300

Anything else you want to add about being a vegan, a Puerto Rican athletic, high athlete, high training.

301

Well, not high, like, you know, not on drugs, like high athleticism, no steroids, no natural, completely natty, 100% natty.

302

Anything to add about your lifestyle?

303

Anything you want to share?

304

I don't know.

305

That sums it up pretty well.

306

Is it easy to be vegan?

307

It's fucking super easy.

308

Yeah.

309

And if you want to be like me and be like, have no muscle and be skinny and not move very much in a day and also eat plant-based,

310

you can do that too because that's another option yeah

311

but his options are better yeah no that's what um what

312

you want to do like you don't have to different people

313

like different things um i'm gonna ask you some random questions

314

on the topic of food i want to ask you what is your go-to comfort food

315

or what is your like favorite food

316

or foods uh lately comfort food um probably granola and monster

317

and how do you eat your granola i eat the whole fucking bag usually and i eat it dry

318

dry the whole bag in one sitting yeah that's what i'm working

319

so it's like easy it's easy calories so i do

320

that a lot does it have a lot of protein it

321

the one i have has like 58 grams of protein

322

because it's like a protein granola

323

so the whole thing is like 50 50 what is the

324

protein in it coming from i think it's soy protein

325

or some sort of protein powder pea protein i don't know what's in it

326

but yeah and do you drink water

327

when you eat yes i do usually usually a fucking white

328

monster here are my bad habits i'm talking about my bad habits

329

but yeah yeah his guilty pleasure is monster yeah i love

330

fucking caffeine i have a serious serious caffeine addiction coffee

331

and monster yeah pretty much coffee i used to try matcha

332

but it much kind of sucks okay yeah the same kick

333

doesn't it doesn't taste as good it's not strong enough yeah

334

well what about have you ever compared like caffeine versus just

335

loading up on like a sugar like a sugary drink for energy I'll do a lot of sugar

336

if I'm doing like 100 plus mile bike rides.

337

Usually casually, I'm not doing that.

338

But yeah, the sugar thing can work.

339

But I do do it.

340

But just for longer rides, I don't do it that often when I'm just day to day.

341

It depends what I'm doing on the day.

342

But what about like talking about meals?

343

Do you have a particular like kind of meal or food that you really love?

344

Like some kind of cuisine?

345

Like do you love Puerto Rican food

346

or some kind of like? do you have any special food

347

that you like special food that i like damn i like going to restaurants here

348

and there like what we had at hp was good on

349

that burrito wraps i like those we went to a vegan restaurant last night me him

350

and all those loaded fries i had a burrito like it

351

was like a a beyond impossible meat burrito with like vegan cheese

352

and some loaded fries that was bomb

353

that was pretty good comfort food i had a burger it

354

was very authentic i felt like i was eating a cow

355

but it it was vegan it almost grossed me out

356

because it was so cow like yeah another comfort food is acai

357

but that's healthy

358

so it's like acai is good i fucking love acai i

359

just had one like before coming here i want one

360

that is a good answer to the question next one would be i wanted to ask you if money

361

and logistics didn't matter what would you be doing i would

362

probably be doing some version of the same thing i'm still doing like the hybrid athletic stuff

363

but probably travel more i don't know uh go around different

364

countries collaborating with people who are doing similar things uh that's

365

probably what do you mean similar things um people who are

366

athletes hybrid athletes people who are doing a lot of like

367

um calisthenics parkour fucking climbing surfing just probably collaborating with different

368

people meeting connecting with more people um doing more of that

369

because what i actually like doing i'm probably working less than just traveling more

370

and doing more collaborations doing more like stuff that's creative and

371

and yeah stuff like that that's probably what i'd be doing

372

yeah like the question is like if you didn't have to like even think about money or work

373

essentially you just like could do literally whatever you want that's what you would do

374

yes something similar to what i'm doing right now

375

but just not working obviously and just doing it not doing lessons

376

and just surfing myself or improving there uh well um rock climbing more

377

uh yeah just doing more outdoorsy stuff and with like-minded people yeah

378

and traveling cycling the world probably would do

379

that too i would probably that's something i've wanted to do

380

i wanted to do south america cycle from maybe i think

381

all south america probably i have a colombian friend who's a cyclist

382

and he wants to go from like alaska to patagonia oh yeah i've heard people doing

383

that that's crazy and that's doable yeah that's gonna take you maybe like two years yeah

384

but it's it's an amazing journey yeah germany you can go to europe you can do

385

that in europe europe is the easiest place to start

386

because the infrastructure is really good in europe it's safer there's more of a culture of like couch surfing um

387

and just hitchhiking all that stuff is more popular in like europe

388

so i think it's easier and safer to do it in europe first

389

but yeah i've seen people doing in africa asia

390

that stuff is amazing i don't think i would do the middle east right now

391

because of what's going on but

392

but i would love to go to the middle east afghanistan all those places they're beautiful syria all of it

393

but it's a little hot right now basically you would just live an extremely active lifestyle even more than now

394

and more in like more social probably yeah

395

and in different countries definitely i'm meeting people i'm just collaborating

396

and doing stuff and just doing like projects

397

and i don't know it's collaborations collabs yeah just meeting people

398

who are doing the same thing that's where it's at what's a challenge you faced

399

that made you stronger i think just recently i think working

400

at a hostel was like one of the most challenging things

401

because i think i just overcame a lot of my fears my social anxiety just being forced to be around

402

so many people and just running a hostel i think i'm ready for more things

403

because of that like i survived that

404

so i think i can like uh put myself in those situations more often

405

and just be fine with it i think

406

that helps with the travel thing

407

if you're comfortable just being around a lot of people different

408

people different perspective different walks of life i think that's very valuable

409

if you want to like travel if you want to do like

410

that so i think that made me stronger as a person having gone through

411

that experience living in a hostel

412

and running a hostel for a year for a year crazy in puerto rico

413

and it was the cheapest one right cheapest one

414

so a lot of crazy a lot of like you know

415

like not i don't know how to say it without being

416

rude i mean just the craziest people are gonna meet veterans

417

like they're a veteran there was like a veteran there who was an alcoholic like left the room with

418

so many beer cans like the like we had to kick him out i think

419

he called me like um i think the n-word

420

or something he like insulted me some like you n-word

421

or something something like that and uh now we i think we kicked him out

422

but afterwards the the people who do get them the housing

423

i don't know something veterans something they called um do you know um where this guy went

424

or something and they were like uh they were looking at him

425

because he was on like suicide watch or something

426

that he was like you know they were worried about him

427

do you know well he was here last well you know

428

they wanted to reach out to him there was a peruvian

429

guy who would i would be sleeping in the dorms

430

because before i had a private room i would sleep in the dorms

431

and there was this peruvian guy

432

and he would curse his ex wife in his sleep he would be like

433

that that that that that that that that

434

and he would have telenovelas on his like laptop

435

or whatever playing at full volume what's a book movie

436

or show that changed your perspective um books damn let's see uh critique of the gotha program by marks

437

that had an influence on me and made me question capitalism

438

and all that shit um thinking of a different like i'm starting to think of different alternatives

439

and i think capitalist realism mark fisher uh really like

440

that one that made me think more about like looking for alternatives

441

and stuff yeah those are those are ones

442

that i can think of off the top of my head oh i think david graver too um jobs like

443

that most jobs are like complete

444

and they they serve no real purpose like they're just they're

445

like like they don't really serve a purpose in society like society would be just the same

446

if they didn't even exist there's so many jobs like

447

that i think yeah no a lot of a lot of

448

jobs yeah a lot of jobs i think you talk about managerial class um some some forms of lawyers

449

that wouldn't have to exist um yeah we pretend to work they pretend to pay us exactly

450

if i'm going to read something i want it to be

451

non-fiction i want to learn something about some topic i'm interested

452

in i'm personally not really interested in fiction what about you i'm not

453

that interested in fiction like i don't read it

454

that often i would like to get into it i would like to be you know somebody who

455

but i think it's good i think imagination is good i think like think even

456

if something's fiction it can it can apply i think imagination is good to like

457

if you want to envision different um ways society could function

458

i think imagination i think create like stuff in fiction could become stuff

459

that you can apply into the real world i've never thought about

460

that yeah i've heard people talking about how we should like write like fiction

461

and into like um how do you say this to think

462

of alternatives into different things different ways society could work i

463

usually say with fiction books like i just want to watch the movie i don't have time for

464

that yeah but usually the book is better everybody who reads the book says is better

465

and it usually is because less budget you know more time

466

and there are certain like fiction books that are kind of saying something deeper about society like like 1984

467

for example that i think should be essential to read we read

468

that in school yeah george orwell classic

469

that kind of stuff you know is there a skill you've

470

always wanted to learn a skill i've always wanted to learn let's see

471

that i haven't learned yet front lever i haven't managed to

472

do a front lever yet that's like a calisthenic skill where you like um hold the bar

473

and you like stay completely um horizontal like i really want to learn

474

that i'm getting closer

475

but i haven't unlocked it yet i'm excited for your journey

476

yeah i think you're gonna be one of the best You're only 25.

477

We didn't even say his age.

478

He's only 25.

479

Oh, yeah, I'm 25.

480

He's so great for 25.

481

Thank you.

482

He's doing very well, right?

483

You're like, what were you doing at 25? Be honest. Be honest.

484

Not this.

485

Okay, I'm kidding.

486

No, but I want to be with you when I grow up.

487

If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?

488

Superpower.

489

Teleportation would be good.

490

Oh, but then you wouldn't have to ride your bike that you like doing.

491

I bet I can still do that, but then I can teleport the bike to fucking Europe

492

or Asia or like fucking South America and just do it when I want to.

493

Get rid of the planes.

494

Let's just teleport.

495

I'll be fucking awesome.

496

No, that would be that would be great because planes, I don't like planes and airports.

497

They do scare me.

498

Planes are anxiety inducing.

499

And they are not good for the environment.

500

No, they're terrible.

501

They're one of the worst.

502

So we need to work on our teleportation technology.

503

Yeah, I think so.

504

Star Trek they had like a little thing they went in

505

and they would like teleport but they would not be like the same

506

because there's like this thing like if you teleport

507

and you change every cell in your body like like this like how do you say

508

that they separate are you the same person

509

when you teleport back oh yeah scary i think pretty much have to die for like a second right

510

because your your brain your heart all is separated

511

and then it comes back together right comes back together no i never saw star trek no yeah

512

but they had the same kind of thing in harry potter teleportation.

513

Yeah, I saw a few episodes of Star Trek.

514

Are you a nerd at heart?

515

A little bit, a little bit more than I give off.

516

You'd never know he used to be.

517

What would you call yourself when you were a teenager?

518

I would say I was pretty alternative metal goth type of thing.

519

I was really into like all the the fucking goth bands of the cure about house sisters of mercy the joy division.

520

And then I got into black metal dark throne on Satyra

521

Khan Emperor all the fucking black metal bands mayhem all that

522

but you're still into the music i'm still into the music

523

and a little bit i think i still have the undertones

524

of like somebody who was um very alternative you just don't wear colored contacts anymore yeah and

525

and dye your hair oh no you do dye your hair

526

i have like some a little bit blonde a little bit i bleached it

527

حول هذا الدرس

في هذا الفيديو، سنستمع إلى محادثة حيوية بين متحدث أصلي للغة الإنجليزية من بورتو ريكو وشخص آخر. سيتناول الحوار موضوعات متنوعة، مما سيساعدك على تحسين مهاراتك في الاستماع والتحدث. من خلال الاستماع إلى الن accents المختلفة وفهم السياقات، ستتمكن من تحسين النطق باللغة الإنجليزية بشكل ملحوظ.

المفردات والعبارات الأساسية

متحدث أصلي (Native Speaker): تشير إلى الشخص الذي تربى وتحدث اللغة كلغته الأم.
تعرض للغة (Exposure to the Language): يشير إلى مدى تعرضك للغة من خلال المواد المختلفة مثل الأفلام والموسيقى.
ثقافة البوب الأمريكية (American Pop Culture): يشمل هذا العديد من عناصر الثقافة التي تؤثر على اللغة، مثل الأفلام والألعاب.
لهجة (Accent): الطريقة التي يتحدث بها الأفراد في مناطق معينة، مما يؤثر على نطق الكلمات.
التواصل (Communication): القدرة على التحدث مع الآخرين وفهمهم.
تفاعل اجتماعي (Social Interaction): يشير إلى التفاعل مع الآخرين، وهو مهم لتطوير مهارات اللغة.

نصائح للممارسة

لتحقيق أقصى استفادة من الفيديو، حاول استخدام طريقة التظليل في الإنجليزية لتحسين نطقك. يمكنك القيام بذلك من خلال اتباع خطوات بسيطة:

استمع إلى الحوار بتركيز، وكن على دراية بسرعة الحديث ونغمة الصوت.
قم بتكرار الجمل بعد سماعها مباشرة، محاولا محاكاة النغمة والإيقاع.
استخدم تقنية shadowspeak لتجاوز الصعوبات في النطق، حيث يمكنك أن تتحدث في نفس الوقت مع المتحدث الأصلي.
كرر العبارة عدة مرات حتى تشعر بالراحة معها، ولا تتردد في العودة إلى جزء من الفيديو إذا كان ذلك ضرورياً.
تفاعل مع الآخرين الذين يتعلمون اللغة، فهذا سيساعدك على تحسين مهارات التواصل بشكل أسرع.

تذكر أن ممارسة اللغة بشكل دوري ستساعدك على تحقيق تقدم سريع، لذا استغل كل فرصة لممارسة shadowing وتطوير مهاراتك في اللغة الإنجليزية!

القواعد في هذا الفيديو

أكثر التراكيب التي يستخدمها المتحدث، مع العبارات نفسها من الفيديو:

التركيب	في الفيديو
“used to” used to + فعل — عادة أو حالة في الماضي لم تعد قائمة	used to speak · used to live · used to hang
المضارع التام have/has + اسم المفعول — حدث ماضٍ ما زال له أثر الآن	has explored · i've read · I've appreciated
جمل الوصل who / which + جملة — معلومة إضافية عن شخص أو شيء	people who weren · people who speak · people who live
المبني للمجهول be + اسم المفعول — التركيز على ما يحدث لا على من يفعله	was exposed · was privileged · be shredded

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟

التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
