hey guys and welcome to cool vision in this video we're gonna visit
2
Shanghai welcome to Shanghai guys this is the third most populous city in the world
3
and the most populous city in China with a population of
4
26 million shanhai is located on China's central coast bounded to
5
the east by the East China Sea on the southern estuary
6
of the Yanxi River with the Huangpu River flowing through it the The city's area is 6341 square kilometers,
7
so it's almost three times larger than Moscow and four times larger than London.
8
Today it's the business capital of China with a GDP of 670 billion dollars, the highest among Chinese cities,
9
and it also has the world's busiest container port, the Port of Shanghai.
10
So, let's explore the city, meet locals, try delicious food
11
and find out why some girls wouldn't go on a date with you if you're not from 310 area.
12
if you arrive at shanghai pudon international airport
13
you can take a maglev train directly to the city the maglev train thank you very much wow stepping inside
14
it's a magnetic levitation train
15
which means it floats on magnets prior to may 2021 the cruising speed was an astonishing 431 kilometers per hour
16
but now unfortunately they slowed it down to 300 kilometers an hour
17
which still pretty impressive it costs 50 renminbi
18
and takes eight minutes from the airport to the city very convenient
19
and entertaining the most popular area in the city is the
20
city's historic waterfront area the bund also known as waitan
21
and actually the bund from mandarin means embankment there's
22
so much western influence there's even a charging bull just like the one on wall street in new york
23
Grab him by the horns
24
Once the financial heart of the city
25
Today the Bund is home to high -end restaurants and hotels
26
And the number of 1920s era buildings
27
Including the Art Deco Peace Hotel Completed in 1929
28
Another famous building is the neoclassical HSBC building
29
And it served as the branch of HSBC
30
Which actually stands for Hong Kong Shanghai Banking Corporation Other famous
31
buildings include the Customs House Chartered Bank building the north china daily news building
32
and so many more most of these buildings were built in the 19th
33
and the early 20th century by european powers as you can tell there is a significant european influence why is
34
that foreign powers mostly britain had been illegally exported in opium
35
from india to china since the 18th century china wanted to stop the opium trade
36
because it was bringing nothing but social
37
and economic problems to the country like the widespread predication
38
but China lost the Opium Wars and was forced to open dozens of cities to Western traders.
39
Thus Shanghai from 1860s to the 1930s was basically split into a Chinese half and the European style
40
Western half, a rich and powerful center of the foreign establishment, operating as a legally protected treaty port.
41
The Huanpu River divides the metropolis into two parts Hudong that is the east side and Pushi that is the west side.
42
There are three ways to cross the river.
43
The first one is to take a ferry.
44
The second one is to go by car or a bus.
45
And the last one is taking the Bund Sightseeing Tunnel.
46
Of course, this one is mostly for tourists and it costs 50 renminbi one way.
47
On the opposite side from the Bund, you will find Lujiazue.
48
It's a peninsula formed by a bend of the river that was nothing but villages and warehouses some 30 years ago.
49
But since the 1990s, Lujiazue was turned into the new financial district of Shanghai, thanks to the economic reforms initiated by leader Dan Xiaoping.
50
Today they call it the Chinese Wall Street.
51
500 ,000 people work in Lujiazue with an average age of 29 and a half years, 70 % of whom have a master's degree or higher.
52
Today Lujiazue is Shanghai's glitzy financial district, home to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, first free trade zone in mainland
53
China, Shanghai Aquarium, fancy malls, stylish bars with panoramic views, and a cluster of super tall futuristic skyscrapers like
54
The pink rocket -like
55
Oriental Pearl TV Tower.
56
This tower has 15 observatory levels.
57
There's also a revolving restaurant at the 267 meters level.
58
Another super tall skyscraper is the Jin Mawa Tower, 420 meters tall.
59
The Shanghai World Financial Center, 492 meters, nicknamed the bottle opener because it kind of looks like a bottle opener.
60
and finally shanghai tower this is the tallest building in china
61
and the third tallest in the world 632 meters i decided to visit the observation deck at shanghai tower obviously
62
which offers spectacular views across the city besides being the tallest
63
building in china shanghai tower also has the world's fastest elevator
64
which used to travel at the speed of 20 .5 meters per second
65
but now they had to slow it down to 10 meters per second
66
because some people would literally bleed from the nose by the time they reached the top
67
outside i saw some guys with a drone
68
and i wanted to talk to them line a drone in
69
shanghai is impossible without a license can i ask you what you guys do
70
so now we are do the building inspection
71
so you can see the pilot and the pilot turned out they're a drone inspection company.
72
They hooked me up with some amazing shots in exchange for some Renmin B.
73
The city is huge.
74
Luckily, Shanghai Metro is also very huge.
75
It is the longest subway system in the world.
76
508 stations, 826 kilometers in length.
77
It's twice the length of New York City subway.
78
Subways are just so clean, so nice you guys believe we're inside the subway
79
but it's very easy to use and the trains are always on time look see the train is coming
80
and in 12 seconds the doors will open 4 3 1 yes
81
and the door is open you can buy a travel card
82
and top it up or better yet set up an alipay account
83
and pay with your phone by scanning a QR code
84
so convenient also Alipay will help you use the local uber called Didi
85
which is much cheaper than conventional taxis
86
if you're choosing a hotel I think anything online too is a great choice
87
this line goes straight through the city and it's easy to get everywhere you hear it cool vision is in town downtown
88
Shanghai Wukong Road you want me to come here now
89
Now, let's meet my friends, Henry and Kunal.
90
Henry is a local guy and Kunal is from India, but he's worked in Shanghai for seven years now.
91
Both have lived in the US and both now work for Nike.
92
Henry wanted to take us around his favorite places in the city and we started with the former French concession.
93
What is the French concession?
94
In the 1800s, after a prolonged struggle with imperialist powers, China was forced to allow foreigners to take possession of designated areas in Shanghai, called concessions.
95
The French concession existed between 1849 to 1946 and consisted of upscale residential
96
and retail districts and was also the center of Catholicism.
97
Today, the French concession is an area that is popular with tourists and expats,
98
and you can wander around for hours without feeling like you're in an unbustling Asian metropolis.
99
Wukan Road has the highest density of historic villas.
100
So this is the Wukong building.
101
It was originally built in 1924, so exactly 100 years from now, yeah.
102
Used to be called the Normandy apartment, when that time, like I mentioned, there's a lot of foreigners, people from France, British, they come here,
103
and then they used to be lived here.
104
Henry wanted us to try some local delicacies, and we had a fantastic lunch at the Rose Restaurant.
105
One thing you have to know about Shanghainese cuisine is that it's sweet.
106
Wow, the chandelier is so impressive.
107
Wow, look at that.
108
I'm going to the first floor.
109
Oh, it's a busy place.
110
The first dish in sweet and sour pork.
111
You'll find it tastes very similar to sweet and sour chicken in the U .S.
112
And this one is a reddish, but they make it in a very, very complicated way
113
so chicken sauce bai yebao kind of like a tofu
114
but it makes the vegetables and this tofu stick together
115
so also the one i really like i really like yeah
116
and the president beef to be honest my also my first time trying
117
this i don't know why they call the president b
118
but we'll try and see how
119
and the shrimp with crab meat also another very classical shanghai cuisine
120
so almost every every present company i would recommend
121
and you will find the latest thing
122
and the last one i would like to introduce this one i believe originally from Suzhou
123
but Suzhou is very close to Shanghai so that's why it also makes part of the Shanghai dish the squirrel
124
mandarin fish songfu guiyuan chinese but why most foreigners like this is
125
because they make it boneless most fish in china cooked are with some original fish head fish bones
126
but this one no so you don't need to worry about
127
that all you need to do is just to cut it
128
and then have a very good taste so this is for love okay thank you the check came to over 200
129
yes shanghai can be pretty expensive henry and kunal told me a lot about the local realities
130
apparently when you try to invite a girl on a date she will ask you
131
if your area code is 310 the first three digits of the ID number for people born in Shanghai.
132
If you're not Shanghainese, the remaining Shanghainese will not accept you, especially in terms of.. for finding a partner.
133
Finding a partner, but we could be friends, bring colleagues, that's all fine.
134
Other things are fine, but like finding a partner?
135
They start to ask you this question first.
136
Are you 310, do you own a house, something like that?
137
If no, we don't need to go out even for a date.
138
She'll mention, if you're not 310, don't contact me.
139
Speaking of girls.
140
And are you guys students?
141
Yeah.
142
What did you guys study?
143
Dance major.
144
All of you?
145
Yeah.
146
Oh, cool.
147
Very nice, very nice.
148
And tell me, what do you like about Shanghai?
149
The environment makes you feel relaxed.
150
So since you've learned to dance, can you show something?
151
Shanghai needs move fast and stay caffeinated the city reportedly has more coffee shops than London New York or Tokyo.
152
Shanghai is now home to over 8 ,000 coffee shops so we had to have some local coffee.
153
The place we went to was called Into the Forest
154
and they had amazing coffee and what surprised me is that they had edible cups.
155
You can drink the coffee and eat the cup afterwards.
156
No waste.
157
Have you guys ever seen edible This one?
158
Wow, are you that hungry?
159
It tastes like a cookie, like a biscuit or something.
160
Then we decided to go cycling around the neighborhood.
161
For locals, it's extremely affordable because you can get a monthly subscription for $3.
162
Hello, hello, that's you.
163
All right, I'm following you, okay?
164
It's so enjoyable, just cycle or walk along the tree -lined streets with an array of bars, cafes, restaurants and boutiques.
165
Feel the real character of Shanghai, and it becomes clear why this is seen as the most livable city in China.
166
I'm riding a bicycle in downtown
167
Shanghai, and that's the best means of transportation you can find, you know.
168
No traffic jam, go from one place to another, and it's very, very affordable.
169
After that, we took a taxi to another trendy neighborhood, and I got a chance to talk to the taxi driver, with Henry being my translator.
170
Let's interview him.
171
Yeah, absolutely.
172
What does he like about Shanghai?
173
What do you like about Shanghai?
174
What do you like about Shanghai?
175
What do you like?
176
How much money can you make as a taxi driver?
177
You can't make too much money, but the expensive is really high.
178
6 ,000, 7 ,000, 8 ,000.
179
Does he want to live in Shanghai forever or he wants to move somewhere else?
180
We can only live here in Shanghai, right?
181
If we leave here, we'll be back home.
182
Yeah, he's joking, kind of joking about his age.
183
He said he's already old enough to move around.
184
That's why maybe probably just stay in Shanghai.
185
Okay, wonderful.
186
Wonderful.
187
And the neighborhood we've come to is called Xin Tian Di.
188
So you guys see the Starbucks is in Shikumin, which is a traditional house for Shanghai.
189
It's traditional Shanghai architecture from the 19th century, and it's like a stone buildings, and you will see them in many parts of the city.
190
Unfortunately, many of them have been demolished over the years, but some of them are still preserved as part of the cultural heritage,
191
and they're so wonderful.
192
Once this area used to be a block of old Shikumin buildings.
193
What is a Shikumin?
194
Loosely translated, it means a stone gate.
195
So this is what they call Shikumens, right?
196
Yeah.
197
It's a good representation of the 19th century architecture that was so ubiquitous in Shanghai back then.
198
All these narrow alleys and it's so fun exploring them.
199
These Shikumin houses began appearing in Shanghai's British concession in the 1850s and 60s.
200
But now this neighborhood has been turned into one of Shanghai's most fashionable areas filled with restaurants, shops and bars.
201
This place is popular at night because there are plenty of bars and young people love to hang out, right?
202
Oh, I see it's lots of fun already starting.
203
Surprisingly, this area is also the birthplace of Chinese Communist Party.
204
How ironic that one of China's most important communist sites is located alongside one of its most expensive shopping and eating areas.
205
There's even a name confusion.
206
If you look at the name of the subway station, it has a double name.
207
We visited the site of the first
208
National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
209
It's a small museum located where the people who started the Chinese Communist Party first met to plan its creation.
210
You'll learn about the Chinese history and Revolutionary Age and the modern PRC.
211
As a Russian, I was surprised to find so many documents in Russian language.
212
That's because the Bolshevik revolution in Russia played a huge part in spreading communist ideas in China.
213
Nice museum, biased of course, but those who can read between the lines will find it interesting.
214
Speaking of interesting...
215
Okay guys, I'm in Moscow all of a sudden.
216
But no, I'm still in Shanghai and this building is called Shanghai Exhibition Center.
217
And it's built in the Stalinist neo -classical style
218
and it was completed in 1955 to commemorate the friendship between the Soviet Union
219
and the Communist China and in the background you see all those skyscrapers
220
and they look like Moscow City
221
so lots of resemblances I bet I can trick some people into thinking
222
I'm in Moscow most architecture in Shanghai is very modern that's
223
because buildings have a 40
224
or 70 year lease from the government most of the times they will not renew the lease and build something new instead.
225
If you need a break from all the hustle and bustle of the city, I have an incredibly peaceful and beautiful place for you.
226
It's called Yu Garden.
227
Welcome to the Garden of Happiness.
228
It was built all the way in 1559 during the Ming Dynasty.
229
Yu Garden reflects Jingen Garden architecture.
230
It was built by Pan Yunduan, a government officer who built it for his father as he was approaching old age.
231
This garden has over 40 scenic spots, including pavilions, rock formations and ponds.
232
A centerpiece is the exquisite jade rock, a porous five -ton boulder.
233
When you step out of the garden, you'll find yourself in a bustling marketplace set, Yuyuan Bazaar, in an old neighborhood with traditional architecture and shops,
234
selling everything from dumplings to Chinese souvenirs.
235
It's always super crowded.
236
The city has many other beautiful parks like
237
Shanghai Botanical Garden.
238
It's the biggest municipal botanical garden in China.
239
I don't know about you guys, but I love visiting botanical gardens because they show you the variety of the vegetation that's specific to this area,
240
and this one has really good reviews.
241
It has a large collection of thousands of plants, including some rare species.
242
it was almost empty on that day because it was 37 outside so yeah
243
these cicadas are so loud and i'm actually look at me i'm sweating because it's 37 outside okay
244
century park is another wonderful park it's the largest park of the city i was staying at dorset
245
Shanghai Hotel, and this is the view that I had from my room.
246
Pretty good.
247
Century Park is great for jogging or walking.
248
You will find people doing Taiji in the morning.
249
There's also a great track around five kilometers, which goes around the park, and it's busy with runners and joggers at all times of the day.
250
another cool park is people's square park
251
but what makes it really unique is the marriage market yes a marriage market parents
252
sometimes even grandparents who have the anxiety of their unmarried offspring come here to trade information on their children
253
and find a perfect match they come here to kind of advertise
254
and find a partner for their kids and they advertise their children by state
255
and which college they went to their height their age
256
and you know just basic information about them and
257
if the other party is interested that's how they match
258
and maybe form families
259
it never hurts to learn a little bit of
260
mandarin people square is the largest square in the city
261
and it's close to the park it's surrounded by buildings like the shanghai municipal government the shanghai museum
262
and many others in the past
263
it used to be a horse racing course the main shopping
264
district of shanghai is the east nanjin road nanjin donlu in chinese
265
so this place is like the commercial center of shanghai so many stores
266
shopping malls everything
267
and it's always crowded it is the world's longest shopping district around I'm 5 .5 kilometers long
268
and it attracts over 1 million visitors a day.
269
It's a street filled with shops, eateries, and lovely restaurants tucked away from above the street level.
270
Hello guys!
271
Hello guys!
272
What's your name?
273
My name is Xu Wenying and...
274

289
clothing or electronic gadgets.
290
That's the place to be.
291
You'll find all the major designers and manufacturers.
292
This road leads to the Bund, so expect a wave of other people to accompany you,
293
but don't worry there are police officers to direct pedestrian traffic.
294
In a situation like this you have to regulate traffic because otherwise these cars would have no chance.
295
See that crowd and this is my crowd, okay?
296
We're going in different directions.
297
See that crowd is going this way, we're going this way.
298
West Nanjing Road is different it's not so crowded
299
and it's more upscale with luxe residential high -rises and trendy nightlife it's like
300
North Michigan Avenue in Chicago or the Fifth Avenue in New York City
301
Henry and I went to a popular local restaurant let's see what we had for dinner
302
if you see the QR code it's on every table

325
pomelo sago and it originates from Hong Kong
326
it's excellent it feels so fresh like I'm eating real fruit
327
so in US
328
when I would study abroad notice people love to hang out have parties make some noise
329
but here you know in China
330
or in Shanghai you know working the night like here people
331
love to just sit here together order some delicacy delicious food
332
and also very important I have a tea to chat
333
and to talk
334
and although now it's almost 8 p .m here in a working day as you can see there are still
335
so many people in this restaurant.
336
Maybe people have just already finished their dinner
337
but they just love to sit here have some tea chat and this makes people feel relaxing.
338
And you can sit here for like a long time.
339
Yeah, as long as there's tea.
340
Two or three hours, right?
341
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
342
Quite normal.
343
After this wonderful dinner we decided to go for a walk and enjoy this beautiful
344
evening
345
when the sun sets
346
it's the perfect time to go on a river cruise on Juan Pu.
347
You can take a fancy cruise with a dinner like this dragon ship
348
or just go for a basic one for 150 renminbi.
349
To get to the upper deck and get a better view is another 100 renminbi.
350
This has got to be one of the most impressive skylines I've ever seen.
351
It's incredible.
352
On one side you see the modern skyscrapers of the judgeway and on the other the historical,
353
neoclassical, and art deco buildings from the 1920s. So captivating!
354
All right, back to the bond.
355
Wow, just look at the cards.
356
No wonder Shanghai is the wealthiest city in China.
357
See this coffee shop?
358
Luckin Coffee is a Chinese coffee company that was founded in 2017.
359
It now manages over 9 ,300 stores, and it surpassed
360
Starbucks by the number of stores in China.
361
The band is so busy, I've never seen crowds like that.
362
That's what happens when you find yourself in a city of 26 million people.
363
I decided to visit one of the local restaurants.
364
I got some spicy beef.
365
I got some spicy beef.
366
Flum juice.
367
It's very sour, very fresh.
368
I love it.
369
And I did not expect this.
370
I ordered just a sour and spicy soup, but they brought me a whole bucket.
371
There's no way I can finish that.
372
This portion is huge.
373
If you get the impression that there's too much food in this video, you gotta understand that life revolves around food in China.
374
They even say, have you eaten, instead of, how are you?
375
There are
376
so many showrooms of local car manufacturers some cars look super super modern of course
377
they're all electric by the way it pays to have an electric car in Shanghai
378
you pay nothing for a green license plate but for a regular one
379
that is a blue plate it's somewhere between fifteen to twenty thousand dollars just for the plate did you know
380
that Chenhainese dialect is unique from Mandarin Chinese let's ask
381
Henry so Henry I have a question I've heard that people in Shanghai have a specific accent.
382
Is that true?
383
Kind of.
384
Some people can just judge where you're from by hearing to your accent.
385
So that's amazing.
386
Yeah.
387
Can you give me a couple of examples how it's different from, say, the language in Beijing?
388
Beijing is like an R.
389
Let me try my best, okay?
390
Kind of, kind of.
391
Even we call some same thing with a different name.
392
So like a grandpa, They say it's 老老, 老爷, but here we say 外公 ,外婆, so that's kind of different.
393
What about Cantonese?
394
You speak Cantonese?
395
You understand Cantonese?
396
Not really.
397
Not really.
398
Yeah, but they also have some accent.
399
I can sometimes tell.
400
Thank you.
401
If you have enough time, you can take a trip to Jujiajio, Asian town.
402
Heads up, it's pretty far away.
403
It took me one hour and 40 minutes by subway.
404
If you go by Diddy, it's going to take you about an hour.
405
We are in Zhuzaijou, and it's a small town on the outskirts of Shanghai.
406
It's very beautiful, so picturesque.
407
It has a lot of waterways and 36 stone bridges, and you can get a boat ride to enjoy a fantastic evening on the water.
408
Of course, it's a tourist town.
409
There's lots of restaurants, cafes, and whatnot.
410
It's a nice, chill place.
411
No traffic, no motorcycles, then you can spend half a day trying local food and taking pictures.
412
I guess you can call it the Venice of Shanghai, but I felt like it was a little bit touristy and overcrowded.
413
I can only imagine what it's going to be like during the weekend.
414
Unfortunately the staff at many boat places did not speak English and were not very helpful or friendly.
415
Got off work.
416
Any other place?
417
No?
418
Shanghai is not short in museums but if you have to choose one go for a Shanghai museum.
419
It has a comprehensive collection of Chinese artifacts from the ancient times to the modern times
420
but there's a trick even though no ticket is required you got to book it in advance
421
and you got to have a reservation which i don't
422
and i only have two days left in shanghai
423
and everything's been booked so i went to shanghai natural history museum instead it's a great museum
424
but it was crazy crowded though
425
which i think is often the case in china i particularly enjoy dinosaurs
426
and many animals of the past especially the gigantic extinct animals
427
can you imagine a bear of this size like this monster bear
428
or the sable -toothed tiger now that's a good kitty of course you cannot visit
429
Shanghai without visiting its wonderful temples like
430
Jade Buddha temple it was founded in 1882 with two
431
Jade Buddha statues imported from Myanmar by sea the temple now also contains a much larger reclining
432
Buddha made of marble donated from Singapore Another famous temple is Jing 'an Temple.
433
It's located on West Nanjing Road amongst flashy malls and residential buildings.
434
And this is the famous Jing 'an Temple.
435
And the original one was built in 247 A .D.
436
But back then it was located near Suzhou Creek and in 1216 it was relocated to its current place.
437
Another famous temple is Lunhua Temple.
438
First built in 242 AD, it is the oldest temple in Shanghai and has a long history of over 1 ,700 years.
439
It has a lot of unique architectural features of that time like the pointed rooftops and pagodas.
440
The central attraction of the temple is of course the six -tiered pagoda, which rises above the surrounding buildings.
441
A great place to see
442
China meet in Western culture is the National Cathedral Church of China.
443
It has double spires and is designed in the neo -gothic style and it was built between 1906 and 1910.
444
The church building was heavily damaged in 1966 at the opening of the Cultural Revolution.
445
Red guards from Beijing vandalized the cathedral tearing down the spires in the ceiling.
446
If you decide to travel within the country, best go by train.
447
You can come to Shanghai Honchao Railway Station and take a fast speed train to Beijing.
448
It only takes 4 hours and 30 minutes to cover 1100 kilometers.
449
The train travels at 350 kilometers an hour.
450
The China's currency is the renminbi, which means people's money, also known as the yuan.
451
Few people bother with cash these days.
452
Most people use WeChat Pay or Alipay.
453
Like I said, it's a good idea to install those apps in your phone and use services such as Diddy,
454
that is China's Uber, and bike rental apps.
455
You'll find rows of dockless shared bikes on most streets, and they're a great way to get around town.
456
How much money do you have to make to live comfortably in Shanghai?
457
if you ask me 20 000 rmb to the it's it's a minimum thing to live comfortably
458
because the rent would easier run to like 5 000 or more and you need like three four thousand something for
459
food and other expenses if you're not driving if you're driving you need like
460
30 35 yeah so 35 if you're driving
461
if you have a house it goes even higher it also depends on area where you are planning to live.
462
So there are areas like Minghang, Qingpu, those are...
463
Basically, the closer you get to the downtown of Shanghai, the more expensive you need to spend.
464
The city feels incredibly safe.
465
Everybody's so polite and humble.
466
Nobody's eating food or jumping the turnstiles on the subway.
467
But my biggest complaint was the motorcycles riding on sidewalks.
468
That just seems so dangerous.
469
But you know, notice during like downtown some road, they don't have a land specific for bicycles because it's
470
so tight and limited so you see some people have to ride it on the pavement
471
or somewhere else see that's my biggest
472
that's my biggest complaint yeah especially the food delivery guys yes
473
they ride like crazy they ride crazy they can kill
474
you they rush time i'm worried for my safety honestly another way like us
475
sometimes we get a benefit from them because we can order some food
476
and they will deliver it within 30 minutes for you yeah
477
but but i don't like the part they break the rules yeah yeah now let's
478
We talk about stereotypes, right?
479
do chinese people really smoke a lot well some do
480
and some don't
481
but the stereotype about chinese people spitting public is true my taxi drivers never hesitated to spit out of the window
482

483

502

503
Shanghai is so technologically advanced.
504
I've seen robots delivering food at hotels, robots making ice cream and coffee, and people purchasing drinks from vending machines by scanning their faces.
505
I was visiting in July, and let me tell you, it gets hot in the city.
506
During my stay, it was between 37 and 40 Celsius.
507
Luckily, many places we have to stand in line are air -conditioned.

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 travel · Used to be |
| الجمل الشرطية if + جملة، will/would + فعل — شرط ونتيجته | If we leave here, we'll be |
| المضارع التام have/has + اسم المفعول — حدث ماضٍ ما زال له أثر الآن | have lived · you've learned · we've come |
| المبني للمجهول be + اسم المفعول — التركيز على ما يحدث لا على من يفعله | is located · were built · had been illegally exported |
نطق يحتاج إلى انتباه
يستخدم المتحدث 68 من الصيغ المختصرة، مثل I'm, don't, you're. انطقها بصيغتها القصيرة كما تسمعها.
- أصوات “th”: cathedral /kəˈθiːdɹəl/, clothing /ˈkloʊðɪŋ/, bother /ˈbɑðɚ/
- أصوات “sh” و“zh”: shanghai /ˈʃæŋ.haɪ/, concession /kənˈsɛʃən/, residential /ˌrɛzɪˈdɛnʃəl/, delicious /dɪˈlɪ.ʃəs/, dish /dɪʃ/
- الكلمات الطويلة — انتبه لموضع النبر: architecture /ˈɑː.kɪˌtɛk.t͡ʃə/, residential /ˌrɛzɪˈdɛnʃəl/, incredibly /ɪŋˈkɹɛdɪbli/, municipal /mjuˈnɪsɪpəl/, affordable /əˈfɔɹ.də.bəl/
أصوات يجدها متحدثو العربية صعبة:
- /p/ — ليس /b/: انطقه مع نفخة هواء: temple /ˈtɛm.pl̩/, soup /sup/, impressive /ɪmˈpɹɛsɪv/, spicy /ˈspaɪsi/, complaint /kəmˈpleɪnt/
- /v/ — ليس /f/: مع اهتزاز الأوتار الصوتية: impressive /ɪmˈpɹɛsɪv/, convenient /kənˈviː.niənt/, advertise /ˈædvɚˌtaɪ̯z/, vinegar /ˈvɪnəɡɚ/, arrive /əˈɹaɪv/
- تتابع الصوامت — لا تضف حركة بينها: temple /ˈtɛm.pl̩/, communist /ˈkɑ.mjə.nɪst/, impressive /ɪmˈpɹɛsɪv/, accent /ækˈsɛnt/, scan /skæn/
كيف تتدرب بهذا الفيديو
- استمع إلى الفيديو كاملًا مرة واحدة دون أن تتكلم، ودوّن الكلمات التي لا تعرفها.
- ردّد جملة جملة بالسرعة العادية، وكرّر كل جملة حتى يتطابق إيقاعك مع المتحدث.
- سجّل صوتك وقارنه بالأصل، مع الانتباه إلى كلمات مثل temple, communist, soup.
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.
