- Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: exaggeration /ɪɡˌzæd͡ʒəˈɹeɪʃən/, polish /ˈpɑ.lɪʃ/
- Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: exaggeration /ɪɡˌzæd͡ʒəˈɹeɪʃən/, unexpected /ʌnɪkˈspɛktɪd/, incorrectly /ˌɪnkəˈɹɛk(t).li/, notorious /nə(ʊ)ˈtɔː.ɹɪ.əs/
Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:

- Sprich Satz für Satz in normaler Geschwindigkeit nach und wiederhole jeden, bis dein Rhythmus zum Sprecher passt.
- Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie verb, exaggeration, pronounce.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
