1
Hey, what's up?
2
It's Alex.
3
Today I'd like to talk about the connected sounds in a short piece where somebody is apologizing for being late.
4
Let's take a look.
5
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
6
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
7
So hear this word I'm, I'm, I'm so sorry I'm late.
8
If I'm speaking slowly and clearly, you can hear that there's kind of a glottal stop and a strong I sound there.
9
But when we speak a little bit faster, it becomes um, um, hey um, hey um, I'm so sorry,
10
um, hey I'm so sorry I'm late.
11
Hey I'm so sorry I'm late.
12
At the end, at the end of late, we're going to turn the T into a glottal stop.
13
Late, late.
14
There's no T sound there.
15
I took the wrong exit.
16
I took the wrong exit.
17
Just try to connect ng to exit.
18
Wrong exit.
19
Wrong exit.
20
I took 282 instead of 283.
21
I took 282.
22
282. Remember to try to tap that t in 80.
23
282 instead of 283.
24
282 instead of 283.
25
So when we say 80, try to tap that T.
26
It's not a T.
27
It's 80.
28
80. Next, of loses its the here.
29
Instead, instead.
30
Try to connect it to instead.
31
Instead of 283.
32
Then it was all one-way roads for like three miles.
33
Then it was all one-way roads.
34
Then it was all, then it was.
35
We have a glottal stop here for it.
36
Then it was all, was all one-way roads.
37
Now that l sound in all gets reduced actually.
38
The l is not a very strong dark L.
39
You can kind of think of it as a half dark L.
40
My tongue is getting ready to say L but it's not going all the way up to the top of my mouth.
41
What's important though is that my lips aren't rounding.
42
I'm not saying O, I'm saying all, all.
43
It was all, it was all one-way roads.
44
It was all one-way roads for like three miles.
45
We'll change four into fur here for like, for like three miles until I could turn around again and get back on the highway.
46
Until I could turn, could turn.
47
We're going to connect the D in could and the T in turn. Could turn.
48
Until I could turn around again and again and nn, nn, get back.
49
So there's no d there in and.
50
Turn around again and get back on the highway.
51
Get back.
52
We're going to take the t in get and turn it into a glottal stop.
53
Get back on the highway.
54
Get back on the, on the.
55
Connect the n and the th together.
56
Just think about it as the th tongue position is going over the n tongue position on the,
57
my tongue is already between my teeth when I say and, on the highway, and then, same thing here, and then,
58
we take out the d in and, then the n has the th tongue position,
59
and then, and then, and then the traffic started getting backed up, and then the traffic started getting backed up.
60
Started getting, started getting.
61
I connect the D and G here.
62
I get ready to say D, started, started, but instead of finishing the D sound,
63
I just say G instead.
64
Started getting, started getting backed up, backed up, backed up.
65
Now at the end of a sentence it's not necessary to say up with the final P sound.
66
We could just say up, up, and close our mouths without actually releasing that sound.
67
But either one is okay.
68
It's your own preference.
69
I can't believe it took so long.
70
I can't believe.
71
I can't believe.
72
We have a glottal stop here instead of a T in can't.
73
I can't believe.
74
I can't believe it took.
75
It took.
76
Connect T and T together.
77
It took it took so long.
78
I'm never taking that exit again.
79
I'm never taking that exit again. That exit.
80
That exit again.
81
I'm never taking that exit again.
82
So here, I'm never, I'm never, we want to connect the m and n sounds but still have separate sounds.
83
I'm never.
84
So we change to the N halfway through the sound.
85
I'm never taking that exit again, that exit again.
86
Both T's here in that and in exit are tapped.
87
That exit again, that exit again, exit it again, that exit again.
88
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
89
I took the wrong exit.
90
I took 282 instead of 283.
91
Then it was all one-way roads for like three miles until I could turn around again and get back on the highway, and then the traffic started getting backed up.
92
I can't believe it took so long.
93
I'm never taking that exit again.

Übungstipps

Um Ihre Englischkenntnisse mit YouTube zu verbessern, empfehlen wir Ihnen die Technik des shadowspeak. Hören Sie sich den Dialog an und sprechen Sie ihn gleichzeitig nach. Achten Sie besonders auf die schnellen Übergänge zwischen Wörtern, wie zum Beispiel das Verbinden von Klängen in „I'm so sorry I'm late“. Üben Sie langsamer, um die korrekten Laute zu erfassen, und steigern Sie dann allmählich das Tempo, bis Sie die natürliche Geschwindigkeit erreichen.

Beobachten Sie auch, wie die Wörter in der Rede reduziert werden, z. B. die Verbindung von „could“ und „turn“ zu „could turn“. Achten Sie auf die Betonung und den Rhythmus der Sätze. Indem Sie so oft wie möglich üben, können Sie Ihre Fähigkeit, sich flüssig und selbstbewusst auf Englisch auszudrücken, erheblich steigern. Nutzen Sie die Möglichkeiten von shadow speak, um an Ihrer Aussprache zu arbeiten und sich an die natürliche Sprechweise zu gewöhnen.

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.
