Shadowing-Übung: Is travel overrated? | Intermediate @Lazy-Chinese - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

I used to know someone.

I didn't like him.

Well, he. One day, he said on WeChat, Huh.

Now, if you want to see how good a person is, don't look at what his job is.

Don't look at what school he went to.

but how many countries he has been to.

Hi, everyone.

I'm very happy today.

Why? Because we can chat with Su Qing.

You should have heard of Su Qing from Lazy Chinese.

You have watched many videos of Lazy Chinese, right? Okay.

Now please let Su Qing say hello to us.

Hello everyone, I'm Su Qing.

I'm from Lazy Chinese.

If you don't know, hum, I want.

Ha ha ha. Now go and watch Lazy Chinese.

Okay. Okay.

So what are we going to talk about today?

Let's talk about travel.

and here and here.

about traveling.

Why do we want to talk about travel?

Because before, I had a video I said wow in the video.

I saw him traveling here.

traveling here.

They traveled a lot.

So I thought wow, he travels a lot.

I didn't travel a lot.

So I think um.

I really envy his life.

and I also want to travel.

But Su Qing said, um.

Really? If you travel a lot, it means um you know more, and think better.

Really? So, um.

we think this is very interesting.

so today we're talking about traveling.

Okay, so now I want to ask Su Qing.

why do you think that traveling a lot may be good, but maybe not so good sometimes.

Yes, you have this feeling.

Yes. Because I know many people who travel a lot.

I think some people may know more things, while others may not.

Yes, I think traveling is a good way to know about the outside world.

But there are many other ways.

There are many other ways to read books or watch movies.

and many more.

Well, then I also think that when I travel, if I don't know the culture of this country, if I go to this country, I still don't know much about it.

Yes, yes. So I think when I travel, sometimes I feel like why I'm here.

Ha ha. Yes.

I want to go home and read books.

Yes. Last year, I went to Europe for a long time.

for seven weeks.

The first week, the second week, the third week, I was happy.

But slowly, I felt that I really wanted to read at home.

Yes, and then I also felt that because in some countries, I don't know their culture.

So I think if I go, I still don't know their culture.

I still need to read books.

Maybe learn their language.

Yes. Travel is a um.

If you have money, everyone can travel.

But I think not everyone can be quiet quietly read books and spend a lot of time learning languages.

Uh-huh. I think I feel the same way as you now.

Because now, this year and last year, Sometimes I think I have time now.

because our work can be done here.

or here. and here, but Sometimes, I think many times.

Do I want to travel?

And where do I go?

I don't seem to want to go to this place very much.

because I don't know the culture of this place, their people, and their history.

But recently, I'm very interested in history.

So I read a lot of history books.

So I really want to The history of this city was like this.

The history of this city was like this.

So because I read books first, so I know that it has this.

knowledge and history.

So I think, well, I want to go here.

So this is my feeling now.

So last year and this year, I didn't travel a lot.

And I also felt that I should travel.

He said why I want to travel.

Yes, I want to travel.

Why should I travel?

Yeah. But now I have this feeling.

So I feel the same as you.

嗯 Sometimes you feel like you've traveled to that place, but you don't know why.

Or you travel.

after traveling, and then you feel like I don't seem to have learned much.

Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

So when I graduated from college, four years of college, and then graduated.

I thought I had money I can go here.

and go there. And at this time, because at that time I thought that I traveled.

I was very good.

But now I think I went there, but I didn't know much about the country.

I don't know now.

So I think When I traveled, what was I doing?

I was taking photos.

Taking photos.

So maybe now our feelings about traveling is different from the feeling before.

Uh-huh. Yes.

100

Many people think traveling is cool.

101

but I think there are many other things that are cool.

102

Yeah. Yeah.

103

I used to know someone.

104

I didn't like him.

105

He One day, he said on WeChat.

106

Chinese people use WeChat.

107

He said on WeChat, hum.

108

Now, if you want to see how good a person is, don't look at what his job is.

109

Don't look at what school he went to.

110

but how many countries he has been to.

111

He has been to many countries, right?

112

Yes, he has been to.

113

Yes, he has been to many countries.

114

Because his parents are rich.

115

I think I don't think he is very good.

116

OK, you can do this thing because you have money.

117

Um. You're right, ha ha ha.

118

You, you, um.

119

Your parents are very powerful, okay.

120

But you are not good.

121

Yeah. Yes. Because I seem to know someone who He is similar to the person you mentioned.

122

Because they think that going to many countries means I'm great, and then I want you to think the same way.

123

So I said, wow, going to many countries I'm very good, so he thinks I'm very good.

124

So he told me, um.

125

I think it's boring to go here in China.

126

It's boring. If I have time, I go there to ski.

127

or go to this country.

128

I think Wow, really.

129

At first, I thought it was cool and good, but then I think You have been to many countries.

130

Maybe you think about it more, or you may think differently from us.

131

Sometimes I think, um, it's just one issue.

132

But he thinks one, two, three, four, maybe you think differently.

133

But after we chatted, I think um I think this is what I think about mine.

134

mine is very small.

135

I think he should think about this, But he thinks smaller, I think, ha ha.

136

This is different.

137

You travel a lot, and it's different from this.

138

You travel a lot.

139

but your ideas are not very powerful.

140

Ha ha, right?

141

Yes, yes, um, um, um, um.

142

So sometimes, maybe most of the time you travel a lot, you really you can think better and more.

143

But it's not always like that.

144

Not necessarily.

145

Yes. Yes. But when I didn't go to many countries before, I haven't been to many countries now.

146

Yes. I really wanted to go to many countries before.

147

Yes. Yeah. But I didn't have money, time or money before.

148

Chinese people without money it's very difficult to go to many countries, right?

149

It's even harder.

150

So I remember asking my students, what countries have you been to?

151

He said, I've been to this country.

152

this country and this country.

153

Then he asked me, And you, Suqing?

154

what countries have you been to?

155

I said, Oh, I haven't been to any other countries.

156

Then I felt It's embarrassing, right?

157

I haven't been to any other countries.

158

Yeah, yeah.

159

So now I think if someone says I haven't been to any other country.

160

but if he has read many books, and knows a lot of things, and he has learned many languages, I still think he is cool.

161

Uh-huh. Hm, traveling at home.

162

travel in books.

163

Yes, this is also traveling.

164

Yes, yes, yes.

165

Okay. I have another question.

166

Because our time is not time.

167

our time. we can think about how to use this time.

168

and we can also work in different places.

169

So maybe many people say, Wow, your job is great.

170

because you can work in this place.

171

Have you ever thought about I work while traveling in this place.

172

It's called旅居.

173

Right, it's called旅居, right?

174

traveling and working in this place.

175

Have you tried this kind of life?

176

or have you ever thought about such a life?

177

Yes. I actually sometimes when I go to other countries, Yes.

178

sometimes I go to Japan, or the UK.

179

I have worked while traveling.

180

but um I don't do a lot of work.

181

Maybe I will have classes every day.

182

I think two hours.

183

very little work.

184

Yes. Because I think if I travel, and then I have to work, then I think I've spent a lot of money here.

185

Ha ha. I should go outside to see things in this country.

186

I can work in Australia.

187

I can do it in Australia.

188

So, yes. Uh-huh.

189

Okay. You just said you went to European countries and also to the UK.

190

and the UK.

191

Now I understand.

192

It's different.

193

Because it's very cheap in China.

194

Right? Because when I travel in China, I may go to this city live.

195

I think it's similar to the cost in Guangzhou.

196

But if you travel, it's very expensive.

197

So, if you go there, if you don't travel, and you have a job, it may be a little bit for a long time, it may be difficult.

198

Yes, I think.

199

if I had a lot of money, I can.

200

but I don't have much money now.

201

So, I go to a country.

202

to lazy Chinese.

203

Ha ha. Video.

204

Yes, yes, yes, you watch the video.

205

maybe I have a little more money.

206

I think so.

207

because I don't have much money.

208

So I go to a new country.

209

I still want to I spent a lot of money.

210

the air ticket is expensive, and hotels are expensive.

211

I want to see more things in this country.

212

Yes, so. Uh, now.

213

I haven't really been in one country for a long time.

214

and travel while working.

215

not yet. Hmm.

216

But you also want to, right?

217

The life I want.

218

I think. I really want to.

219

I really want to.

220

Where to go?

221

Let me think.

222

I think. Maybe I will go to Japan or Taiwan.

223

because I think these two places are more comfortable.

224

So I'm thinking, can I work in Japan or Taiwan and travel.

225

Then, My boyfriend also likes Japan and Taiwan.

226

So it's possible that we do this.

227

So you can stay in this place longer.

228

and learn more about the culture of this place.

229

Yes, yes, yes, yes.

230

Yes. Because myself, I've tried this kind of living abroad twice before, in China.

231

Because it seems that many people like me, When you are working, people ask you, if you really have time in the future and you have money, what would you do?

232

if you don't need to work.

233

So at that time, I thought, wow, I want to travel and work.

234

I want to travel and work at the same time.

235

Well, then, Finally, I can do it.

236

Then I went to Yunnan, because it's very famous.

237

Dali, Yunnan, which is a famous place.

238

right? Then I went there.

239

I rented a house for a month.

240

and everything was ready.

241

Then I sat here I thought, what will I do tomorrow?

242

Why did I come here?

243

What should I do in this month?

244

There was no feeling of I can do this.

245

I can do anything.

246

I don't have that feeling.

247

Then suddenly I feel like I don't know what I should do.

248

It seems that If you haven't done this thing, or you haven't traveled, you think wow, it's beautiful there.

249

and then you go there, you feel like I need to have a purpose.

250

Goal, goal.

251

Uh-huh. or me.

252

Why do I want to come here?

253

to learn something.

254

or I really want to travel.

255

I'm curious about this place.

256

I think this might be better.

257

for your trip.

258

So When I traveled to another place for the second time, I thought I had a goal in this place.

259

Maybe when I do this, and then I can do something else.

260

Uh-huh. But now I don't seem to have a special desire.

261

Now I really want to read books.

262

Reading at home.

263

Yes, I think after traveling for a long time, um.

264

I really want to live an ordinary life.

265

Ha ha ha. Yes, yes, um.

266

Because I think ordinary life is also good.

267

I love my job and hobbies.

268

So, um, Yes.

269

I know now that I can't go for too long.

270

maybe four weeks is okay.

271

but if it's longer, Hmm, ah.

272

more than four weeks, I will feel a little too long and a little tired.

273

I think two weeks.

274

I think I'll want to go home after two weeks.

275

So, you said you traveled a lot last year, Have you traveled a lot this year?

276

Or do you not want to travel this year?

277

I want to travel.

278

I want to travel.

279

Yes, yes, yes, but not for a long time.

280

I'm going back to China for four weeks this year.

281

Yes, and then.

282

Are you going back to China?

283

During the New Year?

284

No, no, no, not during the New Year.

285

After the New Year.

286

Yes, I will go back to China for four weeks.

287

and then maybe go to another place, but I don't know where to go yet.

288

Hum. So, um, why do you want to I want to stay at home during this time.

289

and then I want to travel.

290

Why do you want to travel?

291

or do you think there are new things?

292

or do you think Um.

293

Why? I think um I will travel for a long time.

294

because I really like traveling.

295

Yes. So maybe every every three or four months, I feel like I don't want to be in Australia anymore.

296

I want to go to a new country.

297

I want to go to China to eat delicious food.

298

Yes, I want to go to Spain.

299

So I really like traveling.

300

But after traveling for too long, I feel like I haven't learned anything new.

301

or become a better person.

302

So no. I think for me now, it's just me.

303

I don't want to think.

304

I go to this place, and then I might have many new ideas.

305

and then I might become a new person.

306

No, it's not like that.

307

Yeah. Maybe you can't see it after traveling a lot, but it's in your brain.

308

Possibly, it's not that I go to this place and then I suddenly feel that I'm a new person now.

309

But maybe I go to many places, And then, ah.

310

I gradually become a new person.

311

But I will I don't think there is a place that can make me a new person.

312

Hmm. Well, before you travel, did you think I want to know about this place first, and then I know.

313

and then I go.

314

or just go without thinking?

315

and then I go.

316

and go to this place.

317

You talk to the people there.

318

and then you see, and then you learn about them.

319

I now find that if I know something about this country, such as the UK, um, Spain and France, maybe I know a little bit.

320

and Japan. because I study their language.

321

then I might know a little bit.

322

When I travel, I will find it very interesting.

323

because I can understand many things.

324

and I can speak their language.

325

Yes. But for some countries, I really don't know their language.

326

I don't know the stories of this country.

327

Yeah. So when I go, I still don't know.

328

So for some countries, if I I like it, I like their culture very much, I might learn their language.

329

or watch their movies.

330

But not all countries will I learn.

331

So for some countries, yes, I will learn something from them.

332

if I like it.

333

but I won't learn about many countries.

334

Yeah. I think to understand a country, if you know their language, how do you want to know a little bit of their language?

335

or you really study it seriously.

336

really study it seriously.

337

Not just a little bit.

338

No, no, I mean.

339

Hello, thank you.

340

Not this. I might spend five or ten years or ten years to learn it.

341

So it's not just a little bit.

342

If it's just a little bit, I can learn a little bit from all countries.

343

But I think learning a language is a serious and difficult thing.

344

So, um, it must be.

345

I really like this country.

346

and I really like their culture.

347

Then I said okay.

348

I will spend five years or ten years to learn it.

349

Yeah. So being serious is a long preparation.

350

and then seriously learn about this country.

351

Yes, yes, yes.

352

Yes yes yes.

353

Now I'm also learning Spanish.

354

very slowly.

355

And I think um, maybe like you, After learning this language, and learn about its culture.

356

Yes, I might want to go to this country.

357

it makes you feel like you have a connection with it.

358

Yes, there is a link.

359

Yes yes yes yes.

360

Yes, so. the country I most want to go to now is Japan and Spain.

361

And Spanish-speaking countries, Mexico, or Colombia.

362

I really want to go.

363

because I think I know a little bit about their culture.

364

If I don't know, I would feel I don't know about this country.

365

So I, um, I don't feel like I really want to go.

366

Yeah. I remember some I, uh, students who learn Chinese.

367

Because he studies Chinese, so he is interested in China.

368

So when he came to China for a trip, and we chatted.

370

he learned this language and he was really interested in China.

371

He really wanted to know a lot about China.

I think wow, such a trip is cool.

373

Häufige Aussprachefallen

Bei der Englischen Aussprache können bestimmte Wörter und Phrasen Schwierigkeiten bereiten. Achten Sie besonders auf die folgenden Ausdrücke, die in dem Video vorkommen:

„Country“ – Viele Lernende neigen dazu, die Vokale nicht deutlich auszusprechen. Üben Sie das Wort laut, um die richtige Aussprache zu finden.

Grammatik in diesem Video

Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:

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.
