1
So, Rachel, did you grow up in New Zealand?
2
Yes, I did.
3
Nice.
4
So I grew up in the States,
5
and I thought we would talk about how life is so much different for teens today than it was for our generation.
6
Okay, I think we can do that.
7
So obviously the first thing is that when we were young,
8
we didn't have like smartphones and things like that.
9
We didn't have the internet, actually.
10
We didn't have internet, we didn't have email.
11
Yeah.
12
So I remember if you wanted to meet a friend,
13
you would have to plan it way in advance.
14
Yes.
15
You would have to wait by the phone.
16
Remember that, waiting by the phone?
17
You couldn't go outside because if you were waiting for the call,
18
you had to wait at your house until you got the call.
19
We didn't even have an answering machine.
20
Wow.
21
Oh, my gosh.
22
That's really old school.
23
We used to have to wait by the phone.
24
Yeah.
25
Actually, I used to spend every afternoon after school on the phone with my friends.
26
After we got home from school,
27
we would call each other and discuss the day's events, I suppose.
28
Yeah, you had so much to share.
29
That's true.
30
So my teens these days,
31
they come home from school,
32
they get on their phone,
33
and they text all their friends.
34
Right.
35
And they do it all day.
36
Like it's constant, constant chatter.
37
I think maybe that's why I'm not so much into texting.
38
it's just too much work you know
39
like I like to build up the mystery of not knowing what somebody did for a
40
while um yeah but i was thinking about it recently
41
and i think they it was similar because we used to telephone a lot
42
but then we did have to wait a long time before
43
finding the news true yeah i read once uh about how a lot of the movie plots from like the 60s,
44
70s, and 80s wouldn't work today because of cell phones.
45
Yes.
46
Because a lot of the storyline...
47
They're about missed communication.
48
Right, right, yeah.
49
Yes, and somebody arrived and somebody else didn't.
50
So another one I think that's really obvious is bottled water.
51
So when I grew up,
52
there's no such thing as bottled water.
53
Like you had to get water from a faucet, right?
54
Yes.
55
Yeah, and I think I remember when they first started coming out with bottled water,
56
I think I was about 14 or 15.
57
It was a bit later in New Zealand, I think.
58
Yeah.
59
Yeah.
60
So that was crazy.
61
I mean, do you remember what it was like when people were first drinking bottled water?
62
How strange it seemed at the time?
63
Everyone was like, why don't you get it from the tap?
64
The water's very clean in New Zealand.
65
So the tap water is clean.
66
So there was really no reason.
67
Yeah.
68
Like if you come from a temperate climate,
69
it was never a problem, right? because you just,
70
I'm from a temperate climate as well.
71
And so the water doesn't really have problems with bacteria
72
or things like that so it's always clean it used to be clean
73
so in New Zealand it's probably still clean the rivers used to be clean
74
but they're not
75
so clean now oh really even in New Zealand yeah oh really shocking it's a bit sad
76
so how about other things that we used to do
77
when we were kids like one thing is i think compared
78
to kids today is we used to spend a lot of
79
time outside actually like our parents would not allow you to
80
stay inside you had to be outside you had to go
81
outside right it's the opposite today yeah make them stay inside
82
and won't let them go outside why is that right what's the rationale for why they should stay inside Safety.
83
Safety.
84
Yeah.
85
We didn't used to hear about all of the kidnappings and abuse in the media.
86
Right.
87
So people weren't afraid of it.
88
Yeah.
89
And the crazy thing is I think...
90
We hear about it now.
91
It's actually safer now, right?
92
Yeah, it's safer now.
93
Even in the States where they hear about this,
94
I think statistics say that it's actually safer than it was before.
95
Yes.
96
But the perception is there.
97
Although that could be because the children are all inside.
98
That's true.
99
That's a difficult one to figure out.
100
But I don't think it's that unsafe to play outside.
101
I think it's better for kids socially,
102
for their bodies, for their development to play outside if they can.
103
I agree.
104
I totally agree.
105
Kids definitely should be outside.
106
And kids should be bored.
107
I think that's one of the things that kids miss out on is boredom.
108
They're never bored now.
109
They've always got a screen to look at.
110
Right.
111
So, you know, obviously when we were young,
112
you had nothing to do.
113
So you had to go outside and find something tree yeah exactly oh that's
114
so fun i thought of something um we used to have
115
video watching parties oh yeah it's only one person in 10 had a video machine right
116
so we would all go to the video store together and
117
and argue over which videos to watch and choose some horror movies
118
and some comedies and then go to some one person's house and or watch them all together i do remember that Yeah,
119
it was a big thing.
120
No Netflix binging, but having a video party at someone's house was a big deal.
121
And I think movies were a much bigger deal back then because we didn't have screen time.
122
There was no such thing as screen time.
123
You had your TV, but that was not the same thing.
124
Your parents wouldn't let you watch that much TV anyway.
125
And so a movie was a big deal.
126
It was more of a big deal.
127
You didn't just watch it on Netflix when you were bored.
128
Yeah, but a kid these days,
129
it's just, you know, they're on their screen all the time.
130
It's just more digital pixels.
131
Yeah, different times.

Warum das Sprechen mit diesem Video üben?

In diesem Video diskutieren Rachel und ein weiterer Gesprächspartner über das Leben in den 80er Jahren und vergleichen es mit der heutigen Jugend. Diese Art des Dialogs bietet Ihnen die Möglichkeit, Englisch sprechen zu üben und sich mit alltäglichen Themen auseinanderzusetzen, die für viele Lernende relevant sind. Durch das Anhören von authentischen Gesprächen können Sie nicht nur Ihr Hörverständnis verbessern, sondern auch Ihre Sprachfähigkeit erweitern. Das Nachahmen (oder auch shadow speak) der Sprechweise der Gesprächspartner ermöglicht es Ihnen, die dazugehörende Englische Aussprache zu verbessern, während Sie gleichzeitig das Gefühl für die natürliche Sprachmelodie entwickeln.

Grammatik & Ausdrücke im Kontext

In dem Video werden mehrere interessante grammatische Strukturen und Ausdrücke verwendet, die Ihnen beim Englisch lernen mit YouTube helfen können:

  • „Did you grow up…?“ - Diese Frageform hilft, über die eigene Kindheit zu sprechen. Üben Sie ähnliche Fragen über Ihre Vergangenheit.
  • „I used to…“ - Diese Struktur zeigt an, dass etwas in der Vergangenheit regelmäßig oder gewohnt war, aber jetzt nicht mehr so ist. Beispiel: „I used to call my friends every day.”
  • „Remember that…?“ - Eine nützliche Ausdrucksweise, um sich an Vergangenes zu erinnern und den Dialog zu beleben. Versuchen Sie, ähnliche Erinnerungen in Ihrer Konversation zu teilen.
  • „That’s true.“ - Eine einfache und effektive Möglichkeit, um Zustimmung auszudrücken. Nutzen Sie solche Ausdrücke, um Ihre Meinung zu bekräftigen.

Häufige Aussprachefallen

Beim Sprechen Englisch ist die Aussprache oft eine Herausforderung. In diesem Video gibt es einige Wörter und Phrasen, die für Lernende knifflig sein könnten:

  • „bottled water“ – Achten Sie auf die genaue Aussprache der Kombination dieser Wörter; die Betonung kann die Verständlichkeit beeinflussen.
  • „missed communication“ – Hier sollten die Konsonanten klar und deutlich ausgesprochen werden, um Missverständnisse zu vermeiden.
  • „constant chatter“ – Üben Sie die Verbindung der Laute, um die Flüssigkeit Ihrer Sprache zu erhöhen. Die Aussprache vieler Wörter kann durch shadow speak verbessert werden.

Indem Sie diese Ausdrücke und Aussprachetricks regelmäßig üben, können Sie nicht nur Ihr Englisch sprechen üben, sondern auch Ihre gesamte Kommunikationsfähigkeit in der Sprache erheblich steigern. Nutzen Sie das Video häufig, um die Aspekte der Sprache aktiv zu vertiefen!

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.
