Shadowing-Übung: Native English Conversation with Captions & Explanation - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

Hello!

Anna here from englishlikeanative .co .uk.

I've got a fantastic listening exercise for you today.

You're about to hear a very natural, unplanned, unscripted, unedited conversation between two native English speakers.

After you hear the conversation, I will go back and deep dive into some of the vocabulary

that came up so that you can expand your vocabulary as well as improve your listening skills

so without further ado let's go i broke a bone um in fact i've broken lots of bones

but do you remember this is a test now

because i've told you about this before

but do you remember my biggest break i do i think

i could pass the test i believe you had a spiral fracture of your femur Wow okay I'm surprised

because normally you don't listen to anything I tell you

but yeah well done I spiral fractured my femur do you remember

which leg it was no it was my left gone 50 50 on

that you could have just tried when outright failure from you just gave up yeah

so I was I must have been like 10

or 11 years old I was still at primary school

so hadn't moved on to high school i was giving someone a piggyback in the playground

and i was the horse and i said how fast do you want to go

and she said as fast as you can go so i was like yay

and it was i think it was autumn

because we had like muddy do you remember like like playgrounds

they'd always have these like sunken bits where maybe they hadn't done the foundation properly right yeah like sunken concrete

and so yeah and then they'd always get full of mud

and then when it rained they'd just like be little muddy puddles

and then this muddy puddle was full of leaves

but it started to dry slightly

so I'm running around as fast as I can with this big girl on my back

and uh and my foot caught some leaves and I slipped and went like into full scissor splits

kapow and because of the weight of this girl on my back I was quite flexible

but she kind of made me go straight down all the

way full splits oh really um could you do full splits at

that point I because that's a lot yeah for somebody

that can't normally do it if I was warmed up

but an at a push completely at a push but

that was too much of a push it was too quick with weight and And so, yeah, I got this really complex fracture all the way down my femur.

I remember going down, and then I blacked out.

And then I remember coming to, and everyone stood around me.

And I pulled my leg in front of me and tried to get up.

And then my leg felt like it was just full of concrete.

It was like a dead weight just hanging off my body.

And the teacher was completely unsympathetic and just came up and was like, oh, stop being a hypochondriac.

Pull yourself together.

Pull yourself together she dragged me up off the floor

and I tried to put weight on it

and again it felt like a dead weight and it I just collapsed

and I started crying and whinging

and just saying please just leave me here just leave me

I was being very melodramatic I'll wait until home time

and it was raining it's just like don't be

so ridiculous you've got to come in it's raining and

so my friend left me the other teacher went to get another teacher

and they had my arms over the shoulders

and dragged me in doing wonders for your injury it could

have made it like it could have splintered the bone

so we were very lucky yeah that was quite a significant break

and saw me in traction in the hospital for months what does

that mean in traction is when you're uh you know

when you've got like the leg wrapped up

and then it's it's held up it's like suspended like like

those cartoons where people get run over by trucks yeah

and they're just there in the beds like like puppets yeah absolutely

so I was stuck in bed and I couldn't roll over

because my leg was in traction

and I got really bad bed sores oh it was really

uncomfortable especially like 11 years old I was going insane yeah

but then when I got into a wheelchair amazing

and on crutches I was like speedy Gonzales on you couldn't stop me

so it it really stands out as one of my most

significant my most significant accidents I may have had many I broke my toe

while I was with you didn't I yeah that was weird

that we had two small children at the time we had nappy bin bags

and you put the nappies in this bin

and just keep on stuffing them in until it's completely full

and then you tie it off and you pull it out

and it's big like a big snake of pooey nappies yeah yeah and And so you then said, I'll take it downstairs, and I said,

I'm sure I probably very gentlemanly offered you some help.

No, no. And I said, well, be careful.

And you're like, oh, I'll trip over this.

And I'm like, well, carry it properly.

And the next thing I hear, dun, dun, dun, ah, my toe.

Well, I knew instantly because my, when I fell, my legs went out to the side.

And with our little banisters going down, that's what they're called, isn't it?

The banisters going down the side, the rail.

The bannister is the bit on the top it's the I

guess the rails the rails yeah probably in the balance the foot closest to the banister

and the rails had caught like two or three toes had caught

and obviously I'd kept going but my toes were caught

and I heard the crack I heard it and I felt it

and then when I looked at my foot as I came to a stop I looked at it

and my toe was just

pointing out a right angle to my foot i thought yeah that's definitely broken

and it was so painful i always think that in those situations

when someone's dislocated something

or broken something to a point where it's really um sitting on the wrong angle

that you would just you're in pain anyway you just grab it

and snap it back into place

but i couldn't let anyone come anywhere near me i thought do not touch it this is horrendous even

when i got to the hospital i was like don't touch my toe i think you have to do

100

that within the first like five seconds before the swelling sets like

101

if you if you cut your hand

102

and you've got skin hanging off the first thing i do is just tear it off

103

because if you leave it on it's it's like perpetual longer term just pain

104

and discomfort it's better to just get it off right let's now deep dive into some of

105

that vocabulary so let's go through again and I will stop

106

when there's something to explain let's go I broke a bone um in fact I've broken lots of bones

107

but do you remember this is a test now

108

because I've told you about this before

109

but do you remember my biggest break I do I think

110

I could pass the test I believe you had a spiral fracture of your femur.

111

Wow, okay.

112

I'm surprised because normally you don't listen to anything I tell you.

113

But yeah, well done.

114

I spiral fractured my femur.

115

Do you remember which leg it was?

116

No. Fracture.

117

I talk about fracturing my femur.

118

The femur is the biggest thigh bone and I fractured it.

119

A fracture is like a crack through a structure, but the structure remains in place

120

so here we're talking about bones i cracked the bone

121

but the bone didn't change shape everything held together just like

122

if you knock an eggshell the eggshell might fracture you might see a crack appear in the eggshell

123

but the eggshell may still hold together it doesn't necessarily come apart they would need a little more pressure for

124

that so i was lucky i fractured my femur

125

but it stayed in place it was my left i'd have gone 50 50 on

126

that couldn't i you could have just tried

127

when we were outright failure from you just gave up here nick said i could have gone 50 50 on

128

that what he meant was there was a 50 chance

129

that he would have been right no matter what he had guessed left

130

or right it was one of them

131

so he was saying 50 50 i could have been right

132

so i should have just tried i should have just guessed left

133

or right and i might have been correct yeah

134

so I was I must have been like 10

135

or 11 years old I was still at primary school

136

so hadn't moved on to high school I was giving someone

137

a piggyback in the playground piggyback a piggyback is the act of having someone jump up on your back

138

and they normally put their legs around your waist

139

and they put their arms around your shoulders or around your neck

140

and you hold them and you walk them

141

so that's a piggyback to give someone a piggyback

142

and i was the horse and i said how fast do you want to go

143

and she said as fast as you can go

144

so i was like and it was i think it was autumn

145

because we had like muddy do you remember like like playgrounds

146

they'd always have these like sunken bits where maybe they hadn't

147

done the foundation properly right yeah like sunken concrete poor work

148

and so yeah and then they'd always get full of mud

149

and then when it rained they'd just like be little muddy puddles

150

and then he

151

and nick said poor workmanship poor workmanship is something that's being crafted in a bad way so

152

if i haven't done a good job at making whatever it

153

is i'm making then you can say that's poor workmanship that shows poor workmanship.

154

Like if I'm plastering a wall and then painting it, and I don't allow the plaster to dry properly before throwing the paint on it, it's going to look bad.

155

It's not going to be a good job.

156

And you say, the paint's a bit shoddy.

157

The plaster all looks a little bit rushed.

158

That's poor workmanship.

159

So when time and effort have not been put into creating something, that results in poor workmanship.

160

This muddy puddle was full of leaves, but it started to dry slightly.

161

So I'm running around as fast as I can with this big girl on my back.

162

And my foot caught some leaves and I slipped and went into full scissor splits.

163

Kapow!

164

Scissor splits now the splits is when you separate your legs out

165

and they go in opposite directions like flat against the floor

166

your legs go fully flat against the floor in opposite directions there are two types of splits

167

that you can do scissor splits is where one leg goes forwards

168

and one leg goes backwards just like a pair of scissors

169

but the other splits are called box splits that's where your legs both go out to the sides

170

so one out on the left one out on the right I did the scissor splits

171

and because of the weight of this girl on my back i was quite flexible

172

but she kind of made me go straight down all the way to be flexible to be flexible just means

173

that you can bend very well so

174

if you can stand up straight with your knees locked

175

and bend down to touch the floor with the palms of

176

your hands then you are probably quite flexible fall splits oh really Could you do full splits at that point?

177

Because that's a lot for somebody that can't normally do it.

178

So I could if I was warmed up.

179

I mentioned being warmed up.

180

We warm up before working out or before performing.

181

So we will often warm up our voice or warm up our bodies.

182

It's just the act of doing some movement to get the blood flowing

183

and to get everything ready to perform or to work out

184

but an at a push completely at a push but

185

that was too much of a push it was too quick

186

here i said at a push this is a phrase

187

that means if i really have to

188

or at the very extremes of my ability

189

so i can lift 50 pounds at a push

190

if you really pushed me to my limits if i really was trying very, very hard, I could lift 52 pounds.

191

So I might be able to go that extra little bit further if I have to, or if I'm being strongly encouraged to,

192

or I'm really trying to motivate myself to go beyond my own limits with weight.

193

And so, yeah, I got this really complex fracture all the way down my femur.

194

I remember going down and then I blacked out.

195

Here I use the phrasal verb black out I said I blacked out

196

so if you black out it means that you faint

197

or become unconscious now this is not the same as going to sleep although

198

if you're extremely tired

199

or maybe you've had a few drinks then you might say oh I completely blacked out last night

200

but it is quite extreme so this is usually reserved for

201

when you have an accident if you're hitting the head or something shocks you so much that you suddenly fall unconscious.

202

This is blacking out to black out.

203

And then I remember coming to and everyone stood around me.

204

After that, I said, when I came to,

205

to come to in this context is when you wake up after blacking out or after fainting.

206

So you're unconscious for a little while and you finally open your eyes

207

and you're back in the room you have come to

208

and i pulled my leg in front of me

209

and tried to get up

210

and then my leg felt like it was just full of

211

concrete it was like a dead weight just hanging off my

212

body i describe my leg here as a dead weight

213

when we talk about dead weights we just mean a weight

214

or the weight of something that is not moving

215

so like an inert object imagine

216

if you were carrying a huge sack full of potatoes that's a dead weight it's just a weight

217

that doesn't help you at all

218

which is different to picking up a child of the same weight they move

219

and they're more dynamic and so they're slightly easier to lift

220

because they kind of help you by gripping on

221

and adjusting their body and and being as light as a feather in their mind

222

but if something is a dead weight then it doesn't help you at all

223

and in this case my leg was like cut off my brain had said don't move this leg

224

so it's my brain had stopped my muscles from responding

225

and my leg was just hanging off my body

226

and it was really heavy so my leg was a dead weight

227

and the teacher was completely unsympathetic and just came up

228

and was like oh stop being a hypochondriac pull yourself together

229

pull yourself together she dragged me up off the floor

230

and i tried to put weight on it

231

and again it felt like a dead weight

232

and it i just collapsed i described myself here as a

233

hypochondriac a hypochondriac is somebody who is extremely worried about their health.

234

And they're usually the kinds of people who go, oh, no, look, I've got a cut on my finger.

235

Do you think I need to see a doctor?

236

It might be infected.

237

I might get septicemia.

238

I might die.

239

So a hypochondriac is someone who is excessively concerned and worried about their own health.

240

And Nick goes on to say, pull yourself together.

241

This is a command that you would give someone to say, stop panicking or stop being emotional.

242

You need to be calm and you need to think straight and you need to stop reacting in such an emotional way.

243

So if I am talking to my friend and she starts getting really upset and emotional and behaving in an erratic way,

244

I might have to say to her, look, pull yourself together.

245

It's not that bad.

246

They don't have tea and coffee.

247

That's OK.

248

You don't need to get emotional.

249

Pull yourself together it's not the kind of thing

250

that you should use loosely because it can upset people

251

if it's a sensitive moment if they're genuinely upset about something

252

that deserves to be upset about telling them to pull themselves

253

together can seem like you don't care I would only use

254

that if you think someone is being melodramatic I'll explain

255

that in a minute

256

or over the top not really thinking logically they're just letting the emotions get the better of them

257

and I started crying and whinging and just saying, please just leave me here.

258

Just leave me.

259

I was being very melodramatic.

260

Okay, here I say whinging and I use the word melodramatic.

261

To whinge is to complain or cry in often a consistent and annoying, irritating way.

262

Oh, oh, mum, I'm hungry.

263

Mum, my tummy hurts.

264

I'm really hungry.

265

I'm really hungry.

266

That's whinging.

267

Stop whinging.

268

I was whinging about the fact that my leg hurt and I didn't want to go inside, which was, you know, valid.

269

But to be melodramatic is to be overly dramatic, to be over the top in your reaction oh my leg

270

is falling off leave me here don't touch me that's a little bit melodramatic okay

271

so I was being over the top in my reaction

272

and I was whinging I'll wait until home time

273

and it was raining it's just like don't be

274

so ridiculous you've got to come in it's raining and

275

so my friend left me the other teacher went to get another teacher

276

and they had my arms over shoulders

277

and dragged me in doing wonders for your injury it could

278

have made it like it could have splintered the bone

279

so we were very lucky here nick said

280

that would do wonders for your leg

281

so to do wonders for this is used in a sarcastic way here

282

but you can use it in a in a way that's not sarcastic

283

so to do wonders for something means that it almost works miracles on the thing It does a fantastic job.

284

So for example, a good diet

285

and a morning walk can do wonders for your health or a daily walk will do wonders for your mood.

286

A weekly date night will do wonders for your relationship.

287

So to do wonders for just means it will be very beneficial.

288

It will be very good for that thing.

289

But we do like a bit of sarcasm here in the UK and that's part of our humor.

290

We like to say things that just are the complete opposite.

291

So dragging my leg, dragging my whole body with my broken leg, my spiral fracture, all the way into the school, up to the head office,

292

was not beneficial for my leg.

293

It was the worst thing to do.

294

And it could have resulted in much worse damage

295

and long -term issues

296

but nick used it sarcastically said oh they dragged you in with a spiral fracture in your femur

297

that would have done wonders for your leg he was being sarcastic ha ha ha yeah

298

that was quite a significant break and saw me in traction now here i said

299

that this saw me in traction now here obviously saw is

300

the past tense of see here i'm i'm using it to mean the result of this was me in traction

301

so i might say committing a crime saw me in prison

302

for 20 years taking this course saw me achieve my goals

303

and getting a job okay

304

so we can use saw to mean resulted in this isn't a very common usage

305

but this was a very off the cuff unplanned conversation

306

and it was used in conversation in the hospital for months what does

307

that mean in traction is

308

when you're uh you know you've got like the leg wrapped up

309

and then it's it's held up it's like suspended like like

310

those cartoons where people get run over by trucks here nick

311

used a phrasal verb run over he said uh the characters who get run over by trucks

312

so to get run over is to be hit by a moving vehicle

313

so it runs you over or it runs over you

314

but we say you have been run over

315

that person was run over i always say to my children

316

don't run out into the road you might get run over

317

be careful you might get hit by a car yeah

318

and they're just there in the beds like like puppets yeah absolutely

319

so i was stuck in bed and i couldn't roll over

320

because my leg was in traction um i got really bad

321

bed sores oh it was really uncomfortable especially like 11 years old i was going insane yeah yeah

322

but then when i got into a wheelchair amazing

323

and on crutches i was like speedy gonzalez i refer to a character here speedy gonzalez now i'm assuming

324

that everyone knows who this character is, but you may not.

325

Speedy Gonzalez is a cartoon character from when I was a child back in the 80s who could run really fast.

326

That's why he was called Speedy Gonzalez.

327

And so this little mouse is a character that comes up in regular conversation when I'm talking about being fast.

328

I'll say, oh, I'm like Speedy Gonzalez running all over the place.

329

So to run really, really fast.

330

That's a pop culture reference.

331

You couldn't stop me.

332

So it really stands out as one of my most significant.

333

I use the phrasal verb here, stands out.

334

If something stands out, then it's a prominent thing.

335

So I'm talking about memories and I say this memory stands out in my mind

336

so I'm saying this memory is prominent I remember this particular incident

337

because it was so monumental it had such an impact on my life it was very painful

338

so I really remember it this moment stands out for me

339

this was a standout moment my most significant accidents I may have had many I broke my toe

340

while I was with you didn't I yeah that was weird

341

that we had two small children at the time we had nappy bin bags

342

and you put the nappies in this bin here this might be a really obvious one

343

but because american english is quite dominant

344

internationally i thought i should point it out a nappy in american english is a diaper

345

so this is a nappy we don't use diaper at all

346

that we that's not a word that we use here we know what it is

347

but we don't use it in the uk

348

and just keep on stuffing them in until it's completely full

349

and then you tie it off and you pull it out

350

and it's big like a big snake of pooey nappies yeah

351

and um tie off so to tie off means obviously to tie a knot in something

352

but specifically to fasten something or hold something usually at its end

353

so we tied off the bin

354

so this was a long bin full of nappies nappies nappies

355

that we'd stuff down when you fill it up you get the end

356

and you tie it off so that each end has a knot in it

357

and then we put it in the big bin outside for the bin men to collect

358

and so you then said i'll take it downstairs

359

and i say i'm sure i probably very gentlemanly offered you

360

some help here nick to use the word gentlemanly i in a gentlemanly way I offered to carry the bag for you.

361

Now to do something gentlemanly, it means you do it in a way that is in the manner of a gentleman.

362

So you behave like a gentleman would, which would be to be kind and considerate and protective and helpful, particularly towards women.

363

So he was offering to help me because I'm a woman.

364

And he was saying, I'll do that horrible job, that slightly risky, dangerous job and carrying

365

that smelly bag of nappies down the stairs

366

because i can see you might fall

367

and hurt yourself i'll do it for you darling obviously i declined

368

and broke my toe no no i said well be careful

369

and you're like oh i'll trip over this i'm like we'll

370

carry it properly the next thing i hear i have a toe well i knew instantly

371

because my when i fell my legs went out to the side

372

and with our little bannisters going down that's what they're called

373

isn't it the bannisters going down the side the rail the

374

bannister is the bit on the top it's the i guess

375

the rails the rails yeah probably in the bannister the foot closest to the bannister

376

and the rails had caught like two or three toes had caught

377

and obviously i'd kept going but my toes were caught

378

and i heard the crack i heard it and i felt it

379

and then when i looked at my foot as i came to a stop

380

i looked at it

381

and my toe was just pointing out a right angle to

382

my foot all right here i mentioned the word right angle

383

if something is at a right angle then it's at 90 degrees that's a right angle.

384

So my toe was sticking out at 90 degrees from where it should have been.

385

It was at a right angle.

386

I was like, yeah, that's definitely broken.

387

And it was so painful.

388

I always think that in those situations, when someone's dislocated something or broken something to a point where it's really sitting on the wrong angle,

389

that you would just, you're in pain anyway, you just grab it and snap it back into place.

390

But I couldn't let anyone come anywhere near me.

391

I was like, do not touch it.

392

This is horrendous.

393

Even when I got to the hospital, I was like, don't touch my toe i think you have to do

394

that within the first like five seconds before the swelling sets like

395

if you here i use the phrasal verb set in so

396

when something sets in it begins and we usually use this um

397

when talking about health so talking about swelling or disease

398

or a substance might set in rot in your house

399

if you have a leak then damp might set in

400

or dry rot might set in so it's when something begins

401

and starts to spread so

402

when you have an injury it will slowly start to spread

403

until it really balloons up everything will become inflamed as those processes begin

404

so the swelling sets in if you cut your hand

405

and you've got skin hanging off the first thing i do is just tear it off

406

because if you leave it on it's it's like

407

perpetual longer term just pain

408

and discomfort it's better to just get it off well i hope you enjoyed that

Grammatik in diesem Video

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

Struktur	Im Video
Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist	i've broken · i've told · have made
Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut	was warmed · was stuck · were caught
Relativsätze who / which + Satz – eine Zusatzinformation über eine Person oder Sache	somebody who is · people who go · someone who is

Aussprache, auf die du achten solltest

Der Sprecher verwendet 117 Kurzformen und abgeschwächte Formen, zum Beispiel I'm, don't, you're. Sprich sie in der kurzen Form, so wie du sie hörst.

Die „th“-Laute: thigh /θaɪ/, feather /ˈfɛðə/
Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: traction /ˈtɹæk.ʃən/, unconscious /ˌʌnˈkɑnʃəs/, beneficial /ˌbɛn.ɪˈfɪʃ.əl/, rush /ɹʌʃ/, shock /ʃɔk/
Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, ridiculous /ɹɪˈdɪk.jə.ləs/, uncomfortable /ʌnˈkʌm.fɚ.tə.bl̩/, beneficial /ˌbɛn.ɪˈfɪʃ.əl/, necessarily /ˌnɛs.əˈsɛɹ.ə.li/

Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:

/w/ — mit runden Lippen, nicht wie das deutsche „w“ (/v/): swell /swɛl/, wheelchair /ˈ(h)wilt͡ʃɛɹ/, waist /weɪst/, backward /ˈbækwɚd/, whinge /(h)wɪnd͡ʒ/
Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: drag /dɹæɡ/, playground /ˈpleɪɡɹaʊnd/, verb /vɝb/, phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/, bend /bɛnd/
/æ/ — offener als „ä“: fracture /ˈfɹæk.t͡ʃʰəː/, angle /ˈæŋ.ɡəl/, traction /ˈtɹæk.ʃən/, drag /dɹæɡ/, crack /kɹæk/

So übst du mit diesem Video

Höre dir das ganze Video einmal an, ohne zu sprechen, und notiere die Wörter, die du nicht kennst.
Beginne mit 0,75-facher Geschwindigkeit, sprich Satz für Satz nach und wechsle zur normalen Geschwindigkeit, sobald es leichtfällt.
Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie fracture, bone, rail.

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.
