Creando lección...
1
Do you sometimes struggle with a pronunciation of irregular verbs?
2
If yes, then you are going to love this practice.
3
Because today we are going to practice the pronunciation of common irregular verbs according to sounds.
4
So we're going to take a group of irregular verbs that have the same sound and we're going to practice them together.
5
So you can brand the pronunciation into your mouth and into your brain.
6
And if anything, it's just going to be a fun pronunciation grammar practice.

13
And of course, subscribe to my channel if you're watching this on YouTube or listening to it on your favorite podcast platform.
14
All right, let's get started.
15
The first group of irregular verbs with the sound eh.
16
Eh as in red.
17
The first one is say.
18
Say, said, said.
19
Just follow me.
20
Say, said, said.
21
Read, read, read.
22
Read, read, read.
23
Next one.
24
Lead, led, led.
25
Lead, led, led.
26
Next one.
27
Feed, fed.
28
Fed, feed, fed, fed.
29
Just repeat after me.
30
This is how you remember it.
31
Meet, met, met.
32
Meet, met, met.
33
Very good.
34
Let's read a few sentences together.
35
She said she read the report, but she led the meeting without notes.
36
She said she read the report, but she led the meeting without notes.
37
He fed the data into the system and met with the team right after.
38
He fed the data into the system and met with a team right after.
39
He fed the data into the system and met with the team right after.
40
Good.
41
That was a good practice of the e sound.
42
Now let's practice the aw as in daughter
43
or sometimes I teach it as the aw as in father for words like bought,
44
thought and fought.
45
Ready?
46
Buy, bought, bought.
47
So you can round your lips for this or just drop it completely.
48
Bought.
49
More of an ah as in father.
50
Buy, bought, bought.
51
O-U-G-H.
52
That's the spelling pattern.
53
Buy, bought, bought.
54
Think, thought, thought.
55
Say it out loud with me.
56
This is the only way to make it work just say
57
it out loud catch caught caught teach taught taught bring
58
brought brought very good ah ah caught caught taught taught brought brought he brought the notes
59
and bought everyone coffee before the talk he brought the notes and bought everyone coffee before the talk.
60
Good.
61
The next sound we're going to practice with irregular verbs is the a as in cup.
62
It's called the stressed schwa.
63
A schwa is a very neutral sound.
64
The cup is a bit more open.
65
The tongue is flat, slightly arched,
66
jaw drops a bit a cup cup come came come
67
come came come run ran run run
68
ran run become became become become became become
69
so here we see a different pattern if before the The examples were the infinitive was different and then past simple,
70
past participle were the same, lead, led, led.
71
Here, the infinitive is different from the past simple.
72
Come, came, and then going back to come with a cup sound.
73
So again, become, became, become.
74
Begin, began, begun.
75
Here it's different.
76
We have the i sound.
77
Begin, began, begun.
78
Cup, begun, begun, the past participle.
79
drink, drink, drunk, drink, drink, drunk.
80
Let's practice this.
81
I have run this meeting so many times it feels automatic.
82
I've run, run.
83
I've run this meeting so many times I feel it's automatic.
84
I've run, run, run.
85
I've run this meeting so many times it feels automatic.
86
She has become the kind speaker people actually listen to.
87
She has become, she has become, she has become, she has become the kind of speaker people actually listen to.
88
Good.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
