1
And Adele, you do do that thing.
2
When you bring out an album,
3
you bring it out and you do the promo and you normally do a tour,
4
or in this case it was going to be the Vegas residency,
5
and then you vanish.
6
Yeah.
7
So, what are your plans for this vanishing and do you know how long you're going to be vanished for?
8
Well, I definitely will vanish, again.
9
But I'm trying to make a really conscious effort to stop being so anal with my privacy.
10
Like, I mean, saying that,
11
I'm still fucking private, though,
12
so I don't really know what it is,
13
but I'm trying to not always be two completely different versions of myself, because it's exhausting.
14
Like, you know, switching on and switching off and stuff like that.
15
So that's sort of why I'm sort of like,
16
I go out for dinner a bit more now,
17
even, which I know sounds pathetic.
18
But, like, what's the worst that could happen?
19
Nothing.
20
You know, so, yes, I will be disappearing in terms of my music,
21
but you might see a glimpse of me every now and then.
22
I won't be in complete hiding, you know, but...
23
Do you disappear to, like, recharge?
24
Yeah, and it takes me a while.
25
Yeah.
26
It really takes me a while.
27
Like, you know, it takes me about three years.
28
Yeah, and then I've got to like,
29
rev myself up to go into the studio.
30
And then it takes me a good year and a bit to finish an album.
31
But yeah, but like I said,
32
I would like to maybe have more children.
33
So it'd be up to them,
34
you know, because I only just now feel like I've caught up on my sleep from nine years ago
35
when I had my son.
36
You know, so we'll see, yeah.
37
Yeah, we'll see.
38
Thank you.

Pronunciación a tener en cuenta

El hablante usa 12 contracciones y formas reducidas, como I'm, I've, we'll. Dilas en su forma corta, tal como las oyes.

  • Los sonidos de “sh” y “zh”: conscious /ˈkɑn.ʃəs/, vanish /ˈvænɪʃ/

Sonidos difíciles para hispanohablantes:

  • s + consonante al inicio — sin añadir una “e” delante: switch /swɪt͡ʃ/, studio /ˈstudi.oʊ/
  • /v/ — no es /b/: los dientes tocan el labio inferior: privacy /ˈpɹaɪ.və.si/, vanish /ˈvænɪʃ/
  • /z/ — sonora, no /s/: exhaust /ɪɡˈzɔst/, residency /ˈɹɛzɪdənsi/

Cómo practicar con este vídeo

  1. Escucha el vídeo entero una vez sin hablar y anota las palabras que no conoces.
  2. Empieza a velocidad 0,75×, haz shadowing frase por frase y vuelve a la velocidad normal cuando te resulte fácil.
  3. Grábate y compara con el original, prestando atención a palabras como disappear, privacy, conscious.

¿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.
