1
Hey what's up, it's Alex.
2
Today I'd like to look at the connected readings in a
3
short passage where somebody is asking somebody else to buy things at the store.
4
Let's take a look.
5
Hey, could you stop by the store while you're out? Could ya? Could ya?
6
In some other connected reading videos, I've talked about could you being occasionally okay to pronounce as could you could you this works
7
if you're reading text aloud or speaking in a more formal context
8
but in completely rapid relaxed speech we always say could you could you stop by the store
9
while you're out stop by the P
10
and B sounds connect together stop by stop by the store
11
while you're out now that T at the end of out is kind of special.
12
While you're out, while you're out, while you're out, I could choose to release the T and say out,
13
while you're out, with a very, very quiet T at the end of a sentence.
14
Or I could just make it into a glottal stop.
15
While you're out, while you're out, could you get a, let's see,
16
could you again we have could jump could you get a kid now
17
when we're looking for words in English
18
when we don't really know what we're gonna say we say oh
19
and if the word before it ended in a T we often connect that T to the sound could Could you get...
20
Could you get... Could you get...
21
Let's see.
22
Now that T could be a glottal stop, or it could be a very weak T before an S.
23
Let's see.
24
Let's see.
25
Now that T could be a glottal stop, or it could be a very weak T before an S.
26
Let's see.
27
But the important thing is to connect the S sounds together.
28
Let's see.
29
Let's see.
30
Eggs, rice, a couple ears of corn.
31
Ears of corn becomes ears of corn ears of corn, ears of corn, and see if they have any,
32
and see, that D in and completely gets removed,
33
and see, and see if they have any good looking strawberries.
34
If they don't, it's fine.
35
If they don't, it's fine.
36
Now, if I speak slowly, I say don't, it's fine.
37
But when I speak a little faster, I might say, if they don't, it's fine, and connect that T to its.
38
If I speak really fast, I might say, if they don't, it's fine, don't, it's fine, and completely remove the T.
39
If they don't, it's fine, don't worry about it.
40
Now here, don't worry, before a wha sound, I always remove the T.
41
Don't worry about it, don't worry about it.
42
Here, the T in about turns into a tap, about it.
43
about it about it now the t in it turns into a glottal stop so we have tap it glottal stop
44
don't worry about it about it thanks hey could you stop by the store while you're out could you get
45
let's see eggs rice a couple ears of corn and see
46
if they have any good looking strawberries if they don't it's fine don't worry about it thanks

¿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.
