Shadowing Practice: BEFORE SUNSET || Car Conversation Scene - Learn English Speaking with Video

I was thinking, for me it's better I don't romanticize things as much anymore.

I was suffering so much all the time.

I still have lots of dreams, but they're not in regard to my love life.

It doesn't make me sad, it's just the way it is.

Is that why you're in a relationship with somebody who's never around?

Yes, obviously, I can't deal with the day-to-day life of a relationship.

Yeah, we have, you know, this exciting time together, and then he leaves and I miss him, but at least I'm not dying inside.

When someone is always around me, I'm like suffocating.

No, wait.

You just said that you need to love and be loved.

Yeah, but when I do, it quickly makes me nauseous.

It's a disaster.

I mean, I'm really happy only when I'm on my own.

Even being alone, it's better than sitting next to a lover and feeling lonely.

It's not so easy for me to be all romantic.

You start off that way, and after you've been screwed over a few times, you forget about all your delusional ideas, ideas and you just take what comes into your life.

That's not even true.

I haven't been screwed over.

I've just had too many blah relationships.

They weren't mean.

They cared for me, but there were no real connection or excitement.

At least not from my side.

God, I'm sorry.

Is it really that bad?

It's not, right?

You know, it's not even that.

I was fine until I read your fucking book.

It stirred It reminded me how genuinely romantic I was, how I had so much hope in things.

And now it's like, I don't believe in anything that relates to love.

I don't feel things for people anymore.

In a way, I put all my romanticism into that one night and I was never able to feel all this again.

Like, somehow this night took things away from me and I expressed them to you and you took them with you.

It made me feel cold, like if love wasn't for me.

I don't believe that.

You know what?

Reality and love are almost contradictory for me.

It's funny.

Every single of my exes, then they're married.

Men go out with me, we break up, and then they get married.

And later they call me to thank me for teaching them what love is.

Oh, God.

And that I taught them to care and respect women.

Wait.

I think I'm one of those guys.

You know, I want to kill them!

Why didn't they ask me to marry them?

I would have said no, but at least they could have asked!

But it's my fault.

I know it's my fault because I never felt it was the right man.

Never!

But what does it mean, the right man, the love of your life?

The concept is absurd.

The idea that we can only be complete with another person is evil, right?

Can I talk?

You know, I guess I've been heartbroken too many times, and then I recovered.

So now, you know, from the start, I make no effort, because I know it's not gonna work out.

I know it's not gonna work out.

You can't do that.

You can't live your life trying to avoid pain at the expensive...

Okay, you know what?

Lose our words.

I've gotta get away from you.

Stop the car.

I wanna get out.

No, no, no, no. Don't get out.

Keep talking.

Don't touch me, you know, I want to get on a cab.

Monsieur, arrêtez-vous.

Non, non, c'est bon, au feu, là.

Non, non, non, non, non, keep going.

¿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.
