45
Australia is a country, but it's also a continent.
46

47
But that's not the word.
48
When we talk about politics, we refer to it as a Australia is a number of states.
49
and they are linked together.
50
It's like a country.
51
It's another word for country.
52
Let's pass this one.
53
Okay.
54
So this one's difficult.
55
If you have a lot of things and then you take the things away, what are the things that are still there?
56
That was a very hard description.
57
I'm going to pass that one.
58
That's quite hard.
59
Oh, if you have flour, sometimes you have flour that makes the cake go from small large.
60
Sometimes when you have children, you help them grow into an adult.
61
That is also called parents something their children good parents something with their children.
62
It's like educate, but it's a more holistic approach where you are helping them become good people.

We can relax.
69
Well, I'm so sorry, Renata.
70
We only got four out of ten.
71
Yeah, it was pretty difficult.
72
It was difficult.
73
I was struggling.
74
So I can't imagine how you must have felt.
75
I think that's on me.
76
I think this one, it's my fault.
77
So until next time, $20.
78
Until next time.
79
So we're going to go through the words that we got.
80
You did such a fantastic job with effort.
81
So that was something that was physically hard or draining.
82
Well done.
83
Decide was number two.
84
which is to choose something to make a decision.
85
Excellent work.
86
I use the example of a pie with whole, which means something is full, like you said, or whole.
87
sense was number four, so that was the taste and the smell.
88
But it could also mean like a sixth sense, there's something unknowingness, but that's a bit more difficult.
89
Fifth, I should have said, It's at the beginning of a country's anthem.
90
It's called a So the fifth one was nation.
91
Yeah, it was hard.
92
That one was tricky.
93
This was also tricky.
94
Number six was remain.
95
So I used an arbitrary example,
96
which means a random example of having things and taking them away and the things that stayed, they remain.
97
But I'm sure there's a much better description to that.
98
There was also number seven was raise.
99
So you can raise your children.
100
There's also flour that help raise cakes.
101
Yes, that was tricky.
102
you?
103
So the price of something, the amount something costs, So number nine was season.
104
So what might you have said for season?
105
What would have been a good clue to help you get this word?
106
So maybe describe how there's like four different types of season.
107
So maybe you can say, There's like four different types and people have their own favorite ones.
108
And there's like different climates for each one.
109
Maybe that's going to be a good one.
110
So I could have said what summer, winter, autumn, spring season.
111
Excellent.
112
Number 10 is tax.
113
So what do you think you would have said for tax?
114
Maybe you can say it's something that people should pay.
115
as a part of the law, maybe that would be a good hint.
116
Yeah, and if they weren't getting it, you could say at the end of financial year, you have to pay something to the government.
117
Well, well done anyway.
118

Welcome to this engaging English learning practice session! In this lesson, you will participate in a fun game called “Word Up” where you'll have the opportunity to enhance your vocabulary and improve your speaking skills. The format involves guessing words based on clues, which makes it not just educational but also enjoyable. You'll practice thinking on your feet, which is essential for developing fluency. By actively participating in this game, you will not only expand your vocabulary but also learn to express thoughts more clearly and confidently during conversations.

  • Continent: A large continuous mass of land conventionally regarded as a collective region.
  • Unconventional: Not based on or conforming to what is generally done or believed.

Practice Tips

To maximize your learning from this session, consider incorporating shadowspeak techniques into your practice. This means listening attentively and repeating phrases or words immediately after hearing them. The speed of the game might be quick, so focus on shadow speech where you mimic the speaker’s intonation and energy. This technique can help you feel more comfortable with rapid speech patterns and refine your pronunciation. Try to speak along or after the game leader to build your oral skills in real-time.

Engaging with this content through a shadowing site can enhance your overall experience, where you can explore more similar exercises. Practice by recording yourself speaking the key vocabulary from the game, then play it back and compare it with the original audio. Look for areas to improve clarity and expression. Remember, consistent english speaking practice is key; the more you engage with the material, the more fluent you'll become!

¿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.
