19
It was discovered by Europeans.
20
They kept the French language when they discovered Quebec.
21
They changed their language with time, but we decided to keep the French from the old time, which is now called the Québécois, but it's the real French from the beginning of the time.
22
In Quebec, there is the Charlevoix, which is beautiful, near the river, near the river, past Quebec, where the river is very large, where it's mountainous, where the nature is very wild.

33
Because the people who stayed in Quebec were a little less sophisticated than the French who continued to evolve there.
34
We were more like...
35
We discovered, we expanded the territories, but we decided to keep the language just with time and so that it's different, so that we're unique, different from French in the sense of unique to ourselves.
36
Your accent is a little different from the Québec of Montreal?
37

¿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.
