Hello and welcome to an episode of Easy French.
2
Today we are in the 10th arrondissement of Paris,
3
one of the new young and young quartiers of the capital.
4
We are going to ask the Parisians why they decided to go to Paris.
5
Let's go!
6
Do you live in Paris?
7
No!
8
Do you live in Paris?
9
No, no. Would you like to live in Paris?
10
Yes, absolutely.
11
And why?
12
I've been living for a few months for my studies.
13
I really like the cultural work.
14
There are so many things happening all the time.
15
And mainly for that.
16
Where do you live now?
17
In Switzerland.
18
Oh, ok, ok.
19
Very good.
20
It's more fun, the Swiss?
21
It depends on you, but it's more fun than Paris.
22
Do you live in Paris?
23
Yes, I live in Paris.
24
Why do you live in Paris?
25
Because I work here.
26
And I like this village.
27
Why?
28
I find it particularly beautiful.
29
Whatever the seasons and the day,
30
I find it always exceptional lighting.
31
Most of the buildings are beautiful and then the areas are completely different.
32
And I think that we travel from one place to another.
33
Do you live in Paris?
34
Yeah, I live in Paris.
35
Yeah, in which area?
36
I live in the 15th.
37
Ok, why do you live in Paris and not in another city?
38
I live in Paris because there is a cultural density and...
39
It's very Parisian to laugh like that for a while.
40
And we also say hmmm...
41
I don't know, because it's inspiring,
42
because people are nice, because there's always something to do every day.
43
You're in the interviewer, you're in the street where there's no one,
44
it's great, it's 15 hours,
45
we're hungry, we can eat, it's cool.
46
Where do you live?
47
There!
48
In the street.
49
You've always lived in Paris?
50
No, it's been 7 years And you have been here directly?
51
A little complicated but we're going to say yes Why Paris isn't another city?
52
For the work and the other city Do you want to live in Paris?
53
Yes What would your dream be?
54
The fifth I'm in the Luxembourg.
55
Why?
56
For the garden, the library,
57
the cinema, all the small cinema of the quartier of the Vème,
58
the charme of this quartier, its auteur also.
59
I love the Vème.
60
Do you live in Paris?
61
Yes, I live in Paris.
62
Ok, where do you live in Paris?
63
I live in the 8th arrondissement.
64

66
I do my studies between the United States.
67
I'm back to Berkjag.
68
I live in the 9th century.
69
Why Paris and not another city?
70
Because I always live in Paris and in all cases I love the capital.
71
There is everything in the proximity.
72
Even when I was looking for jobs,
73
I never had to get out.
74
So it's pretty easy to live in Paris.
75
You live in Paris?
76
Yes.
77
You are good to know French with that.
78
It's a typical Parisian, very nice.
79
Why are you living in Paris and not in another city?
80
Just as we talked about it earlier,
81
we are coincés in Paris but we dream of leaving a year.
82
But it's difficult, we have children,
83
we have jobs, we have jobs, we have couples.
84
And you want to leave?
85
I would like to leave Bordeaux.
86
Why Bordeaux?
87
Because I'm attached to the south-west,
88
to the south-west, and the way that is much cooler there
89
and that would be a way to have.. that would be a way to have...
90
.. to have a Parisian, for example.
91
Do you live in Paris?
92
Absolutely.
93
Paris 12th.
94
Entre Gare de Lyon and Bastille.
95
Why Paris and not another city?
96
I'm a Parisian in the blood.
97
I've always been to Paris.
98
I don't really have a family ailleurs.
99
And yet I'd like to go out but I don't know where to go.
100
I don't know So I'm staying.
101
I'm fine but I don't have any other points for the moment.
102
I live in the 14th arrondissement.
103

You always have lived to Paris?
105
No. I'm provincial, I'm born in Picardie and I live in Paris since I work.
106
Ok.
107
And since when?
108
So since 20 years.
109
So more precisely, 40 years.
110
Ok, so you just had to go to Paris for work or there were other reasons?
111
For work, but for the other reasons,
112
I could continue my studies being at Paris, it was much easier.
113
Do you live in Paris?
114
Yes.
115
Yes, since long?
116
Yes, since my birth.
117
Ok, where is that?

119
Ok, you've always lived in Paris.
120
Yes.
121
Why is Paris not another city?
122
It's the most beautiful city in the world, you know.
123
Yeah, but why is it so beautiful?
124
What is it so beautiful in Paris?
125
For having visited many cities,
126
really, having done the tour of the world, Paris, it's magic.
127
Maybe not the Parisian, but the city of Paris is a good view.
128
What motivated you to travel to Paris?
129
Because I just started a new master's degree in a commerce school,
130
so I had to travel.
131
I'm from Bordeaux, at the base.
132
I feel more at home in French culture than in French culture.
133
So I like to go to the cinema,
134
to go to the concert.
135
Question piège ?
136
No!
137
The raclette is French or Swiss?
138
Swiss.
139
No, no, no, no, no. The fondue, I'm not sure.
140
But the raclette is Swiss.
141
Do you think other cities you want?
142
In France?
143
Yes, but for the moment I'm fine here.
144
Ok.
145
You work here?
146
Yes.
147
What do you do in the living room?
148
I work for an television show.
149
You live in which neighborhood?
150
I live in the Rive Gauche.
151
Okay.
152
Plus that?
153
Plus the neighborhood of the Invalides,
154
which is a ministry, which is much more bourgeois and less amusing than this neighborhood.
155
And you have always lived in Paris?
156
I've been traveling a lot,
157
but I've been elevated to Paris.
158
Paris.
159
And for you, the city of your dream would have been...?
160
Not in France, I think.
161
I don't know if I'm bored, but I can't.
162
There are other cities that you make dream?
163
There are no cities, but there are other cities in France,
164
like Bourgogne, Bretagne, I'm not going to go to Paris.
165
I'm going to stay at Paris and leave.
166
You work here?
167
I work in the 10th arrondissement of Paris.
168
What about what?
169
I'm working with a network of entrepreneurs,
170
who are engaged to help the younger companies.
171
I'm putting in the link between entrepreneurs to develop their vocation as a chef of the company.
172
And to create an enterprise,
173
it's more practical to be at Paris?
174
Yes and no, because there are entrepreneurs everywhere in France.
175
We are international, so we have people everywhere,
176
not only in France but abroad.
177
What we see is that there are entrepreneurs everywhere,
178
there are a creation of jobs everywhere.
179
So in reality, yes, it is better when we are in a digital company,
180
especially in Paris, but it is not necessarily necessary.
181
There are also champions of digital abroad in France.
182
You have always been in the 14th arrondissement?
183
No, I have lived first the Paris Parisian vanliyte,
184
Gonesse, then the 15th arrondissement,
185
which is a few pieces,
186
then the 12th arrondissement and the 14th arrondissement,
187
which is 20 years old.
188

¿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.
