Shadowing Practice: Your English Is Advanced If You Sound Like This - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creando lección...
1
Hello and welcome to another video with me.
2
Today we have a super duper special video.
3
I say that every video, but no, this one, this one is great.
4
You got to watch this one.
5
So here's the deal.
6
I saw a video called Copy My American Accent
7
and I watched the whole video and I loved the phrases that they used in the video.
8
I thought most of the phrases that were used in the video were super,
9
and I thought that they were the perfect phrases to practice your American pronunciation, your American English pronunciation.
10
However, I do think that the teacher
11
that made this video was not showing you how fast we really talk and how it's gonna sound sometimes.
12
He was giving you the slow version.
13
So I wanted to make my own version and use a lot of his phrases.
14
Some of them are my own phrases or I changed them.
15
and it's good for you to practice.
16
You don't have to talk this fast.
17
You can say it slower, but it's good to be able to understand when people say these phrases this fast, because you're gonna hear them this fast.
18
This is a video for your speaking.
19
This is not a video to test your listening comprehension.
20
That's great if you're doing that too, but that's not the point of this video.
21
So if you're watching this video and you're not practicing your speaking, what are you doing?
22
By the way, these phrases are very simple, okay?
23
new phrases that you didn't know.
24
That's great if you learn a new phrase, but I don't want you to be discouraged even if you think these phrases are too easy.
25
It's not about what do these phrases mean.
26
That's not what the video is about.
27
It's about practicing the pronunciation.
28
Alright, let's get into it.
29
Want to go for a walk?
30
walk.
31
So we do this thing where we cut off the air.
32
So you're not hearing walk, walk.
33
Sometimes we say, do you want to go for a walk?
34
Sometimes you'll hear the K.
35
Sometimes you won't.
36
Sometimes it's just want to go for a walk.
37
"Wah, wah." But it's not "wah." Listen to the difference between "wa" and "wa." Wa -wak.
38
Wa -wak.
39
If you can't hear the difference, you need to work on that because that is crucial.
40
We do this thing where we cut off the air in an abrupt way.
41
So it's not that just kind of fades out.
42
It's Bye.
43
Walk.
44
And that's how you know that even though we didn't say the K, you know the word is walk because of the way we abruptly cut off the air.
45
Walk.
46
Walk.
47
Want to go for a walk.
48
And also when you're practicing the pronunciation of phrases, it's good to break it up into chunks.
49
So I'm going to do that in this video.
50
I'm going to just say certain parts of it.
51
It's good to practice certain word combinations.
52
So want to go, want to go, want to go, go for a walk, go for a walk, for a walk, for a walk. For what?
53
Go for a walk?
54
Want to go for a walk?
55
This is how you're able to say an entire phrase by building it.
56
We're gonna be late.
57
We're gonna be late. Were.
58
We are. Were.
59
We're gonna be late.
60
We're gonna.
61
Gonna.
62
Gonna.
63
We're gonna be late.
64
Late.
65
Late.
66
This is the stop T.
67
We're not saying late.
68
We're saying late late late not lay we have lay
69
and we have late listen to the difference lay late lay late lay
70
late late we're gonna be late are you gonna go are you gonna go are you gonna go
71
so we don't end this word with a consonant
72
so it it kind of just does fade out go go it's not go it's go So are you going to go?
73
You gonna go?
74
Are you gonna go? Are you? Are you? Are you? Are you? Are you? Are you? Are you? Are you? Are you? Are you?
75
Are you gonna go?
76
You gonna go?
77
You're going to go?
78
Are you going to go?
79
When you hear, are you going to go?
80
You're probably thinking, we're saying like, are you going to go there?
81
Are you going to go to that place?
82
And yes, that is one meaning.
83
But a lot of times when we say, are you going to go?
84
It's in the context of like, imagine that there's a bunch of people waiting to use one bathroom
85
and the bathroom stall is open and you say to someone else, are you going to go?
86
Are you going to go?
87
It's like, are you going to take your turn?
88
Are you going to go forward?
89
Are you going to go ahead of me?
90
Are you going to go into the bathroom?
91
"Bathroom stall, are you gonna go?" You can go.
92
You can.
93
You can go.
94
You can.
95
You can go.
96
You can go.
97
Yeah, you can go.
98
So I'm saying you can go, but fast it's like, you can, you can, you can go.
99
We like take the can and go and smush it together and say, you can, you can go.
100
I'm barely saying can, like, you can, you can.
101
Are you gonna go?
102
You can go.
103
Yeah, you can go ahead of me.
104
Are you going to eat that?
105
Are you going to eat that?
106
Again, the stop T.
107
That, not that. That.
108
Are you going to eat that? That?
109
Are you going to eat that?
110
If you're not going to eat it, I'm going to eat it.
111
If you're not going to eat it, I'm going to eat it.
112
If you're not going to eat that, I'm going to eat that.
113
If you're not going to eat that, I'm going to eat that.
114
I'm going to, I'm going to eat it.
115
I'm going to eat it.
116
I'm going to eat it.
117
I'm going to eat that.
118
I'm gonna eat that.
119
I'm gonna.
120
So a lot of times I'm gonna is just I'm gonna.
121
So we started with, I am going to, and now we're at I'm gonna, I'm gonna.
122
And yes, everybody says this, like most people, like since I was a kid, my family says this, this is not like a regional thing or a certain dialect.
123
I mean, well, yeah, it's like American English dialect, but it's not like a minority dialect or something like this is how we talk when we talk fast.
124
I'm gonna, I'm gonna eat that.
125
It's gonna rain tomorrow.
126
It's gonna rain tomorrow.
127
It's gonna rain tomorrow.
128
What happened to the T?
129
It disappeared.
130
Notice how I'm not even saying tomorrow.
131
Sometimes we say it's gonna rain tomorrow.
132
It's gonna rain tomorrow.
133
But a lot of the time we don't say tomorrow.
134
We just say rain tomorrow.
135
Especially if there's a word in front of it that ends in an N like rain.
136
Rain tomorrow.
137
when we hear that, especially in the context that we're saying tomorrow, even though we don't hear the T, it's going to rain tomorrow.
138
It's gonna, it's gonna, it's gonna, it's gonna rain tomorrow.
139
It's gonna be sunny tomorrow.
140
It's gonna be sunny tomorrow.
141
Sunny tomorrow.
142
Sometimes it's more like a D.
143
Sunny tomorrow.
144
Sunny the, sunny tomorrow.
145
Rain tomorrow.
146
It's gonna be sunny tomorrow.
147
Do you want to play a game?
148
Do you want to play a game?
149
Juh.
150
"Joanna, Joanna, Joanna, do you want to?" Joanna.
151
Do you want to play a game?
152
Game?
153
We are pronouncing the M there.
154
Game?
155
Game?
156
I'm going to the dentist.
157
I'm going to the dentist.
158
Where's the two?
159
I'm going to the dentist.
160
I'm going to the, I'm going to, I'm going to the, going to the.
161
Yeah.
162
Sometimes we change that T for an N or a D.
163
Sometimes it sounds like an N, sometimes it sounds like a D.
164
The T loves to disappear or we love to take it out.
165
We like to get rid of our T's.
166
Going to the, you're going to hear this all the time.
167
Every time we say we're going to a place, we often say going to the, going to the, well, the dentist is not a place, person and we mean like the dentist's office.
168
Going to the dentist.
169
Going to the store.
170
Going to work.
171
Going to...
172
Going to work.
173
I'm going to work.
174
Yeah, I'm going to work.
175
I'm going to work.
176
She's planning to go to France.
177
She's planning to...
178
Planning to...
179
Planning to.
180
Planning to.
181
Planning to go to.
182
Go to.
183
Planning Nagoda planning to go to she's planning to go to france planning to go to the goda
184
i went for a walk in the neighborhood i went for
185
a walk for for not for for i went for a
186
walk i went for a walk i went for a walk in the neighborhood
187
so because we're saying in after walk we often will pronounce
188
that k we'll say walk in going for a walk in the neighborhood i'm going for a walk in
189
It flows better that way.
190
Walk in, walk in.
191
You can say I'm going for a walk in the neighborhood.
192
Some people say that.
193
Yeah.
194
But walk in kind of just feels easier, right?
195
So I'm going for a walk in the neighborhood.
196
I'm going for a walk in the neighborhood.
197
What are you going to make for lunch?
198
What are you gonna make for lunch? For lunch?
199
What are you gonna make?
200
What are you gonna make for lunch?
201
I have peanut butter and jelly.
202
I have peanut butter and jelly.
203
Peanut butter and jelly.
204
Peanut butter and.. no. Peanut butter and.
205
Peanut butter and.
206
Peanut butter and jelly.
207
Peanut butter and butter and a lot of times just say and instead of and probably most of the time.
208
I have peanut butter and jelly.
209
By the way, that was probably the most common sandwich I ate when I was a kid was peanut butter and jelly.
210
But I would eat it so much that I would get sick and tired of it.
211
I'm sick and tired of it.
212
Sick and tired.
213
Sick and tired.
214
Sick and tired.
215
I'm sick of it.
216
I'm tired of it.
217
I'm sick and tired of it. Be careful.
218
That's a bit of a strong phrase.
219
You know, you want to use it only in certain situations, be careful.
220
But generally we're quite dramatic in American English, especially nowadays.
221
We love to say that things are horrible, things are amazing, you know, it's either like the best thing ever, the worst thing ever.
222
We love to emphasize everything.
223
We love to say that we hate something.
224
It's not that strong.
225
It's just like, we don't like it.
226
I hate it.
227
Oh my God, I hate that.
228
It's not so serious.
229
If somebody says, "That's stupid, that's dumb," I noticed that some other people from other countries don't usually talk and think like this,
230
so they think that it's a bit rude or harsh, but this is just very normal for a lot of us in the US.
231
Not everybody.
232
But it doesn't mean that we're actually feeling that way.
233
It doesn't mean that our emotions are more intense, it just means that our language is.
234
very intense, but we just have, we're just like normal, like neutral, not even affected, but just being dramatic.
235
Where do you want us to put this?
236
Where do you want us?
237
Where do you want us?
238
Want us to put this?
239
Want us to put this?
240
Where do you want me to put this?
241
Where do you want me?
242
Where do you want me?
243
Where do you want me to put this?
244
I'm gonna get an Uber and go home.
245
I'm gonna get an Uber.
246
I'm gonna get an Uber.
247
Get an Uber.
248
Get an Uber.
249
Get an Uber.
250
I'm gonna get an Uber.
251
Yeah, I think I'm gonna get an Uber and go home.
252
Yeah, I think I'm gonna get an Uber and go home.
253
learning a language, sometimes a whole phrase can sound like one word or many words together can sound like one word.
254
Give us an update.
255
Can you give us an update?
256
Not day, day.
257
date day date, day, Date.
258
I'm going to take it to go.
259
Yeah, I'm going to take it to go.
260
Take it to go.
261
Take it to go.
262
Take it to go.
263
I'm going to get it to go.
264
Get it to go.
265
You can say either one.
266
You're ordering food.
267
They ask you, is it for here to go?
268
Are you going to eat here?
269
And you're going to say, I'm going to take it to go.
270
I'm gonna get it to go.
271
Why don't you take the trash out?
272
Why don't you take the trash out?
273
Why don't you take the trash out?
274
Why don't you take the trash out?
275
Why don't you?
276
Why don't you?
277
Why don't you?
278
Why don't you?
279
Why don't you?
280
Why don't you?
281
Yes, you're gonna hear that.
282
We do talk like that.
283
Why don't you take the trash out?
284
You can also say take out the trash.
285
Both are correct.
286
Take the trash out.
287
Take out the trash.
288
Razorbird, take out.
289
Don't you want to leave early?
290
Don't you want to leave early?
291
Don't you want to leave early?
292
Don't you want to?
293
Don't you want to?
294
Don't you?
295
Don't you?
296
Don't you want to leave early?
297
Leave early?
298
you that sounds weird it sounds like a robot we'd say what did you eat what did you what did you
299
What did you eat?
300
But you're also going to hear what'd you eat?
301
What'd you eat?
302
What'd you eat?
303
What'd you eat?
304
So you're going to hear what did you eat and what'd you eat?
305
So sometimes we say the U, sometimes we say the Y, but we always do the did with the U.
306
What'd you?
307
What'd you?
308
What did you eat for breakfast?
309
Hey, what'd you eat for breakfast?
310
Where'd you go last night?
311
Where'd you go?
312
Where'd you go?
313
Where did you go?
314
Where'd you go?
315
So we have like a couple different versions here, right?
316
Just like the last one.
317
Where did you go?
318
Where'd you go?
319
Where'd you go?
320
Where'd you go last night?
321
Where'd you go last night?
322
Last night?
323
Night?
324
Stop T.
325
Night?
326
Night?
327
All right, that's all I have for you today, folks.
328
I hope you enjoyed this.
329
Those were extremely useful phrases that we say all the time and how we really say it when we talk fast.
330
Or honestly, a lot of them is just how we say it when we talk normal.
331
It's not even like fast, it's just normal.
332
how you write it, sometimes it just sounds robotic.
333
And yeah, we might talk like that sometimes for emphasis or to clarify, but a lot of times we just do the connected speech.
334
So I hope you were following along and you were practicing your speaking alongside me.
335
If you were not speaking in this video, what are you doing?
336
You are self -sabotaging.
337
You need to be constantly imitating, imitating, imitating.
338
That is how you learn a language.
339
That is how you improve your speaking.
340
understand everything you say but i can't speak
341
and i always reply then imitate me imitate me that's what
342
you need to do you need to imitate me that's what i'm constantly doing
343
when i'm listening to my podcast in spanish
344
or portuguese i i'm like pausing the video not the video the podcast i pause it
345
and i will repeat a certain phrase that they just said
346
that i want to practice right
347
so for example i was listening to my podcast in portuguese and at the end she said it.
348
I just did this.
349
I went, and I'm like practicing the different parts of the phrase to then put it all together
350
and say it like she did.
351
And that is what you need to do, my friends.
352
That's what you need to do all the time.
353
It should be automatic.
354
If it's not automatic, you need to do it so much Alright, tell me in the comments which phrase was the most difficult for you to say,
355
or which phrase you thought was the craziest to pronounce.
356
And I will see you in the next video.
357
Bye -bye.

Lesson 2 - Speak English Clearly! The Imitation Technique
University StudentsBusiness English+2
Sobre esta lección
¿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.
