Pratique du Shadowing: 6 TRUCCHI per parlare come un ITALIANO - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo

Création de la leçon...
1
Molti studenti parlano bene l'italiano, o comunque se la cavano, ma si esprimono in maniera innaturale,
2
artificiale, e questo è un problema molto comune.
3
Oggi ti voglio parlare di alcune strategie molto pratiche che ti aiuteranno a parlare italiano in maniera più naturale,
4
più idiomatica e più espressiva, come un vero italiano.
5
I want you to realize certain phenomena typical of speaking, aspects that differ from the way you speak from the way you speak.
6
I'm David and this is Podcast Italian, a channel for who learns or learns Italian.

Come sempre poi ho preparato un PDF che riassume tutto quello che dico e integra le informazioni con altri esempi.

10
Incominciamo!
11
Dai un'occhiata a questo dialogo.
12
Ma sai quali ingredienti servono per il tiramisù?
13
Allora, per il tiramisù servono caffè, mascarpone, pavesini.
14
Scusa, ma non ci vogliono i savoiardi?
15
Beh, sono due varianti diverse.
16
Sì, ma i savoiardi si inzuppano meglio, no?
17
Ma, insomma, va a gusti.
18
Nel senso, i pavesini non sono male.
19
Cioè, come dire, hanno una consistenza migliore.
20
Forse hai ragione.
21
Vabbè, comunque quando lo facciamo?
22
In this dialogue there are a lot of expressions typical of the spoken word, like ma.. allora.. excuse me, in the sense...
23
Spesso these expressions are called ingiustamente riempitivine,
24
filler words, and it's just because they don't serve only to riempire the silence, but have a very practical function.
25
They help you listen to orient yourself to understand what we're saying,
26
what we're saying, What do we do with the words that we are using?
27
For example, the first MA signifies that I'm not going to ask a question.
28
Allora...
29
Introduce a explanation.
30
Excuse me, it can use to interrupt a person in a way of being a court.
31
Excuse me, but I don't want to ask?
32
MA and INSOMMA, also INSIEME, MA INSOMMA, can indicate that we are not at all.
33
But, in some way, it's a taste.
34
In the sense, and, so, they can give an example of what we've said, or to say it in another way.
35
In the sense, I povesiline are not bad, they are, like to say, they have a better consistency.
36
And, well, anyway, they use to change the argument.
37
Well, anyway, when do we do it?
38
These are called signals discourses.
39
They are a bit like signals, but that don't lead us to the street,
40
but in a conversation, we use it continuously and we don't even know.
41
They might be a video apart, maybe?
42
Let me know in the comments if you want.
43
But you start to observe how the mother language uses these words and expressions. Have you heard?
44
The teacher in the top has been able to do it.
45
Really?
46
It was bad.
47
Because you didn't know it?
48
It was a lot of time.
49
No, I'm really going to go out of the clouds.
50
Well, I'm not sure if I've seen it in a bad way.
51
Ah, yes, this one doesn't piove.
52
I'm really important to speak language in a language language.
53
I've talked about it recently.
54
I'm talking about that someone has a little bit more informal than to say it's dead.
55
And instead of saying that this one doesn't have any doubt, it's more interesting and natural to say that this one doesn't piove.
56
Insomma, i modi di dire ti aiutano a parlare in una maniera più espressiva e un po' più interessante, più italiana.
57
Se impari l'italiano, ovviamente.
58
Ora, il problema dei modi di dire, ma in generale di tutte queste strategie del parlato, è che da studenti non sappiamo quando le usiamo,
59
se le stiamo usando bene, in maniera idiomatica, innaturale, oppure in una maniera un po' forzata, un po' artificiale.
60
And to understand it, we need to do feedback from a mother language.
61
Even better if this mother language is an instructor or a tutor paid for criticising you.
62
And if you're looking for an instructor or a mother language of Italian, there's no place to do it.
63
Su Italki puoi fare lezioni individuali e personalizzate su ciò che ti interessa di più, argomenti come quelli di questo video,
64
ma anche semplice conversazione, puoi fare lezioni di grammatica, di pronuncia, di scrittura, prepararti per un esame linguistico, quello che vuoi.
65
Puoi prenotare lezioni nei momenti che ti sono più comodi,
66
puoi fare lezioni direttamente dal divano col cellulare e in mutande, even if I don't recommend it to do it, but you understand what I mean.
67
It's very comfortable, more comfortable, to go into the real world to search an teacher.
68
Who comes from home in these times?
69
3. On your own topic, you can find a teacher in your budget.
70
With more experience, less experience, tutor informal or professional teaching, with more qualifications, whatever you want.
71
There are a lot of teachers and I'm sure you'll find what you do for you.
72
It's the 2025 time of the Objektive, and a lesson that you recommend is a week on italki.
73
You'll see in a few months the difference that you will talk regularly.

75
Okay, this strategy doesn't only talk about the spoken word, ma è comunque un concetto che tutti dovrebbero conoscere.
76
Sto parlando delle collocazioni, parola orrenda che di fatto significa combinazioni di parole.
77
Le collocazioni sono simili in un certo senso ai modi di dire, ma anche diverse.
78
I modi di dire sono rigidi e hanno un significato a volte oscuro.
79
Cioè, se sai che significa tirare le cuoia bene, ma se non lo sai è difficile capirlo dalle singole parole.
80
Mentre le collocazioni sono più trasparenti.
81
Una collocazione è scattare una foto, per esempio, o semplicemente fare una foto.
82
Fai attenzione, non diciamo prendere come in inglese, spagnolo o francese, diciamo però prendere tempo, ma si può anche perdere tempo.
83
Oppure prendere freddo, prendere una malattia, ma si può anche contrarre una malattia, which is also more elegant,
84
in this case there are more formal and more informal and colloquial.
85
These are then more of verbs and names, but they can be different combinations.
86
We can talk about error, clamor, or a mossa azzardata .
87
We can talk about words or work so, verb and verb.
88
And then a word can be mixed in a natural way with more words.
89
For this there are also the dictionaries of colloctions.
90
The sole can be a little, or a little, or a little, or a little.
91
The dolor can be simply a little, but also a little, or a little.
92
The lancinant, for example, is an adjective that is used almost only with the dolor, and the cocent is practically only with the sole.
93
In the language there are words that are practically used only in certain combinations, with other words.
94
And then, often, the collocages change from one language to another.
95
In English, you take a shower.
96
In French, on prend une douche.
97
In Italian, you take a shower.
98
And so, we need to get to know these differences, because we often speak in a way natural,
99
because we literally translate the collocages of our language into the language we are learning.
100
Anche questo punto non riguarda solo il parlato, ma evitare questo errore comune ti permetterà di esprimerti in maniera molto più naturale.
101
Il pronome personale soggetto, quindi io, tu, lui, o lei, eccetera, in genere in italiano non si dice, si omette.
102
Se lo diciamo, lo facciamo per dare alla nostra frase un significato più specifico, più particolare,
103
e quindi dirò ho finito di scrivere video per youtube e
104
non io ho finito di scrivere se dico io ho finito è un po come se
105
And then I'll say I've finished writing a video for YouTube, and not I've finished writing.
106
If I say I've finished, it's a bit like if you say it's what I'm talking about, what I'm talking about.
107
It has a more specific meaning.
108
I can use it for example to change the topic, for example, from you to you.
109
I've finished working.
110
You do what you do?
111
I've finished writing a video.
112
10 minutes I've done.
113
Here, the two I and the you are creating a contrast, changing argument, passing from me to you.
114
I do this.
115
You do this.
116
I do this.
117
In these cases, the pronoun serves, but in most cases, it is not used.
118
The subject of the phrase is essentially understood by the verb.
119
I do this.
120
I do this.
121
I do this.
122
but also from the context, regarding the third person.
123
You know what?
124
Giovanni is married.
125
Eh?
126
But he didn't already married.
127
He didn't know that he was divorced?
128
The person who's a nice person, interpretive by me, says that he didn't already married, which is natural.
129
The pronoun subject simply is omiss, because from the context you understand that he's talking about Giovanni.
130
You can tell when Italian uses the pronoun subject, but also when they don't use them.
131
Now, the Italian will kill me, but I'm convinced of what I recommend you.
132
I'm afraid of saying it, but I recommend in Italian to use in conversation the period of the informal period.
133
I refer to the construction of the building as...
134
...se I knew I did, I did, instead of if I knew I would have done.
135
Su, italiani, scatenatevi nei commenti!
136
Ora, mi aspetto già una valanga di italiani indignati che scrivono Ma è sbagliato!
137
Non insegnare queste cose!
138
Non è italiano!
139
Shhh!
140
La verità è questa.
141
Costruzioni del genere sono comunissime nel parlato.
142
Se non lo erano, non le insegnavo, dopo tutto.
143
Esistono dall'alba dei tempi, da secoli e secoli di storia dell'italiano, anche letterario.
144
3. We understand that things that we say are not always just or wrong,
145
but sometimes they are not adequate to a certain context.
146
A phrase like if I did, I did, I'm fine in a relaxed and informal conversation, but I'm fine in a working meeting, for example.
147
But how does this period work?
148
If you have a intermediate level or advanced in Italian, you will know that there are different types of standard period,
149
but there are two that are usually called the possibility and the reality, which are formed by a sentence with the sentence, the sentence that has the SE,
150
and one with the conditional, which indicates not the condition, but the consequence.
151
Why not complicating things?
152
dimenticateli, no, non dimenticateli perché sono comunque importanti,
153
ma nel periodo ipotetico informale e colloquiale puoi usare l'imperfetto dell'indicativo.
154
E dunque, se mi avessi portato il vino l'avremmo aperto a cena diventa se mi portavi il vino lo aprivamo a cena,
155
se fossi arrivato in orario non avremmo perso il volo diventa se arrivavi in orario non perdevamo il volo.
156
Cogliù!
157
Questa costruzione è molto più rapida e semplice a livello di tempi verbali, which is very useful for those who learn the language.
158
And I'm not an Italian correct, it's an Italian informal.
159
And this difference is fundamental.
160
And if you're still, dear Italian indign, I don't know, you know that he used pure Dante, which usually is a good way to put it in a way.
161
Now, I don't want to say that using the standard period, which you've learned with fatigue and sweat, is in an adequate conversation per carità,
162
puoi senz'altro dire se mi avessi portato il vino lo avremmo aperto a cena.
163
È solo un po' più formale.
164
Ma magari vuoi esserlo formale, magari vuoi metterti la camicia al posto della t-shirt.
165
Fai come meglio credi.
166
Concludiamo con uno dei miei argomenti preferiti, le frasi marcate, cioè frasi che hanno un ordine degli elementi particolare.
167
Vedi, l'ordine standard degli elementi in italiano è soggetto, verbo, oggetto o complemento.
168
Luca ha read a book, Giovanni goes to Rome.
169
But in the parlato things are not always so.
170
Have you seen the video that I sent you?
171
That one on the increase of the barbapietola?
172
No, that one on the podcast Italian.
173
Eh, no, that one I saw.
174
I imagine.
175
And that one on the barbapietola?
176
No, I saw one another.
177
Eh, com'è che si chiamava?
178
Quello su perché ci dimentichiamo sempre le cose?
179
Sì, quello visto.
180
In questo dialogo abbiamo un sacco di strutture particolari tipiche del parlato.
181
Innanzitutto all'inizio abbiamo l'hai visto il video, poi l'hai visto il video che ti ho mandato?
182
Potrei dire hai visto il video, ma l'hai visto il video è molto comune nel parlato.
183
Ti faccio altri esempi di questa struttura.
184
We could say, I've done a job, I've read the book, I've gone to Germany, or I've gone to Germany, like a question.
185
In all these cases, we have a pronoun that's redonding, that anticipa an element that's left at the end of the sentence almost isolated,
186
even in the intonation.
187
I've gone to Germany, I've read the book.
188
There's also a little pause, if you notice.
189
C'è poi un'altra struttura particolare, quello non l'ho visto.
190
Eh no, quello non l'ho visto.
191
Quello non l'ho visto.
192
Qui invece l'oggetto o il complemento viene prima del verbo,
193
quello, ed è poi ripreso da un pronome, l, in l'ho visto.
194
Ecco, in questo caso è proprio obbligatorio mettere quell'L, cioè non posso dire quello ho visto,
195
A meno di non dirlo con un'intonazione specifica come Quello ho visto, che implica un contrasto.
196
Ho visto quello e non un altro, come nell'ultima frase del dialogo.
197
Sì, quello ho visto.
198
Quello l'ho visto, invece, significa qualcosa come Per quanto riguarda quello, l'ho visto.
199
Insomma, ti dice di che cosa sto parlando, introduce il tema.
200
È un po' come usare il pronome soggetto.
201
Io l'ho fatto, cioè quanto a me l'ho fatto.
202
QUELLO L'HO VISTO, QUANTO A QUELLO L'HO VISTO, IL LIBRO L'HO LETTO, IO, QUELLO O IL LIBRO SONO IL TEMA,
203
SI CHIAMA PROPRIO TEMA NELLA LINGUISTICA, LA COSA DI CUI STIAMO PARLANDO, LA COSA SU CUI DICIAMO QUALCOSA.
204
Insomma, hanno una funzione specifica, non sono solo spostamenti caotici e casuali di parole.
205
Ora, le frasi marcate sono complicate, non posso di certo spiegare come funzionano in due minuti.
206
I've talked about in a previous video that I leave in the description, but also in one of my videos of my advanced course in Italy in Italian,
207
which unies the learning of Italian to the learning of Italian culture.
208
It's a job, but.. link in the description, you'll see.
209
I've heard of foreigners use these phrases marked, apart from foreigners who live in Italy for a long time, but we Italians really use them in the same way?
210
I've just used one.
211
For concluding, I recommend you, when you listen to Italian talk, to make sure to these aspects, to notice them, to make sure.
212
Maybe take only one or two of these, which I've talked about in this video, and focus on your attention to how they are used in conversations.
213
For example, only on the signals, only on the signals, and you can say, well, in the sense, listen to it and try to understand what functions they have,
214
they are not for a chance.
215
But then, you have to put these things in practice.
216
This is a marked phrase.
217
For this, go to italki and pre-notes your first lesson.
218
And remember that if you want a PDF
219
that you can take all the information of the video and integrate with other examples, you can link in the description or this code QR code.
220
If you think, after this video, you're thinking, ''David, I'm not talking about it, but in a way, I'm talking about it,
221
but I'm talking about it.'' Well, this video...
222
.. is for you.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
