Création de la leçon...
1
I'm sorry, Marionette.
2
Lady Sandrone, I'm sorry to bother you, but we've got a major problem.
3
Azeroth?
4
You better hope that whatever you call a major problem is worth disturbing my morning peace.
5
I'm certainly sorry my lady.
6
Disappear before my patience runs out.
7
Yes my lady.
8
Polonia, assess the damage.
9
Energy circuits fried, Bane shaft warped, truly a brilliantly foolish way to destroy things way to destroy things.
10
Ugh.
11
Still need to request a budget for the extra components.
12
Thank you, Miss Sandrone.
13
I'll be especially careful with the equipment from now on.
14
Thanks to you, I still have to make a trip to that man's office this afternoon.
15
I'm really sorry, Lady Harbinger.
16
You haven't paid yet.
17
Another annoying one.
18
All right, I've got this.
19
You just stay out of it.
20
You don't even know how to apply for reimbursement, and you dare come out to eat by yourself?
21
From now on, put her bill on my tab.
22
It's all the same when it comes to reimbursement anyway.
23
Sorry.
24
Huh?
25
I didn't do this just to hear you apologize.
26
You're not angry with me?
27
Why?
28
Isn't this just who you are?
29
What sort of questions are these?
30
I've been running around all day and it's absolutely infuriating!
31
What are you smirking at?
32
Nothing.
33
Let's go eat together next time, Sandrone.
34
I like seeing you handle the reimbursements for me.
35
What?
36
Patalone, review this!
37
Also, why hasn't the funding for my last project been released yet?
38
It seems your research is always fraught with unexpected losses, my dear colleague.
39
A budget of this scale requires more data to justify its long-term value.
40
Value?
41
My technical research is the value!
42
Are your eyes really fixed only on next quarter's financial report?
43
The moray in hand is always more tangible, isn't it?
44
I'm sorry, Sandrone, but such caution is necessary.
45
Enough!
46
I don't want to hear the word sorry once more today!
47
Everything about today is utterly ruined.
48
Not at all how a birthday should feel.
49
What is it now?
50
Happy birthday, Sandroni!
51
I don't recall sending out any invitations.
52
And besides, all you'll find here is the smell of machine oil.
53
But I like the offering Zarlaccino brought for you.
54
Offering?
55
Never mind.
56
The water for the tea is too cool.
57
Polonia's heat sensor needs recalibration.
58
You're all just here to pick fights with me today, aren't you?
59
I must say, Rosalyn, your standards for technical details have certainly risen under Sandrone's influence.
60
Hmph.
61
As for me, I think the tea tastes perfectly fine today.
62
You do have taste, Arlechino.
63
And you, Sandrone?
64
You look a little weary.
65
Looks like I'll need extra rounds of data cleanup before bed.
66
Why not try my method?
67
Have a few more drinks.
68
Taste what I brought.
69
In Mondstadt, a birthday is meant to be enjoyed to the fullest.
70
Enjoy?
71
Is that like a command to be happy on your birthday?
72
Not exactly.
73
Perhaps it's more like a reason the world gives you to accept others' intentions without apology.
74
Hmm.
75
I can pick my own reasons for days like that.
76
Stop fussing!
77
If I don't drink soon, some Mondstadt native will start complaining about the temperature.
78
Cheers!
79
Can I have a birthday too?
80
Hmm, if you wish it you may have a birthday Most people cannot choose their birthdate,
81
but you can you are free I'm sorry Marionette the cake is not exactly what I had in mind
82
Why apologize it's already perfect You're right.
83
Happy birthday, Marionette.
84
Though it hardly matters whether it's sunny or snowing in Snezhnaya, it snows every day anyway.
85
At least the people here aren't always so annoying.
86
Sorry, Sanjone.
87
Next time I'll bring you a birthday gift too.
88
Or perhaps you'd prefer that I sing for you?
89
Forget what I just said.

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.
