- Hey! Hey Pear! Pear!
2
- Oh man. Best purchase ever.
3
I've finally got some peace and quiet.
4
OW!
5
What do you want?
6
- Erm... I don't even remember anymore.
7
- Why can't you just be quiet for one minute?
8
- Quiet? That's no fun.
9
Pineapple: Well there's plenty of fun in quiet.
10
- Um... did you hear something?
11
Pineapple: I said quiet can be plenty of fun.
12
- Yeah, something like "Sprite cans be emptying guns." - Wha--? No way, it wasn't me!
13
I didn't empty a gun at anybody!
14
Dude was already dead when I got there, I swear!
15
- There he is! - Take him down.
16
- Huagh! Pineapple: That's not what I said.
17
I said "Quiet can be plenty of fun." - Yeah, that's what I've been saying.
18
So can we all just settle down and-- Oh...what is that?
19
Ohhh...oooh...
20
- It's called A-S-M-R.
21
Autonomous sensory meridian response.
22
I play these sounds to help you relax.
23
- Oh, it's working.
24
Can you do any more?
25
Oh, yeah. Now that hit the spot.
26
- Oh, oh! I wanna try ABCR.
27
- Not a problem, Orange.
28
The key to ASMR...
29
...is to take your favorite little sounds...
30
...and get them real close to the microphone so-- - How's this? - Argh! Dude!
31
- - Try something simple, Orange, like... blowing into the microphone.
32
See? - Oh, yeah. Now that's what I'm talking about.
33
- Okay. Ho-ho-ho-ho! Boom goes the "dyna-mic." - That's it! Where did those headphones go?
34
- Okay-okay-okay-okay. Let me try again.
35
I'm gonna get this. Back to the drawing board.
36
- Yes. Orange, that's it.
37
- Which one do you like the most?
38
The smelly burp or random yelping?
39
- No, no. The pencil.
40
The writing. Keep writing ideas.
41
The sound the pencil is making is perfect.
42
- Alright. If you say so.
43
Hmm... - Okay, good. I found my headph-- Whoa, hey. That's pretty good.
44
I didn't know Orange could-- - Pear, I'm gonna need you to bite down.
45
This is a quiet sound.
46
You're messing with the whole vibe here.
47
- I AM the quiet one. He's-- - Shh. Now, Orange, let's see that beautiful list you got there, and show it to me nice and slow.
48
- Um, okay.
49
- Let's see. "Cat on a keyboard?" "Motorcycle in a bathtub?" Not quite the quiet vibe we're going for.
50
Let's just stick to the writing.
51
- So, I think you might wanna-- - Shh.
52
- But there's a-- - Writing, Orange.
53
Just stick to the writing.
54
- - What's this? "Knife?" Well that's not very calming.
55
Orange, I-I feel like you're not even trying.
56
I mean, ASMR is about calming sounds; it's about relaxation; it's not about loud noises like burps or yelps or motorcycles in bathtubs or-- - Chops? - Exactly.
57
What do chopping sounds have to do with calming yourself and-- - No! Chops!
58
- Huh?
59
- Argh-o!
60
- - HEY! Keep it down!
61
Much better.
62
- Eh, Pineapple's right.
63
This ASMR stuff is really relaxing.
64
Orange: Wow! Look at all these questions you've been asking.
65
Whoa. There are so many questions it's melting my computer.
66
That really "mega-bytes." I better start knocking some questions out quick.
67
Knife!

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.
