1
Jack, it's Aunt Ba from the countryside.
2
Yes, Auntie.
3
I'm listening.
4
Joan is about to start university.
5
I'm thinking of sending him to stay at your place so I can feel at ease.
6
Sure, Auntie.
7
But I'm a bit picky.
8
If he's clean and helps tidy up, then it's okay.
9
He's a good kid.
10
He works all the time back home, so don't worry.
11
Well, the rent right now is two million.
12
If he moves in, we'll split it equally,
13
so it'll be one million each, Auntie.
14
What?
15
Why split it equally?
16
I'm asking you to let him stay there as a favor.
17
He'll be out studying and working part-time all day,
18
and only come back at night to sleep.
19
It's not like he'll stay home all day,
20
so why make him pay as much as one million?
21
Auntie, even if he goes out to work,
22
his belongings are still kept in the room.
23
Even if that space is left empty,
24
the landlord still charges me the full two million.
25
They don't charge by the hour.
26
We're family, yet you're being so calculative.
27
The harvest failed back home this season, so money is tight.
28
That's why I had to ask.
29
If I had enough money,
30
I would have rented an apartment for him already instead of bothering with your tiny rented room.
31
But I also pay for this room out of my own pocket, Auntie.
32
I'm a student working myself to exhaustion too.
33
It's not like I can ask anyone else for money.
34
And he has a part-time job too,
35
so why say he has no money?
36
Then I'll contribute 300k, okay?
37
The room is already spacious enough.
38
He'll just squeeze into a corner to sleep.
39
It's not like you're losing anything.
40
300k probably isn't even enough to cover electricity and water.
41
With that amount, maybe he can only sleep there at night,
42
not stay in the morning.
43
And while he's in the room,
44
He can't use electricity or go to the toilet.
45
You're joking, aren't you?
46
Fine.
47
I won't take your money anymore.
48
Being obedient to your aunt is the right thing to do, okay?
49
Thank you so much.
50
After all, you're kind enough to let him stay there without charging me.

Practice Tips

To get the most out of this lesson, utilize a shadowing app or any audio recording device to practice your speaking. Start by watching the video at a slower speed to capture the nuances of the dialogue. Then, replay sections while you shadow speech to mimic the intonation and emotion conveyed by the speakers. Focus on key vocabulary, especially phrases like “split it equally” and “part-time job,” as they will be useful in daily conversations. Also, pay attention to the tone, which is slightly informal, reflecting a family discussion, and try to replicate that in your own speaking. With each repetition, listen for your pronunciation accuracy and compare it with the original speakers. This method will not only help you improve your English pronunciation but also enhance your ability to communicate in similar situations.

In addition, consider practicing with a language partner or using resources that integrate the shadowspeak technique. This collaborative practice can offer a supportive environment that fosters learning and articulation of your thoughts in English. Engaging with videos like this will allow you to learn English with YouTube effectively while enhancing both your vocabulary and fluency.

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.
