I have some time tomorrow afternoon.

Sorry, I can't.

I have a dentist appointment at that time.

My teeth are killing me.

Oh, no. Okay, what about Wednesday morning?

Wednesday is bad, too.

I have meetings all day.

My calendar is a mess.

Thursday at 6 p.m.

The one with the good donuts?

Coffee and donuts.

That works for me.

Awesome.
36
See you Thursday at 6.
37
This is hopeless.
38
My fingers are like stiff sausages.
39
I keep hitting the wrong keys.
40
It sounds okay to me.

You only started lessons last week. Be patient.

That is the problem.
43
I am 30 years old.
44
I should have started when I was five.
45
My brain is too old to learn music now.

Stop that.

Better late than never.

I know.

But look at those kids on the internet.
52
They are amazing.
53
I will never be good.
54
It feels like a waste of time.
55
You are not doing it to be a professional.

Do you enjoy it?

I suppose so.

I like the sound.

I will try this song one more time,
71
but please cover your ears.

Good luck.

I can't believe we shopped until 9pm.

All the stores are closing.

Me neither.

We need to head home soon.

The last train leaves in an hour.
81
I know, but I am starving.
82
I feel a bit dizzy.
83
That is not good.
84
There is a fast food place across the street.
85
Let's grab a bite.
86
A fast food place?
87
Will we have to wait long?
88
We really don't have time for a slow dinner.
89
Don't worry.
90
It is casual and very fast.
91
We can order at the counter.
92
Do they have anything hot?
93
It is getting cold out here.
94
They make the best toasted sandwiches and hot soup in the city.
95
It is perfect for a quick dinner.
96
Hot soup sounds amazing right now.
97
You convinced me.
98
I can't walk home on an empty stomach.
99
Great.
100
We can eat quickly and then run to the station.
101
Come on, let's grab a bite.
102
Lead the way.
103
My stomach is growling so loud.
104
Finally, it is Friday night.
105
I am so ready to go out.
106
Do you have any plans?
107
Not really.
108
I just want to do something fun.
109
Me too!
110
We have two options.
111
We can go to the new cinema downtown,
112
or we can try that bowling alley near the park.
113
Mmm, bowling sounds active, but the movie sounds relaxing.
114
I honestly can't decide.
115
Come on, you need to pick one.
116
I always make the plans.
117
I am too tired to think right now.
118
I trust your judgment.
119
It is up to you.
120
That is a lot of pressure.
121
Remember last time I picked the restaurant and you hated the food?
122
That was different.
123
The food was too spicy.
124
Just pick something simple.
125
I promise I won't complain this time.
126
Okay, if I choose, we are going bowling.
127
I have too much energy to sit in a dark theater.
128
Bowling sounds great, but you have to drive.
129
Fine, I will drive but the music in the car is up to you.
130
Deal.
131
I will pick the best playlist.
132
Let's go.
133
You have been busy in here for two hours.
134
It sounds like a war zone.
135
Is dinner almost ready?
136
Just wait.
137
I am preparing a gourmet feast.
138
It is going to be delicious.
139
Are you sure you don't need help?
140
Last time you cooked, we ordered pizza.
141
That was a mistake.
142
This time is different.
143
I followed a video online.
144
Honestly, cooking this roast chicken is a piece of cake.
145
Okay, if you say so.
146
But wait a minute.
147
What is that smell?
148
Is something burning?
149
Burning?
150
No, that is just the smell of spices.
151
Oh no, the oven.
152
It smells like smoke.
153
Open the door.
154
It is a disaster.
155
The chicken is completely black.
156
The vegetables are ash.
157
Wow!
158
That is definitely not edible.
159
So, what is plan B?
160
Plan B is ham and cheese sandwiches.
161
I can't mess that up.
162
Great choice!
163
Making a sandwich really is a piece of cake.
164
Please stop laughing.
165
Just pass me the mayonnaise.
166
I must be dreaming.
167
Look at this lake.
168
It is crystal clear, and the mountains look like a painting.
169
I told you this place was amazing.
170
We are only two hours away from the city,
171
but it feels like a different planet.
172
It is so quiet.
173
No traffic, no sirens, and no emails.
174
Honestly, for a stressed office worker like me,
175
this piece is too good to be true.
176
The air here is so fresh.
177
Take a deep breath.
178
It smells like pine trees, not exhaust fumes.
179
I could stay here forever.
180
The sun is warm and the breeze is perfect.
181
I really don't want to go back to my tiny cubicle on Monday.
182
Let's not think about Monday.
183
Let's just enjoy the sunlight right now.
184
You are right.
185
But sitting here, watching this view,
186
it still feels a little too good to be true.
187
Well, it is real, and we have the whole weekend to enjoy it.

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.
