4
So I go in, this is like, I'm on S -Cinerant Live, I guess, or something, I don't remember really when it was.
5
And what about this one?
6
The point is, when you are the speaker, you are the captain for that journey.
7
And how you show up really matters.
8
Okay, one more for you guys.
9
You got a whole lot of nerve to come inside and ask me where I'm going.
10
I come and go as I please.
11
I bet these clips were easy to understand.
12
But with these ones, you had trouble.
13
So why does it happen?
14
Why can't we understand native speakers, especially when they talk fast?
15
Let's break it down.
16
You understood clips 1 and 3 because they were public speeches.
17
And such speeches are made to be clear.
18
clear pronunciation pauses nice structured sentences but clips two
19
and four was spontaneous natural the way natives speak in real life in this video we'll learn five tricks
20
and once you master them you'll finally open the door to the magical world of understanding native speakers
21
spoiler slowing the video down isn't the answer so get comfy grab some tea and let's get started
22
and we'll start with the first trick linking sounds this is
23
one of the main reasons natives sometimes sound like aliens they're just really good at linking blending words together
24
and once you start doing it too everything becomes
25
so much easier to understand let's break down the main types of linking with examples.
26
And we'll start with double consonants.
27
Sometimes two same consonants at the end of one word and the start of the next blend together.
28
Let's look at some examples.
29
Stop pushing becomes stop pushing.
30
Stop pushing big game becomes big game big game
31
and take care becomes take care
32
take care take care best time becomes best time best time
33
but it's not always the same consonant sometimes different consonants merge
34
or the first one drops so most people becomes most people most people
35
and fast runner becomes fast runner fast runner
36
and old man sounds like all men all men all
37
right moving on to the next one consonant plus ball it
38
is the most common Lincoln here a word ending in a
39
consonant blends straight into vowel at the start of the next word it's super common
40
and let's look at some examples pick it
41
pick it turn on turn on make it make it in a minute
42
in a minute and finally vowel plus vowel
43
when one words ends in a vowel
44
and the next one starts with a vowel speakers often add
45
tiny sounds to link them smoothly for example go out sounds like go out.
46
W. Go out.
47
Go out. Do it.
48
Sounds like do it.
49
Again with a W. Do it.
50
Just do it, man.
51
fly over sounds like fly over fly over fly over she asked sounds like she asked
52
she asked and go in go in go in go on go in and the most important i
53
am i am i am two apples two apples two apples do you hear this tiny dub sound
54
or a w
55
but you may ask julie how to practice linking my advice

How to speak fast and understand native speakers
Why Practice Speaking with This Video?
Mastering fast spoken English is key to real-world communication, and this video is your ultimate tool for english speaking practice. It breaks down why native speakers sound "too fast"—spontaneous speech, linking, and natural pauses—and gives you actionable tricks to decode it. By practicing with these examples, you’ll not only understand faster speech but also improve your own fluency using techniques like shadow speech. Whether you’re prepping for IELTS speaking practice or daily conversations, this video turns confusion into confidence.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
The video uses everyday structures that native speakers rely on. First, "I guess" softens statements (e.g., "I'm on S-Cinerant Live, I guess"), a common way to sound natural. Second, "The point is" frames key ideas, helping you organize thoughts in discussions. Third, "You got a whole lot of nerve" shows informal directness, useful for casual conversations. These phrases aren’t just grammar—they’re tools to connect with others. Practice shadowing technique with these lines to internalize their rhythm and tone.
Common Pronunciation Traps
Fast speech hides tricky pronunciation patterns. The biggest trap? Linking sounds. For example, "most people" becomes "mospeople" (dropping the "t"), and "old man" sounds like "all man" (merging consonants). Vowel linking is another hurdle: "go out" adds a "w" sound ("go-w-out"), and "do it" becomes "do-w-it". These aren’t mistakes—they’re how natives speak. Use shadowspeaks to mimic these links; repeat the clips aloud, matching the speed and blending. Over time, what once sounded like "aliens" will sound like second nature.
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.
