It's parked right in front.
34
And I start circling the south lawn.

do not let him out.

They call you renegade, right?

Do you reset the clocks when daylight saving time happens?
59
Somebody else does that for me.

Somebody does that for you.

Will you get rid of daylight saving time?

Or at least get rid of the part where we have to wake up earlier,
63
you can leave the other one.

Well, see, this is a California thing,
65
because you guys are always getting sun.
66
Yeah?

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.
