One of the best ways to learn through context,
8
through seeing, doing and experiencing.
9
So let's get to the markets and see what we can enjoy.
10
To get to the market,
11
we took the light rail.
12
We just had to wait three minutes for it to arrive.
13
These come quite frequently so it's a very convenient way to get to certain areas in Sydney.
14
Here comes the light rail now.
15
It's kind of a small train or similar to a tram.
16
I really like the ad on the side here,
17
these kind of Christmas themed Lego characters.
18
So cute.
19
Once the doors are open,
20
people board the light rail.
21
It was a very quick trip.
22
Our stop was Moore Park.
23
Of course, once we get off,
24
it's important to remember to tap off.
25
That's how we pay for transport here.
26
We can use an Opal card or your credit card and simply tap it on the terminal.
27
I use my phone.
28
One of the first things I see at the market are
29
some people taking photos with Santa next to a wonderful little Christmas tree.
30
I then thought I'd explore the market a little bit.
31
There were a lot of stores.
32
This one here is selling French bread.
33
There was a lot of different food and people walking around.
34
It was quite nice, it's in this covered area,
35
there's a tarp over the top providing shade so it wasn't too sunny inside.
36
There were a lot of food stores,
37
I couldn't really decide where to start.
38
All of the bread and baked goods looked so delicious.
39
There were also stores selling other things like clothes.
40
It looks like this lady is trying on a red jacket.
41
This stall caught my attention.
42
It looks like they were selling baby clothes,
43
but I just really liked this artwork.
44
Very French and really simple use of colours,
45
just red and blue, yet somehow it still felt so colourful.
46
Now it's time to eat.
47
The first thing that caught my attention were these duck baguettes.
48
I could see someone preparing them fresh.
49
One of my favourite things about this market was this outside area.
50
You could come out here and sit down and eat at a picnic table.
51
Do not feed the birds.
52
The baguette itself smelled so good and it was so delicious.
53
The duck was juicy.
54
After eating in the hot sun, I was quite thirsty.
55
And this stall caught my eye.
56
Orangina.
57
I've never seen this drink before.
58
Apparently this is a very French drink.
59
The bottle was very interesting.
60
It kind of looks like an orange formed into a glass bottle.
61
I needed to eat more.
62
And of course it wouldn't be a French market without crepes you can see a mix here of sweet
63
and savory crepes the sweet one has nutella and banana on it
64
while the savory one has spinach mushrooms and cheese oh did i mention cheese
65
so much cheese it's so good watching these be prepared i was so hungry even though I just ate the duck baguette.
66
You can see how crispy it is when he's folding it.
67
My mouth was watering.
68
We decided to get a savory one.
69
Here's our crepe.
70
It looks so good.
71
It's nicely toasted so you can see the different colors.
72
Some parts are a little bit lighter,
73
some parts are a little bit darker and it just stretches open to reveal the delicious ingredients inside.
74
This was awesome.
75
Now it was time to find something sweet.
76
I looked around for a while.
77
There are a lot of really delicious looking tarts.
78
This flan caught my eye.
79
I've never really tried anything like this before so I was curious.
80
This store was selling macaroons with some very interesting flavours.
81
I love macaroons.
82
I know they are difficult to make and they look so pretty all the different colors.
83
This one really got my attention.
84
Sunset Nectar, Mandarin, Orange, Citrus Fruit,
85
Australian Honey and 35% White Chocolate.
86
I need to try this.
87
We ended up getting the Sunset Nectar,
88
a pistachio and the creme brulee flavor.
89
They're so delicate, but it looks so gorgeous.
90
I was absolutely shocked at how it just crumbled in my mouth.
91
That's a good thing.
92
The outside was crispy.
93
The inside was soft, just like a macaroon should be.
94
You can see from my reaction, I loved this.
95
That's really good.
96
So good.
97
It's not bad.
98
Pistachio.
99
The pistachio was nice, but not as good as the creme brulee.
100
And then finally the sunset nectar, which I absolutely loved.
101
That was easily my favorite.
102
Oh, that is awesome.
103

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.
