87
Welcome back!
88
Now let's look closely at some useful words and phrases from our conversation.
89
First, let's look at the phrase, go for a jog.
90
Jogging means running at a slow, steady pace.
91
You can say, I go for a jog in the morning.
92
Zara, can you repeat that for our listeners?
93
Sure.
94
I go for a jog in the morning.
95
Now it's your turn, listeners.
96
Repeat after me.
97
I go for a jog.
98
Excellent.
99
Next is the question, How often do you...blank?
100
We use this to ask about frequency.
101
How many times you do something?
102
For example, how often do you exercise?
103
And the answer can be three times a week or every day.
104
Let's practice.
105
Listen and repeat.
106
How often do you exercise?
107
Great job!
108
Another useful phrase is stay fit.
109
To stay fit means to keep your body healthy and strong through exercise.
110
Zara said, what do you do to stay fit?
111
Let's practice that short sentence.
112
Repeat after me.
113
To stay fit.
114
We also mentioned two common gym activities.
115
Lift weights and use the treadmill.
116
A treadmill is a machine that you run or walk on while staying in one place.
117
Finally, pay attention to the phrase, work out.
118
Work out is a phrasal verb that means the same thing as exercise.
119
You can say, I work out at the gym.
120
Or, I listen to music when I work out.
121
Let's practice this one last time.

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.
