1
Hello and welcome back to Word Up.
2
You might be studying for your IELTS exam or maybe you just want to improve your vocabulary or your English.
3
Well, this is a great game for you.
4
It's a lot of fun.
5
It's fast paced and it's exciting.
6
So the quick rules.
7
I have ten cards in my hand, on the card is a word, and the player has to guess at least eight out of ten words in two minutes to win $20.
8
But this time there's a switchover happening.
9
I'm going to be the player, and if I get eight out of ten words, my fellow participant will get to keep the $20.
10
So now it's time to switch seats.
11
I have just arrived in the player's seat.
12
I am sweating.
13
Is it hot in here?
14
I can't wait.
15
I'm excited, but I am very nervous.
16
I think we're going to do well, but it will be a test.
17
All right.
18
First one.
19
When you go to jail you commit a crime.
20
Correct.
21
It's not warm.
22
It's cold.
23
Yep.
24
you there's a start and there's a finish the end An end exam might be called a...
25
A final exam.
26
a part of your brain that lets you reflect on the past cortex It has a function, not the memory.
27
Yep.
28
not below it's above to That's good.
29
In court, someone goes on Parole.
30
They go on the jury, they can go up to the stand, they make a statement, they're a witness.
31
I love that one.
32
When you are really knowledgeable about a subject, you are a professor or expert?
33
Um, Thank you people do law at a law school firm.
34
Yep.
35
when you go somewhere, to see someone you are is it yep okay to lay some ground rules you uh,
36
- Order, no. - You want someone to know something.
37
You convince them, you take the stand.
38
More like a background knowledge.
39
You give them context, you lay the rules, you give them context, you set the scene.
40
Again, in court, you go on.
41
That's the phrase of the word, you go on.
42
You go on.
43
Or okay, when you, go to compete in a sport.
44
you want to get on the team you have to compete
45
or you have to audition or you have to you have to um trial yes okay final one
46
well how well did we do you got nine out of ten nine out of ten so this twenty dollars
47
so don't do that at home people.
48
I will be washing my hands.
49
Wow, thank you so much.
50
I think that was great teamwork.
51
So let's talk about the words we did get.
52
So the first one was crime.
53
Nice.
54
I thought that was pretty easy.
55
Yeah, I had a bit of time to start to prep that one.
56
Yeah.
57
That was quite...
58
Good.
59
Number two, cold.
60
Yes, the warm and the cold.
61
It's always good to use the opposites.
62
I guess the synonyms would be if it was chilly.
63
You could sense that. Or winter.
64
Winter it is.
65
Yeah.
66
Number three final.
67
- Final, yes.
68
- It was a bit tricky.
69
I was like, start, end.
70
- Start, end, and then we got there in the end, we said finish.
71
and then you use the exam, final exam.
72
Yeah, so that was good.
73
Memory Oh yes, that was to do with the brain.
74
I definitely could have described that better.
75
I went down the route of describing literal parts of the brain.
76
The cortex, cerebral.
77
They're very knowledgeable about something, but yeah, that one was tough.
78
Number five, above.
79
Oh yeah, and you used below.
80
Yeah, I guess if you were going to go the synonym you could say something on top of Maybe.
81
Yeah, yeah.
82
Definitely.
83
Number eight, expert.
84
Expert, yes, I said professor first, but expert in the field.
85
Yeah.
86
So when you know a lot about something, that's what you said, which is great.
87
Firm?
88
Yeah, law firm.
89
Law firm, yeah.
90
I guess another way we could have gone is firm people when they - maybe massagers, they say, "Do you want it light or do you want it firm -ish?"
91
But I think the law firm was the easiest way.
92
Yeah.
93
Number 10, visit.
94
I struggled not to say that word when I was describing because Is it hard but going to see someone?
95
Yeah, visit.
96
Yeah, going to see someone.
97
Trial.
98
Yeah, that was the one that took me a little while.
99
I think I was just thinking about things in a court of law but trial.
100
But then when you use the sport That was really helpful.
101
It was tough to move on to the different topic.
102
I was just like, focused on court for a while.
103
um but then I met Don.
104
And the one that we didn't get was establish.
105
Oh, establish.
106
Yeah.
107
And I think I, in my head mixed up, that one was still had the law.
108
I was still going down the law path.
109
Establish.
110
Yeah.
111
That's a tricky one.
112
Yeah.
113
Well, well done.
114
Well, thank you so much for watching.
115
I had a lot of fun on the other side of the seat.
116

Practice Tips
To maximize your learning experience with the content from this video, implement the shadowing technique. This method not only helps improve your pronunciation but also enhances your fluency. Here are some specific tips to effectively practice:
- Watch the video multiple times: Initially listen to the transcript without pause to get a sense of the flow. Take note of the speaker's rhythm and intonation.
- Repeat along with the speaker: As you become familiar with the words, begin to shadowspeak in sync with the video. This will help you internalize the vocabulary and phrases.
- Practice at different speeds: Start at the normal pace of the video and gradually slow it down. This will enhance your articulation and comprehension before attempting to speak at full speed.
- Record yourself: After practicing, record your shadowing exercises. Listening back can help you identify areas for improvement and track your progress over time.
- Engage with others: If possible, practice with a friend or a study partner. Engaging in discussions about the words and phrases helps solidify your understanding and boosts your confidence.
By consistently applying these techniques, you will not only enhance your vocabulary but also become adept at IELTS speaking practice, fostering a smoother conversation flow and overall speaking proficiency.
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.
