166
You work here?

168
What about what?
169
I'm working with a network of entrepreneurs,
170
who are engaged to help the younger companies.
171
I'm putting in the link between entrepreneurs to develop their vocation as a chef of the company.
172
And to create an enterprise,
173
it's more practical to be at Paris?
174
Yes and no, because there are entrepreneurs everywhere in France.
175
We are international, so we have people everywhere,
176
not only in France but abroad.
177
What we see is that there are entrepreneurs everywhere,
178
there are a creation of jobs everywhere.
179
So in reality, yes, it is better when we are in a digital company,
180
especially in Paris, but it is not necessarily necessary.
181
There are also champions of digital abroad in France.
182
You have always been in the 14th arrondissement?
183
No, I have lived first the Paris Parisian vanliyte,
184
Gonesse, then the 15th arrondissement,
185
which is a few pieces,
186
then the 12th arrondissement and the 14th arrondissement,

Why practice speaking with this video?
In the video "Why Do You Live in Paris?" from Easy French, the vibrant ambiance of Paris serves as an inspiring backdrop for language learners. Engaging in conversations about life in Paris allows you to immerse yourself in real-life contexts, which is crucial for improving your English speaking skills. By practicing with everyday dialogues like those in this video, you not only learn to speak English fluently but also develop better listening comprehension. Utilizing the shadowspeak method, you can mimic the speakers’ intonations and rhythms, helping you to sound more natural when conversing in English.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
Analyzing the dialogue reveals several key structures that are beneficial for English learners:
- Yes/No Questions: The use of simple yes/no questions such as "Do you live in Paris?" illustrates how to form direct inquiries in English. This structure is fundamental for engaging in conversations.
- Conditional Statements: The phrase "It depends on you" showcases how conditional statements can express circumstances and preferences. Learning to use these can enrich your conversational skills.
- Descriptive Adjectives: Phrases like "cultural density" and "exceptional lighting" highlight the power of adjectives in creating vivid descriptions, essential for painting a picture in conversation.
- Expressing Personal Opinions: The speaker mentions "I think that we travel from one place to another," providing a structure for expressing personal beliefs or feelings, which is crucial for deeper discussions.
Using the shadowing technique, learners can effectively grasp these structures by repeating after the speakers, enhancing both grammar and vocabulary.
Common Pronunciation Traps
Pronunciation is a vital aspect of speaking English fluently, and this video presents several challenging words and accents:
- “cultural density”: This phrase may be hard to articulate due to its rhythmic demands. Focus on breaking it down into smaller parts for clarity.
- “exceptional”: With a complex vowel sound, pronunciation can be tricky. Ensure you practice stressing the second syllable, "cep," to master it.
- “village”: The soft "v" and the ending "age" can cause slight mispronunciations. Pay attention to the subtle difference between "village" and "village." A common trap is dropping the "l" sound, so practice by elongating that sound when speaking.
Implementing these techniques not only improves your pronunciation but also boosts your confidence in using English in everyday situations. By incorporating shadowspeaks into your practice, you can refine your accent and become a more compelling speaker.
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.
