Hello, everybody.
2
In this video, I'm going to share with you a technique that you can use to remember English vocabulary.
3
And the reason that I recommend this technique is that it's pretty effective.
4
I actually did a small experiment.
5
I created two lists of words that I didn't know and I just tried to memorize the words in each list.
6
I did not use any technique to memorize the first list.
7
It was just pure repetition.
8
But for the second list, I used the technique that you're about to learn.
9
The next day I tried to recall the meanings of the words in both lists.
10
For the first list, I was able to recall only 12%.
11
But for the second list, I recalled as much as 50%.
12
This is pretty impressive considering the fact that I spent only one minute memorizing each word.
13
So let me explain the technique and then at the end of this video, I will give you a link to an exercise that you can do to practice this technique.
14
So let say we want to remember the word "adroit", which means "clever or skillful at something; really good at something".
15
The first thing we need to do is to come up with another word that sounds similar to this word.
16
And that word must refer to something that we can visualize - something that we can see in our mind.
17
So for this word, the substitute word could be the word 'android' which means "a robot." Right?
18
Adroit and android sound pretty close to each other.
19
We could also use the phrase "a drawing".
20
That sounds similar as well.
21
Adroit. A drawing.
22
What these words have in common is that they refer to something that we can visualize.
23
And this is a very important point and you're going find out why soon.
24
So we have two options here but let's use the word 'android' as the substitute word.
25
Now visualize an android. You know...a robot that looks like a human.
26
Next, we have to associate this image to the meaning of the word that we want to remember.
27
And again the meaning is "skillful at something.
28
That's the meaning.
29
So perhaps we can imagine the android doing something that requires a lot of skill.
30
Maybe we can imagine the android playing the guitar on stage.
31
Maybe there's a competition going on and we can imagine other guitarists come up on stage and try to compete with the android.
32
But everybody loses because the android is very good at playing the guitar.
33
The android is adroit at playing the guitar.
34
So what we're doing here is associate the pronunciation with the meaning through an image or a story.
35
We're creating an association between them.
36
So when you come across this word again, the pronunciation will remind you of the association and therefore the meaning of the word.
37
Let's take a look at one more example.
38
Suppose we want to memorize the word "lambaste," which means "to criticize (someone or something) harshly" For the first syllable 'lam,' we can use "lamb" - the animal, or "lamp" - the thing that generates light, as the substitute word.
39
For the second syllable "baste," we can use "bass" - the musical instrument. And I also happen to have a friend named "Bass". So personally, I can use his name as the substitute word as well.
40
But let's use "lamb" the animal and "bass" the musical instrument together.
41
So we can imagine a lamb playing the bass. But unfortunately, the lamb is really terrible at playing the bass. So the bass gets angry and starts criticizing the lamb.
42
The bass is lambasting the lamb.

This method not only helps you recall meanings but also aids in improving your overall vocabulary retention.

Practice Tips
To make the most out of this vocabulary memorization technique, consider the following tips:
- Engage in Shadowspeak: As you visualize the keywords like "adroit" and "lambaste," speak them aloud using the shadowing technique. This will help solidify your memory of both the words and their meanings.
- Adjust Your Speed: When practicing, mimic the speed of natural speech from the video. Slow down if necessary but try to maintain a rhythm similar to the speaker. This helps you adjust to natural intonation and rhythm.
- Use Imagery: Create vivid mental images of the associations you’ve developed. For instance, visualize an android playing the guitar skillfully each time you hear "adroit." The more unusual and colorful your images, the better they will stick in your mind.
- Consistency is Key: Regularly practice new vocabulary using this method. Spend at least 10 minutes daily, repeating the words and visualizing their meanings. This routine will help enhance your retention significantly.
- Record Yourself: After creating associations, record your own voice using the shadowspeak method to hear your pronunciation. Listen back to identify areas for improvement, especially focusing on rhythm and stress.
By implementing these techniques, you will not only improve your vocabulary but also gain confidence in your English speaking skills, enhancing your overall communication abilities. Happy learning!

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
