1
Hey, what's up?
2
It's Alex.
3
Let's now look at the intonations in this short piece about somebody apologizing for being late.
4
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
5
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
6
So we have so sorry.
7
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
8
The I'm here gets reduced both times.
9
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
10
I took the wrong exit.
11
I took the wrong exit.
12
So wrong is a little bit higher because it's modifying exit.
13
I took the wrong exit.
14
I took 282 instead of 283.
15
So this is interesting.
16
We're comparing the two numbers.
17
282 instead of 283.
18
The stress point is on two and then three.
19
I took 282 instead of 283.
20
And so before that stress point, we're rising in that word.
21
You can treat 282 and 283 both as individual words.
22
282, 283.
23
Then it was all one-way roads for like three miles.
24
Then it was all...
25
So I'm stressing then, and normally a word like then doesn't get much stress in a sentence.
26
Here though, I'm explaining a sequence of events.
27
This happened, then that happened.
28
So there's stress on the word then.
29
Then it was all one-way roads for like three miles.
30
One-way roads.
31
High, high fall.
32
One-way roads for like, we reduce for like here, for like three miles.
33
And then we have three miles kind of in a higher tone to explain, you know, the feeling that I've got for like three miles.
34
I had to drive three miles in the wrong direction.
35
Until I could turn around and get back on the highway until I could turn around again, turn around again.
36
That's another stress point because that's the list of what I'm doing.
37
I'm explaining the list of things that caused me to be late
38
and so one of these major things is that I had to turn around again and get back on the highway.
39
So the stress points there are the important parts of the sentence.
40
It's what's bringing information to the listener instead of just doing grammatical function words.
41
And then the traffic started getting backed up.
42
And then the, and then the, again we're stressing then, and then the traffic started getting backed up.
43
Started getting backed up.
44
So we're falling at the end of the sentence.
45
This is a long sentence.
46
And then the traffic started getting backed up.
47
And so even though it's the end of a sentence, I still want to put some emotion into it and give a little bit of a falling tone to these words.
48
The traffic started getting backed up, backed up, especially on the two words backed up, backed up.
49
I can't believe it took so I can't believe it took so long.
50
I can't believe it took so long.
51
The stress points are here.
52
I've got a negative feeling.
53
I'm putting emotion into my sentence, and the stress points go on, believe it took so long.
54
I can't believe it took so long.
55
So it and so get almost totally reduced.
56
I'm saying them with such a light voice here.
57
I'm never taking that exit again.
58
I'm never taking.
59
I'm never taking that exit again.
60
So here the main point of this sentence is never.
61
If I kind of stopped listening and I just heard the word never, I would understand that it's the end of the person's explanation and they're saying, I'm never taking that exit again.
62
They're never going to do again what made them late.
63
So the stress is definitely on never and then we have some weaker stress here on taking that exit again.
64
Taking that exit again.
65
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
66
I took the wrong exit.
67
I took 282 instead of 283.
68
Then it was all one-way roads for like three miles until I could turn around again and get back on the highway, and then the traffic started getting backed up.
69
I can't believe it took so long.
70
I'm never taking that exit again.

अभ्यास टिप्स

इस वीडियो की गति और लहजे के अनुकूलित अभ्यास करने के लिए, आप shadow speech तकनीक का उपयोग कर सकते हैं। सबसे पहले, वीडियो को ध्यान से सुनें और बातचीत के प्रत्येक भाग को समझें। उसके बाद, धीरे-धीरे फिर से उसे बोलें, क्यूंकि अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करते समय लहजे का सही उपयोग महत्वपूर्ण है।

यह सुनिश्चित करें कि आप उन शब्दों पर जोर दें जो विशेष जानकारी प्रदान करते हैं, जैसे कि "wrong exit" और "traffic backed up"। कोशिश करें कि आप अपनी आवाज़ के उच्च और निम्न स्तरों का उपयोग करें ताकि आप अंग्रेजी उच्चारण में सुधार कर सकें। जब आप बोलें, तो अपने स्वर में संवेग डालें, जैसे कि वीडियो में दिखाया गया है।

आपको अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग की तकनीक का उपयोग करना चाहिए, जिससे आप मूल वक्ता की आवाज़ का अनुकरण कर सकें। इससे आपकी बातचीत की कौशल में निखार आएगा और आप अधिक आत्मविश्वास के साथ संवाद कर पाएंगे।

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
