शैडोइंग अभ्यास: How to Sound Like a British Person 🇬🇧 (British RP Accent Lesson) - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

Okay, I can get your British accent to sound so much better with just one sentence.

My daughter put a thick brown jumper on a bird because she feared it was starting to look bare.

Now, this sentence contains a lot of really important sounds for a British RP accent.

That is the accent you will hear on the BBC a lot of the time.

So if you hear a newsreader on the BBC,

they normally talk in what we call a received pronunciation.

So when I say British accent,

that is what I'm talking about.

Obviously, we have lots of different accents in Britain,

but this is usually the one that my English students want to learn.

Now, the sounds in this sentence are usually the ones that my English learners find the most difficult.

So if we can work on these sounds and say this sentence perfectly,

you are on your way to a perfect British RP accent.

Let's get started.

So let's start at the beginning.

My daughter.

That word is a really interesting word.

So the first vowel sound we have there is aw.

I know it's not spelt like aw,

it's spelt like dow, really.

A-U-G-H oh my goodness, what a strange spelling,

but we pronounce it like or.

Or sound happens with lots of different spellings.

So look at all of these words.

All of these words have the or sound,

but look at all of those spellings.

It's so annoying.

We've got for, floor, jaw, caught, and fought.

How can all of those different spellings make one sound?

I don't know, but just be ready for this sound because the spelling will not help you.

So this word daughter, I want you to imagine that that first sound is just like if you were saying door, door.

Okay, so we've got open the door,

daughter, and really make it long.

It's a long sound.

Okay, in British sharp E we have short sounds and we have long sounds.

This is a long sound.

Daughter.

And that ER at the end,

we don't say the R.

So if you are saying daughter,

daughter, I want you to say daughter, daughter, uh, uh, uh.

That E-R ending is actually what we call a schwa,

a completely neutral sound.

So make a completely neutral sound with me.

You ready?

Uh, uh, uh.

That's all I want, okay?

I don't want A, I don't want ooo, I just want a.

So we put it together and we say daughter, daughter, daughter.

Okay, I hope you're saying this with me because otherwise I'm just saying it on my own.

Then the sentence carries on, put a thicc.

Now there's that th.

Everybody hates the th.

The th, they just, they just,

they just hate it, don't they?

They hate the th.

He hates the th.

Everybody hates it.

So you have to stick your tongue out.

When you're learning, I really want that tongue to be visible.

Thick.

If you're struggling with that,

try the TH on its own.

So get your tongue, stick it between your teeth and breathe.

It should feel relaxed.

Don't go, you know, don't tense it all up.

Relax.

Relax your face.

Relax everything.

There we go.

Thick.

Then we have a sound that I never thought would be too difficult,

but recently a lot of my students have been struggling with this sound.

Brown.

Now what people are finding difficult is the ow.

That is a diphthong.

It means there are two sounds in it.

So a monophthong just has one sound like one sound.

A diphthong has two.

So we transition from one sound to another.

So when we say the word brown,

we need to hear both of the sounds of the diphthong.

We need to hear aow.

A lot of my students just do the first part but not the second,

so it sounds like bran, bran.

There's no oo in it.

if I slow it right down it should be brown then

we have the word jumper some of my Spanish speakers struggle with the they say jumper

so make sure it's jumper jumper and again

that er ending is just a schwa forget about it throw

the sound away don't focus on the second sound some of my students go jump ah jump ah

and we don't need that just really give it a very light sound jumper jumper jumper

so putting that Together we have a thick brown jumper.

My daughter put a thick brown jumper on a bird.

That is another really difficult sound.

So it's a long sound and it requires your jaw to go down.

100

I think because people see an R in that word they go bird.

101

So we have to drop the jaw and we go

102

put a B in front of it then put a D bird, bird, bird.

103

My daughter put a thick brown jumper on a bird.

104

You're doing well, let's carry on.

105

The next interesting word here is feared, feared.

106

Again, this is where people want to do an R,

107

they want to say feared, feared.

108

But this is another diphthong.

109

The diphthong is ear ear ear do you hear how it drops to nothing ear

110

so if we just say that word fear fear

111

because she feared okay not feared it was starting starting

112

that ah sound is like a choir Fa la la la la la la la la la starting.

113

Ca, fa.

114

That's the sound.

115

So really think about open, jaw down, starting.

116

Not starting.

117

Starting.

118

She feared it was starting to look bare.

119

Air.

120

There's another diphthong.

121

Air.

122

So this is the sound you would hear in these words like hair, where, bear, there.

123

It was starting to look there.

124

It was starting to look bare.

125

Okay then shall we put it all together

126

and just practice it a couple of times okay so you can pause this video,

127

you can play it slower,

128

do whatever you need to do.

129

I'm going to say it twice for you, okay?

130

Here we go.

131

My daughter put a thick brown jumper on a bird because she feared it was starting to look bare.

132

My daughter put a thick brown jumper on a bird because she feared it was starting to look bare.

133

So take your time with that sentence.

134

I want you to practice that every day if you can.

135

Say it three times every day, but do it intentionally.

136

It will not help you if you sit there and go,

137

my daughter put a thick brown jumper on a bird because that's not going to help you.

138

Do it in front of a mirror.

139

Look at your mouth.

140

Pronunciation is all about changing the shapes that your mouth make.

141

So naturally, your mouth wants to make certain shapes we need to change it

142

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।
