शैडोइंग अभ्यास: I read Stephen King for the first time... while home alone 😳 - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

One reader, three books, and no one else home.

I'm gonna scream.

Grotesque.

Oh my god.

Oh my god, I just got so scared.

I thought it would be fun reading horror for the first time while home alone, but turns out scary was a better word than fun.

I'm so excited to start filming this video.

I felt like a little kid on Christmas morning all day because I love, I love, I love scary things.

I love horror movies.

I love haunted houses.

I cannot believe that I have never, ever, ever read a horror book before.

I guess I have like semi-read horror books a little, but I feel like they don't really count.

I've read quite a few mystery thrillers and some of them like maybe have a little horror elements.

Like probably the closest horror book I've read is The Only One Left by Riley Sager.

But even that one I feel like is 90% mystery thriller.

So this video is me reading my first official horror books ever.

My first time ever reading Stephen King.

And I'm doing it all while completely alone in my apartment.

My boyfriend is on a trip right now.

But despite the fact that I will be reading these books completely alone, I will not be choosing these books completely alone

because I have called in some Stephen King experts to choose what books I read in this video.

I'm going to be reading three Stephen King books in this video, chosen by three different experts and our first expert is probably the biggest Stephen King fan

that I know and a fellow booktuber Ian Gabelli.

If I had to guess, I don't know.

I would think

that he would recommend me maybe like a really really iconic

Stephen King book since I've never read a book by him before.

My guess will be It by Stephen King, although that book is so insanely long.

I think it's like a thousand pages?

How long is it by Stephen King?

1168 pages.

Actually, I hope he doesn't do that one because that's so long.

Okay, let's see.

Hello, Allie.

Thank you so much for asking me to be a part of this video.

It is always an honor to be asked what Stephen King book should I read.

I am a really big Stephen King fan, so you come to the right place.

When people who don't really read Stephen King much come to me and ask for a recommendation, it's always the hardest thing to pinpoint what book would be perfect for them to start with, but really there is no wrong answer.

However, for you, I'm leaning more towards some of his popular or critically acclaimed works to start with, because you really can't go wrong with any of them.

And the one that I have specifically in mind for you is Misery.

Don't let that close to Little Cabin in the Woods fool you.

This book is absolute nightmare fuel.

Author Paul Sheldon gets in a near-fatal car accident and is saved by none other than his biggest fan.

She nurses him, she mends him, she feeds him, and at the same time, holds him captive.

This book is pure psychological horror.

There is nothing supernatural about it.

The terror in this book just mounts and mounts and mounts.

You don't know what's coming around each corner.

You don't know what's going to happen next.

This book keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time.

And in Stephen King's own words, this is one of his favorite, if not his favorite antagonist he's ever written.

I think this is a perfect launching pad for anyone looking to get into Stephen King and for you, Allie.

I think you'll appreciate this so, so much.

That's my recommendation.

Yay.

Okay.

I'm so excited.

I have not heard of Misery by Stephen King.

And of course, I do not own it, but by the plot description and Ian's personal wreck, I'm very, very intrigued and I'm glad he described it as very scary.

So now we need to go to the bookstore and buy it.

I just got to page 10 and we got a mention of the title.

I love in books

when you first pick it up you have no idea what the title means

and then as you read you learn the significance of it.

Our main character is an author and he has a series of novels called Misery.

Right at the beginning he's also being held captive and his captor's favorite books are his Misery novels.

I have quite the hole for you guys.

I got Misery as you guys saw

and I also got a few other books for a book shopping video I just filmed.

Also, if you haven't met my cat, this is Luca.

The other books I got are Tour Season, Twilight, and Fake Skating, which I also think are gonna be great seasonal reads.

And I also went grocery shopping.

I went to Trader Joe's.

They, I think, just put out a bunch of their fall stuff.

I thought we needed some cozy fall vibes as we enter the darkness and spookiness of reading this book at night tonight.

So for dessert tonight, we have pumpkin sugar cookies.

I'm also gonna make pasta, so I got some sausage, sauce.

And my number one goal was to try their pumpkin gnocchi, but they didn't have it, So I just got regular gnocchi.

One more Halloween product is pumpkin ale.

I was talking with the cashier, and we both agreed we are skeptical but intrigued of this flavor.

Putting our pumpkin ale in a little cocktail glass because we're classy.

Oh, that is not good.

It does taste like pumpkin.

Is it growing on me?

Maybe.

Wouldn't buy again, but will drink what I bought.

Mmm.

Wait, this is so good.

Pumpkin sugar cookies made. and they taste great.

And then in the book, I'm on page 80.

One of the big questions I had before starting this video is, like I said, I love horror movies, and I feel like a lot of horror movies obviously rely on like visuals and sound to be scary.

It scares you by the element of surprise.

Maybe there's something visually super creepy.

So a big question I had is like, how will words spook me?

And I would say so far, I'm not like, oh my god, I'm scared.

I think it's more I'm on edge.

Obviously, this is the first horror book I've read, so I don't have anything else to compare it to, but this book is very subtle.

I feel like it uses a lot of descriptions to come across as very unsettling.

Like, even in this sentence, it's describing Annie, Paul's captor's smile, and it says, she smiled, a pulling of the lips that was grotesquely puppet-like.

100

Her dead, alive smile widened.

101

The kind of unsettling part is, like, we just can't trust Annie to be any kind of reliable narrator.

102

Obviously she's literally a kidnapper but even beyond

103

that it's almost like she doesn't even live in the own reality of her kidnapping.

104

She's constantly trying to kind of like make herself feel better about the kidnapping by saying she's saving him, she's nursing him back to health.

105

So I'm very intrigued to see as I keep reading

106

if I have a moment where I'm genuinely like oh my god quaking in my boots.

107

Spooked or if it's more like the tension, the unsettling, the what is What's Annie gonna do next feeling?

108

I'm literally just two pages later and things are escalating very quickly.

109

Okay, I see how things might start getting more and more and more intense as the book goes on.

110

had to light my pumpkin candles to set the mood i've done a lot of reading

111

so far today and i'm on page 248 and something happened

112

that had me like it made me so squeamish it was

113

so gruesome and what i really like is

114

that you can see both of their mental states just getting worse and worse as the book goes on.

115

Now Paul has been Annie's captive for quite a while

116

and just seeing like how that wears on him and also on her is really interesting.

117

I just got to page 263 and something juicy is happening

118

and it's got me thinking about what I predict the ending to be.

119

Like I said I've never read horror before so I don't know

120

if like other genres it typically has a happy ending or not.

121

My objective guess is

122

that it's gonna have like a mixed ending like a little bit of like bittersweet

123

but I just want there to be a perfect neat happy ending

124

because Paul has been through so much like this man deserves a happy ending.

125

I finished the book.

126

The ending got me multiple times like there's multiple moments.

127

I can't even say because I don't want to tell you anything.

128

I feel like you just have to go in being surprised.

129

I think the last 100 pages of the book were my

130

favorite by far like very high stakes I was on the

131

edge of my seat the entire ending for a star rating

132

I think i'm gonna say 4.25 stars The only reason it's

133

not higher is I do think like some points moved a little slower for me more

134

so kind of like the beginning middle But I think it's

135

so so impressive that the majority of this book takes place in mostly one room

136

or at least one house with just Two characters like that's crazy to be able to write an entire novel

137

and hold a reader's attention with such a limited number of setting and characters.

138

Good first start, I would say, to Stephen King.

139

And now I think I'm gonna watch the movie literally tonight while it's fresh in my mind.

140

I'm like so excited to see how the actors are gonna bring these characters to life, particularly Annie.

141

Oh my God, I just got so scared.

142

I turned on the TV to look up the movie, but I didn't play the movie yet.

143

I just turned the TV on and then I came back in my bedroom to get my camera.

144

And then I heard voices and I was like, oh my god, I'm home alone.

145

Why are there people talking in my apartment?

146

It was the TV, which may be obvious to you, but it wasn't just like cable TV or whatever.

147

It's like, I think I have like a fire stick or something.

148

So like, it should just be the homepage with the app, but it started playing something, which I didn't know it was going to do.

149

I was really in here.

150

Like, I'm going to have to fight off these intruders.

151

Okay.

152

I'm now going to watch a scary movie now that I am currently heart pounding.

153

Wish me luck.

154

Good morning!

155

I finished watching the movie last night.

156

I really like the movie.

157

I think I'm going to give it maybe like a 7.5 out of 10.

158

I think it's funny we do book ratings on five star scale, but then to me movies are in a 10 point rating system.

159

I don't know why they're different, but it just makes sense to me.

160

And now it's time to reveal our next expert

161

and the next book they pick for me to read our

162

next expert is Ashlyn who is Ian's wife both booktubers

163

if you hadn't heard of them they both have the same

164

amazing qualifications of being the absolute biggest Stephen King fans I know

165

so let's watch the video and see which book she recommends

166

as you've seen we own a lot of Stephen King

167

and there's even more behind me Ali thank you so much for asking me to give you a Stephen King recommendation.

168

You know this is like a huge honor to me.

169

Thank you thank you thank you a million times.

170

I could not decide between these two books

171

that I wanted to give you that are some of my favorite

172

but based on what you've told me that you just love in horror movies I decided there's there's only one right answer.

173

So the one I'm going to be giving you is actually like my favorite book of all time.

174

Oh I really gotta to move this around actually.

175

That is Pet Sematary by Stephen King.

176

You have to read this book.

177

Like I one need to talk to you about it.

178

From the man himself he has said this is the scariest book he has ever written.

179

That will make a lot more sense after you read the book

180

and then you have to read the author's notes at the beginning.

181

If you don't know what Pet Sematary is about it follows the Creed family.

182

They just move into this small town and they have this huge road

183

that is right outside of their door where there are these big trucks

184

that are constantly driving down it

185

and unfortunately a lot of the neighborhood pets end up getting killed by the trucks on this road.

186

Because of this the community has a pet cemetery which happens to be on the property of the Creed family.

187

They are warned by a neighbor across the street

188

that the pet cemetery might be more than it seems

189

and as it says on the back of the book sometimes dead is better

190

and let me just say the less you know about it is kind of better especially

191

if you like horror then you can just jump right in

192

this made me constantly look over my shoulder i was terrified as i was reading it

193

and my skin was just crawling i cannot wait to see what you think thank you

194

so much for asking me and best of luck to you friend i am excited

195

but nervous for you okay i'm

196

so excited to be honest i'm not really surprised i didn't know before watching this video for sure

197

that she would pick pet cemetery

198

but Ashlyn has told me so many times that she loves

199

that book that I'm pretty sure it's like one of her favorite books ever

200

if not like her top Stephen King book for sure

201

so I had a feeling she would pick

202

that book honestly I was hoping she would pick it just

203

because I've heard so many amazing things from her about

204

that book for so long I'm also excited

205

that she said it's like one of his scariest books I did not know

206

that and I don't really know anything about Pet Sematary obviously besides the summary she just gave

207

so I'm glad she said to go in kind of blind like the less you know the better

208

because that is currently where I'm at and I also know there's a movie

209

so another one where we can watch the movie after reading the book.

210

I also wanted to reveal the third book we'll be reading in this video

211

because we have kind of an interesting timeline coming up that I'll explain in a second.

212

But first, our third book reveal is a book I actually already own right here, 11-22-63 by Stephen King.

213

I picked this book for a few reasons.

214

Number one, Ashlyn and Ian actually convinced me to buy this book, I think earlier this year.

215

So they are also kind of re-dually the experts for our third book pick.

216

I know Stephen King is so well known for horror, but this book is actually not horror.

217

And before they told me about this book, I had no idea that he wrote anything besides horror.

218

So I thought it would be fun in this video to do two scary books, which is his classic bread and butter, but to also do one that's a different genre.

219

So to kind of get the full Stephen King experience.

220

And now to discuss the timeline that I mentioned, coming up, I actually have almost a two week trip to Europe that I'm going on with my mom.

221

And then when I get back from Europe, I'll be home alone again because Dani will be on a work trip.

222

Because of that kind of weird timeline, I thought it would be fun to read 11-22-63 next while I'm on my trip.

223

Since this one isn't scary, I don't need to prioritize reading it while I'm home alone.

224

And then we'll pick up Pet Sematary when I get back from my trip.

225

So that's kind of our calendar for the rest of this video.

226

I literally just read chapter one and then realized I did not tell you guys at all what this book is about.

227

Our main character Jake is going to go back in time to the 60s, which is where we get the title 11-22-63, to stop the assassination of JFK.

228

And beyond that, I know absolutely nothing.

229

So I'm so intrigued to see, like I literally have so many questions about that, like why

230

go back in time to do this how to go back in time to do this how does he accomplish

231

that how does like the magic time travel system work

232

and the only other thing i know is that ashlyn also told me

233

that this book is very genre bending

234

which i think is cool obviously historical fiction sci-fi and i believe there's some romance too

235

I just made it to part two chapter six.

236

I have felt instantly hooked

237

which I feel like is rare normally I feel like it takes a little bit for a book to hook me.

238

I think what makes it so good is it feels so immersive.

239

The second he stepped back in time I literally felt like I was right there with him.

240

All packed.

241

And the next time I see you guys, I will be in Europe.

242

Okay.

243

See you guys on my trip.

244

I ended up only reading about a hundred pages on the flight there, which our flight was 11 hours.

245

So not very much at all.

246

We took an overnight flight.

247

So I think I was just so tired and trying my hardest to sleep.

248

And then we made it to Munich, Germany.

249

I loved Munich.

250

It was my favorite city on the trip.

251

And then we took a train to Austria.

252

We spent a day in Halstead, which was stunning

253

and then the rest of our time in salzburg we did

254

a sound of music tour tons of cool historical buildings

255

and churches and a fortress and my favorite part was this mozart concert

256

that we did it was

257

so fun getting dressed up eating fancy food listening to great music

258

and then i did a lot more reading on the flight back

259

and we got a romance plot introduced to the book

260

i'm back from my trip and i'm on chapter 27

261

which is page 689 so i have just under 200 pages left And the start of this chapter is 11-17-63.

262

So we are nearing the date of the book, 11-22-63.

263

And I'm so scared for the main character.

264

Everything is going wrong right now.

265

And I don't know how he's going to pull off his mission.

266

But I'm so excited.

267

We are literally, oh my gosh, I feel like I'm just recalling so much that has happened since I last updated you guys.

268

We got so much of the romance, which I love so much.

269

I remember Ashlyn telling me

270

that I think she said this book is her favorite romance ever in any Stephen King book

271

that she's read and I can see why.

272

Like I feel like it's just such a great love in this book and I just love the people.

273

I thought I'd more so be in it for the sci-fi plot

274

which I am but I just really really care about their main character Jake

275

and like all the people that he's met and

276

that are a part of his life now in the past

277

and I'm so scared too because I'm like at the end is he gonna go back to present day?

278

Is he gonna stay in the past?

279

Because I also love like the life he's built in the past

280

but he probably also wants to return to his actual time period.

281

Anyway tonight I'm actually going to my friend Jordan's house.

282

I'm gonna have a sleepover at her place.

283

I haven't had a sleepover since I was a kid.

284

I feel like so.

285

I'm so excited.

286

I'm gonna grab sushi for us.

287

I think we're gonna watch a movie.

288

She just read this book.

289

I was just watching her vlog of her reading this book.

290

So I'm also very excited to talk to her about this book. so

291

i'm back from my sleepover with jordan i got to page 816

292

and everything i read at jordan's was so suspenseful

293

so intense we went through the actual day 11 22 63

294

which is what the entire book has been leading up to

295

but i don't want to say anything more

296

because i feel like the less you know about this book the better just the more like surprising

297

and good it is but i'm

298

so excited to binge the

299

ending right now

300

hello it's

301

editing ally just jumping in

302

because for some reason i forgot to film my final review

303

of 11 22 63 don't know what happened there also i am sick

304

so please excuse my nasally voice but i loved the book i loved the book

305

so freaking much i would say six out of five stars

306

literally broke the scale i think one of my new like all-time favorite books ever it just had everything

307

so many genres that i love so much to sink your teeth into i cared

308

so much about the politics the history the magic of the time travel the romance didn't expect this going in

309

but i think the romance is the thing

310

that will stick with me the most

311

and i think it was amazing how Stephen King wrote about the time in the 1960s.

312

At first when he steps back in time it feels

313

so magical like all this attention to detail of just how people lived then, how much things cost, how they talked, what kind of items they bought,

314

but then he also starts to weave in the really horrible parts of that time as well.

315

Very realistic and heartbreaking feel of what America was like in the 60s and the ending was such a roller coaster.

316

I feel like I felt every single possible emotion that ever exists

317

and just for like a book to take you on

318

that emotional roller coaster amazing anyway back to the video

319

and starting the last and third book it's a few days later

320

and it's time to start pet cemetery i'm literally so excited

321

and i just put the book on hold at my library

322

and it's now ready for me to get

323

and danny just left he's out of town again for the next few days

324

so we will be potentially reading stephen king's scariest book as he has said

325

while home alone for the next few days

326

so we have a little to do list for today number one i need to run to the library, well walk, I will be walking, and grab Pet Cemetery.

327

Two, I currently have a little side quest happening right now.

328

I joined this in-person book club with some of my friends and the meeting is tonight and our book is Swordheart.

329

And I realized yesterday afternoon that I hadn't read the book because I kind of forgot about the book club meeting happening.

330

So I have been absolutely binging Swordheart last night and today.

331

I know this is not related to our Stephen King content at all, but bonus book in this video.

332

I have two hours and 30 minutes left up the audiobook

333

and we meet for book club in three hours and 15 minutes.

334

So also on our to-do list, finish Thord Heart, attend book club, and then start Pet Sematary tonight.

335

Okay, daily task to-do list montage starting in three, two, one.

336

Let's go.

337

I'm back from my book club and I finished reading Sword Heart.

338

If you noticed in the footage, I did finish reading the book after my book club meeting, which was unfortunate.

339

I did have about 40 minutes left of reading and then it was time to go to my book club.

340

So I didn't finish it in time, but I feel like I read enough to where I could fully discuss the book with everybody.

341

And for Swordheart, I think I'm going to say like three to three and a half stars.

342

I did really enjoy it.

343

It's such a cute book.

344

It's a cozy fantasy book.

345

It was like an adorable, great time reading it.

346

Love the humor style.

347

It's very much like Princess Bride kind of humor.

348

But I have realized that I'm just really overall not a cozy fantasy person.

349

I love high stakes.

350

I want to be on the edge of my seat.

351

and then I also started Pet Sematary.

352

I'm on page 88 chapter 20 and I do feel pretty instantly hooked which is a great feeling.

353

So far nothing like really scary has happened

354

but I definitely have this very unsettled feeling with the town that this family lives in and specifically the Pet Sematary.

355

It's also really cool in the like author's note

356

or like forward kind of thing at the beginning Stephen King talks about

357

that he actually had this teaching position in real life

358

and he was living in this town temporarily for this teaching position and there was a pet cemetery

359

and it was spelled just like the title spelled incorrectly

360

so i was like that's so cool that he got the idea from an actual real location

361

it's two days later i'm making a little mediterranean salad

362

and some chicken salad for dinner just all the salads basically

363

and on page 169 of the book and things are definitely getting a lot spookier, a lot weirder.

364

Particularly, there was a scene a few chapters ago where they go to the pet cemetery and it was so creepy.

365

I was reading it this morning so I feel like I didn't get too spooked because it was daylight, but I feel like if I read it tonight, I would have been a little bit quaking in my boots.

366

I think what makes him such a good writer is his detail, like the description of the dad going to the pet cemetery,

367

the way he described like the noises that he hears.

368

The night time.

369

His skin like crawling.

370

His heart racing.

371

Looking at the guy he's with and seeing like this weird look in his eyes.

372

Like all those descriptions had me like I'm scared.

373

It felt like the moment in a horror movie where you know a jump scare is coming and you're like bracing.

374

It was cool to feel that in a book because

375

that was kind of like the big question I started out

376

with at the beginning of this video is like can words be as scary as like visuals in a movie

377

and this is the first moment where I started to feel like I think they could be.

378

I feel like I should not be holding a knife while reading a horror book.

379

I'm just gonna put that down.

380

Well I still have to cut so.

381

Update I'm in a blanket fort.

382

I built a blanket fort yesterday for a video I was filming.

383

Oh my gosh I've read

384

so much since I last updated you guys I've been hooked I'm on chapter 43

385

which is page 289 I think I have just about exactly 100 pages left

386

and something unexpected and very bad happened and now it's about to get worse

387

so that's kind of my only update is bad things bad

388

and I started listening to the Pet Sematary soundtrack from the movie

389

and it's definitely up to the spooky effect literally just listen to this

390

no I'm already getting spooked out just listening to that sound okay wish me luck

391

it's next night i'm having some chicken salad for dinner a lot of great dinners in this video

392

And Danny gets home in two hours, which is very soon.

393

So I want to see if I can finish the book before he gets back.

394

So I will truly have read this entire book home alone.

395

I'm a very slow reader though.

396

So I think I can do it in that amount of time.

397

But that would be like the bare minimum amount of time I would need.

398

I just got back from going on an evening walk and listening to the audiobook in the scene just described.

399

The image I have in my head of what is playing out.

400

I'm gonna scream.

401

Grotesque.

402

Oh my god.

403

I'm gonna switch back to the physical book now

404

and I'm actually scared because I feel like it's

405

so much scarier physically reading it with my music playing like I was saying yesterday.

406

Also I feel like my comments on this book in particular have been kind of vague

407

but I just truly feel like this book, the less you know, the better because everything happening, I had no idea was going to happen.

408

Dead is better.

409

Dead is better.

410

Okay.

411

Oh my God.

412

I finished the book last night.

413

I didn't quite finish it before Danny got back, but I almost did.

414

Also, I woke up this morning feeling sick, so sorry if I'm a little sniffly, but I really loved it.

415

I am so torn on my final rating whether to give 4.5

416

or 5 stars because I think most of the book I was at like 4.5, 4 stars and then the ending was a 5 star ending.

417

It had me oh so creeped out.

418

I think I am gonna say 5 stars.

419

I just I loved the ending.

420

This felt like true true horror.

421

I think Misery in comparison felt very like unsettling

422

but this one especially the ending was scary

423

and just to make you feel those feelings of like your skin crawling through writing.

424

Oh I love it.

425

It's that makes his writing

426

so well is they're not just like light fun horrors he

427

also weaves in serious themes under kind of the guise of horror

428

and I don't want to say the serious theme in this book

429

because it surprised me but just know it's there and then Daniel

430

and I also ended up watching the movie last night which was

431

so fun it was fun to see his reaction not knowing

432

anything he guessed the whole plot like 20 minutes into the movie

433

and I was like I thought the book was surprising I'm kind of bummed he guessed the plot

434

but the movie we watched the 80s version I liked it

435

I thought it was fun we both thought there was a few moments

436

that were a little more cheesy

437

or kind of had a little too much foreshadowing in them

438

which is how he guessed a lot of the plot

439

but I thought the movie hit all the main key plot points in the book

440

which I really liked I would say like 6.5 seven star rating for the movie

441

and it was so cool to try an entire new genre big horror fan but

442

if you guys have any more Stephen King wrecks I would

443

love to read a ton of his books I know he has

444

so many books so I'm not sure where to go next in my Stephen King journey

445

or if you just have more horror wrecks in general okay I'm not gonna go take a nap

446

because I'm sick but I hope you guys got some good Stephen King wrecks in this video

447

and I'll see you guys in my next video bye

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:

संरचना	वीडियो में
Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है	I've read · have called · I've never read
Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता है	be asked · is saved · being held
Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारी	people who don · books, which is · Halstead, which was
Past continuous was/were + -ing — बीते समय के किसी क्षण में चल रहा काम	was talking · was reading · was just crawling

ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण

वक्ता 149 बार संक्षिप्त रूपों का प्रयोग करता है, जैसे I'm, gonna, don't। इन्हें वैसे ही छोटा बोलें जैसा आप सुनते हैं।

“sh” और “zh” की ध्वनियाँ: genre /ˈ(d)ʒɑnɹə/, recommendation /ˌɹɛkəmɛnˈdeɪʃən/, gosh /ɡɑːʃ/, foreshadow /fɔːˈʃædəʊ/, cashier /kaˈʃɪə/
लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: cemetery /ˈsɛm.ɪˌtɛɹ.i/, recommendation /ˌɹɛkəmɛnˈdeɪʃən/, audiobook /ˈɔdi.oʊbʊk/, antagonist /ænˈtæɡənɪst/, incorrectly /ˌɪnkəˈɹɛk(t).li/

हिंदी भाषियों के लिए मुश्किल ध्वनियाँ:

/v/ और /w/ का फ़र्क़ — /v/ में ऊपर के दाँत निचले होंठ को छूते हैं, /w/ में होंठ गोल होते हैं: captive /ˈkæptɪv/, quake /kweɪk/, bittersweet /ˈbɪtɚˌswit/, weave /wiːv/, visually /ˈvɪzju.əli/
/z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: cosy /ˈkoʊzi/, cheesy /ˈt͡ʃiːzi/, visually /ˈvɪzju.əli/, dessert /dɪˈzɝt/, seasonal /ˈsiːzənəl/
शब्द की शुरुआत में s + व्यंजन — पहले “इ” न जोड़ें: spook /spʊk/, scare /skɛɚ/, scream /skɹiːm/, stake /steɪk/, spooky /ˈspuːki/

इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें

पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
0.75× गति से शुरू करें, एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें, और सहज लगने पर सामान्य गति पर लौटें।
अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर pumpkin, genre, intrigue जैसे शब्दों पर ध्यान दें।

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।
