1
Do Republicans have an electability problem?
2
We've heard a lot about the E-word when it comes to Democrats, not so much when it comes to Republicans.
3
But we should ask that question.
4
Donald Trump is an unpopular president leading an unpopular war.
5
Gas prices are sky high, and Republicans have nominated a bunch of scandal-plagued candidates,
6
like Ken Paxton in Texas or Max Miller in Ohio.
7
They even nominated candidates who supported Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
8
Here's Tom Tiffany, the Republican gubernatorial candidate in Wisconsin.
9
He voted not to certify Joe Biden's 2020 win.
10
Do you regret your vote, though?
11
I'm looking forward, not backwards.
12
So have Republicans set the stage for a backlash in the midterms?
13
This is going to be an election between common sense versus crazy.
14
Do you want to run a candidate that hates Thanksgiving?
15
And are they the ones with an electability issue?
16
That's this week on America Actually, where we talk to C.J.
17
Pearson.
18
Let's dig in.
19
C.J.
20
Pearson is only 24 years old.
21
He first went viral as just a 12-year-old who was willing to criticize President Obama.
22
And in conservative circles, it was a hit.
23
President Obama, you don't love America.
24
Since then, he's bounced around Republican politics and masked thousands of followers in the process.
25
He's been a political commentator on places like Fox News and Newsmax, one of the most prominent young Black voices in the MAGA movement.
26
Pearson wasn't always a Trump guy, but he's recently reinvented himself as one of the president's most vocal fans.
27
He even teamed up with Trump's favorite election lawyer,
28
Sidney Powell, to sue Georgia Governor Brian Kemp over Trump's false claims of a rigged 2020 election.
29
Since 2024, Pearson has found some influence in Washington as a social media creator
30
and a liaison for young Republicans looking to make the GOP cool again.
31
In fact, much of his work reminds me of what Jack Posobiec told me
32
when we were at the UFC fight in Washington, that Donald Trump drives a lot of his connection with younger voters through things like sports and culture.
33
You go and look at the places that pro wrestling goes and holds their events.
34
And then you go and cross-section that, cross-reference that with MAGA rallies.
35
It's the same group of people, the same sort of culture that speaks to each other.
36
But the other thing Jack told me was that none of that matters
37
unless Donald Trump focuses on the issues that matter most in the midterm elections, like affordability and the Iran war.
38
And of course, we have not seen that from the president so far.
39
Republicans love pointing the finger at Democrats, but are they willing to defend Trump's record in this midterm elections?
40
Let's ask Pearson and find out.
41
CJ Pearson, thank you for joining us on America Actually.
42
How are you?
43
Thank you for having me.
44
It's great to be here.
45
I first want to just ask a broader question
46
because we wanted to talk to you about kind of Republicans and the midterms and their own electability questions.
47
That E-word's been thrown around a lot about Democrats, but we want to think about how Republicans are on their own.
48
If you could rate Donald Trump's second term, one through 10, what would you give it?
49
Well, I think the president's doing incredibly well for the American people.
50
Promises made, promises kept in many ways.
51
I think if you look at this president who ran on securing our southern border, he's done it.
52
You look at this president who's talked about bringing down costs.
53
You know, he's brought down the cost of dairy, eggs.
54
He's achieved that.
55
And I think also this president is only just getting started.
56
He ran on no tax on tips.
57
He did that.
58
He ran under tax on overtime.
59
He did that.
60
You know, oftentimes I tell people the challenge of this administration is keeping
61
up the messaging to the same pace as the accomplishments of this president.
62
And so I think that there's a lot more work to do.
63
Thankfully, we have two more years to do it.
64
Can I get a number?
65
I think he's doing well.
66
You know, I will say I grew up in a place where there's always room for improvement.
67
So I'll give him an eight.
68
You're giving him an eight.
69
I wanted to just start there because Trump's approval rating has fallen, as I'm sure you have seen.
70
Why do you think the country isn't maybe on the same page as you?
71
You know, I think a lot of people are focused on their pocketbooks, right?
72
They're focused on domestic issues.
73
And I think that, you know, we have been very nationally focused over the course of the past few months as we've navigated
74
and dealt with the Iran conflict.
75
But I think that as we get ready to get through this last wave of primaries, I think you're going to see a change in this messaging
76
and a reset at the midterm convention in Dallas later this month or next month in September.
77
And I think you're going to hear this president talking about how he's made America more affordable, how he's kept Americans safe, far more safe than they were under President Joe Biden.
78
And I think that you'll see those numbers start to change.
79
And reminder, the only poll that matters is on Election Day.
80
There are many polls that had Kamala Harris beating President Trump in 2024, and that didn't happen.
81
Yeah, I don't want to be overly poll-reliant, but we've heard some of this directly from Republicans even.
82
We were at Donald Trump's UFC event in D.C talking to young men, and even there we heard people really come to be critical on three issues specifically.
83
Tariffs, the Iran war, and the handling of the Epstein files.
84
Just because he's not living up to what he said he was going to do, you know?
85
He said he was anti-war, you know, he said he was going to lower prices, and we're just not, like, that result is just not happening, you know, we're not seeing it.
86
I mean, you mentioned the kind of question of affordability.
87
Donald Trump has said, quote, I love the inflation.
88
And when asked by reporters about the public strain that has come from the conflicts with Iran, he said, I don't think about American financial situation.
89
I don't think about it.
90
How can you say the Republicans are going to run on affordability
91
if the president saying he doesn't care if Americans lives are unaffordable?
92
Well, I've often said that we can't see this entire affordability debate to the Democrats.
93
You know, the reason
94
that I think a lot of young people are giving a little bit even a flirtatious nod to the DSA
95
and their socialist communist candidates is because they're talking about an issue that's top of mind for them.
96
In the same way that when President Trump won in 2024, he was talking about issues that were top of mind to the American voter, which was the cost of living.
97
And so I think that we need to get back to that messaging.
98
I think this president has continued to deliver on that front.
99
You know, costs are coming down.
100
The economy is resurging.
101
We're seeing economic and global investment in this country.
102
And like anything we've seen before in Oklahoma, we're bringing back manufacturing with the aluminum smelting plant.
103
But the president's not saying this.
104
The president's saying, I love the inflation and I don't think about America's financial situation.
105
Do those words help Republican midterms candidates?
106
Well, I think the president has a lot of time to say a lot more things
107
because election day is pretty far away from now.
108
I think we have two or three months left.
109
And I think the president will make this case.
110
But I think what will also make the case is that the candidates that, you know, the Democrats are running
111
and nominating all across this country who are now affiliating themselves
112
with the socialist movement are not actually fighting for things that will actually ever work.
113
Socialism has never worked anywhere it's been tried.
114
And I think that this is going to be election between common sense versus crazy.
115
Do you want to run a candidate that hates Thanksgiving?
116
For the record, that candidate lost in the primary.
117
She would not be on the ballot in November.
118
She almost was there, though.
119
And that's the thing.
120
I'm glad common sense won the day in Wisconsin that the good people there love Turkey.
121
I want to go back to the question of affordability, because, you know, we were just at a gas station in Allentown, Pennsylvania, a toss-up swing district,
122
and the causational relationship that people have with the high gas prices and Donald Trump's war in Iran is really clear.
123
It doesn't take political genius to know why you're paying more at the pump.
124
We talked to one Trump voter who said specifically that he was upset with the president.
125
I blame the president because he indicated to us he's going to drop all these costs.
126
I know it can't happen overnight, but when is it going to happen?
127
It's outrageous.
128
Did you vote for him, Cass?
129
Yes, I did.
130
And did you vote for him on the premise that stuff like gas would be lower?
131
I voted for him with his promises to American people.
132
And I think he's let us down.
133
What is your message to that type of voter who's not looking at the Democrats on the other side, but is upset at Donald Trump's own words not matching the campaign trail to the actions?
134
I think my answer to them would be, I hear you, I feel you.
135
At the end of the day, I think the price at the pump and the price of the grocery stores are, again, the things that are top of mind for people.
136
While I think what the president is doing in Iran is helping avoid a global conflict
137
that my generation would have to continue with decades from now, I understand that there's going to be some short-term pain that people are going to have struggles with.
138
And I think that we've got to reach people and just acknowledge the fact that, yeah, there has been a slight increase in some of these prices.
139
And they matter a lot more to people than this kind
140
of broad idea of what we're doing is going to be good decades from now.
141
Right.
142
Yeah.
143
Yeah.
144
The macro long term isn't hitting when someone's worried about the short term.
145
It does a little remind me, though, of 2021, too, when there was a spike in inflation and Democrats, I would ask them similar questions and they would tell me,
146
oh, you know, there's kind of a macroeconomic story that we can tell.
147
And once inflation goes down a little bit, I think people will understand in the midterms.
148
I mean, and conservatives, I think folks like yourself were telling people
149
that Democrats were avoiding the kind of people's pain and that they weren't speaking to folks problems.
150
It's part of the reason, as you mentioned, that Donald Trump won in 2024 in the first place.
151
Is this administration now not just replicating that similar type of blind spot?
152
Yeah.
153
And so that's what I'm saying is we have to reorient the conversation
154
that we're having as a party around these domestic issues.
155
Or if not, we will lose disastrously in November.
156
The reality of it is, again, is that these foreign entanglements, they show America's strength.
157
I trust President Trump to get the job done
158
and to do it well far more than I ever would have Joe Biden.
159
But the reality of it is, again, is that everyday voters, everyday people my age, they're concerned about grocery store prices.
160
They're concerned about the price of the pump.
161
Those are the issues that we need to be talking about.
162
And I think that from now until November, our entire message should be, how do we make America more affordable again?
163
And on that point, President Trump has actually talked a lot about that.
164
Everything from supporting things like the Credit Card Competition Act, but also, too, he's gone to places like Nevada, where there's a huge hospitality industry and talked about the impact
165
that no tax on tips and no tax on overtime has had.
166
The people that benefit the most from policies like that are everyday blue collar Americans.
167
We need to talk about that ad nauseum.
168
Yeah, I hear that.
169
If we were to describe the Republican message in the midterms, it is what?
170
I think what I'll tell you what it needs to be.
171
It needs to be exactly what we just discussed, which is making America more affordable again.
172
I guess we're somewhat identifying a gap of where it is, though, and what you're saying it should be, right?
173
Like, do Republican candidates sound like what you're pretending here?
174
Well, they should.
175
But what I'll tell you is
176
that I think the message as it currently stands is that this is an election between communism versus common sense.
177
And I think that, you know, when it comes to that, I think that people are weary of you have some of these ideas that are being perpetuated by members of the DSA.
178
They want to eliminate the Senate.
179
They want to get rid of the presidency.
180
It's bizarre stuff that actually doesn't actually resonate with many Americans.
181
You also have people who are doubling down on things like biological men playing women's sports.
182
That's an 80-20 issue.
183
The more they talk about that, I got to tell you, I jump with glee because I would love to talk about that every single day until November, because I know that the American people are on our side on those issues.
184
Back in 2025 when Trump was first elected, as I always mentioned, you were part of a group profile with a bunch of media outlets who were seeming to revel in Trump's return,
185
a kind of return of cool, quote, kids moment in conservative culture.
186
How would you say that's gone?
187
Like, is Trump cool currently?
188
I think he is cool.
189
He's the coolest man in politics.
190
But what I'll tell you is that.
191
He's got him a little bar, I mean, he's got him a little bar.
192
Well, he is Barack Obama cool and he's Trump cool.
193
He's different kind of cool, you know?
194
So I think Donald Trump is cool.
195
And I think that what made these events cool was the fact
196
that I think that you can go to them and actually just have a good time.
197
And what we did is we actually didn't lead with politics for these events.
198
And our last event was actually recent.
199
It was 4th of July in celebration of America 250.
200
We had Moneybagg Yo! there performing.
201
And we weren't out there having some political rally.
202
We were just simply saying we love America and we're not going to apologize for it.
203
I hear you to some degree, but it does feel like Trump has lost the internet a little bit.
204
I mean, even if we think about some of the pushback that was happening around the Epstein vows, you have prominent podcasters.
205
If you want to think about the Joe Rogans of the world, we're certainly more willing to criticize him nowadays.
206
I mean, it does stretch kind of credibility a little bit to say
207
that Donald Trump's in the same place he was even in 2024, 2023.
208
Like, it doesn't seem like the timelines turned on him a little bit.
209
Well, I think it's important to acknowledge in 2024, and I think that people were fully aware of this fact, is that it was a fragile coalition of voters who were simply sick and tired of the status quo, right?
210
They were sick and tired of, you know, what they were hearing from Joe Biden.
211
They weren't ecstatic about the coronation of Kamala Harris.
212
And they were looking to someone who was speaking their language and offered solutions for the time.
213
And that was President Trump.
214
And so I think that we still have to we can't rest on our laurels.
215
I was always very, very like, I would emphasize this all the time.
216
It's like, just because Donald Trump did well with young people doesn't mean everybody else going to do well with young people.
217
And it's so interesting.
218
And you may have seen this anecdotally.
219
It's like, I saw the tide turn kind of after Venezuela.
220
Like, so Venezuela, we go into Venezuela, we drop in there, we kidnap Maduro.
221
People my age love that.
222
They were like, this is America.
223
Like we ran up in your trap.
224
We took over your trap.
225
And we also took your wife.
226
Like that doesn't get more American than that.
227
I loved it.
228
But then there was something about Iran where people were like, wait, this is a little different.
229
And I think that that is when we as Republicans, as conservatives had to communicate to people why this was the America first position to take.
230
I think we were a little slow on that.
231
I think the messaging has come around a little bit.
232
But I think we were slow initially to that.
233
I think that was a little bit of a problem.
234
I mean, I think the problem is substantive.
235
I think the problem is that Donald Trump said
236
that he would not start another foreign entanglement in the exact place he has done so.
237
He said he wouldn't start any new wars.
238
New wars.
239
We're not at war.
240
For reasons that he has not explained to the American people on behalf of interests they do not think is serving them.
241
Well, we're not going to split hairs.
242
He said no new wars.
243
You know, some would say this is, you know, a conflict or an entanglement.
244
But let me move on.
245
I think we both knew Charlie Kirkland.
246
I covered him a couple of times, and I know you occupied an overlapping conservative influencer space.
247
To the point you're making about building up institutions and connecting young people with Republicans, he occupied a unique space into doing that.
248
It somewhat seems to me like somewhat of the gap in what we're seeing now in
249
that landscape is one that he used to fill.
250
How big is that void?
251
You know, I think it's huge, and I think there will never be another Charlie Kirk.
252
and I think that his absence is definitely felt.
253
You see it across the conservative movement, which has kind of become like the Real Housewives of Atlanta.
254
Like it's interesting seeing all these warring personalities all the time.
255
It's like the way that I kind of get past it, I just say not my monkey, not my circus, but unfortunately I realize it is my circus.
256
And so, you know, it is very much your circus.
257
It is very interesting.
258
And I think that the thing
259
that Charlie was really able to do is to kind of talk to all these different coalitions of people
260
and bring them together and say, hey, let's figure out how we can align
261
and how we can actually communicate this in a way that we're staying united and that we're staying on message.
262
And I think that his absence has felt in that way.
263
A lot of these fights that typically would have happened behind the scenes are now fully on public view.
264
Hopefully by November, we're a united family, families fight, families bicker.
265
The Democrats know that well.
266
Hopefully by November, we get things together.
267
I would be remiss if I wouldn't ask you about Trump's cuts to the federal workforce, which had a particular effect on black communities.
268
And it seems as
269
if this administration has almost made a point to humiliate some kind of prominent members of black public service.
270
I'm thinking about Lisa Cook.
271
I'm thinking about other members of the military.
272
And polls consistently show that the majority of American people don't like this, that they don't think that this sort of targeting is in line with American values.
273
Is it in line with yours?
274
When you have seen Donald Trump say some of this stuff, the rollbacks to federal diversity programs, what have you thought?
275
Well, I think, you know, President Trump is an equal opportunity offender in the same way in which he'll go after a Lisa Cook.
276
He'll go after, you know, a Republican congresswoman like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who says something that she that he doesn't like.
277
And so I don't think this has anything to do with race in terms of DEI.
278
I've never really needed DEI to succeed.
279
I think I've been quite fine without it.
280
And I think that it's unfortunate that, you know, black people have to go through public life with an asterisk sex of their accomplishments
281
because people will question whether or not they earned it because of some, you know, quota or some, you know, racial program rather than their own merit.
282
I think that there are tons of people in our community who are hardworking, accomplished, whose accomplishments stand on their own.
283
And I don't think we need that.
284
I mean, I want to say this respectfully, but like your role in the conservative space has been as a young black man.
285
And that has been because of identity.
286
I mean, it is kind of rich to hear such a visceral reaction to words like DEI
287
when you could argue that the space
288
that you have occupied has been directly related to the fact that you are a young black conservative.
289
Like, doesn't that sound a little DEI, my friend?
290
No, I don't think it does.
291
I think I offer a unique perspective that, you know, oftentimes maybe wasn't, you know, platformed by mainstream media sources, but also, too, is actually really emblematic of our community.
292
There are so many conservative voices within the black community who, unfortunately, were not elevated.
293
We were treated as some type of monolith for far too long.
294
And I think that's why many in the media missed the
295
moment where you saw young black men who were not going to be sunned into voting for Kamala Harris, as President Obama attempted to do in 2024.
296
But beyond that, what I would say is that unlike, you know, folks like Ntaji Brown Jackson, who sits on the Supreme Court today because President Biden declared that he was going to appoint a black woman,
297
I've never filled a black job.
298
You know, that's never really been my thing.
299
I've never, you know, I focused on youth outreach and the overall movement.
300
And because I think a rising tide lifts all ships, the black community, the white community, Hispanics, black and brown people all around.
301
And so, again, I feel like you can make that point without picking on the Supreme Court justice.
302
But let us move on.
303
I want to ask a couple more.
304
Another trend among Republicans this cycle has been their refusal to acknowledge Joe Biden won the 2020 election.
305
You were previously one of Trump's mouthpieces for false election claims.
306
I wanted to ask you four years later, will you say if Joe Biden won the 2020 election?
307
Well, President Biden did occupy the White House for four years, so I guess that would mean that.
308
But what I would say in terms of- Is this the Republican line on this?
309
Why can't you say that Joe Biden won more votes than Donald Trump in the 2020 election and was duly elected?
310
I don't understand that.
311
Well, I think if he lived in the White House and he was president of the United States, then that has to be true.
312
Right.
313
But what I would say is that, you know, we continue to do all that we can to secure our elections.
314
You know, oftentimes it's so interesting to me, the Democrats, you know, prided themselves on being the party of election integrity in 2020 as they perpetuated the Russia collusion hoax.
315
And then all of a sudden, you know, when President Trump starts talking about the need to, you know, end non illegal illegal aliens from voting in our elections or, you know, God forbid, support something as basic as voter ID.
316
Now, all of a sudden, you know, it's terrible or to throw it back because I'm from Georgia.
317
When Stacey Abrams refused to concede her loss to Brian Kemp in 2018, she wasn't called an election denier.
318
But for some reason, when Republicans have the audacity to question irregularities, we're conspiracy theorists.
319
I think that's a little obtuse.
320
Listen, there are some points that I think you can concede in that.
321
But I just want to say, it's not as if the particular actions of Donald Trump after 2020 are on the same scale of the things you're mentioning.
322
And it's not like they didn't have material consequences.
323
Like people died at January 6th.
324
Like I've been to the federal courthouse where folks were in prison
325
and their families were outside holding vigils for days on end.
326
Like the harassment against poll workers were real.
327
Like the fact that there has not been evidence to substantiate the claims that you made in that election.
328
Is there not any regret that there has been material consequences from some of that misinformation?
329
Well, here's what I'll tell you.
330
When it comes to January 6th, anyone who committed a violent act or action, I condemn them.
331
I condemn them now.
332
But what I will say is that I think what's important
333
and what separates us from third world countries
334
and the democracy in a shining city on a hill
335
that our founding fathers intended us to be is having the ability to question the elections
336
and to make sure that they pass muster.
337
And I think that when anyone has, you know, this type of distrust of institutions and elections, it's not good for democracy left or right.
338
And so I think that the more that we can do to make sure
339
that people have faith in the integrity of our elections is a good thing.
340
And so I think that should be a bipartisan thing.
341
And I would love to work with my friends on the other side of the aisle to do that.
342
Let's focus our last question on the GOP in the midterms.
343
I know that you say that the argument is based on kind of how Democrats are out of touch.
344
But we have talked about some ways in which Donald Trump has not lived up to folks' expectations, particularly on things like prices and on things like the Iran war.
345
How does the GOP overcome that electability question?
346
What is their message when folks ask, is their life better than two years ago?
347
I think we've got to lock in.
348
I think we also need to prosecute the case
349
that it's going to be a lot worse under the Democrats if these crazy communists get into office.
350
And so I think that when you're looking at costs, we need to make that argument central.
351
We need to make that what we lead with.
352
And I think that we have to kind of pump the brakes on a lot of the international stuff.
353
And I think that we need to talk about the things that are actually affecting people's everyday lives at grocery stores, at gas stations, wherever it may be.
354
And I think that is how we can kind of turn the ship around.
355
Well, you know, when we talk about the Democratic candidates, you're saying they're, you know, the DSA candidates are far left.
356
And we've certainly explored some electability questions for them, some ways that I think they might have stances that are misaligned with the American people.
357
But I mean, so does Donald Trump.
358
And so he's endorsed scandal play candidates like Ken Paxton in Texas, like Max Miller in Ohio.
359
Like, why is that not just as much as a sign of a conservative version of extremism,
360
just as you are arguing that there's a Democratic or leftist version of that?
361
Yeah, because I think you're talking about folks who have dealt with issues in their personal lives, not necessarily their voting record.
362
Okay, maybe I should say Tom Tiffany, who didn't vote to certify the 2020 election, but I imagine you agree with him.
363
So that's a grand example.
364
Well, no, I think that was six years ago.
365
I don't think about 2020 anymore.
366
I think about 2026.
367
I think about 2028.
368
And so when I look at that, and I think that's important that we really make the case for, crazy communism versus common sense.
369
And I think that the American people are not going to go for that.
370
I guess I'm saying, does Donald Trump win the common sense argument?
371
Like, isn't crazy versus common sense an argument that Democrats can make and say Donald Trump is said crazy?
372
No, because I think Donald Trump definitely wins the common sense argument when we're running against folks, you know, who belong to a party that is now waging a war against Thanksgiving, who believe that, you know,
373
biological men should be playing women's sports.
374
Again, these are 80-20 issues.
375
And so I actually really like, you know, our odds here.
376
It's going to be hard, right?
377
It's always hard for the party that controls the White House to, you know, fare all too well in any midterm election but I think that we're going to overperform.
378
I think the Senate is going to be, we're going to hold onto the Senate.
379
The House will be a dogfight, but I think that I like our chances.
380
We'll see where we land.
381
Your argument is they care about war at Thanksgiving.
382
My argument is they care about the Iran war.
383
Like I think one of those matters a little more, but I hear you.
384
Thank you for joining us.
385
I really appreciate your time and I appreciate you like taking our questions.
386
We appreciate everyone who comes on.
387
So thank you for your time, CJ.
388
This was fun.
389
Thank you.
390
So a couple takeaways after talking to CJ.
391
Yes, he's young, but I do think he sounds like Republicans when they're forced to defend the actions of this administration.
392
It's easy for them to talk about how Democrats are so extreme, but it's a lot harder for them to defend whether Donald
393
Trump has actually followed through on his promises from the campaign trail.
394
But that's because he hasn't.
395
Donald Trump has broken key promises, like rising gas prices, or no new wars, or even things like his handling of the Epstein files.
396
So if this midterms is a battle over common sense, I think Democrats will take that bet, because that's one they think they can win.
397

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 | We've heard · have nominated · He's been |
| Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता है | been thrown · been tried · being perpetuated |
| Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारी | voter, which was · discussed, which is · people who are |
ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण
वक्ता 106 बार संक्षिप्त रूपों का प्रयोग करता है, जैसे we're, don't, you're। इन्हें वैसे ही छोटा बोलें जैसा आप सुनते हैं।
- “sh” और “zh” की ध्वनियाँ: inflation /ɪnˈfleɪ.ʃən/, accomplishment /əˈkɑm.plɪʃ.mənt/, backlash /ˈbækˌlæʃ/, nationally /ˈnæʃənəli/, socialism /ˈsoʊʃəlɪzəm/
- लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: accomplishment /əˈkɑm.plɪʃ.mənt/, entanglement /ɪnˈtæŋɡəlmənt/, perpetuate /pɚˈpɛt͡ʃəˌweɪt/, macroeconomics /ˌmæk.ɹoʊˌiː.kəˈnɒ.mɪks/, commentator /ˈkɑmənˌteɪtəɹ/
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: voter /ˈvoʊtɚ/, perpetuate /pɚˈpɛt͡ʃəˌweɪt/, overtime /ˈoʊ.vɚˌtaɪm/, consequence /ˈkɑn.sɪ.kwəns/, elevate /ˈɛləveɪt/
- /z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: oftentimes /ˈɔf.ənˌtaɪmz/, criticize /ˈkɹɪtɪsaɪz/, communism /ˈkɒmjᵿnɪz(ə)m/, liaison /liˈeɪˌzɒ̃/, emphasize /ˈɛm.fə.saɪz/
- शब्द की शुरुआत में s + व्यंजन — पहले “इ” न जोड़ें: scandal /ˈskændəl/, spike /spaɪk/, strain /stɹeɪn/
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 voter, inflation, accomplishment 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।
