पाठ बनाया जा रहा है...
1
Less than 347, Carnival.
2
Clayann talks about the big tradition of Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago.
3
Listen to the end for bonus study materials.
4
Now, let's begin.
5
So, Clay -Ann, can you talk a little bit about Carnival in your country?
6
Actually, Carnival in my country started a very long time ago, after the end of slavery.
7
And now it has kind of changed a lot into a big festival.
8
where everybody basically dances in the street wearing very little clothes, very colorful costumes listening to music.
9
It lasts for two days.
10
It's called Carnival Monday and Tuesday.
11
And for those two days, that's when we have the big parades in the street, with big costumes, small costumes, and a lot of music.
12
The days leading up to Carnival may actually be more important.
13
than the two days of Carnival themselves,
14
because that's when we have a lot of concerts and competitions for calypsonians and Calypstonians.
15
Uh...
16
people who sing Calypso, which is music that's native to Trinidad and Tobago.
17
and We have a lot of steel band festivals and steel bands are like big musical bands who play the steel drums.
18
which were invented in Trinidad and Tobago.
19
So this is a national holiday everything is closed down for at least a week.
20
A week?
21
Yeah, even before before Carnival Monday and Tuesday.
22
It's closed from the Wednesday of the week before.
23
So Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday.
24
And then everybody goes right back to work?
25
On the following Wednesday is Ash Wednesday.
26
It started I think as a kind of a religious festival.
27
I've seen examples of it all over the world including Europe.
28
And actually it started from the Catholic Church.
29
So on Ash Wednesday, people are supposed to go to church and confess their sins and get ashes.
30
And I can assume that we probably have a lot to confess after Carnival Monday and Tuesday.
31
So is it usually pretty much the same thing every year or does it change a little bit?
32
It always changes because it's not government run.
33
The carnival bands, that means the bands of people who parade the streets in different costumes, they're actually competing with each other to get a lot of people.
34
to win the band of the year and their judge on their costumes.
35
So we have private owners of bands who design different costumes every year with different themes.
36
And they have to portray these themes on the street.
37
And the aim is to win.
38
the competition for band of the year and every year the costumes are different - Actually,
39
Carnival is launched from the year before.
40
So I think this year Carnival will be launched somewhere in...
41
Actually, I think they already launched it last month, July.
42
and so from july you're going to see all the bands um coming out with their
43
costumes on display for people to decide which band they want to play in, which costumes they would like to use.
44
artists start to release their sing their Calypso singles because there's all there's also competition for best calypso and Um...
45
and other different types of music.
46
which are not as big as calypso music in Trinidad and Tobago.
47
Welcome back.

इस पाठ के बारे में

इस पाठ में, आप त्रिनिदाद और टोबैगो में आयोजित होने वाले कार्निवल के बारे में सुनेंगे। यह एक बड़ा त्योहार है जहाँ लोग रंगीन पोशाकों में डांस करते हैं और संगीत का आनंद लेते हैं। इस पाठ के दौरान, आप ध्वनि को सुनेंगे और उसके साथ संवाद का पाठ भी करेंगे। यह अभ्यास आपको अंग्रेजी उच्चारण में सुधार और shadowspeak तकनीकों के माध्यम से अपनी सुनने और बोलने की क्षमताओं को बढ़ाने में मदद करेगा।

मुख्य शब्दावली और वाक्यांश

  • confess your sins - अपने पापों को स्वीकार करना
  • government run - सरकारी संचालित

अभ्यास के टिप्स

इस वीडियो का संवाद सुनते समय, अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग तकनीक का उपयोग करें। इसे करने के लिए, वीडियो को रोकें और वाक्यों को दोहराएँ। खासकर जब क्लायन कार्निवल के बारे में बता रही हैं, तो उनकी गति और टोन को अनुकरण करने का प्रयास करें। इससे आपके उच्चारण में सुधार होगा। याद रखें कि shadow speech में, तेजी से बोलने की कोशिश करें, जो आपकी सुनने की क्षमता को विकसित करेगा। यूट्यूब से अंग्रेजी सीखें और इस संवाद के साथ अभ्यास करते रहें। यह न केवल आपकी सुनने की क्षमता को नहीं बल्कि आपकी बोलने की क्षमता को भी निखारेगा।

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।
