शैडोइंग अभ्यास: Linguistic Relativity: How Language Shapes Thought - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

1
Linguistic relativity theory suggests that the languages we pick up and use influence how we see the world - the perception of our surroundings, our sense of time, our memories, our behavior, and even our sense of self.
2
First, there’s our perception.
3
Each language has different words to describe the things around us and these differences change the way we perceive these things.
4
For example, an Italian might see objects as male or female, while an English speaker won’t —a phenomenon that extends to the perception of space.
5
The Kuuk Thaayorre, an aboriginal tribe, does not use left or right in their language.
6
Instead, they rely on cardinal directions: North, East, South, and West.
7
They might say “Pass me the salt on the South-west of the pepper”.
8
It's probably no coincidence that they have supernatural navigational skills.
9
There is the sense of time.
10
Because languages are written in different directions, people who write left to right will perceive the sequence of events accordingly.
11
Speakers of Arabic and Hebrew might do so the other way around.
12
In the Amele language in Papua New Guinea, there are 3 forms of past tense: Today’s past tense, yesterday’s, and remote past tense.
13
To use the correct verb, speakers need to pay close attention to when something has happened — and hence may perceive the past in greater detail.
14
Language also affects our Memories.
15
In English, if a child breaks a vase accidentally, we may say “he broke the vase” — putting the responsibility on the kid.
16
In Spanish people would say “El jarrón se rompió” or “The vase broke” — giving more credit to the environment — a small difference with big consequences.
17
Studies show that speakers of languages like Spanish that tend to consider these kinds of events accidental are less likely to recall the people involved.
18
In languages that emphasize an intention, the actors are remembered more clearly.
19
And if things end up in court the accused is more likely to be found guilty, if the language used during the trial is active, like English.
20
Then there is our behavior.
21
Languages are often associated with culture, and with the context in which it was learned.
22
As a result, those who speak various languages, access different parts of themselves.
23
One study on Spanish-English bilinguals showed that people exhibit different personality traits when switching their language.
24
When speaking English, subjects were more agreeable, but when they switched to Spanish they were more neurotic.
25
And finally, our sense of self.
26
The words we speak also influence how we feel about ourselves.
27
Self-affirming language for example activates brain areas linked to reward and self-perception and can increase our confidence — an effect that extends to how we perceive pain.
28
Bilinguals report greater levels of pain when they speak the language to which they relate the most.
29
The theory: if one language represents a bigger part of their identity, they also perceive the sensations inside their body with greater intensity.
30
With about 7000 languages all around us, nobody knows exactly how they affect our minds.
31
But they certainly frame our thoughts and influence the way we look at the world.
32
In Thai for example, the word for heart, 'jai', is woven into their language to describe a variety of human traits.
33
Someone friendly is “jai dee”, literally a good heart.
34
Someone that’s patient is “jai yen” a "cool heart " and someone generous, is “jai gwang” a "big heart”.
35
As Benjamin Lee Whorf, the linguist behind the theory wrote: "Language is not merely a reproducing instrument for voicing ideas but rather is itself the shaper of ideas, the program and guide for the individual's mental activity." So, if you ever learn a new language, remember: you're not just learning new words.
36
You're opening your mind to a new way of seeing and interacting with the world.
37
What do you think?
38
Do you speak more than one language?
39
And if so, do you feel like your behavior changes when you switch between them?

इस वीडियो के साथ बोलने का अभ्यास क्यों करें?

इस वीडियो से अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करने से आपको भाषा के प्रति एक नया दृष्टिकोण मिलेगा। शैडोइंग तकनीक के माध्यम से, आप सही उच्चारण, वाक्य संरचना, और संवाद के प्रवाह को बेहतर तरीके से समझ सकते हैं। जब आप वीडियो में दिए गए संवादों को सुनते हैं और उनका अनुकरण करते हैं, तो आप न केवल शब्दों को याद करते हैं, बल्कि उन्हें सही संदर्भ में उपयोग करना भी सीखते हैं। इससे आपकी अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास और आत्मविश्वास बढ़ता है।

व्याकरण और अभिव्यक्तियाँ संदर्भ में

  • परिस्थिति का वर्णन: वीडियो में विभिन्न भाषाओं के संदर्भ में वर्णन करने की अद्भुत क्षमता का उपयोग किया गया है। जैसे, "उत्तर-पश्चिम में नमक पास करो" इस वाक्य में स्थान की स्पष्टता को दर्शाता है।
  • समय के संदर्भ: "तीन प्रकार के भूतकाल" के उदाहरण से यह स्पष्ट होता है कि कैसे विभिन्न भाषाएँ समय की अनुभूति को प्रभावित करती हैं।
  • संदेश का स्वरूप: "वह टूट गया" और "उसने तोड़ा" जैसे वाक्य संरचनाएँ दर्शाती हैं कि कैसे जिम्मेदारी का अहसास शब्दों से प्रभावित होता है।

सामान्य उच्चारण की बाधाएँ

वीडियो में कुछ शब्दों का उच्चारण चुनौतीपूर्ण हो सकता है। उदाहरण के लिए, "jai" और "heart" जैसे शब्दों का उच्चारण ध्यान से करना आवश्यक है। यह सुनिश्चित करें कि आप ध्वनि का सही उच्चारण करें, क्योंकि यह आपकी अंग्रेजी उच्चारण में सुधार के लिए महत्वपूर्ण है। इसके अलावा, उन वाक्यों पर ध्यान दें जो विभिन्न भावनाओं को व्यक्त करते हैं। जब आप इन शब्दों का उच्चारण करते हैं, तो आप न केवल उनकी ध्वनि, बल्कि उनकी भावनात्मक गहराई को भी समझते हैं।

इस वीडियो का अभ्यास करके, आप अपनी अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग कौशल को न केवल बढ़ा सकते हैं, बल्कि एक नई दृष्टि से सोचने की क्षमता भी विकसित कर सकते हैं। यह आपको न केवल नई भाषाएँ सीखने में मदद करेगा बल्कि विश्व को एक नई नजर से देखने की प्रेरणा भी देगा।

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

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

संरचनावीडियो में
Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता हैare written · are remembered · be found
Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारीpeople who write · those who speak

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।
