शैडोइंग अभ्यास: Linking sounds rules #1 & 2 - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

Hi everyone!

Welcome to Hello Spoken English.

I am your host, Anne.

When you say, how are you, to someone, sometimes they say, good you.

What did they say?

What is it?

It is good and you.

If you move to North America, you will probably hear it every day,

but the first time you couldn't understand it and even thought that they were not speaking English.

Probably because most of the people who live in other countries had never heard those kinds of sounds before.

Why do they speak like that?

It would be easier if they spoke it word by word, like good and you.

Unfortunately, native speakers don't speak like that, just like you don't speak your native languages that way.

The first time it makes you frustrated and makes you want to give up learning English, but it's not your problem.

You haven't had the chance to hear real spoken English, and you haven't learned how to make sounds like native speakers.

We are here to teach you

and train you how to master linking sounds in order to hear spoken English step by step.

Today, we will talk about the linking sounds rules number one and number two.

The first rule is consonant and vowel blends.

When a word ends with a consonant and the next word starts with a vowel,

the sound can be blended. For example, hold on.

You can see hold ends with the consonant sound d and on starts with the vowel sound o.

So the sound is blended.

Hold on.

Please don't say it like hold on.

And another example is sleep in.

Sleep ends with the consonant sound P and in starts with the vowel sound I.

The sound is blended as well.

Sleep in.

Don't say it like sleep in.

Sleep in is the natural sound.

Let's take a look at it with a sample sentence.

Hold on a second.

Can you pick up some milk for us at the store?

Consonant and vowel blended.

Hold on.

Consonant and vowel blended.

Anna.

Consonant and vowel blended.

Pick up.

Consonant and vowel blended. For us.

Consonant and vowel blended.

Us at.

For us at.

If we write the sentence by pronunciation, we can change it like this.

Hold on a second.

Can you pick up some milk for us at the store?

Please listen and repeat after me.

Hold on a second.

Can you pick up some milk for us at the store?

Please speak it in a loud voice.

Hold on a second.

Can you pick up some milk for us at the store?

Let's practice more with an exercise.

I will say a sentence three times, and you will tell me what I said.

She is an old friend of mine.

She's an old friend of mine.

Did you get it?

I said she is an old friend of mine.

We can find rule number one in many places here.

Consonant and vowel blended.

She's an.

Consonant and vowel blended.

An old.

She is an old.

Consonant and vowel blended.

Friend of.

If we write the sentence by pronunciation, we can change it like this.

She's an old friend of mine.

Please repeat after me.

She's an old friend of mine.

Speed it up, please.

She's an old friend of mine.

The next rule is when the same or similar sounds meet together.

You can make them into one sound, not two separate sounds, especially if the same sounds meet together.

You need to make the sound a little bit longer. For example, this style.

You can see there are the same S sounds, so you need to speak it with one S sound, this style.

Can you hear that I make the S sound a little bit longer?

Please don't say this-a style.

Another example is need to.

The D and T are similar sounds.

You can skip one of the D or T sounds.

Need to or need do.

Don't say it like needa to.

If you speak like that all the time,

you won't hear the sounds when native speakers are speaking long sentences with their natural speed.

Let's take a look at it in more detail in a sample sentence.

I think this song is about the singer's black cat.

The same S sounds, so you can pronounce one of the S sounds for a little bit longer.

This song.

Consonant and vowel blended, song is.

And consonant and vowel blended, is about.

Song is about.

The T and the TH are similar sounds.

About the, not about a the.

And the last one is the same K sounds.

So, you can skip one of the K sounds.

Black cat.

100

I think some of you might have a question here.

101

The K and C are different sounds.

102

So why can we skip one of them?

103

You have to know a very important thing here.

104

In English, spelling is not equal to the pronunciation.

105

All the linking sounds rules we are teaching you are based on pronunciation.

106

C in cat is a K sound, so you can pronounce one K for a little bit longer.

107

If we write the sentence by pronunciation we can change it to this.

108

I think this song's about the singer's black cat.

109

Please repeat after me.

110

I think this song's about the singer's black cat.

111

Speak it in a loud voice, please.

112

I think this song's about the singer's black cat.

113

Let's move to the exercise.

114

I will say a sentence three times.

115

Please tell me what I said.

116

You don't need to prove it to them.

117

You don't need to prove it to them.

118

You don't need to prove it to them.

119

I said, you don't need to prove it to them.

120

The D and T are similar sounds.

121

You can speak one of them, need to, and consonant and vowel blended, prove it.

122

The last one is the same T sounds, so you can skip one, it to.

123

Prove it to.

124

If we write the sentence by pronunciation, we can change it to this.

125

You don't need to prove it to them.

126

Please repeat after me.

127

You don't need to prove it to them.

128

Louder please.

129

You don't need to prove it to them.

130

Is it difficult and so complicated?

131

Don't worry about that.

132

We are not teaching them in a typical way.

133

We will provide you with tons of different actors' voices and teach you the rules millions of times during our lectures.

134

We believe you will be familiar with them soon.

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।
