1
This is one of the great lessons I've learned about saying sorry, which is saying you're sorry doesn't mean you're wrong.
2
All it means is you take accountability for the thing that you said or did.
3
That's all it means.
4
And my analogy that I love to use, if you're at the airport and you're walking through the airport with your wheelie bag, your wheelie bag accidentally rolls over someone's foot,
5
you turn to look at them, we always say sorry.
6
Do you know why we say sorry?
7
Because it's our wheelie bag.
8
Yes, we did not intend to run over someone's foot, but it is our wheelie bag.
9
And so when you run over someone's foot, you immediately turn around and say, I'm so sorry.
10
And they're like, don't worry about it.
11
That's a really good analogy.
12
That's how accountability works, which is even if you didn't intend it, it's still your words.
13
It's still your actions.
14
It's still your wheelie bag.
15
Just take accountability for those things, and we're good.
16
Nobody's looking for right or wrong.
17
We're looking for accountability for words or actions.

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।
