Pratica di Shadowing: 10 Apps - EVERYONE should use!!! - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

Creazione lezione...
1
There are over 10 million apps out there, and I found 10 that are so useful.
2
You're going to want to start using them right now, starting with this one.
3
Okay, now I recommend everyone gets this app.
4
It's called Blip, and you can get it from the Play Store or the App Store.
5
And actually, make sure you also download this to another device, like your laptop or PC, and you can get it at blip .net.
6
Once you've got it installed, enter your email address on both your devices.
7
Then how it works is you can select a bunch of files or photos, documents, videos, anything, tap the share icon, Look for the blip icon with your other device's name,
8
tap on it and bubam, you have sent those files to it instantly.
9
Which is so awesome, but what's even better is if you tap
10
that search icon and type in the email address of anyone else using blip, like your friends, if you just tap on their name, then select photos or files, again, whatever it is you want to send,
11
and then click done, boom, it even sends to them, even if they're in a completely different location.
12
Meaning the other person or device doesn't need to be right next to you.
13
You can blip any files to any device from your house to your friend's house, or you can even send massive files to your work device,
14
and it'll automatically accept them no matter how big they are.
15
This all works by basically connecting any two Wi -Fi's together, and it is totally free, just so useful.
16
But definitely not as useful as the last app on my list, which basically gives you YouTube Premium for free.
17
But before I show you that, check out this next useful app.
18
Now this next app is called QR Alarm and see if you can guess what it does.
19
When you open it up you'll see there's not much there except the option to create an alarm.
20
But before we set that up you're going to need a QR code
21
and you can create one at qrcodeeditor .com then generate your own one it's super simple.
22
Now you're going to print that QR code and stick it up somewhere in your kitchen you'll see why in a sec.
23
Then you jump back into the QR Alarm app and create an alarm now.
24
You set it for whenever you wake up.
25
You can choose what days you want it to repeat and trust me, you will not need the snooze option so turn that off too.
26
Here's the final part.
27
You click on scan your own QR code then go ahead and scan the QR code you made earlier.
28
Click save and now check this out.
29
If you're a heavy sleeper and struggle to wake up, QR alarm will ring like a normal one but the only way to turn it off is if you actually get up,
30
walk to where you stuck that QR code and scan it.
31
That is the only way to turn off the alarm.
32
It is surprisingly useful if like me you have a gazillion alarms every morning.
33
But now that you're out of bed and awake you might want to try this useful app.
34
So this next app is basically if Google Maps had a baby with the weather app but with a twist.
35
It's called weather on the way and I wish I knew about this one sooner.
36
At first it kind of looks like a boring map app
37
but once you punch in where it is you want to go
38
and select it it doesn't just show you the route it
39
also shows you the weather along the route based on
40
when you'll actually be there uh wow there's this nifty little slider
41
that shows you how long the trip is going to take plus the weather
42
that you'll hit at each point based on the time you arrive
43
so it's literally like looking into the future on top of
44
that you get a timeline that lets you scroll ahead
45
and see exactly what the weather is going to be like depending on
46
when you leave there's a whole bunch other cool things as well like checking the precipitation, the wind or even the UV index.
47
You can also add stops along the way if you want to do
48
that and you can even change your form of transportation so whether that's driving, cycling or hiking.
49
Like that's extremely useful for any trip you want to take
50
but if you want a fun way to count down to that trip check this app out.
51
Now this is seriously something I wish all phones came with out the box.
52
This app is called countdown pretty progress.
53
Go ahead, give it a download, and when you open it up, the first thing you'll see is this option to create an event.
54
You've got a few different options to pick from, but if none of those work, click on give me an idea and you'll get a ton more.
55
Or if you want, you can choose any one of these and rename it yourself, like a mine.
56
Lol.
57
Okay, then once that's done, you're going to pick the dates you want to count down to, whether that's this year or next year, and you can even choose a specific time if you want.
58
But now here's the fun part, you can actually customize it.
59
So you can change the style of the font, you can change the colors, and once you're happy with everything, just tap on create event.
60
And after that, you just need to add the pretty progress widgets to your home screen, pick the countdown you just created.
61
You can also resize it if you want, very nifty.
62
And just like that, you've got the sick new widget that is constantly reminding you about that important date.
63
There's a few different styles you can choose from as well, depending on your wallpaper and your app icons.
64
But for some reason, the iPhone gets a few extra fun styles like this Windows one.
65
Very ironic.
66
But still cool though.
67
So now that you know how to do that, set a countdown timer for when the robots are going to take over because this next app...
68
The woman was too stunned to speak.
69
Now, let me tell you guys, if you install this app on any phone, it'll instantly turn into a super smartphone.
70
It's called Panda Automate with Voice.
71
And let me just show you what it does.
72
When you open it up for the first time, you've got to log in with your email and give it permission to a bunch of things.
73
Like, I'm honestly surprised it didn't ask for a blood sample.
74
But anyway, let me show you why it needs all that access.
75
Once you've done everything, when you tap on this triangle it activates it
76
and then you can ask it for anything like open YouTube find a tips
77
and tricks video on the Samsung s25 ultra
78
and select the first one then give it a few seconds
79
and bam sure I'll open YouTube search for Samsung s25 ultra tips
80
and tricks and play the first video for you task completed successfully
81
so cool you can also tap and hold the side key to activate it
82
and also ask it to do something straight from here, like open the camera and start recording a video.
83
Sure.
84
I'm opening the camera, switching to video, setting the zoom to 3x, and starting the recording for you.
85
Task completed successfully.
86
Okay, that's pretty freaking crazy.
87
But what's even crazier is we got tech like this before we got GTA 6.
88
Come on.
89
I mean, sure, you are giving a robot full control over your phone, but is it going to take over the world?
90
Well, not unless you're using this next app.
91
So I've actually recommended this app before, but it is so useful, I gotta recommend it again.
92
It's Surfshark, and yes, you've probably heard about its VPN already, but have you heard about their new features?
93
Because they're actually super nifty.
94
Okay, so right off the bat, at the very top, you've got the obvious one, the VPN, which you can basically use to watch free movies and series on Tubi anywhere in the world,
95
unlock the entire Netflix library, and most importantly, browser internet without anyone ever knowing what you're searching for.
96
But here's what's new.
97
There's now an antivirus that if you turn on, you basically become unhackable.
98
Wow.
99
You've also got data leak alerts, which lets you know if your emails, your credit cards, or identification ever gets leaked and falls into the wrong hands.
100
And you can actually prevent that with a new alternative ID feature.
101
So this creates a fake email, a fake address, fake name, you name it, and you can then use that online to protect your real info, which is so useful.
102
And to top it all off, there's even this new incognito search browser in here that's probably safer than using Chrome.
103
So yeah, this isn't just a VPN anymore.
104
So if you want to stay safe, then head to surfshark .com forward slash hails or use code hails at checkout for four extra months of Surfshark VPN.
105
But if you want to get focused, then check this out.
106
All right, so this app actually went viral not too long ago.
107
It's called Focus Friends, and it's actually kind of addictive.
108
You start by giving your bean a name.
109
I'll explain what that is in a sec.
110
I just went with Mr. Bean, of course, but you can pick anything.
111
And once that's done, this is your bean, and this is your bean's home.
112
So what now?
113
Well, when you tap on Focus and set a timer for something like 60 minutes and turn on Deep Focus, as soon as you hit start, but your bean starts knitting socks.
114
And here's the catch.
115
If you leave the Focus Friends app to open a social media app like TikTok or Instagram, you actually get a warning and it won't open the app.
116
The only way to open it is to go back into Focus Friends and stop your bean from knitting.
117
But if you do that, the socks it knitted will get ruined.
118
And if they're ruined, you cannot use them to upgrade your beans home from this to something like this.
119
Yeah.
120
And that's basically the whole app so it stops you from doom scrolling
121
so you can focus on whatever it is you're doing
122
and then it pays you in socks to upgrade
123
and customize your beans home just like i've done for my little mr bean why is it a bean
124
and why is it knitting socks i don't know
125
but it really is a fun way to save time
126
and now that you've got all
127
that time why not use it on this next app so
128
if you have ever tried to cook something then you need this app.
129
It's called D -Glaze.
130
Give it a download then open it up and sign in with your email.
131
And now check this out.
132
Next time you're on socials and not knitting socks.
133
If you find a recipe
134
that looks good tap the share icon then share to find the D -Glaze app
135
and once you select it click this add to your library.
136
Now this is where the app gets so useful.
137
Inside it if you tap that little book icon voila your Instagram video recipe is saved as an actual recipe.
138
There's a title, there's a list of ingredients, and even instructions on how to make it.
139
You can then click start cooking and it'll show you every ingredient so you can check them off, plus the instructions.
140
And if you ever get stuck, you can always jump back and watch the video.
141
There are actually a bunch of other apps out there like this, but...
142
They're all super expensive and this one's basically for you.
143
So yeah, that's basically how you can hack your clicking.
144
But here's how you can hack something even better.
145
Okay, now this is such a cool app.
146
I've got this frame right and to make sure it's leveled, I just opened up my quick settings panel, turned on the secret bubble leveler and done.
147
Easy peasy.
148
I even have an SOS controller that uses my flash.
149
I have a coin flip controller plus a dice roll controller and a bunch of other tools.
150
And if you're wondering how to get this, it's from a secret app called Toolkit Tiles.
151
And the reason it's secret is because it's not actually on the Play Store.
152
But to get it, it's super simple.
153
You go inside your settings and look for Google Play Protect.
154
Open this app, then select the settings icon, toggle it off, choose pause, and don't worry, this is actually safe.
155
Then next you're going to head to this website.
156
And don't worry, there's a link in the description scroll down to the bottom
157
and under assets download this apk then install it
158
and once that's done go to your quick settings panel tap the edit icon add a new control
159
and verb bam you'll see a bunch of new controls here
160
like the coin flip the dice the leveler there's even a compass option
161
and a screenshot option just so useful am i right
162
so that's how you hack your quick settings panel but what if you could hack youtube
163
now youtube if you're listening take notes
164
because this app is nuts it's called youtube advanced
165
and it looks like normal youtube and some of you may have heard of it
166
but it's basically youtube premium on steroids like for free like
167
there's literally zero ads completely gone the dislike button is back
168
you can play youtube videos with your screen off whoa and a bunch of other awesome features like this.
169
I mean, that's pretty freaking crazy, but there is a catch.
170
It's kind of really hard to get, so prepare yourself.
171
First off, you're not going to find it in the Play Store, obviously.
172
The only way to get it is through this website.
173
Again, link in the description, but in here, you've got to download something called Revanced Manager.
174
Once it's downloaded, install it, then open it up and give it permissions.
175
Luckily, nothing too insane, no blood sample or anything.
176
Then once it's all done you're going to go into the patcher.
177
Tap select an app, choose this version of YouTube.
178
It'll then prompt you to follow a link.
179
Go ahead follow the link and tap this first option.
180
In here will be another APK.
181
Go ahead download that and then head back to the revanced manager.
182
Now you're going to select YouTube again, select from storage and choose the one you just downloaded.
183
Then click on patch.
184
It'll do its thing and stick with me here once the install button pops up.
185
Hit install and you're done.
186
Now you've got a clone of YouTube, but this one's called YouTube Revanced and you can use it instead of the normal YouTube app,
187
except remember it is totally ad -free with a bunch of cool features.
188
Told you it was difficult, but so worth it.
189
So now that I've shown you 10 super useful apps, make sure you hit the subscribe button because we're on the road to 3 million.
190
And if you want to see some more app videos, you can check out these, but I'll see you in the next one.
191
Toodles!

Perché questo video è ottimo per la pratica di conversazione in inglese?

Il video è un'ottima risorsa per chi vuole migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la fluidità: il narratore usa un tono colloquiale, frasi corte e espressioni comuni come "bubam" o "boom" che rendono il discorso naturale e accessibile. La struttura, con descrizioni passo passo di app utili, crea un contesto concreto, perfetto per esercitarsi a seguire un argomento e ripetere frasi in contesto. Ecco perché è ideale per lo shadowspeak, la tecnica di imitazione del parlante per acquisire intonazione e ritmo.

Analizziamo frasi chiave: perché suonano naturali?

  • "Which is so awesome, but what's even better is if you tap that search icon...": L'uso di "which" per collegare frasi e "but what's even better" per enfatizzare un punto successivo è tipico del parlato spontaneo. La parola "awesome" è informale e comunemente usata, rendendo il discorso vicino alla vita quotidiana.
  • "You set it for whenever you wake up. You can choose what days you want it to repeat...": La ripetizione del soggetto "you" e la semplicità delle frasi (senza congiunzioni complesse) riflettono come si parla nella vita reale, dove la chiave è la chiarezza. Questo tipo di struttura è facile da imitare con lo shadow speak.
  • "It's called weather on the way and I wish I knew about this one sooner.": L'espressione "I wish I knew" è un modo comune per esprimere rimpianto, e "sooner" aggiunge una sfumatura di urgenza. La combinazione di nome dell'app e opinione personale crea un flusso naturale, tipico di una conversazione tra amici.

Una routine di pratica: repeat-and-record per il shadowspeaks

Per esercitarti, segui questi passaggi: 1) Ascolta un frammento del video (5-10 secondi) e focalizzati su intonazione e pausa. 2) Ripeti immediatamente dopo, imitando il tono e il ritmo (questo è lo shadowspeak). 3) Registrati mentre ripeti e confronta con l'originale: nota le differenze nella pronuncia di parole come "QR code" o "precipitation". 4) Ripeti per 5-10 minuti al giorno, concentrandoti su frasi che ti sembrano difficili. Con questa routine, migliorerai non solo la pronuncia inglese ma anche la capacità di rispondere in tempo reale. Prova con l'app Blip o QR Alarm: le descrizioni concrete ti aiuteranno a memorizzare frasi utili per le conversazioni quotidiane!

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
