Hola.
2
Hoy vamos a hablar sobre los recuerdos usando el pasado.
3
Aida, ¿dónde estabas?
4
Perdón, estaba en el baño.
5
Mmm...
6
Decía que vamos a hablar sobre recuerdos usando el pasado.
7
Oh, es un gran tema para practicar el imperfecto.
8
¿Vamos?
9
Vamos.
10
David, I think you're still with the applications of the citas.
11
No, no, no, no. Applice, a mistake.
12
I lost them.
13
What happens is that I have the mobile full of photos and I don't have space.
14
Ah.
15
So what I'm doing is I want to save photos to have space for new photos.
16
Ah, now I understand.
17
and I've found many great photos.
18
For example, look, I'll show you.
19
Let's see.
20
Oh, that was you?
21
Yes, very good.
22
Have you recognized me?
23
The truth is that no. I imagined that if you had a child's photo on your phone, it was because you were.
24
Yes, well, I am.
25
I don't know, I think it was a little different.
26
I had glasses, I was also a little more shy, a little grueling too.
27
Yes, for example, when I was scared, I hit my head against the wall.
28
Wow!
29
So I had a little different humor now.
30
And what kind of situations did you get and hit your head against the wall?
31
Well, I suppose when I had to go to school.
32
Wow, very easy to get upset.
33
I didn't like school much.
34
And also when I had to eat vegetables.
35
I didn't like vegetables.
36
And then you went to the wall and...
37
Bam, bam!
38
Yes, yes, yes.
39
I was a little crazy.
40
But this photo is very fun because I was in a park and my mother told me, Oh, you're very cute.
41
I'm going to make you a photo.
42
I didn't get angry.
43
Okay?
44
And just after...
45
That's good, because there was no wall.
46
Exactly, exactly.
47
But just after the photo,
48
I fell in that lake and my parents had to take me.
49
And you can see that in this photo I had long legs, so it was a bit cold.
50
Oh, poor, wow.
51
And how many years did you have in this photo?
52
I think I was about 3 or 4 years old.
53
You were a little.
54
And you, Aira, how did you get when you were a child?
55
I was a little...
56
I was a little...
57
I think.
58
My parents would say that I was a little bit moved, a little bit fat, Well, like now, Yes, I have some photos.
59
Do you want to show me? Of course!
60
Let's see.
61
Here in this photo, I was in the field, and my grandparents had many animals.
62
Ah!
63
I thought it was a cat.
64
No, it was a cat.
65
Yes, yes, yes.
66
And, well, I liked going to go there, and, honestly, I played with the birds,
67
and I always played in the sand, like in the ground, and I just used to go.
68
Well, that was what I liked to me.
69
Yes.
70
You're very nice.
71
You were very nice, I think.
72
I had about six years here, I imagine.
73
And the deer never attacked you?
74
No, I didn't.
75
I was good with the deer.
76
I played with them, but I didn't do anything.
77
Ok, ok, ok.
78
Yes, yes.
79
And in this photo, what were you doing?
80
Well, in this photo, I was...
81
Poor deer.
82
Well, I think the deer was good.
83
I had it in my arms and I was taking care of it.
84
And I also saw a video where I talked to the birds.
85
I said, oh, you've been treated well.
86
Now...
87
You taught Spanish to birds. Can you imagine?
88
No, no, by the way, I didn't get that far.
89
That's good.
90
So, do you have any photo of your adolescence?
91
Yes, not on my phone, for luck.
92
Oh.
93
It's that adolescence is complicated, eh?
94
But I don't understand why there's such a mystery.
95
Aida, how are you?
96
At that time, the fashion was strange.
97
There were clothes with very attractive colors, like red clothes and a lot of colors.
98
Do you remember those huge chains, huge arrows?
99
Yes.
100
I had this.
101
Obviously, I'm not going to show you that photo.
102
But you have one, perhaps?
103
Yes, yes, yes.
104
I have some photos of this time.
105
I'm going to show you.
106
What a chance to see them.
107
Wow!
108
This was you?
109
Yes, I didn't recognize you.
110
Wow, no?
111
Well, you have a little hair, but you have a little hair.
112
They're really beautiful.
113
Yes, I had the hair more rizzed and the hair more long.
114
Yes.
115
So, I think it was a little different.
116
Wow.
117
You were a little red.
118
I imagine you went to the beach, right?
119
Yes, I suppose.
120
I think I was on vacation in Andorra,
121
Because with my family we always went to Andorra on vacation and my look was very rocker.
122
I played in a rock group and I liked to wear the long hair.
123
No, no, you were fantastic.
124
Yes, honestly, now I'm a bit ashamed when I see this photo I think I wouldn't wear the hair like this now.
125
What things are you regretting your past?
126
Well, what I've been telling you a little bit.
127
Especially this so much so inspiring.
128
At that time I loved it, but obviously now it's something I wouldn't buy for me.
129
Especially that.
130
And the huge pendants.
131
Yeah.
132
Do you have more photos that you want to show me?
133
Uh...
134
I have a picture, I'll show you right now.
135
Let me tell you, you're probably going to have a problem with the imperfection and in general with all the past.
136
It's normal, it's a topic that you can improve just by practicing it.
137
Totally, Aida.
138
I think that the past, basically, you'll learn by practicing it.
139
That's why we always think about Easy Spanish We always think about the way you can do it, in a more relaxed way.
140
And we always think about questions that can serve for the past or other topics, right, Aida?
141
Yes, definitely.
142
We talk about trips, about your last vacation, childhood, anecdotes, many things.
143
If you like the idea, look at the link in the description. And now...
144
We'll continue with the video.
145
We'll continue.
146
Well, the photo I wanted to show you is a photo in which you see.
147
Oh, a ver.
148
Yes, yes, look.
149
It's this.
150
Oh, yes.
151
Wow.
152
I remember.
153
I remember.
154
That's when we were in Oaxaca.
155
Well, first we were in Oaxaca and then we went to the coast.
156
Yes, this is the beach in Oaxaca.
157
And, well, this image has a lot of history, right?
158
Many stories.
159
I remember that we were in a town called San Agustinillo and we saw that some people offered tours
160
because there were many whales, and there were many whales there.
161
It's true.
162
So, we reserved a tour.
163
And, well, if you want to continue with the story.
164
First, what happened?
165
We went...
166
First...
167
Ah, no. Well, before we started the tour, you cut off.
168
Do you remember?
169
Exactly.
170
It was that we were pushing the boats to enter the sea and while I pushed the boat,
171
I don't know what I did, but I put a piece of metal And, well, I can't say this,
172
but I hurt my foot a lot.
173
But, we also continued the tour.
174
Well, the engine started to work and I was quickly a little tired.
175
Normal.
176
And then, you had the foot covered, protected?
177
Because of course, you had a very important cut.
178
I remember it.
179
Yes.
180
But still, do you think you enjoyed the moment?
181
Did you enjoy it?
182
Yes, it was great.
183
There were whales, Harry was also a very nice girl.
184
It was an incredible day, but with many accidents.
185
We went to the hospital.
186
You?
187
You saw Harry's face?
188
Why did he have this face of speed?
189
I think he was very concentrated.
190
He thought he was driving the boat, but no. And I have another photo.
191
Oh, you have more.
192
Yes, from Oaxaca, look.
193
It's true, we were you and the rest of the team taking a smoothie, a beer.
194
Yes.
195
It was very good.
196
Any kind of beer there was great.
197
Yes, every day we ate incredible food.
198
And the Mexican food I think deserve a chapter apart.
199
Definitely.
200
Wow, I loved the life we had in Mexico.
201
This was the three or four days after school,
202
that we had this routine so relaxed.
203
We were on the beach, we had excursions, we ate really well.
204
Yes, and wow, it was a lot of heat.
205
Yes, it was a lot of heat.
206
Yes, yes.
207
Hey, have you seen that you had a photo of mine on the phone?
208
It's because before, while we were recording...
209
Wait a minute, I want to see it.
210
It's true, I'll show you how it is.
211
How are you?
212
Sorry.
213
We were recording and thought, now I can take a photo of David for his appointment.
214
Well, you thought this was a good photo, Aida?
215
I was sleeping.
216
I don't think I'm very nice, by your part.
217
I thought you were very professional, with cameras, with pillows.
218
What did you do?
219
Did you really sleep?
220
Yes, I was almost sleeping because, well, we had eaten and the food was very good,
221
but there was a lot and it was a little full.
222
And I, when I eat, I needed, and at that time I needed a siesta.
223
Yes, maybe it's true, we had eaten too much.
224
Yes.
225
What do you think about the restaurant?
226
Ah, the restaurant of today.
227
The food was delicious, the quantities were generous.
228
Yes.
229
And the staff was also very nice.
230
Yes, we've eaten very well.
231
And now, important, there was a hot air conditioning.
232
Because I have a lot of heat.
233
It's a lot of heat.
234
Yes.
235
If you want, we can take a walk to the beach.
236
We thought the same.

Per chi è questo video?
Questo video è perfetto per gli studenti di inglese a livello intermedio che vogliono esercitare il past imperfect e migliorare la conversazione. Ideale per chi cerca un approccio pratico: il dialogo naturale tra i personaggi rende la pratica realistica, utile per chi vuole superare la barriera della conversazione e familiarizzare con espressioni colloquiali. È anche ottimo per chi usa la tecnica del shadowing in inglese, poiché la velocità e l'intonazione sono accessibili ma realistiche.
Parole e modi di dire da rubare
- "I lost them": "Li ho persi". Espressione semplice ma fondamentale per le situazioni di ogni giorno.
- "I had a little different humor now": "Avevo un umore un po' diverso allora". Usa humor per indicare l'umore, una variante colloquiale rispetto a mood.
- "I fell in that lake": "Sono caduto/a in quel lago". Verbo to fall con preposizione in per indicare il luogo del caduta.
Queste frasi sono utili per le conversazioni su ricordi, un tema frequente nella pratica di conversazione in inglese.
Come fare a pronunciare bene
Il parlante usa un accento chiaro, ma con alcuni dettagli da notare per il shadowing: la pronuncia di "glasses" (occhiali) con la "a" breve, e di "vegetables" (verdure) con la "e" finale soft. Per imitare correttamente, ascolta ripetutamente le frasi come "I had glasses" e "I didn't like vegetables", focalizzando l'intonazione che scende alla fine delle frasi affermative. Usa un shadowing site per registrare te stesso e confrontare l'accento: la chiave è la sincronia con il parlante, per migliorare fluenza e pronuncia.
Con questo video, la pratica diventa divertente: usalo per esercitare il shadow speech e trasformare i ricordi in un'opportunità per parlare inglese meglio!
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | I've found · you've been treated · we've eaten |
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | you've been treated · is complicated |
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — un’azione in corso in un momento del passato | was taking · were pushing · was driving |
| Futuro con “will” will + verbo — una decisione, una promessa o una previsione | I'll show · you'll learn · We'll continue |
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.
