Hi, my name is Evie and this is a video in slow English to help you practice your listening comprehension.
2
So I am from the UK but today we are in Gothenburg in Sweden.
3
so come with me and spend the day in Gothenburg in Sweden
4
so something about me is that I used to live in Sweden So I spent about four months living in Stockholm,
5
which is the capital.
6
But today we are in Gothenburg,
7
which is the second biggest city in Sweden.
8
I have been to Gothenburg before.
9
I was here for one week and I was sick the whole time.
10
So today I wanted to come back and spend some more time in Gothenburg.
11
Today we are going to go to the Natural History Museum where they have lots of natural history items.
12
And we're going to get fika.
13
We're going to get fika,
14
basically it's coffee and a pastry.
15
Sweden have really amazing pastry
16
so let's go I'm going to show you a little bit of the city as well
17
and yeah right now we are in a park it's super beautiful really peaceful so yeah let's go
18
so Gothenburg is a really interesting city because there's a port
19
so some of the city is really modern with skyscrapers
20
and other parts of the city are much older with little old buildings and are really quaint.
21
So it's a real mixture of everything.
22
There's lots of different types of buildings.
23
You can see the old architectural style with the arches here.
24
And just to the left in the distance,
25
you can see this skyscraper, which is really modern
26
and there's lots of this in Gothenburg so really old buildings and really new buildings.
27
So we are on the way to the museum and we're just walking through this park.
28
It's super beautiful but it is quite cold today
29
so I have my mittens um but we're gonna head up this hill to the museum now.
30
It's uphill so we have to go up these steps um and yeah it's really cold in Gothenburg today.
31
It's not too bad.
32
Before Gothenburg was snowing and today it's just rain.
33
Today it's just raining.
34
I think the rain follows me everywhere.
35
So yeah, the weather is not fantastic but we are gonna go inside once we've gone up.
36
All these steps.
37
Oh, it's filming.
38
Hi, this is Evie from the future.
39
So I'm editing right now. And okay.
40
we went to the natural history museum here in in Gothenburg on a Saturday
41
and that means that in every single room there were like 500 children all screaming and unfortunately
42
my new microphone has picked up on the audio of the children screaming in every single clip.
43
I'll show you.
44
This is disgusting.
45
Very interesting.
46
And the build is...
47
So my plan was I am going to explain a little bit what was in the museum
48
and then I will show you some of the clips which are okay.
49
So this museum in Gothenburg,
50
the Natural History Museum, it specialises in taxidermy animals.
51
So taxidermy is basically animals that are stuffed.
52
For example, these puffins are stuffed,
53
there were squirrels, but they had so many different types of animals.
54
They had bears and seals and birds.
55
I think I mentioned in a previous video,
56
but I am a vegetarian,
57
so I do not eat meat.
58
And I think you can see from my face in the museum that I didn't particularly love seeing
59
all of the taxidermy animals.
60
But one thing that was incredibly,
61
incredibly cool about the museum is there was a taxidermy blue whale in this room.
62
It was amazing.
63
And actually, the audio is not too bad in this clip
64
so I'm going to let me in the museum explain about this blue whale to you
65
so that's my explanation done so here in the museum they have this blue whale
66
which is a young blue whale
67
which was stranded in Gothenburg in I think 1826 and this is the skeleton and this is the skin
68
and the jaw opens but because it is so old it has lost the sort of blue color of a blue whale
69
and they have other skeletons above look at the jaw on this skeleton it's crazy it's
70
so crazy how huge these whales are they are so massive
71
and inside of its jaw of this young blue whale is a bench so apparently
72
So apparently you could go inside of the whale and have dinner.
73
They would have dinner parties in the whale which is honestly insane.
74
There is the hinge.
75
We're in Haga which is the oldest part of Gothenburg.
76
We are thinking of stopping at this really cute cafe.
77
I'm gonna try and grab the door.
78
I was gonna just grab one like this.
79
Okay, so we've got this which is.. what was this?
80
Tomla...
81
Tomla Kaka.
82
It looks really good.
83
And this which is called...
84
Somla?
85
Semla this is semla and this is our fika so this is our like cake snack so
86
how is it do you like marzipan love it I actually knew this I just forgot to tell you. And this one.
87
It tastes like a Bakewell tart.
88
No?
89
A bit?
90
Both.
91
10 out of 10.
92
So we have just left the cafe.
93
It was really nice did not get coffee because they did not have ice.
94
I like personally really like to have an iced coffee.
95
Anyway so now we are heading back home because it's kind of rainy
96
and I think it's time to just go and chill inside for a bit.
97
But yeah, you can see the city a bit from here.
98
It's quite pretty.
99
Hey, so it's now later in the day.
100
We just went home and I edited a video for a while,
101
but now we are going to go and grab a drink
102
so yeah we are gonna go to a bar nearby
103
so let's go so something I do see lots of in Gothenburg are British bars and Irish bars but in particular
104
Well, I think there are Irish bars everywhere in the world,
105
but here in Gothenburg, there are lots of British bars, which is surprising.
106
Apparently, there are lots of British bars because in the past,
107
there was a lot of British immigration to Gothenburg.
108
so maybe it's because of that
109

Perché esercitarsi a parlare con questo video?

Il video "A Day in Sweden" offre un'opportunità unica per migliorare la pronuncia inglese valorizzando il contesto pratico del linguaggio. Evie, la presentatrice, parla con una pronuncia britannica lenta, rendendo più facile per gli studenti di inglese comprendere e ripetere le frasi. Questo è essenziale per coloro che vogliono imparare l'inglese con YouTube, poiché fornisce non solo l'ascolto ma anche la possibilità di ripetere le frasi. Avendo una guida che esplora una città come Göteborg, il lessico utilizzato è arricchente e contestualizzato, facilitando un apprendimento più efficace.

Grammatica ed espressioni nel contesto

In questo video, Evie utilizza diverse strutture grammaticali e espressioni utili per apprendere:

  • “I have been to…” - Questa struttura è usata per parlare di esperienze passate. È utile per gli studenti di inglese per descrivere viaggi o eventi.
  • “We are going to…” - Usata per esprimere piani futuri, è fondamentale per chi vuole conversare su attività quotidiane.
  • “There’s lots of…” - Questa espressione permette di descrivere quantità in modo colloquiale, rendendo la conversazione più fluida e naturale.

Queste frasi comuni possono fare la differenza nel shadow speak della tua conversazione inglese, migliorando la tua sicurezza e fluidità.

Trappole comuni nella pronuncia

Durante la visione del video, potresti incontrare parole o frasi che risultano difficili da pronunciare. Ecco alcune trappole comuni:

  • “Gothenburg” - La pronuncia di questa città può risultare complicata per chi non è abituato ai suoni britannici. Fai attenzione alla pausa tra le sillabe.
  • “Fika” - Questo termine svedese per “caffè e dolce” può sembrare strano; assicurati di pronunciarlo con l'accento giusto.
  • “Natural History Museum” - Pratica la sequenza e il ritmo di questa frase, poiché le parole si accavallano quando vengono pronunciate rapidamente.

Utilizzare il shadowing in inglese con questi termini ti aiuterà a migliorare la tua pronuncia e a superare ostacoli comuni, preparandoti a conversazioni reali. Ricorda, la chiave è ripetere e praticare regolarmente!

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.
