It is pretty cold and yeah you are guiding me around a little bit in your hunting grounds right now right?
4
Yeah, that's right.
5
This is my spot this is where I like to hunt mostly.
6
We just found a spot over here where the deer are entering a field and leaving a field.
7
It's a good spot for them to feed.
8
So to see what deer in the area, what deer survived the hunting season last year I'll be able to take pictures of them.
9
Eric what are we up to right now?
10
I'm putting a camera up so I can get pictures of the deer
11
that are in the area still and I get a good idea of what what deer survived the winter.
12
I've got a digital card inside there I'll take all kinds
13
of shots take hundreds of shots I'll check it out later and see what we have around here.
14
Yeah we've just spent a lot of time talking about what the outdoors means for you, what hunting means for you, what nature means to you.
15
You also published a book, right?
16
Just currently about that very topic.
17
It's called String Theory for Bow Hunters.
18
Great title by the way.
19
It's about bow hunting as you can guess.
20
So what does it mean to you to be out here in this area?
21
This is just beautiful.
22
I mean, I don't know if you can catch it on camera, but right now we've got some big snowflakes all over the
23
place it's just it's just beautiful to hunt here it's beautiful just to get out here um
24
so when you asked me
25
if i wanted to do it i jumped at the opportunity i said hell yeah
26
because you're an excuse i just want to get out again you know
27
and see what it's like
28
and look at the deer tracks we've seen some tracks you
29
might be able to find some deer rubs where they rub
30
their antlers on the trees back there we'll take a look
31
and see if we can find that
32
but it's gorgeous out here it's quiet it's beautiful
33
so we just talked about a lot of stuff to know
34
what we talked about of course you have to listen to the podcast episode
35
but maybe just one question for the purpose of this video
36
if the listeners take one thing away from this episode
37
that we're doing right now about hunting about hunters um what
38
would you like them to take away from listening to our conversations Take away, first of all, that I'm a Viking fan, okay?
39
Everybody who knows me knows that I'm a Viking fan.
40
American football.
41
But take away the fact that it's not just the hunt, it's the outdoor experience that we're looking at here.
42
If you're fortunate enough to bring home some venison for the family, that's great.
43
It's good for you.
44
No fat.
45
It's really good for you.
46
But if you're not fortunate enough to do that, you still get to see nature.
47
I told you about the owl that landed near me not too long ago.
48
It was exciting to see and you know I didn't get a deer
49
that day but I did have an experience it was a great hunt.
50
So the hunt is not actually about getting the animal for you?
51
It's not the yeah it's not it's not bringing home the venison it's coming home safe you know
52
and being able to see everything in the woods that can't see you.
53
It's really exciting.
54
Yeah yeah thank you so much I'm looking forward to exploring this area.
55
All right man okay good to see you.

About This Lesson

In questa lezione, pratica di conversazione in inglese con un dialogo naturale tra due persone in un contesto outdoor. Imparerai a capire l'italiano parlato in modo informale, a riconoscere espressioni colloquiali e a lavorare sulla tua pronuncia grazie alla tecnica del shadowing. Il video, ambientato nella foresta dello stato di New York, offre un mix di vocaboli specifici e frasi comuni, perfetto per migliorare la tua fluenza e la comprensione auditiva.

Parole chiave e frasi utili

  • Hunting grounds: "Terreno di caccia" – esempio: "This is my spot, where I like to hunt mostly."
  • Deer rubs: "Rughe dei cervi" (marche sulle alberi fatte dagli antichi) – esempio: "We might find some deer rubs back there."
  • Venison: "Carne di cervo" – esempio: "Bring home some venison for the family."
  • Jumped at the opportunity: "Saltare alla occasione" – esempio: "I jumped at the opportunity to come here."
  • Outdoor experience: "Esperienza all'aperto" – esempio: "It's not just the hunt, it's the outdoor experience."

Consigli per la pratica

Per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la fluenza, usa la tecnica del shadowing: ascolta un frammento del video (5-10 secondi), ripetilo immediatamente dopo, cercando di imitare l'intonazione, la velocità e il tono di voce. Il dialogo ha una velocità media e un tono informale, perfetto per esercitarti. Ripeti più volte gli stessi frammenti, specialmente quelli con espressioni colloquiali come "hell yeah" o "you know". Usa questo video come shadowing site: pausa, ripeti, confronta. L'impegno giornaliero di 10-15 minuti con questo metodo ti aiuterà a rafforzare la tua shadow speech e a sentirti più a tuo agio nel parlare inglese. Ricorda: l'obiettivo è non solo capire, ma anche parlare come un madrelingua!

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.
