You get to this certain age and you're like, that's okay.
5
Your imagination begins to vanish.

19
Number three thing you miss most about being a kid, recess in the middle of the day.
20
That was the best.
21
Unless you go to court, jury duty, you have recess.
22
It's not as fun.
23
Right.
24
But it still is recess.
25
It's also really long.
26
Have you ever done jury duty?
27
Oh, every day.
28
Every day.
29
With all of my bills.
30
You're civic duty.
31
Sam, you know me.
32
I respect that.
33
Most of my jury duty experience, the first hour is them telling you the restaurants in the area that you can go eat at.
34
It was a woman going, alright we got the Quiznos and Carl Jr. and just and on and on and on.
35
That's beautiful, why can't I go to this place?
36
An hour of journey, well you'll get it one day if you register to vote or register to drive.

Neither of which you currently do, so you're right now totally clear.
38
Perfect Americaness.
39
The number two thing you miss most about being a kid, the excitement of Christmas morning.
40
Ooh.
41
Christmas was so good.
42
I feel like when you grow up, there's this point in your life where it's like, Oh, I get presents, I get presents.
43
I have to give presents.
44
I don't have money to give presents.
45
What are presents?
46
And then it just, it's a spiral down.
47
That's good.
48
I'm glad that you had a strong opinion on Christmas morning, because I literally have none.
49
I'm Jewish, so...
50
Okay, but what was behind?
51

53
And the number one thing you miss most about being a kid is...
54
Vacation!
55
Summer vacation!
56
Winter vacation!
57
Spring break!
58
When I was a kid, I was in a year-round school, which where you go to school for three weeks and they're off for like one or two weeks.
59
You're always in school and there's no like set breaks, but you're just always constantly going and moving and I loved it.
60
I could see the value of the rolling vacations.
61
Like I would take that in adult life.
62
I mean, assuming that life wasn't just sort of always a vacation.
63
I would, like if I had like a steady gig, it would be cool to get like two weeks off every once in a while.
64
Right?
65
Well it's terrible because now I have a job and it's like, oh I gotta go to work.
66
And it's like, oh I have to ask for time off.
67
They didn't approve it.
68
Oh okay, well, go to work.
69
So no time off.
70
Here we go.
71
And apparently it just keeps getting worse.
72
And then you died.
73
Yeah, sure.
74
So that's it.

Consigli per la Pratica

Per ottenere il massimo dalla tua pratica di conversazione in inglese, ti consigliamo di utilizzare la tecnica del shadowing in inglese. Questa tecnica consiste nel ripetere le parole immediatamente dopo averle ascoltate nel video. Il video di Amanda McKenna ha un tono colloquiale e naturale, quindi è perfetto per esercitarsi. Ascolta attentamente come pronuncia le frasi e cerca di imitare non solo le parole, ma anche il loro ritmo e la loro intonazione.

Inizia a shadow speak a una velocità più lenta, se necessario, e poi aumenta gradualmente la velocità man mano che ti senti più sicuro. Non dimenticare di prendere appunti sulle frasi che ti colpiscono di più, poiché queste possono essere utilizzate come spunti per conversazioni future. Ricorda, l'obiettivo è raccogliere nuove espressioni e migliorare la tua fluency.

Con la pratica costante delle tecniche di shadowing e l'uso di contenuti come i video su YouTube, puoi davvero imparare l'inglese con youtube, rendendo questo processo non solo educativo, ma anche divertente!

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.
