StrutturaNel video
Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fais done · has been beaten · have not been proven
Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adessohas been beaten · have not been proven

Pronuncia a cui fare attenzione

Chi parla usa 17 contrazioni e forme ridotte, come you're, couldn't, doesn't. Pronunciale nella forma breve, così come le senti.

  • I suoni “sh” e “zh”: objection /əbˈd͡ʒɛkʃən/, prosecution /ˌpɹɑ.sɪˈkju.ʃən/, substantiate /səbˈstænʃieɪt/, probation /ˌpɹoʊˈbeɪʃən/, emotion /ɪˈməʊ.ʃən/
  • Parole lunghe — attenzione all’accento: prosecution /ˌpɹɑ.sɪˈkju.ʃən/, inadmissible /ˌɪnədˈmɪsəbəl/, voluntarily /ˌvɑlənˈtɛɹɪli/, testimony /ˈtɛstɪmoʊni/, testimonial /tɛstɪˈmoʊni.əl/

I suoni difficili per chi parla italiano:

  • /h/ — va soffiata, non è muta: uphold /ˌʌpˈhəʊld/, haunt /hɔnt/
  • Consonante finale — senza aggiungere una vocale dopo: proceedings /pɹəˈsiːd.ɪŋz/, substantiate /səbˈstænʃieɪt/, motive /ˈmoʊtɪv/, defraud /dɪˈfɹɔd/, polygraph /ˈpɒliɡɹæf/
  • /æ/ — più aperta della “e”: substantiate /səbˈstænʃieɪt/, blackmail /ˈblækˌmeɪl/, polygraph /ˈpɒliɡɹæf/, tragic /ˈtɹæd͡ʒɪk/

Come esercitarsi con questo video

  3. Registrati e confronta con l’originale, facendo attenzione a parole come objection, prosecution, gentleman.

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.
