Welcome to Daily Dictation 14, but first we got to go back to Daily Dictation 13.

It's about the mosquitoes.

How was your dictation?

One more time, listen up.

Mosquitoes.

I'm from Wisconsin in the United States and mosquitos, we have a cute name for mosquitos.

Skeeters.

And it comes from the pronunciation.

We don't say mosquitos, we say mosquitos, mosquitos, skeetos, skeeters.

So we have that kind of name.

So if you know another American from Wisconsin, you can ask him or her about skeeters.

Do you have skeeters in Wisconsin?

You could ask a question like that.

Anyway, Asian tiger mosquitoes, wow, tiger mosquitoes, are native to the tropics of Southeast Asia.

So, native to, native to.

Now, these Asian tiger mosquitoes are native to Southeast Asia, but they've moved to the United States.

Just like I'm native to the United States, but I moved to Asia, South Korea, the tiger mosquitoes have moved to the United States.

So we've changed positions.

So Asian tiger mosquitoes are native to the, native to the, native to the.

You don't hear to, it sounds more like a d, d, very short d sound.

Native to the, native to the, native to the tropics, the tropics.

When we say tropics, we think of palm trees and coconuts and very hot weather, rainforests, oceans.

We have this image, the tropics, kind of a beautiful image.

The tropics of, not the tropics of the Caribbean, the tropics of Southeast Asia.

Southeast Asia, so Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, these countries in Southeast Asia.

But, in the past few years, now, when we say it fast, but in the, but in the, but in the, we gotta connect the sound,

and this N cancels out the TH, and what we have is, but in the, but in the,

but in the, in, na but in the past few, this S cancels the T,

past few, but in the past few years, but in the past few years, and these words put them together,

because many students, if they don't connect the sounds, it sounds like few ears.

You don't want to say few ears, you want to say few years,

But in the past few years,

they've spread all across.

They've spread.

The mosquitoes have spread.

Just like spread to spread out, to expand, to go to more places.

They've spread.

Right now I'm spreading my arms.

I'm spreading my fingers.

The mosquitoes have spread from Southeast Asia to where?

To all across, all over, every part of...

The Southeastern United States.

So the United States, the Southeastern part, that's going to be Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas.

These states would be Southeast United States.

And in this video, if you watch the full video, and I'll put the link, they're now in California.

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.
