1
How many grandchildren do you have?
2
Two. - This is your daughter? - Yes - Are they both her children? - No.
3
Just one of them?
4
Yes. And this is your soon-to-be former son-in-law?
5
Hopefully, yes.
6
And this is his sister?
7
Yes. You're suing your son-in-law and his sister because you say that they won't return to you some clothing that you purchased for your granddaughter while your granddaughter was at least some time in-- Mr. Menter?
8
Correct Mr. Menter's custody.
9
Is that right?
10
Right Mrs. Geren, I want to tell you that I think you probably making the worst mistake in your life as a grandparent by bringing this lawsuit-- the worst.
11
I gather, from reading of your complaint that you had had difficulties at certain periods of time with your daughter. Is that right?
12
Right. And you've had difficulties in certain periods of time with your son-in-law, is that right?
13
Yes. The only one thing that's constant is that they have a child together and you are that child's grandmother.
14
And it would seem to me that if you were using your brains, you would do nothing to alienate-- alienate either one of the parents, either one of the parents of this grandchild of yours, irrespective of whether they're having an acrimonious divorce or not, because you never know what's going to happen.
15
You never know what life circumstance turns around and brings you.
16
Your daughter looks like a healthy young woman, but if something happens to your daughter tomorrow, she gets hit by a bus.
17
Your granddaughter is going to be with her father.
18
I don't think so.
19
- Oh yes, she will. - I truly don't believe that.
20
You may not think so, but if-- you may not think so, but that's the law.
21
And unless there is some very special circumstance, if something happened to your daughter, in all probability, the child would be raised by her father.
22
Stop looking at your papers, Mrs. Geren.
23
Try to appreciate what I'm saying to you.
24
And I'm saying this to you because I have four grandchildren.
25
And even though-- and I have children who are in similar circumstances.
26
And the one thing that I knew was I never wanted either one of them to be angry with me because it was most important to me that I have reasonable relations with the parents of my grandchild.
27
And if you don't see that, you're a very, very foolish woman.
28
Now, you want to continue with this lawsuit, that's up to you.
29
But I think that you're making a tragic mistake.
30
I definitely thought of that, about something happening to her, and I would have to naturally see Ashley through Michael.
31
But the fact is that as of last night, he no longer has any custody of Ashley, besides the fact that I do want what rightfully I purchased and I did not purchase for him.
32
And I feel that I'm going to continue with this lawsuit.
33
Fine. When did you purchase the items for your granddaughter?
34
Well, first, I'd like to show this to you.
35
Just tell me what it is.
36
It's a letter from Children & Family Services.
37
What does it have to do with clothes?
38
Because it shows that Jamie has full custody right now.
39
I don't care whether she has full custody.
40
And she goes to school from my home every single day.
41
Ms. Geren it has nothing to do with this lawsuit, Madam.
42
You're not paying attention to me.
43
All right. Here-- I asked for specific question.
44
Your daughter did not have custody for a period of time of this child.
45
She did, too?
46
No, no, no.
47
The child was with the father.
48
That's why-- that's why-- It's not true.
49
Wait a sec.
50
No, no, that's not true.
51
He had three days, is all he had with her.
52
Ms. Geren. Are you telling me that I don't know what I'm saying?
53
Ms. Geren? Yes.
54
Let me see the items, and when you purchase them for your granddaughter.
55
The main item list is this.
56
Can I see it?
57
And the rest is right here.
58
And I don't understand why you say she only-- she didn't have custody.
59
That's, like, unbelievable.
60
OK. With whom was the child residing in November of 1998?
61
With Jamie and three days with him.

Contesto e Sfondo
Il video "Grandma Sues Over Grandchild’s Wardrobe | Part 1" presenta un dialogo intenso tra una nonna, un giudice e altri partecipanti, incentrato su una lite legale per il ritorno di abiti acquistati per la nipote. Il contesto è un tribunale, dove le emozioni e le argomentazioni si intrecciano, offrendo un'ottima opportunità per esercitare l'ascolto e la pronuncia in inglese, grazie a situazioni reali e linguaggio colloquiale.
5 Frasi Chiave per la Comunicazione Quotidiana
Estraiamo dal dialogo frasi utili per situazioni di discussione o negoziazione:
- "I think you're making the worst mistake": Per esprimere preoccupazione per una decisione altrui.
- "You never know what's going to happen": Per sottolineare l'incertezza delle circostanze.
- "It has nothing to do with this": Per dire che qualcosa non è rilevante al contesto.
- "I don't care whether...": Per esprimere indifferenza verso una situazione specifica.
- "You're not paying attention to me": Per segnalare che l'interlocutore non ascolta.
Guida Passo-Passo per il Shadow Speak
Per esercitare il shadow speak con questo video, segui questi passaggi:
- Analizza l'intonazione: Il dialogo è carico di emozione (rabbia, preoccupazione). Ascolta attentamente come le voci si alzano o si abbassano nelle frasi chiave, come "You're a very foolish woman" o "I feel that I'm going to continue". Ripeti imitando l'intonazione per rendere il tuo inglese più naturale.
- Ripeti a velocità variabile: Inizialmente, riproduci il video a 0,75x la velocità. Concentrati su pronunciare ogni parola chiaramente, specialmente espressioni come "acrimonious divorce" o "reasonable relations". Poi, aumenta la velocità fino a 1x per abituarti al flusso colloquiale.
- Focus sulle connessioni tra le parole: Nelle conversazioni reali, le parole si fondono spesso (es. "I don't think so" diventa "I don't thinkso"). Ascolta come i parlanti connettono le frasi e ripeti lo stesso pattern per migliorare la tua fluidità nella pratica di conversazione in inglese.
- Memorizza frasi, non singole parole: Invece di imparare "custody" o "lawsuit" da sole, memorizza frasi complete come "He no longer has any custody" o "I'm going to continue with this lawsuit". Questo aiuta a usare il vocabolario in contesti reali, un metodo chiave del shadowspeak.
- Confronta il tuo audio con il video: Registrati mentre ripeti e confronta il tuo audio con il originale. Nota le differenze nella pronuncia o nella pausa e correggi gradualmente. Questo esercizio è fondamentale per rafforzare le tue abilità di ascolto e produzione.
Usare video come questo per l'imparare l'inglese con YouTube è un modo efficace per migliorare la pronuncia e la confidenza. Il shadowspeaks non è solo ripetere, ma imitare il flusso, l'intonazione e le emozioni del parlante: con pratica, noterai un miglioramento significativo nella tua comunicazione inglese.
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.
