Pratica di Shadowing: He’s Not the Prize. You Are (Wake Up) - Impara a parlare inglese con i video
Creazione lezione...
1
Do you know what a lot of us do?
2
We romanticize the what if.
3
The, oh my God, you know, the future could look like this.
4
We could do this, we could do that.
5
We could do this and that together.
6
Him and I.
7
If I could slap you right now, I would slap you.
8
You know why?
9
Because you don't actually know what it would be like if you got in a relationship with this person.
10
You don't know what it would feel like for you guys to be in this perfect situation right now.
11
And if it was perfect, you wouldn't be watching this video relating to what I'm saying right now.
12
Hi guys, welcome to or welcome back to my channel.
13
Welcome to my new home.
14
I am in Los Angeles, California.
15
I'm staying here for a few months.
16
I'm testing it out and if I like it then I might go for a more permanent visa.
17
So yeah, I'm so excited.
18
I'm so excited to be here.
19
I literally packed up my life and moved.
20
So there is a lot that's going to be happening.
21
It's going to be very exciting on this channel and I'm just so happy to be here truly.
22
I feel like I'm such a California girl.
23
Like it suits me and it makes sense.
24
I moved by myself.
25
I am your virtual big sister, your best friend.
26
Okay.
27
We're FaceTiming.
28
We're two friends FaceTiming.
29
And I'm going to give you some cutthroat advice today
30
because I feel like if you saw the title of this video and it clicked and it resonated, then we need to chat.
31
Okay.
32
We need to have a little intermission right now because we have some shit to talk about.
33
When I tell you, I am not just talking the talk.
34
I'm walking the walk.
35
I moved across the world by myself.
36
Okay.
37
So I'm ready to give you some advice and I'm ready to put you in check.
38
Are you ready to be clocked but like with love though you know
39
because i love you
40
and i want you to be doing well i am going
41
overseas for i don't know how long in less than a week i'm
42
so anxious i'm
43
so nervous i'm feeling all of these crazy feelings it's really
44
hard to wrap your head around a really big life change
45
because it's almost like your logical brain is telling you
46
that through doing
47
that through stepping out of your comfort zone you are going
48
to have the most amazing experiences you are going to gain
49
all of this knowledge it's going to be incredible there's nothing worse than being comfortable
50
and sitting around and doing nothing
51
but it's like emotionally i don't feel ready do you know what i mean like logistically i have everything sorted
52
but emotionally i feel so scattered i'm nervous i feel like i'm very type a
53
and i like to control the narrative control my life there are things
54
that we just have to do for ourselves
55
and nobody is going to help us but one thing
56
that will help you is astra
57
and i want to talk about astra really quickly through this
58
transition of me moving everything into storage getting my life together
59
getting prepared to go overseas my emotions have been absolutely turbulent they've been everywhere
60
and having an app like astra has been
61
so incredibly reassuring i mean i know
62
that i give you guys advice on this channel
63
but a girl needs her advice too and
64
because i'm moving overseas i can't just go to a therapist
65
and access a therapist whenever i want and so having ai for therapy is literally a life pack.
66
I'm just really obsessed with anything that gives me insight into myself, my relationships, my timing, moving overseas, whatever I need help with.
67
There are so many different features on the app.
68
And so you can use Astra to tell you if you're compatible with somebody, whether it's a friendship or a new relationship, you know, maybe you're meeting somebody, you can ask Astra for advice.
69
There's a styling guide.
70
I love asking Astra for advice.
71
I also love, you know, sort of putting in somebody's star sign and then mine as well and seeing if we're compatible.
72
That is super fun to do.
73
Astra is basically an astrology-based AI advice app where you can pretty much ask any question about love, compatibility, life changes, absolutely anything.
74
There are a ton of different features on the app.
75
You can go into whatever you're dealing with in life
76
and it will pretty much give you a response that feels very specific and personal to you.
77
So whether you're trying to understand a relationship or a friendship
78
or decode your patterns or you just want a little bit of cosmic emotional support, it's genuinely an incredibly fun app.
79
I love it so much and I I highly, highly recommend it.
80
Thank you so much to Astra for sponsoring today's video.
81
Everything will be linked in the description and without further ado let's get into the video.
82
If you're into astrology, you're into relationships or honestly you're just anxious and you overthink Astra is the perfect app for you.
83
There is something on the app for absolutely everybody.
84
Today's topic is you are too pretty to be acting like this for a man.
85
boy we have a lot to get into
86
so get comfy men are always going to disappoint you
87
if you are chasing and you are obsessed
88
and you just put them on this pedestal they're always going
89
to disappoint you there is never going to be a situation where you are more in love with a man
90
and they don't disappoint you
91
and that's a fact i'm willing to fight you on it i know
92
that there is this joke going around of like men should love their girlfriend more that's the only way
93
that it works blah blah I feel like
94
that is true they should want you more and I'm not saying
95
that in a relationship it's going to be them constantly always chasing you always doing
96
so much like it is a push
97
and pull you know it's a relationship obviously but
98
when you're in a relationship and it's been years
99
and you have a ring on your finger
100
and you're more comfortable with them and you trust them
101
and whatever still at that point you cannot look at me and say my man would never dot dot dot
102
You can't say that.
103
You don't know that about anybody.
104
At the end of the day, men are out here cheating on their wives when they're about to pop out a baby.
105
Let's be so for real.
106
So don't think that they would never, okay?
107
We're starting this off a little bit negative, but it's just the truth.
108
Let's be so for real right now.
109
It's the truth.
110
A lot of us have been played by a man.
111
And so what we do is when we really like somebody, everything that they say to us, we really want to believe it.
112
It's almost very sweet, okay?
113
it's like you're literally turning a shit show into something
114
that looks more promising because you want to believe that we're
115
so good at
116
that believing in somebody's potential oh that's like one of our specialties as women it's just something
117
that a lot of us have done like 99% of us have done this
118
but it's time
119
that you stop you are too pretty for a man to
120
treat you like you're just an option I'm not going to live in this negative low vibrational energy okay
121
because of my limiting beliefs and my anxiety and my fear
122
because all of your fears are just this is just a feeling fear is just a feeling okay
123
and it's not useful and it does not help so
124
when you are scared and when you feel fear and
125
when you are experiencing limiting beliefs you're almost putting it out
126
there you are quite literally manifesting bad things to come into your reality
127
so stop doing that oh my god what if he goes to
128
that party and he meets a really pretty girl what kind of energy is that Are you kidding?
129
You're putting out the most awful energy out into the universe.
130
It's like a boomerang.
131
Okay, you're putting it out.
132
It's going to come back to you and it's going to come true.
133
So instead, try this.
134
If the man you like is going out to a party, you know what?
135
I'm kind of annoyed that he's going out to that party because we were supposed to hang out.
136
How about I make some plans?
137
I dress up.
138
I look good.
139
And let's see who I can meet.
140
What if I actually meet someone better?
141
Listen, I'm going to tell you something.
142
and this is going to be a hot take, okay?
143
I am going to hold your hand and tell you this
144
and I want you to believe it and I want you to know it
145
and I want you to listen to this a million times until you do believe it.
146
You can always find somebody else.
147
Just because this man is amazing, he's fine, he's this, he's that, he ticks all the boxes, whatever.
148
You guys have the same birthday, you guys are so compatible, your brothers are friends.
149
I don't care.
150
I don't care what the situation is.
151
I truly don't.
152
Anybody can be replaced and I'm not saying it's easy to replace people even for me.
153
If you're friends with me, I can be replaced.
154
There's no other one of me, but you can find somebody else that makes you feel loved and happy.
155
And there's 8 billion people in the world.
156
No hard feelings.
157
It's just the truth.
158
So do not make somebody the epicenter of your universe.
159
Remember that there are other people out there for you, and they are so lucky that you've chosen them.
160
They're so lucky that you want to be with them.
161
The same way that yes, you are lucky that they choose you and that's what makes love beautiful in this world of so many people.
162
You guys choose each other.
163
I think that is absolutely beautiful and that's what is so special about love.
164
But do not paralyze yourself into believing that this is the only one person in this whole universe for you.
165
That is a really ugly energy.
166
I want you to practice stepping out of that energy.
167
When you start to feel that way, do absolutely anything you can.
168
Listen to one of my videos, journal, anything that you can to remove yourself from that experience.
169
Because the truth is it's like a snowball effect.
170
You are who you hang around with.
171
You are what you interact with.
172
You are what you listen to.
173
You are what you say.
174
So if you keep saying, oh, I'm just, I'm so ugly.
175
Like my skin never gets better.
176
And like, I can't lose weight.
177
And this guy doesn't want me.
178
And everybody always dumps me.
179
It's just going to keep happening.
180
You need to stop.
181
Let's talk about the good things.
182
Okay, I'm gonna start first.
183
I am going to list out some things that I like about myself.
184
And it's gonna sound a little bit vain, but I'm gonna do it.
185
It's something that we all should do.
186
Listen, there's things I don't like about myself, but I'm not gonna think about it right now
187
because these are things I'm working on and I want to improve and why ruminate on those thoughts, you know?
188
Ooh, I like my hair.
189
I think I have nice hair.
190
I like when I get a blowout.
191
I think it looks really nice and I have thick hair and I love my hair.
192
So that's one physical thing.
193
I love that I can talk to people easily.
194
A compliment that I always get is you are
195
so easy to talk to and you're so good at keeping a conversation going.
196
So that's one thing I love about myself.
197
And another thing is I love that I've been focusing on my health
198
and I've been really showing up for myself and going to the gym.
199
So these are all things that are positive that I love about myself.
200
I want you to try because there are so many beautiful, amazing things about you.
201
And I want you to pause this video right now
202
and say it out loud and think about how that makes you feel.
203
pause the video are you done okay let's take a deep breath together ready three two one why is
204
that like crack like it just not that i've tried crack
205
but it just feels
206
so good to have a deep breath oh my god it's
207
like feels amazing anyway why did we just do this you
208
ask we listed all of these great things about ourselves because i want to remind you you are actually somebody's dream person.
209
And okay, let's say maybe you're not this guy's dream person because he's not coming correct for you.
210
Okay, the person that you want is not coming correct for you.
211
They're ignoring you.
212
They're not super interested.
213
That obviously sucks.
214
And I'm sorry you're going through that.
215
But the thing is, just because they don't want you doesn't mean that everyone else doesn't want you.
216
It doesn't mean that you're not valuable.
217
Like somebody out there would genuinely look at me and I just would be the complete opposite of their type.
218
I know it.
219
I know it for sure.
220
Like they would be like, that's just not my type.
221
The same way that I might look at them and think the exact same thing.
222
You're not my type.
223
We're not a match.
224
I don't want to date you and you don't want to date me.
225
And so I'm not going to go home and, you know, sit in the corner there in the fetal position and be like, oh my God, I, there's nothing left for me.
226
Like there's literally nothing left for me.
227
And I hate my life and I hate myself.
228
That is ridiculous.
229
Imagine feeling that way.
230
Oh, we don't have to imagine it.
231
You are feeling that way over someone and you're too pretty to be feeling that way.
232
You are too valuable.
233
You are too amazing.
234
And it needs to stop because the thing is you are putting this person on a pedestal.
235
Do you know what a lot of us do?
236
We romanticize the what if the, Oh my God, you know, the future could look like this.
237
We could do this.
238
We could do that.
239
We could do this and that together.
240
Him and I, if I could slap you right now, I would slap you.
241
You know why?
242
Because you don't actually know what it would be like if you got in a relationship with this person.
243
You have no idea what it would be like.
244
You don't know what it would feel like for you guys to be in this perfect situation right now.
245
And if it was perfect, you wouldn't be watching this video relating to what I'm saying right now.
246
Like the perfect situation would have you happy and you wouldn't be feeling stressed.
247
Your cortisol wouldn't be up.
248
You don't deserve any of this.
249
These are ugly things.
250
This is ugly.
251
When you're sitting there stressed out about somebody, worried about somebody, you got eye bags, you've been crying, you have puffy eyes, like you're stressed.
252
You know what I mean?
253
Like that is not cute.
254
Okay.
255
I need you to care about yourself more than to allow yourself to feel this way.
256
It's not cute.
257
We all get stressed.
258
I get stressed.
259
All of us get stressed, but it's not good for you.
260
It's not good for your body.
261
It's not good for your mind.
262
And it's just doesn't benefit anything.
263
You're telling me in this world of all these beautiful places to travel, all of these amazing people to meet and friends to make and cute guys to date.
264
You are sitting here, paralyzing yourself into believing
265
that this one person who's not showing up for you is the only thing in this world
266
that could bring you joy and happiness.
267
You're being ridiculous.
268
I'm going to slap you.
269
You're being insane.
270
You need to stop.
271
You know what?
272
You have to have respect for yourself.
273
So here's an example.
274
If I really like somebody, let me tell you, I'm a little bit insane.
275
I'm insane.
276
Why do you think I give you guys this advice?
277
It's because I understand how you're feeling.
278
And I've been there and I've crashed out multiple times over multiple things.
279
Now I don't anymore.
280
Well, rarely, like sometimes I will if it's something really big in my life and it's like a catastrophe, you know?
281
But even then, 99% of the time, I will clock myself and I will be like, ew, why am I doing this?
282
Why am I stalking this guy's following?
283
Why am I crying about this?
284
Like, I will let myself be sad for 20 minutes
285
and then I'll come and watch a video like this one on YouTube
286
and I just get out of it because I refuse.
287
I'm not gonna waste my life.
288
I'm not gonna sit there thinking these negative, horrible thoughts.
289
It doesn't benefit me.
290
It doesn't help.
291
It doesn't make things any better.
292
I like to be happy.
293
Let me ask you a question.
294
Say it out loud.
295
Like I want you to actually answer me.
296
Do you want to be happy?
297
Cool.
298
So if you want to be happy, then why are you sitting here putting this person on a pedestal and losing sleep over them?
299
Another thing that makes you ugly, losing sleep.
300
Why are you losing sleep?
301
You tell me.
302
If you showed me a photo of this person, would I look at you and say, oh my God, girl, he is the hottest thing that's walked.
303
Would I say that?
304
And I know that looks is just like, you know, subjective and whatever, but I feel like I would look at you
305
and I'd say okay sure but really like you're actually
306
that stressed over this person who treats you like that
307
and looks like
308
that no I'm kidding I'm actually just joking like whatever you guys can like whoever you want
309
if you like a troll under a bridge
310
if you like a prince I don't care
311
if he doesn't treat you well then it's not good enough it's not good enough for me doll
312
so what I want for you is for you to be
313
so happy that you don't even have to press on a video like this
314
because you're just so over the moon and so in love.
315
And this person never makes you question your worth, never lets you question your worth, okay?
316
So that's what I want for you.
317
You deserve better.
318
You deserve everything.
319
Believe it, okay?
320
I want you to believe that because it's true.
321
Anyway, this was a short pep talk, okay?
322
I have some long videos coming up, but I felt really inspired to film a video and I really wanted to kind of clock you guys.
323
And I wanna make this a series, you know, kind of building up your feminine energy
324
and not chasing men and sort of like dating advice and stuff like that.
325
I really want to talk about it more.
326
So any questions that you have, leave in the comments.
327
I'm going to answer them.
328
Any ideas you have for videos, let me know.
329
I'm going to answer them.
330
This video was really fun.
331
I know it was short, but I just wanted a short little pep talk
332
that you guys could listen to whenever you're feeling a type of way about a man because it needs to stop, girls.
333
So I'm going to put this on Spotify as well as an episode on my Spotify
334
so that you guys can listen to it.
335
And yeah, I hope that you liked today's advice session.
336
I sure loved giving you guys some advice.
337
So I will see you in my next video.
338
I love you so much and take care of yourself.
339
Do not get ugly for a man.

Obiettivi di parlato per questo clip
Questo video è perfetto per lavorare sulla fluency e sull'expressività nella lingua inglese, specialmente quando si tratta di comunicare emozioni e consigli con chiarezza. Le frasi colloquiali e il tono diretto aiutano a capire come usare l'inglese in contesti informali, come una conversazione tra amici, migliorando la capacità di esprimere opinioni forti ma con affetto.
Banca di frasi riutilizzabili
- "We romanticize the what if" – "Noi romantichiamo il 'e se'" (utile per parlare di aspettative non realistiche).
- "I'm testing it out" – "Sto provandolo" (perfetto per descrivere esperimenti o cambiamenti di vita).
- "Stepping out of your comfort zone" – "Uscire dalla propria zona di comfort" (frase chiave per parlare di coraggio e crescita personale).
- "It's really hard to wrap your head around" – "È davvero difficile capirlo" (esprime la difficoltà a comprendere situazioni complesse).
Come usare queste frasi nella pratica
Per integrare queste espressioni nella tua lingua inglese, prova il shadowing in inglese: ascolta una frase dal video, pausa e ripeti immediatamente con lo stesso tono e la stessa velocità. Piattaforme come shadowing site o shadowspeak possono aiutarti a esercitarti in modo strutturato, ma anche con YouTube puoi creare la tua routine: seleziona clip brevi, ripeti e confronta il tuo accento con quello del speaker.
Correggi i tuoi punti deboli
Il video mette in evidenza due aspetti cruciali per la pronuncia: la intonazione (che trasmette emozione, come la dolcezza nel "but like with love though") e la connettività tra le parole (ad esempio, "I'm so excited" si dice velocemente, con "I'm" e "so" legati). Per migliorare, ascolta attentamente come il speaker accorcia le parole o le collega (es. "it's" invece di "it is") e imita questo pattern. Ricorda: la chiave è la pratica costante – anche 10 minuti al giorno con shadow speak possono fare la differenza.
Imparare l'inglese con YouTube non è solo divertente, ma anche efficace: i contenuti reali, come questo video, ti insegnano a parlare come un nativo, non solo a studiare regole. Quindi, metti in pratica questi consigli, usca dalla tua zona di comfort e inizia a parlare con confidenza!
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Frasi condizionali if + frase, will/would + verbo — una condizione e il suo risultato | if it was perfect, you wouldn't be |

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.
