1
This is the third of three videos for American actors to learn how to do a British accent convincingly.
2
In video two I covered the main issue, so you may already be able to do quite a good British accent already.
3
This film covers all the vowels of the British accent that we're concentrating on, and it may feel rather boring to concentrate on vowels for five minutes,
4
but we're going to get them right.
5
And there's an enormous amount of work for American actors who can do a British accent right.
6
Right.
7
We have to start with a silly sentence which contains all the British vowel sounds.
8
So just say the words after me please.
9
Through good tone, or not part,
10
must serve and then shape fit speech.
11
And when I say all these words please, as with the other films, I'll wave at the camera and they'll probably be up on the screen and just say them straight away please.
12
And then we'll be able to squeeze all of them in.
13
Just repeat these words starting with the word through,
14
which has the same vowel as fool, pool, boot, food.
15
Don't try to remember these words, just let them flow into your mind and sort themselves out.
16
The second word of the sentence is good.
17
The same vowel sound as full, would, bull, could.
18
So obviously fool and fool, fool and fool are very different.
19
As are pull and pool, hood and hood.
20
The first word was through.
21
So the first word was through.
22
Same as flew, who, blew, cue, rude, grew.
23
And the other main word was could, as in could, should, would.
24
Now the next three words of that funny sentence are TONE The same vowel as COLD BONE
25
OLD BOAT bone, old, boat, home, throw, throat.
26
So we've had the words through, good, tone.
27
And now the word all.
28
The same vowel sound as in fall.
29
Nought.
30
Sport.
31
North.
32
Born.
33
So we've got the first four words of the sentence.
34
Through good tone all.
35
The next word of the sentence is not.
36
The same vowel sound as in log.
37
Hot. From.
38
Rob.
39
Got.
40
Shot.
41
And now please say the fifth word, and all the others of course, of course, but it's part.
42
Part.
43
The same vowel sound as in arm, laugh, guard, must. Must.
44
And now the word must. Must.
45
Same vowel as in bun, run, club, southern, honey.
46
So those three words were not part must.
47
So the ones we've covered in the sentence so far are through good tone, all not part must.
48
So we're over halfway through and the next word to look at is serve.
49
The same vowel sound as in burnt, girl, curl, bird, curb.
50
The next sound is and, ah, and.
51
Hat, tan, lamb, mad.
52
Good.
53
So again, through good tone, all not part. Must serve and.
54
And I'm not wanting you to have to make too much of an effort on this.
55
just hear the vowels and hopefully find yourself saying this sentence a little bit more Britishly,
56
not through good tone, all not part, must serve and just through good tone,
57
all not part, must serve and We want the British accent to just sound natural,
58
to just be the way you happen to pronounce things.
59
So the last four words of the sentence start with then.
60
Debt.
61
Help.
62
Friend.
63
The next word is shape, which has the same vowel sound as...
64
Skate.
65
Same.
66
Paid. And now fit.
67
The word fit.
68
Him.
69
Kiss.
70
Dig.
71
And the last word of all, speech.
72
Speech.
73
Same vowel sound as tea.
74
Cream.
75
Seat.
76
Ease.
77
So there's a difference between all these vowels, obviously, but I hope we've established that difference a little bit more clearly in your minds.
78
So let's just say out loud, please, these two.
79
Two stood.
80
Coat, court.
81
Hot, heart. Must, mast.
82
and end hat hit heat
83
Now amongst all the millions of words to be spoken there are always combinations in every accent
84
so the word house in American is usually pronounced as a combination of ha and oo,
85
a house, my house.
86
and just as we pronounce the word ask in British as ask, ha becomes ha.
87
It's a house, not a house, a house.
88
House.
89
These things will start running around in your mind automatically once you start listening to vowels
90
when people speak with a British accent, when you're watching British videos.
91
And if you're watching any of my MadEnglishman.com ones, they are only for a laugh and the accent is a much more extreme one than this.
92
I can't really say much more to help you individually unless I'm working with you
93
and I do work with people on Skype if you're a long way from New York and you want to do that.
94
There's also a lot of free help on my website with lots of advice about how to feel British
95
and that doesn't cost you anything and...
96
And remember, of course, that more important than anything, more important than the costume,
97
the money, the accent, anything, with the possible exception of being heard,
98
which is incredibly important, be clearly spoken whatever character you're playing.
99
But the most important thing is to be true.
100
That's what we become actors for.
101
So if you've only got a day to go before you open, don't worry too much about the accent.
102
Sort out the truth of your character.
103
And if you've got some time in advance, sort out a perfect accent.
104
So there we are.

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.
