Okay, so I have just arrived in Tudor London, 1536, and...
2
No. No, no, no. Oh, oh, that is...
3
Okay, that is fish and smoke and something I genuinely cannot name,
4
and I have made a mistake coming this way.
5
So the plan is I'm going to check in at my room in the inn,
6
get into the market, see how people actually live here,
7
eat whatever they eat, and then later I am meeting the actual king.
8
Yep, Henry VIII in person.
9
Oh, and thank you so much,
10
guys for all the support on my channel it means the
11
world 150 000 of you subscribe to the channel in a

13
So one thing I've noticed about Tudor London,
14
these buildings are just, they lean.
15
They literally lean into each other up there,
16
like they're holding each other up.
17
So, I think they might know I'm not from here.
18
Okay, so this is where I'm staying.
19
The Boar's Head Inn.
20
Sounds ominous.
21
There were hundreds of these little inns by the 1530s.
22
They offered food, drink, rooms,
23
and a place to stable your horse.
24
Whatever people were gossiping about in here,
25
this was the real news of Tudor London.
26
I just need the key.
27
Excuse me.
28
Hi, I'm checking into my room.
29
It's in the name of Chloe.
30
Okay, so these staircases are just, they're tiny.
31
I feel like I'm like,
32
I don't know, like a giant or something.
33
These people were built completely differently to me.
34
Like, Jesus Christ.
35
Oh, it's kind of cute in a medieval kind of way.
36
So the mattress is straw,
37
actual straw, the stuff horses eat.
38
Oh God.
39
I've just noticed the bathroom.
40
Yeah, that pot is the bathroom.
41
Didn't have one of these since my ancient Rome trip.
42
My view is just Tudor life,
43
like unfiltered, happening right now, right outside my window.
44
Anyway, let's get changed into something more Tudor.
45
Okay, new outfit, linen shift underneath,
46
woolen killer on top, overdress over that,
47
and the coif on the head.
48
It is itchy.
49
Very itchy.
50
But I need to blend in.
51
Let's go see Tudor London.
52
Can you believe this place?
53
I mean, it's so authentic.
54
It's like stepping back in time.
55
A pig.
56
I was just taken out by a Tudor pig in my new outfit.
57
Day one.
58
Okay, so Cheapside is the main market street of Tudor London right now,
59
and I was not, I was not prepared for the volume.
60
Every single person in this street is selling something or buying something or moving something,
61
and everyone is doing it at the absolute top of their voice.
62
So apparently eel pie was eaten a lot here,
63
and I have always wanted to try a good British pie so here goes.
64
It's um it's quite earthy but also kind of sweet like I was not expecting the sweet.
65
Not bad actually.
66
That kid is about 10 years old and he has already started his apprenticeship.
67
Like this is his life now.
68
He will do this trade for the rest of his life probably in this exact workshop.
69
There is no school for him.
70
No childhood in the way we understand it.
71
He is actually really good at it though.
72
So this is Fleet Street, 1536.
73
This right here is basically the internet.
74
This is how news travels,
75
how gossip spreads, how the king controls what people think.
76
And Henry VIII already knows exactly how dangerous this is.
77
He started censoring printed works just a few years ago.
78
Okay, so everyone is going somewhere all at once.
79
I have absolutely no idea what what is happening,
80
but I'm going with them.
81
Something is definitely happening up there.
82
So turns out this is not the medieval festival I thought I was going to.
83
It's a public execution.
84
The whole system of keeping order runs entirely on public fear.
85
But it is also just.. entertainment.
86
You like King?
87
You like King?
88
A great and mighty ruler.
89
I don't think he even believed what he was saying.
90
The fear is real.
91
Okay, so this is London Bridge.
92
Over 200 buildings on a bridge.
93
I still cannot process that.
94
At the top of this gatehouse,
95
there are heads on spikes.
96
And everyone just walks under them every single day.
97
Fun fact, London Bridge was the only bridge across the entire city until 1750.
98
And it took 33 years to build.
99
It had homes, shops, a chapel,
100
and even a water wheel.
101
So that is the Tower of London,
102
built by William the Conqueror in 1078.
103
So in 1536, it's almost 500 years old,
104
it was used as a prison,
105
a royal palace, an armory,
106
the royal mint, and where the crown jewels were kept.
107
Oh, and lots of executions happened there too, for good measure.
108
Alright, time to get some dinner.
109
I am just looking for a tavern that seems,
110
you know, like the least noisy option.
111
Maybe this one?
112
Get out!
113
Yeah, maybe not.
114
The tavern.
115
Okay, I mean, I guess it is what it says on the tin.
116
Oh!
117
Okay, so the smell is,
118
it is mud and sweat and tallow and all of it together is, it's a lot.
119
Okay, so ale, pottage, pie,
120
prip, bread, that is the entire menu.
121
Ale, please.
122
Ale and pie, please.
123
Right.
124
So I ordered pie.
125
I got this, which is essentially a very thick stew with some kind of meat in it, I think.
126
It's actually not bad.
127
Like, it's quite herby.
128
I've had worse.
129
So let's try the ale.
130
Okay, I need two hands,
131
so let me put you down a sec.
132
It's not as strong as you think.
133
It's kind of watered-down beer almost.
134
Looks like the party's just arrived.
135
Well, that escalated quickly.
136
I picked the quietest tavern,
137
and now I'm basically clubbing medieval styles.
138
Go figure.
139
Okay, so I'm not sure if you can even see me right now.
140
I really miss street lamps.
141
But that was genuinely one of the best nights I have had in a long time.
142
The music, the dancing, the ale, all of it.
143
Ready to sleep on my straw bed now,
144
if I manage to find it.
145
Okay.
146
So day one, watched a public execution,
147
got knocked over by a pig,
148
and danced in a Tudor tavern.
149
These people.
150
They work so hard and have so little and still find a way to just live.
151
I received this today, an invitation from Henry VIII himself to visit him at Hampton Court Palace.
152
Perks of being a time traveler?
153
But Henry is not the real reason I'm going.
154
Good night.
155
Good morning.
156
And look at this.
157
So apparently this is what you wear to visit the court
158
of Henry VIII The whole thing weighs an absolute ton I
159
can barely move I do not know how women did this every single day
160
So this is the strand
161
Which is meant to be the rich part This road is an absolute state
162
And I say that as someone who lives on a road with potholes
163
so bad the council has given up This is the same Oh my,
164
look at that dress Like, look at it.
165
The embroidery alone, that is hand-stitched.
166
Every single thread of that is done by hand.
167
That would have taken...
168
Right.
169
Okay.
170
Normal.
171
This is just, this is Tuesday for her.
172
This is just what you wear.
173
Okay.
174
So I have just arrived at Hampton Court Palace,
175
and I am, I'm not gonna lie,
176
I am extremely nervous right now.
177
I have one objective today.
178
I need to get to Anne and warn her about that.
179
while also keeping my head firmly on my body.
180
The things I do for my followers.
181
Oh my god, guys.
182
He's coming.
183
He's coming.
184
Ah, you must be Chloe.
185
I have heard a great deal about you.
186
I-yes, that's me.
187
I have absolutely no idea what he has heard.
188
So, you claim to be a traveler from the year 2026?
189
Yes.
190
Very well.
191
Then I would hear most eagerly,
192
what manner of king does history recall me to be?
193
You are very well remembered, your majesty.
194
Your majesty, I am told you have traveled far to be here.
195
You could say that.
196
Meet me in the quarter, it's important.
197
Most good.
198
You shall dine with us this evening,
199
and you may tell me more of how greatly my name is remembered through the ages.
200
I would be honored, your majesty.
201
Dinner with Henry VIII, no pressure.
202
Your majesty, you need to leave now, while you still can.
203
Leave?
204
Leave where, exactly?
205
Anywhere.
206
Anywhere that is not here,
207
Henry is going to betray you.
208
Henry would never do such a thing.
209
But your majesty...
210
I am thinking about absolutely everything right now.
211
The cutlery situation alone, I do not know what half of these are for.
212
How am I sitting?
213
Is this how I sit?
214
What do I eat?
215
In what order?
216
With what?
217
I cannot cope.
218
Okay, sneaky food review.
219
I genuinely do not know what animal this came from.
220
Oh, well it's still not bad.
221
It tastes like luxury with a hint of privilege.
222
No. No, no, no. That is a completely different thing to what happened in the tavern.
223
Second impromptu party of the trip, send help.
224
Come.
225
Let us see if the traveler from the future can manage a pavan.
226
I'm not sure if Anne would approve of this.
227
You know, where I come from,
228
people just kind of move.
229
There are no steps.
230
No steps?
231
How extraordinary barbaric.
232
He's not wrong.
233
Perhaps they danced differently in the year 2006 and 20.
234
Turns out my dancing was enough of a reason to get me kicked out of Hampton Court Palace.
235
In fairness, I did tread on the King of England's foot.
236
Twice.
237
Possibly three times.
238
At least I kept my head.
239
Couldn't wait to take that thing off.
240
Anyway, Tudor London.
241
It is loud, it is chaotic,
242
it smells in ways I did not know were possible.
243
The food is better than you think,
244
the ale grows on you.
245
But in all seriousness, this place is brutal.
246
The disease alone would probably have finished me off within a week.
247
The filth, the fact
248
that you can lose your head for saying the wrong thing to the wrong person on the wrong day.
249
But the people, the people are what holds this place together.
250
Anyway, I'm going back to 2026,
251
or forward rather, to have an absolutely burning hot shower.

Guida passo-passo al Shadowing
Il shadowing in inglese è una tecnica efficace per migliorare la pronuncia e la fluidità. Ecco un piano di studio da seguire mentre guardi il video:
- Rivedi il video senza suono: Osserva il linguaggio del corpo del narratore e le espressioni facciali per comprendere il contesto.
- Ascolta il video attentamente: Fai attenzione alla pronuncia delle parole e alle intonazioni. Presta attenzione a frasi come "What do people eat here?" per comprendere come vengono utilizzate nel discorso.
- Pratica il shadowspeak: Ripeti le frasi appena ascoltate, cercando di imitare il tono e la velocità del narratore. Questo aiuta a migliorare la pronuncia inglese e a familiarizzare con i suoni.
- Fai registrazioni: Riascolta le tue registrazioni per notare eventuali differenze e aree di miglioramento. Concentrati su suoni difficili o frasi lunghe.
- Applica le frasi nella vita reale: Utilizza le frasi apprese durante il video in conversazioni quotidiane. Questo rafforza l'apprendimento e rende la pratica più naturale.
Utilizzando queste tecniche, come la registrazione e la riflessione sulle tue prestazioni, puoi sfruttare al meglio il shadowing site e affinare la tua abilità nell'inglese parlato. Ricorda, la chiave è la pratica costante!
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.
