Pratica di Shadowing: Is Siri AI Usable for English Learning? - Impara a parlare inglese con i video
Creazione lezione...
1
Siri has been bad for a long, long time.
2
Is it finally better?
3
Well, that's what we're going to find out in this video.
4
Specifically, is the new and improved Siri AI in iOS 27 good for English learning practice?
5
There are a lot of interesting new features, not just the ability to have an ongoing chat, but the ability to move between apps.
6
So I'm excited to check that out and figure out how useful it can be.

And of course, check out the 90 -day program in the links in the description.

Right now, on sale, 15 % off.
10
I'm going to change voices because the voice that I usually use for Siri, please don't judge me for this.
11
I just, I prefer it.
12
I don't know why.
13
I just like it.
14
Hi, I'll practice some things I like to say while you listen.
15
Let me try this one out.
16
You have one new message.
17
Here's another one.
18
Your timer is set for one minute
19
But since we're working on the right voice for you English I'll practice some things I like to say while you listen.
20
Let me try this one out.
21
You have hi Listen to let's find the right voice for you.
22
I'll practice some things.
23
I like to say while you listen Let me try this one out.
24
Let me try this one out.
25
You have one new message.
26
Here's another one Here's another one like
27
that your timer is set for one minute now for some directions at the next Okay.
28
Let's go American.
29
Let's find the right voice for you.
30
I'll practice some things I like to say while you listen.
31
Let me try this one out.
32
You have one new message.
33
You have one new message.
34
No. Here's another one.
35
Your timer is set for one minute.
36
I think this is the standard classic Siri.
37
At the next stop sign, let's go around again.
38
It's good that you can slow it down a bit.
39
Let's go around again.
40
More expressive.
41
Let me try this one out.
42
Let's just keep it like this.
43
Okay.
44
Now, what is different?
45
Well, among other things, you can have a standalone chat.
46
So just like you can ChatGPT or Gemini or Claude, you can start a new chat and you can have a dedicated chat.
47
So if you're doing something, if you make a request, any request on your phone, then you can immediately turn that into a chat about that,
48
which lives then in a history that you can review later.
49
So let's try that by itself and then we'll explore going around the internet a little bit.
50
Hey, I just have a few spare minutes.
51
I'm on my lunch break.
52
Do you think you could help me practice my spoken English?
53
I would love to help you practice your spoken English.
54
Since you are on your lunch break, we could talk about food or anything else you would like.
55
What are you having?
56
That's a little bit boring.
57
I don't want to just talk about the thing I'm doing.
58
As we go, maybe you can give me some simple corrections, but give me three topics to choose from.
59
I can certainly help you practice your English.
60
Here are three topics we can chat about.
61
Your favorite travel destination, a movie or book you recently enjoyed, or what you like to do on the weekend.
62
All right, those are a little boring.
63
Can you give me one that's kind of off the wall and crazy?
64
If you want something a little more unusual, let's try this.
65
If you were suddenly put in charge of designing a brand new, completely ridiculous Olympic sport, what would it be?
66
And what are the rules?
67
What kind of sport are you picturing?
68
This, I think, are a little more interesting of topic.
69
If I can invent one sport for Olympics, I think the answer is easy, napping.
70
And the thing that's interesting about napping as sport is how it's score.
71
It's score by the quality of resting you get and maybe something relate to the dreams you have.
72
That is a fantastic idea for a sport.
73
I would definitely tune in to watch competitive napping.
74
Since you asked for some simple corrections, here are a few small adjustments to make your sentences sound a bit more natural.
75
Instead of, this I think are a little more interesting of topic, you could say, I think this topic is a little more interesting.
76
Also, Instead of how it's score, you can say how it is scored.
77
Your idea about judging based on REM sleep and dreams is really creative.
78
How would the athletes train for a sport like this?
79
Before we continue, can you send that summary of your correction as text message to Mushroom?
80
Ready to send it?
81
Yes.
82
It's sent?
83
Okay, we can continue.
84
Great.
85
Let's get back to your Olympic napping sport.
86
I'm really curious about the training regimen.
87
How do you think athletes would prepare for a competition like this?
88
What kind of training?
89
I want to change what we practice.
90
Can you teach me the pronunciation of the word U -S -U -A -L -L -Y?
91
Here's how to pronounce it.
92
U -S -U -A -L -L -Y.
93
It is typically pronounced as three syllables.
94
Usually.
95
Would you like to try using it in a sentence?
96
Well, you said two things.
97
You said U -S -U -A -L -L -Y and you said usually.
98
Which one is the right one?
99
The correct pronunciation is usually.
100
I apologize if it sounded confusing before.
101
Okay, like this.
102
You jua ali.
103
I apologize for the confusion.
104
The correct pronunciation is usually.
105
You shoo ali.
106
When I said you usually.
107
What I said was wrong.
108
You jua ali.
109
I apologize for the confusion.
110
The correct pronunciation is usually.
111
You shoo ali.
112
When you tried to say it just now, it sounded a bit like you ali.
113
To get the right sound, make sure to blend the...
114
I think you're kind of talking in circles.
115
Sorry, something's gone wrong.
116
Can you find resources online?
117
I can certainly help you find some resources.
118
I found several highly rated websites and tools for practicing English pronunciation online,
119
including BBC Learning English, Pronuncien, and the ELSA Speak app.
120
These offer a mix of interactive games, video lessons, and real -time feedback to help you improve.
121
Would you like...
122
Yes, but for pronunciation, can they all actually listen to your pronunciation?
123
I've heard that English Fluency in 90 Days by Luke Pretty has pronunciation practice under lessons
124
that can actually give pronunciation feedback based on what it hears.
125
Yes, that is correct.
126
The English Fluency in 90 Days program by Luke Prady does include AI pronunciation feedback.
127
When you complete pronunciation practice modules within the lessons, the system provides immediate, detailed feedback on your speaking flow,
128
lesson completion, and specific phonemes.
129
Would you like me to look up more details about the specific courses included in the program?
130
just what just one more thing i heard that there was a sale going on until the 22nd
131
uh like 15 off is that right can
132
that be i couldn't find any information about a 15 off
133
sale ending on the 22nd for the english fluency in 90
134
days program however there is a 30 discount discount available using the code LOWILTE
135
and completing their seven -day English challenge unlocks a $40 course for free actually
136
that coupon code is for something else and was a long time ago
137
and not for the 90 -day program I can tell you right now 15 off the 90 -day program just
138
so you I apologize for the 22nd of September.
139
Thanks for letting me know.
140
I wasn't able to find that specific 15 % off promotion in my search results.
141
But it's good to know it runs until September 22nd if you're planning to sign up.
142
Listen, I'd love to have you help me promote the 90 -day program all day, but I don't think it's the most interesting content in the world.
143
So let's continue with the testing.
144
Can you open up the webpage that I have in Safari?
145
Good.
146
Are you still there?
147
So I have to reactivate.
148
So I'm reading this quote from Marshall McLuhan.
149
The medium is the message.
150
This is merely to say that the personal and social consequences of any medium, that is, of any extension of ourselves,
151
result from the new scale that is introduced into our affairs by each extension of ourselves or by any new technology.
152
Can't quite get my head around it.
153
That's a pretty heady quote.
154
Can you simplify it for me?
155
Marshall McLuhan's quote means that the way information is delivered,
156
the medium, has a much bigger impact on society than the actual information being delivered, the content.
157
He viewed media as extensions of ourselves because Because they amplify human capabilities,
158
and he argued that the true message of any technology is the fundamental change in scale, pace, or pattern it introduces into our lives.
159
Can you give me a few examples?
160
McLuhan's favorite example was the electric light.
161
It has no content like a TV show or a newspaper article
162
but its mere presence fundamentally changed society by eliminating the boundaries of day and night,
163
allowing for entirely new ways to work and socialize.
164
Television versus print.
165
Reading a news story in a newspaper.
166
I gotcha.
167
That's enough.
168
Thank you.
169
Can you take this with the original quote?
170
If you could copy and paste it, that'd be great.
171
And pop it into a new note?
172
I've created a new note with the original quote and the explanation for you.
173
Yeah, I see it.
174
Fantastic.
175
I've got the note.
176
Can you also create a reminder for me to find a quote every day?
177
Or yeah, just add a reminder.
178
And then if there's a way for you to actually give me a quote every day.
179
I've created a daily I can't automatically send you a quote every day
180
but I've set up your daily reminder to find one here
181
is a quote to get you start can you add the link to
182
that website where I found the previous quote to the daily reminder
183
so that I can just tap on it to open the new quote of the day.
184
All right.
185
Thank you.
186
This is really interesting.
187
If I rate just the conversation in the standalone chat and compare it to ChatGPT,
188
Claude, Gemini, Grok, I don't think it's quite at that level.
189
Maybe because it's, as far as I know, running locally.
190
And so it's just not quite on the level in terms of intuition.
191
Although the feedback was fine.
192
The interesting topic was fine.
193
The back and forth was fine.
194
It's not bad.
195
It really isn't bad, especially if you compare it to Siri from, well, any previous Siri.
196
Any complicated request, anything, would just give you, here's what I found on the web, and that's it.
197
I would only ever set alarms, and that's about it, set alarms.
198
So it's a big leap from that, and the thing that I think makes it interesting is not
199
that the interaction is so much better it's
200
that it's native on the phone and so it can do things natively
201
that are harder to do in general with chat gpt
202
or claude and certainly can't happen natively on your phone through connections you can set up chat gpt work
203
so that it sends messages through imessage and browses the web
204
and check your email you can do you can do
205
that stuff but But it's not using your phone's native operating system like Siri is.
206
Siri can open Safari, your Safari, look at the thing that's there, actually read it, talk about it with you,
207
make a summary, rewrite it, rewrite it, save it to a note on your phone or send it to someone
208
or to yourself in iMessage or as an email or add a reminder to your reminders.
209
And all of that's happening natively on your phone.
210
That is the interesting part.
211
So maybe as the interactions get better, it will become the way to go.
212
It is very cool to be able to just do that kind of stuff through conversation.
213
The thing that is a little frustrating that could be improved is persistence.
214
So when I went from one thing to the next, Siri went away.
215
But if Siri is there with me as a kind of companion,
216
I want the same Siri chat to come with me to Safari to talk about the thing, to do the summary, then move over to notes to work through it,
217
to do a summary, to set up the reminder.
218
And for all of that to have a continuous presence, me and Siri.
219
There's then a real assistant living in my phone, doing things for me, using my phone.
220
That's when it becomes, I think, really, really interesting.
221
But I'm very impressed with the ability to adjust the voices, to slow it down, to change the intensity.
222
I'm very impressed with the ability to move between different apps.
223
Of course, this is if you're on an iPhone.
224
I'm disappointed that it's taken so long to get to this point.
225
I'm not overwhelmed by the quality of the interaction, but it's okay.
226
I'm not surprised by the fact that it can't process pronunciation.
227
And I'm looking forward to testing it further to see how it can kind of fit into my daily life
228
and help me do things more intuitively.
229
So that's something that I hope continues to get better.
230
Now, speaking of that pronunciation feedback, yes, it is so frustrating that when you want to practice pronunciation, AI can't do it.
231
Except some can, including, as mentioned, the 90 -day program.
232
Now, under specific lessons, pronunciation lessons in the 90 -day program where there's real practice to do,
233
there is beneath it a place to do immediate pronunciation practice.
234
and get immediate feedback not on the text
235
but on the actual pronunciation on the phonemes the sounds the flow intonation
236
and it is quite accurate beyond
237
that as you go through the program you do role plays
238
you get feedback on role plays you complete assignments get feedback
239
on assignments you do level checks to check your level throughout the program all of this
240
while you're completing over 50 hours of video lessons
241
and you get help from me throughout via whatsapp And I really think this is the best way to learn English, because if you just randomly practice with AI,
242
it's just kind of this aimless thing.
243
It's fine, it's good practice, but it's aimless.
244
Here, you're following structured content created by someone who knows what they're doing, who spent years building that content,
245
and to complete the feedback loop and actually build the skill, practicing the thing you just learned, getting immediate feedback, trying it again,
246
immediate feedback and then if you you know need help further I'm right there on whatsapp
247
and I'm very responsive so check that out in the link in the description
248
if you're watching this later
249
and it's not 15 % off I honestly think it is still a really really great deal
250
so link in the description let me know what you think of Siri the new
251
and improved Siri in iOS 27 thank you for watching and I'll see you in the next one.

Il contesto: Praticare l'inglese con Siri, una nuova sfida
Il video esplora se la nuova versione di Siri in iOS 27 possa essere un tool utile per imparare l'inglese, specialmente per chi vuole migliorare la conversazione e la pronuncia. Nella discussione, si parla di funzionalità come i chat standalone, simili a ChatGPT o Gemini, e di come sperimentare con le voci per esercitarsi in contesti reali, come ricevere messaggi o impostare un timer. Questo scenario riflette situazioni quotidiane in cui l'inglese è usato in modo pratico, rendendolo perfetto per esercizi di shadowing e pronuncia.
Frasi e collocazioni utili da memorizzare
- "Have a standalone chat": Esprime l'idea di avere una conversazione indipendente, senza interruzioni. Utile per parlare di strumenti di chat.
- "Set a timer for one minute": Una collocazione pratica per impostare un timer, molto usata in contesti di routine quotidiana.
- "Move between apps": Per descrivere l'azione di passare da un'app all'altra, fondamentale nel mondo digitale.
- "Slow it down a bit": Un modo naturale per chiedere di ridurre la velocità, utile per migliorare la comprensione.
- "Dedicated chat": Indica una chat specifica per un argomento, spesso usata in contesti di lavoro o studi.
La sfida di shadowing: Impara a imitare la pronuncia
Per migliorare la pronuncia inglese con il metodo shadowing, segui questi passaggi: ascolta il frammento del video dove si dice "You have one new message. Here's another one. Your timer is set for one minute", riproduci il audio e imita immediatamente la pronuncia, l'intonazione e il ritmo. Ripeti il processo 5 volte, cercando di essere il più fedele possibile. Questo esercizio, noto anche come "shadow speech", aiuta a rafforzare la memoria muscolare e a rendere la pronuncia più fluida. Per esercitarti ulteriormente, usa un shadowing site o un'app che ti permetta di confrontare la tua registrazione con l'originale.
Se vuoi approfondire, usa i video come strumento per imparare l'inglese: guarda il contenuto più volte, analizza le frasi e applica il metodo shadowing. Con la pratica costante, noterai un miglioramento nella tua capacità di parlare inglese in modo naturale.
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | is set · is scored · is introduced |
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | has been · I've heard · I've created |
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.
