126
And here's a little calm pigeon.
127
You're chilled out aren't you?
128
You're not going to fight with them nasty seagulls.
129
- Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo.
130
- Hello guys.
131

134
along the beach.
135
We're gonna go find a cafe, get warm, it's very cold.
136
Chang needs a wee.
137
A wee is a P, a P is a piss.
138
Piss is a rude word, yeah.
139
find a cafe, drink some coffee, rest, relax.
140
So on the right here, this is a promenade, which is a walkway along the beach.
141
And On the beach, on the sand, there are three people playing a casual game of volleyball.
142
She is.
143
hitting the volleyball over the net. and screaming.
144
And coming here is a very fluffy white dog.
145
Over there is a fountain.
146
The water is gushing out.
147
Good word that, gush.
148
It's gushing out.
149
This is a path that we are walking on and either side of the path There are trees.
150
Okay.
151
They are lining either side of the path.
152
- Okay.
153
I'm going to go.
154
Thanks.
155
Heh heh.
156
In the distance is a statue of an astronaut sitting on a planet.
157
The planet looks like maybe Mars?
158
To the right of the astronaut we have a giant statue of the earth.
159
the globe.
160
And we all live on this Massive but tiny.
161
blue dots.
162
Puts things into perspective doesn't it?
163
And what I find mad is that this is massive, All this is massive.
164
But really, compared to that up there, We're tiny.
165
And that just goes on for miles and miles and miles.
166
And maybe People like astronauts.
167
we'll discover it. Who knows?
168
The world is a tiny place.
169
And we are even tinier.
170
That's quite cool.
171
Huh.
172
And over here we have some more spheres or orbs You can see the colour of them,
173
it's purple and blue and it changes as the light hits it.
174
We call this iridescent.
175
The colour is iridescent, which means it changes as the light hits it.
176

190
Let's call it a beeper.
191

204
The plan now is enjoy the sunset.
205

206
Amen.
207
Probably go for a cheeky drink.
208
and some food.
209
- Mm -hmm.
210
There's a mysterious lady crossing the road.
211
1709. Time.
212
for a pint.
213
That's the British way.
214
After five, come alive.
215
Bang bang, private wine place.
216
Mmm.
217
It does sound fishy.
218
Bang bang.
219
This way, Chang.
220
John Chang Bang bang!
221
Oh yes.
222
Nice cold pint.
223
Cheers.
224
Pints with a view.
225
Crisp, golden, refreshing.
226
Nice pint after a long day.
227
That's a very British thing to do, to drink on an empty stomach.
228
So, you get a little bit drunk, a bit tipsy, then you go eat.
229
So we just arrived at this seafood restaurant and we have lots of side dishes.
230
She just brought us lots of side dishes.
231
In the UK it's not common to share so many dishes.
232
We actually We have our own dish, usually fish and chips by the sea and we eat it to ourselves.
233
This is new to me.
234
to experience this and share a hot pot.
235
I'm excited to try.
236
So there are just some people to arrive next to us.
237
And again, In England.
238
We don't like to be near people.
239
We like to have we call it I hear you.
240
Personal space.
241
We like to be far away from each other.
242
We like to have a good amount of personal space, but yeah, it's not such a thing.
243
So here we go experiencing new things.
244
broadening my mind.
245
So I'm swirling the rice wine around.
246
This is a bottle of rice wine which we discovered last night.
247
It's very delicious actually.
248
Soothes the tongue.
249
Makes it feel less spicy, less intense.
250
The ramen has arrived in a silver sauce pack.
251
It's boiling hot.
252
We're still waiting for the hot pot.
253
We're gonna dig in to the ramen.
254
So I've got my tongs.
255
Tongs.
256
Got my ladle.
257
Ladle.
258
Let's get some broth first of all.
259
I'm ladling the broth.
260
Taking a clam.
261
This is a hot pot and I think it's definitely going to get eaten.
262
They're a staff taking care of the hot pot, which again is very strange.
263
In England they usually just give you food and leave you.
264
I might say it like this, let's chow down on some hot pots.
265
See you next time.
266
Thank you.
267
Okay.
268
You're a legend and I appreciate you.
269
I wanted to take this time to sit down and talk with you about my new English learning platform,
270
Sprouts, and I want to share all the value that's you can have on Sprout.
271
So we just released a new feature which is "JI".
272
It's an AI version of me that you can talk with to improve your English.
273
Now, why is this better than talking with ChatGPT?
274
Well, on Sprout you can watch a video, at your level, whether that's A1 or C1,
275
and then after you watch that video you can speak with J .I.
276
about that video.
277
He will ask you questions about what happened in the video, what you think about the video, what words you learned in the video,
278
And through this you will be practicing your speaking, your outputs.
279
You're also practicing listening, learning through comprehensible inputs.
280
On Sprout we have thousands of videos and they are all designed to help you become fluent in English through
281
the listening process.
282
through immersion.
283
I've designed it in a way that I want it to be this all -in -one platform
284
for you to be able to become fluent in English.
285
for you to be able to practice all things, listening, speaking, writing, building vocabulary.
286
And this is only just the beginning.
287
I'm really excited about what Sprout will continue to grow and evolve into.
288
And I really hope that you're there with me on this journey.
289
I want to be able to grow myself
290
and I want to give you the platform to be able to grow your English too.
291
So I appreciate all your support and you can check out Sprout.
292
There is one week free.
293
Let me know what you think of J .I and Thank you.
294
Take care.
295
Have a lovely day.
296
Bye -bye.

Come esercitarsi con questo video

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.
