Hello, welcome back to English with Eleanor.
2
Today I'm going to try to speak slowly for those of
3
you who are learning the language from a lower level and also for those of you who want to practice shadowing.
4
So trying to speak along with me in the same rhythm,
5
copying the stress that I place on words and on different syllables within the words.
6
Today's topic is transport so I'm going to talk a little bit about transport here in Ireland
7
and then I'm going to tell you about a time when I missed the train.
8
So here in Ireland And I have to be honest,
9
public transport is not very reliable.
10
So lots of times the buses don't come when they are supposed to come.
11
So we can wait 10,
12
20, 30 minutes for the bus after the scheduled time.
13
sometimes the bus doesn't come at all.
14
Why are you laughing?
15
Because this happened to me.
16
Sometimes it might never come but the other problem is
17
that our trains are not very well connected unless you want to go to the capital city.
18
In that case there are trains but to connect the more rural parts of the country.
19
There aren't trains and the bus service is not very good.
20
So really in Ireland.
21
You need a car.
22
Unfortunately, it's a fact of life in more rural areas.
23
If you don't have a car,
24
you are quite limited in terms of where and when you can go to the places that you want to go.
25
When I was in Switzerland,
26
however, I saw something completely different.
27
In Switzerland, the public transport is amazing.
28
If the public transport comes at the wrong time,
29
It's actually my watch that is wrong, not the transport.
30
The transport is exactly on time and it's very clean,
31
very safe, very efficient.
32
When I was there, I was a student.
33
So I had a travel card and this gave me discounts off certain train journeys.
34
So one weekend, we, my friends and I,
35
we decided to go to Milan by train because there was a discount
36
for that weekend and the train journey was not very long and we planned to spend the whole weekend in Milan.
37
So I was really excited and my friends were too
38
but before I went there in the week leading up to the weekend that we planned to go to Milan,
39
I was really sick.
40
And when I, on that day,
41
I wasn't sure if I would be able to go,
42
but I had been looking forward to it.
43
And I really wanted to see Milan and I wanted to go with my friends.
44
But when I arrived at the train station to meet them,
45
the train was just leaving.
46
So I knew that I was running late,
47
but I was trying to run. and
48
because I had been sick I didn't have the strength to to run fast enough to get to the train
49
so we missed the train and I was so disappointed and I was so sorry that my friends had missed it too.
50
But thankfully, we were able to get another train.
51
And we got to Milan a little bit later than we planned.
52
But we got there.
53
I remember in Milan, there were trams.
54
I love trams as a form of public transport around a city.
55
I love trams but in Milan the trams are kind of sideways so you are not
56
sitting and looking straight ahead you are beside other people with no barrier between you
57
So when the tram went around a corner,
58
you were sliding into the people beside you or sliding the other way and they were sliding into you.
59
It was probably my worst experience of trams. Should we cut that?
60
A tram is like a bus,
61
but it doesn't have the traffic jams that a bus has.
62
So traffic congestion does not affect trams because trams have their own rails.
63
And they are very quiet and very effective at getting you from A to B.
64
So generally I love trams and in other cities I've used them a lot
65
but in Milan I didn't have such a good experience with them probably
66
because they were quite old and the way they were designed meant that I ended up
67
sliding into the people beside me when we went around a corner or they
68
slid into me so there wasn't enough personal space for me
69
okay just cut all that
70
now I'm going to ask you some questions to see how much you understood of what I told you
71
so question number one is the public transport system in Ireland good or not so good
72
Is the public transport system in Ireland good or not so good?
73
Number two, where was I when I missed the train?
74
So number two, where was I when I missed the train?
75
And number three, last question why did I miss the train why did I miss the train
76
so let me know what your favorite mode of public transport
77
is just mention it in comments I would like to hear about public transport in your country
78
and don't forget to like and subscribe so I'll see you next time you

Attraverso il racconto di una situazione in cui ha perso un treno, offre agli studenti di inglese un'opportunità per esercitarsi con le espressioni quotidiane e il ritmo della lingua. La lezione è progettata per chi sta ancora imparando le basi, ma anche per coloro che vogliono affinare le loro abilità nel shadow speak e migliorare la loro pronuncia. L'argomento centrale è il trasporto, un tema rilevante e utile per le conversazioni di tutti i giorni.

Guida Passo-Passo per il Shadowing

Per trarre il massimo dal video e migliorare le tue abilità di shadowing, segui questi semplici passi:

  1. Ascolta attentamente: Guarda il video almeno una volta senza cercare di parlare. Focalizzati sulla pronuncia e sull'intonazione dell'insegnante.
  2. Pratica il shadowing: Riproduci il video e inizia a parlare simultaneamente con la relatrice. Cerca di imitare non solo le parole, ma anche il ritmo e le emozioni.
  3. Fai pause: Se necessario, metti in pausa il video dopo ogni frase per ripetere e assimilarne la struttura. Questo ti aiuterà a familiarizzare con la lingua e a rafforzare la tua pronuncia.
  4. Rivedi le frasi chiave: Concentrati sulle frasi che hai trovato più utili. Allenati a usarle in situazioni quotidiane nella tua vita reale.
  5. Feedback: Se possibile, chiedi a un amico madrelingua di ascoltare la tua pronuncia e darti dei suggerimenti. Questo è un passo importante per migliorare ulteriormente.

Imparare l'inglese con YouTube è un metodo efficace e divertente. Utilizza questo video come un'opportunità per esplorare nuove parole e frasi, e non dimenticare di sfruttare il shadowing site per praticare ulteriormente. 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.
