1:24.86 – 1:26.86 (2.0s)

Please, we can make it work.

Book it.

Okay, where's my wallet?

1:52.76 – 1:54.28 (1.5s)

No, no.

1:55.54 – 1:56.28 (0.7s)

Use my card.

1:56.28 – 1:57.70 (1.4s)

2:30.66 – 2:32.14 (1.5s)

Don't tell me you forgot your passport.

2:32.98 – 2:35.06 (2.1s)

You must provide a passport for all international flights.

2:35.98 – 2:39.10 (3.1s)

No, no.

2:40.00 – 2:40.54 (0.5s)

2:40.54 – 2:42.16 (1.6s)

It's got to be here somewhere.

2:42.16 – 2:43.56 (1.4s)

Let me think.

2:44.66 – 2:45.58 (0.9s)

It was on the counter.

2:45.58 – 2:47.42 (1.8s)

Uh-oh.

2:48.26 – 2:48.80 (0.5s)

But then I picked it up, and I was going to put it in my backpack.

2:49.96 – 2:53.84 (3.9s)

But then I remember the zipper was broken.

2:54.20 – 2:57.04 (2.8s)

Ryan?

2:58.16 – 2:58.42 (0.3s)

Wait.

3:46.44 – 3:47.42 (1.0s)

3:47.42 – 3:49.64 (2.2s)

When you get to the end, turn right.

3:50.50 – 3:52.48 (2.0s)

The restroom is on the left just after the elevators.

3:53.28 – 3:56.06 (2.8s)

So that's past the cafe, then turn right, and it's on the left?

3:58.06 – 4:02.30 (4.2s)

Exactly.

4:03.40 – 4:04.34 (0.9s)

It's on the left between the currency exchange office and the car rental office.

4:17.50 – 4:22.16 (4.7s)

4:24.14 – 4:28.72 (4.6s)

That's right.

4:30.26 – 4:30.78 (0.5s)

4:39.89 – 4:40.35 (0.5s)

Hmm, I don't see it.

4:39.81 – 4:41.15 (1.3s)

Do you have a confirmation number?

4:40.35 – 4:41.89 (1.5s)

I have it.

4:41.35 – 4:41.45 (0.1s)

Here you go.

4:42.35 – 4:42.45 (0.1s)

Oh yes, it looks like you were scheduled to check in yesterday.

4:43.35 – 4:59.31 (16.0s)

That's right, but our first flight was delayed.

5:00.45 – 5:03.55 (3.1s)

We missed our connecting flight and couldn't get another one until this morning.

5:04.07 – 5:07.13 (3.1s)

I understand.

5:08.01 – 5:09.25 (1.2s)

Let me see what I can do.

5:08.59 – 5:11.11 (2.5s)

Thank you.

5:11.87 – 5:12.67 (0.8s)

So, it looks like the system canceled your reservation when you missed your check-in.

5:12.87 – 5:17.59 (4.7s)

100

Oh, no.

5:18.75 – 5:19.63 (0.9s)

101

And when that happened, your room became available for others to book.

5:20.11 – 5:24.23 (4.1s)

102

Now it is no longer available.

5:24.73 – 5:27.23 (2.5s)

103

Please, is there anything you can do?

5:28.99 – 5:30.91 (1.9s)

104

Actually, yes.

5:31.73 – 5:33.43 (1.7s)

105

is a seaside room that is available.

5:33.95 – 5:35.97 (2.0s)

106

I can book you in for that room for no extra charge.

5:35.97 – 5:40.57 (4.6s)

107

Oh, thank you so much!

5:41.41 – 5:43.31 (1.9s)

108

Also, that room comes with the all-inclusive deluxe package.

5:43.31 – 5:47.89 (4.6s)

109

What's that?

5:49.09 – 5:49.83 (0.7s)

110

Well, your original booking was all-inclusive standard, which provided you with a free buffet and family pool access.

5:49.83 – 5:58.59 (8.8s)

111

That's right.

6:00.45 – 6:01.13 (0.7s)

112

The Deluxe also includes access to the resort restaurants, a private beach, and a Deluxe members-only pool.

6:02.17 – 6:09.79 (7.6s)

113

Really?

6:12.13 – 6:12.33 (0.2s)

114

That's great!

6:13.09 – 6:13.91 (0.8s)

115

Where is the private beach and other pool?

6:13.91 – 6:17.11 (3.2s)

116

Here is a resort map.

6:18.19 – 6:19.53 (1.3s)

117

The beach access is here.

6:19.53 – 6:21.55 (2.0s)

118

And next to it is the members-only pool.

6:22.85 – 6:25.31 (2.5s)

119

What about the restaurants?

6:26.67 – 6:27.45 (0.8s)

120

There are three restaurants.

6:28.91 – 6:30.47 (1.6s)

121

The Michelin star restaurant is located at the front of the resort.

6:31.71 – 6:35.19 (3.5s)

122

Make sure you make your reservation for that one in advance.

6:36.95 – 6:40.13 (3.2s)

123

Good to know.

6:40.41 – 6:41.27 (0.9s)

124

There is also the local, which serves a more traditional cuisine, located here.

6:42.05 – 6:46.99 (4.9s)

125

And then there's the lounge here, which also serves food.

6:47.79 – 6:51.19 (3.4s)

126

Perfect!

6:54.71 – 6:55.55 (0.8s)

127

Here are your room kits and the resort map.

6:56.27 – 6:58.83 (2.6s)

128

My associate here will show you two rooms.

6:59.39 – 7:02.19 (2.8s)

129

You know, I think missing our flight turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

7:02.91 – 7:06.73 (3.8s)

130

Ordering room service breakfast.

7:12.81 – 7:14.43 (1.6s)

131

132

I'd like to order room service, please.

7:21.35 – 7:22.93 (1.6s)

133

7:22.63 – 7:25.09 (2.5s)

134

What room number?

7:25.33 – 7:26.33 (1.0s)

135

7:27.03 – 7:28.17 (1.1s)

136

Great.

7:28.93 – 7:29.15 (0.2s)

137

What can I get for you?

7:29.67 – 7:30.57 (0.9s)

138

I'll have blueberry pancakes with syrup and an orange juice, please.

7:31.61 – 7:35.61 (4.0s)

140

Anything else?

7:37.25 – 7:37.89 (0.6s)

141

Yes.

7:39.27 – 7:39.47 (0.2s)

142

One moment.

7:39.13 – 7:40.17 (1.0s)

143

7:41.45 – 7:43.17 (1.7s)

144

Hold on.

7:43.83 – 7:44.21 (0.4s)

145

Let me see what it was called again.

7:44.77 – 7:45.95 (1.2s)

149

Okay.

7:52.65 – 7:52.95 (0.3s)

150

Wait.

7:53.77 – 7:53.99 (0.2s)

151

Does that come with bacon or sausage?

7:54.71 – 7:56.75 (2.0s)

152

Does that come with bacon or sausage?

7:57.83 – 7:59.97 (2.1s)

153

You get to choose.

8:00.59 – 8:01.81 (1.2s)

154

Your choice.

8:02.55 – 8:03.21 (0.7s)

155

I want both if possible.

8:04.45 – 8:05.77 (1.3s)

156

Can we get both?

8:06.71 – 8:07.47 (0.8s)

157

Sure.

8:08.51 – 8:08.79 (0.3s)

158

And how would you like your eggs?

8:09.57 – 8:10.67 (1.1s)

159

How do you want your eggs?

8:11.95 – 8:13.31 (1.4s)

160

Scrambled.

8:14.49 – 8:14.93 (0.4s)

161

Scrambled.

8:16.01 – 8:16.71 (0.7s)

162

Oh, and in the picture on the menu, it looks like there's cheese on there.

8:17.39 – 8:20.91 (3.5s)

163

Is there cheese?

8:21.93 – 8:22.47 (0.5s)

164

Is there cheese on that?

8:23.63 – 8:24.91 (1.3s)

165

No.

8:25.61 – 8:26.17 (0.6s)

166

Would you like to add that too?

8:26.17 – 8:27.43 (1.3s)

167

Did you want cheese?

8:28.47 – 8:29.65 (1.2s)

168

No.

8:30.33 – 8:30.57 (0.2s)

169

8:30.57 – 8:32.27 (1.7s)

170

Anything else?

171

8:34.15 – 8:34.67 (0.5s)

172

That's it.

8:34.67 – 8:35.19 (0.5s)

173

Wait.

8:36.19 – 8:36.43 (0.2s)

174

What?

8:37.27 – 8:37.45 (0.2s)

175

I also wanted to know if I could change the side.

8:38.35 – 8:40.59 (2.2s)

176

I don't want fruit if there's cantaloupe.

8:41.63 – 8:43.25 (1.6s)

177

Can I get hash browns instead?

8:44.09 – 8:45.39 (1.3s)

178

Hold on, please.

8:46.79 – 8:47.55 (0.8s)

179

Why don't you just order your own food?

8:48.59 – 8:50.47 (1.9s)

180

Yeah, maybe that's best.

8:51.73 – 8:53.49 (1.8s)

181

Booking a tour Can I help you?

8:55.67 – 9:01.61 (5.9s)

182

Is this where we book a tour?

9:02.61 – 9:03.73 (1.1s)

183

Yes, it is.

9:05.27 – 9:06.17 (0.9s)

184

Where were you thinking of going?

9:06.45 – 9:07.55 (1.1s)

185

We're not exactly sure.

9:08.71 – 9:09.95 (1.2s)

186

Someone on the plane recommended some ruins, but that's about all we know of.

9:10.83 – 9:15.05 (4.2s)

187

Ah, yes.

9:15.89 – 9:16.87 (1.0s)

188

There are some ancient ruins in the National Park.

9:17.59 – 9:19.67 (2.1s)

189

That's about two hours away, however, so we offer that tour as a day excursion.

9:21.77 – 9:25.97 (4.2s)

190

And what does that include?

9:26.99 – 9:27.91 (0.9s)

191

The guided tour, which is in English, will pick you up in front of the hotel and take you to the National Park.

9:29.05 – 9:35.23 (6.2s)

192

Not only does the tour include the price of admissions, but it also includes lunch and some free time for shopping.

9:36.99 – 9:43.01 (6.0s)

193

Maybe we'll do that one later in the week.

9:44.37 – 9:46.47 (2.1s)

194

Yeah, it's already noon.

9:47.25 – 9:48.87 (1.6s)

195

Is there any tour we can do today?

9:49.73 – 9:51.23 (1.5s)

196

Of course.

9:52.41 – 9:52.95 (0.5s)

197

There is a half-day tour to Tower Hill.

9:53.41 – 9:55.33 (1.9s)

198

That includes a carriage ride to the top and entrance to the gardens.

9:56.29 – 9:59.51 (3.2s)

199

It's offered twice a day, at sunrise and sunset.

10:00.89 – 10:03.73 (2.8s)

200

You could still sign up for the sunset tour today.

10:05.01 – 10:07.01 (2.0s)

201

That sounds nice.

10:08.15 – 10:09.07 (0.9s)

202

The views are stunning.

10:09.97 – 10:11.31 (1.3s)

203

You won't regret it.

10:11.81 – 10:12.87 (1.1s)

204

Can't we just hike to the top ourselves?

10:14.21 – 10:15.93 (1.7s)

205

You can, but it takes about two to three hours each way.

10:17.31 – 10:20.61 (3.3s)

206

I see.

10:21.43 – 10:21.83 (0.4s)

207

Well, are there any free tours we can do?

10:22.87 – 10:25.55 (2.7s)

208

Sure.

10:27.47 – 10:27.71 (0.2s)

209

There is a free city walking tour that starts in front of the information center and ends near the pier.

10:28.43 – 10:34.27 (5.8s)

210

Oh, yeah.

10:36.73 – 10:37.27 (0.5s)

211

I remember now.

10:37.67 – 10:38.87 (1.2s)

212

That's one of the places I want to see as well.

10:38.77 – 10:41.13 (2.4s)

213

The pier is great.

10:42.73 – 10:43.93 (1.2s)

214

You can get some ice cream, take a boat ride on the canal, or get a caricature made.

10:43.93 – 10:49.53 (5.6s)

215

Great!

10:50.01 – 10:50.63 (0.6s)

216

When does that start?

10:50.63 – 10:52.01 (1.4s)

217

They go every hour on the hour.

10:52.63 – 10:54.47 (1.8s)

218

That means there's one in ten minutes.

10:55.71 – 10:57.07 (1.4s)

219

Come on, let's go!

10:57.07 – 10:58.85 (1.8s)

220

Thank you for your help.

11:00.09 – 11:00.85 (0.8s)

221

You're welcome.

11:01.87 – 11:02.51 (0.6s)

222

We're lost.

11:06.73 – 11:07.81 (1.1s)

223

We are lost.

11:12.13 – 11:13.35 (1.2s)

224

No, we're not.

11:14.79 – 11:15.63 (0.8s)

225

I know exactly where we are.

11:15.63 – 11:17.21 (1.6s)

226

You said that an hour ago.

11:18.35 – 11:20.23 (1.9s)

227

I'm asking for directions.

11:20.23 – 11:21.61 (1.4s)

228

We don't need to.

11:23.03 – 11:23.93 (0.9s)

229

Look, my phone says it's just down this road.

11:23.93 – 11:26.51 (2.6s)

230

A little further and then on the left.

11:26.51 – 11:28.37 (1.9s)

231

Fine.

11:29.31 – 11:29.77 (0.5s)

232

Let's go.

11:29.77 – 11:30.51 (0.7s)

233

Great.

11:34.99 – 11:35.57 (0.6s)

234

See?

11:35.57 – 11:35.99 (0.4s)

235

Just another block, and then...

11:35.99 – 11:37.91 (1.9s)

236

What?

11:39.25 – 11:39.71 (0.5s)

237

Shoot.

11:40.69 – 11:41.35 (0.7s)

238

I had it upside down.

11:41.35 – 11:42.77 (1.4s)

239

It's that way and on the right.

11:43.75 – 11:45.55 (1.8s)

240

Ugh.

11:46.31 – 11:46.63 (0.3s)

241

Ryan, can we just ask someone?

11:46.63 – 11:49.31 (2.7s)

242

No, no.

11:50.29 – 11:50.81 (0.5s)

243

This way is right.

11:50.81 – 11:51.91 (1.1s)

244

I'm sure of it.

11:51.91 – 11:52.85 (0.9s)

245

Uh-huh.

11:53.99 – 11:54.33 (0.3s)

246

Look, look.

11:57.51 – 11:58.33 (0.8s)

247

There it is.

11:58.33 – 11:59.09 (0.8s)

248

That can't be it.

12:00.41 – 12:01.35 (0.9s)

249

It's just a run-down building called City Place.

12:01.35 – 12:04.39 (3.0s)

250

Oh, no.

12:05.57 – 12:05.93 (0.4s)

251

What?

12:06.91 – 12:07.11 (0.2s)

252

I typed it wrong.

12:07.77 – 12:08.75 (1.0s)

253

I wrote place instead of palace.

12:09.51 – 12:11.53 (2.0s)

254

That's it.

12:12.65 – 12:13.15 (0.5s)

255

I'm asking for directions.

12:13.15 – 12:14.71 (1.6s)

256

Yeah, alright.

12:16.49 – 12:17.53 (1.0s)

257

Excuse me.

12:18.43 – 12:19.01 (0.6s)

258

Hi.

12:19.01 – 12:20.25 (1.2s)

259

Um, do you speak English?

12:20.25 – 12:21.51 (1.3s)

260

Yes, I do.

12:22.61 – 12:23.53 (0.9s)

261

Great.

12:24.63 – 12:25.01 (0.4s)

262

Can you tell us where the palace is?

12:25.01 – 12:27.51 (2.5s)

263

Of course.

12:28.65 – 12:29.23 (0.6s)

264

Go along the street until you reach the traffic lights.

12:30.31 – 12:33.23 (2.9s)

265

Then, turn right.

12:33.87 – 12:35.11 (1.2s)

266

Go straight for one block, and then you'll see a park.

12:36.05 – 12:39.21 (3.2s)

267

The palace is next to the park.

12:39.63 – 12:41.45 (1.8s)

268

Thank you.

12:44.09 – 12:44.95 (0.9s)

269

You're welcome.

12:45.51 – 12:46.07 (0.6s)

270

I knew it was that way.

12:47.41 – 12:48.69 (1.3s)

271

Ha ha.

12:50.09 – 12:51.03 (0.9s)

272

Yeah, sure you did.

12:51.03 – 12:52.73 (1.7s)

273

Buying souvenirs.

12:55.67 – 12:56.95 (1.3s)

274

Hey, check out this pottery.

13:01.79 – 13:03.21 (1.4s)

275

It's beautiful.

13:04.25 – 13:05.11 (0.9s)

276

Do you think it's handmade?

13:05.11 – 13:06.79 (1.7s)

277

Yeah, the science says it is.

13:08.09 – 13:09.91 (1.8s)

278

Wouldn't it go great in our kitchen?

13:10.23 – 13:11.41 (1.2s)

279

Good idea.

13:12.63 – 13:13.13 (0.5s)

280

Let's get some.

13:13.13 – 13:14.59 (1.5s)

281

Okay, what do you think?

13:15.29 – 13:16.77 (1.5s)

282

Two small bowls?

13:16.77 – 13:17.91 (1.1s)

283

How about four?

13:19.49 – 13:20.47 (1.0s)

284

And the little plates, too.

13:20.47 – 13:22.31 (1.8s)

285

Sounds good.

13:23.71 – 13:24.21 (0.5s)

286

Oh, look at these painted tapestries.

13:25.79 – 13:28.37 (2.6s)

287

Do you like the blue and green one or the orange and red one better?

13:27.97 – 13:32.95 (5.0s)

288

What about this one?

13:33.81 – 13:34.57 (0.8s)

289

The color palette of this tapestry is exceptionally vibrant and colorful.

13:35.43 – 13:39.23 (3.8s)

290

Yes, it's gorgeous.

13:40.07 – 13:41.55 (1.5s)

291

I absolutely love it.

13:41.55 – 13:43.25 (1.7s)

292

Okay, we have to get that too then.

13:44.95 – 13:46.99 (2.0s)

293

Deal.

13:47.47 – 13:47.97 (0.5s)

294

Look at this mini statue.

13:49.25 – 13:50.45 (1.2s)

295

Oh my, I love that.

13:51.45 – 13:54.21 (2.8s)

296

Let's get that too.

13:54.21 – 13:55.27 (1.1s)

297

It would fit perfectly in the living room, don't you think?

13:56.71 – 13:59.47 (2.8s)

298

Okay, but babe, aren't we supposed to be buying souvenirs to take home for our friends and family?

14:00.56 – 14:05.82 (5.3s)

299

Yeah, we can still get some small things for them.

14:07.04 – 14:09.80 (2.8s)

300

What's wrong with doing a little shopping for ourselves while we're at it?

14:09.80 – 14:13.96 (4.2s)

301

Well, I'm thinking how it would look if we just brought them all back a magnet or keychain, and then they come over and see our place, completely redecorated with souvenirs we bought for ourselves on our trip.

14:13.96 – 14:26.38 (12.4s)

302

Hmm, true.

14:26.38 – 14:29.26 (2.9s)

303

What if we get them each a magnet and keychain?

14:29.26 – 14:32.14 (2.9s)

304

Haha, deal.

14:32.14 – 14:34.32 (2.2s)

305

At the restaurant.

14:34.32 – 14:39.66 (5.3s)

306

Hello and welcome to our restaurant.

14:39.66 – 14:46.02 (6.4s)

307

Hello.

14:46.02 – 14:47.38 (1.4s)

308

Thank you.

14:47.56 – 14:48.12 (0.6s)

309

Here's the menu.

14:48.12 – 14:50.50 (2.4s)

310

Can I start you off with anything to drink?

14:50.50 – 14:52.72 (2.2s)

311

Yes, good idea.

14:54.16 – 14:55.36 (1.2s)

312

What have you got?

14:55.36 – 14:56.06 (0.7s)

313

Margarita?

14:57.36 – 14:58.20 (0.8s)

314

Spritz?

14:58.20 – 14:59.20 (1.0s)

315

Pimm's cup?

14:59.20 – 15:00.20 (1.0s)

316

That is a cocktail with lemonade, mint, orange, strawberries.

15:00.64 – 15:05.04 (4.4s)

317

I'll have a Pimm's cup.

15:05.84 – 15:06.64 (0.8s)

318

Yes, I'll have a Pimm's cup too.

15:07.64 – 15:09.78 (2.1s)

319

Sure.

15:10.66 – 15:11.00 (0.3s)

320

I'll be right back with your drinks.

15:11.00 – 15:12.82 (1.8s)

321

Are you ready to order?

15:17.96 – 15:18.94 (1.0s)

322

Yes.

15:20.02 – 15:20.38 (0.4s)

323

Could you tell me what the soup of the day is?

15:20.38 – 15:22.82 (2.4s)

324

Certainly.

15:23.94 – 15:24.66 (0.7s)

325

Today we're serving French onion soup topped with croutons and cheese.

15:24.66 – 15:29.14 (4.5s)

326

Sounds good to me.

15:30.24 – 15:31.38 (1.1s)

327

I'll have that.

15:31.38 – 15:32.44 (1.1s)

328

What do you fancy, Ryan?

15:32.44 – 15:33.92 (1.5s)

329

Can you tell me what matzo ball soup is?

15:35.70 – 15:37.92 (2.2s)

330

It's a homemade chicken soup with dumplings.

15:37.92 – 15:41.08 (3.2s)

331

Sounds delicious.

15:42.64 – 15:43.58 (0.9s)

332

I'll have that.

15:43.58 – 15:44.46 (0.9s)

333

Thank you.

15:44.46 – 15:45.06 (0.6s)

334

Of course.

15:46.14 – 15:46.68 (0.5s)

335

And for the main course?

15:46.68 – 15:48.24 (1.6s)

336

What kind of sauce is on the chick pine?

15:49.90 – 15:51.92 (2.0s)

337

It's a cream sauce.

15:53.42 – 15:54.68 (1.3s)

338

Cream sauce?

15:55.64 – 15:56.54 (0.9s)

339

That means too much fat, I'm afraid.

15:56.54 – 15:58.98 (2.4s)

340

How about the chicken light?

16:00.20 – 16:01.54 (1.3s)

341

Can you tell me how it's prepared?

16:01.54 – 16:03.08 (1.5s)

342

Skinless chicken breasts are boiled and marinated in olive oil, rosemary, garlic, and lemon.

16:05.10 – 16:11.26 (6.2s)

343

That sounds perfect.

16:12.32 – 16:13.56 (1.2s)

344

I'll have that with fries and a tomato salad.

16:13.56 – 16:16.92 (3.4s)

345

Of course, madam.

16:18.06 – 16:19.38 (1.3s)

346

And for you, sir?

16:19.38 – 16:20.22 (0.8s)

347

I'll have the lobster risotto.

16:21.84 – 16:23.76 (1.9s)

348

Oh, hold on.

16:24.92 – 16:25.90 (1.0s)

349

Is there garlic in that?

16:25.90 – 16:27.38 (1.5s)

350

Yes, it is fried with garlic, butter, and sage.

16:28.52 – 16:31.68 (3.2s)

351

No garlic for me, thanks.

16:32.86 – 16:34.52 (1.7s)

352

I'll make a note for the chef.

16:35.82 – 16:37.16 (1.3s)

353

Checking out.

16:40.40 – 16:41.08 (0.7s)

354

Good morning.

16:45.24 – 16:45.74 (0.5s)

355

Are you ready to check out?

16:45.74 – 16:47.78 (2.0s)

356

Yes, we are.

16:49.46 – 16:50.70 (1.2s)

357

What room were you in?

16:51.54 – 16:52.84 (1.3s)

358

We're checking out of room 312.

16:53.62 – 16:55.54 (1.9s)

359

How was everything?

16:56.58 – 16:57.58 (1.0s)

360

The room was great.

16:58.98 – 17:00.28 (1.3s)

361

The beds were really comfortable and we weren't expecting our own fridge.

17:00.90 – 17:04.78 (3.9s)

362

I'm glad you liked it.

17:06.22 – 17:07.30 (1.1s)

363

Here is your bill.

17:08.08 – 17:09.20 (1.1s)

364

For 10 nights you have been charged for $2,000.

17:10.36 – 17:13.26 (2.9s)

365

And the other cost is for laundry and room service you made during this time.

17:14.32 – 17:18.74 (4.4s)

366

In total, your bill is $2,250.

17:20.30 – 17:22.66 (2.4s)

367

Could you tell me what this charge is here for $45?

17:25.26 – 17:27.76 (2.5s)

368

Let me check our records.

17:29.26 – 17:30.38 (1.1s)

369

This amount here is for the drinks you had from the minibar in your room.

17:31.54 – 17:35.04 (3.5s)

370

Yes, yes.

17:36.32 – 17:37.04 (0.7s)

371

But we definitely didn't have any orange juice in the restaurant on the 25th.

17:37.74 – 17:41.02 (3.3s)

372

ordered some fresh juice and then changed our minds i'll just check yes there seems to have been a mistake there i do apologize about that mr turner that's okay and what's this 53 for that's the local government tax which we have to charge it's explaining the hotel information back in your room.

17:42.80 – 18:08.32 (25.5s)

373

Do you have any other questions?

18:08.32 – 18:09.68 (1.4s)

374

No, we don't.

18:09.68 – 18:12.36 (2.7s)

375

Now I just need to ask you for your room keys.

18:12.36 – 18:16.42 (4.1s)

376

Here you go.

18:16.42 – 18:17.44 (1.0s)

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.

Come praticare efficacemente su ShadowingEnglish

Scegli il tuo video: Scegli un video di YouTube con un discorso chiaro e naturale in inglese. TED Talks, BBC News, scene di film, podcast o risposte campione IELTS funzionano benissimo. Incolla l'URL nella barra di ricerca. Inizia con video più brevi (meno di 5 minuti) e contenuti che trovi realmente interessanti — la motivazione è importante.
Ascolta prima, comprendi il contesto: Al primo ascolto, mantieni la velocità a 1x e ascolta solo. Non cercare ancora di ripetere. Concentrati sulla comprensione del significato, sull'acquisizione di nuovo vocabolario e sull'osservazione di come il parlante enfatizza le parole, collega i suoni e fa le pause.
Imposta la modalità Shadowing:
- Modalità Attesa: Scegli +3s o +5s — dopo che ogni frase è stata riprodotta, il video si mette automaticamente in pausa, così hai tempo per ripetere ad alta voce. Scegli Manuale se vuoi avere il pieno controllo e premi Avanti tu stesso dopo ogni ripetizione.
- Sincronizzazione Sub: I sottotitoli di YouTube a volte appaiono leggermente in anticipo o in ritardo rispetto all'audio. Usa ±100ms per allinearli perfettamente e poter seguire accuratamente.
Ombreggia ad alta voce (la pratica centrale): Qui è dove si svolge il vero lavoro. Non appena viene riprodotta una frase — o durante la pausa — ripetila ad alta voce, in modo chiaro e sicuro. Non limitarti a pronunciare le parole: rispecchia il ritmo, l'accento, il tono e il discorso connesso del parlante. Mira a sembrare un'ombra del parlante, non solo una recitazione parola per parola. Usa la funzione Ripeti per allenare la stessa frase più volte fino a quando non ti sembra naturale.
Aumenta la sfida: Una volta che un passaggio si sente confortevole, spingi i tuoi limiti. Aumenta la velocità a <code>1.25x</code> o persino <code>1.5x</code> per allenare riflessi linguistici ad alta velocità. Oppure imposta la Modalità Attesa su <code>Off</code> per uno shadowing continuo — la modalità più avanzata e gratificante. Una pratica costante giornaliera di 15–30 minuti produrrà risultati evidenti in poche settimane.
