1
One surprising thing about a good English accent, copying gets you there faster than studying.
2
And shadowing is how you do that.
3
You hear a native speaker and you copy everything.
4
The sounds, the rhythm and the mouth movements.
5
Today, I will show you how to shadow common but difficult English words in three different situations.
6
Starting with this one.
7
Making matcha is our morning ritual, and we're going to learn some English words while we do it.

10
I'll narrate as we go.
11
And then we'll rewind.
12
And you will practice your shadowing.
13
Now let's go to the kitchen and see what Chang is up to.
14
Hello there.
15
What are you up to?
16
Chang is sieving the matcha powder with the sieve.
17

The temperature has to be just right.

Chang, what's next?
20
Time to whisk.
21
Now she's whisking the matcha.
22
Meanwhile, I'm putting these circular ice cubes into the glasses and pouring in the oat milk.
23
Chang has just finished whisking.

The matcha is silky and glossy.

Silky is like smooth and glossy is like shiny.

27
Look at that colour.

Now, let's shadow some tricky words.

36
Three pronunciation notes.
37
First, pay attention to the word sieve.
38
It's spelled like believe but it's a short ih ih sound.
39
It rhymes with give and live.
40
Give me a sieve and I'll live forever.
41
Secondly, ritual.
42
It's a ch sound.
43
The same ch as in nature, picture and furniture.
44
Thirdly, temperature.
45
The stress is on the first syllable, temp, temperature.
46
It's the same pattern as the word literature, literature.
47
Got it?

Good.
49
Now, speaking of temperature...

51
And on the fridge we have some very special souvenirs.

55
We went to Korea for my 30th birthday.
56
We spent a week in Seoul where we ate the best croissants in our lives.

76
And we bought some fridge magnets.
77
three words to pay attention to here.
78
The first one, croissant.
79
It looks like croissant, but we say croissant, croissant.
80
We borrowed that word from the French.
81
Secondly, cultural, cultural.
82
And just like ritual and temperature from earlier, that T U sound is a ch.
83
Cultural, temperature, ritual.
84
Ch.
85
Can you hear it?
86
Good.
87
And the final word is souvenir.
88
The stress is on the final syllable.
89
Souvenir.
90
Souvenir.
91
It's the same pattern as the word engineer.
92
Engineer.
93
Souvenir.
94
Engineer.
95
And souvenir literally means memory in French.
96
So I hope that sticks in your memory.
97
I want you to pause this video now
98
and tell me in the comments what sounds that you find difficult in the English language.
99
If you comment below and let me know, then I can make a shadowing video on these sounds to help you become a pro at pro-annunciation.
100
Let me know.
101
Now, let's do some shadowing online.
102
There's a new shadowing tool on Sprout I would love to show you guys.
103
Let's get Chang to demonstrate.
104
Ta-da!
105
Let's do some shadowing.
106
What topic should I choose?
107
I'm going to choose AI and technology.
108
Start shadowing.
109
AI is a big part of our lives now.
110
AI is a big part of our lives now.
111
It's in our phones and computers.
112
It's in our phones and computers.
113
Things like smart assistants use AI.
114
I need to slow it down.
115
Things like smart assistants use AI.
116
Things like smart assistants use AI.
117
I want to translate this.
118
Let you Vietnamese.
119
New gadgets come out all the time.
120
Now, back to Jay.
121
If you're curious about this shadowing tool, I will leave a link in the description for anyone who wants to try.
122
This is a dictionary and normally dictionaries are boring.
123
But today I want to make this dictionary fun.
124
I want to play a creative English speaking game to improve our English speaking.
125
And there's a game that we invented called Memory Spark.
126
How do you play?
127
Open a random page and choose a random word.
128
Trampoline.
129
So what memory or story does trampoline spark for me?
130
Well, I remember when I was five years old and we were staying at my parents friend's country house.
131
I remember this big blue trampoline in their garden and I loved that trampoline.
132
When we arrived I sprinted to the back door into the garden
133
and leapt in the air but I didn't see the glass.
134
I smashed my nose on the glass and it started bleeding.
135
My excitement turned to tears but all was okay
136
when my mum comforted me with a bag of frozen peas on my nose.
137
By linking the new vocabulary to a memory or a story from your past,
138
you are connecting it to an emotion, which means it's easier for you to remember that new word.
139
It's also a way for you to practice your English speaking in a spontaneous way, which is how all conversation happens.
140
Now, let's shadow my pornos story.
141
I remember when I was five years old.
142
I was staying at my parents' friends' country house.
143
And they had a big blue trampoline outside.
144
I was so excited to bounce that I sprinted towards the garden,
145
but I didn't see the glass doors.
146
So, I leapt in the air and I smashed into the glass.
147
My nose started bleeding And my excitement turned to tears.
148
But everything felt better when my mum put a bag of frozen peas on my nose.
149
My poor nose.
150
Pay attention to these three words.
151
First, trampoline.
152
Trampoline.
153
Again, the stress is on the final syllable, the last sound.
154
Trampoline.
155
It's the same pattern as magazine.
156
I read a magazine on the trampoline.
157
Good.
158
Second, lept.
159
Lept is the past participle of leap in British English,
160
and it's the same pattern as sleep and slept or dream and dreamt.
161
The third word, smashed.
162
Tt, smashed.
163
a t-t sound at the end, and that follows the same pattern as words like wished,
164
washed, walked, and talked.
165
What's that I can smell?
166
What's that I can hear?
167
Huh, are you improving at English?
168
I think you might be.
169
In this video, we shadowed vocabulary from three different situations.
170
First, through actions, we made matcha.
171
Second, through a story, where I talked about my travels in Korea.
172
And lastly, through a creative speaking game where we learned to tie words to memories and emotions to remember them more easily.
173
And now I have a question for you.
174
Can you tell me in the comments what sounds are difficult for you in English?
175
What words do you find difficult to pronounce?
176
If you let me know, then I'll make a video to help you.
177
so you can become a pro at pronunciation.
178
Thank you, have a great day, and peace.

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.
