1
Let's go over our emotional responses one last time.
2
Okay.
3
Professor Tupperman is dead, and that makes us...
4
Sad.
5
The fact that there are so many people here tonight doesn't make us cranky and claustrophobic.
6
It makes us...
7
Glad.
8
Giving Mrs. Davis the box set of roots was...
9
Bad.
10
Yeah, however...
11
No. Yeah, fine, bad.
12
Unbelievable.
13
You have some nerve showing up here just to schmooze with the tenure committee.
14
You're here.
15
Excuse me.
16
I'm here to pay my respects to Professor Tupperware, or whatever his name is.
17
So am I.
18
His passing makes me feel bad.
19
Well, well, well, Sheldon, fancy meeting you here.
20
I guess the train store in Glendale wasn't having a cotillion after all.
21
And you, you said you weren't coming here either.
22
I would take accident.
23
You don't know what I said.
24
I'd like to know why Penny's here.
25
I'm here to support my man, just like you.
26
What are you going to do?
27
Take people's drink orders and get them wrong? Do it.
28
No!
29
What, does she do it yet?
30
She plans on flirting with members of the tenure committee to further Leonard's cause.
31
Well, that's a fine how do you do.
32
Don't just stand there, take your breaths out.
33
Ooh, meerkat fight.
34
You're all wasting your time.
35
Sheldon is the most qualified for the job, and no amount of gravity-defying bosom's gonna change that.
36
Seriously, is that tape?
37
Like, how are they staying up like that?
38
Way to hit him with both barrels.
39
You two should be ashamed of yourselves, using women to advance your cause with sexuality, and whatever Amy plans on doing?
40
Are you implying that my girlfriend has no sexuality to exploit?
41
Yes.
42
Okay, because that was not clear.
43
Sheldon!
44
What?
45
That was ambiguous.
46
Well, now it's big-ious.
47
What are you gonna do about it?
48
Um...
49
You could talk some smack about his mother.
50
Well, yes, of course.
51
He wouldn't like that at all.
52
Last night, I was feeling in need of sexual release when I happened to come across your mother.
53
OK, OK, guys, what are we doing here?
54
I don't know what you're doing, but I was about to insinuate that I had coitus with Raj's mother for a dollar.
55
Well, you do what you want, but I don't want to lose my friends over tenure.
56
Friends are forever.
57
So is tenure.
58
What?
59
I'm just going to go home and let my work speak for itself.
60
You're right.
61
This is beneath me.
62
Like your mother was last night.
63
How about it, children?
64
What do you think I should do?
65
Well, you'll always be an academic success, but I seriously question whether you'll make any more friends.
66
Well, I don't want any more, but let's go. Are you kidding?
67
I would love to babysit for you.
68
I could not ask you to do that.
69
Nonsense.
70
Children love me.
71
Something about me just makes them laugh and laugh.
72
No. We cannot lose to that, jerk.
73
Yeah.
74
Screw it.
75
I'm going in.
76
Hold on.
77
At least screw it, I'm going in is what I said to your mother last night.
78
Don't worry, I didn't really say that.
79
I find the concept of coitus ridiculous and off-putting.
80
Should have taken my breasts out while I had the chance.
81
Mrs. Davis?
82
Mrs. Davis?
83
Mrs. Davis?
84
Mrs. Davis, I know you're in there.
85
I saw your car in the parking lot.
86
What?
87
I just found out that you recommended myself, Dr. Hofstadter, and Dr. Kuttharpali to be on the shortlist for tenure.
88
Well, despite your quirks, the three of you are very accomplished in your respective fields.
89
I don't know what you mean by quirks, but I do want to express my gratitude.
90
You didn't bring another gift, did you?
91
No, no. No, I learned my lesson.
92
I understand that was inappropriate.
93
Good.
94
Anyway, thank you.
95
You're welcome.

Guida Passo-passo per il Shadowing

Per affrontare le difficoltà di questo video e migliorare la pronuncia inglese, ti proponiamo una guida di shadow speak efficace:

  1. Ascolta il dialogo: Prima di tutto, ascolta il video senza sottotitoli per cogliere l'intonazione e l'emozione dei personaggi.
  2. Segui il testo: Guarda il video con i sottotitoli in inglese, seguendo le parole pronunciate dai personaggi. Questa fase aiuta a riconoscere le parole in contesti diversi.
  3. Ripeti ad alta voce: Utilizza la tecnica del shadowing in inglese. Ripeti ciò che senti, cercando di imitare la pronuncia e l'intonazione dei personaggi.
  4. Analizza le frasi: Focalizzati sulle frasi chiave fornite sopra. Prova a usarle in conversazioni quotidiane.
  5. Pratica regolarmente: Dedica del tempo ogni giorno a praticare l'inglese attraverso video e dialoghi. Questo ti aiuterà a interiorizzare la lingua e a migliorare la tua fluidità.

Attraverso questa tecnica, potrai padroneggiare l'inglese in modo interattivo e coinvolgente, rendendo l'apprendimento più efficace e divertente.

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.
