Oh no, is he lost?
2
Excuse me.
3
Hello.
4
Can I offer you a lift home?
5
Why?
6
You know where I live?
7
I believe I do, yes.
8
Good.
9
Then that makes one of us.
10
Oh, your house is lovely.
11
I've lived here 47 years.
12
Back then there were only six houses on this block.
13
Every year they tear another one down.
14
Not that I blame them.
15
They weren't that great to begin with.
16
But that's how I got confused.
17
I didn't recognize one house.
18
That would be confusing.
19
What part of England are you from?
20
Oh, Surrey.
21
Cary Grant was from Surrey.
22
That's right, he was.
23
How did you know that?
24
Oh, he told me once.
25
Well, I thank you very much, young lady.
26
Let me help you with that.
27
I...
28
I.. some...
29
Thank you.
30
There you go.
31
Well, this was some meet-cute.
32
Sorry?
33
It's how two characters meet in a movie.
34
Say, a man and a woman both need something to sleep in.
35
Uh-huh.
36
And they both go to the same men's pajamas department.
37
Right.
38
And the man says to the salesman, I just need bottoms.
39
The woman says, I just need a top.
40
They look at each other,
41
And that's the main cue.
42
Oh, I see.
43
Of course, this isn't quite that cute, but...
44
So, you're in the film business?
45
Was.
46
Yes, I was.
47
I was a writer.
48
I could be here till tomorrow.
49
Oh, here.
50
Let me.
51
Thank you.
52
Oh, my God.
53
Well, goodbye then.
54
I enjoyed our meet-cute.
55
Well, thank you.
56
Thank you for rescuing me.
57
Oh, it's a pleasure.
58
Absolutely.
59
You know, I hope you don't find this strange.
60
But I've just arrived here,
61
and, um, I don't really know anyone.
62
And I was thinking of going up for dinner tonight.
63
Well, if you're not busy,
64
would you like to join me?
65
Busy?
66
Honey, I haven't been busy since 1978.
67
I was his office boy.
68
I learned everything working at the office.
69
Best job I ever had.
70
Wait, wait, wait.
71
That was your first job in Hollywood.
72
Louis B.
73
Mayer's office boy?
74
Actually, my first job was as a Western Union messenger.
75
That's how I met Mayer.
76
I delivered a telegram to his office at MGM.
77
When I walked in, all the girls in the office were in a tizzy.
78
Their office boy didn't show up.
79
I volunteered for the job.
80
The next day I was on the payroll.
81
I was 17 years old.
82
Wow.
83
So was Hollywood really as great back then as I imagine?
84
It was better.
85
You know what I've been asking myself all night?
86
What?
87
Why I'm bothering you with all these questions?
88
I'm wondering why a beautiful girl like you would go to a stranger's house for her Christmas vacation
89
and on top of that spend Saturday night with an old cocker like me.
90
Well, I just wanted to get away from the people I see all the time.
91
I see all the time.
92
Well, not all the people.
93
One person.
94
I wanted to get away from one guy.
95
An ex-boyfriend who just got engaged and forgot to tell me.
96
Sorry.
97
So he's a schmuck?
98
As a matter of fact,
99
he is a huge schmuck.
100
How did you know?
101
He let you go.
102
This is not a hard one to figure out.
103
Iris, in the movies we have leading ladies and we have the best friend.
104
You, I can tell, are a leading lady.
105
But for some reason you're behaving like the best friend.
106
You're so right.
107
You're supposed to be the leading lady of your own life, for God's sake.
108
Arthur, I've been going to a therapist for three years.
109
And she's never explained anything to me that well.
110
That was brilliant.
111
Brutal, but brilliant.
112
Thank you.

なぜこのビデオで話す練習をするのか？
このビデオは、映画「ホリデイ」の一シーンを抜粋したもので、日常会話を通じて英語を学ぶための優れた素材です。特に、感情や親しみを表現する場面は、英語スピーキング練習に最適です。登場人物同士の微妙なやり取りや、質問を通じた会話は、実生活のシチュエーションを模倣することで、shadowspeakやshadowingの練習に役立ちます。
文法と表現の文脈
このビデオで使われている重要な構文を分析してみましょう。
- 「Can I offer you a lift home?」 - 提案をする際の丁寧な表現。質問形式にすることで、相手に配慮している印象を与えます。
- 「I believe I do, yes.」 - 確信を示す際のフレーズ。自分の意見を強調しつつ、柔らかい表現を使っています。
- 「This was some meet-cute.」 - 映画用語を使用することで、文脈をより豊かにします。日常英会話にも映画関連の表現を取り入れることで、会話が楽しくなります。
- 「Let me help you with that.」 - 助けを申し出る際のフレーズ。相手を思いやる気持ちが表れています。
これらの表現は、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立ち、日常会話に自然に反映させることができます。
一般的な発音の罠
このビデオには、発音の面で特に注意が必要な単語やアクセントがあります。
- 「I believed I do」 - 「do」の発音に注意が必要です。ネイティブの発音に近づけるために、口の形をしっかり意識してください。
- 「meet-cute」 - この言葉は造語で、発音が難しいため、反復練習が効果的です。
- 「lift」 - 「リフト」とは異なり、イギリス英語では「持ち上げる」という意味の動詞として使われます。この場面での使用法を理解することが重要です。
発音の改善には、shadow speakやshadowing siteを活用することで、実際の会話に近い形で練習できます。音声を聞きながら、リアルタイムで声に出してみることで、より自然な発音を習得しましょう。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
