1
So, Abidemi, let's talk about languages.
2
Sure.
3
So, you are from Nigeria, and Nigeria has many languages, correct?
4
That's true, yes.
5
How many languages can you speak?
6
I would say that I can speak one language very well.
7
Me too.
8
And that would be English.
9
but I speak another I speak other languages fairly well Yoruba which is a Nigerian language
10
French and a little bit of Japanese as well now you are Canadian also
11
and in Canada students study French correct that's true yes do you speak French often in Canada While I was living there,
12
I spoke it a lot more, yes. Do you like French?
13
I love French.
14
I love learning languages.
15
French, I think, is very hard for some people,
16
myself included, because the pronunciation of some words is very different than the pronunciation of American English.
17
So I think it's funny that there are some words in French that look exactly the same as words in English,
18
but we pronounce them completely differently.
19
For example, I will say the word in English and you say the same word in French, okay?
20
I will try.
21
For example, impossible.
22
Impossible.
23
Right.
24
So that is so interesting.
25
Again, impossible.
26
Impossible.
27
And they're spelled the same, correct?
28
That's true.
29
Yeah.
30
How about reservation?
31
Reservation.
32
That's so cool.
33
I have never thought of it like that before, Todd.
34
But you're right.
35
They look the same, but the pronunciations are different.
36
I think it's a trick because we see the word and we know how to say it one way,
37
but we have to say it a different way.
38
That's yeah we just can't do that well that's true yeah
39
so uh you can speak uruba yoruba how do you say how are you in yoruba
40
oh that's so cool again baori baori baori oh wow that's so cool thank you yeah have you ever taught that language?
41
No, never.
42
I don't think too many people want to learn it outside of Nigeria.
43
I think in the future, more people will want to learn unique languages.
44
I hope you're right.
45
Yeah, maybe.
46
Maybe.
47
What language do you want to learn in the future?
48
I have many that if I had more time, I would like to learn.
49
I'm interested in Japanese, of course I live in Japan now
50
so I would like to speak it better I would also like to learn Mandarin Russian how was
51
that another Nigerian language Spanish and maybe a couple of others yeah there's so many languages I want to learn.
52
I want to learn Spanish too.
53
I can speak some Thai and Japanese because I lived as a teacher in both countries.
54
But I want to learn a language that has the same alphabet.
55
So I can read Thai but not very well.
56
and I can read Japanese, but not very well.
57
But I want to learn a language where it's easy to read and see what the word is.
58
You know, because in Thai, you can't do that.
59
In Japanese, you can't do that.
60
I know what you mean.
61
It would make it easier to learn the language.
62
But in Russian, you can't do that.
63
That's true.
64
Right?
65
It's completely different.
66
That's true.
67
But they have alphabets that are the same.
68
So you just have to decode them.
69
A little bit, yeah.
70
We have the phrase, it's all Greek to me.
71
Which means you have no idea.
72
Anyway, thanks a lot, Abidemi.
73
Thank you, Todd.

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。
