1
The End
2
and the rest of this never happened right now Marshall
3
and Lily are upstairs trying to get Marvin to go back to sleep Robin
4
and I are trying to decide on a caterer
5
and you've been sitting here all night staring at a single ticket to robots versus wrestlers
6
because the rest of us couldn't come out look around You're all alone.
7
Kids, it's been almost 20 years since that cold April night in 2013.
8
And I can safely tell you, if I could go back in time and relive that night,
9
there's no way in hell I'd go to robots versus wrestlers.
10
No, I'd go home.
11
I'd go to my old apartment, see all my old furniture, my old stuff.
12
I'd see my old drafting table where I sketched out my first building.
13
I'd sit on that old couch and smell the Indian food cooking three stories below.
14
I'd go to Lillian Marshall's place, be back in that old living room where so many things happened.
15
I'd see the baby.
16
I don't know if you can picture me holding your six foot seven cousin Marvin over my head, but back then I could.
17
I'd go have a drink with Barney and Robin, watch them fight about their caterer, or whatever it was they were fighting about that night.
18
But none of those things is the thing I do first.
19
You know the thing I do first.
20
Hi.
21
I'm Ted Mosby.
22
And exactly 45 days from now, you and I are going to meet.
23
and we're gonna fall in love and we're gonna get married
24
and we're gonna have two kids and we're gonna love them and each other so much
25
all that is 45 days away but I'm here now I guess because
26
I want those extra 45 days.
27
With you, I want each one of them.
28
If I can't have them, I'll take the 45 seconds before your boyfriend shows up and punches me in the face. Because...
29
I love you.
30
I'm always going to love you.
31
Until the end of my days. And beyond.
32
We'll see. Can I help you?
33
Oh, hey, it's, uh, Louis, right?
34
It's okay.
35
It's fine.
36
Um, I'm in love with your girlfriend, and, uh, we're gonna get married.
37
What?
38
Yeah.
39
The Robin Step 1.
40
Admit to yourself that you still have feelings for this girl.
41
I am hopelessly, irretrievably in love with her.
42
More than she knows.
43
Step 2.
44
Choose the completely wrong moment to make a drunken move after hanging out at a strip club.
45
And get shot down on purpose.
46
Step 3.
47
agree that you two don't work, locking the door on any future you can have together.
48
I'm done trying to get you.
49
I can't do it anymore.
50
Which will drive Robin nuts.
51
Step 4.
52
Robin goes nuts.
53
Step 5.
54
Find the person who annoys Robin most in the world.
55
Nobody asked for your help but Grace!
56
And ask for her help.
57
Hi, Barney.
58
What are you doing here?
59
Actually, I'm looking for you.
60
This may sound kind of weird, but I have a promise.
61
Explain everything to Patrice, and hope she agrees to help.
62
Yay!
63
I love Robin!
64
Of course I'll help!
65
Good.
66
Step 6.
67
Check with your doctor about possible broken ribs.
68
Step 7.
69
Pretend to be dating Patrice.
70
Nobody asked you here, Patrice!
71
Actually, I did.
72
Step 8.
73
Wait until Robin inevitably breaks into your place to find the playbook and show it to Patrice.
74
Which you'll monitor via the hidden cameras you have in your apartment.
75
Patrice, the Robin's in the nest.
76
That means Robin broke into my apartment.
77
Were you even listening when I explained the codes?
78
Step 9.
79
After Patrice finds the playbook, have your first big fight.
80
This is going so well, thank you so much!
81
I know!
82
But what the heck are Lily and dad doing here?
83
I don't know, my friends have no boundaries.
84
How can I ever thank you?
85
Will you watch my cat next weekend?
86
No!
87
Come on, we should probably go back and die!
88
Step 10.
89
Prove your loyalty to Patrice by burning the playbook.
90
And actually burn it.
91
You don't need it anymore.
92
Step 11.
93
Because your friends have no boundaries, they'll inevitably have an intervention for Robin, which you'll monitor via the hidden cameras you have in Marshall and Lily's apartment.
94
Step 12.
95
Tell only Ted about your plan to propose to Patrice.
96
You can't tell anybody.
97
Agreed?
98
Step 13.
99
Step 13.
100
Wait and see if Ted tells Robin.
101
And if he does...
102
Barney's getting engaged.
103
It means your best bro in the world has let go of Robin and has given you his blessing.
104
Step 14.
105
Robin arrives at her favorite spot in the city and finds the secret final page of the playbook.
106
The last play you'll ever run.
107
Step 15.
108
Robin realizes she's standing underneath mistletoe.
109
Seriously, Barney?
110
Even you, even someone as certifiably insane as you, must realize that this is too far.
111
You lied to me!
112
manipulated me for weeks.
113
Do you really think I could ever kiss you after that?
114
Do you really think I could ever trust you after that?
115
This, this is proof of why we don't work, why we'll never work. So thank you.
116
You've set me free because how could I be with a man who thinks that this trick, this enormous lie could ever make me want to date him again?
117
Turn it over.
118
Robin Scherbatsky, will you marry me?
119
Yes, sir.
120
And it here I stand
121
All my desperate calls Echo off the walls Back and forth That's more than crazy.
122
I don't think there's a word for what that is.
123
Actually, there is a word for that.
124
It's love.
125
I'm in love with her, okay?
126
If you're looking for the word that means caring about someone beyond all rationality and wanting them to have everything they want, no matter how much it destroys you, it's love.
127
And when you love someone, you just, you, you don't stop.
128
Ever.
129
Even when people roll their eyes or call you crazy, even then, especially then.
130
You just, you don't give up.
131
Because if I could give up, if I could just, you know, take the whole world's advice and, and move on and find someone else, that wouldn't be love.
132
That would be, that would be some other disposable thing that is not worth fighting for.
133
But that is not what this is.
134
Let's cut the crap.
135
We're both freezing.
136
Just say it and we can go downstairs.
137
Say what?
138
Say how much you hate that Robin and Barney are getting married.
139
What?
140
No!
141
I'm happy for them.
142
I encouraged Robin to go after Barney.
143
I know, because you thought you were okay letting her go, but now that she's really gone, it hurts.
144
Kids, at that point in my life, I'd been hurt quite a few times already.
145
Today, we're gonna braid friendship bracelets.
146
There is a very simple explanation.
147
This one time I was playing tennis and...
148
Hey Schmosby, remember when you were getting your pants dumped by the lake?
149
Unbelievable! Do you love me?
150
No. But when I saw that text message and found out Robin was engaged, it was like Oh!
151
My name!
152
Unbelievable!
153
No. Times a million.
154
Toast Okay, first off to everyone at this table, I love you guys so much.
155
I can't even move to the second part.
156
Secondly, to Ted.
157
Don't say it.
158
Evelyn Morrissey.
159
Thank you for that.
160
A man with more emotional endurance than anyone I know.
161
It was a long, difficult road.
162
Thank God we finally got here.
163
We're here.
164
Here, here.
165
Aunt Lily wasn't wrong.
166
It was, at times, a long, difficult road.
167
But I'm glad it was long and difficult, because if I hadn't gone through hell to get there, the lesson might not have been as clear.
168
You see, kids, right from the moment I met your mom, I knew I have to love this woman as much as I can, for as long as I can,
169
and I can never stop loving her, not even for a second.
170
I carried that lesson with me through every stupid fight we ever had, every 5 a.m.
171
Christmas morning, every sleepy Sunday afternoon, through every speed bump, every pang of jealousy or boredom or uncertainty that came our way.
172
I carried that lesson with me, and I carried it with me when she got sick.
173
Even then, in what can only be called the worst of times, all I could do was thank God.
174
Thank every God there is or ever was or will be, and the whole universe and anyone else I could possibly thank.
175
I saw that beautiful girl on that train platform, and that I had the guts to stand up,
176
walk over to her, tap her on the shoulder.
177
Open my mouth and speak.
178
Excuse me.
179
Hi.
180
Hi!
181
I'm the best man.
182
Yeah, get in here, get in here.
183
Oh, thanks.
184
Here, let me.
185
Oh, okay.
186
Thank you.
187
Great show tonight.
188
Oh, thank you.
189
Yeah.
190
You're Cindy's ex-roommate, right?
191
Yeah.
192
And you are the professor.
193
I took one of your classes.
194
Really? Which one?
195
Econ 305.
196
Econ 305?
197
I don't teach.
198
Oh, no. Oh, yeah.
199
Yeah.
200
Excuse me, I'm gonna jump onto the tracks now.
201
No, no, no, no, don't.
202
You were great.
203
You were great.
204
Wait a second.
205
This is my umbrella.
206
I left this umbrella at Cindy's.
207
You totally stole my umbrella.
208
What?
209
No, I didn't.
210
This is my umbrella.
211
I bought this.
212
Excuse me, it even has my initials on it right here.
213
TM, Ted Mosby.
214
Yeah, look again.
215
Ted Mosby.
216
Those are my initials.
217
TM, Tracy McConnell.
218
Um, no, Tracy McConnell, it's TM, totally my umbrella.
219
Uh, you're TM, terribly mistaken.
220
Because this umbrella has always belonged, TM, to me.
221
Although, I did lose it for a few years there.
222
So I went to this dance club.
223
On St. Patrick's Day.
224
On St. Patrick's Day.
225
And you left it there.
226
And I left it there.
227
I never thought you'd see it again.
228
I never thought I'd see it again.
229
Funny how sometimes you just find things.
230
Hi.
231
Hi.
232
And that, kids, is how I met your mother.

なぜこの動画でスピーキングを練習するべきか?

この「How I Met Your Mother」のクリップは、感情豊かな会話の一例であり、スピーキング練習に最適です。登場人物たちは、愛情や失恋、過去の思い出を語りながら、非常に自然な会話を展開しています。このような実生活のシチュエーションを通じて、英語の発音を良くすることができ、同時にリアルな表現力も向上させることができます。英語スピーキング練習において、感情を込めて話すことは重要であり、この動画ではその技術を学ぶヒントが満載です。

文法と表現の文脈

この動画では、いくつかの重要な文法構造や表現が使用されています。以下にその例を示します:

  • 過去完了形 - 「20年前のことを思い出す」というように、特定の時間に起こったことを表現するために使われています。これは、タイムトラベルの感覚を与えます。
  • 直説法 - 感情をはっきりと伝えるための表現が多く、相手に自分の気持ちを通知する際に非常に効果的です。「私はあなたを愛しています」といったシンプルな表現がその一例です。
  • 条件文 - 「もし戻れるなら」といった絞られた状況を表現するため、感情と願望を強調するのに役立つ構造です。
  • 未来形 - 「私たちが出会い、愛し合う未来」を描いています。このような表現は、計画や希望を語る上で非常に有効です。

一般的な発音の落とし穴

この動画では、いくつかの発音のトラップや独特のアクセントが見られます。特に注意が必要な単語やフレーズには:

  • “love” - この単語を発音する際、多くの学習者は母音を誤って繋げることがあります。正しい発音を身に付け、感情を込めたスピーキングができるようになりましょう。
  • “wait”や“saying” - これらの単語は連結音によって滑らかに聞こえますが、実際には音の消失や変化を伴います。流暢に英語を話すには、こうした発音を意識して練習することが重要です。

英語スピーキングの練習を通じて、これらの要素を取り入れ、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立てることができます。特に、shadowspeakを用いた勉強は、正確さと流暢さを同時に向上させるのに効果的です。動画を見ながら何度も繰り返し発音することで、自然な英語を身に付けることができるでしょう。

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。
