1
A lot of people are on their phones texting with people they already know.
2
They have an established relationship.
3
Presumably they're continuing to maintain,
4
if not build those relationships by doing that.
5
And I think that going back to this eye gaze thing from earlier,
6
eyes down into a little box,
7
it's a thicker shell to break through.
8
I don't think any of us really feel comfortable interrupting somebody texting or on a call.
9
Correct.
10
I mean, I wouldn't do that.
11
You would think of it as bad manners, impolite.
12
Yeah, they're clearly in a conversation with somebody else.
13
The same way I wouldn't just walk up and interrupt.
14
Actually, yesterday was a social gathering.
15
There was like three people talking.
16
These guys all knew each other.
17
I was the stranger in the group.
18
And like you sort of learn like,
19
you have to quickly assess like, what is this conversation?
20
So I said, sorry, I don't know if I'm interrupting something critical,
21
but if so, I'm gonna stand right here.
22
No, I just said, if I'm interrupting,
23
and they're like, no, no,
24
no. Like you have to be able to know how to break into a conversation.
25
It's very hard when people are on their phones.
26
It can be um the way i think of it is
27
you're giving people an invitation i got off the train one
28
morning was this guy came up behind me i remember this
29
very distinctly uh he's a little taller than i was
30
so i'm i'm about six foot he was probably six foot
31
three looks like an orthodox monk right he's got this big
32
long beard graying beard long hair looks like the last thing
33
he would want to do is talk to another person a very stern kind of dead off to work face
34
and and i saw him come up sidle up next to me he'd already put his left earbud in
35
and he was putting his right earbud in at the same
36
time right it would have been easy for me to infer
37
that he didn't want to talk to me right
38
but of course nobody was talking to him either nobody's talking
39
and so
40
that signal was a little ambiguous what does it mean does
41
he want to talk to me it's it's not clear he could be putting his earbud in
42
because nobody's talking to him he doesn't think other people want to talk to him
43
so he's just gonna get off to work right get away
44
from all these jerks i turned to him i said hi
45
i'm nick most powerful words you have in your life hi
46
i'm whoever you are i'm nick he took out his earbud he turned to me
47
and he just like came alive like i was flipping a
48
switch on his back huge smile hi i'm thibault he's turns
49
out he's french very strong french accent we became friends over
50
the years right we walked down four blocks to my office there
51
and so sometimes these cues can be ambiguous
52
and you don't know what the cue means until you test it
53
so the way i think about reaching out to connect with
54
other people to test our fears right our anxiety our interpretations of other people knowing
55
that we can make mistakes with each other is to think of it as an invitation right
56
when i turn to gustavo yesterday brian last night my cab driver my uber driver this morning i wasn't demanding anything
57
I was offering up an opportunity and invitation to connect if they wanted to, right?
58
Didn't have to pull their earbud out didn't have brian last
59
night had a little video game uh player in front of
60
him right i thought maybe he wanted to play video games
61
no he was happy to talk right kind of went in
62
and out at a manuscript review i had to do but
63
if you start thinking of these opportunities as potential places where you might be misunderstanding somebody
64
and don't take your beliefs about another person for granted
65
but treat them as bets
66
that might be wrong well then you start to see places where maybe you've made a mistake
67
and you give people an opportunity to show you know
68
thibault would have been happy to talk to me
69
and became friends um over years just because i was willing to test
70
that initial belief i had which was mistaken
71
that he didn't want to talk to me and the problem
72
that at least we find over and over again in our social lives is all too often
73
we infer immediately a pest we have overly pessimistic expectations about how other people will respond to us
74
when we try and we just miss opportunities to connect with other people
75
that we could have across the moments of our days weeks months years of our lives
76
that would just enrich our lives in lots of ways
77
if we were willing to test those barriers
78
that were keeping us from connecting with other people to see
79
if are they made out of steel or is it a pasta noodle sometimes they're pasta noodles.
80
The data I've seen suggests that more and more people are going to church,
81
they're attending other religious gatherings.
82
You know, it seems that some just recent years?
83
Oh, yeah, it's really on the upswing.
84
And my guess is there are a number of reasons for that.
85
People want to meet people with a certain set of values.
86
Maybe they are drinking less.
87
Who knows?
88
You know, I think a component of those types of gatherings are that people generally are pretty friendly.
89
Yes.
90
It's pretty inviting.
91
Absolutely.
92
You know, I mean, people still go to festivals, too.
93
I didn't go, but Coachella was recently.
94
And people tend to be in a good mood at festivals.
95
I was at TED last week.
96
Okay, so another good example.
97
So I'm just, you know,
98
we could pepper with different examples.
99
And I think it is important to do so.
100
I didn't want to imply it was just churches.
101
But these kinds of common gatherings where people are there for their own reasons,
102
but also to interact with others, including strangers.
103
Absolutely.
104
And I think this, in my mind,
105
can be pretty well explained by the fact that people were indoors during the pandemic.
106
a lot of people were anyway,
107
and everyone's on their phones more and devices.
108
So attending venues where there's clearly an impulse towards interacting with strangers.
109
Actually, sauna gatherings are really big in major cities.
110
You know, people not just sitting in a sauna facing out like bleachers,
111
on bleachers, but in around and doing breath work.
112
And so, and on and on.
113
So it's interesting.
114
I think people really crave this.

練習のヒント
この動画のスピードやトーンに合わせて、shadowingを行う際の具体的なアドバイスを紹介します。まず、動画の内容を何度も繰り返し視聴し、話し手の言葉を真似て声に出してみてください。最初はゆっくりとしたペースで、正確な発音を重視して練習しましょう。特に、英語の発音を良くするためには、口の形や舌の位置に注意を払いながら行うことが大切です。
また、知り合いとの会話ではなく、見知らぬ人とのコミュニケーションを通じて練習することも重要です。実際の状況を想定して、友人と一緒にロールプレイをするのも効果的です。これは、YouTubeで英語学習を進める上でも役立つテクニックです。更に、IELTS スピーキング対策としても、このような偶発的な会話の練習は非常に有益です。
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。
