1
Well, Conrad does not have hope, actually.
2
He's hopeless.
3
But my hangover smoothie, it cures off.
4
Can you please just hurry up?
5
Just go back to bed, all right?
6
Just sit for your portraits.
7
I don't see Conrad complaining.
8
He'll complain when he's conscious.
9
Hey.
10
Here.
11
Come on, man, hurry your ass up, all right?
12
I can't be late for my first day of work.
13
We won't.
14
We're good.
15
Oh, man.
16
Those old country club boomers are gonna tip me so hard, man, they won't know where to hit them.
17
Oh!
18
Steven, I swear.
19
What?
20
Come on, Laurel.
21
My boys gotta get that bread.
22
Thank you.
23
Good morning.
24
Billy, where have you been?
25
Is that a bruise?
26
Um, I-I bumped into someone.
27
You bumped into someone.
28
Doesn't look that bad.
29
Uh, cereal?
30
Yeah, hit me.
31
Sure.
32
Oh my god.
33
Belly is gonna be a debutante. So.
34
Belly, are you sure you want to do this?
35
Doesn't seem very you.
36
It's not.
37
Conrad, could you please be a little more supportive?
38
Now, which one of you is gonna be Belly's escort to the ball?
39
Not me.
40
I went last year.
41
Yeah, and I swore off balls.
42
The dances, dude.
43
Wow, guys, stop fighting over me.
44
I'm not going with either of you.
45
I am going to find my own date.
46
Wikipedia says debutante balls require instruction in morals and social etiquette.
47
I'm going for a swim.
48
She could use some etiquette.
49
No offense, Beck, but I don't feel like a country club is the best place to teach Ellie about morals.
50
Laura, times have changed.
51
There's a girl debbing this season, and she's bringing her girlfriend past her escort, and the club is fine with it.
52
I'm a little progressive now.
53
Thank you.
54
Honey?
55
Hey, hon?
56
Yeah?
57
Would you change and meet me out back?
58
I want to paint your portrait first.
59
Why me?
60
Because everyone else has things to do.
61
I have things to do too, Mom.
62
I think you can spare a few hours for your mother.
63
Sure.
64
Great.
65
I'll see you outside in ten.
66
See you there.
67
Put on something nice. So, how's Nicole?
68
Mom, can we not do this?
69
Look, no, you asked me to come sit for this portrait, and I'm here, and I'm sitting, and I'm more than happy to be here,
70
but can we not make this like a bonding experience, please?
71
Well, excuse me for trying to connect with my son before he leaves for a year.
72
Belly looked really nice in her new dress.
73
If you want to spend your summer moping around, I can't stop you, but...
74
No more sleeping till 2, no more day drinking.
75
I want you doing something productive.
76
You're getting a job.
77
Sure.
78
Great.
79
Now sit still.
80
Sit up.
81
You look hot.
82
Hey, hey, hey, stop flirting with my sister.
83
Shut up, Steven.
84
No, you shut up.
85
You look good, though.
86
You driving with or you being just there?
87
I'm not going to the book party.
88
I'm going to the drive-in.
89
You too.
90
Hey, dude, dude, focus.
91
Come on.
92
Okay, bye.
93
I'm gonna catch up.
94
Don't drop anything.
95
What are you doing?
96
Right?
97
You see that boy over there?
98
Oh, yeah, the one who's been pounding Chardonnay all night.
99
Conrad.
100
Come over here.
101
Conrad, this is Cleveland.
102
He's writing a book about sailing, but also knows nothing about sailing.
103
Conrad's a great sailor.
104
You won a regatta last year, right?
105
Came in second, but...
106
Oh.
107
So, uh, did you teach?
108
I could, uh, use some lessons.
109
Did my mom put you up to this?
110
What?
111
Why?
112
Typical.
113
Man, a few words?
114
Apparently.
115
Yo, this shit is so boring.
116
Can we go somewhere?
117
Yeah, where?
118
We could go into town.
119
I don't know, buy some weed from that guy with the rainbow dash tattoo?
120
No, he got arrested last summer.
121
Oh, shit.
122
Really?
123
Yeah.
124
Yeah, we could go to the drive then.
125
Dude, gross.
126
No, I don't want to watch Belly hooking up with some kid in the backseat of a minivan.
127
Yo, actually...
128
Let's go to the driver, babe.
129
Wait, like.. like really?
130
Yeah.
131
Why not?
132
Yeah, yeah!
133
Alright, bro.
134
Good driver.
135
Oh, yes!
136
Get up!
137
Come on!
138
Hey, could you, um, grab me that drink, actually?
139
Maybe like a cherry coke or something?
140
Yeah, no problem.
141
It was good.
142
Thank you.
143
Yeah, I'll be right back.
144
Thanks.
145
What the hell do you think you're doing?
146
Uh, just catching the end of our favorite movie.
147
You have no right!
148
You have to go!
149
Oh, Billy, relax.
150
We're just joking around.
151
Stephen, if you don't leave, I swear to God, I will send everyone in this car your Dramine fanfic.
152
You wouldn't.
153
Oh, she spent an entire chapter talking about Draco's wand.
154
Bro!
155
Oh, my God, yeah.
156
Don't be embarrassed, man.
157
Draco's always!
158
Drop it.
159
Hey, I'm serious.
160
Please leave.
161
All right, let's go, guys.
162
What?
163
Steven, drive the car.
164
You were the one who wanted to come, Conrad.
165
You seem to have missed something here.
166
Would you mind starting all over again?
167
How was your hot date?
168
Excuse me?
169
Okay, relax.
170
We were just having a little fun.
171
You guys are assholes.
172
Belly, come on.
173
All I wanted was to go to a drive-in with a guy that I think is cute and sweet.
174
And you guys had to come and ruin it.
175
And us showing up for like two minutes ruined that, really?
176
Grow up, Ellie.
177
Why couldn't you let me have this one thing?
178
Huh?
179
Admit it.
180
You knew what you were doing.
181
What?
182
What was I doing?
183
Reminding me that you existed.
184
I don't know what you're talking about.
185
You cared where I was, who I was with.
186
No, I didn't.
187
I don't care.
188
Stop lying.
189
Stop being such a baby.
190
Oh, and you're such an adult.
191
You spent your Saturday night crashing my first date for fun.
192
Hi.
193
Hi, forget it.
194
Why don't you go smoke some more pot?
195
Why don't you go look in the mirror some morning?
196
I wonder if this is the way all crushes die.
197
With a whimper, slowly, and then just like that, gone.

なぜこのビデオで話す練習をするのか？

「The Summer I Turned Pretty」のエピソード2では、キャラクターたちのリアルな会話が展開されます。特に、Conradのセリフは、友人との軽妙なやり取りや、日常的な表現が含まれていて、英語スピーキング練習に最適です。このビデオを活用することによって、実際の会話の流れを理解しながら、非公式な表現やユーモアを取り入れたコミュニケーション能力を向上させることができます。

文法と表現の文脈

このビデオの中で使用されているいくつかのキーストラクチャーを分析してみましょう。

  • 命令形の使用: 「Just go back to bed, all right?」のような命令形は、友人に対するアドバイスや指示を表現する際によく使われます。これは、親しい関係においてよく見られるカジュアルな表現です。
  • 現在進行形: 「I am going to find my own date.」は、未来の計画を話す際の基本的な構造です。状況の変化を示すと同時に、話者の意図も明確に伝えます。
  • スラングの使用: 「My boys gotta get that bread.」のようなスラングや口語表現は、現代の若者の文化や口調を反映しています。これを学ぶことで、より自然な会話が可能になります。

一般的な発音トラップ

このセクションでは、ビデオ内で特に注意すべき発音やアクセントについて触れます。

  • deb（デブ）: ここでは「debutante（デビュタント）」という言葉が使われており、発音には注意が必要です。初めて聞く言葉を正確に発音するためには、反復練習が有効です。
  • ストレスのある音: 「morals（モラル）」のように、アクセントを意識して強調することで、より自然な発音に近づきます。

このビデオを使用して、YouTubeで英語学習を行いながら、英語のリスニングとスピーキング能力を高めていきましょう。特に、shadowspeakやshadow speakを使った練習が効果的です。実際の会話を模倣することで、より自信を持って話せるようになります。

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。
