1
Repeat after me.
2
Let's shadow real-life English situations while practicing the words that are difficult to pronounce.
3
I asked you guys on Instagram to send me the words you struggle with the most in English.
4
So if you'd like to be a part of the next video, then follow me on Instagram.
5
Now, let's start.
6
The day I missed my bus in Mountain Town,
7
I woke up at 6.30 in a small mountain town.
8
I looked outside and saw an eagle flying above the mountains.
9
The view was literally incredible.
10
I thought to myself,
11
I think this is one of the coolest places in the world the coolest places in the world
12
all right if you had trouble pronouncing think versus this remember think you blow
13
and you put your tongue in between your teeth.
14
Think.
15
Now for this we blow and vibrate the same position of our tongue.
16
this feel your throat and say think no vibration now vibrates this
17
Perfect.
18
Another good word to practice is mountain.
19
Because we don't always pronounce mountain as mountain.
20
When we're speaking quickly, we can say mountain.
21
Mountain.
22
Mountain.
23
Mountain.
24
It's like you're cutting out the T.
25
Mountain.
26
That's a beautiful mountain over there.
27
I live in mountain town.
28
Last one.
29
Literally.
30
The T sounds more like a D.
31
Literally.
32
Literally.
33
Literally.
34
And the A is a, a.
35
Literally.
36
All right, next part.
37
I walked through the town and stopped at a small coffee shop.
38
The woman working there smiled and said,
39
Good morning.
40
Are you visiting these mountains for the first time?
41
I said, yes, I thought I would stay for two days.
42
But now I think I might stay longer.
43
She laughed and said, those are usually the first words visitors say.
44
All right, let's practice some words here.
45
Visiting.
46
Visiting sounds like a Z, not an S.
47
Not visiting.
48
Visiting.
49
Now we have another word there.
50
Laughed.
51
Laughed has two things I want to mention.
52
G-H in English makes the F sound.
53
Laugh, cough, rough, tough, G-H.
54
And in this particular E-D ending, we pronounce it T.
55
any ending of a verb with the sound sounds like
56
when we add ed so laugh present left in the past When we add ED,
57
it can either make the T, D, or ED sound.
58
In this case, it's T.
59
And let's practice one more.
60
Visitors.
61
V-Z-T-R-S.
62
Visitors.
63
Not visitors.
64
Visitors.
65
even though it looks like it would sound like or.
66
It's er.
67
All right, next part.
68
A few minutes later, an older man sat next to me.
69
He started showing me the yarn he uses to knit.
70
He explained for so long that I started to yawn.
71
When someone talks about yarn, I yawn.
72
All right, let's go through these two words.
73
Yarn versus yawn.
74
Yarn.
75
Yarn.
76
Yarn.
77
So we roll the tongue.
78
Yarn. And yawn.
79
It's like saying aww.
80
Yarn.
81
And remember, the K is silent in knit.
82
Just like no. Alright, next page.
83
After we finished talking, I walked through the town again.
84
I passed a bookstore and saw a sign that said,
85
One word can change your world.
86
I stopped and read it twice.
87
One word can change your world.
88
I really liked that.
89
All right, we have some big ones here, starting with town.
90
Town.
91
Out.
92
Town.
93
Word.
94
Word.
95
Like nerd.
96
Heard.
97
Word.
98
Not ward, word and world.
99
World.
100
Like twirl, curl, world.
101
One word can change your world.
102
Practice this one.
103
It's important.
104
All right, next page.
105
Later that afternoon, I climbed a nearby mountain trail.
106
At the top, I saw another eagle flying across the sky.
107
I literally stood there for 10 minutes watching it.
108
The air was cool.
109
Everything was quiet.
110
And for a moment, I forgot about work, deadlines, and my phone.
111
All right? So, trail.
112
Trail.
113
It's difficult to pronounce the T.
114
Trail.
115
So say trail.
116
It sounds more natural.
117
Trail.
118
Now next one, eagle.
119
It's not the same as ego.
120
Eagle. And literally.
121
Also, something someone mentioned on Instagram.
122
cool.
123
Maybe you're pronouncing it cool.
124
If you want to sound more natural, you could say cool.
125
It's like adding a woe at the end.
126
Cool.
127
Cool.
128
It sounds more like a native would say cool.
129
But I think that it doesn't matter.
130
I think an accent is what makes you unique,
131
and it's what connects you to your native language.
132
It doesn't matter if you have an accent.
133
Accents are beautiful, in my opinion.
134
But if you want to sound native, that's how So you can say, cool.
135
All right, our last page.
136
As the sun started to set,
137
I sat on a bench and thought about something.
138
Would I rather live in a place like this or leave and continue traveling?
139
I wasn't sure, but I knew one thing.
140
This was a day I would remember for a very long time.
141
All right, we have actually three big ones here.
142
I wanted to mention one I didn't say.
143
Live.
144
So there's live and live.
145
The same spelling, different pronunciation.
146
Live.
147
I live in Mexico.
148
Live.
149
I am going live on YouTube.
150
Leave.
151
I will leave tomorrow.
152
Live.
153
Live.
154

なぜこのビデオで話す練習をするべきか？

このビデオでは、実際の英語シチュエーションをシャドーイングしながら、発音が難しい単語を練習します。英語シャドーイングは、リスニング能力と発音を向上させるための非常に効果的な方法です。特に、他の学習者と一緒にコミュニケーションを取る際に、自信を持って話せるようになります。さらに、具体的な実生活の場面を通じて学ぶことで、学んだ表現や単語を自然に使えるようになります。これは、IELTS スピーキング対策としても役立つでしょう。

文法と表現の文脈での分析

  • "I think this is one of the coolest places in the world" - この文は、「思う」という感情を表現するのに使われます。「I think」は日常会話で頻繁に使われます。
  • "Are you visiting these mountains for the first time?" - ここで使われる「visiting」は、「訪れる」という動作を示し、訪問者との会話でよく使われるフレーズです。
  • "She laughed and said, those are usually the first words visitors say." - この文では、過去形の使用が重要です。話の流れをスムーズにし、相手の反応を得るための表現力を高めます。

一般的な発音の罠

このビデオにはいくつかの発音の難しい単語が含まれています。英語学習者がつまずきやすい単語を以下に挙げます。

  • thinkとthis: 発音の違いを理解することが重要です。「think」では舌を前歯の間に入れ、振動を伴わずに発音します。
  • mountain: 速く話すと「mountain」が「mount」になることがあります。このような略語を意識することで、流暢さが向上します。
  • literally: 「T」の音が「D」のように聞こえることがあります。正しい発音を身につけるためには、日常的に練習することが必要です。

これらのトラップを避けることで、より自然な英語を話せるようになります。このビデオを利用して、YouTubeで英語学習を進めましょう。自分の発音を確認し、効果的な英語シャドーイングを行うことで、あなたの話し方が大きく変わる可能性があります。

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。
