Hey, good morning.
2
You look like you're running on coffee this morning.
3
Ha, that obvious, huh?
4
I had the worst commute today.
5
There was a huge accident on the highway.
6
Took me almost an hour and a half to get in.
7
Oh no, that's rough.
8
Did you hear about it on the radio?
9
or did you just get stuck in it?
10
I got stuck right in the middle of it.
11
I was sitting there for 40 minutes before traffic even started moving.
12
I should have just taken the train.
13
Tell me about it.
14
I've been taking the train for the past month and it's been a game changer.
15
No stress.
16
I just read my book.
17
You've convinced me.
18
I'm going to start doing that.
19
Anyway, are you ready for the big presentation this afternoon?
20
I think so.
21
I stayed late last night finishing the slides.
22
I'm feeling pretty good about it.
23
But I'm always a little nervous before these things.
24
You're going to do great.
25
Your last presentation was really impressive.
26
Everyone was talking about it afterward.
27
Oh, that means a lot.
28
I just hope the client likes the new proposal.
29
We've put so much work into it.
30
I'm sure they will.
31
Hey, have you seen the email that went out this morning about the new project timeline?
32
I saw it come in, but I haven't read it yet.
33
Is everything okay?
34
The deadline got moved up by two weeks.
35
Management wants to wrap things up before the end of the quarter.
36
Two weeks?
37
That's going to be tight.
38
Are people freaking out?
39
A little bit.
40
There's a team meeting at three to talk through it.
41
You should definitely be there. For sure.
42
Good thing I finished those slides last night.
43
At least that's off my plate.
44
Exactly.
45
Hey, do you want to grab lunch today?
46
We could go over some ideas before the meeting. That sounds perfect.
47
The new sandwich place around the corner?
48
I've been wanting to try it.
49
I was thinking the exact same thing.
50
Let's say 12.30?
51
Works for me.
52
All right, I should get back to it.
53
Got a lot to get through this morning.
54
Same here.
55
See you at 12.30, and good luck with the presentation.
56
Thanks.

I'll need it.

この動画の文法
話し手がよく使っている文型を、動画の実際の表現とともに紹介します。
| 文型 | 動画での表現 |
|---|---|
| 現在完了進行形 have/has been + -ing — 以前に始まり今も続いている動作 | I've been taking · I've been wanting |
| 現在完了形 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去の出来事が今も関係している | You've convinced · We've put · haven't read |
注意したい発音
話し手はI'm, I've, you'reなど、短縮形や弱形を12回使っています。聞こえたとおりの短い形で発音しましょう。
日本語話者が苦手な音：
- /v/ — /b/ にならないように、上の歯を下唇に当てる: impressive /ɪmˈpɹɛsɪv/, convince /kənˈvɪns/
- 子音の連続 — 間に母音を入れない: presentation /ˌpɹɛzn̩ˈteɪʃn̩/, slide /ˈslaɪ̯d/, impressive /ɪmˈpɹɛsɪv/, proposal /pɹəˈpoʊzəl/, afterwards /ˈæf.tɚ.wɚdz/
この動画での練習方法
- まず声を出さずに動画を最後まで聞き、知らない単語をメモします。
- 通常の速度で一文ずつシャドーイングし、話し手のリズムに合うまで繰り返します。
- 自分の声を録音して元の音声と比べます。presentation, slide, impressiveなどの単語に特に注意しましょう。
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。
