1
Ah!
2
Why are you trying to hit me?
3
I'm trying to hit the target.
4
It's over there.
5
I know, Dingus.
6
I thought you were good at this.
7
I was.
8
Coach Dale says I have the yips.
9
It's not contagious, is it?
10
No, it happens in sports.
11
Suddenly you can't do a thing that used to be easy.
12
It doesn't sound real.
13
Then why can't I pitch anymore?
14
Ooh, perhaps it's the onset of puberty and the hysterical mood swings that go with it.
15
Dingus, house.
16
You're only proving my point.
17
You gave me your yips.
18
What?
19
I froze on a test.
20
That's never happened before.
21
It's all your fault.
22
I told you it's not contagious.
23
You put the thought in my head.
24
The power of suggestion is very real.
25
Case in point, tulip mania.
26
Here we go.
27
Tulip mania was an insane desire to buy and trade tulip bulbs in the 1600s.
28
It nearly ruined the Dutch economy.
29
You would not believe the guilders they were spending.
30
How can you remember this stupid information but not the stuff on your test?
31
You tell me, they're your yips.
32
Sheldon, if I knew how to make it stop, I would tell you.
33
You better.
34
Maybe it's puberty making you all emotional.
35
I check my armpits smoothest balloons!
36
Ugh.
37
The best thing to do is get out of your head.
38
How do I do that?
39
You just turn your brain off.
40
It's like I'm not even your son.
41
Look, I know you don't respect what I do as a coach.
42
Maybe you do know me.
43
But this is the thing I actually know about.
44
I've seen it happen to my players.
45
I've seen it happen to pros in golf, in baseball.
46
The answer's always the same.
47
Stop thinking and get out of your own way.
48
I don't know how to do that.
49
I decided to heed my father's advice.
50
I wasn't sure how to turn off my brain.
51
Thankfully, I live with an expert.
52
What's up?
53
I've never really thought about not thinking before.
54
Well, I'm asking you to think about it.
55
But I thought you were interested in not thinking.
56
I am.
57
I want you to think about not thinking and then teach me how to do it. Do what?
58
Not think.
59
All right.
60
This is tough.
61
I'm good at not thinking, but I don't think I can teach you how to not think without thinking.
62
Well, thank you for trying.
63
Hold on.
64
What if you're thinking about something else instead?
65
Would that count as thinking or not thinking?
66
I suppose it's similar to the mantras extolled by the sages of the East.
67
It's a practice that Swami Vivekananda called Japa Yoga, and it's intended to bring out a single pointedness of concentration.
68
Sorry, I zoned out.
69
Ooh, tell me how.
70
Let's see.
71
You were blabbering, it all started to blur together, and I was gone.
72
At what point did it start to happen?
73
I don't know.
74
Say it again.
75
I said, I suppose it's similar to the mantras extolled by the sages of the East.
76
It's a practice that Swami Vivekananda called Japa Yoga. That is wild.

アクセントを正確にするコツ

shadow speech(シャドースピーチ)の練習に最適な動画です。特に男性キャラクターの発音は自然なアメリカ英語で、短いフレーズのリズムが重要です。「Dingus」「Ugh」などの間投詞は軽く発音し、「tulip mania」のような固有名詞は強調せずに流れるように話します。shadow speakの際は、会話のテンポに合わせて息継ぎを練習し、「I told you it's not contagious.」のような否定文のアクセントを覚えると、自然なスピーキングにつながります。

これらのポイントを押さえてshadowspeaksの練習を重ねると、日常会話の自然さと語彙力が向上し、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立ちます。

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。
