10
so what is intonation to put it simply intonation is the melody of spoken english it is the way in
11
which your voice rises
12
and falls as you speak let me show you an example
13
i am watching this video to improve my english i am
14
watching this video to improve my english see now why does intonation matter.
15
Intonation is not just to add beauty to your speech.
16
It can change the meaning of what you say.
17
For one thing, intonation can highlight the central point in a sentence.
18
Rising the intonation on a certain word in a sentence can show
19
that that word is the center of the message that you want to deliver with that sentence.
20
For example, I like to play tennis.
21
I like to play tennis.
22
I like to play tennis.
23
I like to play tennis.
24
If I say that I like to play tennis, it means that it's me who wants to play tennis, not you, not him, not her.
25
If I say I like to play tennis it means i
26
like it i don't hate it the central point is like
27
if i say i like to play tennis it means
28
that i want to play it i don't want to watch it and
29
if i say i like to play tennis it means i
30
like to play tennis i don't want to play soccer as
31
you can see the same sentence could have four different meanings
32
just by raising my tone of voice on a specific word in
33
that sentence for another thing intonation can show attitude it can reflect the attitude of the speaker for example
34
if you are happy you tend to raise your voice and if you are sad you lower it
35
let me give you an example
36
if i am happy i would say i want to play tennis if i am sad i would say
37
I want to play tennis.
38
You see?
39
So the intonation and the loudness of my voice can show the attitude, even though my face does not change.
40
I want to play tennis.
41
I want to play tennis.
42
Now, if you add intonation to some facial expressions, then you can deliver a very concise message i want to
43
play tennis i want to play tennis now let's learn about intonation patterns
44
there are three main intonation patterns look at this example do you like tennis
45
i don't play tennis but i like it one more time do you like tennis do you like tennis
46
I don't play tennis.
47
I don't play tennis, but I like it.
48
I like it.
49
In this sentence, you can see three different intonation patterns.
50
The first one is a rising intonation.
51
Do you like tennis?
52
Tennis.
53
Tennis.
54
Repeat after me.
55
Tennis.
56
So your voice rises.
57
Do you like tennis? the second one is a fall rise intonation
58
which means first your voice falls
59
and then it rises I don't play tennis repeat after me I don't play tennis I don't play tennis
60
and the third one is falling intonation
61
which means your tone of voice falls down
62
but I like it I like it I like it I don't say I like it no I like it
63
so let's read the sentence again repeat after me do you like tennis I don't play tennis
64
but I like it now it is time to learn more about these patterns
65
and see when to use which one of them.
66
in order to improve your pronunciation and speak more clearly.
67
The first pattern is falling intonation.
68
Falling intonation.
69
We use it when we are talking about something which will definitely happen or that is complete.
70
So use it when you are certain of something.
71
Let's have a look at some examples.
72
I have to work.
73
I have to work.
74
Repeat after me and notice that the last word has a falling intonation.
75
It means my voice comes down.
76
I have to work.
77
This is for sure.
78
I'm certain of it.
79
I have to work.
80
I have to work.
81
Let's see another example.
82
Here's your book.
83
Here's your book.
84
Pay attention.
85
Here's your book.
86
I couldn't find it.
87
I couldn't find it.
88
I couldn't find it.
89
I finished my homework.
90
I finished my homework.
91
I finished my homework.
92
I want to see you tomorrow.
93
I want to see you tomorrow.
94
I want to see you tomorrow.
95
So we use the falling intonation when we are sure and certain of something or to talk about something which is complete.
96
Falling intonation is also very common in WH questions.
97
For example, what time does the movie begin?
98
what time does the movie begin as you can see as
99
i get to the end of the sentence my tone of
100
voice falls down what time does the movie begin where is
101
the nearest bus stop where's the nearest bus stop where's the
102
nearest bus stop why do you study english why do you
103
study english why do you study english the next pattern is
104
rising intonation rising intonation is very common in yes no questions your voice rises
105
when you get to the end of the question for example is he sad
106
lesson up is he sad i don't say is he sad
107
no is he sad it's a yes no question yes he is No, he isn't.
108
Is he sad?
109
Is she our doctor?
110
Is she our doctor?
111
Is she our doctor?
112
Did they call?
113
Did they call?
114
Did they call?
115
Now, look at this question.
116
Are you watching the movie or not?
117
This is called an alternative question because you have two alternatives.
118
One before or and one after or when you have
119
or in a question that's an alternative question and
120
when you have an alternative question before or you have a rising intonation
121
and after or you have a falling intonation
122
so let's read this question again together are you watching the movie
123
or not are you watching the movie or not are you watching the movie
124
or not another example is he sitting or standing?
125
Is he sitting or standing?
126
Are they coming or going?
127
Are they coming or going?
128
And the third pattern of intonation is a fall rise intonation
129
which has a fall and then it's followed by a rise in your tone of voice.
130
We use this when something is incomplete or we are uncertain of something
131
or we still want to continue the sentence
132
and the sentence is not finished yet look at this i'm tired i'm tired this is a simple falling intonation
133
which means i'm talking about something that i am sure of
134
and the sentence is complete i'm tired but look at this one i'm tired
135
but let's go out and have some fun i'm tired i'm tired
136
but let's go out
137
and have some fun the first part of the sentence has a fall rise intonation I'm tired
138
which means the sentence is not complete yet.
139
I still want to continue the sentence.
140
I want to show contrast.
141
I'm tired but let's go out and have some fun.
142
Look at this one.
143
I don't play tennis.
144
I don't play tennis.
145
This is the following intonation because I'm sure of it.
146
I don't play tennis but look at this one i don't play tennis
147
but i like watching it i don't play tennis
148
but i like watching it the first half of the sentence has a fall rise intonation on the word tennis
149
i don't play tennis which means the sentence is not complete yet
150
and i want to show contrast i don't play tennis
151
but i like watching it in these two examples the fall rise intonation was on one word.
152
Tennis.
153
tired it's also possible that the fall rise intonation are separately on two different words
154
so one word with the falling and one word with the rising intonation
155
that is also called the fall rise intonation this fall rise intonation shows
156
that my sentence is not complete
157
and i want to talk about a contrasting point the first week was good
158
but the second week was terrible the first week has a
159
falling intonation was good as a rising intonation this is a fall rise intonation
160
and it shows that the sentence is not complete the first week was good
161
but the second week was terrible
162
or look at this one she's quite a good teacher she's quite a good teacher the intonation shows
163
that the sentence is not complete
164
and by hearing this sentence your mind immediately looks for a
165
but listen to it again she's quite a good teacher okay
166
but she's quite a good teacher
167
but she's a bit old she's quite a good teacher
168
but she's a bit old on the adverb quite we have
169
a falling intonation she's quite a good teacher on the word
170
teacher we have a rising intonation she's quite a good teacher
171
and that's it guys we have learned about three patterns of intonation falling rising
172
and the fall rise intonation
173
and we have learned how intonation can help us improve our pronunciation sound more like a native speaker
174
and make ourselves understood better and don't forget

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。
