1
Why can so many people understand English, but they can't speak?
2
This is a problem that honestly most of people face,
3
and to explain why this happens,
4
and how you can fix this,
5
I want to give you an analogy.
6
Imagine you go to the gym 4 times a week,
7
and at the gym, you only train your arms.
8
You never train your legs.
9
You just train your arms.
10
What's going to happen after a few months?
11
You're going to have very strong arms,
12
but your legs probably won't be that strong.
13
And it's the same with speaking.
14
If you don't speak, if you just listen to English speakers,
15
but you never speak, obviously your speaking is going to be weak.
16
So that's the source of this problem.
17
That's where it comes from.
18
And the solution is quite obvious.
19
The solution is to speak more.
20
It's just like training a muscle at the gym.
21
It's just like training your legs or your arms.
22
The more you do it,
23
the stronger it will become.
24
So if you're facing this problem,
25
if you're having problems speaking,
26
even though you can understand native speakers,
27
then I want you to make an effort to speak.
28
Even if you feel nervous to speak,
29
even if you feel like people are judging you,
30
you still need to speak.
31
Language, or English rather, is a language.
32
And languages need to be spoken.
33
If you don't speak a language,
34
you're never going to become fluent.
35
So if there's just one thing that you change,
36
one thing that you do to overcome this problem,
37
it needs to be speaking.
38
Communicating, Having conversations with people.
39
I'm going to give you the analogy of the gym.
40
I mentioned this earlier, right?
41
Going to the gym, training your muscles, becoming stronger.
42
Honestly, it's the same when you learn a language.
43
When you first go to the gym,
44
you're probably going to feel weak.
45
You might even feel self-conscious.
46
You might feel like you don't know what you're doing.
47
But after time, as time goes by,
48
the more you do it,
49
the stronger you will become the more confident you will feel and the more you will improve
50
it's the same with learning english
51
when you first have a conversation with somebody maybe you're at
52
a1 you're at a2 you're not very advanced you're going to feel nervous
53
you're going to struggle to find the right words to say it's completely normal
54
but if you stick with it if you keep speaking even
55
if you don't feel like it eventually you're going to feel more confident.
56
Eventually you're going to feel more comfortable speaking and eventually you're going to become more fluent.
57
It's very very simple.
58
So this is something that I recommend to my students all the time.
59
You need to speak.
60
Just speak.
61
Don't overcomplicate things.
62
You don't need to make it more difficult than it should be.
63
English is a language.
64
Languages need to be spoken.
65
Now a lot of students feel like native speakers are judging them when they speak.
66
They're worried that people are going to think less of them.
67
Maybe because they make a mistake,
68
they forget a word, they use something incorrectly.
69
And I understand your fear.
70
Because honestly, I thought the same when I was learning German,
71
when I was studying Italian.
72
I was scared to speak,
73
especially with native speakers, because I was worried they were judging me.
74
I expected that I had to be perfect.
75
That was something that I struggled with.
76
I'm a perfectionist.
77
I always want to be perfect.
78
But you have to keep in mind that most native speakers aren't judging you when you speak English.
79
Seriously, most native speakers are not judging you.
80
And if you don't believe me,
81
I want you to ask yourself this question.
82
Would you judge somebody learning your language?
83
If you're like most people, you wouldn't.
84
You'd actually be impressed.
85
You'd be proud of them.
86
You'd want to encourage them.
87
And English speakers are no different.
88
Native English speakers appreciate it when you make an effort to learn English.
89
Now, obviously there are some people who will judge you.
90
It's the case anywhere in life.
91
And you have to do your best to ignore these people.
92
You should not let them discourage you.
93
They're just negative people.
94
I'm sure you've experienced people like this.
95
Maybe English speakers, but maybe speakers of your own language.
96
So again, those are a very small minority of people.
97
If you can ignore them,
98
if you can forget about them,
99
then that's really going to help you.
100
But 99.9% of English speakers are not judging you for making mistakes.
101
And honestly, English speakers make mistakes speaking English.
102
This is something I see all the time.
103
Maybe you've seen native speakers use double negatives.
104
For example, I don't know nothing.
105
This is wrong in English.
106
We have to say, I don't know anything.
107
Okay, native speakers get this wrong all the time.
108
So just because somebody is a native English speaker doesn't mean they speak perfectly.
109
If you're a perfectionist, if you always want to speak perfectly,
110
I completely understand you because I'm the exact same way.
111
Just open your mouth and speak.
112
You can worry about grammar later,
113
but in the moment, in the conversation,
114
your priority should be speaking.
115
Just opening your mouth and speaking.
116
That's the key.
117
Remember, the purpose of language is communication.
118
It's not perfection.
119
It's communication.
120
So if you can express your ideas,
121
if you can communicate what you want to say, you're doing fine.
122
And if you keep doing this,
123
if you keep getting into conversation with people in English,
124
eventually you will improve.
125
Eventually you will become fluent.
126
It's a slow process.
127
You have to be patient.
128
Eventually you will become fluent.
129

文脈と背景
多くの人が英語を理解できる一方で、話すことができないという問題を抱えています。この現象は非常に一般的であり、話す能力の向上には努力が必要です。このトピックに関して、テーマを説明するための比喩を使いたいと思います。例えば、週に4回ジムに通っているとしましょう。しかし、そのとき腕の筋トレだけを行い、脚の筋トレは一切しないとどうなるでしょうか？数ヶ月後、腕は非常に強くなりますが、脚はおそらくそのままです。このように、会話をしなければ話す力は育ちません。したがって、言語を学ぶ際には積極的に話すことが重要です。
日常会話のためのトップ5フレーズ
- “Can I help you?”（お手伝いしましょうか？） - 会話の始まりに最適です。
- “How do you say this in English?”（これは英語でなんと言いますか？） - 学びの姿勢を示します。
- “I’m still learning.”（まだ学んでいるところです。） - 自信を持って学習中であることを説明できます。
- “Could you explain that again?”（もう一度説明してもらえますか？） - 理解を深めるためのリクエストです。
- “I’m nervous to speak.”（話すのが緊張します。） - 他者と共感を得るために使えます。
ステップバイステップ・シャドーイングガイド
英語での話す力を向上させるためには、シャドーイングが役立ちます。以下はシャドーイングの方法を紹介するステップバイステップガイドです。
- 教材を選ぶ：自分のレベルに合った英語の動画やオーディオを選びましょう。理解できる内容から始めるのがポイントです。
- 耳を傾ける：まずはリスニングを行い、話されている内容をしっかりと把握します。
- 声に出してみる：リスニングした後、声に出して同じ内容を繰り返します。これがshadowspeakの基本です。
- 録音して聞く：自分の声を録音し、どう聞こえるのかを確認します。これによって改善点が見つかります。
- フィードバックを受ける：誰かに自分の発音や表現についてフィードバックを求め、より良い表現方法を学びましょう。
言語はコミュニケーションのためのツールです。話さなければ流暢にはなれません。積極的に話し、多くの会話を持つことで、あなたの英会話能力は大きく向上します。
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。
