쉐도잉 연습: Crazy Laws That Still Exist Around The World - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기
레슨 만드는 중...
1
Thinking about taking a bath with a donkey?
2
Fancy getting drunk in a British pub?
3
Well think again, as these potentially harmless activities, and many more, could well land you in trouble with the long arm of the law.
4
Laws of the land that may have made sense when first brought about, have a habit of sticking around, even if they have no real place in today's society.
5
Add to those antiquated laws, a few newer bizarre rules of the land that have found their way into the law books, and we have a truly bizarre set of world legislation.
6
So what are some of the strangest laws that still remain on the books around the world?
7
That's what we'll find out in this episode of the Infographics Show, Strange Laws That Still Exist.
8
Great Britain has some of the strangest laws in the world, some of which are broken every day.
9
It is illegal, for example, to be drunk in a pub in the UK.
10
How many thousands of Brits break that law every single day?
11
It is also illegal to carry a plank of wood along the pavement, especially, one would imagine, after getting drunk in the pub.
12
Not quite so bizarre is the stipulation
13
that members of parliament in jolly old England are not allowed to wear a suit of armour in parliament.
14
But surely this law should have been updated by the lawmakers themselves while in parliament, no?
15
It is also highly illegal to handle a salmon in suspicious circumstances in England and Wales, and if there is an unsuspicious way to handle freshwater fish out of water,
16
we'd love to see it.
17
It's also an offence to beat or shake a carpet or rug, except if it's a doormat, until 4, 8 am, in the UK.
18
And if you're an Englander, forget about dining on exotic waterfowl.
19
Unless you happen to be the Queen of England, it is illegal to eat a swan.
20
Should you be pregnant in Britain, it is perfectly legal to spend a penny in a policeman's hat, or in fact, anywhere else should it be an emergency.
21
And on a similar note, and on the subject of toilets, up in Scotland, if somebody knocks on your door asking to use the bog, you must, by law, let them inside and offer your bathroom.
22
Also in Scotland, that bizarrely colorful land of haggis and bagpipes, there may be more to that folktale about Scotsmen and their kilts.
23
Ever wondered what exactly is beneath the famous tartan kilt?
24
Well according to ancient legend, nothing.
25
No underwear can be worn under the kilt, and according to an old law, or perhaps to be fair, urban legend, if a Scotsman is found to be wearing underwear beneath his kilt,
26
then he is routinely charged two beers by whoever discovered his non-commando status.
27
Although we can't confirm the exact legal standing of this law, it is too difficult to resist sharing.
28
The USA also has its fair share of quirky laws.
29
In Arizona, allowing your pet donkey to sleep in the bathtub is against the law.
30
Placing salt on a railway track is an offense punishable by the death penalty in Birmingham.
31
At first glance, this seems a tad harsh.
32
But the reason is that the train could either derail or attract cattle onto the track, which could also result in a major derailment or at least a delay.
33
So don't go putting salt on the rails, kids.
34
It's also against the law to play a game of frisbee without first acquiring the permission of a lifeguard in Los Angeles.
35
Although responsible frisbee throwing is, we are told, permitted.
36
Who can blame the city with all those lawsuits flying around?
37
And what happened to the chicken who crossed the road in Georgia?
38
Its owner got arrested.
39
It is against the law to let your chickens roam around unattended in this state.
40
In Hawaii, it is illegal to work at the same company as your twin brother or sister.
41
We guess this law is in place to avoid workplace confusion as to who is doing what
42
and who has taken the day off.
43
And dog lovers, beware.
44
Unless you have four legs and a tail that wags, it's illegal to live in a dog kennel in Idaho, bringing a whole new meaning to sleeping in the doghouse.
45
Perhaps stranger than all these laws, though, is the law in Vermont, whereby women who want false teeth are required, by law, to first obtain permission from their husband.
46
Quite why this law still exists is totally baffling to us here at the Infographics Show.
47
Perhaps someone can explain this one to us.
48
And then there's the strange legal world of mainland Europe.
49
In Greece, it is illegal to go sightseeing around the ancient ruins, wearing high heels, Even in France, it is illegal to name your pet pig Napoleon.
50
In Rome, Italy, keeping a lone goldfish in a fishbowl is considered animal cruelty and is against the law, but if you have more than one in the bowl, that is considered acceptable because,
51
we all know, fish are sociable creatures.
52
Kids in parts of Poland are not allowed to travel outside the house with any Winnie the Pooh memorabilia, including t-shirts, backpacks, or lunchboxes.
53
The cartoon character is considered a non-gender-specific, inappropriate hermaphrodite, without having the decency to wear a pair of pants, and the Poles, for some reason,
54
find Winnie's lack of genitalia offensive.
55
This one isn't exactly an ancient law, but was simply too brilliant to leave out of our study of quirky laws.
56
In the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh, the sale and importation of water pistols is prohibited during New Year festivities.
57
The reason being
58
that a popular way to enjoy the New Year in this
59
part of the world is to take part in a huge water fight, and that, Governor Che Sofara reckons, may lead to social unrest.
60
In Thailand, it is illegal to step on money, and it is also illegal to leave home without wearing underwear.
61
It is also illegal to hold your hand out in tribute to the Hunger Games, or to publicly criticize a fellow countryman.
62
In parts of India, if a man is in debt, he can legally offer his wife as a down payment until the debt is settled.
63
In Japan, it is illegal to be fat, with the government setting a maximum waistline of 33.5 inches for men and 35.5 inches for women.
64
In China, Buddhist monks are banned from reincarnating unless they have specific government permission.
65
Yes, Asia is a wacky place.
66
In Samoa, it is illegal to forget your wife's birthday.
67
In Australia, it is against the law to disrupt a wedding, an act that is punishable by a fine of $10,000.
68
All in all, across the world, while laws are there to help protect us and keep society functioning as a moral and ethical place,
69
some of the decisions made by lawmakers will keep on baffling us as long as old laws remain
70
and new bizarre rules come into being.
71
So what's the strangest law you've ever heard of?
72
How does it stack up with our list of ridiculous laws?
73
Let us know in the comments.
74

세계의 이상한 법률: 영어 학습의 재미있는 소재
이 비디오는 전 세계에 아직도 존재하는 이상한 법률에 대해 이야기하며, 흥미로운 주제와 다양한 영어 표현을 담고 있습니다. 일상 대화에서도 자주 사용되는 단어와 문장 구조가 포함되어 있어 영어 회화 연습에 적합하며, IELTS 스피킹 준비에도 도움이 됩니다. 또한, 다양한 국가와 문화에 대한 이야기를 통해 영상 영어 공부의 재미를 더할 수 있습니다.
일상 대화에 유용한 상위 5개 표현
- land you in trouble: 곤경에 빠뜨리다. "이런 행동은 너를 곤경에 빠뜨릴 수 있어."
- stick around: 남아 있다. "이 법은 오늘날에도 여전히 남아 있습니다."
- bizarre: 기이한, 이상한. "이상한 법률이 여전히 존재합니다."
- routinely: 일상적으로, 규칙적으로. "그는 일상적으로 이 일을 합니다."
- baffling: 이해하기 어려운. "이 법의 존재는 이해하기 어렵습니다."
비디오를 활용한 shadow speech 가이드
1. 비디오를 2-3번 듣고 전체 내용을 이해합니다. 이상한 법률에 대한 이야기이므로 주제에 집중하며, 어려운 단어는 문맥에서 추측합니다.
2. 1분 단위로 나누어 영어 발음 교정을 합니다. "It is illegal to be drunk in a pub"와 같은 문장을 따라하면서 강세와 억양을 주의깊게 관찰합니다.
3. 화자의 말을 따라하면서 동시에 말합니다. 처음에는 느리게, 점점 빠르게 해나가며 발음과 리듬을 맞춥니다.
4. 자신이 말한 것을 녹음하여 원본과 비교합니다. 틀린 발음이나 문장 구조를 찾아 수정합니다.
5. 주제에 대해 자신의 의견을 영어로 표현해 봅니다. "나라마다 이상한 법률이 있는데, 가장 재미있는 건 무엇인가요?"와 같은 질문에 답변해 보면 영어 회화 연습에 도움이 됩니다.
이 비디오를 통해 재미있는 내용을 배우면서 영어 실력을 향상시킬 수 있습니다. 영상 영어 공부를 꾸준히 하면, 자연스럽게 영어 실력이 늘어날 것입니다.
이 영상의 문법
화자가 가장 많이 쓰는 문형을 영상 속 실제 표현과 함께 정리했습니다.
| 문형 | 영상 속 표현 |
|---|---|
| 수동태 be + 과거분사 — 누가 하는지보다 무슨 일이 일어나는지에 초점 | are broken · be drunk · are not allowed |
| 현재완료 have/has + 과거분사 — 과거의 일이 지금도 관련이 있을 때 | have found · has taken · you've ever heard |
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
