쉐도잉 연습: Everyday English: Talk About Your Job | American English Connected Reading - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

Hey, what's up?

It's Alex.

Today, let's look at the connected sounds in a short piece where somebody is explaining what kind of job they do.

Now, this isn't actually my job.

I just made this up.

But let's take a look anyway.

I'm a freelance drone photographer.

So there's not really any changed sounds here in this first sentence.

But pay attention to how the sounds connect.

I'm a free, I'm a freelance drone, drone photographer.

All of these sounds connect to each other, the vowels and the consonants.

I'm a freelance drone photographer.

I own a couple different types of drones and people hire me to get aerial photos for them.

I own a couple different types of drones.

I own a couple different types.

Different types.

We connect the two T sounds together.

Different types.

And look at this.

I'm not saying different.

That first E in different is completely removed.

I'm not saying different types.

It's just different.

Different types.

I own a couple different types of drones.

Here, of, before the consonant in drones, removes its sound.

Types a drones.

I own a couple different types of drones.

And people hire me.

And people, and people hire me.

Now this is interesting and usually loosens its sound.

It's normally an and people right and people but before a sound often turns into a sound.

So it becomes and people and people hire me and people hire me.

Now you can only say this if you're speaking quickly.

As soon as you're speaking slowly, these connected sound rules don't usually apply.

So if you're speaking slowly, and people hire me, and people.. now suddenly I'm saying every letter in the word,

but as soon as I start speaking quickly, it's, and people hire me, and people hire me, and people hire me to get.. hire me to get..

so the word to gets reduced a lot here.

hire me to get aerial photos.

So here to get ariel, there's a tap there, to get aerial photos, to get aerial photos.

Hire me to get aerial photos for them.

Forum.

Now I could say for them, both are fine, but here aerial photos forum.

Forum.

The important part is that we're taking out the TH in them.

Aerial photos for them.

Most of my clients are businesses who want images for an ad campaign.

Most of my clients, we take out the v in of again, most of my clients, sir, sir, most of my clients are businesses.

You might have seen sometimes the apostrophe R E spelling of R.

Most of my clients are businesses.

You might have seen sometimes the apostrophe R-E spelling of R.

Most of my clients are businesses.

Now, in American English, we don't normally write that.

It's very uncommon to see apostrophe R-E after an ordinary noun like clients, for example.

But we say it like that.

Most of my clients are businesses.

Most of my clients are businesses who want images.

Who want images.

Here the T gets completely removed from want.

Who won images for an ad campaign.

For an ad campaign.

Here for turns into fur.

For an ad campaign.

Like car dealerships or small farms.

Like car.

Like car dealerships.

Here the K in like and the K in car connect together.

Like car dealerships or small farms.

or turns into just er, or small farms.

I also sometimes do work for developers.

I also connect these two vowel sounds together.

I also sometimes, I also sometimes do work for developers.

Here we're changing for into fur, for developers, for developers, for developers who want images of the land they're thinking about buying,

who want images.

And we're going to take out that T after the N before a vowel.

Who wan images, who wan images of the land they're thinking about buying.

Of the turns into a the.

Wan images of the land, of the land there of the land they're thinking about buying

and this is a series of complicated changes here of the land there

so when I say land the D disappears and the N connects to the TH

images of the land they're thinking about buying of the land they're thinking about buying.

So we have two words here that end in ing, thinking about buying.

In a lot of fast speech, the ing just turns into in.

This happens to me if I'm speaking really informally, but if I'm speaking a little bit more formally, like if I'm talking about my job,

I'll probably keep the ng sound at the end of an ing word thinking about buying instead of thinking about buy-in

finally the t in about turns into a glottal stop thinking about thinking about about buying

so whether you're saying ing or just in for the thinking

and buying words the t in about will always turn into a glottal stop in fast speech.

I'm a freelance drone photographer.

I own a couple different types of drones and people hire me to get aerial photos for them.

Most of my clients are businesses who want images for an ad campaign like car dealerships or small farms.

I also sometimes do work for developers who want images of the land they're thinking about buying.

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.
