hey guys welcome back to my channel
2
when you speak a native language you don't consciously think about grammar vocabulary
3
or sentence structures right you can just speak fluently
4
and spontaneously this is because you are so familiar with language structure
5
and it has become your second nature many of us want to cultivate
6
that same effortless mindset when speaking english and start thinking in english instead of translating from our mother tongue In today's video,
7
I will share my thoughts on developing English thinking and give you guys some suggestions to achieve that natural flow of speaking.
8
First, I think it's quite normal for us to translate from Chinese to English when speaking.
9
I believe it is a natural process for everybody learning English as a second language
10
because when you are so fluent in your native source language, it will inevitably influence your new language learning the longer you
11
have immersed in the source language environment the bigger the impact is
12
so don't be anxious establish english thinking in a noun english
13
environment is not easy try following my tips in this video and see
14
if you can get some inspiration although it's difficult to reach
15
native level proficiency in a second language we can try to learn common fixed expressions
16
or chunks in order to speak more naturally and understand native speakers better when listening.
17
A chunk is a string of words that we can find in our memory as a ready-made unit.
18
It's just like a toolbox that is already put up together
19
and can be used anytime you want instead of some separated accessories.
20
In Chinese, we also have chunks.
21
Most apparently those four character words that you can't really break down word by word but they make meanings as a whole.
22
Well, English has similar chunks or collocations that can be best learned as a unit.
23
Chunks we're familiar with include phrases like on the one hand, on the other hand, one thing is,
24
or even some filler words you By category, there are several types of chunks in English,
25
namely sentence stutters, collocations, verb patterns, and some idioms.
26
Sentence stutters include I like the way, the thing is, like what you said.
27
Collocations refers to some fixed phrasal patterns such as daily reading, by average.
28
Learning chunks rather than individual words help you reduce differences and pauses in speaking.
29
and you will be able to speak faster because chunks help you anticipate
30
which word comes after the other and speak out naturally.
31
Also, it can help you better understand in listening as you can anticipate what's coming next.
32
You don't have to completely stop translating your head.
33
That's an inevitable part of second language acquisition.
34
The goal is to expand your repertoire of ready-made chunks that you can use effortlessly.
35
After figuring out a chunk, put it in a context to see how it's used in real conversation or speeches.
36
For example, like what you said, this phrase.
37
Yes, yes, I love that rule.
38
And I also liked what you said, you know, it's not adding something onto your already.
39
I think, you know, for most of us, being real, like what you said, and just saying, hey, I'm actually having a tough day.
40
I feel like what you said earlier about speaking straight, not patting things with a log of sugar, it really resonated with me.
41
Okay, so this phrase refers to something has been talked by the another speaker before, and you'd like to show agreement on that point.
42
Now we know it can be used as a chunk and followed by about, like what you said about, plus a topic, or give your own comments first
43
and plus like what you said to show you take the same stand with the speaker.
44
For vocabulary, try to memorize common collocations instead of just single words.
45
Like I said before, you have the same stand, the word stand.
46
Rather than purely memorizing its meaning and attitude towards a particular issue or position taken in your argument, you can directly memorize the collocations,
47
take a stand or a top stand.
48
This gives you more natural sounding language when next time you want to express the meaning.
49
Another way to start thinking in English is to use English or English only resources from the beginning,
50
instead of constantly translating back and forth.
51
So what does it mean?
52
First, stop using a english chinese dictionary use a english explanation to understand new words or concepts
53
which can help you learn words by thinking english instead of
54
simply transfer it into a mother tongue sure it's convenient but it's not helpful in giving yourself a language environment
55
so secondly practice english mini speeches and prepare it by drafting a english mic map
56
this makes you conceptualize your ideas in english it can also make you more confident and natural when start speaking.
57
So when practicing, don't get frustrated if you still catch yourself translating in your head.
58
That's just a normal part of the process.
59
The goal is to create more and more opportunities to immerse yourself in English and develop that chunk-based mindset.
60
Over time, this will significantly boost your fluency.

이 비디오는 누구를 위한 것인가요?

영어를 배우고 10년 이상 경험을 쌓은 사람의 팁을 담은 이 비디오는 IELTS 스피킹 준비생부터 일상적으로 영어를 구사하고 싶은 중급 이상 학습자에게 딱입니다. 모국어로 번역하면서 말하는 습관을 고치고, 자연스럽게 영어로 생각하며 말하고 싶은 분들에게 실용적인 방법을 제시해줍니다. 특히 영상 영어 공부를 통해 실제 사용되는 표현을 익히고 싶은 분들에게 큰 도움이 될 거예요.

빼놓을 수 없는 표현들

영어로 자연스럽게 말하기 위해선 "chunk" (덩어리 표현)이 중요합니다. 이 비디오에서 소개된 유용한 chunk를 알아봅시다:

  • like what you said: 상대방이 말한 내용에 동의하거나 참고할 때 사용. 예: "I feel like what you said earlier about speaking straight really resonated with me." (당신이 직접적으로 말하는 것에 대해 먼저 말한 내용이 정말 공감되었어요.)
  • take a stand: 입장을 취하다. 단어 "stand"를 외우는 것보다 이 collocation을 외우면 더 자연스러운 표현이 됩니다.
  • on the one hand, on the other hand: 한편으로는~ 다른 한편으로는~, 논리적인 설명에 자주 사용되는 chunk입니다.

어떻게 발음과 리듬을 잡을까요?

영어로 생각하고 말하는 데 도움이 되는 방법 중 하나는 shadowspeak (쉐도잉)입니다. 쉐도잉이란 비디오나 오디오를 듣고 즉시 따라 말하는 연습법으로, 발음, 리듬, 억양을 자연스럽게 익힐 수 있습니다. 이 비디오의 스피커처럼 자연스러운 흐름을 따라가려면 chunk 단위로 듣고 따라하는 것이 효과적입니다. shadow speak 연습을 할 때는 "like what you said"와 같은 짧은 구절부터 시작해 점점 길게 늘려가세요. 또한 shadowing site를 이용해 다양한 영상 자료를 찾아 연습하면 더욱 좋습니다. 이렇게 하면 번역하는 시간을 줄이고, 영어의 자연스러운 구조를 익히며, 스피킹 실력을 빠르게 향상시킬 수 있습니다!

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.
