레슨 만드는 중...
1
Long ago, England was a land of country houses, palaces, gardens, and afternoon tea.
2
Every real gentleman had servants, especially a butler.
3
Just 70 years ago, there were tens of thousands of butlers in England.
4
Now, there are only a few.
5
So, where does one find a good butler nowadays?
6
The Ivor Spencer International School for Butler Administrators, of course.
7
Good evening, sir.
8
My name is Michael.
9
I'm your butler.
10
My name is Jose.
11
I'm your butler.
12
Could I bring you some refreshments, sir?
13
I'm your butler.
14
Good evening, sir.
15
It's the first day of class, and the students are learning how to introduce themselves to their gentleman or lady.
16
A proper butler must also learn to carry himself correctly.
17
There goes Mr. Wheaton.
18
Your champagne, my lady.
19
Your champagne, my lady.
20
No problem, sir.
21
No problem.
22
Butlers, I haven't seen a butler for a long time.
23
70 years ago, there were an estimated 30,000 butlers.
24
Today, there are fewer than 200.
25
But if Ivor Spencer has anything to say about it, that's going to change.
26
This is a to use his school to bring back the butler to this land of tradition.
27
Good morning everybody, welcome to the Ivor Spencer school.
28
We know you come from all over the world and we appreciate you being here.
29
Future butlers must learn how to use the correct titles to refer to ambassadors, kings, queens, and lords.
30
Over the next five weeks, 13 international students will have 86 lessons in the art of being a butler.
31
If they succeed, they may work for a businessman, an important leader, or even a king.
32
But first, they have to graduate.
33
Mr. Spencer says that some people can't even last longer than the first few days.
34
On every course there are about two people that don't make it past the first two days.
35
This may come true for one student in the new group, David Marceau.
36
Good morning, the Lee residence.
37
Practice makes perfect, so hopefully with a lot of practice I'll be just as good as any other butler out there.
38
I just hope I'm going to be right for the job, and hope I can do it.
39
It's important for students to keep their hopes up and practice, practice, practice.
40
It's a pleasure, sir.
41
The word butler comes from the French word boutier, which means bottle carrier.
42
For new butlers, this can be difficult.
43
No problem, sir.
44
No problem, sir.
45
It's a pleasure, sir.
46
No problem, sir.
47
No problem, sir.
48
Your champagne, my lady.
49
Your champagne, my lady.
50
Things go better for everyone this time.
51
It seems that all the practice is showing some results.
52
Even David Marceau is showing improvement.
53
It's on the floor, my lord.
54
Good evening, sir.
55
Good evening, sir.
56
By the third week, students start to find out if they really can become butlers or not.
57
I'm your butler.
58
It's very difficult here.
59
It's very difficult.
60
The course isn't easy at all.
61
Good evening, sir.
62
My name is David, and I'm your butler.
63
May I offer you some...
64
May I offer you some...
65
I have some problems and I have to deal with them.
66
Good evening, sir.
67
David is not just having difficulty with the course, he also misses his friends and family back home.
68
I miss my girlfriend very much.
69
She's giving me support on the phone.
70
I just talked to her last night and things are okay and everything.
71
Yes, I wish I was there right now.
72
There are a lot of secrets to being a good butler.
73
For example, did you know that you can iron a newspaper to make it look nice and avoid leaving ink everywhere?
74
Ivor Spencer does, and he teaches the class how to do it.
75
That's probably the only time the butler has to read the newspaper.
76
If you see a burnt newspaper, you know that the butler's very interested.
77
Sometimes, butlers need other unusual skills.
78
For example, they might need to deal with unwelcome guests.
79
These butlers will be ready.
80
Butlers must also learn how to recognize quality products, or the finer things in life, from the best tobacco pipes,
81
to expensive shoes, to, of course, champagne.
82
Santé! To Champagne.
83
Graduation day arrives.
84
David, you've come a low way.
85
We appreciate it.
86
Everyone gets their certificates, even David.
87
After, the students have a small party.
88
Good health, everybody.
89
I did it.
90
Before they came here, these young men and women drove buses, worked with computers, or worked in restaurants or stores.
91
Now, they are part of a very old English tradition.
92
The Iver Spencer School for Butler Administrators has done its job well.

맥락 및 배경

이 영상은 영국에서의 부유한 생활 방식과 과거로부터 현재까지의 관리자의 직업에 대한 내용을 다루고 있습니다. 특히, 관리자의 역할 중에서도 가장 상징적인 인물인 관리인에 대한 이야기를 통해 그들의 역사를 조명하고 있습니다. 70년 전, 영국에는 수많은 관리인이 있었지만 현재는 몇 안 남은 상황입니다. 이러한 전통을 되살리기 위해 아이보르 스펜서 국제 관리인 학교가 설립되었습니다. 학생들은 이곳에서 관리인으로서의 기본적인 매너와 커뮤니케이션 기술을 배우게 됩니다.

일상 대화를 위한 5가지 핵심 문구

  • Good evening, sir. (안녕하세요, 선생님.)
  • My name is Michael. I'm your butler. (제 이름은 마이클입니다. 저는 당신의 관리인입니다.)
  • Could I bring you some refreshments, sir? (음료를 가져다 드릴까요, 선생님?)
  • Your champagne, my lady. (여기 당신의 샴페인입니다, 마님.)
  • No problem, sir. (문제 없습니다, 선생님.)

단계별 섀도우잉 가이드

영어 발음을 향상하고 싶다면, 섀도우 스피크(shadowspeak) 또는 섀도우 스피치(shadow speech) 기법을 활용해 보세요. 이 영상에서 나오는 문구들을 따라 읽는 연습을 통해 자연스러운 발음을 익힐 수 있습니다. 다음은 단계별 접근 방법입니다:

  1. 몸을 편안하게 하고 영상을 집중하십시오. 모든 시청각 자료에 집중해 연습하고 싶습니다.
  2. 첫 번째 반복 시청: 처음에 관리인의 대사에 주목하세요. 매너와 억양에 집중합니다.
  3. 섀도우잉 연습: 각 문장을 들은 후 즉시 따라 발음해 보세요. 처음에는 천천히 하다가 점차 속도를 높입니다.
  4. 녹음 후 확인: 자신이 발음한 내용을 녹음한 후 원음과 비교하여 발음 차이를 찾아보세요.
  5. 반복 연습: 같은 방식으로 여러 번 반복하여 발음이 자연스러워질 때까지 계속 연습하세요.

끊임없는 연습이 중요합니다. 유튜브 영어 공부를 통해 이러한 방법을 실천하면서 영어 실력을 한층 더 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.
