| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — iets dat nu of in deze periode gebeurt | I'm starving · You're not just speaking |
Uitspraak om op te letten
De spreker gebruikt 17 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals don't, I'm, you're. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.
- De klanken “sh” en “zh”: examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, imagination /ɪˌmæd͡ʒəˈneɪʃən/
- Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: naturally /ˈnæt͡ʃ.(ə.)ɹə.li/, complicated /ˈkɑm.plɪˌkeɪ.tɪd/, intelligent /ɪnˈtɛlɪd͡ʒənt/, examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, imagination /ɪˌmæd͡ʒəˈneɪʃən/
Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: complicated /ˈkɑm.plɪˌkeɪ.tɪd/, engage /ɪnˈɡeɪd͡ʒ/, phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/, upgrade /əpˈɡɹeɪd/, subscribe /səbˈskɹaɪb/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/, transform /tɹænsˈfɔɹm/, naturally /ˈnæt͡ʃ.(ə.)ɹə.li/, examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, habit /ˈhæb.ɪt/
- /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/, hungry /ˈhʌŋ.ɡɹi/, engage /ɪnˈɡeɪd͡ʒ/, examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, upgrade /əpˈɡɹeɪd/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Spreek zin voor zin na op normale snelheid en herhaal elke zin tot je ritme gelijk is aan dat van de spreker.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als connect, grammar, fluent.
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
