Sometimes, but I never finish my work late.

477
I read my book about France. And you?

My favorite TV show was on television.
479
So you were able to watch your favorite show
480
and get a good night's sleep? because you finished all your work earlier during the day.
481
You didn't have to stay up all night like Alexei.
482
Yes, I hate having to work all night.
483
The morning is very hard for me when I don't get any sleep.
484
I know what you mean.
485
Not only are the mornings hard, but by the afternoon, all I want to do is sleep.
486
Hey, guys, here comes Alexei now.
487
Look, he does look terrible.
488
His eyes are all red, and it looks like he's been sleeping in those clothes.
489
Hi, everyone.
490
What are you talking about?
491
Is that you, Alexei?
492
Yes.
493
What do you mean?
494
It looks like you didn't get much sleep last night.
495
I was up till 3 a .m.

I get up at 7 for work, so it was a very short night.
497
Alexei, we all have lunch at noon.
498
What time do you have your lunch?
499
Well, my lunch break is at noon, too.
500
Great.

We can all eat together again.
502
What time is it now?
503
I'm starving.
504
Did you eat this morning?
505
No. I didn't have time.
506
My alarm goes off at 7, but that doesn't mean I always get up.
507
What time did you get up this morning?
508
It was almost 8 o 'clock.
509
But, Alexi, your work starts at 8 .30.
510
I know.
511
I didn't have breakfast this morning, and now you know why I look like I don't have fresh clothes on.
512
These are the same clothes I wore last night.
513
Alexi, here it is morning, and it looks like you should go home, take a shower, and start the day all over.
514
I know.
515
So what time is it?
516
I have bad news, Alexi.
517
It is only 10 .30, and lunch is still an hour and a half away.
518

Wat je leert in deze les
In deze video bouw je drie concrete vaardigheden op: je leert tijd op drie verschillende manieren te zeggen (bijv. "1:15", "a quarter past one" en "a quarter after one"), je leert wanneer je "o'clock" gebruikt (alleen bij hele uren, zoals "1 o'clock") en je leert termen als "quarter past", "half past" en "quarter to" te gebruiken. Dit helpt je om tijd natuurlijk te spreken, net als een native speaker!
Luister naar deze geluiden
Let op de verbonden spraak in de voorbeelden. Bijvoorbeeld, "it is a quarter past one" klinkt vaak als "it's a quarter past one" (met "it is" verkleind tot "it's"). Ook hoor je dat "o'clock" snel wordt gezegd, bijna als "o'clok". Let ook op de klinkers in "quarter" (de "a" klinkt als "aw") en "half" (de "a" klinkt als "ah"). Deze subtiele geluiden helpen je om de taal te begrijpen en te reproduceren.
Spreek het zoals een native
Om de rhythmiek en klemtoon te mirroren, let op de sterke en zachte delen in de zinnen. Bij "it is 9:30" of "half past nine" wordt de klemtoon op "9" en "half" gelegd. Bij "a quarter to 12" ligt de klemtoon op "quarter" en "12". Praat langzaam eerst, en probeer de tempo te verhogen naarmate je vertrouwd bent. Gebruik een shadowing app om na te sprekken: speel een fragment af, pauzeer en herhaal het direct. Dit helpt je om de natuurlijke flow te leren. Onthoud: oefening maakt de meester, en met schaduw spreken wordt het steeds makkelijker!
Leer engels met video's en maak gebruik van schaduwspreekt oefeningen om je vaardigheden te verbeteren. Elke keer dat je de video kijkt en meespreekt, word je beter in het zeggen van de tijd. Ga maar los – je kunt het!
Grammatica in deze video
De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:
| Structuur | In de video |
|---|---|
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — iets dat op een moment in het verleden bezig was | was looking · was working |
| Werkwoord + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — werkwoorden die door de -ing-vorm worden gevolgd | finish everything · hate having |
| Toekomst met “will” will + werkwoord — een besluit, belofte of voorspelling | we'll still use · We'll change · we'll use |
| Toekomst met “going to” be going to + werkwoord — een plan of iets dat je ziet aankomen | we're going to talk · we're going to do · We're going to see |
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.
