Hello and welcome back to Pronunciation with Emma, or welcome if you're brand new to my channel.
2
Today I have a shadowing exercise planned for you.
3
I have over 50 different sentences planned, and each of them contain a difficult combination of sounds.
4
So to get the full benefit of this video, please ensure that you are in a quiet place where you can listen and repeat.

20
Now it's time to do some shadowing.
21
So there are a number of different techniques that you can use and let me share four of them with you here.
22
The first technique is that you listen, you read, you pause and then you repeat.
23
The second technique, you don't read, you only listen, pause and repeat.
24
The third technique is you read it and you try and repeat at exactly the same time as me.
25
And then the fourth one is that you don't read
26
but you listen and you try and repeat at the same time as me.
27
Number four is quite tricky but it is doable.
28
So choose your favourite shadowing technique and we will begin with the first tricky combination.

|---|---|
| Mogelijkheid met “might / may” might/may + werkwoord — iets is mogelijk maar niet zeker | might run |

Uitspraak om op te letten
De spreker gebruikt 8 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals don't, I'm, you're. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.
- De “th”-klanken: loathe /ˈloʊð/, beth /bɛθ/, warmth /wɔɹmθ/, thief /ˈθiːf/, tooth /tuθ/
- Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: combinations /kɑmbɪˈneɪʃənz/, availability /əˌveɪ.ləˈbɪl.ɪ.ti/, communicate /kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪt/
Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: memorize /ˈmɛm.əˌɹaɪ̯z/, humid /ˈhjuːmɪd/, pause /pɔːz/, freeze /ˈfɹiːz/, nerve /nɝv/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: flatmate /ˈflætmeɪt/, grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/
- /w/ — met ronde lippen: warmth /wɔɹmθ/, homework /ˈhoʊmˌwɝk/
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 loathe, cosy, flatmate.
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.
