Shadowing Practice: Cách săn Tây hiệu quả - Learn English Speaking with Video
Les maken...
1
The weather's kind of nice today.
2
I don't feel like making a video at home.
3
I'm going to head up to the lake to teach you guys how to successfully "hunt" Westerners in a fun and polite way.
4
In particular, I'm going to show you guys how to suggest topics more interesting than the usual questions you might ask: Where are you from?
5
How do you feel about Vietnam?
6
Are you married yet?
7
All right, before we start hunting foreigners, I want to suggest three rules for doing it.
8
First, when you "catch" someone, state clearly that you only want five or ten minutes of their time.
9
And you have to keep your promise.
10
When five or ten minutes have passed, you should say: If they don't mind, and would like to continue talking to you, they'll say: Okay, the second rule is to never, ever swarm around someone who's already been caught.
11
It's so tactless!
12
If you ask me, you shouldn't go with a group of friends, either.
13
Two people should be the maximum, and even better yet is going alone.
14
The third rule is that you should prepare before you go.
15
Think carefully about the questions you want to ask, and write them down.
16
Also, for each of your questions, try to think of two or three follow-up questions, so you can maintain the flow of the conversation.
17
And you should bring that paper along, so you don't forget.
18
Let's go hunt some Westerners.
19
First, I'm going to try to find people who've been in Vietnam for only a few days.
20
How long have you been in Vietnam?
21
About . . . how many hours?
22
You just arrived in Hanoi?
23
Yes. So you just got in yesterday?
24
This is my second day.
25
Great. Oh yeah?
26
Yeah. I really liked it because it's not quite as crazy and busy as other Asian cities.
27
For me it was the air, the clean air, because I came from Bangkok, and there was clean air here.
28
So you feel the air here is cleaner than Bangkok.
29
Yeah. I came in from Nepal, so I was pretty happy to actually be here.
30
Why's that?
31
Kathmandu is very dusty—it's beautiful there— but very dusty and dirty, so it was nice to have, like, road and pavers and sidewalks and stuff like that.
32
And lots of ladies holding lots of heavy things.
33
But not a lot of men.
34
I was surprised by how— everybody seemed very friendly. I felt like, uh . . .
35
Happy. Yeah, very happy, and . . .
36
I felt very comfortable here.
37
Very slowly.
38
-Just close your eyes and walk. -And calmly.
39
Yeah, with a lot of care.
40
If you want to ask about a price . . .
41
like, you know, you're buying something, if you want to say—literally it means "How much money?"— you can say, "Bao nhiêu tiền?" I would like to say "You're welcome." You can say, "Không có gì." Yeah, and that literally means, like, "It's nothing." Okay, perfect.
42
"Thank you" is "cảm ơn." Yeah, that was pretty good.
43
For your time in Hanoi, would you like any recommendations for food to try?
44
Well, yeah, that would be great.
45
The one thing that you definitely shouldn't miss in Hanoi is this one, bun cha.
46
We had that.
47
Oh, did you?
48
They've got, like, ground pork and pork belly grilled.
49
in sort of a saucy broth thing, along with noodles and vegetables, you kind of dip it all in there.
50
And so, this is, like, Hanoi's signature dish.
51
If you only have time for one of them, go for the first one, bun cha.
52
If you come to Hanoi and you don't eat bun cha, that's...
53
that's a crime.
54
And the best place for it, I think, and a lot of other people agree, is pretty close to here, if you kind of head up in that direction, on Hang Than street.
55
-Awesome, well thank you very much. -All right, well, take care, guys, I appreciate your time.
56
Take care. Have a nice afternoon.
57
Okay, next I'm going to look for people who've been here for about a week or longer.
58
So did you start down in Ho Chi Minh City?
59
Yeah. I'd say Ho Chi Minh City is a lot busier, you know?
60
It's much more manageable.
61
Hanoi? Yes.
62
Okay, why is that?
63
Saigon, it just seems much bigger.
64
The traffic is so chaotic it's hard to even get out and walk around on the street.
65
We like Hanoi more.
66
-Yeah, we think there's too many scooters and traffic and chaos . . . -In Ho Chi Minh— And we really like this area where they can't drive scooters and stuff.
67
So, I mean, I like them both.
68
I think Saigon seems much more like a bigger, busier city than Hanoi does.
69
In your time in Vietnam, have you eaten anything very memorable, either for good or bad reasons?
70
And we just tried egg coffee.
71
Yeah, that was fun also.
72
We had a memorable—the duck embryo.
73
You went for it?
74
We did. We ate part of it.
75
Actually, we had sticky rice, which I did not like at all.
76
Have you seen anything out on the street, like activities or rituals, that you didn't really understand what was going on, and you wanted some explanation?
77
I was interested in why there are so many people that look like they're getting married walking down the street today.
78
That's a good question. Well, some of them might be getting married.
79
It's common to take wedding photos up in this area, and when they take wedding photos, they wear . . .
80
like, they wear the wedding dress and everything.
81
Yeah, we've been one month in the Philippines.
82
And then one week in Cambodia.
83
Well, Thailand's quite different altogether.
84
How so? -A lot more developed. -Lot more tourism.
85
Well, I think the Philippines people was very, very friendly.
86
It's a bit different here.
87
I think some people are really sweet and very welcoming, and then there's also some bus drivers who was a bit rough.
88
Not to stress about planning anything.
89
Do it. Yeah, do it, and visit Hoi An and Ha Long Bay . . .
90
I think I would tell people it seems really safe.
91
-But we would definitely recommend going here. -Yeah, going to Vietnam.
92
I'd say definitely come.
93
Thanks a lot for your time. I appreciate it.
94
Okay, now I'm going to see if there's anyone here who's living in Vietnam.
95
I've been living here for four years. How long have you been here?
96
It's coming up on two years.
97
Seven months now.
98
-Anything? -Not much.
99
Not much. Mainly family.
100
Other than family and friends, but . . .
101
I really like the culture here, and it suits me a lot better than England.
102
I did. I started a class, but I got pulled away for other things.
103
I'm trying to learn the language, which is why I recognized you.
104
-Oh, yeah, from YouTube. -Yeah, because I was watching your videos last week.
105
Six tones. As opposed to Chinese, which was four.
106
I mean, if you could.
107
I genuinely can't think of much.
108
Just one thing.
109
You know, that takes away from the character.
110
You would just, you would keep it the way it is?
111
-I mean, no, if that's the way you feel about it, then . . . -I think so, yeah, because, . . .
112
everywhere has got its positives and negatives. Obviously Hanoi's got some negatives . . .
113
that I can't think of right now.
114
I don't want to change anything.
115
I just want to be experiencing what's here.
116
Okay, that's a good answer.

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.
