1
We're Alpha Blocks, we're Number Blocks, together we can make friends.
2
We're Alpha Blocks, we're Number Blocks, the magic never ends.
3
Time to think outside the box, the fans all hear this Number Rocks!
4
Job and the fun, together as one, the Alpha Number Blocks!
5
It's the superhero team-up you've all been waiting for!
6
The incredible Octoblock!
7
And the exciting X! together at last in...
8
Crossover!
9
In the Numberland Stadium, Eleven prepares to take a penalty.
10
But at that very moment, somewhere in Alpha-land...
11
Kay kicks the ball.
12
He shoots!
13
Suddenly...
14
He scores?
15
Goal!
16
Wait, what?
17
Alpha blocks and number blocks switching places?
18
There's only one hero who can sort this out.
19
The exciting X!
20
All right, then.
21
There are only two heroes who can sort this out.
22
An alpha block here in Numberland.
23
Hmm, they must have used the magic home mirror to travel here.
24
But where is it?
25
Magic home mirror not detected.
26
But I am detecting more alpha blocks.
27
We three are the three...
28
...tees.
29
That's cool!
30
Confusing!
31
Someone is switching number blocks with alpha blocks.
32
This feels like the work of Octo-Naughty.
33
But that naughty number is no longer in Numberland.
34
And now I've stolen the magic home mirror, I'm in charge.
35
Who can travel between Alpha-land and Numberland?
36
Mwahahahaha!
37
Time for our...
38
T-U-I-P...
39
Trip!
40
Tipi-Cru!
41

42

43
I! P!
44
R!
45
R!
46
I! P!
47
Rip!
48

49
R!
50
I! Huh?
51
Rrr!
52
Ehh!
53
RIP!
54
Whoa!
55
Err!
56
Ehh!
57
We need help extremely quickly! Did somebody say X?
58
Extraordinary!
59
How did you get here? get here I haven't a clue I was racing 24 on the race track
60
and zap here I am and I think I saw T disappear you've been exchanged 20
61

62
so serious Oh Oh Oh T I'll take it from here
63
you look a little cross maybe you should
64
cross over welcome to number land friend hello chums
65
lovely racing weather I can keep this up all day and all right octo naughty the game is up I'm not Octo-naughty!
66
Octo-block, draw!
67
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, draw!
68
Stop!
69
This is Octo-naughty!
70
You're right.
71
Extremely sorry.
72
Octo-naughty tricked me.
73
He's using the magic home mirror to switch alpha blocks with number blocks.
74
As I suspected.
75
3 and C, 11 and K, 20 and T, and now 24 and X.
76
But why those numbers with those letters?
77
There must be an explanation.
78
What say we...
79
Team up and save the day?
80
I like your style.
81
To the Octocave!
82
Let's see if we can spot a pattern in these crossovers.
83
N and K both like football.
84
But what has T got in common with 20?
85
We're missing something.
86
We're missing out lots of numbers for a start.
87
Maybe it will help if we add them in. So many blank spaces.
88
We'll never work it out.
89
Have patience, my excellent friend.
90
I expect when we get the explanation, it will be as obvious as ABC.
91
A, B, C!
92
C is the third letter of the alphabet.
93
And C swapped with three.
94
What about K?
95
K swapped with 11.
96
Is K the 11th letter?
97
A, 1, B, 2, C, 3, D, 4, E, 5,
98
F, 6, G, 7, H 8,
99
I 9, J 10, K 11, T 20, X 24.
100
They all match up.
101
Octonauti is swapping alpha blocks with the number block whose number is their position in the alphabet.
102
So you've cracked my little code.
103
Boo hoo!
104
Well, I don't care.
105
I'm safe here in Alpha Land.
106
And without the magic hole mirror, you two do-gooders are stuck in Numberland.
107
No superheroes means nobody to stop me.
108
Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!
109
This looks extremely bad.
110
He's right.
111
Without me, there are no superheroes in Alpha-land.
112
But there is another superhero in Numberland.
113
27!
114
She's a super cube, like me.
115
Octoblock, cube!
116
Two by two by two!
117
27 is three by three by three.
118
Her cube powers are...
119
exceptional!
120
So if we can trick Octonauty into taking 27 to Alpha Land...
121
She will soon end his game!
122
Octocomputer, what's the 27th letter of the alphabet?
123
Error!
124
There are only 26 letters in the alphabet.
125
Exclamation mark!
126
He's one step ahead of us again!
127
One step ahead of 26?
128
There are 26 alpha blocks, but 26 plus 1...
129
...is 27!
130
We need to get a message to A and Z.
131
The Octosignal!
132
W-Wake up, my friends!
133
There's a message for you.
134
A signal?
135
What does that say?
136
Zoom in, zebras.
137
Zed-blash-a.
138
It must be from Octoblock and X.
139
They want the two of you to go after Octonauty.
140
We can't be their first choice.
141
So we must be their last chance.
142
I'm going to have so much fun with no superheroes to stop me.
143
Ahem!
144
Allow us to introduce ourselves.
145
We're A to Z, and we're coming to get you!
146
Is that the best you can do?
147
Bye!
148
No one in the world can stop me now!
149
No one?
150
We might have something to add to that.
151
26 plus 1 equals...
152
No!
153
27!
154
Give it up, Octonauty!
155
Never!
156
If I can bring you here, I can send you back!
157
You're forgetting.
158
There's no 27th letter for me to switch with.
159
Oh.
160
Time for a swift get-a-whirl!
161
I don't like the look of that.
162
By the power of...
163
Green, die, assurance!
164
We've got you surrounded!
165
Not quite!
166
Anywhere's better than here!
167
Excellent work, Cube Crusader!
168
And with the magic home mirror back to normal, Alpha Land and Number Land were soon put back in order.
169
As for Octonati, nobody was sure where he ended up, only that it was somewhere he couldn't get up to mischief again again.
170
Until the next time!

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.
