1
Bye.
2
Thank you.
3
Jay, I love your videos, but I can't remember any of the words afterwards.
4
Science says we forget 50 % of what we learn within one hour.
5
That's it.
6
That's why you're forgetting everything.
7
Let me show you how to actually remember English words.
8
Most people practice words like this: and a week later...
9
They forget.
10
Everything.
11
That is the wrong way to repeat.
12
You're seeing the word, but you're not actively using it.
13
Here's how to practice active repetition.
14
Label your world.
15
Get some post -it notes.
16
Write the name of an object on them.
17
Stick it on.
18
Fridge.
19
Freezer.
20
Magnets.
21
This is a fridge magnet.
22
And I got it.
23
on a trip in Korea.
24
The reason why I can remember this word is because I'm connecting it to a memory.
25
something personal in my life.
26
Let me show you a few more egg -samples.
27
Shelf.
28
I like this shelf.
29
Vaz.
30
spatula Last night I used this spatula to flip veggie burgers in the pan.
31
By the way, veggie is short for vegetarian, Oh vegetable.
32
The next tip to remember words is to make them rhyme.
33
So-- This is a grater.
34
- Thank you.
35
And this is a...
36
giant block of cheese So, I would make a rhyme.
37
Greater.
38
Grater.
39
Help me, please.
40
Great, this giant block of cheese.
41
It's simple.
42
It's silly, but you will never forget it.
43
Now I've built a free resource on Sprout to help you guys with this.
44
Thank you.
45
Thank you.
46
Many of you have asked for a way to remember the vocabulary from my videos.
47
So, I've created an interactive vocabulary exercise for you.
48
By the way guys, this is free, so check it out, link in the description.
49
Let's click on the kitchen.
50
I want to know the difference between fridge and freezer.
51
I'll click on fridge.
52
I'm gonna click this button here, make it rhyme.
53
Okay, let's read out loud the rhyme.
54
The fridge is cold.
55
The fridge is tall.
56
It keeps my food fresh through it all.
57
OK, so a fridge is cold and it keeps my food fresh.
58
That makes sense?
59
Let's click Freezer.
60
Let's click Make it Rhyme.
61
The freezer's cold, The freeze is deep.
62
It keeps my ice cream safe to eat.
63
Okay.
64
So a freezer is cold too.
65
but it can store ice cream.
66
OK.
67
Now I know that the fridge is cold.
68
and it can keep my food fresh.
69
But the freezer is cold and deep, and it keeps my ice cream safe to eat.
70
These rhymes really help make the words Unforgettable.
71
Now, If you want to go a step further, to make these words even more unforgettable, then the fastest way to become fluent in English is to speak them out loud.
72
And it's to speak with someone who knows what you're talking about.
73
So I can click here to practice speaking in a real conversation with J .I.
74
That's me, but in AI form.
75
He sounds just like me and he knows exactly the way to help you guys become fluent in English.
76
I enjoyed making this tool.
77
And I hope you guys enjoy it.
78
So I'll leave a link in the description.
79
You can check it out for completely free.
80
Let me know in the comments.
81
What do you think of it?
82
Do you like it?
83
Do you not like it?
84
Can I improve it?
85
I would like to know your opinions.
86
Thank you.
87
So far, we've only remembered tangible words things that you can touch, and things that you can see.
88
like this figurine of peach.
89
This is a figurine.
90
Bye.
91
But, How do I remember words that I can't see and that I can't touch.
92
I remember these words by the language bridge.
93
This is a technique that I used to become fluent in Spanish.
94
And here's how it works.
95
You choose a word that you want to remember
96
You take sounds from that word and link them to words in your own mother tongue your own language.
97
Step three, You build a small story from those words.
98
Here's how it works.
99
I want to make it super clear so you can understand.
100
The word is nightmare.
101
Two parts.
102
Night.
103
Nah.
104
In Spanish, "night" sounds a bit like Naïf, which means naïve or innocent and mayor,
105
Well, to me, that's close to Madre which means mother.
106
Picture this.
107
A mother walks through the park with a baby.
108
A grandma comes to say hello, but the mother doesn't like it.
109
She turns from naive and innocent to a nightmare.
110
As you can see, this is a strange, weird exercise.
111
But once you create the image, once you use your imagination to create the image for that word, you will never forget it.
112
Let's look at another example with the Vietnamese language.
113
The word is suffering.
114
Three syllables.
115
So -f -f -e -ring.
116
In Vietnamese, so far.
117
That's a bowl of noodles. And ring.
118
That's like a bicycle bell.
119
Ring, ring, ring.
120
So I imagine an old lady who's holding a bowl of noodles.
121
A bicycle comes past.
122
Her bell rings and the bowl falls.
123
It spills everywhere.
124
The woman feels pain and suffering.
125
Your example will be different because your language is different.
126
But the process is the same.
127
Break the word into sounds.
128
Find those sounds in your language and then build a small but weird story.
129
That's it.
130
Some words in English are: Impossible.
131
DISPEL. is a cheat code.
132
Let's look at the word.
133
Rhythm.
134
Rhythm helps your two hips move.
135
Rhythm helps your two hips move.
136
You can see that the first letter of every word in that sentence spells out the word rhythm.
137
Rhythm helps your two hips move.
138
R -H -Y -T -H -N Rhythm.
139
The next one is for the word necessary.
140
Now this is necessary because that is a difficult word to spell.
141
Necessary.
142
What mnemonic can we use for that?
143
Never eat cake.
144
Eat salmon sandwiches and remain young.
145
One C, two S's salmon sandwiches.
146
For me, mnemonics go beyond English.
147
They are useful for life.
148
Let's take the directions on a compass, for example.
149
I remember it like this: Never Eat.
150
Soggy waffles.
151
North, East, South.
152
WEST.
153
No one wants to eat soggy waffles.
154
Now for the last tool and the most enjoyable one.
155
Our heartbeat has rhythm.
156
Our voice has melody.
157
And we all learned the alphabet from the alphabet song.
158
# A, B, C, D, E, F, G # H, I, J, K, L, M,
159
N, O, P # You never forgot it because it has melody.
160
The same thing works for any song that you Love.
161
What's one song that you love?
162
Let me know in the comments.
163
Now I'm gonna break down this song.
164
- Bye.
165
I am packing my bags, I am leaving.
166
Think I'm going to Paris.
167
Hoi, roi, roi I gotta get out of this god awful place That I used to call my home.
168
Maybe I'm going In that song, he said: "I gotta get out of this god -awful place.
169
I gotta get out of this god -awful place." Gotta is short for got to.
170
It means has to or must.
171
God awful is a fun phrase and it means Bad.
172
Terrible.
173
Awful.
174
I hope this video wasn't God.
175
Awful.
176
Jay, I love your videos.
177
But I still can't hold a real conversation.
178
- Thank you.

  • De klanken “sh” en “zh”: shelf /ʃɛlf/, repetition /ˌɹɛp.əˈtɪʃ.ən/, imagination /ɪˌmæd͡ʒəˈneɪʃən/
  • Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: unforgettable /ˌʌnfə(ɹ)ˈɡɛtəbəl/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, repetition /ˌɹɛp.əˈtɪʃ.ən/, vegetarian /vɛ.d͡ʒɪˈtɛ.ɹi.ən/, interactive /ˌɪn.tɚˈæk.tɪv/

  • Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: sandwich /ˈsæn(d).wɪd͡ʒ/, naive /naɪˈiv/, interactive /ˌɪn.tɚˈæk.tɪv/, freeze /ˈfɹiːz/, phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/
  • /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: spatula /ˈspætjʊlə/, alphabet /ˈæl.fəˌbɛt/, magnet /ˈmæɡ.nɪt/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, salmon /ˈsæmən/
  • /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: figurine /fɪɡ(j)əˈɹin/, grater /ˈɡɹeɪtɚ/, soggy /ˈsɑɡi/, unforgettable /ˌʌnfə(ɹ)ˈɡɛtəbəl/, magnet /ˈmæɡ.nɪt/

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.
