Pronúncia para ficar de olho
O falante usa 5 contrações e formas reduzidas, como I've, doesn't, I'll. Diga-as na forma curta, do jeito que você ouve.
- Os sons de “th”: thick /θɪk/, bother /ˈbɑðɚ/
- Os sons de “sh” e “zh”: imagination /ɪˌmæd͡ʒəˈneɪʃən/, shell /ʃɛl/, collocation /ˌkɑ.ləˈkeɪ.ʃən/, sociable /ˈsoʊʃəbəl/
- Palavras longas — acerte a sílaba tônica: imagination /ɪˌmæd͡ʒəˈneɪʃən/, superior /sʊˈpɪɹ.i.ɚ/, inferior /ɪnˈfɪɹ.i.ɚ/, superiority /sʊˌpɪə(ɹ).iˈɒ.ɹɪ.ti/, collocation /ˌkɑ.ləˈkeɪ.ʃən/
Sons difíceis para falantes de português:
- Consoante final — sem acrescentar um “i” depois: streak /stɹiːk/, thick /θɪk/, vivid /ˈvɪvɪd/, arrogant /ˈæɹəɡənt/, prank /pɹæŋk/
- /l/ final — a língua toca o céu da boca, não vira “u”: shell /ʃɛl/, loyal /ˈlɔɪəl/, reveal /ɹɪˈviːl/, sociable /ˈsoʊʃəbəl/
- /h/ — um sopro suave, diferente do “r”: humour /ˈhjuːmɚ/, humiliate /hjuːˈmɪliˌeɪt/

- Faça shadowing frase por frase na velocidade normal, repetindo cada uma até o seu ritmo ficar igual ao do falante.
- Grave a sua voz e compare com o original, prestando atenção a palavras como imagination, streak, lesson.
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
