1
Hello, my fellow Americans and the people who brought me to dance, Delawareans.
2
I see my buddy Senator Tom Carper down there and I think Senator Coons is there and I think the governor’s around.
3
Is that Ruth Ann?
4
Yes, it is!
5
And now former governor Ruth Ann Minner.
6
Most importantly, my sisters-in-law and my sister Valerie.
7
Anyway, folks, the people of this nation have spoken.
8
They’ve delivered us a clear victory, a convincing victory, a victory for we the people.
9
We’ve won with the most votes ever cast for a presidential ticket in the history of the nation, 74 million.
10
Well, I must admit it surprised me.
11
Tonight, we’ve seen all over this nation, all cities in all parts of the country, indeed across the world, an outpouring of joy, of hope, renewed faith, and tomorrow bring a better day.
12
I’m humbled by the trust and confidence you’ve placed in me.
13
I pledge to be a president who seeks not to divide but unify, who doesn’t see red states and blue states, only sees the United States, and work with all my heart, with the confidence of the whole people, to win the confidence of all of you.
14
For that is what America, I believe, is about.
15
It’s about people.
16
And that’s what our administration will be all about.
17
I sought this office to restore the soul of America, to rebuild the backbone of this nation, the middle class, and to make America respected around the world again and to unite us here at home.
18
It’s the honor of my lifetime that so many millions of Americans have voted for that vision.
19
Now the work of making that vision is real.
20
It’s a task, the task, of our time.
21
Folks, as I said many times before, I’m Jill’s husband, and I would not be here without her love and tireless support of Jill, and my son Hunter and Ashley, my daughter, and all our grandchildren and their spouses and all our family.
22
They’re in my heart.
23
Jill’s a mom, a military mom, an educator.
24
She’s dedicated her life to education.
25
But teaching isn’t just what she does.
26
It’s who she is.
27
For American educators, this is a great day for you all.
28
You’re going to have one of your own in the White House.
29
Jill’s going to make a great First Lady.
30
I’m so proud of her.
31
I’ll have the honor of serving with a fantastic vice president.
32
You just heard from Kamala Harris, who makes history as the first woman, first Black woman, the first woman from South Asian descent, the first daughter of immigrants ever elected in this country.
33
Don’t tell me it’s not possible in the United States.
34
It’s long overdue.
35
We’re reminded tonight of those who fought so hard for so many years to make this happen.
36
But once again, America’s bent the arc of the moral universe, more toward justice.
37
Kamala, Doug, like it or not, you’re family.
38
You’ve become an honorary Biden.
39
There’s no way out.
40
To all those of you who volunteered and worked the polls in the middle of this pandemic, local elected officials, you deserve a special thanks from the entire nation.
41
To my campaign team and all the volunteers, and all who gave so much of themselves to make this moment possible, I owe you.
42
I owe you. I owe you everything.
43
All those who supported us, I’m proud of the campaign we built and ran.
44
I’m proud of the coalition we put together, the broadest and most diverse coalition in history.
45
Democrats, Republicans, independents, progressives, moderates, conservatives, young, old, urban, suburban, rural, gay, straight, transgender, white, Latino, Asian, Native American.
46
I mean it, especially in those moments and especially for those moments when this campaign was at its lowest ebb, the African American community stood up again for me.
47
You’ve always had my back, and I’ll have yours.
48
I said at the outset I wanted this campaign to represent and look like America.
49
We’ve done that.
50
Now that’s what I want the administration to look like and act like.
51
For all those of you who voted for President Trump, I understand the disappointment tonight.
52
I’ve lost a couple of times myself.
53
But now let’s give each other a chance.
54
It’s time to put away the harsh rhetoric, lower the temperature, see each other again, listen to each other again.
55
To make progress, we have to stop treating our opponents as our enemies.
56
They are not our enemies.
57
They’re Americans.
58
They’re Americans.
59
The Bible tells us to everything, there’s a season, a time to build, a time to reap and a time to sow, and a time to heal.
60
This is the time to heal in America.
61
Now this campaign is over, what is the will of people?
62
What is our mandate?
63
I believe it’s this: American have called upon us to marshal the forces of decency, the forces of fairness, to marshal the forces of science and the forces of hope in the great battles of our time, the battle to control the virus, the battle to build prosperity, the battle to secure your family’s healthcare, the battle to achieve racial justice and root out systemic racism in this country.
64
And the battle to save our planet by getting climate under control.
65
The battle to restore decency, defend democracy, and give everybody in this country a fair shot.
66
That’s all they’re asking for: a fair shot.
67
Folks, our work begins with getting COVID under control.
68
We cannot repair the economy, restore our vitality, or relish life’s most precious moments, hugging our grandchildren, our children on our birthdays, weddings, graduations, all the moments that matter most to us until we get it under control.
69
On Monday, I will name a group of leading scientists and experts as transition advisors, to help take the Biden-Harris COVID plan and convert it into an action blueprint that will start on January the 20th, 2021.
70
That plan will be built on bedrock science.
71
It will be constructed out of compassion, empathy, and concern.
72
I will spare no effort, none, or any commitment to turn around this pandemic.
73
Folks, I’m a proud Democrat, but I will govern as an American president.
74
I’ll work as hard for those who didn’t vote for me as those who did.
75
Let this grim era of demonization in America begin to end here and now.
76
The refusal of Democrats and Republicans to cooperate with one another is not some mysterious force beyond our control, it’s a decision, a choice we make.
77
If we can decide not to cooperate, then we can decide to cooperate.
78
I believe that this is part of the mandate given to us from the American people.
79
They want us to cooperate in their interests, and that’s the choice I’ll make.
80
I’ll call on Congress, Democrats and Republicans alike, to make that choice with me.
81
The American story is about slow yet steadily widening the opportunities in America.
82
Make no mistake, too many dreams have been deferred for too long.
83
We must make the promise of the country real for everybody, no matter their race, their ethnicity, their faith, their identity, or their disability.
84
Folks, America has always been shaped by inflection points by moments in time where we’ve made hard decisions about who we are and what we want to be: Lincoln in 1860 coming to save the union, FDR in 1932 promising a beleaguered country a new deal, JFK in 1960 pledging a new frontier, and 12 years ago when Barack Obama made history and told us, yes, we can.
85
Well, folks, we stand at an inflection point.
86
We have an opportunity to defeat despair, to build a nation of prosperity and purpose.
87
We can do it.
88
I know we can.
89
I’ve long talked about the battle for the soul of America.
90
We must restore the soul of America.
91
Our nation is shaped by the constant battle between our better angels and our darkest impulses, and what presidents say in this battle matters.
92
It’s time for our better angels to prevail.
93
Tonight, the whole world is watching America, and I believe, at our best, America is a beacon for the globe.
94
We will lead not only by the example of our power, but by the power of our example.
95
I know I’ve always believed, and many of you heard me say it, I’ve always believed we can define America in one word: possibilities.
96
That in America everyone should be given an opportunity to go as far as their dreams and God-given ability will take them.
97
You see, I believe in the possibilities of this country.
98
We’re always looking ahead, ahead to an America that’s freer and more just, ahead to an America that creates jobs with dignity and respect, ahead to an America that cures diseases like cancer and Alzheimer’s, ahead to an America that never leaves anyone behind, ahead to an America that never gives up, never gives in.
99
This is a great nation.
100
It’s always been a bad bet to bet against America.
101
We’re good people.
102
This is the United States of America.
103
There’s never been anything, never been anything, we’ve been not able to do when we’ve done it together.
104
Folks, in the last days of the campaign, I began thinking about a hymn that means a lot to me and my family, particularly my deceased son, Beau.
105
It captures the faith that sustains me and which I believe sustains America.
106
I hope, and I hope, we can provide some comfort and solace to the 230,000 Americans who’ve lost a loved one due to this terrible virus this year.
107
My heart goes out to each and every one of you.
108
Hopefully this hymn gives you solace as well.
109
It goes like this.
110
“And he will raise you up on eagle’s wings, bear you on the breath of dawn, and make you just shine like the sun, and hold you in the palm of His hand.” Now together on eagle’s wings, we embark on the work that God and history have called upon us to do.
111
With full hearts and steady hands, with faith in America and in each other, with love of country, a thirst for justice, let us be the nation that we know we can be, a nation united, a nation strengthened, a nation healed, the United States of America.
112
Ladies and gentlemen, there’s never, never, been anything we’ve tried we’ve not been able to do.
113
Remember, as my grandpappy said when I walked out of his home, when I was a kid up in Scranton, he said, “Joey, keep the faith.” And our grandmother, when she was alive, she yelled, “No, Joey.
114
Spread it.” Spread the faith.
115
God love you all.
116
May God bless America and may God protect our troops.
117
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Por que praticar a fala com este vídeo?
Praticar a conversação em inglês com discursos como o de Joe Biden oferece uma oportunidade única de mergulhar em um contexto real e inspirador. Neste vídeo, Biden expressa não apenas suas ideias, mas também suas emoções, o que é fundamental para aprendermos a nuances da língua. Ao ouvir líderes falando, você pode captar novas expressões, entonações e a forma como as pausas são utilizadas para dar ênfase. Essa prática ajuda a melhorar não apenas a fluência, mas também a confiança ao falar. Ao integrar prática de conversação em inglês a partir de vídeos, você pode replicar o que ouviu, um método conhecido como shadowing em inglês, que envolve imitar a fala do falante nativo para aprimorar a pronúncia e a entonação.
Gramática e Expressões em Contexto
No discurso de Biden, ele utiliza várias estruturas gramaticais e expressões que são extremamente úteis. Vamos analisar algumas:
- "The people of this nation have spoken." - Uma ótima forma de apresentar resultados de forma assertiva. Aqui, ele utiliza o presente perfeito para indicar que a ação tem relevância no presente.
- "I pledge to be a president who seeks not to divide but unify." - A construção 'who seeks not to...' é uma maneira elegante de expressar intenções e propósitos. Essa subtileza pode ser difícil de traduzir diretamente, mas é um recurso valioso na fala formal.
- "The honor of my lifetime." - Expressões superlativas como esta são comuns em discursos e transmitem um grande peso emocional, indicado por 'lifetime' que dá uma ideia de gravidade à honra recebida.
Aprender inglês com YouTube é uma maneira eficaz de explorar essas estruturas em um contexto envolvente e realista.
Armadilhas Comuns de Pronúncia
Existem algumas palavras e expressões no discurso que podem apresentar desafios de pronúncia, especialmente para falantes não nativos:
- "America" (América) - A tonicidade da palavra pode ser difícil; a sílaba correta é a segunda, e a pronúncia deve evitar a transformação do 'c' em um som de 's'.
- "Unity" (unidade) - A vogal precisa ser clara, e a 't' deve ser pronunciada de forma suave para manter o ritmo da fala.
- "Diversity" (diversidade) - Essa palavra pode parecer simples, mas a combinação de sons pode ser traiçoeira; ajudar a praticar com shadow speak pode ser muito benéfico.
Usar o método de tomar notas e depois repetir o que ouviu em voz alta é uma ótima maneira de fortalecer sua habilidade de pronúncia, um componente essencial da prática de conversação em inglês.
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.
