Criando lição...
1
So one thing that really changed since I moved abroad and left everything behind is
2
almost every single day I'm waking up to beautiful weather It's like vitamin D is directly hitting your face
3
So recently I've been writing into a book a little just my thoughts what I think
4
and I'm trying to do this every day but I mean no one is perfect and yeah.
5
I mean I'm trying to do the best I can to just you know like do it
6
and keep going I mean some days I don't but just trying to
7
Now look at this.
8
I really see myself, I really do see myself in this kid.
9
I wish I was 14 only for once again.
10
So one thing I really do love is just taking walks and just doing nothing else.
11
enjoying nature, enjoying wherever you are.
12
The sun is shining into your face and no one is disturbing a piece
13
So this is art wonderful music could listen to this all day literally
14
So I'm still discovering how everything works here basically It's already two months since I've moved,
15
since I changed the country, since I've moved abroad.
16
And I'm in a mentally better state than I ever was, I think.
17
I had to change something about my life because I was never really happy at all.
18
And I was always in that race, in that path of trying to chase happiness,
19
of trying to chase peace, trying to chase something that was never really possible to chase at all.
20
And for me, basically the last two to three years, I never really felt comfortable,
21
I never really felt happy at all.
22
And I knew this wasn't really for me.
23
It's just a lot of things about Germany that didn't really make me happy.
24
It's just living for 22 years in the same city
25
and the same place and the same environment
26
and it's literally every single day is always the same and especially when you're working a job you hate
27
when you're coming home and the only thing you do is waiting until the next day begins.
28
And that's something I really don't like and I'd rather do that in a place I like,
29
with good weather, with sun, with great people, with people with a kind of different mindset.
30
And if there's one thing I could really recommend you, it's please don't work a job you hate.
31
Only because you're getting a little more money or whatever you get.
32
It's not even about the money.
33
But do something that makes you happy.
34
Work a job that makes you happy.
35
And also one of the most important things is you need to have good co-workers.
36
You have to work with good people around you.
37
If you don't have any good co-workers your job is only half as good as it is from my experience.
38
Being alone for a specific time and moving abroad will really change you in a way you'd never expect.
39
I'm going to get a job, but I'm going to get a job.
40
I'm going to get a job.
41
I'm going to get a job.
42
One of the best skills or one of the best things I've ever learned is that it doesn't bother me anymore, not even 1% to just go on solo dates
43
and doing things alone and I believe when you reach
44
that states that doing things alone gives you peace
45
and you don't need anyone around you you can you're just
46
able to do things alone is a skill everyone should learn
47
So recently I've been reading Tautostra from Nietzsche and what I can say is this guy really was someone.
48
For me it's really peaceful doing things alone.
49
No one is disturbing my peace and I can just do my own thing.
50
I'm so sorry for those cats.
51
If I could do something I would really take them all home with me but somehow I can't do nothing at all.
52
Well, at least they have some water and some food over there.
53
There are really a lot of cats I'm seeing on the streets lately, but...
54
Well...

Sobre esta lição
Nesta lição, você vai praticar a compreensão de um vídeo que fala sobre a importância de aprender a se divertir sozinho, mudanças de vida e busca por felicidade. Vamos trabalhar a escuta ativa, a pronúncia e a imitação da entonação, usando trechos do diálogo que misturam reflexões pessoais e dicas práticas. Além disso, você vai aprender a identificar expressões coloquiais e vocabulary relacionado a rotinas, emoções e autoconhecimento.
Vocabulário e frases chave
- Underrated skill: Habilidade subestimada. No vídeo, a fala sobre "learning to enjoy being alone is an underrated skill" significa que aprender a se divertir sozinho é uma habilidade que não é valorizada o suficiente.
- Vitamin D: Vitamina D. A expressão "vitamin D is directly hitting your face" descreve a sensação de sol no rosto, associada à vitamina D.
- Solo dates: Encontros sozinho. O autor fala em "go on solo dates" para se referir a fazer atividades sozinho, como passeios ou leitura.
- Disturbing my peace: Perturbando minha paz. Frase usada para descrever a interrupção da tranquilidade, como em "no one is disturbing my peace".
- Chase happiness: Procurar felicidade. A ideia de "chase happiness" é a busca contínua por felicidade, tema central no vídeo.
Dicas de prática
O vídeo tem uma velocidade moderada e um tom reflexivo, o que o torna ideal para o exercício de shadowing (imitação imediata). Aqui estão dicas específicas:
- Comece com trechos curtos: Selecione partes como "I'm in a mentally better state than I ever was" ou "doing things alone gives you peace" e repita cada frase 3-5 vezes, tentando igualar a entonação suave e a pausa natural do narrador.
- Atenção às pausas: O autor usa pausas para refletir, como após "I mean" ou "so". Imite essas pausas para melhorar a fluidez e a naturalidade da sua fala em inglês.
- Use a voz baixa: O tom calmoso do vídeo requer que você fale com volume controlado. Isso ajuda a praticar a articulação sem forçar a voz, essencial para conversas informais.
- Aprenda com os acentos: Palavras como "Nietzsche" ou "Tautostra" têm pronúncias específicas. Repita elas várias vezes, usando o vídeo como referência, para evitar erros com nomes próprios.
Praticar com vídeos como este é uma ótima forma de aprender inglês com vídeos e desenvolver a confiança para falar sozinho, além de melhorar a escuta. O shadowing em inglês (também chamado de shadow speak ou shadowspeaks) é uma técnica comprovada para aprimorar a pronúncia e a fluidez, então não hesite em dedicar tempo diário a ela.

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.
