Your parents have something-- - Actually, I do have a story about mine.

- Let me hear it.
26
Well, the first time I got an agent, they thought my name-- How old were you?
27
That was about, Six years old, seven years old.
28
You get an agent at six years old.
29
Well, I tried to get an agent, but I didn't succeed because they wanted to change my name to Lenny Williams.
30
They thought my name was a little too ethnic, so they sort of dissected it and said, "Hey, Leonardo, Lenny." My middle name's Wilhelm, so they changed that to Williams.
31
Well, no, wait a minute.
32
Let's get back to your given name again.
33
Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio?

Yeah, that's my name.
35
Wow, that's a good one.
36
That's great.
37
Thanks.
38

Well, my mother's German and my dad's Italian.
40
There you go.
41
There's an answer for every story in this life.
42
All part of God's great plan, isn't it?
43
So, when you were six years old, how did you get into show business?
44
What were you...
45
You were just, like, going to school, to be in show business?
46
Well, the first time was actually on TV.
47
I was on TV at about three years old.
48
Have you ever seen Romper Room?
49
Are you kidding?
50
Try and keep me away from Romper Room.
51
Well, it was my favorite show at the time
52
and I just absolutely love the show and I used to sing the songs at home and everything.
53
Let's hear one.
54
And oh God.
55
Come on.
56
It's too far away.
57
I can't remember.
58
Come on, let's go, buddy.
59
So I went on Romper Room, right?
60
And I was completely excited.
61
They had a little circle, and they were all singing, dancing, and stuff like that.
62
But I was too excited to be on camera.
63
So I was running up and slapping the cameras and stuff like that, and screaming and looking inside the camera.
64
Tried to pull my mom on stage, and finally I was too much to handle, so they Completely kicked me off the shelf.
65
You were 86, you were tossed, you were adiosed.
66
I was adiosed.
67
And were you crestfallen?
68
You must have been crushed when you got bounced off Rumpa Rumpa Rumpa.
69
No, no, no. I SAW MYSELF ON TELEVISION.
70
I WAS JUST LIKE...
71
You went crazy.
72
Yeah, neurotic.
73
It was beautiful.
74
That happens to me almost every night right here.
75
Are you really that excited?
76
Yeah, I see.
77
Oh my God!
78
Um, I saw the film you did with Robert De Niro and Ellen Bark in This Boy's Life.
79
Mm -hmm.
80
That, you know, that was a great, I, and I guess, I, and forgive me if this is the wrong term, but it was a small sort of film.
81
It wasn't a huge budget with chase scenes and space, uh, uh...
82
Well, no. Made about eight million dollars, I think.
83
It was, uh...
84
But it was a very nice piece of work, is what I was trying to say.
85
Oh, well, thank you.
86
Based on a book.
87
And I thought that the interaction between you and De Niro was especially entertaining.
88
I mean, that was very interesting to watch.
89
Was it a good-- did you have a good relationship with him, with the film?
90
I did.
91
Bobby De Niro was great.
92
Ah, you called him Bobby.
93
There you go.
94
You're in show business now, pal.
95
Robert De Niro was great.
96
I remember a scene we were doing, actually, where he had his-- did you see the Zippo scene, where he's trying to, like, impress my mom, played by Ellen Barkin?
97
And Ellen found this so hilarious every time.
98
He's got something he does with the lighters.
99
Yeah, he pops it open and does his whole thing.
100
And Ellen, as soon as she saw Robert De Niro do this, she'd start cracking up immediately.
101
and the whole set was in hysterics.
102
And towards like the 25th take I got a little agitated, because I was usually one that was like, getting the laughs or on set.
103
So I stand up and I go, "You know, guys, can we be a little more professional here?
104
You're laughing all the time.
105
I've got things to do." I was a bit of a smart ass.
106
I was 16 years old.
107
I learned my lesson.
108
And Bob takes me aside and he goes, you know, - Thank you.
109
a certain line, you know, with jokes.
110
He goes, "You know, you shouldn't cross that line, 'cause sometimes you can't get back." You know?
111
That's right.
112
That's right.
113
So I sit there, and I come back in my chair, and my heart is, like, down.. down to my butt and I'm just sitting there.
114
Yeah.
115
Did I mess up?
116
And uh, 2K-- That's the reason you'll never be back on Romper Room.
117
It goes on your permanent record.
118
So two takes later, they nail the scene, and I never actually figured out if he was really angry with me or if he wanted to just change the tempo.
119
I have a feeling it was a little of both.
120
But he forgave me for it, actually, at the end.
121
-Good.
122
-He took me out, and, uh, we had a bunch of pies and stuff.
123
You talked about Romper Room and how you were tossed off and nearly arrested.
124
-Mm -hmm.
125
-Uh, and then...
126
-What was, like, your first legitimate acting role as a kid?
127
Did you want to be an actor, or did you folks just say, "Here?" I knew I wanted to be an actor for a long time, definitely.
128
My first dramatic, real drama was on the new Lassie.
129
-Uh -huh.
130
-And I think we have a clip of that.
131
But, uh, I remember that...
132
I'm supposed to be the one that tells the people -that we have the clips.
133
-Okay.
134
How would you know anything about our clip inventory?
135
-You take your time, absolutely.
136
-That's my responsibility.
137
-I don't appreciate anything.
138
-When we have a clip, I turn to the camera and I say, We got a clip, don't we?
139
Well, anyway, the funny thing about Lassie was-- -That, uh...
140
-We have a clip!
141
Lassie was actually a female dog.
142
Lassie is supposed to be a female dog.
143
Supposed to be a female, yeah, Lassie.
144
Yeah, Lassie, Laddie.
145
Laddie would be the male, Lassie's the female.
146
-Right.
147
-Yeah.
148
So they had five different dogs that were all guys to do the tricks, I guess, to...
149
We have five different polls.
150
Male dogs are smarter or something like that, right?
151
What did you say?
152
I don't know.
153
I don't know what they're doing.
154
What are you doing?
155
The male dogs are smarter?
156
Is that what you said?
157
I don't know.
158
That's supposedly one was for the tricks, one was for the expressions and this and that, right?
159
Right.
160
True.
161
So, uh, they had a big pregnancy scene where Lassie was giving puppies, and, uh, I first realized how fake the business-- That's hard for the guys.
162
We first realized how fake-- I first realized how fake the whole business was when they had to do the pregnancy scene, because they had to-- tape over Lassie's you know.
163
- It's some...
164
- You know, I know you're just a kid, but you possess a wisdom and a maturity, indescribable here.
165
That to tape over Lassie's...
166
special fur.
167
And I was sitting there.
168
Hey, hey, hey, this ain't romper room, okay?
169
I was a little shocked.
170
Yeah, I was a little disappointed, so...
171
Disappointed, were you?
172
Yeah.
173
Gosh, what aspect of that did you find disappointing?

Por que esse clipe é ótimo para praticar fala em inglês?
O diálogo entre Leonardo DiCaprio e o apresentador é perfeito para quem quer aprender inglês com YouTube. A linguagem é coloquial, os turnos de fala são naturais e a velocidade é acessível, ideal para treinar a escuta e a pronúncia. Além disso, as perguntas e respostas flúidas mostram como a conversa real funciona, o que ajuda a entender a intonação e a conexão entre as palavras — essenciais para se comunicar de forma autêntica.
Analisando frases chave: por que elas soam naturais
- "No, I don't do my taxes. My mom does them for me.": A contração "don't" e o uso de "them" para se referir a "taxes" são típicos no inglês falado. Isso evita repetição e deixa a frase mais leve.
- "Is mom reliable? My mom's very reliable.": A pergunta com "is" e a resposta curta mostram como a conversa flui sem complicações. O uso de "mom" em vez de "mother" também é característico do idioma coloquial.
- "Well, the first time I got an agent, they thought my name...": A palavra "well" é usada para começar uma explicação, o que é comum na fala cotidiana. Ela dá um toque de naturalidade e deixa a conversa mais humana.
Roteiro de prática: shadow speak para melhorar sua fala
O método shadow speak (ou shadowspeak) é uma excelente forma de treinar. Siga esses passos com o vídeo: 1) Assista o clipe uma vez para entender o contexto. 2) Repita cada frase imediatamente após ouvi-la, tentando copiar a intonação e a velocidade. 3) Grave sua voz e compare com o original — preste atenção a contrações e a conexão entre as palavras. 4) Repita o processo com trechos de 30 segundos, até que a fala fique mais fluida. Essa rotina ajuda a internalizar a estrutura do inglês falado e a ganhar confiança. Lembre: a prática diária com shadowspeaks é a chave para melhorar sua pronúncia e fluência.
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | were tossed · was adiosed · have been crushed |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | Have you filed · Have you ever seen |
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — uma ação em andamento em um momento do passado | was running · was trying · were doing |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — algo que está acontecendo agora ou nestes dias | Are you kidding · You're laughing · I'm just sitting |
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.
