seventh adjetivo/ˈsɛvənθ/sétimo
adoption substantivo/əˈdɑp.ʃən/adoção

Pronúncia para ficar de olho

  • Os sons de “th”: sixth /sɪksθ/, seventh /ˈsɛvənθ/, rethink /ɹiːˈθɪŋk/
  • Os sons de “sh” e “zh”: capture /ˈkæp.(t)ʃɚ/, efficiency /ɪˈfɪʃ.ən.si/, regulation /ˌɹɛɡjʊˈleɪʃən/, execution /ˌɛk.sɪˈkjuː.ʃən/, adoption /əˈdɑp.ʃən/
  • Palavras longas — acerte a sílaba tônica: productivity /ˌpɹɒdʌkˈtɪvəti/, infrastructure /ˈɪnfɹəˌstɹʌkt͡ʃə/, efficiency /ɪˈfɪʃ.ən.si/, regulation /ˌɹɛɡjʊˈleɪʃən/, execution /ˌɛk.sɪˈkjuː.ʃən/

Sons difíceis para falantes de português:

  • Consoante final — sem acrescentar um “i” depois: pocket /ˈpɑ.kɪt/, boost /buːst/, expand /ɪkˈspænd/, framework /ˈfɹeɪm.wɜːk/, slip /ˈslɪp/
  • /l/ final — a língua toca o céu da boca, não vira “u”: radical /ˈɹædɪkəl/, contractual /kənˈtɹæk.t͡ʃ(u)əl/
  • s + consoante no início — sem um “i” antes: slip /ˈslɪp/, standardization /ˌstæn.də.daɪˈzeɪ.ʃən/

  2. Faça shadowing frase por frase na velocidade normal, repetindo cada uma até o seu ritmo ficar igual ao do falante.
  3. Grave a sua voz e compare com o original, prestando atenção a palavras como productivity, pocket, infrastructure.

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.
