1
how to sound more natural next time
2
that we speak in american english well one thing
3
you may be wanting to pay attention to is the length of your thought groups
4
if you don't know what thought groups are thought groups are groups of words
5
that go together before your next group of words
6
and one of the things i commonly see among my students is
7
that we are consistently using shorter thought groups and
8
that is not enabling us to achieve the most natural sound in all situations
9
we're going to be talking more about thought groups
10
when we give feedback to this audio file right here by the way
11
i try my best to be in touch with you by
12
the youtube good morning good evening good afternoon guys welcome to the schwa milton
13
this is your american english pronunciation review show where you can
14
send files to me to get some feedback for free
15
there's a link to the telegram group where we do it right in the video description
16
and in the chat
17
and to guide you in this process
18
there is me what's up guys my name is jeff at riser breath
19
that's one of the four keys you need to sound natural in american english including placement pitch breath
20
and trying to weaken your constant sounds
21
or strengthen your foul sounds a quick update before we give feedback for this file is
22
that this week is the start of our conversation speaking in reading club
23
which is led by our facilitator shea sanchez she's going to be guiding you in the conversation based exercises
24
if you are a member of the pocket full american app
25
so in case you don't know we have an application on your phone
26
or on your computer that you can access to get daily pronunciation shadowing exercises
27
and lots of other information that is not strictly available on the channels
28
if that sounds like something you'd be interested in you want to join the conversation club
29
which again meets on tuesday
30
and thursday mornings new york time from 7 to 7 30 a .m you want to get practice with
31
that and all the other elements
32
that are on the application to reach your american english pronunciation goals
33
you can find more information about the app at fluentamerican .com
34
if you already have the app so definitely try to check out
35
because shay is excited to speak with you but
36
when i'm listening to this audio file right here by the way
37
i try my best to being in touch with you by the youtube okay
38
there's a little grammar thing i do want to just highlight here
39
and by the way thanks to everyone who sends files
40
so this is more or less the the thought groups
41
that i'm hearing see
42
if you can hear this chunking as well yourself by the way
43
I try my best to be in touch with you by the YouTube.
44
Okay
45
so that's the chunking I'm hearing quick note at the end instead of by the YouTube
46
I would say on YouTube try to get in touch with you
47
on something I try to get with in touch with you on your website okay
48
I try to get in touch with you on Instagram I try to get in touch with you on YouTube.
49
So one of the things we see here is
50
that we basically have these sequences where
51
that first talk group is three syllables three words by the way
52
this next thought group is four syllables i try my best the next syllable i'd be in touch with you
53
so that time we have six
54
and then we have by the youtube i'm going to change
55
that to on youtube just to be more grammatical um
56
so again three syllables there it's more or less three
57
or four syllables each thought group with the exception of
58
that one which is fine you can make
59
that work how do you make it work
60
if you have shorter thought groups well a couple of real basic concepts you want to have in mind
61
when you're talking is that
62
when you change thought group
63
you want to change the pitch levels are we changing the pitch levels in our original audio by the way
64
i try my best to be in touch with you by the youtube kind of what's happening here
65
that's causing this sound less natural is we're just alternating
66
we start off by the way
67
i try my best to be we start off low like by the way
68
then we go hi i try my best then we go down again to be in touch with you
69
and then we go hi again bye to youtube this is like by the way
70
so we're just alternating pitches and english in general is not going to try to do
71
that it's good that we have pitch movement
72
but i would say try to move further in a single direction
73
so like you could do like a descending pattern like like by the way
74
i try my best to be in touch with you on youtube that'd be an example of a descending pattern
75
there's also ascending patterns like by the way
76
i try my best to be in touch with you on
77
youtube that'd be an example of an ascending pattern everything's gradually going up
78
or you could start off descending a bit
79
so like maybe starting a little lower it's like by the way
80
then go high i try my best to be in touch
81
with you on youtube that'd be an example of starting low then going high
82
and then descending again whatever pattern
83
you use just try not to be overly predictable in a
84
lot of ways formulaic just like high low high low high English doesn't really like
85
that okay some other things with the thought groups
86
that are hurting this by the way I try my best to be in touch with you by the YouTube
87
a lot of our stresses are also falling in very similar
88
places each time like i try my best stress on try
89
to be in touch with you middle stress on youtube middle stress okay
90
so a lot of times what's happening is we have three thought groups in a row
91
there have stress fall in the middle of the thought group
92
if we can change some of those stress locations so like like
93
by the way stress by i try my best it's like by the way i try my best
94
so notice that's an initial stress then a final stress by the way
95
i try my best to be in touch with you another final stress on youtube
96
it's like by the way i try my best to be in touch with you on youtube
97
that has greater contrast in terms of stresses some of the
98
stresses are at the start of the thought group some of the stresses are at the end and
99
that sort of variety can help this to sound more natural
100
too instead of just having all the stresses fall at the same position over and over again.
101
By the way I try my best to be in touch with you by the YouTube.
102
The last thing I will say is
103
that we can also mix up some of these thought group planks
104
and you can do this with any sort of phrase
105
that you want okay this is what we have right now
106
so by the way thought group
107
I try my best thought group to be in touch with you thought group on YouTube what happens for instance
108
if we start short it's like by the way then our next soccer what
109
if we do that as I try my best to be in touch with you
110
a long thought group on YouTube see
111
if you can hear a difference between these two rhythms okay we're going to start off with the original
112
and then we'll try it with a short thought group a long thought group, and a short thought group.
113
See if you can hear a difference.
114
By the way, I try my best to be in touch with you on YouTube.
115
Second one.
116
By the way, I try my best to be in touch with you on YouTube.
117
Do you hear a difference between those?
118
By the way, I try my best to be in touch with you on YouTube.
119
By the way, I try my best to be in touch with you on YouTube to.
120
The second one is going to allow you in general to flow quite a bit more
121
because that second thought group is much, much longer and the stress comes much later.
122
So if you're looking at your own speech and you're feeling like, huh, I feel like I'm really choppy.
123
I feel like I'm talking word, word, word, word, word.
124
I don't think I sound very fluent or fluid when I talk.
125
I'm not using a lot of linking.
126
Well, it could be these factors.
127
It could be that we're just using a lot of short thought groups.
128
It could be that we're using a lot of stresses in similar positions over and over again.
129
That is causing you to not have the sound that you want.
130
So consider taking a sentence that you say
131
and changing where your thought groups are and trying to lengthen instead of having all your thought groups to be short.
132
That may be enough to help you achieve a more natural sound next time that you speak in English.
133
Once again, guys, thank you so much for hanging out with me.
134

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.
