So, you can say: There are five, there are ten, there are thirty people in my family.

36
we sometimes draw a line between your immediate family That means you, your husband or wife, your children,
37
parents, and brothers and sisters.
38

That means aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces, grandparents, grandchildren.
40
and so on.
41
Now, you can give more details about the people in your family like this: My immediate family is quite small,
42
because I'm an only child.
43
My mum is one of five children, so I have a lot of cousins who are kind of like my brothers and sisters.
44
There are six people in my immediate family: my parents, my brother and his wife, my sister and me.

I have a lot of other relatives, but they live in Canada, so we don't see them often.

Conversar sobre a família é um excelente ponto de partida para qualquer conversa, pois permite que os falantes se conectem e compartilhem experiências pessoais.

Guia Passo a Passo para Shadowing

Para abordar a dificuldade apresentada neste vídeo de forma eficaz, siga este guia de shadow speech:

  1. Ouça atentamente: Antes de tentar falar, escute a pronúncia e a entonação do falante. Preste atenção nas pausas e no ritmo.
  2. Repetição: Após ouvir uma frase, pause o vídeo e tente repeti-la em voz alta, imitando a pronúncia e a entonação.
  3. Grave-se: Utilize um gravador para registrar sua voz enquanto você tenta repetir as frases. Isso ajuda a identificar áreas que precisam de melhoria.
  4. Comparação: Ouça sua gravação ao lado da do instrutor e analise as diferenças. Preste atenção em aspectos como pronúncia, fluidez e acentuação.
  5. Pratique regularmente: Consistência é chave. Dedique alguns minutos todos os dias para praticar com o vídeo, complementando com outras lições encontradas em um site de shadowing.

Usar a técnica de shadowspeaks ao longo do seu aprendizado de inglês pode acelerar a sua fluência e tornar as conversas cotidianas mais naturais.

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.
