1
This is film two and there are three particular sounds
2
which I'm going to ask you to repeat after me
3
and I want you to be able to do these as exactly right as possible.
4
If you don't know these sounds, it's rather like me doing an American accent and in the middle of it all dropping in the word tomato.
5
So the first is a sound as in ask, which of course Brits pronounce as R as in ask.
6
So please after me say ask.
7
And now to ask something.
8
Even if you know about words like ask,
9
I'd like you to repeat these after me as the aim is to become conscious of these particular sounds.
10
There is a.. it's not ask.
11
There is a very silly upper-class British accent which talks away like this and ask, to ask something.
12
I'll go into that when I'm doing a film on comedy.
13
But in any case you have to learn this sound first.
14
So for cast, please say cast.
15
And for fast, please say fast.
16
We ask to be cast fast.
17
You don't need to remember any of these words, just to really get used to the sound of the change, from after to after.
18
And just say them when I wave at the camera or if the words appear on the screen.
19
Half is half.
20
Task is task.
21
After half the task on the raft.
22
Laugh is laugh.
23
Cant is can't.
24
Bath is bath.
25
He can't laugh in the bath.
26
Example is example.
27
Command is command.
28
Grass is grass.
29
For example, I command you to stay on the grass.
30
Now, there are exceptions.
31
A hand doesn't become a hand.
32
And doesn't become and.
33
But command does become command.
34
And there's a rule which explains
35
which letters have to follow the sound to make this change but there are exceptions to that, and if you try and learn it all, I think it'll just make things very, very difficult.
36
Anyway, when you're listening to British Accent now, to anything on YouTube, start looking out for this particular sound now.
37
One last time, this example takes us halfway, or part of the way,
38
on the fast path to a perfect accent.
39
I'd like you now to say the four words
40
that are going to appear on the screen out loud with your British accent,
41
please, and keep repeating the word until the next word appears on the screen.
42
So here's the first.
43
So, that was bath, if you'd say it again.
44
And not photographs, but again say photographs.
45
And not a glass, but a glass.
46
And not laughter, but laughter.
47
OK.
48
Now, by the end of this film, you should be able to consciously notice whenever this kind of change comes up,
49
then everything else about the British accent will start soaking into you around
50
that sound around that sound and these other two ones we're going to work on, but that's the first one.
51
Not ask, but ask.
52
And the next is the letter R.
53
Brits don't sound it when it's followed by a consonant.
54
So when you say arm, we say arm.
55
And even if you don't feel you say a little r in arm or hurt, normally, please say after me, not hurt, but hurt.
56
My arm hurt.
57
And not court, but caught.
58
So Brits say court and court in exactly the same way.
59
There's no difference at all.
60
So please say after me, I was in court as I was caught.
61
So we cut the R out before a consonant.
62
So the name Mark is Mark. And at the end...
63
Oop!
64
Right, so where were we?
65
Something to do with caught and caught.
66
Yes, I was in court as I was caught.
67
So cutting out this R before a consonant.
68
And Brits don't say the R at the end of words like car.
69
It's a car.
70
Now this may sound like a very slight difference, car and car, but it's the ability to get that difference,
71
that slight difference, right all the time that really makes you sound like a Brit.
72
So, sir is sir.
73
Far is far.
74
Mark's car is far away, sir.
75
And at the end of bigger words we cut it out, like in mother, it's mother.
76
Father, other, tour is tour.
77
Other mothers and fathers were on tour.
78
So Brits don't say hard or harder as the R is followed by a D.
79
And not third, but third.
80
Third.
81
And door, the word door, almost becomes door, D-A-W.
82
So the third door is harder.
83
My heart was mortally hurt when you hurled that marker at me.
84
Now, don't think, please, or worry about the rest of the sounds in that sentence, or how silly the sentence is.
85
It's just that there are no R sounds.
86
It's not, my heart was mortally hurt when you hurled that marker at me,
87
but my heart was mortally hurt when you hurled that marker at me.
88
So hopefully you'll now be looking out for this R in scripts, and when you hear Brits talking, and when you hear Americans talking,
89
that Americans sound it and Brits don't.
90
So please repeat these three words
91
that are gonna come up on the screen in your British accent and keep saying them until the next word appears.
92
So here's the first one.
93
Right, so that's not chair, but chair.
94
And not curtains, but curtains.
95
And this is quite an interesting one, not Shakespeare, but Shakespeare.
96
Now, when I say it like that, Shakespeare, It might sound to Americans as sort of, particularly because of my accent, as Shakespeare.
97
Oh, Shakespeare's so lovely, I love Shakespeare.
98
It does sound a bit like that in a way, but however we're saying the word, if we're saying, you know, bloody Shakespeare, we just say, oh, bloody Shakespeare.
99
That's the way the word's pronounced, we just don't say the R sound.
100
So it's Shakespeare.
101
Getting these three sounds perfect, the ah and the ah and the third one that's coming up now,
102
will change the way you listen to a British accent for a while.
103
And you'll pick up on other sounds amazingly quickly.
104
Even listening to other films that I've got on this system, don't bother to listen to what I'm talking about.
105
Just listen to what I'm saying and how some words like mask, I pronounce them as mask.
106
So we only pronounce the R when it's followed by a vowel, like in Colorado, or as Y counts as a vowel in the word carry.
107
So then we pronounce it like Americans do, but not in the word art.
108
It's art.
109
And it's just a coincidence that R and the letter R and T spell the word art.
110
It might help you to remember them, but that's just an accident.
111
An accident.
112
So the last of these three sounds that I want you to nail,
113
after ask becoming ask, and large becoming large, because R is followed by the G.
114
Not large, but large.
115
This third sound, much easier, because it doesn't come up that often, but it really stands out, is the letter T.
116
And it stands out because Americans pronounce it as a D, in some words.
117
You say a bottle and better and attitude.
118
So in a British accent bottle is bottle and butter is butter and fatter is fatter.
119
Butter makes us fatter.
120
My daughter ought to have So again,
121
it's not with a D in the middle of daughter and in the middle of order have caught her.
122
It's my daughter ought to have caught her.
123
And I said the word tomato earlier on.
124
It's not only tomorrow that British say, but the second T is not a D, so it's not tomorrow, but tomato.
125
Sounds a small thing, but you get that right, and people just think, oh, well, he's obviously British.
126
So it's A in the word after, and no R when it's followed by a consonant like in farm.
127
So say, my ma is calm on the farm.
128
So calm and farm rhyme exactly.
129
There's no R in calm.
130
We don't pronounce the L.
131
And there's no R effectively in farm.
132
So calm and farm are exactly the same.
133
My ma is calm on the farm.
134
We like large art in Colorado.
135
So it's not large, large, but large.
136
Now, please repeat these three words that'll come up on the screen out loud.
137
Keep saying them in a British accent till the next word comes up.
138
So that was Empire State Building, so there's no R at the end of Empire State Building, and there's a slight tendency to say State with a D,
139
State Building, State Building, and if there's anything in British there's a slight tendency to say a T, State Building.
140
And Water, and the first part of the name of Shakespeare's play, Titus.
141
So it's not Titus Andronicus, but Titus.
142
And then when you know these sounds, when you recognise them all the time, you'll naturally absorb all the other little things about the British accent,
143
like the OR in all, all you have to do is call in the fall.
144
And the OO having a Y behind it in New York.
145
and also in words that you'll notice and start collecting, like assume and Tuesday.
146
I assume it's Tuesday.
147
And that we don't say accent, we say accent.
148
Not accent, but accent.
149
Right, now, just say after me these lines, please.
150
So you'd better go now.
151
When you listen to British accents, try hard not to copy one voice.
152
It's important to hang on to your own.
153
Make sure you find the right accent to listen to.
154
Nearly all British accents now include a mixture of other accents.
155
But virtually all British plays, the ones produced in the USA anyway,
156
require the accent I'm using.
157
So, search for people and films on YouTube that are about people who are clearly middle class like me.
158
Now, you'll find more details on my website about exactly what it means to be British class
159
and you'll probably look for interviews successfully on YouTube by people like Emma Thompson,
160
Judy Dench and Helen Mirren, who are very middle class.
161
And one last quick thought, which is to remind you that what you have to do, as I answer my strange doorbell, to remind you that your job as actors is to act,
162
to give a performance.
163
So don't worry yourself to death about the accent all the time.
164
In the end, you've got to deal with that, what the play is, what the character is.
165
So thanks very much for watching.
166
I'm going to answer the doorbell.
167
Bye-bye.
168
Hello, my doorbell.

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
