Произношение, на которое стоит обратить внимание
Говорящий использует 6 сокращённых и редуцированных форм, например aren't, can't, didn't. Произносите их коротко, так, как слышите.
- Звуки «th»: authorize /ˈɔθəɹaɪz/, slither /ˈslɪðɚ/, thoroughly /ˈθʌɹ.ə.li/, earthquake /ˈɝθkweɪk/
- Звуки «sh» и «zh»: fisherman /ˈfɪʃ.ɚ.mən/, isolation /ˌaɪsəˈleɪʃən/, exaggeration /ɪɡˌzæd͡ʒəˈɹeɪʃən/, shelve /ʃɛlv/, eruption /ɪˈɹʌpʃən/
- Длинные слова — следите за ударением: archaeologist /ˌɑɹ.kiˈɑ.lə.d͡ʒɪst/, isolation /ˌaɪsəˈleɪʃən/, exaggeration /ɪɡˌzæd͡ʒəˈɹeɪʃən/, prehistoric /ˌpɹiː.hɪsˈtoɹ.ɪk/, perimeter /pɪˈɹɪm.ɪ.tə/
Звуки, трудные для русскоязычных:
- /w/ — губы округлены, это не /v/: quarantine /ˈkwɔɹ.ən.tin/, swallow /ˈswɑ.loʊ/, underwater /ʌndɚˈwɔtəɹ/, wipe /waɪp/, earthquake /ˈɝθkweɪk/
- /h/ — лёгкий выдох, а не русское «х»: lighthouse /ˈlaɪthaʊs/, prehistoric /ˌpɹiː.hɪsˈtoɹ.ɪk/, haunt /hɔnt/, horrific /həˈɹɪfɪk/, humidity /hjuːˈmɪd.ə.ti/
- Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: forbid /fɚˈbɪd/, plague /plɛɡ/, surround /səˈɹaʊnd/, authorize /ˈɔθəɹaɪz/, secretive /ˈsiːkɹɪtɪv/

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.
