Грамматика в этом видео

Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:

Придаточные определительные who / which + предложение — уточнение о человеке или предметеthose who achieve · those who thrive · people who push

Произношение, на которое стоит обратить внимание

Говорящий использует 14 сокращённых и редуцированных форм, например don't, wasn't, you're. Произносите их коротко, так, как слышите.

  • Звуки «th»: strengthen /ˈstɹɛŋ(k)θən/, unworthy /ʌnˈwɝði/, thrive /θɹajv/
  • Звуки «sh» и «zh»: procrastination /pɹəʊˌkɹæs.tɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, sabotage /ˈsæb.əˌtɑʒ/, distraction /dɪsˈtɹæk.ʃən/, sheer /ʃɪɚ/, emotionally /ɪˈməʊʃənəli/

Звуки, трудные для русскоязычных:

  • /w/ — губы округлены, это не /v/: unworthy /ʌnˈwɝði/, whisper /ˈ(h)wɪspɚ/, overweight /ˌoʊvɚˈweɪt/
  • Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: paralyze /ˈpæɹəˌlaɪz/, observe /əbˈzɜːv/, impulsive /ɪmˈpʌlsɪv/, sponge /spʌnd͡ʒ/, sabotage /ˈsæb.əˌtɑʒ/

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.
