Đang tạo bài học...
1
Let me guess.
2
You can understand English speakers perfectly well when they talk at this speed.
3
However, when they speed up and they start using slang
4
and they kind of don't finish the thoughts
5
and it's all a bit mumbly and jumbly and you don't really know is that a phrasal verb, is that an idiom, I don't really know what you're saying, it's harder to understand them.
6
Let me help.
7
Good morning, good afternoon and good evening.
8
Welcome to Smashing English.
9
Before we start this video, be sure to subscribe because we make new videos all the time and I don't want you to miss any.
10
So with that said, let's get on with the video.
11
Okay, let's really learn how to understand fast English native speakers.
12
I have some tips that will help you.
13
Okay, tip number one.
14
I bet you can understand this person.
15
- People often ask me why I'm so interested in the mental health of children and young people.
16
And the answer is quite simple.
17
because I think that every child should have the best possible start in life.
18
And I'm pretty sure you will find it much harder to understand this person.
19
I know other girls in relationships let these things slide, you know, let their boyfriends text every time they can hurry.
20
Let's try another example.
21
Can you understand this person?
22
The goal, the objective of economic policy should be collective.
23
wellbeing.
24
How happy.
25
and healthy a population is, not just how wealthy a population is.
26
I'm just guessing, but I think you can understand that person pretty well.
27
But what about this person?
28
That thing of not being able to sit back and enjoy it, because you're always on the move to the next thing, on the move to the next thing.
29
I think that's why during lockdown I really struggled as well, because it was like, oh, the next thing, the next thing.
30
And there is no next thing now, because we're all on COVID.
31
Much harder?
32
Let's figure out why.
33
two of them were quite easy to understand and two of them were more of a challenge.
34
Okay, so the two examples that were easier to understand, they were talking in a public setting, they had something that was prepared,
35
they had a script or a speech written and they were presenting to a large group of people.
36
The other two examples featured much younger speakers using a dialect that maybe you are not familiar with.
37
They were speaking in a setting where nothing was planned, nothing was and they were just talking to one, maybe two people, in quite an intimate setting.
38
So my first tip is diversify your listening practice.
39
Stop watching TED Talks, stop watching members of the Royal Family.
40
TED Talks are great.
41
I love TED Talks, but they are presenting.
42
They have written a script.
43
They have planned and practiced what they are going to say, and they want a large group of people to be able to understand them.
44
So of course you'll be able to understand them.
45
That's their main goal.
46
So when you are doing English listening practice, make it your mission to find things that are unscripted.
47
Reality shows, podcasts, chat shows, diversify the listening practice because then your ear is like a muscle,
48
your ear will become so flexible, so adaptable, your ear will be ready to listen to any voice, any dialect.
49
So when you talk to someone, it's like you've done the hard work, you've done the practice, this conversation is easy, I can understand you.
50
Moving on to my next tip, keep
51
My next tip involves a strategy
52
that humans have been using since the dawn of time to understand each other and that is talking to another human being.
53
So I want to recommend a resource that I myself have used for the last three and a half years.
54
Without a doubt, one of the best
55
and most effective ways to improve your English listening quickly is by actually speaking to an English native.
56
It's authentic, it's real and it works.
57
So, learn on italki.
58
Italki is an online learning platform that offers one -to -one customized language lessons in over 150 languages.
59
Although, just guessing, you're probably going to go there for English lessons, but hey, I'm just assuming.
60
There's absolutely no subscription involved, you just pay for the lessons you want.
61
30 minutes, 45 minutes, an hour, an hour and a half, whatever suits you, boo.
62
And the prices start at only $5, which is amazing.
63
Like I said, I teach English on italki and I have done for over three years, so clearly, I'm a fan.
64
Also, I can learn French on Raitoki.
65
When the pandemic happened, when the pandemic is coming.
66
It's coming, thank you.
67
Comprehensive.
68
Oral?
69
- Alors, l 'oreille.
70
- L 'oreille, c 'est.. ah, c 'est le.. ah, oral.
71
Merci.
72
OK, c 'est justement ma compréhension.
73
Oral.
74
- And it's like, it's like your friend is very good, but it's like the hesitation you put between.
75
It's like...
76
Merci!
77
And it's great because I'm able to choose from a huge variety of teachers that are different ages, they have different accents, different speech patterns, different specialities.
78
So if you're struggling with a particular accent, find a teacher on italki with that accent
79
and you will notice how quickly that accent becomes less and less confusing because you are actually interacting with it.
80
When you actually engage with a human who is using their authentic accent, pace and speech to decipher what they're actually talking about.
81
And luckily for you, I have an excellent offer.
82
Use the link in the description to start browsing for a teacher that suits you.
83
And if you buy $10 worth of italki credits, you can get another $5 for free using my exclusive promo code.
84
You are welcome but go quickly
85
because this amazing deal is only available to the first 50 users
86
that get it so go go go go okay tip number three let's talk about the practicalities here
87
because i truly think that this is the main reason why understanding fast english is
88
so hard and it's all because of linking it's
89
because of those annoying linking sounds that everybody does so let me talk you through some of
90
to understand them i believe
91
that the best way to understand something is to be able to do it yourself
92
so learn these linking sounds like you are going to do
93
them try to make them with your own mouth try to actually do them
94
because if you understand the mechanics of how you make the linking sounds it will sound a lot less alien
95
when you hear someone else doing those linking sounds okay
96
so let's look at this sentence here i actually saw a dog in his window on tuesday
97
saw a dog in his window on Tuesday now can you see how
98
that could be quite confusing if I say
99
that really quickly actually saw a dog in his window on Tuesday it's crazy talk crazy talk and it's
100
because it's like I'm saying one big word there are no gaps in the middle it's just one long word
101
so let's talk through the linking sound so the first one we've got
102
actually now no one says I actually they don't put a
103
gap in the middle what we do definitely in in a
104
lot of accents in the UK definitely in standard English most of these links are based on standard English
105
but a lot of them are international lots of different dialects use these linking sounds
106
so I actually how are we going to link that so what we're going to put in the middle is
107
so it becomes I actually.
108
Why do we say why?
109
Let me tell you.
110
So this is a vowel to vowel link, okay, so we've got an I and then we've got an A.
111
I all right so there's two vowel sounds so we have to create a link
112
because they don't really link together without putting something in there I ends wide because when we do I,
113
it's like we're ending on a smile and this is the same for A, and ee.
114
So when you've got this wide vowel, smiley vowel, let's call them smiley vowels.
115
Then to get to the next word, if it starts with a vowel,
116
you have to put a y because it's easy to because our mouth is already wide and when we do y,
117
y, y, it's a wide sound as well.
118
I smile, y actually, and you just release it.
119
I actually, I actually, like that.
120
Okay, moving on to the next linking sound in this sentence.
121
I actually saw a dog.
122
Hold on a second.
123
I definitely just did an R sound.
124
I actually saw a dog.
125
can't see an R there can you am I I can't see an R
126
but I said an R and that is
127
because we have the feature called an intrusive R now
128
if you are only concerned with understanding American speakers don't worry about the intrusive R but
129
if you want to understand a lot of people from Britain you need to understand what the intrusive R is
130
so the intrusive R is when we insert an R to
131
there we just put one in and this can be extremely confusing
132
when you're listening to fast English
133
because you've definitely heard an R hold on there was an R there what's going on
134
but there isn't we've just put one in to help with linking
135
so let's look at the example I actually saw
136
so the reason why we're doing a R here is
137
because we have the or sound of saw and then an uh we have So if we didn't have the linking R,
138
the intrusive R it would sound odd.
139
It would sound like, "I actually saw
140
uh we would have to put a gap in there
141
but we don't like putting gaps in when we speak it's annoying so actually saw feels like it should rhyme with
142
door, right?
143
It's the same sound, saw, door.
144
Look at the word door, there's an R on the end, okay?
145
So actually this sound feels like it ends in an R.
146
The word saw kind of sounds like it ends in an R and that is why we are using the R sound.
147
In a lot of UK dialects, if you have a word that could end in an R,
148
it sounds the same as a word that ends in an R followed by a vowel.
149
We're probably going to put an intrusive R in there.
150
For example, my name is Laura.
151
I'm Laura, it ends on a schwa, uh, uh, uh.
152
But what other words end in a schwa in English?
153
We have mother.
154
Father, water, better.
155
Oh look!
156
R -R -R -R -R.
157
So that schwa sound sometimes is spelt like E -R.
158
So if I have to link my name to something else that's a vowel, I have to put an R in there.
159
So I say Laura Riz.
160
Laura Riz.
161
Laura is great.
162
So push yourself, try to do the intrusive R, try to make that sound, get familiar with it, get comfortable with it, learn how it works.
163
Imagine you are an actor learning an accent for a role
164
or something and if you can do it you will definitely understand it when you hear it.
165
So now we have this okay, I actually saw a dog.
166
I actually saw a dog.
167
Now the next link is a little bit easier because we have a hard consonant 'dog' then a vowel.
168
When you've got that hard consonant followed by a vowel just push the two together like it's one word.
169
So instead of saying dog in you're gonna say dog in.
170
So it's like the second part of that sound is gin
171
you've you've put the g in front of the next word
172
it's one sound i actually saw a dog in now the
173
next linking sound is kind of uk specific as well
174
because a lot of the time in the uk we will
175
drop our h's you will hear this in parts of london
176
places like liverpool birmingham sometimes we just don't like the h
177
so for example here instead of saying in his we're probably going to say in
178
in his taken away that h completely and we've made it into one word i actually saw a dog in his
179
We just smush everything together, everything's just connected.
180
I actually saw a dog in his window on Tuesday.
181
didn't stop once.
182
So how can you practice this?
183
How can you learn how to do this?
184
I have one very simple technique for you.
185
I want you to say a sentence like a song.
186
When you listen to singers, everything is connected.
187
Everything goes like this, it doesn't stop, it just goes like this.
188
There are no gaps in there.
189
So if we sang this sentence, I actually saw a dog in his window on
190
tune anything it can be straight I actually saw a dog
191
in his window on Tuesday make it one continuous sound don't stop the sound
192
so practice speaking in song so read a book on But sing it.
193
That's my best advice for you.
194
Sing, connect things together, You've got to become best friends with linking sounds if you want to understand fast English, okay?
195
Moving on to my next tip.
196
If you want to understand fast spoken English, especially with speakers from the UK, you have to be prepared for the schwa, okay?
197
The schwa is everywhere it's the most common vowel sound in British English it happens all the time
198
and if you're listening to someone speaking it might just sound like you're hearing the same sound over
199
and over again and it can be very hard to differentiate okay
200
so that was a schwa but it's an o
201
that was a schwa but it's an a it's all over the place okay
202
so if you are not familiar a schwa sounds like this Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
203
It's not a very cheery sound.
204
It's not very happy.
205
It's pretty miserable uh uh uh uh staying alive staying alive
206
it's just neutral nothing happens with the mouth nothing happens with
207
the tongue uh in a standard english dialect this sentence would
208
sound a little something like this I was a doctor for two years, a teacher for four years, and then an administrator because I love change.
209
Did you hear that all the way through?
210
And a schwa doesn't have to be one letter.
211
A schwa isn't always an A or an E.
212
It's very hard to spot because they just happen all the time.
213
So for example, on a word like doctor, teacher, these ER or OR ending words, that will be a schwa.
214
So doctor, teacher, administrator, that will be a schwa.
215
Also the word for, a lot of the time we don't complete that sound, we just go fuh.
216
doctor for two years a teacher for seven years for for for we're not even
217
completing the word we're just saying fun also the word was can become was a was W -U -Z, I was a...
218
A is not an A, it's an U.
219
So I was a doctor.
220
I was a doctor for two years.
221
I was a doctor for two years.
222
A teacher for seven years.
223
and an administrator, an administrator.
224
The schwa just takes over so you have to be prepared to hear it
225
and you have to know when to do it and how to do it.
226
So do some research, practice, become like I said, like an actor who was learning an accent, become fascinated by the sounds.
227
If you are not interested in the sounds that English speakers are making,
228
you'll never understand Okay, moving on to my next tip.
229
So my next piece of advice for you is
230
stop listening for sentences stop waiting for the sentence to have
231
a nice end stop waiting for the thought to be completed
232
we don't speak in sentences listen to your own native language
233
or listen to how you speak with people it's very rare
234
that we have clean sentences that have a lovely beginning middle
235
and an end it's not the same as writing we get distracted we we say the start of a sentence
236
and then we forget and then we say something else so if you have a
237
understand let's say you really want to understand Irish English you're moving to Dublin
238
and you want to understand the Irish dialect
239
and you want to know how to understand fast Irish speakers then learn what their hesitation sound is
240
because some people go some people go and some people go in some
241
you and try to follow physical cues
242
if you can pay attention to the person's face
243
and their gestures try to follow their thoughts don't just listen to the words they are saying
244
because most of our communication comes from nonverbal communication so if I'm talking to you but I
245
I stop and maybe I move on to this thought.
246
You can tell that I stopped this thought and I moved on to this thought just by paying attention to my features.
247
So if you watch podcasts that's really great.
248
You know a lot of podcasts they have videos now
249
so you can watch the person who is speaking
250
and try to follow their train of thought because we never talk in sentences.
251
It's very rare.
252
So this is another reason why I don't want you to watch anything scripted because when it's scripted
253
ah beginning middle end beginning middle end
254
but that's not how we speak in everyday life okay moving on sometimes it's not
255
that your english listening is really bad it's
256
that the person you are listening to is using new words
257
that you've not heard before or they are taking words
258
that you think you know but they've changed it so let's talk about contractions because we love
259
some of the things that confuse you.
260
So for example, the one
261
that everyone knows, gonna okay instead of going to we say gonna
262
so i'm gonna love this film tonight i really think i'm
263
gonna love it what about wanna instead of want to we say wanna I don't want to go.
264
I wanna go.
265
This one you might not know.
266
Tryna.
267
Tryna.
268
Instead of trying to, I'm trying to find my keys.
269
What about gimme?
270
Gimme, gimme that, gimme that.
271
Dunno, instead of don't know.
272
I don't know.
273
I don't know.
274
Is not becomes ain't.
275
"Ain't" I ain't going.
276
This one you might not know.
277
Lemmy.
278
Instead of let me.
279
Lemmy.
280
Lemmy see.
281
Hey, lemmy see. In it.
282
Instead of isn't it.
283
It's like a clarification that we use a lot in the UK.
284
So it's Tuesday, innit?
285
Kinda instead of kind of.
286
Again we're turning that of into a schwa so it's not kind of, it's kinda.
287
Kinda, schwa, uh.
288
I'm kinda hungry. And dir.
289
Instead of do you, people would say like, "djuh, djuh." Do you want that?
290
Do you want to go to the cinema?
291
"Do you want to go to the cinema?" do you want to go to the cinema?
292
You've got to learn these contractions, you've got to be familiar with them because they happen a lot
293
and I don't want that to confuse you when people are talking in fast English.
294
So in conclusion, if you want to understand fast English native speakers, you need to learn the sounds that they are making.
295
If possible, you should be able to do their accent,
296
you should be able to recognize what a schwa is, you should know the difference between "dad" and "dead",
297
you should know the difference in those vowel sounds.
298
So you've got to become fascinated by sounds and consonants and vowels,
299
get involved, do your research and you will notice a huge difference, I promise you.

Những Gì Bạn Sẽ Học Được
Khi bạn xem video này, bạn sẽ có cơ hội nâng cao khả năng phát âm tiếng anh chuẩn của mình thông qua việc lắng nghe cách người bản địa giao tiếp. Có ba kỹ năng cụ thể mà bạn sẽ phát triển:
- Kỹ năng lắng nghe: Bạn sẽ trở nên nhạy bén hơn trong việc nhận diện âm thanh và ngữ điệu của tiếng Anh.
- Kỹ năng nói: Bạn sẽ học cách phản xạ và bắt chước cách nói của người bản địa để cải thiện khả năng giao tiếp của mình.
- Kỹ năng kết nối âm thanh: Bạn sẽ hiểu hơn về cách mà người bản địa liên kết âm thanh, đặc biệt là khi họ nói nhanh.
Nghe Những Âm Thanh Này
Trong video, có nhiều âm thanh nối kết và giảm âm mà bạn sẽ gặp phải khi nghe người bản địa. Đây là những yếu tố quan trọng giúp bạn luyện nghe nói qua video một cách hiệu quả:
- Âm nối: Ví dụ, âm “y” thường được thêm vào giữa một số từ như “I actually” trở thành “I actually.”
- Âm giảm: Các từ như “to” được nói nhanh thành “ta” trong cụm từ “gonna” (going to) hay “wanna” (want to).
- Schwa: Âm schwa, như âm “uh”, xuất hiện rất nhiều trong tiếng Anh và có thể gây khó khăn cho người nghe mới.
Nói Như Một Người Bản Địa
Để cải thiện kỹ năng nói của bạn, một trong những phương pháp hữu ích là shadow speech. Bạn có thể thực hành theo cách sau:
- Bắt chước ngữ điệu: Lắng nghe và cố gắng nói theo nhịp điệu của người nói. Điều này giúp bạn cải thiện cách phát âm và ngữ điệu của mình.
- Thực hành thường xuyên: Sử dụng phần mềm shadowing hoặc các video để luyện tập. Hãy cố gắng lặp lại theo những gì bạn nghe, giống như một bóng dáng.
- Được hỗ trợ từ công nghệ: Hãy tìm kiếm những công cụ như shadowspeaks để cải thiện khả năng lắng nghe và nói tiếng Anh của bạn.
Nhờ những kỹ thuật này, bạn sẽ thấy khả năng hiểu và nói tiếng Anh của mình dần được cải thiện. Hãy kiên nhẫn và thực hành đều đặn nhé!

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
