1
Today we're going to talk about music, the music of language, of English, and how native speakers listen to it.
2
The stress, the up -down shape, is the anchor for me when I'm listening, and it gives me that familiar structure.
3
Everything that I hear fits within this structure of stress.
4
Tom's going to teach you how to identify what native speakers identify when they're listening to English,
5
and how to use that to your advantage to be more easily understood when you're speaking English.
6
Who's Tom?
7
He's a standout teacher in Rachel's English Academy, he coaches students every day,
8
and I have seen and heard the amazing progress that students can make when working with him.
9
First he's going to talk about the music of English, and then he's going to use some clips from movies to illustrate what he's teaching you.
10
I know.
11
I know.
12
I know.
13

14

15
Hi, I'm Tom Kelly, a Rachel's English teacher with Rachel's English Academy.
16
I work with students all over the world, and there's one thing that I think really helps students speak more like native speakers.
17
And it has nothing to do with actually speaking.
18
It comes before speaking, and it's all about listening.
19
In order to speak like a native speaker, you really want to be able to listen like a native speaker.
20
And that's what this video is all about.
21
Let's get started.
22
So what does it mean to listen like a native speaker?
23
Well, the first thing we want to think about is the fact that English is a stress -timed language.
24
So what does that mean?
25
It means that our syllables are going to be different lengths from one another.
26
Now we're going to have stressed syllables, which are the longer syllables, and we're going to have unstressed syllables, which are shorter.
27
I'm going to pop in for a minute to try something new.
28
We have a sponsor for this video, the good people at Skillshare.
29
Skillshare.
30
Now I know you already do a lot of online learning, and you know that the internet can connect you to experts in any field,
31
anywhere in the world.
32
I myself do a lot of learning online.
33
Skillshare is a site where you can take classes in anything from writing to photography to building a business.
34
You can learn with their website or use their app.
35
I myself am really interested in growing food.
36
So that's the first thing I searched for, and I found some great classes.
37
Yeah, I'm probably going to take that gelato making class too.

40
Let's thank them for supporting this channel.
41
If you find a course you like, let me know in the video comments below.
42
Okay, let's get back to the lesson.
43
Here's how I like to think about stressed and unstressed syllables.
44
Unstressed syllables are quicker.
45
They're flatter in vocal pitch.
46
They use less energy.
47
Often that means they
48
They don't use as much movement from your articulators, your jaw, your tongue, your lips.
49
And they can be just a little less clear often than stressed syllables.
50
Alright, so that leaves stressed syllables.
51
What are they?
52
They're longer.
53
They have more energy.
54
They use more movement from the articulators.
55
They're clearer.
56
And I think probably the most important part of a stressed syllable is the curve in the pitch of the voice.
57
Rachel calls this the shape of stress.
58
It's an up and down musical curve in the voice that happens on stressed syllables in American English.
59
So those stressed syllables with that up -down shape, those are my anchors.
60
And that's what gives me a familiar structure when I'm listening to English. So great.
61
We know that stressed syllables are longer, they have this musical element with this up and down curve in the voice,
62
and that unstressed syllables are quicker and flatter in vocal pitch.
63
Now what?
64
Well, now I have to tell you that syllables are more important than words when it comes to spoken American English.
65
Now, what does that mean?
66
When you are reading English and you're looking at all the words on a page, the words are very important.
67
It's the words that are giving you that information, and you need them to be spaced out in order to read more easily.
68
Well, when we speak English, we don't really worry about any of those breaks in between words, do we?
69
We kind of mash everything together into one long word.
70
Yes, I was just working on a video on this topic.
71
When you read, the unit that you focus on is a word.
72
But when you're listening or speaking, the unit isn't the word, it's a thought group.
73
And a thought group is any collection of words between breaks when speaking.
74
It can be really short, you can have a one word thought group like, like, hi.
75
Or it can be much longer, a very long sentence with no breaks.
76
Or it can be much longer, a very long sentence with no breaks. For example.
77
Let's take the phrase, I'll see you later.
78
I'll see you later.
79
How many words are in there?
80
I'll see you later.
81
There's four words.
82
I'll see you later.
83
But when we speak it, I'll see you later.
84
I'll see you later.
85
I'll see you later.
86
There really only sounds like there's one word.
87
So the syllables, the stressed syllables, are the important part.
88
That's what we want to bring out in our sentences, in our phrases, so that our listeners can understand us.
89
And that's what native speakers are listening for.
90
They're listening for the stressed syllables.
91
Now, I'll see you later.
92
How can we tell what the stressed syllables are?
93
I'll see you later.
94
I'll see you later.
95
What did we say about stressed syllables?
96
They have that up and down curve in the pitch of the voice.
97
How many up and down curves in my voice do you hear?
98
I'll see you later.
99
I'll see you later.
100
I'll see you later. To.
101
See.
102
Lay.
103
Those are the important syllables.
104
Those are the stressed syllables in the content words in that phrase.
105
I'll see you later.
106
I'll see you later.
107
Now, another thing to think about that proves again that syllables are more important than words
108
is that a four -word phrase can take the exact same amount of time
109
that it takes a four -syllable word to say.
110
What did I just say?
111
Four words will take just as long to say as one word?
112
Yes, because it's the syllables that are important.
113
Let's take an example like vulnerable.
114
Vulnerable.
115
There's four syllables in that word.
116
Vulnerable.
117
How many stress syllables do you hear?
118
Vulnerable.
119
Vulnerable.
120
Just one, right?
121
That first syllable has that up and down quality in the voice.
122
Vol.
123
Vulnerable.
124
Vulnerable.
125
Now, let's take a phrase, give it to me.
126
Give it to me.
127
Four words, each word is one syllable, so four syllables in that phrase.
128
Give it to me.
129
Give it to me.
130
Again, can you hear the up and down quality in one of those words?
131
Give it to me.
132
Give.
133
Give it to me.
134
So we have the first word, the first syllable stressed.
135
Give.
136
Give it to me.
137
Vulnerable.
138
Vulnerable.
139
Give it to me.
140
They both have the exact same music and they both take the exact same amount of time to say.
141
Once you know the music and rhythm pattern of a phrase or word like that,
142
all of a sudden you can speak the music of a bunch of different phrases and words.
143
Let's look at a few of them.
144
Confession.
145
Confession.
146
I love it.
147
I love it.
148
I'll have one.
149
I'll have one.
150
Uh.
151
Uh.
152
Do you hear that it's the same music under all of these phrases and words.
153
He did it.
154
He did it.
155
I know that.
156
I know that.
157
Ah.
158
Productive.
159
Productive.
160
Ah.
161
Let's listen to all of them right in a row.
162
Confession.
163
I love it.
164
I'll have one.
165
He did it.
166
I know that.
167
Productive.
168
Ah.
169
Ah.
170
It's all the same music.
171
Listen for that stressed syllable in phrases and words, and that's what you want to begin imitating once you've started to hear it.
172
Now what's awesome is there is so much material out there
173
that you can listen to to get a sense for the musicality, to begin listening in this way, to begin listening like a native speaker.
174
So Rachel actually made a video about how to use youglish .com to practice your pronunciation.
175
This is a great tool to use to begin listening like a native speaker
176
so that can imitate with more precision and clarity and native speaker quality.
177
But let's go ahead and take a little bit of time here to listen to some TV
178
and film clips and see if we can hear the music, hear the rhythm, hear the important stressed syllables.
179
The phrase is, I know, I know.
180
I know.
181
I know.
182
I know.
183
I know.
184
I know.
185
I know.
186
I know.
187
I know.
188
I know.
189
I know.
190
I know.
191
I know.
192
I know.
193
I know.
194
I know.
195
How many stress syllables do you hear?
196
I know.
197
Just one.
198
No. Right?
199
All of them are going to say the exact same musical rhythm pattern here.
200
Now, everyone is completely unique.
201
They may shift exactly the way that they're expressing themselves with these words, but the rhythm, that stress syllable,
202
that up -and -down quality in the voice, that musical quality, is there for all of them.
203
Let's listen again.
204
I know.
205
I know.
206
I know.
207
I know.
208
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
209
How about this phrase?
210
You're the best, you're the best, you're the best, you're the best, you're the best, you're the best, you're the best, you're the best,
211
you're the best, you're the best.
212
How many stressed syllables do you hear?
213
You're the best, you're the best.
214
I just hear that up and down curve in the voice on best.
215
Best.
216
So that's our stressed syllable.
217
That's the important syllable.
218
You're the best.
219
You're the best.
220
You're the best.
221
You're the best.
222
You're the best.
223
You're the best.
224
You're the best.
225
You're the best.
226
You're the best.
227
You're the best.
228
You're the best.
229
Are you starting to hear that music?
230
Ah.
231
Ah.
232
Awesome.
233
So now let's make it a little bit more complicated.
234
Let's go to some longer sentences.
235
In this first clip, let's listen for where are the stressed syllables.
236
What are the syllables that have that up and down curve in the voice?
237
Everything happens for a reason. Did you hear it?
238
I heard three.
239
Everything happens for a reason.
240
You want to listen for that music.
241
Where are the important syllables?
242
One thing that can be really useful is listening to a sentence, a phrase, a word, three, four times in a row,
243
and you begin to hear the music underneath the words.
244
Let's listen to this one three times in a row.
245
Everything happens for a reason.
246
Everything happens for a reason.
247
Are you beginning to hear it?
248
Let's go to another sentence.
249
He refused to believe in coincidence. Do you hear that?
250
He refused to believe in coincidence.
251
Three stressed syllables, all connected into one long word, but those three syllables give us the meaning and the music.
252
He refused to believe in coincidence.
253
Let's try one more.
254
Find a happy place, find a happy place, find a happy place.
255
Find a happy place.
256
Ah, ah, ah.
257
Ah, ah, ah.
258
Hopefully you're beginning to hear that music underneath the American English being spoken.
259
And once you begin to hear it and really listen for it,
260
you'll be able to imitate it with a lot more precision and you'll sound much more like a native speaker,
261
the more music you can bring in to your English.
262
This week, take some time when you're listening to a podcast, or watching a show or movie in American English,
263
to think about the music of what you're hearing.
264
Remember how Tom was taking sentences and breaking them down into ahhh, just the melody on a single sound, no words.
265
Listen to what you're hearing as you're listening to that podcast,
266
and think about what would this phrase sound like if I just said it on uh, if I took out all the words.
267
Again, there is so much material out there to practice with.
268
I really recommend using youglish .com.
269
It's a great resource to practice the words and phrases that you want to be able to say.
270
Alright, that's everything for this video.
271
Thank you so much for watching, and thank you so much for using Rachel's English.
272
Huge thanks to Tom for making this video.
273
You know, Tom actually spends a lot more time with students these days than I do.
274
A lot of my time goes towards making videos for my YouTube channel, or running my online school.
275
Tom is actually working with students every day, coaching them, helping them improve,
276
and because of that, I really value his opinion when it comes down to what works and what helps students.
277
Alright guys, thanks for studying with me and Tom.
278
That's it, and thanks so much for using Rachel's English.

Những cấu trúc người nói dùng nhiều nhất, kèm đúng cụm từ trong video:
| Cấu trúc | Trong video |
|---|---|
| Thì hiện tại hoàn thành have/has + quá khứ phân từ — việc đã xảy ra nhưng còn liên quan đến hiện tại | have seen · you've started |

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.
