Hello, it's Keith once again from the Keith Speaking Academy, here to help you become a much more confident speaker of English.
7
Now then, do you sometimes listen to a native speaker and think, what did he say?
8
And then maybe you check the transcript and you go, he didn't say that.
9
For example, you may hear them say, that's interesting.
10
And then you look at the transcript and it says, that's interesting.
11
It should be interesting.
12
But he said interesting.
13
What's happening?
14
Well, this is what you could call squeezed pronunciation.
15
To squeeze, right?
16
To take the word and make it smaller.
17
Basically, what's happening is certain words in English, we don't pronounce every syllable.
18
We kind of swallow some of the sounds and it becomes squeezed.
19
It's something we do so that foreigners can't understand us, basically.
20
Just joking.

Now, what I'm going to do then in this video is I'm going to show you 12 everyday common words
22
that we use regularly and to see if you can hear the correct or this squeeze pronunciation.

什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
