1
Hey everyone!
2
Welcome or welcome back to the channel.
3
Today we're doing something a little different which I hope will be useful to a lot of you and a little fun.
4
We're doing some shadowing practice.
5
Shadowing is one of the best ways to improve your pronunciation,
6
overall fluency, and your confidence in English.
7
If you've never heard of shadowing before, it's pretty simple.
8
Shadowing is a technique in language learning where you listen to a native speaker
9
or someone you'd like to sound like in English and repeat exactly after them,
10
paying careful attention to the pronunciation of their words and the intonation of their sentences.
11
Now, I'm a native speaker from the US,
12
so I speak with an American accent.
13
So if you want to learn the American accent,
14
you're in the right place.
15
I'm going to read a voicemail out loud and you'll repeat exactly as I say it.
16
So you'll be my shadow.
17
You'll mimic my tone, my speed, my rhythm, everything.
18
And don't worry if it feels awkward at first.
19
I felt silly the first time I tried this technique in German,
20
but trust me, this method does work.
21
So grab some water to get those vocal chords ready and let's begin.
22
English made easy with Claire.
23
Okay, so like I said,
24
I'm going to read out loud a voicemail or voice note that I may send to a friend.
25
I'll stop and go over some of my pronunciations and intonations
26
that I want to point out to you all as we go.
27
But the idea is that you'll not only repeat after me,
28
but also say it with me and I'll give you opportunities to do that.
29
And if you ever want more practice on something,
30
you can always pause the video and repeat it as many times as you like.
31
So let's begin.
32
I'll read and you shadow me.
33
Hey, it's me.
34
Hey, it's me.
35
You'll notice at the beginning of the sentence,
36
my intonation rises, and then it falls at the end.
37
So you practice with me.
38
Hey, it's me.
39
And together, hey, it's me.
40
Rise and fall.
41
Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing.
42
Okay, so I want to draw your attention to the T's in just and wanted.
43
So I didn't actually pronounce the T's in either of these words.
44
I just wanted, I just wanted, just wanted, just wanted.
45
So if the T comes at the end of the word or in the middle of a word,
46
we often totally drop the T in the American accent.
47
You try.
48
I just wanted to check in.
49
I just wanted to check in.
50
You'll also notice that I don't pronounce to with the oo vowel,
51
but I used the schwa sound.
52
Uh, right?
53
To check in.
54
to check in.
55
It's not always pronounced in very fast speech to check in,
56
to check in, to check in.
57
Okay, let's repeat the whole phrase together.
58
Here we go.
59
Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing.
60
Again, and we don't always pronounce the D at the end.
61
That one falls away.
62
An, an, an, c, an, c.
63
How you're doing?
64
Also the ng at the end there,
65
that fell away as well.
66
I didn't pronounce doing, but often will shorten ing endings to how you're doing.
67
Okay, let's say the whole thing together.
68
I just wanted to check in and see how you're doing.
69
I haven't heard from you in a while and I figured you've been busy.
70
I haven't heard from you in a while and I figured you've been busy.
71
Again, we have the rise in the first phrase.
72
I haven't heard from you in a while.
73
And I figured you've been busy.
74
The intonation falls at the end of the sentence.
75
Also, the and elides with the I here.
76
So we don't pronounce the D at the end.
77
We had that already.
78
But with the followed by a vowel sound,
79
we have and I, and I,
80
and I, and I figured you've been busy.
81
And I figured you've been busy.
82
So I was thinking, are we still on for dinner this Friday?
83
So I was thinking, are we still on for dinner this Friday?
84
Here we have a question.
85
So the intonation doesn't go down.
86
It goes up at the end.
87
Are we still on for dinner this Friday?
88
That one goes up because it's a question.
89
And still on, still on,
90
again, we kind of allied the L sound to the beginning of a word that begins with a vowel.
91
Still on, still on.
92
Let's say that one together.
93
So I was thinking, are we still on for dinner this Friday?
94
I found this great Italian place downtown,
95
and I think you'll love it.
96
Here, we want to emphasize the words that are most important.
97
You can hear that in my speech.
98
I found this great Italian place downtown and I think you'll love it.
99
So I'm emphasizing the place,
100
the restaurant is great and that I think you'll love it.
101
I suspect you will like it.
102
Let's say that one together.
103
I found this great Italian place downtown and I think you'll love it.
104
Oh, and one more thing.
105
Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?
106
Okay, again, we have an exclamation followed by a question.
107
So we know the question intonation.
108
If there's an exclamation point,
109
our intonation might go a little higher here.
110
Oh, and one more thing.
111
Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?
112
Now, you may have noticed I didn't pronounce do you.
113
Do you remember?
114
But do you remember?
115
We can elide do and you.
116
Do you becomes do.
117
Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?
118
Also, I want to draw your attention to this ed ending in mentioned.
119
This has a d sound, mentioned.
120
Again, it kind of falls away in normal speech.
121
Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?
122
Okay, you may not hear the ed so strong here,
123
but it's a d sound, right?
124
In the next sentence, I finally finished it.
125
And oh my gosh, it was amazing.
126
I finally finished it.
127
And oh my gosh, it was amazing.
128
Now, finished has a T ending for ED.
129
We often have to know which pronunciation of the ED ending it is.
130
And a lot of the time,
131
you just have to memorize these.
132
here it's a t.
133
I finally finished it.
134
I finally finished it.
135
And oh my gosh, it was amazing.
136
You have to read it.
137
I really want my friend to read it.
138
So I emphasize half.
139
It's not have with this V sound that we've probably all been taught, but half.
140
And hafta, hafta.
141
You have to read it, not have to, right?
142
We have a different way of speaking very quickly.
143
You have to read it.
144
Let's say it together.
145
You have to read it.
146
Let me know if you want me to bring it for you on Friday.
147
Let me know if you want me to bring it for you on Friday.
148
So not let me, we have lemme, let me know.
149
Let me know if you want me to bring it for you on Friday.
150
We drop that T at the end of want as well.
151
If you want me, want me.
152
Okay.
153
Anyway, no rush.
154
Just give me a call when you get a chance.
155
Okay?
156
Okay?
157
This tag question at the end,
158
okay, is a rise in intonation there.
159
And give me was not overly pronounced, but gimme, gimme.
160
Anyway, no rush.
161
Just gimme a call when you get a chance, okay?
162
Hope everything's good on your end.
163
Talk to you soon.
164
hope everything's good on your end,
165
your end, your end, those allied together,
166
talk to you soon, talk to you,
167
talk to you, not talk to you,
168
but talk to you soon.
169
Let's say that one more time together.
170
Hope everything's good on your end, talk to you soon.
171
Okay, awesome job.
172
I'm now going to read the whole voicemail again in one take,
173
and I want you to read along with me.
174
This is also so you can come back to this video at any time and practice speaking along with me without stopping.
175
Of course, you can still pause the video at any time.
176
Hey, it's me.
177
Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing.
178
I haven't heard from you in a while,
179
and I figured you've been busy.
180
So I was thinking, are we still on for dinner this Friday?
181
I found this great Italian place downtown and I think you'll love it.
182
Oh, and one more thing.
183
Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?
184
I finally finished it and oh my gosh, it was amazing.
185
You have to read it.
186
Let me know if you want me to bring it for you on Friday.
187
Anyway, no rush.
188
Just give me a call when you get a chance, okay?
189
Hope everything's good on your end.
190
Talk to you soon.

課程介紹

在這一堂課中,您將通過影子練習(shadow speech)來提升您的英語發音和流利度。我們將一起傾聽並模仿一位母語者的語音,這樣您不僅能夠提高自信,還能更好地掌握美式英語的語調和節奏。無論您是初學者還是希望進一步鞏固雅思口語練習的學習者,這種方法都非常適合您。通過不斷地重複和模仿,您會發現自己的口語水平有顯著提高。

關鍵詞彙與短語

  • 影子練習 (shadowing):模仿母語者說話的技巧。
  • 語調 (intonation):說話時音調的變化。
  • 流利度 (fluency):流利自如地表達思想的能力。
  • 發音 (pronunciation):說話時每個單詞的正確讀音。
  • 中斷 (pause):在說話時故意停止,以便更好地控制語調和節奏。
  • 語速 (speed):說話的快慢,影影響您的口語表現。
  • 跟讀 (repeat after):跟隨母語者的說法進行重複。
  • 美式口音 (American accent):美國人特有的英語發音風格。

練習技巧

在進行影子練習時,以下幾點小貼士將有助於您更好地掌握這一技巧:

  • 首先,聆聽影片中母語者的講話,注意他們的語調和語速。模仿時要與他們的聲音保持一致。
  • 如果您發現某些部分難以跟上,不妨暫停影片並重復幾次,這樣可以幫助您更好地記住發音。
  • 注意音節的重音和停頓,這對增強您的流利度和語音的自然度非常重要。
  • 在逐步提升自己跟讀的同時,也可以嘗試使用shadowing site上其他的資源進行多樣化的練習。
  • 最後,不要害怕犯錯,保持輕鬆的心態,享受這個過程中提升自我的樂趣。

通過這樣的影子練習,您將能在看YouTube學英語的過程中,逐漸掌握更自然、更自信的口語表達能力。通過不斷的練習,您一定會看到顯著進步!

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:

結構影片中的用法
現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事you've never heard · haven't heard · you've been
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的been taught · was not overly pronounced

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。
