American English shadowing exercises are for people interested in expanding their American English accents, whether you are located in the US, North America, or other areas around the world. For the best use of shadowing exercises in American English, listen to a section of audio, pause, and repeat what you hear. Try to use the same pronunciation, intonation, stress, pitch patterns, and linking that you find native English speakers use; record yourself and compare the differences.

American English Shadowing Practice

¿No te ha pasado que estás hablando español, leyendo y te preguntas el origen de la palabra que estás usando o que leíste? A mí sí me ha pasado. Algo que muchos saben, es que el origen de las palabras, particularmente en español proviene del latín, del griego, del árabe, en fin, muchas tienen orígenes llamativos y a mí siempre me ha gustado saber el porqué de las cosas. Escucha, al final puedes comentarme si este origen lo sabías o que creías de la palabra. Suscríbete, comenta para dejar tu opinión, comparte con otros estudiantes de español y hablemos de esto en clase.

LA HISTORIA DE LAS PALABRAS

Esta semana me ha comentado una estudiante de EE.UU que hace unos meses, en el quirófano, tras despertarse de la anestesia, empezó a hablar en español y las enfermeras sorprendidas le preguntaban porqué hablaba en otro idioma. Realmente su nivel de español es bueno y su interés por aprender y mejorar es ilimitado.
