    • We need to talk about ...
    Hey Everyone! ) I’m Anna and welcome to my channel. Here, I post some useful information for English learners. I’m from Ukraine and I’ve worked on my English and accent, for the most part, on my own, but you can find out and trace my story by watching my videos. I’ve been studying American pronunciation for a long time, and I still do, and I guess I always will - because it’s not math. Learning a language, it’s a lifetime journey. I know exactly what it takes to become fluent and acquire an accent in a non-English speaking country, and I’ve never even been to one. And I’m sharing this information here - on my channel.

    I actually started to watch educational video on RUclips and then I added videos from native speakers and after that movies became understandable. It takes time just keep practicing 😊

    in brief:
    In this video, the speaker discusses why English language learners might find it easier to understand educational videos on RUclips but struggle with understanding native speakers in movies, TV shows, or real life.
    The answer is broken down into four categories: vocabulary, speaking speed, pronunciation/articulation/accent, and context.
    1-Vocabulary: Educational videos use simpler, more common vocabulary, while native speakers in movies or real life might use idiomatic expressions and slang.
    2-Speaking speed: Teachers in educational videos speak slower and more clearly, while native speakers may speak faster and use linking, which can be challenging for learners.
    3-Pronunciation, articulation, and accent: In educational videos, speakers enunciate their words and use a consistent accent, while in movies or real life, there may be various accents and speaking styles.
    4-Context: Native speakers often use cultural references, idioms, and expressions that may be unfamiliar to learners.
    The speaker encourages viewers to continue working on their listening skills through regular exposure to different accents and to not get discouraged, as even native speakers might struggle with understanding certain accents or expressions.

    Hey Anna. Thanks for sharing your take on this. As some other people in the comments have added, there are also some issues to do with the way sound is captured and mixed on movie sets these days. That said, all your other observations and advice are completely relevant.
    I've lived in France for 16 years (I'm from the UK) and I can understand almost everything I hear, unless someone has a really unusual accent. But I still find some movie dialogue hard to catch. Even my French partner can find some lines a bit tricky!
    Totally agree with getting out of your comfort zone and listening to material that's challenging. It leads to the greatest rewards and growth, even if it's hard at first. And yes, references are a nightmare. Gilmore Girls is a series with tons of references I don't understand! So many of them are to do with American sport or old movies and singers. You certainly learn a lot when you watch it if you look this stuff up afterwards.

  • @rawasalah9073

    I have a relative that I can't speak with, even though she speaks my native language. Her accent is so strong that I simply don't understand her. That's why I don't worry about understanding native English people anymore. My advice as a person with intermediate-to-advanced level is to listen to authentic English content first. You get exposed to real English. If you can't understand, change the speed of the material first, then listen to it naturally. Check if there are subtitles or transcripts (in English!) and feel free to use them. I had and still have this problem. Sometimes the sound is not clear, but it is normal not to understand everything.

    Merci pour cette vidéo. Tous les points que vous avez relevés sont pertinents.
    Ça fait plus de trois ans que j'utilise l'anglais au quotidien, j'ai lu énormément de livres, regardé énormément de vidéos sur internet.
    À force de regarder du contenu vidéo en anglais uniquement depuis des années, je me suis habitué au vocabulaire et aux accents utilisés aux USA au point d'être très à l'aise avec les films et les séries en anglais sans sous-titres. Mais même après tant de pratique, parfois il y a des phrases entières que je ne comprends pas dans les films. Je vais continuer à m'exercer.
    Je préfère écrire en français parce que c'est dans cette langue que j'ai fait toutes mes études, je peux donc mieux exprimer mes idées. Après tout, celui qui sera intéressé par le commentaire va le traduire.

    To compound the problem, many native speakers complain that movies are getting harder to understand because the speaking parts are not loud enough to hear clearly. Not only that but the images are too dark to see the whole scene clearly.. This is not misperception, it is real. the reason for this is to make the content so it can be broadcast in many different formats without re-editing and mixing it. Making adjustments so many can enjoy but nobody gets an ideal presentation.

      Thank you for pointing this out! I (German native speaker) have been living, working (including tour guiding) and teaching in Australia for 15 year. My English is certainly fairly professional. I understand any and every conversation, I turn the speed of podcasts often to 1.5 and can deal with any accent. However: I struggle with movies. I, too, believe they are not clear and loud enough. German movies are way easier to understand. And this is not because this is my first language. In any other context I speak English just as well as I speak German. But English movies suck when it comes to understanding.
