The Short Transcript Challenge IV: Killing Caesar

Violence and power struggle. A timeless classic. You can revise the pronunciation of some vocabulary on history for this transcription, and don't forget the pronunciation of proper names!

A milestone event in ancient Roman history:

Killing Caesar

Enjoy!

The Short Transcript Challenge III: Ancient Superpower

These videos all elaborate on the same subject, and hopefully you will be able to see some progress in your transcription as you get used to the voice, the topic, and the type of discourse. Everything's a matter of frequency and practice.

Gotta love Roman times:

Ancient Superpower

Enjoy!

The Short Transcript Challenge II: Doomsday Pompeii

This is the other video you already know, and which originated work with short transcriptions. Prepare for the exhibition and hone your listening skills with this tiny video:

Doomsday Pompeii

The Short Transcript Challenge I: The Heart of the Empire

Since some of you were keen enough to send me your versions of some transcripts, I propose comparing them here.

So, for the next entries, and probably from time to time when I find suitable videos, we'll carry out The Short Transcript Challenge (fanfare!)

The procedure is very simple. Just write down your version in the comments and compare with others. I'll include mine, probably on a separate window. I suggest that you check with other people's versions before correction, but to do that, we need some active participation!

We start with your already known The heart of the Empire. If you didn't participate during last week, now's the moment! Very interesting new vocabulary for the people that did it then, don't miss the chance of learning it too.

Enjoy!
