HELP ME WITH ONE VIDEO FOR TRANSCRIPTION
|
Hello,
I�m preparing an engineering student for his exam next September. Could you
help me for the transcription of this video on youtube ? I understand it from a general viewpoint but I cannot get every single word and that is my purpose. Any native speaker over there? Thank you so much
in advance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S0iomScEx0

HI. Although I �m not a native speaker I tried and I almost got it all apart from two words. Hope that helps a bit! Diana Part 1:
Randy and Kathy
Clark don�t wear animal skins and walk (a)round barefoot all day and Barney and
Betty Rubble don�t live next door. But the Clarks do have one thing in common
with the Flintstones: they live in a cave.
Randy and I
are doing a lots of camping out in the (place name?)?
Part 2:
� but a not
son next door neighbor was building his cave and they asked him to do the same for them. So 15
years after they bought the property, they moved in.
This house
is very much alive, it�s in the living rock of the mountain and it has a
wonderful atmosphere of security; it�s a life house: the changing light of the
day and the (eh) environment of the
outsight is integrated with the inside.
Part 3:
A fifty-three
hundred feet in elevation the cave house is a marvel on the outside, too. There�s
three main pools on the creek and they are great for swimming, there�s (???patheos/
paliads???) all around them great rock work. It�s a natural habitat for tree
frogs and kinds of aquatic breeding; it�s a wonderful birding area, 79 species
of birds here: great wildlife.
Ask Kathy
what her favourite part of the cave house is�

Great work,babystudent. I have tried to find the missing words: for the first part (the place name)I understand --------powers. Part 2:outside(instead of outsight)is integrated with the inside. Part 3:sorry,quite difficult to understand,perhaps :patio? I hope it will help. Bye! Titine |

I have already given the names of the mountains she mentions, so I don �t get it, Juan, do you think I got them wrong? I know I got them right for sure. The place is in Arizona and those are the names of the mountains in Arizona which have Native American origin. BTW Jayho, to me it sounds as if she uses past tense when speaking about camping bc that was the story about how they found the cave to make their home. Sophia
