Hi there, my name is Emma and thank you for clicking. So for today's lesson, we're going to look at what not to say to women.
大家好，我是Emma，欢迎大家点击观看我的视频。在今天的课程中，我们将学习不该跟女性说的话。
So this lesson might be a little bit funny, it might be a little bit comical but these things are true.
本期课程可能有点诙谐，但事实确实如此。
I've done some research for this lesson. I've actually asked many women I know the things that they do not like it when people say to them.
我为了本期课程做了一些研究，去询问了很多我认识的女性，她们不喜欢别人对她们说的话。
So what happens if you say these things? You know, maybe nothing will happen, maybe it will make somebody feel uncomfortable
如果你说了这些话，会发生什么呢？可能什么都不会发生，可能听的人会感到不适，
worst case scenario for some of these, they're more serious,
最糟糕，更严重的情况是，
if you're at work and you say some of these things, it could lead to you, maybe losing your job or having some sort of trouble.
如果在工作场合中，你说了这些话，你可能会丢了工作，或惹上麻烦。
So some of these are funny, some of them are more serious but they're all things that many women so not all women
有些很有趣，有些很严肃，但这些都是很多女性，不是所有女性
but many women find uncomfortable. So let's get started with this list.
但很多女性都会感到不舒服。让我们开始吧。
So number one, pregnancy.
1. 怀孕。
So one thing that many women feel very uncomfortable about is if you ask them if they're pregnant, especially if they're not pregnant,
让很多女性感到不适的话是，询问她们是不是怀孕了，尤其是她们并没有怀孕，
and believe me for many of the women I asked this was something that has has happened to them
在我询问的很多女性中，这就是她们身上发生的事情
where maybe they have a little bit of a belly, maybe not, maybe it's just the shirt they're wearing
她们可能只是有点小肚子，可能是她们裙子的原因，
but somebody comes up to them and says, oh when are you due or maybe they say, are you expecting? are you pregnant? are you going to have a baby?
但有人就会跟她们说，你什么时候生，你是不是怀孕了之类的。
These are all things you shouldn't ask women even if the woman has a very large belly,
这些都是不应该问的，即便这位女士肚子有些挺，
you're pretty sure she's pregnant, just in case, this is something that's better not to ask women okay?
即便你非常确信她怀孕了，但最好不要这么问她们。
Number two, sort of ties in with number one, weight.
2. 和第一个有些关联——体重。
So how much does a woman weigh? Usually you wouldn't ask a woman this
询问女性的体重，通常大家不会这么直白的问，
but there are other things too that a lot of women may find uncomfortable.
但还有其他一些事情会让很多女性感到不舒服。
So for example, if you see a woman eating a lot of food and she's a little bit overweight, it's not a good idea to comment on this.
例如，如果你看到一位女性吃得比较多，她有点胖，最好不要因此评头论足。
It's just in general practice mentioning weight to women whether they're skinny whether they're fat, whether whatever, it's just not a good idea.
通常提及体重，不管胖瘦，都不是好主意。
It makes a lot of women feel uncomfortable and awkward.
这会让很多女性觉得不适和尴尬。
Okay. Number three, period and PMS.
3. 经期（PMS）。
So the period is something that happens to women once a month and for some women, their mood changes during this time.
对一些女性来说，每月一次的经期，她们的心情会出现变化。
Maybe they get a little bit angry, their mood might change but you should never bring this up, especially in a workplace environment.
可能有些容易生气，她们的情绪可能会发生改变，但你绝不应该提及此事，尤其是在工作环境中。
If a woman's angry towards you, maybe there's a reason, it doesn't necessarily have to do with PMS
如果一位女性对你感到生气，生气是有原因的，不一定和PMS有关，
but regardless, you should never ask her, are you PMSing. Is this why you're behaving this way? are you on your period?
但不管怎样，你都不应该问她，你是不是来月经啦？是不是因为这个你才生气的，等等。
These are questions that you should never ask a woman especially in the workplace.
这些问题你都不应该问，尤其是在工作场合。
So number four, sweetheart, honey, sugar plums, cupcake. These are what we call terms of endearment.
4. 亲爱的、宝贝......。这些都是亲昵的称呼。
So they're ways to show that you really like someone and usually people say this to their wives, their daughters, their girlfriends, maybe they're sisters
以表示你真的很喜欢某人，通常会用这些来称呼自己的妻子、女儿、女友或者姐妹，
but these are things that you should never say to women you work with, unless you know them very very well.
但绝不应该这么称呼女性同事，除非你们是老友。
In general, a lot of women, professional women might take these terms offensively.
通常，很多女性，职业女性会觉得这些称呼很讨厌。
So try not to say, hey, sweetheart, can you pass me that file? No. It's better to just say, excuse me, can you pass me this file?
所以不要说，嗨，亲爱的，你能把那份文件递给我吗？不要这说，最好是说，不好意思，你能把这份文件地给我吗？
So try to avoid these words especially in the workplace.
所以要避免这些词，尤其是在工作场合。
