Oh,wow, I would think this is a good place to sneak in a phrasal verb here and there too, which would kind of go under informal vocab right? But... exactly.
哦,哇,我想这也是一个在这里或那里可以偷偷加入一个短语动词的好地方,这也算是非正式词汇的一种吧?但是……没错。
Yeah, and how can our listeners sort of ...I don't know, sometimes it's hard to just spontaneously throw in a random slang or idiom or vocabulary term.
是的,而且我们的听众如何能够……我不知道,有时候很难自然而然地突然插入一个随机的俚语或习语或词汇术语。
How can they get themselves to do that to throw that in there? Yeah, totally.
他们怎么能做到,把词语扔进去呢?是的,完全正确。
I would use the more applicable common ones, like what we mentioned using super to describe adjectives.
我会使用更适用的常见的那些,就像我们提到的使用“very”来描述形容词。
You can use that in like any answer you can seriously just use super, just use super all the time.
你可以在任何答案中使用那个,你真的可以一直使用“very”,一直使用“very”。
No, it's emmm, I think I think it's a good idea to watch some sitcoms if you don't hang out with Americans every day and you know I'm sure a lot of you can't, because you're just they're not around you.
不,嗯,我觉得,如果你不是每天都和美国人一起出去玩,那么看一些情景喜剧是个好主意,而且我相信你们很多人都做不到,因为美国人不在你身边。
So, listen to us on TV, watch a sitcom and maybe write down something that you noticed, Something you know that you think was interesting, and just have a short list, a small list.
所以,在电视上听我们说,看一部情景喜剧,也许可以写下你注意到的东西,你知道的,那些你认为有趣的东西,只需要列出一个简短的清单,一个小清单。
I would say no more than 10 words that you think you could use in normal speaking. Oh, I like that.
我得说不超过10个你认为在正常说话中可以使用的词。哦,我喜欢这样。
I think that's a good strategy, because it's easy to get overwhelmed and if we have a list of a hundred slang terms that we can use, we won't use any of them. right exactly exactly. I know I've seen students do that so often.
我认为这是一个很好的策略,因为如果我们有一个可以使用的一百个俚语术语的列表,我们会不知所措。我们不会使用其中任何一个。 对,完全正确。 我经常看到学生这样做。
Because wow, people are so motivated and they just create these vocabulary lists that go on for pages.
因为,哇,人们的积极性很高,他们会创建这些词汇表,而且会有好几页。
And if I just point to one word on that list you are not gonna know what it means because you can't remember a thousand new words.
如果我只是指着那个列表上的一个单词,你不会知道它的意思,因为你记不住一千个新单词。
Yeah, there's a certain addiction to lists, I think for students sometimes, but one thing that I want to say about listening, you know, even if you can't,as we said, you can't necessarily hang out with American people,you know, I have some students in New York and what they do is they just eavesdrop on people on the subway.
是的,我认为有时候学生对清单有一定的上瘾,但关于听力,我想说的一件事是,即使你不能,正如我们所说,你不一定能和美国人一起出去玩,你知道,我在纽约有一些学生,他们所做的就是在地铁上偷听别人说话。
Oh my gosh, totally, that's such a good idea. Yeah, you can do it. I mean we all do it anyways. right? as native speakers sometimes . you're not supposed to say it.
哦,我的天哪,完全正确,这真是个好主意。是的,你可以这么做。我的意思是,反正我们都这么做。对吧?作为母语人士,有时候你不应该这么说。
I know, God, revealing secrets here, but it's more interesting than your book sometimes.
我知道,上帝,我在这里泄露了秘密,但有时候这比你的书更有趣。
So just jump on the subway in your local in your city, or you know, the bus station or some public place and just sit and observe and listen. for sure. Yeah, I mean one of my favorite things to do is just people watch in general.
所以,就在你所在城市的当地地铁上,或者你知道的,公交车站或一些公共场所,坐下来观察和倾听。肯定的。是的,我的意思是,我最喜欢做的事情之一就是观察人。
So, if you're fortunate enough to be in an English speaking country, then just take like 20-30 minutes and hang out in a public place. yeah yeah.
所以,如果你足够幸运,身处一个说英语的国家,那就花20到30分钟,在公共场所逛逛。是的,是的。
Or even if you're not in an English speaking country, you know,If you live in Tokyo, go to Namban, right? We know. That's where all the international people hang out Namban right? Totally there's the one. What is it?
或者即使你不在一个说英语的国家,你知道,如果你住在东京,去Namban,对吧?我们知道那是所有国际友人都去的地方,对吧?Namban?是的。那是什么地方?
Yeah, there's gonna be an X hang out in any city these days, so if you find like a running club for example, or I'm thinking of the Hash House Harriers, I don't know. if you know. Interesting. I haven't heard about that.
是的,这些天在任何城市都会有聚会,所以如果你找到一个跑步俱乐部,或者我想到的是Hash House Harriers,我不知道。如果你知道的话。很有趣。我没听说过。
Yeah, it's and English speaking mostly expat running club.
是的,这是一个主要由外籍人士组成的英语跑步俱乐部。
That's in pretty much every city around the world now. it seems like very cool.
那在现在世界上的几乎每一个城市里。它看起来非常酷。
But they meet up once a week and go for like crazy runs in the countryside or around the city and that's an awesome way to get to know some really cool British, Australian, American friends and English interesting and we know that we tend to learn really well.
但是他们每周都会聚一次,然后在乡村或城市周围一起疯狂的跑步,这是一个很棒的方式去认识一些非常酷的英国、澳大利亚、美国朋友,并且学点有趣的英语,通过这种方法,我们往往学得很好。
At least I learn really well when I'm moving physically. That's why I think podcast learning is so amazing. I don't know if that's just me or that's everyone...but physical movement does something to your brain, right?
至少我在跑步时学得非常好。这就是为什么我认为通过听播客学习效果如此惊人。我不知道这是不是只是我,还是大家都这样,但身体运动对你的大脑有影响,对吧?
You get more oxygen to your brain and therefore you'll remember those conversations you have if you can have a conversation while you run of course I don't. Yeah, I think the best part is after the run.
你会给大脑提供更多氧气,因此你会记住你进行过的对话,当然如果你能在跑步时进行对话的话,我做不到。是的,我认为最好的时候是跑步之后。
Yeah. so well, that's another topic that we could get into next time, but thank you so much, Jessica. This has been just fantastic.
是的。那么,这是我们下次可以深入探讨的另一个话题,但非常感谢你,杰西卡。这真是太棒了。

所以有太多的建议,有太多的事情要谈,所以我确定我们今天还没有说完。哦,不。不管怎样,听众们想了解更多的话,请告诉我们。
