Have you ever been part of a conversation with someone where it feels like they just cant wait to leave? You know theyre looking around like they want to run away or whats happening outside the window is way more interesting than what youre saying.
你是否曾与某人进行对话的时候,感觉他们迫不及待地想离开呢?他们在四处张望,感觉他们想逃跑一样,或者窗外发生的事情比你说的话更有趣。
Maybe theres a lot of sighing. Oh my goodness, it is so uncomfortable but whose fault is this?
也许有很多叹息声。哦,我的天哪,太不舒服了,但这是谁的错呢?
Do you remember at the beginning of this video? Lets recap.
你还记得这个视频的开头吗?让我们回顾一下。
Hello, Im Emma. I am from mmmEnglish.
你好,我是艾玛。我来自美味英语频道。
That was all my fault. It was pretty dull.
那都是我的错。非常无聊。
Did you notice that I used more formal language when I spoke? I said hello instead of my usual hey and I added some unnecessary pauses instead of just allowing the sentence to flow.
你有没有注意到我说话时使用了更正式的语言呢?我说的是你好,而不是我通常说的嘿,我添加了一些不必要的停顿,而不是让句子流畅地表达出来。
I used the passive voice instead of the active voice. My tone was flat and monotonous and I had little facial expression but when I changed the greeting to something more relaxed and conversational, the mood completely changed, didnt it?
我使用的是被动语态而不是主动语态。我的语气平淡单调,脸上几乎没有表情,但是当我把问候变得更加轻松,更加对话性的话,感觉就完全变了,对吧?
It went from being stiff and formal to being relaxed and fun. When I changed from a passive voice to an active voice it helped you to feel more involved like we were going to be doing this, working on this together and we are.
从僵硬和正式变成了轻松和有趣。当我从被动语态变为主动语态时,可以让你有更多的参与感,我们接下来就要这么做,一起努力。
All of these are really small subtle changes but they can make a big difference when youre speaking. So Im going to show you a few common phrases, maybe a little dull phrases and responses and then give you a few tips on how you can improve them, how you can make your conversations more engaging, fun and help people to really love speaking with you.
所有的都是非常细微的细微变化,但当你说出来时,会有很大的不同。我将向大家展示一些常用短语,也许是一些非常乏味的短语和回答,然后就如何改进它们、如何使你的对话更有吸引力、更有趣并让别人喜欢上和你说话提供一些小窍门。
So a really common question, one that you have to answer all the time is "How are you?" but if you respond with "Im fine", well, youre not really making anyone want to hang around and talk with you, right? So a better way to respond might be "Im great, thanks!
一个非常常见的问题,你总是在回答的问题就是:你好吗? ,但如果你回答我很好的话好吧,其实你并没有想让别人和你说话,对吧?所以更好的回应方式可能是:我很好,谢谢!
I went to the spa today and had a lovely time. How about you?"
我今天去做 spa 了,非常开心。你呢?
But why is the second response so much better? Ill tell you.
但是为什么第二个回答要好得多呢?我来告诉你。
It is so hard to have a good conversation with someone if you are responding with just two words and these two words are said so often, there is nothing interesting or inspiring about the conversation and no desire to continue, right?But remember, our goal is to have great English conversations.
如果你只用两个词来回应的话,那么和某人很好地将对话进行下去是非常困难的,而且大家经常说这两个词,所以这说明对话中没有任何有趣的东西,也让人感觉不想继续,对吧?但请记住哦,我们的目标是进行精彩的英语对话。
You want to invite that person to keep speaking with you. I also added some extra details and asked a follow-on question which gives them a chance to respond to you.
你想让那个人继续和你说话。我还添加了一些额外的细节,并提出了一个后续问题,让他们有机会回复你。
I also used a really easy going friendly tone, I had a smile on my face. It gets the conversation off to a great start.
我也用了一种非常随和友好的语气,我的脸上带着微笑。它让对话有了一个良好的开端。
All right what about those times when someone tells you about something that theyve done, something really fun and you do think that its great. So you probably know, youve got heaps of responses up your sleeve. You could say "Thats cool".
好的,当有人告诉你他们做过的一些事情,一些非常有趣的事情,并且你也认为这很棒的时候呢?你可能知道,你已经准备好很多回复了。 你可以说:这很酷。
"Well thats nice." But then they look at you and the conversation sort of dies down a little.
哇,很棒呀。但随后他们看了看你,对话有点平淡下去了。
You didnt really say anything wrong but maybe they were hoping you were more enthusiastic and dont forget you really did think their story was great so perhaps a better thing to say might be "Ahh, thats wonderful. When did you start doing that?"
你并没有说错什么,但也许他们希望你更热情一点,不要忘记你确实认为他们的故事很棒,所以也许更好的说法可能是:啊,太棒了。你什么时候开始做的呢?
So why shouldnt you say thats cool or thats nice or thats good, but theyre just words that are used way too often. They can be used for almost anything.
所以你为什么不应该说这很酷或那很好,因为它们使用频率太高了。它们几乎可以用于任何情况。
People get a little bit bored of hearing them. So in this case because you were so impressed or you were so interested or excited about what they had to say, weve got to level up our language to help show that enthusiasm.
听到它们,人们会感觉有点无聊。因此在这种情况下,因为你印象很深刻,或者你对他们说的内容非常感兴趣或感到很兴奋,我们必须提高我们的语言水平来表现出这种热情。
You want to use more interesting adjectives like incredible, wonderful or my favourite that I use all the time is epic. Now epic is a little more casual than the other options but it really does help to show your enthusiasm.
你想使用更有趣的形容词,比如incredible、wonderful,或我一直使用的我最喜欢的形容词是epic。Epic比其他的更随意一些,但它确实有助于展示你的热情。
Now with all of these responses we want to make sure youve got a positive enthusiastic tone, youre excited, right? So get ready to practise after me.
有了这些回复,我们希望确保你表现出了一种积极热情的语气,你很兴奋,对吧?所以准备好跟着我练习吧。
Wow! Thats incredible! When did you start doing that?
哇! 太难以置信了!你什么时候开始的?
Nicely said! Okay so imagine this.
说的很棒!好的,想象一下。
Youre sitting down with your colleague at lunch and you cant wait to tell them about this crazy dream that youve had. You start talking about the dungeons and the dragons and the frogs with wings and fairies that barked, but then you notice theyre actually staring off into the distance and theyre not really interested at all.
你和你的同事一起吃午饭,你迫不及待地想告诉他们你做的这个疯狂的梦。你开始谈论地牢、龙、长着翅膀的青蛙和吠叫的仙女,但随后你注意到人们其实是在盯着远方,他们根本不感兴趣。
I mean, youve been talking about this in a great amount of detail for maybe five minutes now. But theyre not really paying any attention.
我的意思是,你已经非常详细地讨论了这个问题大约有五分钟了。但他们并没有真正把注意力放在上面。
All right so if you want to have a great conversation with someone, telling them a long story about your crazy wild dream is probably not gonna help you get there. Its better to keep your story short and to involve them in some way.
好的,如果你想与某人进行愉快的交谈,向他们讲述有关你疯狂的梦的长篇大论可能不会帮助你实现目标。最好让你的故事简短一点,并以某种方式让听众参与进来。
Ask for their opinion about it, get them in on the discussion. I dreamt about barking fairies last night.
征求他们的意见,让他们参与讨论。我昨晚梦见了吠叫的仙女。
It was a little strange. What do you think it means?
有点奇怪。你觉得是什么意思呢?
Easy, right? I mean, they probably wont know what it means but at least youre not having a one-sided conversation.
很简单吧?他们可能不知道这意味着什么,但至少你没有进行单方面的对话。
Youre inviting them in and that is one of the keys to incredible conversations. Imagine your flatmate has just told you about the long day that theyve had.
你在邀请他们加入进来,这是美妙对话的关键之一。想象一下,你的室友刚刚告诉你他们度过了漫长的一天。
They seem really down, perhaps a little tired. So you say "Dont worry, just be positive!"
他们看起来很沮丧,也许有点累。所以你说:别担心,积极一点!
Now I know that you have good intentions with this but it is a phrase that is used so often, so often it can kind of seem a little insensitive. So instead you could say something like "That sounds like an exhausting day.
我知道你的本意是好的,但这是一个经常使用的短语,看起来有点太漠然了。因此,你可以说:听起来今天很令人筋疲力尽的一天。
Is there anything that I can do to help?" So the first part of the response expresses empathy, it lets them know that you understand how theyre feeling and of course, showing empathy can get someone to open up more.
有什么我可以帮忙的吗?所以回答的第一部分表达了你的同理心,让别人知道你理解他们的感受,当然了,表现出同理心可以让人更加敞开心扉。
It lets them know that you care. When you want to ask about someones day you might simply say "How are you?" or "Hows it going?"
可以让他们知道你在乎他们。当你想询问某人的一天时,你可以简单地说:你好吗或最近怎么样?
But you could also try mixing it up a little bit. Did you have a good day?
但你也可以尝试将其混合起来。你今天过得还好么?
I mean people are so accustomed to hearing "How are you?" that they respond without thinking. How are you?
我的意思是,人们经常听到:你好吗?,所以他们想都不想就回答了。你好吗?
Im fine. Good, thanks. How are you?
我很好。好的,谢谢。你呢?
But remember our goal here is great conversations and making sure our conversation keeps going. So even if we just change the words a little bit and we add something a bit more inquisitive, an upbeat tone then theyll probably change the way that they respond to you as well.
但请记住,我们的目标是进行精彩的对话,并确保我们的对话继续进行。因此,即使我们只是稍微改变一下措辞,并添加一些更具好奇心的感觉,一种乐观的语气,那么他们也可能会改变他们对你的回应方式。
Hey Emma! How you going? Im fine, thanks. And you?
嘿,艾玛! 你怎么样呢?我很好,谢谢。 你呢?
Im fine too. Hey Emma! Have you had a good day so far?
我也很好。嘿,艾玛! 今天过得怎么样呢?
Yeah I had a great day! I went to the beach for a swim and then Ive just finished meeting with the mmmEnglish design team about our new website.
是的,我度过了愉快的一天!我去海滩游泳了,然后我刚刚关于我们的新网站问题与 mmmEnglish 设计团队见面了。
How about you? All right, now Ive got a little challenge for you.
你呢?好的,现在我有一个小挑战要给你。
Youre going to hear three different contexts or different examples of things that people might say to you and I want you to think about the best way to respond in order to keep the conversation going. Try to think of fun, interesting and engaging ways to continue the conversation.
你会听到人们可能对你说三种不同的上下文或不同的案列,我希望你思考一下最好的回应方式,以保持对话的进行。试着想想有趣和引人入胜的方式来继续对话。
Ready? So your friend asks you about a movie that you saw last night.
准备好了吗?你的朋友问你昨晚看的一部电影。
It was a movie that you absolutely loved and you really enjoyed the acting. What kind of thing could you say?
这是一部你很喜欢的电影,你真的很喜欢它的表演。你能说什么?
So I might say: It was fantastic!
所以我可能会说:太棒了!
I really loved the actors. So when someone asks you a question like this, try to change up the words that you use.
我真的很喜欢里面的演员。所以当有人问你这样的问题时,试着改变你使用的词。
Give a little bit more detail to keep things interesting. Now imagine your friend tried skydiving for the first time.
提供更多细节以保持趣味性。现在想象一下你的朋友第一次尝试跳伞。
What would you say to them when they told you about what they did over the weekend? Id say: Thats epic! What was it like?
当他们告诉你他们周末做了什么时,你会对他们说什么?我会说:太棒了! 具体是什么样的呢?
Now the word epic is way cooler than cool. Its not said as often so its more fun and engaging and meaningful and asking that follow-on question helps to keep the conversation going, doesnt it?
Epic这个词比cooler更酷一些。这并不经常说,所以它更有趣、更有吸引力、更有意义,问一些后续的问题有助于保持对话的进行,对吧?
Okay, how about this scenario? Your friend has just told you that they received a low score on their IELTS test.
好吧,这个场景呢?你的朋友刚刚告诉你,他们的雅思考试分数很低。
What would you say? Id say:
你打算说什么?我会说:
IELTS exams are so tough. Im sure many people feel the same way.
雅思考试太难了。我相信很多人都有同样的感觉。
What can I do to help you feel better? When a friend is feeling down or theyve had some bad luck, showing empathy and offering to help shows them that youre listening, it also invites the conversation to keep going, right?
我能做些什么来让你感觉好些呢?当朋友情绪低落或他们运气不好时,表现出同情心并提供帮助可以向他们表明你在认真倾听,这也会帮助对话继续进行,对吧?
Definitely dont show up telling them what they should have done or how they could have done it better. Thats not very helpful at all.
不要告诉他们应该做什么或他们如何做得更好。这毫无帮助。
So thats five boring, dull expressions out the window and five new phrases and tips to keep your conversations going, to keep them interesting. I hope that this video helps you to have longer, more meaningful, more interesting conversations in English.
所以这是应该被抛弃的五个无聊、沉闷的表达方式和五个新的短语和技巧,可以让你的对话继续进行,让对话保持有趣。我希望这个视频能帮助你用英语进行更长、更有意义、更有趣的对话。
