每日口說挑戰什麼是歷史？ (What is History for?)

Day 262

要從歷史中學到教訓是吧？
還沒學會，表示教訓還不夠多。
夠痛了就會改了...

There’s an annoying saying that goes: THOSE WHO DON’T KNOW HISTORY / ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT. But that’s suggesting / the only thing history is full of / is mistakes. Yet it's as fair to say, those who don't know history / won't be able to IMPROVE the present.

錄完才發現很多人都有分享句型結構了，可以去參考Leeway和Huahua的錄音。

==這是西班牙文教室的分隔線==

beber 喝
bebida 飲料
agua 水
zumo de naranja 柳橙汁
limón 檸檬
cerveza 啤酒

Quiero beber un poco de agua.
我想喝一點水。

◆打通任督二脈：But that’s suggesting (that) the only thing (which) history is full of is mistakes.

There’s an annoying saying that goes: THOSE WHO DON’T KNOW HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT. But that’s suggesting the only thing history is full of is mistakes. Yet it's as fair to say, those who don't know history won't be able to IMPROVE the present.

有句惱人的俗諺這樣說：「對歷史一無所知的人，終將宿命般地重蹈那些過錯。」但這句話隱含的意思是，歷史總是充滿錯誤。比較公允的說法是，「對歷史一無所知的人，無法改善現況。」

-------------------------------------------------

我個人比較喜歡寫成"the only thing history is full of, is mistakes." 另外yet常用在轉折語氣上，所以寫成"Yet, it's fair to say" 似乎也是蠻常見的作法，不知道眾高手的看法如何呢？

這次是我喜歡的歷史題材 :)

今天的音樂是選自2007年動畫電影<貝武夫>，改編自古英文史詩<貝武夫>。這部超過3000行的長篇史詩完成於西元八世紀左右，相當於中國的唐朝中期，當時使用的古英文也稱為盎格魯撒克遜語，和現代英文比起來不管是文法、拼法、辭彙都很不一樣，總之我一定看不懂就是了...

但這篇史詩可說是西方奇幻文學的始祖，J.R.Tolkien也受到不少啟發，進而創作出<魔戒>系列巨作。

今天也剛好是我生日XD～ Enjoy it! =)

■doom[dum] 使註定 死亡；毀滅；厄運
■doomed[dumd] 註定失敗（或滅亡、毀滅）的

有一句讓人反感的俗語說道：「對歷史一無所知的人註定會重蹈覆轍。」但這句話的言下之意是，歷史充滿了錯誤。而比較公正的說法是，「那些對歷史一無所知的人，將無法改善現況。」
【心得】我高中歷史爛到被老師約談，所以千萬不要問我歷史，我連自己的歷史都記不清楚了(真擔心以後會老年痴呆> <")
