Hello again, VoiceTubers! This’s your host Steve back to host the second pronunciation challenge. I’m really excited to spend more time with all of you and I hope you’re ready to have fun at the same time ‘cause that’s the goal of today. Today’s challenge comes from a video that warn people about trust these successful people too much. I’m not sure how many of you guys have read [[?help(n.)]]books or maybe watched some [[?]] videos , or maybe even listened to some [[?]] podcast. I know I’ve before. I really like the podcast called [[?the out of the ?memory]] which gives you all of cool information, [[had better yourself, and sort of comes from others people’s lives. I’ve also read books on money, [[?had better manage]] on money, how to become more healthy. So I definitely think it’s really great to have all of these knowledges out there. And be able to read about the ways that we can improve ourselves. But I do think there’s no one book ,or one TV show ,or one podcast that can make all of our lives better. You know, it’s really hard to say this’s something everyone should do. So I really think we should be skeptical, sometimes, information that seems is too good to be true, information that might not be realistic. Anyways, let’s get today’s pronunciation challenge. Today’s sentence says: Yet, it’s only when you factor in both happily married and bitterly divorced that you can get a better picture of what’s really going on.
1-1. factor (n.) 因素，要素 It means one of the elements contributing to a particular result or situation.
* The wide variety of fruit was one of the biggest factors in me deciding to move to Taiwan.
I know that’s really true, I do love the fruit in Taiwan. But I don’t that’s really true, I think the reason I moved to Taiwan was more because of the hiking. So the hiking is the bigger factor for me than the fruit. So you can see factor is using as a noun, it’s something is countable. You can say one factor, two factors, or fifteen factors. We don’t usually say numbers like that, we’ll say it’s a factor ,or there are many factors. So when you move to somewhere, you might lead to think the factors. Maybe you are a city person ,so it with factoring to whether you move to a big city or country, maybe you don’t like hot weather, maybe you like the food somewhere, maybe you like the culture somewhere. These are factors you can use to decide where to move.
1-2. factor (v.) 列為重要因素，納入 * When trying to find a new job, you need to factor in a lot of stuff like the environment, money, benefits ,and location.
So it’s a similar meaning, but we’re saying you need to say factor in . So factor usually comes with the word in, factor in, when it used as a verb. But basically, I’m just saying the meaning. Feel free you leave any questions on the difference uses of factor below.
2. bitterly (adv.) 痛苦地，憤怒地 It means hard to bear, grievous , distressful.
* The couple fought bitterly over whether or not they should get a cat or a dog.
Maybe the wife likes dogs, the husband likes dogs. I wanna a cat, I wanna a dog. So they are bitterly fighting. You can see this’s an adverb, it’s talking about the word fight or fought in this case using past tense. So bitterly, fight, maybe this’s really angry that they’re yelling each other, hopefully, they don’t hit each other. This’s a bad fight, it’s not like: yeah, I wanna a cat, I wanna a dog, uh, Okay. They’re actually having a bad fight over whether [[?she or he had ]] a cat or dog. It’s a bitter fight. This word towards means something like bad or really ugly.
* Japan and China had a bitterly fight in the World War ll.
That always have to go with fight though, it could refer to something like: * I had a bitter struggle to climb the mountain. It means I had a really hard time climbing that mountain. It was a bitter struggle. It wasn’t a little bit hard, it was like really hard.
3-1. divorced (adj.) 離婚的，離異的 It means any formal separation of husband and wife according to established custom.
3-2. divorce (v.) 離婚/ (n.)離婚 * My parents divorced because they didn’t get along and hardly saw each other.
Maybe we have some listeners out there with divorced parents. Unfortunately, this tends to happen quite a bit in the West. Now, I wanna point out that divorce requires a marriage. If a boyfriend and a girlfriend break up, that’s not a divorce. We just say they broke up, or they had a breakup. But if the husband and wife, and they’re married, and then they separate, that’s a divorce. So divorce only applies to a married couple. If you’re not married, you can’t divorce. You have to be married. My parents actually divorced when I was 4 years old. I don’t really remember that. I was kinda weird to travel to different states to see my family. I would often go to New York for the summer to see my mom, and in the school year, I would actually stay with my dad[[?of in main]], which is the state where I’m from.
So I’m curious: how is divorce [[?pro?]] in your country? It’s common? It’s rare? Does it carry a stigma(恥辱)? I would like to learn more your culture, because of unfortunately, divorce is common in the USA, but with that said there’re still many happily married couples. So hopefully, divorce rates will go down. Well, that does today’s episode. I hope you enjoy the pronunciation challenge. Today’s words are a little hard, I’m sure you can learn them all. Leave your comments, questions, and example sentences below. And I look forward to seeing you all in next episode. Cheers!57

Divorce is quite not common in Asia countries because we spend a lot of time to get along with lovers before we really decide to marry.
