每日口說挑戰坐車滑手機滑到想吐？到底暈車怎麼造成 (Motion Sickness - What is it?)

“She overcame her problem of motion sickness, For his love to travel” - Shriya Krishnan

How’s it going, everyone! Hubert here, with a brand new episode of the Pronunciation Challenge! I’m sure you may have noticed, but I try to pick video topics that relate back to me! I feel like the Pronunciation Challenge has become sort of my diary with all you listeners finding out a new detail about myself every episode. Here’s another detail, I get motion sickness. What does that mean? Motion sickness is when you feel sick when traveling by boat, car, plane, or train! I used to always throw up whenever my dad drove me places as a kid. Once I started driving, the motion sickness went away. It went away only when I was driving though. When other people drove me around, I’d get motion sickness again. Why is that? Let’s get to the featured sentence before I tell you the answer!

Today’s featured sentence:
But after only moments of reading, you start feeling dizzy, fatigued, and nauseous.

But after only moments of reading, you start feeling dizzy, fatigued, and nauseous.


Ok, now time for the Pronunciation Tips.


For the first word, we have
Feeling
Two syllables.
I can’t stress this enough but all my students always mispronounce this word. Stop switching the E and i sounds! Almost every student I’ve had so far, pronounce “feeling” as “filling” and “filling” as “feeling”. The trick is to say the letter “e” and stretch it out. “FEEEEEELING”. Feeling.

Next up, we have
Fatigued
Two syllables
“FA” has a short U sound and “TIGUED” actually has a long E sound. Again, stretch the E sound to get “fateeeeeg”. Fatigued.

Lastly, we have,
Nauseous
Two syllables.
With “NAU” all you have to do is say "all" with an N in front instead. “SEOUS” if spelt out like how it should sound, would be “SHUS”. Nauseous.

Moving onto Vocabulary!

The first word is:
1. Moment
Definition
a very short period of time
Used in a sentence you could say,
“This will forever be a moment in time for me.”

Next word,
2. Fatigued
Definition
tired
Used in a sentence, you could say:
“I’ve been feeling really fatigued lately due to a lack of sleep.”

And lastly,
3. Nauseous
Definition:
feeling as if you might vomit
Used in a sentence, you could say:
“Riding in a car too long gets me nauseous.”

So apparently, the wise Google says that drivers don’t get motion sickness because they are able to anticipate (know what’s coming up or what’s going to happen next) where they are going so their bodies won’t be confused. Does this mean I need to learn how to operate a boat so I won’t get seasick? What about airplanes? Maybe I should just stay home instead. Oh, I’m already doing that with this pandemic! We’re 2 years into this thing already! Time flies!

Alright, that about does it for today. Make sure you get your recordings in and it also looks like we have some new hosts on the Pronunciation Challenge! Give them your support and record some featured sentences for them as well! Until the next episode, bye!

原來英式發音跟美式發音的nauseous不一樣呢，媽媽QQ

But after only moments of reading, you start feeling dizzy, fatigued, and nauseous. Sounds like motion sickness.
但是只閱讀一會兒，你開始感到頭暈、疲倦與噁心想吐，聽起來像是動暈症。
