Intro:
Good day, Voicetubers! Tera here. June has just started. Is everything all right? How many cups of coffee do you rely on to carry yourself all the way from January to June? Well, if you find the number considerable and dare not have it counted, you are not alone. Just like you and me, a lot of people worldwide consume caffeine for energy every day. But, have you ever wondered how much caffeine is too much? What is considered drinking too much coffee? Find out if you need to curb your consumption through today’s video.

And today’s sentence is…

Featured sentence: According to at least two observational studies, you have to drink at least nine cups of coffee a day to put yourself at risk of arrhythmia.

Tips:
at least: since "t" and "l" in the second word have the same place of articulation, when we speak this phrase a bit quicker, we tend not to pronounce the letter "t".
observational: five syllables with the stress on the third one. "ob" is /ɑːb/, "s" has a /z/ sound, and the vowel in "va" is /ey/. Add up the suffix "-tion" and "-al", we get "ob-ser-va-tion-al".
cups of: there’s a liking between "cups" and "of".
arrhythmia: three syllables with the stress on the second one. "a" is /ə/, "rrhyth" all falls into a syllable, /rɪð/, and "mia" is /mi.ə/. "a-rrhyth-mia." This word means a medical condition in which the heart does not beat with a regular rhythm, or at the normal rate.

Vocab:

def: involving watching someone or something carefully and closely, in order to learn something
觀察的

def: the activity of examining a subject in detail in order to discover new information

Outro:
So, for those coffeeholic, congrats! You are not likely to overdose on coffee. But still, don’t take in more than four to five cups a day ‘cause you might start to experience some nasty side effects, and that shouldn’t be our initial intention, right? Remember, eating or drinking too much or too little can both negatively affect the body, even if it is water. Balance is the key to everything! By the way, if you would like to know more about how coffee affects brains, feel free to also check out another video featuring the relationship between coffee and our brains. I’ll put the link down below in my transcript. This is Tera. I’ll see you in the next episode. Have a nice day.
