Hey everybody, Alisha here. Today we're gonna to talk about Thanksgiving and some Thanksgiving related vocabulary words. So let's get started.

大家好, 我是Alisha。今天我要介紹感恩節, 還有跟感恩節相關的詞彙。我們開始吧！

Thanksgiving is a national holiday in America.

It might be holiday in your country as well. You might have something similar to Thanksgiving.

你們的國家可能也有類似感恩節的國定假日。

Basically it's a holiday which is well known for eating turkey and large, large quantities of other foods, which are really hearty.

基本上, 這個節日以吃火雞和大啖豐盛的美食而聞名。

A lot of families choose to get together.

People come from all over the country to enjoy a Thanksgiving meal with their family members and friends in some cases.

有些會特地從其他國家前往家人和朋友的所在地, 一起享用感恩節大餐。

Thanksgiving is the 4th Thursday of every November, right?

感恩節是每年11月的第四個星期四, 對吧？

Next is the word turkey. Turkey is a big bird, which we almost, I would say, exclusively eat at Thanksgiving.

下一個單字是火雞。火雞是一種大型的鳥類, 我個人認為我們通常只會在感恩節吃火雞。

It's delicious. It makes you sleepy if you eat a lot of it.

它非常美味。吃太多會讓你昏昏欲睡。

Here is a picture of President Obama pardoning a turkey. Why do we do this?

這是一張歐巴馬總統赦免火雞的照片。我們為什麼要做這種事？

Look at – his daughter is in the background facepalming. Oh, that's funny.

你看, 他的女兒在後面用手捂著臉。真有趣！

So, the president pardons a turkey every Thanksgiving to, I guess, show the turkey that it's not going to be slaughtered.

總統每年都會赦免一隻火雞, 我猜是想讓火雞知道牠們不會被宰來吃。

All of its wrong doings are forgiven. And my favorite Thanksgiving food is turkey.

它的過錯都將獲得饒恕。我最喜歡的感恩節食物是火雞。

The next word is cornucopia. This is something that you only really see around Thanksgiving time.

下一個單字是豐饒之角。這只有在感恩節才會看到。

It looks kind of like a horn, it's a horn-shaped thing, and it usually has fresh fruits and maybe vegetables inside.

它的形狀看起來有點像羊角, 裡面通常裝滿新鮮水果或蔬菜。

According to this, it says it's a symbol of plenty.

根據這裡的說法, 它是豐饒的象徵。

So, whatever it is full of, it's usually just kind of overflowing with that.

所以不管裡面裝的是什麼, 通常都會滿出來。

It's to signify that you have a lot of, you know, food. You have enough of something.

它代表你有很多食物。代表某物相當充沛豐富。

So that's something you might see around Thanksgiving time.

所以這是感恩節期間你可能會看到的東西。

My mom puts out a cornucopia of vegetables and fruits every year at Thanksgiving dinner.

每年的感恩節晚餐, 我媽都會在豐饒之角中裝滿蔬菜和水果。

Another good word to know is cranberry sauce. This is a really, really popular dish at Thanksgiving.

另一個實用的單字是蔓越莓醬。這道菜在感恩節非常、非常地受歡迎。

It's more of a dessert in my mind anyway. It's jelly that's made of cranberries and it's really sweet.

對我來說, 它比較像一道甜點。它是用蔓越莓做成的果凍, 味道很甜。

Some people like to top it with whipped cream. Different families have different recipes.

有些人喜歡在上面淋上鮮奶油。食譜因家庭而異。

It's pretty well known and it goes really well with Turkey.

這道菜很有名, 而且配火雞很好吃。

So give it a try if you see it. Cranberry sauce is my brother's favorite Thanksgiving dish.

下一個單字是清教徒。清教徒指那些從英國來到現在的美國的人。

And you might have seen historical pictures of them.

People like to make fun of the fact that they had buckles on their hats.

人們喜歡拿他們帽子上的扣環說笑。

They had big pointy black hats in a lot of the pictures in children's history books.

在兒童歷史書籍的照片中, 他們帶著又大又尖的黑帽子。
