Hey Bob, I've been learning these words for two weeks, but I still find it difficult to memorize them.

Bob，我學這些單字已經兩個禮拜了，但我仍然覺得要背下這些單字很困難。

So I'd like to ask for your advice on how to learn vocabulary more effectively.

所以我想問你有沒有什麼更有效學單字的建議。

- Let me take a look, Daniel. - Sure.

- 讓我看看。- 好的。

How did you find these words?

你怎麼找到這些單字？

Well, I've been reading passages and articles from different sources, including newspapers, magazines, and websites.

我一直都有在閱讀不同來源的文章，包含報紙、雜誌、和網站。

I just picked the words randomly from those sources.

我只是從這些資源中隨機選單字。

Do you know how to use them?

那你知道怎麼使用這些字嗎？

Not really.

並不是很懂。

But I've checked their meanings from the dictionary.

但是我都會從字典查意思。

Can you remember the meaning of each of them?

你可以記起來每個字的意思嗎？

Look! These words come from ten different sources, so they're going to be used in different ways.

聽好，這些單字來自於十個不同出處，所以它們會有各式不同的用法。

How do you know they're common words that you need to learn?

你怎麼知道這些是你需要學習的基本單字呢？

Oh, I just picked the ones that I don't know.

我只是選出我不知道的單字。

I suggest you choose words that you want to learn from one source.

我建議你從一個來源選擇你要學的字彙。

That way, you can learn them in context.

這樣一來，你可以從上下文去學習單字。

When you're reading there are some words that you can guess from the context, but there are other words that you really need to write down in groups so that you can memorize them.

當你在閱讀時，你可以從文章中猜測字的意思，但是有些字彙你要分組記下來，以便記憶它們。

But how can I organize the words and phrases that I want to learn?

但要如何整理我要學的字和片語呢？

Well, you could classify them in alphabetical order or, group them according to the part they play in a sentence.

你可以用字母排序來分類，或者根據它們在句子中的詞性來分類。

So, verbs, nouns, adjectives and so forth.

像是動詞、名詞、形容詞等等。

You could group them by meaning, or by topic or even by level of difficulty.

你可以依意思或主題來分組，或甚至依它們難易程度。

Ahh, I see, thanks.

我懂了。 謝謝。

- I'll find out more about these words by checking them out in a dictionary. - That's a good idea.

- 我會查字典來找出這些字彙相關資訊。- 那是個好方法。

That way, you can learn how to use the words correctly.

那樣你可以學習如何正確地使用字彙。

Let's have a look at the words you've learned next time.

下次讓我們看看你學了什麼單字。

Sure, thanks a lot, Bob.

沒問題，Bob，非常謝謝你。

- Hi Bob! - Hi!

- 嗨，Bob！- 嗨！

Thanks a lot for your advice.

- 謝謝你的建議。

I've now learned quite a lot of words in different contexts; they are all in here.

我現在已經在不同的文章脈絡中學習到許多單字。它們都在這裡。

That's great. I can see you've grouped the words according to different contexts.

很棒，我看到你根據不同內容去分類單字。

Do you know how to use these words now?

你現在知道怎麼使用這些字嗎？

Yes.

知道。

I've checked the words in a dictionary to find out their word class, pronunciation, meaning, and how to use them in different situations.

我已經查了字典找出它們的詞性、發音、意思以及如何在不同情境下使用這些字彙。

I've also put down some example sentence structures to help me remember them better.

我也記下一些例句以便幫我好好記得。

Now I understand how to use each of the words correctly.

現在我了解怎麼正確地使用每個字。

Very good.

非常好。

Don't forget to recycle the vocabulary, too.

不要忘了要複習這些字。

Use the words you've learned as much as you can.

盡可能地去用你已學過的單字。

Yeah, I'll try to use the words I've learned by reading, listening, speaking and writing about the same topic for a period of time.

好，我會試著透過閱讀、聽力、口說還有我會保持一段時間，寫相同主題，去使用那些我學到的單字。

Yes, you'll find that the same words keep coming up in similar contexts, so that means you'll be more familiar with how to use them correctly.

是的，你會發現相同的單字會一直出現在相似的上下文中，所以那代表著你將會更熟練地知道如何正確使用它。

Thank you Bob.

Bob 謝謝你。

- See you later! - Bye!

- 下次見！- 掰掰！
