Thanksgiving is the fourth Thursday of November  every year, so the date changes from year to year.

通常情況下，學校和一些企業在週四和週五關門，週末四天。

which is just glorious. Thanksgiving is  basically a meal. History tells us that in 1621  

這只是光榮的。感恩節基本上就是一頓飯。歷史告訴我們，在1621年

the Plymouth colonists and a group of native  Americans, the Wampanoag, shared an autumn harvest  

普利茅斯殖民者和一群美國土著人，萬帕諾格人，共享秋天的收穫

feast that is believed to be one of the first  thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies.

Days of thanksgiving were celebrated throughout  the colonies and later, the states. In 1863,  

殖民地和後來的各州都在慶祝感恩節。1863年，

president Abraham Lincoln  made it a national holiday.

亞伯拉罕-林肯總統把它定為國慶節。

Okay, let's go over a few  words and pronunciations there.  

好了，我們先來看看那裡的幾個單詞和發音。

Lincoln. Notice the second L in his  name is silent. The first N is not the N  

林肯，請注意他名字中的第二個L是沉默的。注意，他名字中的第二個L是沉默的。第一個N不是N

I also used the phrase autumn harvest  feast. Autumn is just another word for fall,  

我還用了秋收盛宴這個詞。秋天只是秋天的另一個詞。

it's one of the four seasons. The T is  a Flap T and the N is silent. Autumn.

是四季之一。T是瓣T，N是沉默。秋天

Harvest is when you gather a crop that you've  been growing, the food is ready to be picked,  

收穫是指當你收割了自己種植的農作物，糧食就可以採摘了。

and you harvest it. So that's a verb, harvest, the  act of gathering or picking your crop. And then

One of the images you'll often see associated  with thanksgiving is a pilgrim, or a pilgrim hat.  

你會經常看到與感恩節相關的一個形象是朝聖者，或者朝聖者的帽子。

A pilgrim refers to one of the group of people  who originally colonized America. But the word  

朝聖者指的是最初殖民美洲的一群人中的一個。但這個詞

also has a broader meaning, someone who journeys,  often to a sacred place for religious reasons.  

也有更廣泛的含義，有人旅行，往往是為了宗教原因去一個神聖的地方。

This kind of a journey is called a pilgrimage.  But in this context, pilgrims refers to the

early colonizers who came from England, settled  in, can you guess the area? New England. And the

men wore hats like this with a buckle on it and  it's become a symbol of thanksgiving in America.

And of course, turkey, which is the main  dish at a typical thanksgiving meal.  

當然，還有火雞，這是典型的感恩節大餐的主菜。

Another symbol of thanksgiving is a  horn-shaped basket called a cornucopia.  

另一個感恩的象徵是一個角形的籃子，叫粟米籃。

Overflowing with autumnal foods. Oh, did you  notice I used the word autumnal, as an adjective.  

溢滿了秋天的食物。哦，你有沒有注意到我用了秋天這個詞，作為一個形容詞。

Autumn, the noun, means fall. And autumnal  means relating to or suggesting autumn.  

秋，名詞，指秋天。而秋的意思是與秋天有關或暗示秋天。

Notice the stress is on the second  syllable and the T is now a true t.  

注意，重音在第二個音節上，T現在是真t。

Autumn, it was a Flap T. Now, autumnal, with  a true t. Also, we now say the n. In autumn,  

秋天，是一個瓣t，現在，秋天，有一個真t，也是我們現在說的n，在秋天。

the N is silent. But in autumnal, we say both the  M and the n. Isn't it funny? Autumn. Autumnal.

N是無聲的。但在秋天，我們既說M又說N，是不是很有趣？秋天秋天

Now let's get down to foods. Turkey is the  main dish. There are all sorts of ways it  

現在我們來談談食物。火雞是主菜。有各種各樣的方式，它

can be prepared. Deep fried, grilled  whole, smoked, or roasted in the oven.  

可以準備。油炸、整塊烤、煙燻、或在烤箱裡烤。

That's probably the most common. Several years  ago I livestreamed some of my thanksgiving dinner,

The next dish you're going to have at almost any  thanksgiving meal is going to be mashed potatoes.

下一道菜你幾乎在任何感恩節大餐中都會吃到土豆泥。

We have mashed potatoes. Were these  made from scratch, from real potatoes? 

我們有土豆泥。這些都是用真正的洋芋做的嗎？

I think so. That's amazing. 

我想也是這是驚人的。

I love mashed potatoes. I just did a video  on ED endings and this is one of the cases  

我愛吃土豆泥。我剛剛做了一個關於ED結局的視頻，這是其中的一個案例。

where we would usually drop the ED ending in  pronunciation. Here, it's a T and we usually

don't say T between two other consonants. So it's  not mashed potatoes. Mashed potatoes. But we say:

mashed potatoes, dropping the T sound altogether.  If you want to know why and you want to know more
