You've been looking at the various news stories about this on the internet

你看了網上各種關於這個的新聞報道了嗎？

and you've picked out three words that are useful to talk about it. 

而你挑選了三個有用的詞來談論它。

What have we got?

我們有什麼？

Yes, we have: 'negligence', 'breaks down' and 'raids'.

是的，我們有。"疏忽"，"崩潰 "和 "突襲"。

'Negligence', 'breaks down' and 'raids'. Let's start then with your first headline.

"疏忽"、"故障 "和 "突襲"。那就從你的第一個標題開始吧。

Yes, we're starting in Australia today with SBS News – the headline:

是的，我們今天從澳洲的SBS新聞開始--頭條。

'Negligence' – failure to take enough care.

'疏忽'--沒有足夠的謹慎。

Yes. It's a noun. It's spelt N-E-G-L-I-G-E-N-C-E and the pronunciation is 'negligence'.

是的，這是一個名詞。拼寫為N -E -G -L-I-G-E-N-C-E 發音為 "疏忽"。

OK. Interesting pronunciation:

好的有趣的發音。

we've got two 'g's in a short space, but they're pronounced differently.

我們已經有了兩個'g'在一個短的空間， 但他們的發音不同。

They are indeed the first 'g' is pronounced 'guh'

他們確實是第一個 "g "讀作 "guh

and the second 'g', which is followed by an 'e', is pronounced 'juh'.

而第二個'g'，後面是一個'e'，讀作'juh'。

So, we have: 'neg-li-gence' – 'negligence'.

所以，我們有："neg -li -gence" - "疏忽"。

Right. Now, when we talk about 'negligence' it's fairly serious, isn't it?

是的，當我們談論 "疏忽 "時現在，當我們談論 "疏忽 "時，這是相當嚴重的，不是嗎？

We're not talking about forgetting to bring your laptop to work, or something like that.

我們不是在說忘記帶筆記本去上班，或者類似的事情。

No, that's just being forgetful; 'negligence' is where you don't do something

不，那只是健忘，"疏忽 "是指你沒有做某件事情。

that you really should do or you're required to do by law and if you don't do it,

你真的應該做或法律要求你做的事情，如果你不做，。

something bad – very bad – may result.

可能會導致不好的事情--非常不好的事情。

Yeah. So, we often see this word in combination with the area that concerns it,

是的，所以，我們經常會看到這個詞和它所涉及的領域結合在一起。所以，我們經常會看到這個詞和它所關注的領域結合在一起。

for example, 'medical negligence'.

例如，'醫療過失'。

Yes, or we can have 'corporate negligence', for example.

是的，或者我們可以有'公司疏忽'，例如。

And it's often used in the context of accusations or even criminal or civil lawsuits.

而它經常被用於指控甚至刑事或民事訴訟的場合。

So, it's very much used in legal terms as well.

所以，它在法律上的應用也非常多。

Yeah. So, 'negligence' is when someone or somebody 'neglects' its duty.

是啊，所以，"疏忽 "是指某人或某人 "疏忽 "其職責。所以，"疏忽 "是指某人或某人 "忽視 "其職責。

You used the verb form there, Neil – I heard that.

你用的是動詞形式，尼爾--我聽到了。

Yes, 'neglect' is the verb form and 'neglect' is also a noun as well.

是的，'忽視'是動詞形式，'忽視'也是名詞。

So, if you 'neglect' a child or a child experiences 'neglect',

所以，如果你 "忽視 "了一個孩子，或者孩子經歷了 "忽視"。

it means you're not looking after its basic needs properly

說明你沒有照顧好它的基本需求

and often, again, the authorities will step in. There might be police or social workers involved.

而且，當局往往會再次介入。可能有警察或社會工作者參與。

Yes. And there's also an adjective?

是的，還有一個形容詞？還有一個形容詞？

'Neglected'. Yes, if a child is 'neglected'

"被忽視"。是的，如果一個孩子被 "忽視 "了。

or in this case if Diego Maradona's healthcare was 'neglected', there will be serious consequences.

或者在這種情況下，如果迭戈-馬拉多納的醫療服務被'忽視'，將會產生嚴重的後果。

Right. Now, it's time for your next headline.

好了，現在是你下一個標題的時候了現在，是你下一個標題的時候了。

It is and we are now in the UK, looking at The Star – the headline:

是的，我們現在在英國，看著星報--頭條。

'Breaks down' – starts crying.

'崩潰'--開始哭泣。

Now, in this headline there's a clue because it says 'breaks down in tears',

現在，在這個標題中，有一個線索，因為它說 "淚流滿面"。

but we don't need the 'in tears' and it still means crying, doesn't it?

但我們不需要'淚流滿面'，它仍然是哭的意思，不是嗎？

Absolutely, yes. Now, 'breaks down'... B-R-E-A-K-S. Second word: D-O-W-N.

當然，是的。現在，"分解"...B -R -E第二個詞。D -O -W

If you 'break down', it means you really start to cry,

如果你 "崩潰 "了，說明你真的開始哭了。

kind of very emotionally, very suddenly and you can't really control yourself.

那種很情緒化，很突然，你真的無法控制自己。

Now, this is not the kind of crying that you get at the end of a film, Neil,

這可不是電影結束時的那種哭聲，尼爾。

when you're watching a sort of sad film and you get – a little tear comes to your eye.

Do you ever get that?

你曾經得到過嗎？

When I'm watching one of those Disney Pixar films with my kids

當我和孩子們一起看迪斯尼皮克斯電影的時候

and it's got the bit that appeals to the grown-ups and the tear appears...

它有吸引成年人的地方，淚水出現了... ...

No, no this is not 'breaking down' – that's just a little...

不，不，這不是 "崩潰"--這只是一點......。

No, that's not breaking down – when your kids go, 'Daddy, why are you crying?'

不，這不是崩潰--當你的孩子們說："爸爸，你為什麼哭？

and there's a little tear down your eye. No 'break' – if you 'break down',

而你的眼裡卻流下了一點淚水。沒有 "斷"--如果你 "斷 "了。

you really lose control of your... of your emotions:  

你真的失去了控制你的... 你的情緒。

you cry very loudly, you cry very suddenly.

你哭得很大聲，你哭得很突然。

You really, kind of, can't control yourself and it's not a nice experience.

你真的，有點，控制不住自己，這不是一種好的體驗。

It's a human experience, but it's not like you enjoy a sad film crying;

這是人的經驗，但你又不是欣賞一部悲傷的電影哭。

this is proper kind of losing control: crying, sobbing, almost getting hysterical. Yeah.

這是適當的一種失控：哭泣，抽泣，幾乎得到歇斯底里。對啊

Yeah. It can be for happy reasons though as well.

是啊，雖然也有可能是出於開心的原因。

Oh yes, you know, if something really good happens that you've been waiting for a long time.

哦，是的，你知道，如果有什麼真正的好事情發生，你已經等待了很長時間。

You've been... you had an exam result that's really important to you.

你... 你的考試成績對你很重要。

You get the grade you wanted – you might 'break down' in tears of happiness or tears of relief.

你得到了你想要的成績--你可能會在幸福的淚水或欣慰的淚水中 "崩潰"。

So, it's not always 'breaking down' because of bad things, but often it is:

所以，不一定都是因為不好的事情而'崩潰'，但往往都是這樣。

we get a shock, we get bad news, there's a crime being committed, somebody dies,

you have a really bad breakup and you lose all control of your emotions

你有一個非常糟糕的分手，你失去了所有的控制你的情緒。

and you cry loudly and noisily, and people can't calm you down.

你大聲地哭，大聲地鬧，人們也無法讓你平靜下來。

That's what we mean by 'to break down'.

這就是我們所說的'拆'的意思。

Yeah. So, that's a verb and we've got two words there: 'break' and 'down'.

是啊，所以，這是一個動詞，我們有兩個詞：所以，這是一個動詞，我們已經得到了兩個詞。"斷 "和 "倒"。

There is a noun, a 'breakdown', which is one word but that's slightly different, isn't it?

有一個名詞，就是'崩潰'，雖然是一個字，但那是略有不同，是不是？

We're talking about a full sort of emotional collapse.

我們說的是一種完整的情感崩潰。

Yes. Yeah, if you have a 'breakdown', you may well cry uncontrollably,

是的，是的，如果你 "崩潰 "了，你可能會不由自主地哭泣。

but often it's more to do with a sort of a mental health issue.

但往往它更多的是做 一種心理健康問題。

So, if you have a 'breakdown' – a psychological 'breakdown' – as well as crying,

所以，如果你有 "崩潰"--心理 "崩潰"--以及哭泣。

you've got other associated difficulties and you probably need some professional help

你有其他相關的困難，你可能需要一些專業的幫助。

or some certainly some time and treatment to help you to recover from that.

或一些肯定的一些時間和治療，以幫助你恢復從。

Now, like many phrasal verbs, 'break down' has various meanings,

現在，和許多短語動詞一樣，'分解'也有各種含義。

which may not seem connected, but we think there is a connection between them.

看似沒有什麼聯繫，但我們認為它們之間是有聯繫的。

So, for example over the weekend my car 'broke down'.

所以，比如週末我的車 "壞了"。

Now, it doesn't mean it started crying, does it?

現在，這並不意味著它開始哭泣，不是嗎？

No. But it does mean it wasn't working like it normally would,

不，但這確實意味著它不像正常情況下那樣工作。

and if we think of... although 'breaking down' in tears

如果我們想到... 雖然 "崩潰 "地哭了起來。
