And in this video we're going to talk

在這個視頻中，我們將談論

about how to use the word 'borrow' or 'lend me'.

關於如何使用'借用'或'借給我'這個詞。

Well, when do we use this word?

那麼，我們什麼時候使用這個詞呢？

Well, let me give you an example.

好吧，讓我給你舉個例子。

Let's say that you're taking a test

比方說，你正在參加一個考試

and you look in your bag

而你在你的包裡尋找

and uh-oh you forgot your pencil.

和嗯，你忘了你的鉛筆。

So what do you do?

那麼你是怎麼做的？

You have to ask someone next to you, or maybe a friend

你必須問你旁邊的人，或者是一個朋友

to let them use your pencil.

讓他們使用你的鉛筆。

And a mistake that a lot of people make is they say,

而很多人犯的一個錯誤是他們說。

“Can you borrow me your pencil?”

"你能把你的鉛筆借給我嗎？"

But that's actually wrong.

但這實際上是錯誤的。

Don't say that.

別這麼說。

Don't say,

不要說。

“Can you borrow me your pencil?”

"你能把你的鉛筆借給我嗎？"

The actual way to say it

實際的說法是

goes like this.

是這樣的。

Let's look at an example sentence.

我們來看看一個例句。

“Can I borrow your pencil?”

"我能借你的鉛筆嗎？"

That's the correct way to say it.

這就是正確的說法。

“Can I borrow your pencil?

"我能借你的鉛筆嗎？

Okay.

好的。

Another way that you can say is,

另一種方式是，你可以說。

“Can you lend me your pencil?”

"你能把你的鉛筆借給我嗎？"

Let's look at it again.

讓我們再看一下。

“Can you lend me your pencil?”

"你能把你的鉛筆借給我嗎？"

Now, both of these ways are okay.

現在，這兩種方式都可以。

And they're both correct and right,

而他們都是正確的，也是對的。

but I think this one is a better way to say it.

但我認為這個是更好的表達方式。

Again, let's remember it's not,

再次，讓我們記住它不是。

'Can you borrow me', okay, don't say that.

'你能借我嗎'，好吧，別這麼說。

Say this,

說這個。

“Can I borrow your pencil?”

"我能借你的鉛筆嗎？"

Let's look at a couple more examples sentences.

讓我們再看幾個例子句子。

Let's look at some more examples.

Alright, now, in the beginning of the video, I taught you

好了，現在，在視頻的開頭，我教你

to say, “Can I borrow… something”

說，"我可以借......東西嗎"

“Can I borrow your pencil?”

"我能借你的鉛筆嗎？"

But, actually,

但是，實際上。

there's a more polite way to say this.

有一個更禮貌的方式來表達。

And that is by saying,

而這是通過說。

“May I borrow something from you?”

"我可以向你借點東西嗎？"

You should use 'May I' when you're talking to someone you don't know very well.

當你與你不太瞭解的人交談時，你應該使用'May I'。

Maybe it's a complete stranger,

也許是一個完全陌生的人。

or maybe you know that person,

或者說你認識那個人。

but you guys aren't really close friends.

但你們並不是真正的親密朋友。

It's better to use 'May I'.

最好使用 "May I"。

So again, “May I borrow something?”

所以又說："我可以借東西嗎？"

For example,

比如說。

“May I borrow your pen?”

"我可以借你的筆嗎？"

Or “May I borrow your phone?”

或者 "我可以借用你的電話嗎？"

Or maybe like I said in the example in the beginning,

或者像我在開頭的例子中所說的那樣。

“May I borrow your pencil or eraser?”

"我可以借你的鉛筆或橡皮嗎？"

Okay. Well that's it for today.

好的。今天就到此為止。

I hope you guys learned something and I'll see you guys next time.

我希望你們能學到一些東西，下次再見吧。

Bye.

再見。
