This is a hilarious scene from the movie.

這是電影中一個搞笑的場景。

The pink panther.

粉紅色的豹子

Not really to be taken seriously, but what can we learn about accent coaching by watching this?

其實並不是要認真對待，但通過看這個，我們能學到什麼口音教練的知識？

I would like to buy a hamburger, I would like to buy, I would like to buy a hamburger.

我想買一個漢堡包，我想買，我想買一個漢堡包。

Okay, right away, I have a little bit of beef and that is she said it once he repeated it, not very accurately and then she exaggerated.

好吧，馬上，我有一點不滿，那就是她說了一次他就重複了一次，不是很準確，然後她就誇大了。

I would like to buy a hamburger so that's not actually natural english.

我想買一個漢堡包，所以這其實不是自然英語。

I can't stand it when people are coaching students in a way that's not natural.

我不能忍受人們以一種不自然的方式來指導學生。

No one wants to learn unnatural english.

沒有人願意學習不自然的英語。

They want to learn natural conversational english, let's keep going, let's go over to phrases I used here, I said I had beef.

他們想學習自然的英語會話，讓我們繼續，讓我們去看看我在這裡使用的短語，我說我有牛肉。

What the heck does it mean to have beef beef is the meat that comes from a cow, but we also use it idiomatic lee to say I have a complaint or a problem with someone or the way someone is doing something like here.

牛肉是來自牛的肉，但我們也用它來表示我對某人或某人做某事的方式有抱怨或問題，如這裡。

The way the accent coaches working, I basically said this again in another way when I said I can't stand it, it bothers me, I have a problem with it.

口音教練的工作方式，我基本上以另一種方式又說了一遍，我說我不能忍受，它困擾著我，我對它有意見。

I think something is wrong with it.

我認為它出了問題。

I have beef with it.

我對它有意見。

You would like to buy em baga, No, no, no, let's break it down.

你想買em baga，不，不，不，讓我們把它分解。

I I okay, now I do love breaking it down.

我我好了，現在我確實喜歡把它分解。

This is something I do with my students all the time.

這是我一直對我的學生做的事情。

Sometimes a full sentence is too much, there's too much going on.

有時一個完整的句子太多，有太多的事情要做。

Melody rhythm sounds, linking reductions.

旋律節奏的聲音，連接的減法。

I actually love breaking up longer sentences into smaller chunks.

實際上，我喜歡把長句子拆成小塊。

I I would would would okay, so she's breaking it down and she's just saying a single word, having him repeat it, but she's not giving him any feedback when he's not doing it well, and she's also not really doing it enough times for him to repeat it back In a better way.

我想是的，所以她把它分解了，她只是說一個詞，讓他重複，但是當他做得不好的時候，她沒有給他任何反饋，而且她也沒有真正做足夠的次數讓他以更好的方式重複它。

So I have an online school, Rachel's English Academy where we do accent training with our students and the transformation they make is incredible when my students use the plates, say it method in the academy, they may play it and say it 15 times in a row.

是以，我有一個在線學校，瑞秋英語學院，在那裡我們對學生進行口音訓練，當我的學生使用學院裡的盤子，說出來的方法時，他們的轉變是不可思議的，他們可能會連續播放並說15遍。

Now, here's what's incredible about that, when you play it and say it, play it and say it, their ear does something, the mind connection works and they end up tweaking their mouth position to make a sound that's usually completely accurate by the end of their repetitions.

現在，這裡有一個令人難以置信的地方，當你播放它，說它，播放它，說它，他們的耳朵就會做一些事情，心靈的聯繫就會起作用，他們最終會調整他們的嘴部位置，以發出一個通常在他們重複結束時完全準確的聲音。

And they do that by themselves without me telling them what to change your tweak, they figure it out as they go as their ear matches the sound.

他們自己做的，不需要我告訴他們該怎麼改，怎麼調，他們一邊做一邊想，因為他們的耳朵和聲音相匹配。

And I love watching this happen because it empowers the students, they realize with this method and this material, they can improve all on their own without having an accent coach, there would we are, would you know what I'm going to say again, Would that's not how anybody says that word.

我喜歡看這種情況發生，因為它賦予了學生權力，他們意識到用這種方法和這種材料，他們可以在沒有口音教練的情況下自己提高，我們會在那裡，你知道我要說什麼嗎？

So let's not teach our students.

所以我們不要教我們的學生。

That that's how we say a word.

這就是我們說一個詞的方式。

Now.

現在。

Another thing that's important that she's not doing that.

另一件重要的事情是，她沒有這樣做。

I always do with my students in the academy is also give information.

我在學院裡對我的學生總是做的也是提供資訊。

It's not just about listening and repeating with adult students.

對成年學生來說，這不僅僅是傾聽和重複。

Adult students need some information, some insight into the anatomy and how we produce certain sounds.

成人學生需要一些資訊，對解剖學和我們如何產生某些聲音有一些深入的瞭解。

So if you're studying with me in my academy, you get a video that goes over the concepts.

是以，如果你在我的學院裡和我一起學習，你會得到一個視頻，其中有關於這些概念的內容。

So you get it intellectually with your head.

所以你在智力上用你的頭腦得到它。

Then you move into the audio for the training session.

然後你進入培訓課程的音頻。

Mm hmm.

嗯，嗯。

Like like like like to do I to try two.

喜歡喜歡做我要嘗試兩個。

Do it.

做到這一點。

Bye bye bye.

再見，再見。

I love everything about this.

我喜歡這一切。

I love steve martin now.

我現在喜歡史蒂夫-馬丁。

Like we said, this is a comedy, This woman isn't actually trying to be an accent coach.

就像我們說的，這是一部喜劇，這個女人實際上並沒有想成為一個口音教練。

It's a spoof.

這是個惡搞。

What's a spoof?

什麼是惡搞？

It's an imitation of something generally in a way that exaggerates some of the characteristics.

這是一種模仿，一般是以誇大某些特徵的方式來模仿。

The other really important thing to talk about here is the character wants to sound completely american to blend in for his job.

這裡要談的另一件真正重要的事情是，這個角色希望聽起來完全是美國人，以融入他的工作。

He has a french accent.

他有法國口音。

And the one thing I want to make sure I say explicitly is that there's nothing wrong with having an accent sometimes as an accent coach.

而我想確保明確說的一件事是，作為口音教練，有時有口音並沒有錯。

I feel like I get pigeonholed as somebody who thinks we all need to sound the same, totally not true.

我覺得我被放了鴿子，認為我們都需要聽起來一樣，完全不是這樣。

I feel like I exist for my students to help them meet their goals, Whatever their goals are accents themselves are completely beautiful.

我覺得我是為我的學生而存在的，幫助他們實現他們的目標，無論他們的目標是什麼，口音本身是完全美麗的。

I used an interesting phrase here, pigeon hole, Have you heard this phrase before?

我在這裡用了一個有趣的短語，鴿子洞，你以前聽過這個短語嗎？

A pigeon is a common city bird.

鴿子是一種常見的城市鳥類。

A pigeon hole did originally mean a small space for a pigeon.

鴿子洞最初確實是指一個供鴿子使用的小空間。

Now it refers to a set of small compartments for sorting letters or papers as a verb.

現在它指的是一套用於分類信件或文件的小隔間，是一個動詞。

The way I used it, it means to assign a particular category or class to something, especially in a manner that's too narrow.

我使用它的方式，是指給某個東西指定一個特定的類別或等級，特別是以一種過於狹窄的方式。

Let's say you're an aspiring chef.

比方說，你是一個有抱負的廚師。

You've worked in three seafood restaurants.

你曾在三家海鮮餐廳工作過。

You're looking for a new job and you've decided the restaurant definitely won't be a seafood restaurant because you don't want to get pigeonholed.

你正在尋找一份新的工作，你已經決定這家餐廳肯定不會是一家海鮮餐廳，因為你不想被放鴿子。

You want to be known to excel at various cuisines, not just seafood or an actor wants to make sure he doesn't get pigeonholed for playing the same kind of part all the time.

你想被稱為擅長各種美食，而不僅僅是海鮮，或者一個演員想確保他不會因為一直扮演同一類角色而被放鴿子。

He wants to be hired for all different kinds of roles.

他希望被僱用擔任各種不同的角色。

I said as an accent coach don't pigeonhole me as someone who thinks everyone should lose their accent.

我說，作為一個口音教練，不要把我當成一個認為每個人都應該失去口音的人。

Some of my students have that goal and I want to help them reach that.

我的一些學生有這個目標，我想幫助他們達到這個目標。

But other students love their accent but want to have more ease with spoken communication and I think that's great.

但其他學生喜歡他們的口音，但希望在口語交流方面更加輕鬆，我認為這很好。

Bye bye bye baby.

再見了，寶貝。

A Hey hamburger hamburger hamburger hamburger.

一個嘿嘿的漢堡包漢堡包漢堡包漢堡包漢堡包。

Oh my gosh, I love so much how he says this word hamburger hamburger hamburger.

哦，我的天哪，我非常喜歡他說這個詞漢堡包漢堡包漢堡包。

Hey there.

嗨，你們好。

So one thing to note for my french students, The H in english is sometimes silent but usually not like in the word hamburger we have that little escape of air sound hamburger.

是以，有一件事要告訴我的法國學生，英語中的H有時是無聲的，但通常不是，比如在漢堡包這個詞中，我們有一點漏氣的聲音漢堡包。

Why is it pronounced in hamburger?

為什麼它的發音是漢堡包？

But silent an hour and honor.

但默默無聞的一小時和榮譽。

I don't know but usually it's pronounced hem go okay.

我不知道，但通常情況下，它的發音是好的。

Another thing I always try to make sure that my students become aware if they are bringing in a physical gesture.

另一件事是，我總是試圖確保我的學生意識到，如果他們帶著一個身體姿態。

So for example with the word hamburger ham he says mm.

是以，例如，對於漢堡包火腿這個詞，他說的是毫米。

Um And I would want to make sure my students recognize if they were doing that so that they could stop doing it.

我想確保我的學生認識到他們是否在這樣做，以便他們能夠停止這樣做。

Sometimes students will bring an extra movement here with the lips a lot.

有時，學生們會在這裡用嘴脣帶出一個額外的動作，很多時候。

That's just gonna be more work and it's going to be harder to relax with that.

這只是會有更多的工作，而且會更難放鬆。

So I always try to get my students to notice these extra movements and to take them out.

所以我總是試圖讓我的學生注意到這些額外的動作，並把它們拿出來。

It's just gonna lead to a more natural, comfortable english.

One other thing in spoken english so often we use contractions.

You can always find something that's going to get a little progress one way or another.

你總能找到一些東西，以這樣或那樣的方式獲得一點進展。

And if what you're trying to do isn't working, especially if it's starting to lead to you shouting or some extra attention, just drop it, forget it, leave it for a minute and then come back to it maybe with a slightly different approach or start working on something totally different, a different phrase.

如果你想做的事情不奏效，特別是如果它開始導致你大喊大叫或一些額外的關注，就放棄它，忘記它，離開它一分鐘，然後再回來，也許用一個稍微不同的方法，或開始在完全不同的東西上工作，一個不同的短語。

In conclusion, if you want to reduce your accent, there are methods, listen and repeat and as an adult being told the specifics of a certain topic, like a mouth position or the four reduction, studying them and then working repetitious lee with audio and if you can get feedback from a teacher great.

總之，如果你想減少你的口音，有一些方法，聽和重複，作為一個成年人被告知某個主題的具體內容，如口型或四個減少，研究它們，然後用音頻工作重複利，如果你能得到老師的反饋，那就太好了。

Obviously that helps to actually all of these things are available in my academy.

顯然，這有助於實際上所有這些東西都可以在我的學院裡得到。
