另外，我還會教你如何自己寫一首基本的詩。

I love teaching poetry.

我喜歡教詩歌。

And learning about poetry will help you improve your English speaking and writing abilities.

而學習詩歌將有助於提高你的英語口語和寫作能力。

So be sure to stay until the end of the video because I will give you a quiz and some homework.

所以一定要留到視頻結束，因為我將給你一個小測驗和一些家庭作業。

Let's get started.

讓我們開始吧。

So what is a poem?

那麼什麼是詩呢？

It's an arrangement of words written or spoken.

它是一種書面或口頭的文字安排。

They usually rhyme.

它們通常是押韻的。

They are a great way to express your experiences, ideas, or emotions, in an artful way.

它們是以藝術的方式表達你的經驗、想法或情感的好方法。

So, why do we write poetry?

那麼，我們為什麼要寫詩？

Because poetry is beautiful and I want to share that beauty with you.

因為詩歌是美麗的，我想與你分享這種美麗。

Here is my poem. I wrote it.

這是我的詩。我寫的。

So let's look at my poem and I'll read it now.

所以讓我們看看我的詩，我現在就讀。

“In the morning, when I'm alone, I like to watch the sun rise up.

"在早晨，當我獨自一人時，我喜歡看太陽昇起。

I play soft music on my phone, I drink fresh coffee from my cup.

我在手機上播放柔和的音樂，我喝著杯中的新鮮咖啡。

The sun is shining fresh and bright, The sky outside is clear and blue,

陽光清新明媚，外面的天空清澈湛藍。

My mind is calm, My heart is light,

我的心是平靜的，我的心是光明的。

Today will be a good day, too.”

今天也將是一個好日子。"

So this is a short poem.

所以這是一首短詩。

And I want to teach you about rhyme.

而且我想教你押韻。

'rhyme' in poetry.

詩歌中的'韻'。

So let's look at the last words of each line.

是以，讓我們看看每一行的最後幾個字。

“alone” “alone”

"獨自""獨自"

Does it rhyme with the word "up"?

它與 "向上 "一詞押韻嗎？

“alone” “up” No.

"單獨""起來 "沒有。

Rhyming words have a similar sound.

押韻的詞有類似的聲音。

So “alone” and “up” don't rhyme

是以，"孤獨 "和 "向上 "並不押韻

but “alone” and “phone” do rhyme.

但 "孤獨 "和 "電話 "確實是押韻的。

“alone” and “phone” have a similar sound.

"單獨 "和 "電話 "有類似的聲音。

And “up” and “cup” have a similar sound.

而 "up "和 "cup "的發音相似。

So this is the rhyme scheme, or the rhyme pattern of this poem.

是以，這就是這首詩的韻律，或者說這首詩的韻律模式。

This poem has different rhyming words, so we're going to call

這首詩有不同的押韻詞，所以我們要把它稱為

“alone” rhyme A

"獨 "字韻A

and “up” is rhyme B.

和 "起 "是B韻。

And “phone” is A.

而 "電話 "是A。

And...

而且...

“cup” is B.

"杯 "是B。

“alone” “up” “phone” “cup”

"獨自""起來""電話""杯子"

This is our rhyme pattern or our rhyme scheme.

這就是我們的韻律模式或我們的韻律方案。

And in the next part, it's very similar.

而在接下來的部分，也非常類似。

“bright” and “blue” don't rhyme

"亮 "和 "藍 "不押韻

but “bright” rhymes with “light”

但 "明 "與 "光 "押韻

and “blue” rhymes with “too”

和 "藍色 "押韻的 "太"

so...

所以...

these are new words we'll label them

這些是新詞，我們會給它們貼上標籤

C, “bright”

C，"明亮"

and “blue” is D,

和 "藍色 "是D。

“light” is C

"光 "是C

and “too” is D.

而 "也 "是D。

So these are our rhyming patterns for this poem.

所以這些是我們這首詩的押韻模式。

Not all poems have to rhyme.

不是所有的詩都必須押韻。

But it's very nice when they do.

但是當他們這樣做的時候，就非常好了。

It's something good to try.

這是值得一試的事情。

It's traditional.

它是傳統的。

So this is our rhyme and our rhyming pattern.

所以這就是我們的韻律和我們的押韻模式。

And also, in poems we need a stanza.

還有，在詩中我們需要一個句子。

This poem has two stanzas, or two parts.

這首詩有兩節，或兩個部分。

So a stanza is a part of a poem.

是以，一節是一首詩的一部分。

This is part one. This is part two.

這是第一部分。這是第二部分。

Some poems have many many stanzas but this poem has only two.

有些詩有很多很多的句子，但這首詩只有兩句。

A stanza can be two lines long.

一節可以是兩行。

But my stanzas are four lines.

但我的詩句是四行。

And you can write as many as you want.

而且你想寫多少都可以。

But a simple poem will be one or two stanzas.

但一首簡單的詩會有一或兩節。

Also, in my poem, there are many images, there are many pictures of things.

另外，在我的詩中，有許多影像，有許多事物的圖片。

When you write a poem you want to add some images.

當你寫詩的時候，你想添加一些影像。

It says, “I like to watch the sun rise up,”

它說，"我喜歡看太陽昇起"。

“The sun” is an image.

"太陽 "是一個影像。

“I play soft music on my phone, ” “The phone” is an image.

"我在手機上播放輕音樂，" "手機 "是一個影像。

“I drink fresh coffee from my cup, ” “cup” is an image.

"我用我的杯子喝新鮮的咖啡，" "杯子 "是一個影像。

So when you write a poem, maybe you can put in some pictures of things.

所以當你寫詩的時候，也許你可以把一些事物的圖片放進去。

Also when you finish adding your images,

另外，當你完成添加你的影像時。

if you want to add some repeating words to your poem.

如果你想在你的詩中添加一些重複的詞。

Do you see any repeating words in my poem?

你在我的詩中看到任何重複的詞嗎？

I think the word 'I' repeats.

我認為 "我 "這個詞是重複的。

“I like to watch” “I play music”

"我喜歡看""我玩音樂"

“I drink fresh coffee” “I... I... I...”

"我喝新鮮咖啡" "我......我......I..."

And in other places, too.

而且在其他地方也是如此。

“My mind is calm” “My heart is light”

"我的心是平靜的""我的心是光明的"

So repeating words are also beautiful in a poem.

是以，在一首詩中，重複的詞語也是很美的。

You don't have to repeat words,

你不需要重複單詞。

but they make the poem more lovely.

但它們使這首詩更加可愛。

So that is our images and our repeating words.

所以這就是我們的影像和我們重複的話語。

So are… uh… so our images were

所以是......呃......所以我們的影像是

“sun”

"太陽"

and “phone”

和 "電話"

and “cup”.

和 "杯"。

And there's one more thing a poem needs that this poem does not have.

還有一件事是一首詩需要的，而這首詩卻沒有。

A poem needs a title.

一首詩需要一個標題。

So, everyone… what do you think?

那麼，各位......你們認為如何？

My poem has no title.

Let's learn how to write your own poem.

讓我們來學習如何寫你自己的詩。

So we have looked at my poem, and now, I want to teach you how to write your own poem.

所以我們已經看了我的詩，現在，我想教你如何寫你自己的詩。

So when we write a poem, we want to start with the main idea.

And the main idea can also be our title.

而主旨也可以是我們的標題。

So I want to choose an easy main idea for this poem.

所以我想為這首詩選擇一個簡單的主旨。

Let's go with “Summer”.

讓我們選擇 "夏天"。

“Summer” is a great title,

"夏天 "是一個偉大的標題。

so I will write the word 'Summer' here.

所以我將在這裡寫下 "夏天 "這個詞。

So if our title is “Summer,” let's think about some images that go with summer.

是以，如果我們的標題是 "夏天"，讓我們思考一些與夏天有關的影像。

I think we all think about the sun in summer.

我想我們都想到了夏天的太陽。

So what rhymes with “sun,” everybody? “sun” rhymes with “ton”.

那麼，各位，什麼與 "太陽 "押韻？"太陽 "與 "噸 "押韻。

Rhymes with “one”. Rhymes with “run”.

與 "一 "押韻。與 "跑 "押韻。

But I think I want to choose “fun”.

但我想我要選擇 "有趣"。

“sun” and “fun” can be my rhymes.

"太陽 "和 "樂趣 "可以成為我的韻腳。

But also, when it's hot outside, what do you want?

但同時，當外面很熱時，你想要什麼？

I usually want to drink something cold. I want to drink soda or an icy drink.

我通常想喝一些冷飲。我想喝蘇打水或冰涼的飲料。

So my first line, I think will be about drinking something cold.

所以我的第一句話，我想將是關於喝冷飲的。

There we go.

我們走吧。

“Cool soda can,”

"很酷的蘇打水罐"。

'Cool soda can,' is my first line.

'很酷的蘇打水罐，'是我的第一句話。

And second line, I want to end on that word “sun”.

而第二行，我想在 "太陽 "這個詞上結束。

“Cool soda can, hot summer sun,”

"涼爽的蘇打水罐，炎熱的夏日陽光"。

So we have the cool drink and the hot weather.

是以，我們有清涼的飲料和炎熱的天氣。

But our next rhyming word “can” - and what rhymes with “can”?

但我們的下一個押韻詞 "能"--什麼與 "能 "押韻？

“tan” and “ran” and “man”

"晒 "和 "跑 "和 "人"

So let's try the word “plan”.

所以讓我們試試 "計劃 "這個詞。

“Hot summer sun,...

"炎熱的夏季陽光，...

no special plan,”

沒有特別的計劃"。

“Cool soda can, hot summer sun, no special plan,”

"涼爽的汽水罐，炎熱的夏日陽光，沒有特別的計劃"。

But…

但是...

but we're having fun.

但我們很開心。

So do you remember the rhyme scheme?

那麼你還記得押韻的方法嗎？

“can” and “plan” rhyme

"可以 "和 "計劃 "押韻

and “sun” and “fun” rhyme,

而 "太陽 "和 "樂趣 "是押韻的。

so we can mark our rhyme scheme A B A B

所以我們可以標記我們的韻律計劃 A B A B

“can,” “plan,”

"可以"、"計劃"

and “sun,” “fun.”

和 "陽光"、"樂趣"。

And you might notice that at the end of some of my lines, I have commas.

你可能會注意到，在我的一些句子的末尾，我有逗號。

And at the end of the last line, I have a period.

而在最後一行的末尾，我有一個句號。

This is because when you write a poem, it's okay to be unstructured.

這是因為當你寫詩的時候，沒有結構是可以的。

It's okay to change the rules.

改變規則是可以的。

So in my poem, I begin with capital letters and I end with commas and a period,

所以在我的詩中，我以大寫字母開始，以逗號和句號結束。

but you don't have to.

但你不一定要這樣做。

You can break the rules of grammar and the rules of punctuation when you write a poem.

當你寫詩時，你可以打破文法規則和標點符號的規則。

So this is a how many stanzas poem?
