Well, hello and welcome to this English lesson about how to describe scary and spooky places.

大家好，歡迎來到本節英語課，學習以下內容如何描述 恐怖和陰森的地方。 

是以，這是一堂特殊的英語課。

頻率副詞

I thought, because Halloween is just around the corner, I should do a lesson on how to describe places that aren't the kind of places where people normally go.

我想，因為萬聖節就快到了在角落裡，我應該上一堂如何描述地點的課 這些地方不是人們通常會去的地方。 

So I think we should get started right here. What do you think?

是以，我認為我們應該從這裡開始。你怎麼看？ 

So let's get started right here at this old abandoned house.

讓我們從這裡開始在這座廢棄的老房子裡。 

Now, if I was to describe this house to you, I would probably describe it as a little bit scary.

現在，讓我來向你描述一下這棟房子、我可能會用 "有點嚇人 "來形容它。 

If you look inside, you can see that no one lives here.

如果你往裡面看，就會發現這裡沒有人居住。

And I do find this a little bit scary because even though no one lives here, you don't know what to expect.

我確實覺得這有點可怕因為即使沒有人住在這裡 你不知道會發生什麼。 

So I would definitely say this house is neglected.

是以，我可以肯定地說，這所房子被忽視了。

That's another word we would use to describe a house like this.

我們會用另一個詞來形容這樣的房子。

I'm going to speak a little more quickly now and get out of here as soon as I can.

我現在要快一點說，然後儘快離開這裡。

You might also wonder if a house like this is haunted. When a house is haunted, it means that you think ghosts maybe live there.

您可以也不知道這樣的房子會不會鬧鬼 當一所房子鬧鬼時，意味著你認為那裡可能住著鬼魂。 

I certainly wouldn't come back to this house at night.

我當然不會在晚上回到這所房子。

I don't actually believe in ghosts, but certainly if I came to this house at night, I would find it scary and I would probably start to wonder if it was haunted if I started to hear strange and weird noises.

我其實不相信有鬼，但如果我來到這所房子裡在晚上，我會覺得很可怕，我可能會開始想 如果我開始聽到奇怪和詭異的聲音，就說明這裡鬧鬼了。 

Do you have a place in your town where you wouldn't go at night?

您的城市裡有您晚上不願意去的地方嗎？

I'm at one right now, and of course, it's daytime.

我現在就在那裡，當然，現在是白天。

And if you think you don't have a place like this in your town, you should go look around, because you probably do.

如果你認為你的城市裡沒有這樣的地方，那你就錯了、你應該去四處看看，因為你很可能就是這樣做的。 

I would describe this place as sketchy at night.

我會用 "簡陋 "來形容這個地方晚上 

During the day, it's a very nice place to be.

白天，這裡是一個非常舒適的地方。

You can hear the water running beside me in the creek, but at night it's a little bit sketchy.

你可以聽到溪水在我身邊流淌、但到了晚上就有點不安全了。 

When we describe a place as sketchy in English, we mean that it's a little bit dangerous.

當我們用英語描述一個地方很簡陋時、我們的意思是，這有點危險。 

We're usually talking about people who make the place a little bit sketchy.

我們通常說的是那些讓這個地方變得有點簡陋的人。

I'm going to guess that the people who hang out here like to put graffiti on the walls.

And they probably do other things that I'm guessing are illegal.

他們可能還做了其他我猜是違法的事情。

But definitely this is a sketchy place at night.

但晚上這裡肯定是個不安全的地方。

I'm out here in the woods, and it's a little bit creepy.

Actually, it's not too creepy right now because it's daytime.

其實，現在還不算太恐怖，因為是白天。

But if I was out here at night, this would be a creepy place to be.

但如果我晚上在這裡，這裡會讓人毛骨悚然。

In the woods at night, there are funny sounds.

Sometimes you might hear a wolf howling or you might hear other animals scurrying in the night.

有時你可能會聽到狼嚎，或者你可能會聽到其他動物在夜裡竄來竄去。 

And even worse, sometimes you might hear a sound and you don't recognize it.

更糟糕的是，有時你可能會聽到一個聲音，但卻認不出來。

So this could be a creepy place to be if it was the middle of the night.

所以，如果是在半夜，這裡可能會讓人毛骨悚然。

By the way, creepy means a little bit scary.

順便說一句，"毛骨悚然 "的意思是有點嚇人。

Not a place that you want to be by yourself.

I certainly wouldn't want to be out here by myself in the middle of the night.

So this next place that I'm going to show you is the basement at my school.

接下來我要帶你們去的地方是我學校的地下室。

I feel like we should probably turn the light on before we go down these stairs.

我覺得我們下樓梯之前應該先開燈。

I would describe this place as being eerie.

我會用陰森恐怖來形容這個地方。

When a place is eerie, it's a little bit scary.

當一個地方陰森恐怖時，就會讓人覺得有點害怕。

It's eerie because there's weird sounds down here.

這裡陰森恐怖，因為下面有奇怪的聲音。

These pipes sometimes make strange sounds and there's a hum over there, and I don't know what it's from.

這些管道有時會發出奇怪的聲音那邊有嗡嗡聲，我不知道是什麼聲音。 

So this is a place that I would definitely say is eerie.

所以說，這裡絕對是一個陰森恐怖的地方。

People don't come down here very often, and I can see why.

人們不常來這裡，我知道為什麼。

There's a little bit of moisture down here.

When a place is musty it smells a little bit like maybe there's mold or something.

當一個地方有黴味時，它就會有一點味道好像是發黴了什麼的。 

So, again, this is the basement at my school, a place where people usually don't come and a place that's just a little bit eerie and a little bit scary.

再說一遍，這是我學校的地下室、人跡罕至 和一個有點陰森、有點恐怖的地方。 

So as humans, we like places that are well-lit.

是以，作為人類，我們喜歡光線充足的地方。

This is a parking garage that's not actually used very much, and it's a little bit spooky.

這是一個實際使用率並不高的停車場、而且有點詭異。 

I would call this place spooky because as you walk through it, the lights turn on when they sense that you're here, but sometimes they don't turn on.

我稱這裡為 "幽靈之地"，因為當你走過這裡時，燈光當它們感覺到你在這裡時就會開啟，但有時它們不會開啟。 

You can hear... there, one just turned on. It actually scared me a little bit.

你可以聽到......那裡，有一個剛剛打開。事實上，這讓我有點害怕。 

它之所以令人毛骨悚然，還因為它是如此空曠。

I don't know why they built this parking garage.

我不知道他們為什麼要建這個停車場。

There's a few cars here, but as I walk along, it's just more and more interesting to try and figure out why this place doesn't have...

這裡有幾輛車，但我走著走著、越來越有趣 試圖找出為什麼這個地方沒有... 

I'm actually getting a little bit scared being down here.

實際上，我在下面都有點害怕了。

I should probably wrap up this part of the lesson.

I'll start walking towards the exit again or the entrance / exit.

我開始走再次走向出口 或出入口。 

Pretty soon the lights are going to start turning off.

If I... Oh! See, that one just turned off there.

如果我...哦，你看那個剛關了。

I think these are going to start turning off to over here.

我認為這些是要開始關閉到這裡。 

And if we wait long enough, I think the other one will..

如果我們等得夠久，我想另一個也會。

You can say either phrase to describe that.

Luckily, I have this super long selfie stick to show you what it looks like if you look over the edge of where I am right now.

幸運的是，我有一根超長的自拍杆讓你看看它的樣子 如果你從我現在所處的位置看過去。 

I am standing about two meters back from the edge because I am incredibly scared of heights.

我站在離邊緣大約兩米遠的地方因為我非常恐高。 

I'm actually really happy that I'm done recording that segment now.

事實上，我真的很高興我現在已經錄完了這一段。

順便說一句，其實也不算太糟。

But yeah, a scary place for me would be standing right at the edge of that cliff.

不過，對我來說，站在懸崖邊上才是最可怕的。

So this bridge in front of me is quite run down.

我甚至不確定過馬路是否安全。

I'm going to be careful as I go across this bridge.

You can see that there are big holes in the bridge.
