Today we're gonna talk about a mistake in English language that I still make,

今天我們要談的是我至今仍在犯的一個英語語言錯誤。 

轉承詞

that you make like every English language learner makes it a lot because it's an easy mistake to make.

就像每個英語學習者一樣，你經常犯這樣的錯誤，因為這是一個很容易犯的錯誤。

And this is when we use the word very too many times when we talk.

這就是我們在說話時使用 "非常 "一詞太多次的原因。

So if you're interested, how to get rid of this mistake, please continue watching this video.

所以，如果你對如何擺脫這種錯誤感興趣，請繼續觀看本視頻。

Very itself is a very weak word because it doesn't add any extra sense.

我們的思想 "非常 "這個詞本身就很無力，因為它並沒有增加任何額外的意義。

It just magnifies the adjective that you're using, but it doesn't add anything extra and it's just taking out your space.

它只是放大了你正在使用的形容詞，但並沒有增加任何額外的東西，只是佔用了你的空間。

And when you're writing an essay for your university, for example, you're normally limited to like 500 words.

例如，當你為大學撰寫論文時，通常只能寫 500 字左右。

And if you use very in every single sentence, then you're taking a lot of space out of your essay and it doesn't make your speech look too professional because again, you're using very simple vocabulary.

如果你在每一句話中都使用 "非常"，那麼你的文章就會佔據很大的篇幅，也不會讓你的演講看起來太專業，因為你使用的還是非常簡單的詞彙。

So this video is going to help you get rid of the word very.

是以，這段視頻將幫助你去掉 "非常 "一詞，在我們開始之前，先比較一下這兩個句子。

Before we start, just compare these two sentences.

I am wearing a lot of layers today because it's very cold outside.

我今天穿了很多件衣服，因為外面很冷。

I am wearing a lot of layers today because it's freezing outside.

我今天穿了很多件衣服，因為外面太冷了。

你看，兩個句子的凝固效果多麼不同。

By the way, when you want to describe what you're wearing on a cold day, Americans and British people would normally say, "I'm wearing a lot of layers,"

順便說一下，呃 當你想描述自己在寒冷天氣裡的穿著時，美國人和其他人通常會說我穿了很多層，意思是你穿了一件 T 恤，然後是一件毛衣，呃 然後可能是另一件毛衣，然後是一件大衣，然後是一條圍巾，我還穿了四層襯裙。

meaning that you're wearing a T-shirt, then a sweater, then maybe another sweater and then a coat and then a scarf.

So you're wearing a lot of layers and just, you notice that emotional color that my sentence gets when I'm using freezing instead of very cold.

所以，你穿了很多層衣服，你會注意到，當我用 "冰凍 "而不是 "非常冷 "時，我的句子就會變得情緒化。

And I'm gonna give you some examples for other phrases that you use.

我還會舉例說明你使用的其他短語。

The most used phrase in every single ESL students speech is a very good.

在每一個 ESL 學生的演講中，用得最多的短語就是 a very good，this is a very good class。

This is a very good class. This is a very good dress.

現在，我們該如何取而代之呢？

Instead of saying very good, you can say it's splendid.

你可以說它是輝煌的，輝煌的。

You can also say it's lit, the party was lit.

你也可以說 it's lit、the party was lit、lit，這是一個英語口語單詞。

And this is a spoken English word, so don't use it in essays.

But in America, it's very widely used, especially among young people.

但在美國，它的使用非常廣泛，尤其是在年輕人中間。

這是一項了不起的工作，俄羅斯布洛克的工作非常出色。

You see how many emotions I'm adding when I placed very with a stronger adjective.

你看，當我把 "非常 "換成更強烈的形容詞時，我增加了多少感情色彩。

Another example, here in America, especially in San Francisco, people love dogs and I think the city has more dogs than children.

另一個例子是，在美國，尤其是在舊金山，人們喜歡狗，我想這個城市的狗比兒童還多。

And whenever I walk outside I meet a cute dog and all of the dogs are really well-trained.

每當我走到外面，都會遇到一隻可愛的狗，而且所有的狗都訓練有素。

So, they would approach you and jump on you and lick you and I would always say, "Your dog is very cute."

所以，它們會靠近你，跳到你身上舔你，我總是說你的狗很可愛，就這樣做吧。

And I'm tired of this phrase myself because this is like a really limited vocabulary.

我自己也厭倦了這句話，因為這就像一個非常有限的詞彙。

And there are so many words that I can use instead.

For instance, this is also like for me guys right now because I really want to get rid of this very cute phrase.

比如說，我現在也很喜歡這句話，因為我真的很想擺脫這個非常可愛的短語。

我可以說你的狗很可愛、很可愛。

我也可以用欽佩、令人欽佩這個詞。

我還可以說，你的狗很可愛、很可愛。

Instead of saying very cute all the time.

The only situation when I allow myself to say very is when I'm training to sounds v and w.

我唯一允許自己說 "非常 "的情況是在訓練 V 和 w 的發音時，有時我說得太快，就會停止集中注意力發音。

Sometimes when I speak too fast, I just stop concentrating on the way I'm pronouncing sounds.

And it is really important for me because I still have this accent for my native language.

這對我來說非常重要，因為我的母語仍然帶有這種口音。

So after taking uh our intensive course in American pronunciation, I told myself, "Marina, you're gonna concentrate on these two sounds."

所以在上完我們的美式發音強化課程後，我告訴自己，瑪麗娜，你要把注意力集中在這兩個音上。

By the way, if you want to take the course, the link will be below and this is the best course in American accent I've ever taken and it's really helpful and you can see my progress, right.

順便說一下，如果你想參加合唱，鏈接就在下面，這是我參加過的最好的美式口音課程，真的很有幫助，你可以看到我的進步，對吧。

我正在訓練這兩種聲音，它們的音域很寬。

Try them like pause this video right now and try saying them really fast.

試試看，就像現在暫停這段視頻，試著用非常快、非常弱、非常白、非常溫暖的聲音說出來，訓練你的嘴巴發出正確的聲音，發出正確的聲音。

Very weak, very white, very warm and just train your mouth to do the right sounds to produce the right sounds.

We talk about different sounds and how to pronounce them, like where to put your tongue and how to open your mouth.

我們討論不同的發音以及如何發音，比如舌頭要放在哪裡，嘴巴要如何張開。

Something that I also use very often when I'm in Russia.

這也是我在俄羅斯時經常使用的東西。

As we've already mentioned, we can substitute with freezing.

正如我們已經提到的，我們可以用室外的冰天雪地來代替。

And we can also say, for example, Russia is as cold as ice.

我們還可以舉例說，俄羅斯冷若冰霜，意思是說，俄羅斯累的時候真的非常冷。

Meaning that Russia is really, really cold.

When you are tired, instead of saying very tired, you can say exhausted.

與其說非常累，不如說累死了、我累死了、累死了。

你可以說困了、困了，也可以說苦惱苦惱，對吧？

And if you want to say that something is very clean, you can say spotless.

如果你想說某樣東西非常乾淨，你可以說一塵不染、一塵不染。

You see how my speech is improving when I'm replacing the word very and how it adds more details.

你看，當我把 be 這個詞替換掉時，我的演講有了很大的進步，也增加了更多的細節。

You actually use less words, but you express more thoughts with just one word if you're stuck right now and if you're like, oh, but how do I say very beautiful?

如果你現在卡住了，如果你想，哦，但我該怎麼說呢？非常漂亮？ 

I forgot this word that Marina mentioned.

You can still use the word beautiful, but you can replace very with other words like extremely, extremely beautiful.

你仍然可以使用 "美麗 "這個詞，但可以用其他詞代替 "非常"，比如 "極其"、"極其美麗"。

他看上去極其美麗，極具競爭力，極具競爭力，極具競爭力，而且非常非常冷酷。
