Well, hello and welcome to this English lesson about plants.

大家好，歡迎來到這節關於植物的英語課。

Plants are these wonderful things that grow outside and sometimes we grow them inside.

植物是生長在室外的奇妙植物，有時我們也會在室內種植。

They make the world beautiful in my opinion.

在我看來，它們讓世界變得更加美麗。

They make us feel good inside and in in addition to that, they also feed us.

它們讓我們的內心感覺良好，除此之外，它們還能養活我們。

We eat all kinds of fruits and vegetables that plants provide for us.

我們吃植物為我們提供的各種水果和蔬菜。

So, plants are amazing and certainly a worthwhile English lesson for today.

是以，植物是神奇的，當然也是今天值得上的一堂英語課。

So, welcome to this English lesson about plants.

所以，歡迎來到這堂關於植物的英語課。

This is where you should start when talking about plants.

說到植物，就應該從這裡說起。

Seeds, in my opinion, are one of the most amazing things in the world.

在我看來，種子是世界上最神奇的東西之一。

It's this tiny little thing and you put it in the ground and it turns into a tree or it turns into grass or it turns into a little bush.

就是這麼一個小東西，你把它放進土裡，它就會變成一棵樹，或者變成小草，或者變成小灌木叢。

Seeds are these little dormant parts of the plant.

When I say dormant, I mean, a seed is kind of asleep, waiting to grow at some point.

我說的 "休眠"，是指種子在沉睡，等待著生長。

So, when you have seeds, you basically have plants that will grow someday.

是以，有了種子，基本上就有了將來會長大的植物。

Jen and I plant many, many seeds in the spring.

珍和我在春天播下了很多很多種子。

We start our seeds in little seeding trays in our basement and then eventually, they all grow into plants and seeds can be yummy too.

我們把種子放在地下室的小播種盤裡，最後它們都長成了植物，種子也可以很好吃。

It's fun to eat sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds.

There are many types of seeds in the world that are very yummy to eat as well.

世界上有很多種類的種子，吃起來也非常美味。

This is what we use when we talk about putting a seed in the ground.

這就是我們所說的把種子播到地裡。

Farmers in our area will plant a lot of seeds in the ground later this spring.

今年春季晚些時候，我們地區的農民將在地裡播下大量種子。

So, when you take a seed that's dormant and you put it in the ground or you put it in soil and if it gets the right things which I'm going to talk about in a moment, it will start to grow but the verb we use is to plant and you put it into the soil or the ground.

所以，當你把一粒休眠的種子放在地裡或土壤裡，如果它得到了正確的東西，我馬上就會講到，它就會開始生長，但我們使用的動詞是種植，你把它放在土壤或地裡。

Generally, we plant seeds into soil in our seeding trays.

一般來說，我們將種子播種到播種盤中的土壤裡。

If you are putting seeds into a pot, you would probably say you're putting it into soil.

如果你把種子放進花盆裡，你可能會說你是把它放進土壤裡。

If you're outside, you plant seeds in the soil or in the ground.

如果在室外，您可以將種子種在土壤裡或地裡。

You could use either word to describe it but that is what will make seeds come out of their dormancy and start to grow to germinate.

你可以用任何一個詞來形容它，但這就是讓種子擺脫休眠，開始生長髮芽的原因。

So, once a seed starts to grow, it sends out usually a little root and a little stem.

是以，種子一旦開始生長，通常會發出一點根和莖。

The gets to a point where it will start to grow and we call that germination.

到了一定程度，它就會開始生長，我們稱之為發芽。

We hope that when we plant seeds, they will germinate.

我們希望播下的種子能夠發芽。

It's nice to see them germinate and start to send down roots and send a stem up and the verb is to germinate.

很高興看到它們發芽，開始生根發莖，動詞就是發芽。

So, a sprout is something that might be familiar to you because we eat sprouts.

所以，芽對你來說可能很熟悉，因為我們吃芽。

Um you can eat bean sprouts, you can eat sunflower sprouts, you can eat alfalfa sprouts.

嗯，你可以吃豆芽，可以吃葵花籽芽，可以吃苜蓿芽。

A sprout is when the seed has germinated and it's sent out either maybe just a root, maybe a root and a little bit of a stem but usually just that first root and then you are able to eat it maybe in a salad or something else.

發芽是指種子發芽後長出根部，也可能只有根部和一點點莖，但通常只有第一根，然後你就可以把它做成沙拉或其他東西吃了。

Um Jen used to do more sprouts in our kitchen.

嗯，珍以前在我們的廚房裡做過更多的芽菜。

We should probably do that more because sprouts are very very healthy.

我們也許應該更多這樣做，因為芽菜非常非常健康。

So, as I mentioned, plants have different parts.

所以，正如我提到的，植物有不同的部分。

The root is the part of the plant that grows down into the soil.

根是植物向下長入土壤的部分。

So, generally, when a seed germinates, it will send out its first root and that root will go down into the soil so that the plant can get water and other nutrients from the soil in order to grow.

是以，一般來說，種子發芽後會發出第一條根，這條根會深入土壤，這樣植物就能從土壤中獲得水分和其他養分，從而生長。

I think it has a couple other pronunciations but I say root.

我想它還有其他幾個發音，但我說的是根。

They actually make the soil healthier as well because they go down and they break up the soil.

實際上，它們還能讓土壤變得更健康，因為它們會向下移動並分解土壤。

There are some crops that we grow just to make the soil better because the roots help make good soil.

我們種植一些作物只是為了讓土壤變得更好，因為根系有助於形成良好的土壤。

So, when a plant germinates and sends its first root down and then it sends its first stem up, eventually, it comes out of the ground and the verb we use is to emerge.

是以，當植物發芽並向下發出第一條根，然後向上發出第一條莖，最終，它從地下鑽出來，我們使用的動詞就是 "鑽出來"。

Um when I plant crops in my big field, I'm always eager for the seeds to emerge.

嗯，當我在我的大田裡種植莊稼時，我總是迫不及待地等待種子萌發。

I'm looking forward to seeing the plants.

I'm looking forward to seeing the plants emerge from from the ground.

It is a very exciting time when you see things.

當你看到這些東西時，你會感到非常興奮。

So, it's fun to see plants come up or to emerge from the ground.

是以，看到植物生長或破土而出是一件很有趣的事情。

When a plant first starts to grow, that tiny little plant, that first little stem and a few leaves that come out of the uh a seedling.

當一棵植物剛開始生長時，那小小的植株、第一根小莖和幾片葉子就會從幼苗中長出來。

Um Jen in the basement because we grow flowers on our flower farm.

嗯，珍在地下室，因為我們在花卉農場種花。

She plants seeds in the soil in the tray.

她把種子種在托盤裡的土壤裡。

Eventually, it will germinate and then the seed will emerge and then we'll have a little seedling after a day or two.

最後，它就會發芽，然後種子就會萌發，一兩天後就會有一棵小樹苗。

It'll put up a stem and then a couple little leaves and we'll have these cute little seedlings.

它會長出莖幹，然後長出幾片小葉子，我們就有了這些可愛的小苗。

So, the difference between emerge and germinate.

所以，萌發和發芽是有區別的。

Germinate means the seed starts to grow underneath the ground and when you say the seed, when you say the plant emerges, it means it comes out of the ground.

發芽的意思是種子開始在地下生長，當你說種子時，當你說植物萌發時，意思是它從地下長出來。

They are very similar but scientifically, germination would be the seed takes in water and sends out its first root.

它們非常相似，但在科學上，發芽是指種子吸水併發出第一條根。

So, you might not see it yet and then eventually, it will emerge and you will see it start to grow above the ground.

是以，你可能還看不到它，但最終它會出現，你會看到它開始在地面上生長。

That would be the little difference between to emerge and to germinate.

這就是萌發和發芽之間的細微差別。

The stem is just that piece that doesn't have anything else happening.

莖就是那一塊，沒有其他任何東西。

It just connects the bottom of the plant to the first leaf.

它只是連接植物底部和第一片葉子。

If you go far enough up, you will have a the stem.

如果往上走得足夠遠，就會有一個莖。

With a tree, you might actually call the main part the trunk or you actually call the main part the trunk and then you might say stems but usually we say branches when we're talking about a tree.

對於一棵樹，你可能會把主要部分叫做樹幹，或者把主要部分叫做樹幹，然後你可能會說莖，但通常我們在談論一棵樹時會說樹枝。

Leaves of course or leaf in the singular.

These are the green, usually green parts of a plant.

這些是植物的綠色部分，通常是綠色的。

有時是黃色、紅色或其他顏色。

This is the part of the plant that the plant makes in order to capture sunlight and I won't go into the details of what plants do with sunlight but they use sunlight in order to get energy to grow.

這是植物為了捕捉陽光而製造的部分，我不會詳細介紹植物如何利用陽光，但它們利用陽光來獲取生長所需的能量。

So, leaves are the part of the plant where sunlight can hit and the plant can grow and be strong and produce food or produce branches or produce.

是以，葉子是植物的一部分，陽光照射到葉子上，植物就能生長、茁壯，併產生食物或枝條或產品。

I'm thinking fruit or anything else that a plant produces.

我想的是水果或其他任何植物生產的東西。

So, a bud is anything that looks like this that will become a flower or a leaf, okay?

所以，花蕾就是任何看起來像這樣的東西，它會變成花朵或葉子，明白嗎？

Generally, a bud becomes a flower but our trees right now have all little buds on them and those buds on a maple tree will open and become leaves on the tree.

一般來說，花蕾會變成花朵，但現在我們的樹上都長著小花蕾，楓樹上的這些花蕾會開放，變成樹上的葉子。

When we see a bud on one of our flowering plants, that bud usually opens and becomes a flower.

當我們看到開花植物上有一個花蕾時，這個花蕾通常就會開放，變成一朵花。
