現在進行式

I teach English and I firmly believe that the English language can be really really stupid and I know that sounds harsh, but let me explain if You're learning English and you find the English language difficult.

我是教英語的，我堅信英語可能真的很笨，我知道這聽起來很刺耳，但如果你在學英語，覺得英語很難，請聽我解釋。

You find that sometimes it doesn't make any sense You're confused.

你會發現，有時這根本說不通，你會感到困惑。

You're frustrated Then I want to tell you that there's a good chance the problem is not you Because the English language is difficult.

你很沮喪，那麼我想告訴你，問題很可能不在你身上，因為英語很難。

It can be really confusing and honestly, it can be stupid There are times when things just don't make sense So in today's video, I'm going to talk to you about why?

有時候，有些事情根本說不通，所以在今天的視頻中，我將和大家談談為什麼？

English can be so difficult and I also want to give you some good news so stay till the end of the video because I'm going to give you some good news, which will hopefully help motivate you and Encourage you to learn English Now one thing that happens when students first start learning English Maybe you can relate to this.

英語可能很難，我也想告訴大家一些好消息，所以請留步到視頻結束，因為我將告訴大家一些好消息，希望能激勵大家學習英語。

Maybe this is something that happened to you, too But a lot of students find English easy at the beginning They find it simple they find it not as complicated as some other languages and This is true at the beginning English is actually quite basic we only have one Definite article.

也許你也遇到過這種情況，但很多學生一開始都覺得英語很簡單，他們覺得英語很簡單，不像其他語言那麼複雜。

We don't have masculine or feminine nouns we have one word we have the one word for everything the and the simple tenses In English not the complicated tenses, which you learn later, but the basic tenses like the present simple past simple They're simple.

我們沒有陽性或陰性名詞 我們只有一個詞 我們用一個詞代表所有東西 簡單時態 在英語中 不是複雜的時態 你以後會學到的 而是基本時態 比如現在完成時 過去完成時

I Did you did he did we did they did it's all the same and a lot of languages at?

我做了你做了他做了我們做了他們做了這都是一樣的，還有很多語言。

The beginning you have to memorize a lot when you get more advanced in English So maybe you get to the b2 or the c1 level you start to realize that Things get a lot more difficult and this is where the challenge Begins it seems like every rule you've learned in the past has an exception so you have to relearn things you have to learn them again and This is one of the difficult things about English It's a bit deceiving because at the beginning it seems to be quite easy But the more advanced you get the more you realize that oh There's a lot more to this language than I expected now one of the most difficult things about English is spelling and pronunciation and Unfortunately English can be really really challenging when it comes to these two areas Now whenever you learn a new word It's not enough just to learn the word Because if you look at a word It's impossible to know the pronunciation just by looking at the spelling Because there are so many different ways of pronouncing things in English You actually need to learn the pronunciation at the same time you learn the word so Whenever you learn a new word go to Google go to Bing go to any of these translation sites Type the word in and then press the play button There's always a play button so you can actually hear how the word is pronounced So you're not only learning the word you're not only learning the definition But you're also learning the pronunciation at the same time It's really going to save you a lot of time and a lot of effort So you don't have to go back and learn the pronunciation again So whenever you learn something new you learn a new word you learn a new phrase Always look up the pronunciation and learn the correct pronunciation at the same time now Why is English spelling and pronunciation?

一開始你要背很多東西，當你的英語水平越來越高時，也許你到了 b2 或 c1 級，你開始意識到事情變得越來越難，這就是挑戰開始的地方，似乎你過去學過的每一條規則都有例外，所以你必須重新學習，你必須再學一遍，這是英語的難點之一。但越到高級階段，你就越會意識到，哦，這門語言比我想象的要複雜得多 現在，英語最難的地方之一就是拼寫和發音，不幸的是，英語在這兩個方面真的非常具有挑戰性。因為在英語中有許多不同的發音方式，所以在學習單詞的同時，你還需要學習發音。是以，每當你學習一個新單詞時，都可以去谷歌、必應和任何這些翻

Well, there's actually a historical reason for this so 500 years ago in the past we spelt words Similarly to the way we do today But we pronounce them completely differently and What happened and this is completely normal.

其實，這是有歷史原因的，500 年前，我們拼寫單詞的方式與今天相似，但發音卻完全不同，這完全是正常的。

This is completely natural is we changed our pronunciation?

這是完全自然的，難道我們改變了發音？

over the years But we changed our pronunciation and not our spelling.

但我們改變的是發音，而不是拼寫。

So our spelling is like this old-fashioned Reflection of Pronunciation is now modern.

是以，我們的拼寫就像這種老式的 "發音反映"（Reflection of Pronunciation），現在已經很現代了。

So there's this gap between pronunciation and spelling today and that's why English can be so difficult because we haven't updated our spelling a lot of languages have but English has never done this and It's one of the things that I don't like about the language now as I mentioned earlier it's also true that every rule in English has an exception and This is something that can be very frustrating because the only way to learn these exceptions is To memorize them to learn them individually and to memorize them So as you get more advanced in English You will have to spend a lot of time memorizing rules, but also exceptions memorizing spelling memorizing pronunciation Memorizing tenses irregular verbs all that stuff Now I mentioned earlier that I did have some good news So yes, it can be very very confusing.

所以今天的發音和拼寫之間有差距 這就是為什麼英語這麼難 因為我們沒有更新我們的拼寫 很多語言都更新了 但英語從來沒有這樣做過 這是我不喜歡這種語言的原因之一英語中的每條規則都有例外，這一點可能會讓人非常沮喪，因為學習這些例外的唯一方法就是背誦它們，單獨學習並背誦它們，所以當你的英語水平越來越高時，你將不得不花大量時間背誦規則、我在前面提到，我確實有一些好消息，所以是的，這可能非常非常令人困惑。

It can be frustrating to learn all these rules to learn all these exceptions but the good news is That as I said before Basic English is relatively simple.

學習所有這些規則，瞭解所有這些例外情況可能會令人沮喪，但好消息是，正如我之前所說，基礎英語相對簡單。

You don't need to speak perfectly to express your ideas and To get your thoughts across to the other person Now if you've watched my other videos or maybe you're a student of mine, you'll know that I often say that The purpose of language is not perfection.

如果你看過我的其他視頻，或者你是我的學生，你就會知道我經常說語言的目的不是完美。

It's communication So when you speak when you learn a language your priority needs to be communicating Getting your ideas to the other person and you can do this without being perfect It's okay to make mistakes Everybody makes mistakes even native speakers so Don't wait to start speaking.

是以，當你學習一門語言時，你的首要任務是交流，將你的想法傳達給對方，你可以做到這一點，但不需要做到完美，犯錯誤沒關係，每個人都會犯錯誤，即使是母語人士，所以不要等著開始說話。

Don't wait until some magical moment Where suddenly you're going to be perfect or suddenly you're going to be able to speak without making any mistakes Because that's never going to happen It's it's impossible You will make mistakes But there's nothing wrong with that now That's not to say that you shouldn't Improve your spelling that you shouldn't improve your pronunciation your grammar or that you shouldn't learn these rules and these exceptions because you absolutely should and Honestly, you need to if you want to become Truly fluent if you want to improve your writing if you want to improve your English generally But that shouldn't stop you from communicating right now that shouldn't stop you from Expressing yourself and expressing your ideas in English Ideally, you should be communicating in English every day.

不要等到某個神奇的時刻，突然之間你就會變得完美無缺，或者突然之間你就能夠不犯任何錯誤地說話，因為那永遠不會發生，這是不可能的，你會犯錯誤，但現在這並沒有什麼不對，這並不是說你不應該改進你的拼寫，你不應該改進你的發音，你不應該改進你的文法，或者你不應該學習這些規則和這些例外，因為你絕對應該，而且說實話、如果你想變得真正流利，如果你想改進你的寫作，如果你想普遍提高你的英語水平，你就需要這樣做，但這不應該阻止你現在用英語交流，不應該阻止你用英語表達你自己和表達你的想法。

You should be doing something productive in English and at the same time Not instead of speaking but at the same time Simultaneously, you should also be working to improve your spelling your pronunciation your grammar Learning the rules learning the exceptions at the same time Not instead or not replacing speaking.

你應該同時用英語做一些有意義的事情，而不是代替口語，但同時你也應該努力提高拼寫、發音和文法水準，同時學習規則，學習例外情況，而不是代替或不代替口語。

It's something that should happen at the same time and That's the important thing that's the thing that I want you to take away from this video Yes, English can be difficult English can be stupid and I think it is stupid sometimes but unfortunately That's just the way it is there's no getting around that and as I said, the good news is That you can still use the language.

這才是最重要的，也是我想讓你們從這段視頻中得到的啟發。是的，英語可能很難，英語可能很蠢，我覺得有時確實很蠢，但不幸的是，這就是事實，沒有辦法改變。

You can still speak you can still communicate Even if you don't speak perfectly even if you don't have perfect spelling even if you don't have perfect pronunciation Eventually the more you practice The more you speak the more you study the rules the more you study these exceptions The better your English will become the more confident you will feel but it's a journey It's a process.

即使你的口語不完美，即使你的拼寫不完美，即使你的發音不完美，你仍然可以說話，仍然可以交流。 最終，你練習得越多，你說得越多，你對規則研究得越多，你對這些例外情況研究得越多，你的英語就會變得越好，你就會感到越自信，但這是一個歷程，是一個過程。

It's not something that happens overnight So start speaking English Today not next week not next month, but today Learn the rules.

是以，從今天開始說英語，不是下週，也不是下個月，而是從今天開始 學習規則。

Yes, learn the exceptions But don't focus on them Focus on speaking.

是的，要學習例外情況，但不要把注意力放在例外情況上，而要集中精力說話。
