It can feel extremely awkward to start conversations in social situations where you don't know anyone, and it can feel even worse when it's not your mother tongue or your first language.

在不認識任何人的社交場合開始交談會感覺非常尷尬，如果不是母語或第一語言，感覺會更糟糕。

So let's start with our first topic, keep it simple.

是以，讓我們從第一個話題開始，保持簡單。

If you're someone who typically feels uncomfortable making small talk, feel free to keep things simple.

如果您通常不喜歡閒聊，那就簡單點吧。

You don't need to come up with any out of the box questions, just be yourself.

你不需要想出任何打破常規的問題，只要做你自己就好。

A great way to kick off any conversation is with a sincere greeting and introduction.

真誠的問候和介紹是開啟任何談話的好方法。

It's simple, but effective, and it's great for social events where you don't know many people.

它簡單而有效，非常適合在不認識很多人的社交活動中使用。

工作時，你可以說，你好，我是露西。

I just started in the marketing department.

I just wanted to stop by and introduce myself.

This is great for when you started a new position and don't know many of your colleagues yet.

這對於剛開始新工作、還不認識很多同事的人來說非常有用。

It shows that you have a genuine interest in meeting the people you might be working with.

這表明您對與您可能共事的人會面抱有真正的興趣。

There are many simple questions you could ask to get a conversation going after you've introduced yourself.

在自我介紹之後，您可以問很多簡單的問題來展開對話。

您最後一次觀看的節目是什麼？

Now, obviously it's important to be aware of the situation.

Don't just randomly throw out these questions.

Read the room and make sure you're listening to what other are saying so that you can ask appropriate questions at the right time.

閱讀會場情況，確保自己在傾聽其他人的發言，以便在適當的時候提出適當的問題。

If you're ready to branch out from some of the more simple conversation starters, one of the best things that you can do to instantly strike up conversation is to give a genuine compliment.

如果您已經準備好從一些簡單的對話開場白中跳出來，那麼您能做的能立即引起話題的最好的事情之一就是給予真誠的讚美。

Compliments help make a person feel appreciated and seen, and they are great for instantly making a good impression and building rapport.

讚美能讓人感覺到自己被欣賞、被關注，是立即給人留下好印象和建立融洽關係的好幫手。

And it doesn't need to be some over-the-top compliment or one that has the potential to make the other person feel awkward.

而且不需要誇張的讚美，也不需要可能讓對方感到尷尬的讚美。

Just give a genuine compliment and flash a bright, cheerful smile.

只需真誠地讚美，並露出燦爛、開朗的笑容。

The beauty of this technique is that it works in basically any scenario, whether you're at a party or in a job interview.

這種技巧的妙處在於，它基本上適用於任何場景，無論你是在聚會上還是在求職面試中。

At a party or another social gathering, you could say something like, I love how you've decorated your house.

在聚會或其他社交場合，你可以這樣說：我喜歡你對房子的裝飾。

或者說，我迷戀上了你的耳環。

Or, a question at the end helps to keep the conversation flowing.

或者，在最後提出一個問題，有助於保持對話的流暢性。

At the office, you could say something along the lines of, your work always shows so much attention to detail.

在辦公室裡，你可以這樣說："你的工作總是那麼注重細節。

Or, that was a really great question you brought up in the meeting today.

或者說，你在今天的會議上提出了一個非常好的問題。

If you're at a conference or a networking event, you could say, you have an excellent way with words.

如果你參加的是會議或交流活動，你可以說，你有很好的語言表達能力。

Practice giving heartfelt compliments and see how many new friends you instantly make.

練習發自內心的讚美，看看你能立刻交到多少新朋友。

Next point, when in doubt, talk about food.

下一點，有疑問時，談談食物。

This one might seem odd, but if you have doubts about what to say in a social setting, just talk about food or drinks.

這一條可能看起來很奇怪，但如果你在社交場合不知道該說什麼，那就談談食物或飲料吧。

Everyone has to eat or drink, and so it's something common that we all share.

每個人都要吃飯或喝水，所以這是我們共同的事情。

And the beauty of this topic is that it works in nearly all situations.

這個話題的魅力在於，它幾乎適用於所有情況。

At a party, where did you get that drink?

在派對上，你從哪裡弄到這杯酒的？

或者，你一定要試試菠菜蘸醬。

絕對是我迄今為止最喜歡的作品。

Or, have you tried any of the appetisers?

或者，您嘗試過任何開胃菜嗎？

I tend to hold pretty strong opinions about food.

So if someone were to ask me some of these, we would talk all night.

所以，如果有人問我這些問題，我們會徹夜長談。

Now, let's say you're in a more professional setting.

現在，假設你在一個更專業的環境中。

You could ask something like, do you have a go-to spot to grab a coffee round here?

您可以問這樣的問題：您在這裡有喝咖啡的好去處嗎？

Today's my first day, and I was wondering if you have any recommendations of where to get a quick bite to eat.

今天是我第一天上班，我想知道你們有沒有推薦我去哪裡吃點東西。

Just then, I introduced myself and brought up food, the perfect conversation starter.

就在這時，我介紹了自己，並提到了食物，這是一個完美的開場白。

Now, you could use this food idea on a first date.

現在，你可以把這個美食創意用在第一次約會上。

If there's a bit of a dull moment during the conversation, you could say something like, so I'm a bit of a foodie.

如果在談話過程中有些沉悶，你可以說 "我是個美食家 "這樣的話。

Do you have a favourite type of cuisine or any must-try restaurants in town?

您最喜歡哪種類型的美食，或者城裡有什麼必去的餐廳嗎？

I know, I asked quite a few questions, but one of them is sure to get the conversation flowing again.

我知道，我問了很多問題，但其中一個問題肯定會讓話題再次活躍起來。

I also shared a little piece of personal information about myself there, which brings us to our next topic.

我還在那裡分享了自己的一點個人信息，這就引出了我們的下一個話題。

If you want to connect with people, you need to speak from a place of authenticity, and you can do this by sharing something interesting about yourself, like telling a little anecdote or even cracking a few jokes, maybe a few self-deprecating ones.

如果你想與人溝通，你就需要從真實的角度說話，你可以通過分享一些關於你自己的有趣事情來做到這一點，比如講一些趣聞軼事，甚至開幾個玩笑，也許是自嘲式的。

If you're interested in British humour, I made a video all about it, and I've linked it down below.

如果您對英式幽默感興趣，我製作了一個關於英式幽默的視頻，鏈接在下面。

Yikes, I can't believe how underdressed I am for this event.

哎呀，我真不敢相信，這次活動我穿得這麼少。

A comment like this can break the ice, show you're quite humble, but you don't necessarily have to go down that route.

這樣的評論可以打破僵局，顯示出你的謙遜，但也不一定非要走這條路。

Anecdotes are also great, and these are personal stories or experiences that can add depth and relatability to a conversation, and bonus points if they're funny.

趣聞軼事也很不錯，這些個人故事或經歷可以增加談話的深度和親和力，如果有趣還能加分。

Here are some examples of some types of anecdotes you could share.

以下是一些您可以分享的奇聞軼事的例子。

Speaking of hiking, I went hiking near here last weekend, and the views were incredible.

說到徒步旅行，上週末我在附近徒步旅行，那裡的景色美不勝收。

Or, you mentioned you tried making Gordon Ramsay's scrambled eggs.

或者，你提到你嘗試過做戈登-拉姆塞的炒雞蛋。

Me too, and they came out terribly, but I'm eager to try them again.

我也是，做出來很糟糕，但我很想再試一次。

Notice that I'm providing some personal insight, but I'm also asking questions, showing my conversation partner that I'm actively listening to what they're saying.

請注意，我在提供一些個人見解的同時，也提出了一些問題，向我的對話夥伴表明我在積極傾聽他們在說什麼。

You should also try to find common ground.

One of the easiest ways to start a meaningful conversation is to talk about things you have in common, like in the office.

開始有意義對話的最簡單方法之一就是談論你們的共同點，比如在辦公室裡。

或者在飛機上，如果他們想談談的話。
