So I came out of the house this morning and realized that we're a little bit snowed in.

所以我今天早上走出家門時，才發現我們有點被大雪困住了。

And you can see the van is a little bit snowed in.

你也可以看到，那台廂型車也有點被雪困住了。

In English, when you say that you're snowed in,

英文裡，如果你說自己「snowed in」，

it means that you can't leave until you clean your driveway or clear your driveway.

意思就是：你得先把車道清乾淨，不然就沒辦法出門。

So that's what I'm going to do this morning.

所以我今天早上就要做這件事。

Jen's coming out with her camera and the drone,

Jen 會帶著她的相機跟空拍機出來，

and I'm going to teach you some English words and phrases that we use when we're snowed in,

而我會教你一些我們被雪困住時會用到的英文單字和片語，

when we have to clear our driveway or clean our driveway in order to go somewhere.

也就是必須清車道、清出一條路才能去別的地方時會用的說法。

我覺得這會是一支很有趣的影片。

It'll be a little bit different—kind of a different sort of English lesson than normal.

它會有點不一樣——算是跟平常不同類型的英文課。

But it'll certainly be a fun one to watch.

So when it's this cold, I do have to keep my tractor plugged in.

天氣這麼冷的時候，我得把拖拉機一直插著電。

如果你不知道這個東西英文怎麼說，

this is an extension cord that I can plug into the block heater on the tractor

這是一條延長線，可以接到拖拉機的引擎預熱器（block heater）

Before I started, though, I should point out some tractor parts.

不過在開始之前，我先介紹一下拖拉機的一些部位。

這個叫做前端裝載機（front-end loader）。

So this is what I'm going to use to clear the driveway.

And that allows me to scoop up the snow, or scrape the snow, or push the snow.

這讓我可以把雪鏟起來、刮雪，或把雪推走。

We'll get to those verbs in a little bit.

But right now, I'm going to see if it will start.

但現在我先看看它能不能發動。

When it's this cold, I hope the block heater kept it warm.

天氣這麼冷，希望引擎預熱器有把它保持溫暖。

So there are four things I'm going to do with this tractor, and I'm going to teach you those four verbs.

接下來我會用這台拖拉機做四件事，我也會教你那四個動詞。

And those verbs are good for other things as well, not just cleaning up snow with a tractor.

而且這些動詞不只用在拖拉機清雪，也能用在其他情境。

I am going to push the snow with the tractor.

第一個，我要用拖拉機把雪推走。

So I'm going to put the bucket down, and I'm going to push the snow.

我會把鏟斗放下來，然後把雪往前推。

And you'll see it all piling up in front.

I'm going to scoop the snow into the bucket.

You can see how, when I move my hands like this, I'm mimicking what the bucket will do.

你看我手這樣動，就是在模仿鏟斗的動作。

And then I'm going to find a place where I can dump the snow.

I'm going to tip the bucket, and the snow will fall out.

我會把鏟斗往前傾，雪就會掉出來。

I'll either put it on an existing pile, or I'll start a new pile.

我可能會倒在原本的雪堆上，或是重新堆一個新的雪堆。

And then when I'm all done, or almost done, cleaning the driveway,

然後當我清到差不多、或快清完車道時，

I'll put the bucket down and tip it just a little bit so it kind of does a nice final job on the driveway.

我會把鏟斗放下來，稍微傾斜一點，讓它幫車道做最後的收尾整理。

I will scrape up the last little bit of snow, and then I will dump that somewhere else as well.

我會把最後一點雪刮起來，再把它倒到別的地方。

I'm going to dump the snow, and when I'm all done,

我要把雪倒掉，而等我全部完成後，

I'm going to scrape the driveway so it looks really, really nice.

我要刮一下車道，讓它看起來非常、非常漂亮。

喔對了，我剛剛說「push the snow」。

Even though this tractor isn't really a snowplow,

雖然這台拖拉機其實不算真正的除雪車，

但有時候大家也會用這個動詞。

So I am pushing the snow, but I'm also plowing the snow, or plowing the driveway.

所以我是在推雪，但也可以說我在除雪，或在清雪車道。

我在把車道清乾淨（cleaning）。

I'm doing a lot just to get this driveway nice and clean.

為了讓車道變得又乾淨又漂亮，我真的做了很多事。

而且我還有一段路要清，才會全部完成。

So we also sometimes use the verb to dig out, or to dig yourself out.

另外，我們有時也會用動詞「dig out」，或「dig yourself out」。

So right now, even though this is a tractor and not a shovel,

所以現在雖然我是用拖拉機，不是用鏟子，

I can still say that I am spending time digging us out.

但我仍然可以說：我正在花時間把我們挖出來。

I've decided to get up this morning and make an English lesson, and to dig us out so that later today we can get out of the driveway.

我決定今天早上起床做一堂英文課，也把我們挖出來，這樣晚點我們就能從車道出去。

Okay, so just so you know, this is a snow drift.

好，順便讓你知道，這個叫做「snow drift」（風積雪）。

When the wind blows over the shed, the snow accumulates here.

當風吹過棚子時，雪就會在這裡堆積起來。

But this over here—by the way—this is a snow drift as well.

但這邊這個——順帶一提——也是風積雪。

This is a snow pile because this is where I dumped snow when I last cleaned the driveway.

這是一個雪堆，因為我上次清車道時就是把雪倒在這裡。

So you might be wondering, "How do I control the bucket?"

你可能會想：「那我怎麼控制鏟斗？」

Well, I have my control lever right here.

This will tilt the bucket back, so it will do this to the bucket,

這個可以把鏟斗往後傾，所以鏟斗會像這樣動，

So in order to control the loader and the bucket,

I use this lever to lift the loader up, to put the loader down, to tilt the bucket back,

我就是用這根控制桿來抬起、放下、後傾鏟斗，

And you might be wondering, why didn't I just use the snowblower?

你可能會想：我為什麼不直接用吹雪機（snowblower）？

A snowblower is a machine that, well, it kind of eats snow and then shoots it out onto the side of the driveway.

吹雪機就是一種機器，嗯……它有點像把雪吃進去，再把雪噴到車道旁邊。

And I could have used the snowblower, but maybe that's for another English lesson in the future.

我本來也可以用吹雪機，但也許那可以留到以後另一堂英文課再說。

I do really like cleaning the driveway with my tractor.

我真的很喜歡用拖拉機來清車道。

I don't know if you could see it on my face.

不知道你有沒有從我臉上看出來。

So maybe I'll use the snowblower next time.

But for this time, this was really, really fun for me.

但這一次對我來說真的、真的很有趣。

Well, hey, thank you so much for watching this English lesson about cleaning a driveway.

好啦，非常感謝你收看這堂關於清車道的英文課。

I hope you were able to learn some new words and phrases.

希望你有學到一些新的單字和片語。

I do want to thank my lovely assistant, Jen,

who came out in this minus 14 degrees Celsius weather to help me make this video.

在攝氏零下 14 度的天氣裡還出來幫我拍這支影片。
