所以 Pokemon 毫無疑問是世界上最有名的 anime 之一。

這樣你就不會錯過我們任何一堂新的課程。

Ash Ketchum 是個來自 Pallet Town 的男孩。

In the world of Pokemon, once children turn 10, they are allowed to choose a Pokemon partner to adventure with, catch more Pokemon, battle against gym leaders, and

在 Pokemon 的世界裡，小孩滿 10 歲就可以選擇一位 Pokemon partner 來展開冒險，捕捉更多 Pokemon，挑戰 gym leaders，並且

aspire to become a Pokemon champion by defeating the best trainers in their region, the Elite Four.

透過擊敗他們地區最強的訓練家，也就是 Elite Four，來爭取成為 Pokemon champion。

Ash has just turned 10, and it's time to choose his partner.

Ash 剛滿 10 歲，是時候選擇他的夥伴了。

But he overslept and he's late to meet Professor Oak, who will give him his first Pokemon.

但他 oversleep 了，所以他遲到了，沒辦法見到會給他第一隻 Pokemon 的 Professor Oak。

it took me a long time, but I finally decided to choose Squirtle.

花了我很多時間，但我終於決定要選 Squirtle。

Though already taken by someone who was on time, I wish I hadn't overslept.

雖然已經被準時到的人選走了，但我希望我沒有 oversleep。

那是不是代表所有的 Pokemon 都沒了？

Did you hear how fast Ash says this sentence?

你有沒有聽到 Ash 講這句話的速度？

We have three instances here in which the letter T is pronounced as a flap T.

我們這裡有三個地方，字母 T 的發音是 flap T。

We have an interesting grammatical structure here.

I wish plus a simple past versus I wish plus the past.

I wish 後面加簡單過去式，對比 I wish 後面加過去完成式。

You can use this structure to express regret for something, or to say that you wanted something else to happen instead.

你可以用這個結構來表達對某件事的後悔，或是希望當時有別的事情發生。

For example, if you say I wish I woke up earlier, you're saying that you don't wake up early now in the present moment.

舉例來說，如果你說 I wish I woke up earlier，意思就是你現在沒有早起。

Basically, you're stating that you want to establish a new routine.

基本上，你是在說你想要建立一個新的習慣。

However, if you say, I wish I had woken up earlier, you're saying that you didn't wake up early at a certain point in the past.

不過，如果你說 I wish I had woken up earlier，意思就是你過去的某個時間點沒有早起。

Now you're expressing regret about something that has already happened.

現在你是在為已經發生的事情表達後悔。

This is how Ash uses this structure here.

這就是 Ash 在這裡使用這個結構的方式。

To oversleep means to sleep too much more than you should.

oversleep 的意思就是睡過頭，比你應該睡的時間還要多。

In this scene, frustrated because the Pokemon he wanted is not available anymore, Ash is expressing regret about having overslept.

在這個場景裡，Ash 因為想要的 Pokemon 已經不在了而感到沮喪，他正在表達他後悔睡過頭。

That's why he says, I wish I hadn't overslept.

這就是為什麼他說，I wish I hadn't overslept。

Check out this clip where Ash uses this structure again.

來看看這段影片，Ash 又再次用到了這個句型。

I know it doesn't sound easy, Ash, but you're the only one who matches the legend perfectly.

我知道這聽起來不容易，Ash，但你是唯一一個完美符合傳說的人。

Well, right now, I wish my mom had named me Bob instead of Ash.

嗯，現在我真希望我媽當初給我取名叫 Bob，而不是 Ash。

The phrase the early bird gets the worm is a proverb that means whoever arrives first has the best chance of success.

The early bird gets the worm 這句話是諺語，意思是先到的人最有機會成功。

Did you know that in English, people who like to wake up earlier than everybody else and who feel more productive in the morning are called early birds?

你知道嗎？在英文裡，那些比別人早起，而且早上感覺比較有生產力的人，就叫做 early birds。

這是不是代表所有的 Pokemon 都沒了？

When something is gone, it's not available anymore either because it was taken, used, or stolen.

當某樣東西不見了，就代表它無法再取得了，可能是因為被拿走、用掉或偷走了。

Let's watch another example from the series.

我們來看影集裡的另一個例子。

The phrase in that case here has a similar meaning to if you insist, we can use this phrase when we agree to something we didn't agree with before, or when we change our mind about something.

「 in that case 」這個片語在這裡的意思，跟「如果你堅持的話」很像，當我們同意一件我們原本不同意的事，或是改變心意時，就可以用這句話。

For example, once I tried to convince my older brother to lend his Super Nintendo to my friend.

例如，有一次我試著說服我哥哥把他的 Super Nintendo 借給我的朋友。

At first, my brother wasn't very happy about it, but

一開始，我哥哥不太高興，但是

then I told him that if he lent his Super Nintendo, my friend would lend us his Gameboy so we could play Pokemon on it.

後來我告訴他，如果他借出 Super Nintendo，我朋友就會借我們 Gameboy，這樣我們就可以玩 Pokemon 了。

After I said that, my brother replied, well, in that case, okay, I'll lend him my Super Nintendo.

我說完之後，我哥哥就回說：「嗯，既然這樣，好吧，我就借他我的 Super Nintendo。」

What is Ash's name in the original Japanese version of Pokemon?

Pokemon 日文原版裡，Ash 的名字是什麼？

If you watch the anime in Japanese, then you already know that the main character's name is Satoshi, not Ash.

如果你有看日文版的 anime，那你應該就知道主角的名字是 Satoshi，而不是 Ash。

This is in honor of the man who created Pokemon, Satoshi Tajiri.

這是為了紀念 Pokemon 的創作者 Satoshi Tajiri。

When he was a kid, Satoshi collected bugs in the wood by his house.

他小時候，Satoshi 會在他家附近的樹林裡抓蟲。

His friends even called him Dr. Bug because he was so obsessed with collecting and cataloging them.

他的朋友們甚至叫他「蟲博士」，因為他對收集和分類蟲子非常著迷。

Creating Pokemon was a way for him to reconnect with that fascination.

創造 Pokemon 是他重新連結那份著迷的方式。

He had with nature and different creatures.

他對大自然和各種生物的著迷。

As a kid, you might be surprised that Ash's last name, Ketchum, is a great way for you to learn about Kinect speech.

小時候，你可能會驚訝 Ash 的姓 Ketchum，其實是個很棒的方式，可以讓你學習 Kinect speech。

Oftentimes, natives reduce pronouns in fast speech.

通常，母語人士在快速說話時會省略代名詞。

Him becomes Im, her becomes er, and them becomes em.

Him 會變成 Im，her 會變成 er，them 會變成 em。

So in fact, Ash's last name is derived from the theme song and catchphrase of the series in the usa.

所以事實上，Ash 的姓氏是源自美國這系列的主題曲和口號。

You probably know gotta is a reduction of got to.

你可能知道 gotta 是 got to 的縮寫。

So what the catchphrase is saying is that you have got to catch them all, which is one of the objectives in the video games and series.

所以這句口號的意思是，你必須抓到所有 Pokemon，這也是電玩和影集中的目標之一。

Check out these examples from friends with the reduction Gadda.
