Today we're learning English with the Nightmare Before Christmas, Tim Burton's classic animation where Jack the Pumpkin King decides to have Halloween take over Christmas.

今天我們要透過Tim Burton的經典動畫Nightmare Before Christmas來學英文，故事是關於Jack the Pumpkin King決定讓萬聖節接管聖誕節。

So let's jump right into our first scene today, where we can see the residents of Halloweentown preparing for Christmas in their own scary way.

那我們就直接進入今天的第一個場景，可以看到Halloweentown的居民們用他們自己嚇人的方式準備聖誕節。

Think you can manage a 1, and a 2, and a 3 and a.

你們覺得可以掌握1、2、3，還有嗎？

Now, why don't you all practice on that and we'll be in great shape.

那，你們大家就來練習一下，這樣我們就能準備得很充分了。

Sally, I need your help more than anyone's.

Sally，我比任何人都需要妳的幫忙。

My Christmas is filled with laughter and joy and this.

我的聖誕節充滿了歡笑、快樂和這個。

Who else is clever enough to make my Sandy Claus outfit?

還有誰有這麼聰明能做出我的 Sandy Claus 服裝呢？

I have every confidence in you, but it seems wrong to me.

我對妳很有信心，但我覺得這樣不太對。

So we've just seen Jack, who is assigning everyone roles and in their Halloween style Christmas prep.

所以我們剛才看到 Jack，他正在分配大家角色，並以他們的萬聖節風格準備聖誕節。

If you have an idea or you've just made a discovery, you can exclaim, eureka.

如果你有什麼想法，或是剛發現了什麼，你就可以大喊「尤里卡」。

就像我們剛才看到的 Jack 一樣。

這句話的意思是「我找到了」。

The word comes from ancient Greek and literally means, I have found it.

這個詞源自古希臘，字面上的意思是「我找到了」。

It's famously attributed to the scientist Archimedes.

這句名言據說是科學家阿基米德說的。

Think you can manage is a casual way to ask someone if they can handle something or take care of a task.

Think you can manage 是一種比較隨性的問法，想問某人是否能應付某件事或完成某項任務。

It's like saying, do you think you can do it?

這就像在說，你覺得你能做到嗎？

So in this context, to manage means dealing with a situation, a task or a problem, and

所以在這個情境下，manage 的意思就是處理一個情況、任務或問題，

But I'm here as a publisher speaking to her author because we're thinking of expanding your column into a full page.

但我是以出版商的身分跟妳的作者說話，因為我們正在考慮把妳的專欄擴展成一整頁。

Now, why don't you all practice on that, and we'll be in great shape.

那麼，大家就來練習一下，這樣我們就會準備得很充分。

When you are in great shape, you're in excellent condition physically.

當你準備得很充分時，你的身體狀況就非常好。

Or as the case here, in terms of preparation.

或者像這裡的情況，是在準備方面。

It literally means you're physically healthy.

字面上就是說你的身體很健康。

Little things like this happen with men of your age.

像你這個年紀的男人，這種小事都會發生。

Like here, look at this street hockey net.

就像這裡，看看這個街頭曲棍球網。

You know, we should take this home and set it up.

你知道嗎，我們應該把這個帶回家組裝起來。

莎莉，我需要你的幫忙，比任何人都需要。

Now, what do you think the word splendid means?

那麼，你覺得「棒」這個詞是什麼意思？

You can use splendid to describe events like a splendid holiday.

你可以用「棒」來形容像一個很棒的假期這樣的活動。

Or as an exclamation to show your approval or satisfaction.

或者當作一個感嘆詞，來表達你的讚許或滿意。

Here, let's practice some connected speech with this part.

來，我們來練習這部分的連音。

That's how we natives cut, reduce and link our words together in natural, fluent speech.

這就是我們母語人士在自然流利的口語中，如何將字詞連結、省略和合併。

現在，你們大家來練習一下，我們就會進入絕佳的狀態。

The combination of the letters T and Y often results in a new sound, ch, like we hear in this phrase.

字母 T 和 Y 的組合常常會產生一個新的發音，ch，就像我們在這句話裡聽到的。

現在，你們大家來練習一下，好嗎？

The T from don't blends with the Y from you.

don't 的 T 和 you 的 Y 連在一起。

然後它們一起產生了 ch 的發音。

And you can hear it again in this sentence.

你們也可以在這句話裡再聽一次。

現在，你們大家來練習一下好嗎？
