  • Ok, Lucy, quick question.

    Lucy,我有一個問題要問你。

  • Why did you use pigeons as your main example throughout this whole video?

    你為什麼要用鴿子作為這支影片的主要例子?

  • Look, don't worry about it.

    聽著,別擔心這麼多!

  • It... it will be fine.

    會...會沒事的

  • If you ask a language teacher: "How can I improve my vocabulary?"

    如果你問一位語言老師:「我該如何增加我的詞彙量?」

  • They'll probably say something similar to:

    他們可能會說與下面大同小異的話:

  • "Read books, watch films, speak with natives, do vocabulary exercises, and repeat, repeat, repeat!"

    「多讀書、多看電影、多與母語人士聊天、多做單字練習,然後無限重複以上的步驟!」

  • These are all valid points!

    這些都是令人信服的論點!

  • When I was learning Spanish, I managed to expand my vocabulary incredibly quickly, and this is thanks to a method that I created for myself.

    當我在學西班牙文時,我想盡辦法非常快速地增加自己的詞彙量,這一切都是托我自己創造辦法的福。

  • This method probably already exists, but I identified my need and I created a solution.

    這個辦法可能之前就已經存在了,但我意識到我的需求,並找到了一項解決方法。

  • I needed something that I could do bit by bit, day by day.

    我需要的是可以讓我一點一點、一天一天慢慢學的東西。

  • And I'm gonna explain to you how you can do this method, too.

    我會跟你們解釋該如何去做這件事。

  • My method is going to help you train your brain to start thinking in that second language.

    我的方法會有助於訓練你的頭腦,開始用第二外語思考。

  • So, what's the first step?

    所以,第一個步驟是什麼呢?

  • Well, when you wake up in the morning, you somehow need to remind yourself that today I'm going to be searching for words that I don't already know.

    早上起床時,你必須提醒自己:今天要找出一些還不會的單字。

  • Constantly!

    持續不斷地找!

  • So whether you put a poster on your door, a post-it note on your fridge, a reminder on your phone, anything to remind you that today, new words!

    所以不管你是在門上貼海報,或是貼便利貼在冰箱上,又或是在手機裡設提醒,任何可以提醒你今天要學習新單字的東西!

  • So, from the minute you leave the house, you need to be on the lookout for words that you don't know.

    所以,從離開家裡的那一刻起,你就需要開始尋找你不知道的單字。

  • Try to start thinking in the language that you're trying to learnfor me it's Spanishso, I'm thinking in Spanish.

    嘗試用你正在學習的語言去思考——對我來說就是西班牙文——所以我用西班牙文思考。

  • I see a pigeon.

    我看到一隻鴿子。

  • Paloma. (Spanish)

    鴿子 (西班牙文)。

  • Ok, I know that one.

    我知道這個單字。

  • I see a bus stop.

    我看到公車站。

  • I'm not sure how to say that in Spanish.

    我不太確定西班牙文的這個單字。

  • So, I whip out my phone quickly, write it down in English, and then I forget about it.

    所以我迅速拿出手機記下英文單字,然後我就先遺忘它。

  • And I keep on doing that throughout the day.

    我會持續這樣做一整天。

  • So you're constantly on the lookout.

    所以你會不斷地密切關注。

  • Do I know that in Spanish?

    我知道那個東西的西班牙文怎麼說嗎?

  • Yes I do, left it.

    是的,我知道,那就先置之不理。

  • Do I know that in Spanish?

    我知道那個東西的西班牙文怎麼說嗎?

  • No, I don't, write it down.

    我不知道,那就把它寫下來。

  • You might end up with five words at the end of the day.

    一天下來,你可能會有五個不會的單字。

  • You might end up with twenty words at the end of the day.

    一天下來,也可能會有二十個不會的單字。

  • It depends on your level, and also where you are.

    這取決於你的程度,以及你身處的地方。

  • By doing this, you are training your brain to become accustomed to thinking about things in that second language, and it will help you towards fluency.

    用這個方法,你可以訓練大腦去習慣用第二外語來思考,這會幫助你更精通那個語言。

  • Then, you're also creating a list on your phone of all the things that you've seen throughout the day that you don't know how to say.

    然後,你同時也在手機裡創了一項清單,記錄你一整天看過卻不會說的東西。

  • Now the important part of this comes when you arrive home in the evening.

    最重要的部分就是,當你傍晚回家後。

  • So when you get home from work or university that day, you need to dedicate a couple of minutes to creating a word diary.

    不管是從公司還是學校回家後,你需要花幾分鐘的時間來寫單字日記。

  • I use a notepad for this because I like to use two pages per day.

    我用筆記紙來記錄,我一天喜歡用兩頁。

  • So, I write the date, I write a short sentence about what I did that day.

    我會寫下日期,寫一句簡單的句子說一下我那天做了什麼事。

  • And then I go ahead and I look at the words that I didn't know today on my phone, and I add them into my diary.

    然後我就會開始看手機中今天不會的單字,然後把他們加到日記裡。

  • So...

    好...

  • So the words I saw today were: pigeon, litter, bus stop, jewellers and skyscraper, and I don't know how to say those in Spanish.

    所以我今天看到的單字有:鴿子、垃圾、公車站、珠寶商還有摩天大樓,而我不會用西文說那些單字。

  • So I move on to the next page.

    然後我會翻到下一頁。

  • And I go and search them on the internet.

    我會上網查這些單字的西文。

  • So the first word waspigeon.“

    所以第一個字是「鴿子」。

  • So I get my computer.

    我拿出我的電腦。

  • I use a website like "WordReference".

    我都用 WordReference 這個網站。

  • I search "pigeon," and I listen to the pronunciation.

    搜尋「鴿子」,然後聽發音。

  • "paloma" (Spainish)

    paloma (西班牙文)。

  • Great, "paloma."

    很好,鴿子 (西語)。

  • And then I add that to my word diary.

    然後我會把它寫在我的單字日記裡。

  • One of my words was "skyscraper" that I didn't know.

    另一個我原本不會單字是「摩天大樓」。

  • So I use "WordReference" to search for "skyscraper,"

    我就會用同個網站來找「摩天大樓」。

  • And then I listen to the pronunciation.

    接著聽發音。

  • "rascacielos" (Spanish)

    rascacielos (西班牙文)

  • "rascacielos" (Spanish)

    rascacielos (西班牙文)

  • OK, and I add that to my word diary -"rascacielos".

    好,我把它寫進單字日記裡,rascacielos (西班牙文)。

  • Great!

    非常好!

  • And then I just keep on doing that untill my list is full!

    然後我會一直重複這樣做,直到我的列表滿了。

  • And then I have a definitive list of all the new vocabulary that I saw today.

    然後我就會有一個完整的每日新單字列表。

  • So ideally, you need to do this diary every day.

    所以理想中,你必須每天都為你的單字日記增添內容。

  • Make it a part of your life, and a part of your routine.

    讓這個過程變成你生活作息的一部分。

  • So what you're actually doing by following this process and this method is you're training your brain to be constantly looking and confirming that it knows words in that second language.

    所以不斷遵照這個過程和方法是在幫助你訓練你的大腦,無時無刻都在觀察和確認你是否知道那個單字在第二外語裡的講法。

  • And immediately, when it doesn't know, alert!

    還有當不知道時,就要馬上注意!

  • You write that word down, and then you know that you're going to search for it later.

    你把單字記下來,然後你會知道你晚點要去查字典。

  • It's really interesting to look back through your word diary after months of doing this process.

    在做這個訓練的幾個月後,回過頭來看你的單字日記會很有趣。

  • Because you see words and you just think: "Oh my god, I can't believe I didn't know how to say that!"

    因為你看到某些單字時會想:「天哪,我真不敢相信我以前不會那個單字!」

  • When you wake up the next morning after having completed your diary the night before, you'll immediately see: skyscraper, rascacielos, pigeon, paloma!

    當你前一晚寫完單字日記,隔天醒來後,你會馬上知道:skyscraper=rascacielos,pigeon = paloma。

  • You just are constantly there, it's in your mind.

    那些單字就會烙印在你腦海裡。

  • Once you've trained your brain to think and process in this way, it's going to be so much easier to pick up vocabulary, and also to identify where your vocabulary is lacking!

    一旦你訓練大腦要這樣思考後,記住新單字會變得更容易,還有會意識到自己缺乏哪部分的單字!

  • For many of you, this might not work!

    對一些人來說,這可能不管用!

  • Give it a try!

    但是試試看!

  • If it does work I'd love to hear about your success stories.

    如果有用的話,我很想聽你們分享自己的經驗。

  • If you ask a lang... ufffffff...

    如果你問一個語...啊啊啊 (NG 片段)

Ok, Lucy, quick question.
