Hi, I'm Vanessa from SpeakEnglishWithVanessa.com.

嗨，我是來自 SpeakEnglishWithVanessa.com 的 Vanessa。

Are you ready to relax when you speak English?

你已經準備好輕鬆說英文了嗎？

Today I'm on the beach, and it's very sunny, very hot even though it's 7 o'clock in

今天我在沙灘上，即使現在是早上七點，

太陽還是依然很大、天氣依然炎熱。

Costa Rica, it's beautiful, and what better place to relax than at the beach, right?

這裡是哥斯大黎加，這裡真美，最棒可以放鬆的地方不就是沙灘了嗎？

But you can't always be at the beach when you're speaking English.

但是你不能總在沙灘上才說英文。

So today, I want to give you my top tip for helping you to relax, de-stress and feel comfortable

所以今天我想要分享給你很棒的技巧，

幫助你在說英文時，可以很放鬆自在。

I know that a lot of you use English for your job.

我知道你們很多人是工作上要用到英文。

Maybe you need to speak in English with a foreign company, or maybe you need to speak

也許你需要和外商公司用英文溝通、

with your clients that are from other countries.

或是和來自不同國家的客戶談生意。

This is a pretty stressful situation because number one, you want to be polite, you want

這是非常緊張嚴肅的情況，因為首先你想要表現的很有禮貌，

你想要代表公司表現出最好的形象。

But also you want to represent yourself well.

但同時你自己也想要表現得很好。

You want to be confident, be an adult who can express yourself completely.

你想要成為有自信且可以完整表現出自己的大人。

So when you speak in a business situation, I would consider this the top maybe most stressful

我認為最有壓力的情況就是當你在工作時

Maybe you're walking around New York City on your vacation, and you get lost, or you

也許你在紐約度假閒逛的時候迷路了，

want to find a good restaurant, so you want to ask for a recommendation, and you decide

或是你找到一家不錯的餐廳，你想要問推薦的餐點時，

然後你決定要接近一個陌生人。

You want to talk with a native English speaker.

Well, this is also can be pretty stressful, but it's a little bit less stressful than

這也算是非常緊張的狀況，但沒有像工作上那麼有壓力，

a business situation because you're not going to lose your job.

What if you go to an English class in your city?

那如果你是在自己的市區裡上英文課呢？

You're surrounded by other people who are also learning English.

This is slightly different than approaching someone in New York or having a business meeting

這和在紐約接近某人的情況或是有工作會議的情況下有些不同，

because they understand exactly the situation that you're in.

They understand exactly that kind of nervousness, that kind of stress or fear about speaking

他們真的了解那種緊張感、那種害怕用其他語言與他人說話的壓力，

another language because that's what they're doing too.

What about if you're just at home watching this lesson, and you're repeating it out loud?

那如果你只是在家看這個影片，然後大聲反覆地說呢？

You're maybe watching the subtitles, which you can always click on on YouTube.

你也許看著字幕，只要點 YouTube 上的某個按鈕就看的到字幕，

You're watching the subtitles, and you're trying to repeat out loud after me.

你看著字幕，然後試著大聲地重複說我說過的話。

No one's listening, you're just at home by yourself, but you still need courage to be

沒有人聽得道，只有你自己在家聽到，但是你仍需要勇氣去說，

able to use your voice, to use your pronunciation muscles and speak out loud and hear your own

用你的發聲的肌肉，大聲地說英文，

然後自己也要聽到自己的聲音。

This is I think, the least stressful situation and this is my tip.

我想這是最不會緊張的情況，然後這就是我的技巧。

這就是我建議你可以開始學習的地方。

If you feel super stressed about speaking English, start at the easiest level and this

如果你說英文時感到非常緊張的話，你可以從最簡單的階段開始，

You can shadow or repeat directly after me in these videos, you can look at the subtitles

你可以跟讀或是在我說完後直接重複說，

below the screen if you're on the computer.

如果你的電腦是開著，你可以看螢幕下方的字幕。

You can just click CC in the bottom corner or if you're on your phone you can click those

你可以點在底下角落的 CC 按鈕，如果你是用手機看的話，

three little dots at the top of the screen, and you'll see the subtitles.

你可以點選螢幕上方的那三個小點，然後你就會看到字幕了。

You could just repeat out loud after me and get used to hearing your own voice using English.

你可以大聲重複我說的話，然後習慣你說英文的聲音。

I know for me when I visited other foreign countries, like in Costa Rica here, they speak

對我來說當我去其他國家觀光時，像是在這哥斯大黎加，

I feel a little bit strange at first hearing my own voice trying to say something in another

當我第一次聽到我自己的聲音用其他語言說話時，

language and maybe you felt that feeling too.

我覺得很不自在，也許你也有這種感覺。

So when you get used to hearing your own voice using English, you'll start to feel a little

所以當你習慣聽自己說英文時，你就會感到自在一點，

more comfortable and then you'll be able to work up to the next level.

然後你就可以邁向下一個階段。

After you've mastered speaking with yourself alone, no one's watching.

在沒人看著你時，你可以掌握自己說英文後，

Then you can go to that next level, which is speaking with other people who really get

那麼你就可以邁向下一個階段，就是和其他人說話，

這些人是要真的可以理解你的感覺。

Maybe other English learners are here on YouTube, or I know a lot of you who are part of my

也許是其他在 YouTube 上的英語學習者，

course, the Fearless Fluency Club, a lot of you speak together on Skype.

或是我知道你們有很多人是我無畏流利社團中的成員，很多人會在 Skype 上對話。

You connect with each other daily, maybe on WhatsApp, on Skype on Google Hangouts and

你們每天都和彼此聯繫，也許是在 WhatsApp、Skype、Google Hangouts，

just try to connect, get to know other cultures, other people, but also you can get over your

試著去連結且了解其他國家的文化和人們，

fear of speaking together because you're both in the same boat.

同時你也可以克服說話的恐懼感，因為你們在同一艘船上。

This is a wonderful idiom that means you're both in the same situation.

這個很棒的片語表達的意思是你們處在相同的情況。

That involves maybe a little bit of risk, a little bit of stress.

也許含有一些風險、一些壓力。

You're both in that situation, and you can both understand each other.

你們同在那樣的情況，你們可以互相了解。

So speaking with another English learner is a great next step up to help build your confidence.

所以在你可以掌握自己說英文之後，

After you've mastered speaking with yourself.

和其他英語學習者對話是很棒的下一步，可以幫助你建立信心。

You've spoken with another English learner, now it's time to speak with a native speaker.

你已經和另一個英語學習者聊天，現在是時候和英語母語者說話了。

It could be someone who lives in your city, who you trust, maybe a co-worker who is from

可以是市區內你相信的某個人，也許是來自美國的同事，

the US and you want to just have some coffee together and chat together.

你想要和他喝杯咖啡，一起聊天。

You already know each other and trust each other.

Or maybe you just go to another city, like you go to London and you want to order in

或是也許你去其他城市，像是倫敦，

Maybe you can watch my video about how to order in a restaurant up here.

也許你可以看我的影片，內容是有關如何在餐廳點餐。

You'll be able to just feel a little more comfortable because you've already worked

你會感到更加自在，因為你已經開始著手更多步驟，

those steps starting small than working more and more and more, and now you're speaking

Personally, I think something really magical happens when you speak with a native English

就個人而言，我覺得當你和英文母語者說話時，然後他們可以理解你說的，

speaker, and they can understand you, you can understand them, and you just have a real

你也可以理解他們說的話，你和他們是真的對話，

我覺得這是很神奇的事情發生了。

Something happens that is amazingly magical for your confidence.

這就像是驚人的魔法注入你的信心。

When you realize, "Vanessa can understand me?

當你明白時，你會說：「Vanessa 你可以懂我在說什麼嗎？

This other native speaker can understand me, and I'm communicating?

其他英語母語者可以懂我說的話，我正在和他們溝通？

You have this beautiful boost of confidence, and it really helps you to just increase your

這確實可以幫助你以其他方式提高英語能力。

What do you think happens next after you've spoken with yourself, you've built your confidence,

在你已經掌握自己說英文建立信心、

you've spoken with other English learners, you've built your confidence and then you've

和其他英語學習者對話建立更多信心、

spoken with native speakers in a kind of casual situation?

然後你在偶然的情況下和英語母語者交談後，你覺得接下來會是什麼？

Now, it's time to move on and speak at your job.

現在就是要進入下個階段，在工作上說英文。
