Lindsay:

Hey Gabby. How's it going?

Gabby:

Hey Lindsay. Good. How are you?

Lindsay:

Feeling good. We just had lunch, so… Gabby: 我們剛剛吃過午飯，所以…加比：

Yeah.

Lindsay:

…I'm feeling kind of stuffed, but feeling good and satisfied. ||||饱胀|||||满意 ||||appesantito||||| Ready to go.

Gabby:

It was good. Grilled cheese and lentils. |||扁豆 grigliato|||lenticchie |||レンズ豆 烤起司和扁豆。

Lindsay:

(Hmm) awesome lunch. （嗯）很棒的午餐。 All right.

Gabby:

So today's (uh) ‘Teaching Tuesday.' We're going to talk about conversation – so confidently carrying your conversation, meeting new people. |||||||自信地|||||| 我們將討論對話──自信地進行對話、結識新朋友。 So if you listened to Monday's episode, you know that Lindsay met my roommate and my roommate's boyfriend. |||||月曜日の|||||||||||ルームメイトの| 所以如果你聽了周一的節目，你就會知道林賽遇到了我的室友和我室友的男朋友。 So that was, that was pretty cool. 所以，那真是太酷了。 That was just an informal meeting here in the apartment where we're recording. ||||casual|gathering|in this location|||recording location|at|we are|making a recording 那隻是在我們錄音的公寓裡舉行的非正式會議。

Our recording studio is my living room. |recording|recording space|||work|living room 我們的錄音室就是我的客廳。

Lindsay:

Yeah.

Gabby:

So, yeah, we wanna (want to) share some phrases or draw your attention to some phrases that we use to carry a conversation. ||||||||||引起|||||||||||| ||||||||||attirare|||||||||||| 所以，是的，我們想（想要）分享一些短語或提請您注意我們用來進行對話的一些短語。 These are strategies that you can use to have a really confident conversation. 您可以使用這些策略來進行真正自信的對話。

Lindsay:

Yeah.

So that's great. So the first thing that we, that I actually said was I looked for the connection, (um,) between Gabby, who's the person who introduced the new people and the new people. 所以我們，我實際上說的第一件事是，我尋找加比（嗯）之間的聯繫，而加比是介紹新人和新朋友的人。

Gabby:

Right.

Lindsay:

So I said, “So you guys are roommates?” Gabby: 於是我說：“所以你們是室友嗎？”蓋比：

Right.

Yeah, even though I introduced Morgan as my roommate, it's really great that Lindsay repeated that information. Да, хотя я и представила Моргана как своего соседа по комнате, очень здорово, что Линдси повторила эту информацию. 是的，儘管我介紹摩根是我的室友，但林賽重複了這個訊息真的很棒。 (You know), she's kind of confirming, and maybe asking for more information on that topic. |||||确认||||||||| |||||確認している||||||||| （你知道），她有點確認，也許還要求提供有關該主題的更多資訊。

Lindsay:

Yeah, exactly. And the next thing I asked was “How do you like the neighborhood?” Why? Bir sonraki sorum da "Mahalleyi nasıl buldunuz?" oldu. Neden? 我問的下一件事是“你喜歡這個社區嗎？”為什麼？ Because they're roommates, so I'm seeing that this is a topic that could bring the two together. Потому что они соседи по комнате, и я вижу, что эта тема может сблизить их. 因為他們是室友，所以我發現這是一個可以將兩人連結在一起的話題。

Gabby:

Right.

Lindsay:

Gabby and her roommate.

Gabby:

Lindsay:

Gabby:

So in general, comments on the environment are pretty great for carrying the conversation. 因此，總的來說，對環境的評論對於開展對話非常有用。

Lindsay:

Definitely.

What was the next question that was asked? ||||question|||inquired

Really common question you asked “What do you do?” Lindsay: |very frequent|common inquiry||inquired|job|do for a living|||Lindsay's response 您問的非常常見的問題“您是做什麼的？”林賽：

Almost boring. nearly not|not very exciting 幾乎無聊。 Almost too common. nearly|very|frequent 幾乎太常見了。 Gosh- so unoriginal. ||太没有创意 Wow|so one| ||「ありきたり」 ||non originale 天哪——太沒有創意了。

Gabby: Gabby speaking

Very common. |frequently occurring Yeah. agreement or affirmation

But especially in New England, this is maybe the first or second question that people will ask when you meet, (you know), outside of, (um), your job. |particularly|||New England|topic||perhaps|the|first question||second question|question||individuals|||||interact with|||not including||||workplace 但尤其是在新英格蘭，這可能是當你在（嗯）工作之外遇到（你知道）時人們會問的第一或第二個問題。

Lindsay:

For sure

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

Yeah, absolutely. 是的，絕對是。 It's very common ‘cause (because) people – again, people in the US work hard and sometimes people identify themselves through their job in some ways. 這是很常見的，因為人們——同樣，美國人工作努力，有時人們透過工作以某種方式識別自己。

Gabby:

Right.

Lindsay:

Right?

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

And then two follow-up questions that you could ask about that. 然後你可以問兩個後續問題。 If, if you find out what someone does, you could say (um) “How did you get into it?” Meaning what? 如果，如果你發現某人做了什麼，你可以說（嗯）“你是怎麼進入這個行業的？”這意味著什麼？

Gabby:

Well, how did you begin your career in that field? 那麼，您是如何開始在該領域的職業生涯的呢？

Lindsay:

Yeah.

Gabby:

Lindsay:

Gabby:

Did you study that or, or like last week we talked to (uh), to Jo and she just kind of accidentally started working for the Royal Family. ||||||||||||||||||||by chance|began|working|||British royal|Royal Family 你有沒有研究過這個，或者，或者就像上週我們和喬交談過的那樣，她只是意外地開始為王室工作。 I mean it wasn't a plan, right? |emphasize||was not||intention|question tag 我的意思是這不是一個計劃，對吧？

Lindsay: Lindsay's statement

Right. correct answer

To get into something is to begin something. 進入某事就是開始某事。 Yeah.

And another thing you could ask as a follow-up question to the career topic is “How do you like it?” Gabby: |additional|topic|||||||||||||||||||Gabby speaking 作為職業主題的後續問題，你可以問的另一件事是“你喜歡它嗎？”蓋比：

Right.

Yeah.

“How do you like it?” Yeah. Good questions for follow-up. Quality|questions||| (You know) it's so important to have these questions ready in your mind, (you know) ready to go so that you're not stalling and having long silences between questions. ||||||||||||||||||||||拖延|||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||fermare|||||| （你知道）在你的腦海中準備好這些問題非常重要，（你知道）準備好出發，這樣你就不會在問題之間陷入停滯和長時間的沉默。 It's kind of awkward. 這有點尷尬。

Lindsay:

Definitely.

Definitely.

And then when the conversation seemed to kind of die down a bit, Gabby jumped in because she knows both parties, both groups, both people. 然後，當談話似乎有點平息時，加比插了進來，因為她認識雙方、兩個群體、兩個人。 And, (you know), she added more info (information). ||||||信息|

She said “Oh, you know…” (uh). 她說「哦，你知道…」（呃）。

Gabby:

Something about cooking. 一些關於烹飪的事情。

Lindsay:

About cooking chocolate.

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

Yeah.

Gabby:

Lindsay:

Gabby:

Yeah, so you know I thought well this is something interesting that I know about my roommate and her boyfriend, (you know) common interests. 是的，所以你知道，我認為這對我的室友和她的男朋友來說是一件有趣的事情，（你知道）共同的興趣。 So it's always a nice strategy if you can add some information and (uh)… Lindsay: 因此，如果您可以添加一些資訊並且（呃）… Lindsay：這總是一個不錯的策略。

Yeah.

Gabby:

Yeah, kind of bring up a new topic that way. 是的，這樣就提出了一個新話題。

Lindsay:

Yeah, that's a good way to do it. That makes everyone feel a little bit more at ease. |||||||||放松 |||||||||a proprio agio 這讓大家心裡稍微踏實了一些。

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

Especially because Gabby, you're the one who knows both of us. 尤其是因為嘉比，你是認識我們兩個的人。

Gabby:

Right.

Lindsay:

(You know), you know your roommate, you know me. （你知道），你了解你的室友，你也了解我。 So it's good to – that you can do that. 所以你能做到這一點很好。

Gabby:

Yeah.

You're the only one who can do that. 你是唯一能做到這一點的人。

Gabby:

Spend time together. 共同度過時光。

Lindsay:

Definitely.

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

So I say “Let's get a drink.” Maybe you could say “Let's have a coffee, go for a walk or play a game of soccer,” whatever it is. 於是我說：“我們去喝一杯吧。”也許你可以說“我們喝杯咖啡，去散步或踢一場足球吧”，無論是什麼。

Gabby:

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. It could be really anything. 它真的可以是任何東西。 So it's kind of a nice way to (um) end the conversation and, (you know), let people know that you'd like to see them again. 所以這是一種（嗯）結束對話的好方法，（你知道），讓人們知道你想再次見到他們。

Lindsay:

Yeah.

Perfect. All right.

We've got some good ways to start a conversation. 我們有一些開始對話的好方法。

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

So we're gonna (going to) repeat?

Gabby:

Yeah, perfect. So (um) the first phrase that we're gonna (going to) have you repeat is a common question, “What do you do?” But, (you know) we say it faster than that, so let's try it faster. 所以（嗯）我們要讓你重複的第一句話是一個常見的問題，“你做什麼？”但是，（你知道）我們說得比那更快，所以讓我們更快嘗試一下。 Whaddya (what do you) do?” Lindsay: Waddya（你做什麼）？”林賽：

Right.

And I think we actually went through this in a previous episode, way at the beginning… Gabby: 我認為我們實際上在上一集中一開始就經歷過這個…加比：

Whaddya (what do you) do?

Okay next one. “How did you get into it?” Gabby: “你是怎麼涉足其中的？”蓋比：

And (a) follow-up question, “How do you like that?” or “How do you like it?” Okay and then the final phrase to wrap things up, “We should all hang out sometime.” Lindsay: |||||||||||||||||||||||concludere||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||私たち|べき||||| (a) 後續問題：“你覺得怎麼樣？”或“你覺得怎麼樣？”好吧，最後一句話來結束一切，“我們應該找個時間出去玩。”林賽：
