 “高级”≠high level

“高级”在英语中说法很多,要看语境翻译,如果是“高级的英语”可以这么说:

Classy: 高级的,上等的

Sophisticated: 精致的,典雅的

Elegant: 优雅的

英语世界的人有一些通用印象,比如英式口音比较高级。

但也不全是这样,所以今天我们要学一些具体实用的技能。



#1.Use pleasantries 

使用礼貌用语


Pleasantry: 礼貌用语

Polite language: 礼貌的话

尽可能多地在工作、生活中使用礼貌用语更符合英语的使用习惯。

请人帮忙多用:

Please: 请, 而且注意要把please放在句尾。不然放在句首,听起来会很不耐烦

例如:

Could I have a cup of coffee, please?

Please, could I have a cup of coffee?

Could you/would you mind...: 你能不能

这里的could, would和时态没有关系,而是软化语气的作用。

得到帮助,得到服务不吝:

Thank you: 谢谢你

道别的时候,除了good bye, 也别忘了:

Have a nice day/evening!

Enjoy the rest of your day!


#2.Pace of speech

语速


语速快也不代表英语好,反而:

Don't sound too hurried. 听起来不要急吼吼。

口齿清楚最重要。



#3.Don't start every sentence with “I think”

不要总是说“I think”


为了表示自己的观点,很多同学喜欢一直说:

I think/I feel...

但这样太呆板,也太多余。不如换个说法:

I feel like...

If you ask me...

It's like...

I mean...

另外,不必要每句都用这些说明,直接说出你的观点也是可以的。



#4.Don't add vowels 1 to consonants 2

不要随意在辅音后面加元音


很多人有个普遍的发音错误,就是习惯在辅音后面加元音,比如:

Think, 说成think+ə

Eat, 说成eat+ə

Drink, 说成drink+ə

k,t这样结尾的辅音千万不要加元音!❌ 轻轻带过即可。✅

Jenny还有一个小窍门: 就是发这些尾音时,你的嘴唇不应该张着。如果是,那肯定加了不该加的元音。
