    ES002|English Shades 英文語感光譜|同樣熱血,別人聽見的你不一樣:ambitious、earnest、ardent 到底差在哪?

    同樣都是「很想把事情做好」,英文換一個字,別人聽見的你可能完全不一樣。 這一集,瀛瀛坐進羊駝夏日節的企劃會議。 有人提出一個 ambitious plan,想把活動做得更大;有人說話沒有特別激動,卻聽得出非常 earnest;有人對自己的想法非常 intent,專心到差點聽不見別人的提醒;也有人因為太 gung-ho,差點把一場午夜遊行直接塞進企劃裡。 隨著會議繼續,原本只是「大家都很投入」,慢慢出現完全不同的英文語氣: ambitious、earnest、intent、avid、ardent、zealous、self-starting、gung-ho、solicitous、breathless、heated、fervent、wild、hot、vehement 它們都可能帶著很強的能量,卻不是把 eager 換成一個「更強的字」這麼簡單。 有些字讓人聽見企圖,有些是真誠,有些是情感上的熱,有些是使命感,有些則一不小心,就會讓原本的積極聽起來像冒進、衝突,甚至過度激烈。 這一集不從單字表開始。 我們先走進故事,經歷整場會議;再把時間慢慢倒回去,看同一股「熱」,究竟是怎麼被不同的英文說出來。 Story first.

In this episode of English Shades, Ying Ying steps into a planning meeting for the Alpaca Summer Festival. There’s an ambitious plan for something bigger.Someone sounds deeply earnest without raising their voice.Someone becomes so intent on solving a problem that they almost stop listening.And someone gets a little too gung-ho and nearly adds a midnight parade to the schedule. As the meeting unfolds, one general feeling—being highly engaged—begins to split into many different shades: ambitious, earnest, intent, avid, ardent, zealous, self-starting, gung-ho, solicitous, breathless, heated, fervent, wild, hot, and vehement. These words can all carry intensity, but they don't simply mean “a stronger version of eager.” Some suggest ambition.Some sincerity.Some emotional warmth or dedication.And others can make enthusiasm sound impulsive, confrontational, or stronger than the situation really was. Instead of beginning with a vocabulary list, we experience the story first—and then replay its key moments in slow motion to hear why each word belongs where it does. Story first.

    ES005|English Shades 英文語感光譜|都是「拿到」,英文為什麼不只用 get?|More Than “Get”: How Did You Actually Get It?

    「拿到許可」、「拿到經費」、「學到一項技能」、「收到該收的費用」—— 中文裡,我們很容易都用「拿到」來說。 但英文會偷偷告訴你更多。 展覽開幕前十天,瀛瀛和堂堂還缺場地許可、字幕設備,以及支付口譯員的經費。 堂堂看著待辦清單,只說了一句: We need to get everything by Friday. get 當然沒有錯。 可是接下來的十天,他們才發現,每一個「拿到」背後走的路完全不同。 有些東西要按照程序正式取得;有些資源要努力爭取,才能真正確定下來;有些不是別人交到手上,而是經過學習,慢慢變成自己的能力;有些錢看起來已經存在,卻要到真正形成收益之後,才算落袋。 obtain、secure、acquire、collect、realize…… 它們最後都可能被中文翻成「取得/得到」,但英文真正描寫的,是你怎麼走到那個結果。 這一集,我們跟著一場展覽從倒數十天一路走到開幕之後,看看同樣一句「我們拿到了」,為什麼換一個字,整段故事就不一樣了。 🎧 Story first. English follows. 我是羊駝瀛瀛,我們一起從故事裡,慢慢聽見英文的語感光譜。 本集Ig連結:https://www.instagram.com/p/DcTXfanEkMM/?img_index=1 歡迎追蹤 IG:@yingyingthealpaca_official 留言告訴我你對這一集的想法: https://open.firstory.me/user/cmmsw5g710s7e01y91e426tah/comments 加入會員,支持節目: https://yingyingthealpaca.firstory.io/join/tier/019da89c-a721-131d-4313-e275197d475c 🦙 想陪瀛瀛一起繼續做更多免費英文內容嗎?如果今天這一集有陪伴到你,你可以選擇:請瀛瀛吃一根紅蘿蔔🥕 一根紅蘿蔔(NT$50) 幫瀛瀛補充今天錄 Podcast 的體力。 https://yingyingthealpaca.firstory.io/join/tier/019fc281-7d30-e8e5-9af6-bee898843016 A permit, funding, new skills, equipment, fees, and finally—a profit. In Chinese, many of these moments can simply become one idea: “getting” something. But English can reveal much more about how it happened. Ten days before an exhibition opens, Ying Ying and Tang Tang are still missing several essential resources. Looking at the checklist, Tang Tang says: “We need to get everything by Friday.” There is nothing wrong with get. But over the next ten days, each thing arrives in a completely different way. Some things are obtained through a formal process. Some resources have to be secured through effort and planning. Some skills are gradually acquired until they become part of what you can do. Some payments need to be actively collected. And sometimes, value on paper does not become a real financial result until a profit is actually realized. Through obtain, secure, acquire, collect, realize, and other shades of “getting,” this episode follows one exhibition from its frantic final preparations to the results that come afterward. Because English doesn't always tell us only what you got. Sometimes, the verb tells us how you got there. 🎧 Story first. English follows.

    ES004|錢進來了,但你真的「賺」到了嗎?|earn, make, get, receive 到底差在哪?Money Came In—but Did You Really “Earn” It?

    工作坊結束,瀛瀛看著手機裡一筆一筆的入帳通知。 講師費、活動收入、抽獎贏來的禮券…… 看起來都是「得到錢」,但這些真的全部都能叫做 earn 嗎? 一場工作坊到底 made 多少錢?活動 brought in 的收入,為什麼不等於真正 brought home 的錢?工作換來的講師費,可以說 earned;星期一真正入帳時,卻又可以說 received。而抽獎得到的禮券,為什麼是 won,不是 earned? 這一集 English Shades,我們不從同義詞表開始。 先陪瀛瀛經歷一場工作坊,再回頭看看:當中文都可以說「賺到、得到、拿到」時,英文究竟把鏡頭放在哪裡。 你也會聽到: make / earn / get / receive / win / bring in / gain以及 bring home、gross、net、profit、pull in、pull down、bring home the bacon 等表達。 同一筆錢,換一個英文,故事看到的地方就不一樣。 Story first.

A teaching fee.Ticket revenue.A bookstore voucher won in a raffle. They all look like money coming in—but did she really earn all of them? What’s the difference between money you make and money you earn?Why can a workshop bring in NT$24,000 without Ying Ying bringing home NT$24,000?And why can she earn her teaching fee through work, but receive that same fee when it reaches her bank account on Monday? In this episode of English Shades, we don’t begin with a vocabulary list. First, follow Ying Ying through the story of her first paid English workshop. Then we’ll rewind the story and look more closely at why English chooses different words for different kinds of “getting.” Along the way, we’ll explore: make / earn / get / receive / win / bring in / gain plus expressions including bring home, gross, net, profit, pull in, pull down, and bring home the bacon.
