 我們總是在犯錯中, 學習更多新事物, 而且有時候也令你永生難忘 早上看到 Katy Perry 演唱會 花絮影片 ,  這一位爆紅的台灣女觀眾,  因為教Katy 中文令大家稱羨之時, 因為Katy不期然問他,  How do you say SELFIE in Chinese? 女粉絲想了一下, 冒出了 "自私" 這個詞.... 總之, 就是令老師們有點愣住了.(汗) 不過我想, 這位粉絲,  一輩子, 都不會忘記 [自拍] 英文叫做 selfie (selfy)  self portrait  (釋義: A picture taken of yourself that is planned to be uploaded to Facebook, Myspace or any other sort of social networking website.)                                                 * upload   上傳  / download  下載                                                 * social networking 社交網絡 (例如fb, ig, twitter..etc.) 老實說, 他的反應還算良好, 想到了音很接近的 " Selfish " (自私的) 然後我就想了, 其實很多台灣學生國高中學英文, 老師因為面對太多同學, 說真的沒有辦法一...

最簡單的招呼, 有時也很令人頭疼呢! How are you today? How's everything going? How do you do? 被問到這些你今天過得如何/最近怎麼樣的招呼 有時難免會想: 我除了I'm fine. 還能說什麼? 說真的有時後, 你說了i'm under the weather, 也不確定別人是不是想聽你吐苦水,所以最常不變的答案是: 一如往常 就這樣囉 跟平常一樣 普通普通 今天來個新說法, 不要再說I'm fine 或者 so so了 A: How's everything been going? B: SAME OLD, SAME OLD. same old story, 一樣的老故事 就是一如往常之意!

Sunday morning should always comes with a terrific brunch set!!! Who doesn't like brunch!!? 誰不愛早午餐呢! heart emoticon   BRUNCH ON FLEEK!   heart emoticon 早午餐感覺就是優閒生活的代表 A cup of cappuccino, a sun side up egg, some fried sausages or smoked salmon with rocket.....(天啊!為什麼週末還沒到? ) 注意到沒有!!! brunch on fleek! fleek這個字算是近代英語字彙, 首次出現也是2003年囉! 字典上釋義為awesome 的意思, 後來又因為某個黑人部落客Peaches Monroee上傳了短片讓大家看看她的"有型"眉毛,她說了eyeborws on fleek! 然後, 它變成一種"潮語" lol, anyways, 變成琅琅上口的表達很cool的意思, 什麼都可以on fleek 一下! 話說這週末,準備好要吃什麼早午餐了嗎? 我有好長的口袋名單!  ------------------------------------------------------------- lie/lay的練習題解答: baaab

動詞片語在平常外國人的生活對話中, 其實很常用。 原因不外乎是，很簡單的動詞和介系詞的組合，組合很多元，意思很多種，口語上也很好表達。 但對台灣學生來說，基本上是頭痛的部分之一。 國中一到三年級就有這個部分的學習，也有這樣的考題，常常被選項混淆的學生，會因此覺得動詞片語是不是要買一本從頭背到尾？ Eva個人的建議是，真的不用這樣窮忙。 因為，當你背完了第１０頁，你可能忘了第５頁了。 多看文章，就會遇到各種動詞片語，連著例句一起吸收，更事半功倍唷！ 以下有幾個句子： ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.
