一腌闯、性格
-01-性格外向者&性格內向者皆有
First of all I got a confession to make: I am an introvert. What’s introvert? It is kind of a person he actually just prefers to spend a lot of time alone.
But people may misunderstand introvert. They always think that it means shy. They think every introvert is shy. I won’t say I am shy. It just my way of personality is. for me, when I spend time alone that’s kind of like how I get energy. And after I get again I can go outen to world.
首先我要坦白的是蔽午,我是性格內向之人驮吱。什么是性格內向者茧妒?性格內向之人更喜歡花較多的時間獨處】饭荩可是人們總是誤解內向者嘶伟。人們總是認為性格內向就是害羞。但我不會說我是害羞之人又碌。內向只是呈現我的性格九昧。對于我來說绊袋,通過獨處使我獲得能量。我獲得能量后铸鹰,一樣可以出去外面癌别,融入外部世界。
But most people in the world they actually opposite to me. They are extroverts. This means when you are extrovert you just love to be around people all the time that’s what make you feel great basically. So we got some people who are extroverts in the world we got some people who are introverts in the world.
但在這個世界上蹋笼,大多數的人的性格實際上跟我相反展姐。他們是性格外向者。也就是說當你是外向者時剖毯,你喜歡你的周圍總是有很多人圍繞著圾笨,而這也讓你感覺很好。所以逊谋,在這個世界上擂达,有的人性格外向,有的人性格外向胶滋。
-02-了解性格
How’s this related you learning English? Well I think it does because it could really help you know the way you are learning English is right for you or you know you could change it make it better for you.
但這又跟你的英語學習有什么關系呢板鬓?我認為英語學習確實跟性格相關,因為這可以幫助你了解你學習英語的方式是否正確究恤,或者是幫助你改善你的學習方法俭令。
But also I would say in general the whole world English learning and teaching kind of forcus more on these guys because actually they have got a great advantages when it comes to learning languages.
但是總體上來說,大多數的英語學習和教學更多的是針對這些外向者的部宿,因為當涉及到學習一門新的語言時抄腔,外向者更具有優(yōu)勢。
so we gonna talk a little bit about these guys(extrovert) and give advices for the majorities you watching this video. But we also going to look into the introverts perspective because you know this is something I just found out myself. When I was trying to learn languages I found out that already realized at the time I was just really slow like I had been trying to remember words and really really slow. Everybody else already sat that everybody else already finished but the words came really slow to me. But I always understood a lot.
所以我們要稍微地討論下外向者并且給予正在看這個視頻的人一些建議理张。我們也會探討下內向者方面因為這是我從自身發(fā)現的妓柜。當我嘗試著學習語言時,我發(fā)現并且意識到我學得非常緩慢涯穷,記單詞記得很慢很慢。其他人都完成了藏雏,做好了我卻還沒好拷况。但是我的理解能力非常好。
It confuses me because somethimes I just rubish in learning languages but I understood a lot. So my speaking wasn’t soon advance as my other skills in learning languages. No something I realized later until which I see a video like this which helps me to understand why.
這當時讓我很是困惑掘殴,因為有時候我學語言學得很糟糕赚瘦,但是我的理解能力又非常好。所以我說的能力沒能像我其他方面的語言學習能力一樣快速得到提高奏寨。直到我觀看了類似我現在做的這個視頻內容起意,我才明白為什么會這樣。
-03-外向者vs內向者各自特點
So let’s take a look first of all, that’s expressions they could describe extroverts and introverts. So an extrovert is somebody who thinks the more the merrier. That means there are more people around me the happier I am. They love to be around people. extroverts also all often the life and the soul of parties. That means at the most fun people in the room and people like to around them. Great fun people like to have fun in the party. Also very often extroverts are chatterbox. Bla bla bla talking all the time. Always got something to say. Extrovert is a chatterbox. I am just pointing out the differences I am not thinking that you guys are wrong to be an extrovert. That just way you are.
所以首先讓我們來看一下病瞳,這些表達可以用來描述外向者和內向者揽咕。所以外向者就是那些認為人越多越熱鬧的人悲酷。意思是我的周圍有越多的人的話,我會感到越開心亲善。外向者喜歡周圍都是人设易。他們也經常是轟趴上的活躍人物。意思是屋內有越多的人蛹头,他們就會得到越多樂趣顿肺。并且很經常,外向者就是話匣子渣蜗⊥雷穑總是一直講個不停,總是有話要說耕拷。我這里只是指出外向者和內向者之間的不同之處讼昆,并不意味著說外向者就是錯的,這只是外向者的行為處事方式而已斑胜。
Let’s have a look in introvert, the person who like spending time alone all the time. So you could say them the motto is it just me, myself, and I. Happy to be alone. You could also think introvert at a party is more like to be a wall flower. A wall flower is someone who used to not going to start a conversation with anyone, not going to be dancing around having great amazing conversations, the wall flower is going to be a bit shy and they are going to wait for other people to come around to talk with them. And the introvert also likes to have deep and meaningful conversations doesn’t like small talk doesn’t like chatter, chatter, chatter, likes to talk on the meaningful level. So they have got different ways of being.
讓我們看一下內向者控淡,這些人喜歡獨處。所以你可以說他們的座右銘是:這就是真實的我止潘,這是正常的我掺炭,這都是我。喜歡獨處的我凭戴。你也可以認為內向者在轟趴的時候涧狮,經常更像是壁花。壁花就是不會主動跟人交談的人么夫,不會主動去跟人跳舞者冤,或是夸夸其談之人。壁花之人有點害羞档痪,并且只會等其他人主動上前來跟他們交談對話涉枫。內向者也偏向于喜歡有深度的,有意義的對話腐螟,他們不喜歡閑聊愿汰,不喜歡講個不停,只喜歡在有意義的層次上進行交流乐纸。所以他們的行為方式不同衬廷。
how’s that related to learning English?
但這又跟學習英語有什么關系呢?
二汽绢、性格與語言學習的關系
-01-外向者的優(yōu)勢
Well like what I said earlier, the extrovert really has learning advantages when it comes learning languages because most people when they learn a language , they do because they want to be able to speak, they learn languages because communication is so much about speaking. And great things for you if you are an extrovert, you are so curious and so social. You want to know what happening all the time. You want to be in the middle of things. You want to know what it going on. And that’s great advantages for you because it is talk.
就像我早些時候說的吗跋,學習語言時,外向者具有較好的優(yōu)勢,因為大多數的人學語言時跌宛,他們希望能夠使用新的語言交流酗宋,他們學習新的語言也是因為對話交流跟講息息相關。如果你是名外向者的話秩冈,那么你的好奇之心以及善于社交的能力對你來說也是件好事本缠。你想知道發(fā)生了什么事,想知道怎么了入问,這些都有利于你學習語言丹锹,因為這都是關于講。
You talk you take every opportunity to talk. It is a prompt feeling. So you could be in an new situation in a different country or something. But maybe you feel a little shy because you don't want to say something wrong. But your lead to be in conversation is so strong. You are so proactive and you will talk. So that means you get many opportunities to practice. So good for you developing in your English. So if you are an extrovert you will learn languages much more quickly at least as speaking level.
你會抓住每一個機會講話芬失,所以當你在陌生的情景下楣黍,或是不同的國家時,這是種很本能的反應棱烂。但是因為你不想說錯話租漂,所以你可能會有點害羞。但是你想講話交流的欲望非常強烈颊糜。你很主動哩治,前攝,所以你會去交談衬鱼。意思是你會獲得更多的機會練習語言业筏。所以這有利于你提高你的英語。所以至少在說的層面上鸟赫,外向者學習進步得快蒜胖。
-02-內向者的優(yōu)勢
And your introvert friends.
來說說內向者。
Your introvert friends really got shy speakers. They might not shy people but you know like small talk, for example, like speaking in the other languages at the very basically levels like what’s your hobbies?
That kind of an introvert always thinking I can’t bring myslef to ask the question. So they might know what to say, but they might not say it. And because they don't say it the mouth is not getting the practice speaking as the other language.
你們的內向者朋友真的是害羞抛蚤,不愛講話台谢。他們不是性格害羞,而是像閑聊啊岁经,比如學習新語言時的基本問題:你的興趣愛好是什么朋沮?內向者總是想著自己無法說出口,問這樣的問題缀壤。他們可能知道要說什么朽们,但是他們可能不會說出來。也因為他們不經常說诉位,他們嘴部沒能得到鍛煉。
They know all in their heads, but they not actually using it. So this could make the progress to the language as quite slow. And also the introvert very often miss opportunities to speak. Because they are hesitant, maybe before they speak they think about what they are going to say. Plus they don't initiate, they don't start the conversation with people. introvert waits for the other people to come and speak to them.
他們只是在頭腦里保留知識菜枷,沒有說出來苍糠。因為這樣他們學習語言的進程就相當慢。并且內向者經常會錯失開口講話的機會啤誊。因為他們通常是遲疑的岳瞭,可能在他們開口說出之前拥娄,他們會先思考下該說什么。并且他們不會跟人們主動交談瞳筏。內向者通常是等待別人上前跟他們搭話稚瘾。
When you are an introvert, you are quite fearful of mistake. You don't to look stupid, you don't want to say the wrong thing. That’s one of the reasons you don't speak to people. so this is not looking very good for you learning a language as an introvert.
如果你是內向者的話,你其實相當害怕會犯錯姚炕。你不想讓人看起來是笨笨的樣子摊欠,不想犯錯誤出糗。這也是你不跟人們講話交談的原因之一柱宦。所以這些看起來對內向者學習語言是不利的些椒。
But it is not all buts because let’s look at the other side of the situation now. if you are an extrovert you might be great at talking, but I know it as a fact, very often, extroverts are not so good at listening.
但是呢,從另一個方面來看的話掸刊,如果你是個外向者的話免糕,你可能擅于談論講話,但是我知道的一個事實是忧侧,外向者很經常并不善于傾聽石窑。
Because you just want to be talking and not so much listening to other people are telling you. This is also about a defect for exroverts. It often means they have small passive vocabulary.
因為你只想一直講話,并沒有太注意別人跟你說了什么蚓炬。這也是外向者的一個缺點松逊。他們的詞匯量通常是動詞詞匯。
You don't actually know that many words. but the words you do know you could use very well you know you could have great conversations with it. So that’s good. On the other hand, the introverts might be not saying much, but they could be great listeners, they could understand a lot more than the extroverts. The extrovert really seems like they know everything and can say everything.
實際上外向者并沒有知道很多詞匯试吁。但是只有這些詞匯棺棵,你們也可以運用得很好,所以這挺好的熄捍。另一方面烛恤,內向者可能不善于說很多,但是他們是很好的傾聽者余耽,比起外向者缚柏,內向者的理解能力很好。外向者似乎無所不知碟贾,無所不談币喧。
But they don't understand so much. Also the introvert has really wide passive vocabularies. There are lots of words they know. But the thing is it can be a time delay at remembering those words. so very often, you miss opportunities in conversation you know them, but they come to slow to you.
但是他們理解得不多。并且內向者也有廣泛的動詞詞匯量袱耽。他們知道很多詞匯杀餐。但是這往往要花費內向者很多時間來記憶這些單詞。所以很經常地朱巨,你會錯失交談機會史翘,哪怕你稍后會想道并知道要說什么。
This is one of the reasons the introverts are good at writing in their own language and also in English. Because when you write you have a little bit extra time to rememer what you want to say. Also because introverts very often like to do self by themselves. We could say maybe they have got more time for actually what they study for their work. So very often they have better grammar skills, because they are actually willing to do that kind of work.
這也是為什么內向者擅長用母語和英語寫作的原因。因為當你寫作時琼讽,你有多一些的時間記住你想說的內容必峰。同時也因為內向者經常喜歡自學。我們可以說他們有更多的時間對自己的工作內容進行研究钻蹬。所以通常內向者的語法技巧更好吼蚁,因為他們愿意做這樣的研究工作。
三问欠、對癥下藥
So what you can do now you know the strength and weakness via being an extrovert or introvert. I have got some advices for you.
所以通過作為內向者和外向者的優(yōu)劣勢分析肝匆,我這里有些建議想分享。
And I think it could help your development when you are learning English basically. So we saw the extrovert. It’s really amazing the extroverts are kind of people who can learn a language or English as you just on the street. They can go to a place and just kind of learn from people they are around. They are so great. For introvert that would be really hard to do because it would take so much courage to make themselves speak in every single opportunity they got.
我想說這能幫你提升你的英語學習溅潜。來看下外向者术唬。外向者是那種走在大街上就能學習新的語言或是英語的奇特的人。他們可以通過到一個地方然后從周圍的人身上學習語言滚澜。他們很厲害粗仓。內向者做不到這樣,因為這往往需要耗費他們很多的勇氣來抓住每一次的談話交流機會设捐。
They probably won’t do it. So anyway if you are an ectrovert, it is easy for you to take every opportunity to speak, so that’s why doing immersive experiences, travling to other countires, where you could do exchange or sign in different countries that’s great for you. Because again you take every opportunity to speak.
他們可能不會這么做借浊。所以如果你是個外向者,你就可以輕而易舉地抓住每個談話的機會萝招,這就是為什么真實的經歷蚂斤,到國外旅行當交換生或到不同的國家等對外向者學習語言是有利的。因為你會抓住每一次機會講話發(fā)言槐沼。
Also traditional toefl classes is also great for you as well because that’s a big class of people, you can swalk, you can talk to many people in the room that’s great for you. So much opportunities for you to practice in traditional classroom situation. What’s not so useful for you? I would say book learning in general. You really like to have your English practiced actively. You like to speaking, you like to be involved, you like to be doing things.
并且傳統(tǒng)的托福課程也有利于你曙蒸,因為班級里有很多人,你可以走來走去地跟同學講話岗钩。你有很多機會練習語言纽窟。什么對你來說是沒用的呢?總體上我會說課本學習兼吓。你比較喜歡主動地練習英語臂港,喜歡講話,喜歡參與其中视搏,喜歡做事情审孽。
So where you can make sure you have been doing that. Of course, studying is helpful, but for you, you really develop your English just by being in the right situation around the right people. also I hear couple of times when extroverts told me, oh I cant never learn on skype, that’s what I am the person or something because I have to be around more people.
所以在這樣的課堂中,你可以做到這些浑娜。當然研究型學習也是有幫助的佑力,但對于你來說,你只有在周圍有很多人的情境下才會使你的英語真正獲得提升筋遭。很多次外向者跟我說打颤,我不能用skype學習啊杂数,我就是得處在人群中交談才能學習的啊。
I mean that’s somethig you have to discover for yourself, could be 1 on 1 situation actually works for you. Just general rules extroverts do like be around a lot of people. so perhaps maintaining, teacher-student interaction as much as hours as not something an extrovert really going to enjoy so much. Also audio learning programmes it could be ok but not fantasic for the extroverts because there is not interaction there for them.
我的意思是瘸洛,這些你要懂得從自己身上去發(fā)現出來。這可能是一對一的會有助于你的學習次和。總體上反肋,外向者喜歡周邊都是人。所以可能持續(xù)性的踏施,教師與學生的長時間互動等并不是外向者所能喜歡并享受其中的石蔗。音頻學習課程也是可以的,但對外向者來說效果并沒有很好畅形,因為沒有太多互動养距。
Advices for my introvert friends, fun of being silly but talk to yourslef. Because you don't take opportunity to speak, what you know in your head is often at a much higher level or your ability to actually say it as speakers. So when you try to speak, the words don't come out in the really ince way that you want them to. Just because you haven’t practice on your mouth enough. But when you talk to yourself nothing could go wrong, you could just talk to yourself. So that’s something to try. You can make a friend. Someone you feel real comfortable speaking English with. So you can get a lot of practice with that person feel good about for you doing it. Something would be really scared for you when you come to learning a language and that’s ok.
給內向者的建議是,雖然有點傻里傻氣的日熬,但請跟自己對話棍厌。因為你不能抓住機會發(fā)言,你所知道的竖席、停留在腦海里的內容通常是高層次狀態(tài)耘纱,或者高于你實際的說話交談能力所以當你試著發(fā)言時,這些話并沒能按照你所希望的方式很好地表達出來毕荐。因為你沒有讓你的嘴部有足夠的練習束析。但是如果你自言自語的話,你就不用害怕會犯錯憎亚。所以值得一試员寇。你也可以交個朋友。交一個你與之交流英語的也不會覺得尷尬的朋友第美。所以你可以跟這個人進行很多交流練習蝶锋。你開始學習英語時,你會很害怕斋日,但這是沒關系的牲览。
For example, as speak from my experience, in a typical TOEFL classroom situation there is an very strong atmosphere on games all the time. Always playing games with this person speaking around things. Moving to another table speaking to another person and it can be straining for an introvert because they are there are many people. there are many small talks, there are many of games. So if you like me went like that. Also big class maybe something you don't like because there are many people that you need to speak to and that maybe shake your confidence a little bit and you might not feel to good. Teaching yourself is one of your strength, so it is ok just do lots of self study.
比如,從我的經驗來說恶守,典型的托福教室里總帶有很強的游戲氛圍第献。總是跟這個人就某些事物侃侃而談兔港,然后又移動到下一桌庸毫,跟另一個人講話。對內向者來說這可能是壓力很大的衫樊,因為這樣的教室里有太多的人了飒赃,如果你跟我一樣的話利花。可能你也不喜歡大教室载佳,因為你要跟太多的人講話炒事,這會挫敗你的自信心,你會覺得不自在蔫慧。但是自學是你的優(yōu)勢挠乳,你可以自己做很多事。
譯者話
是的姑躲!我也是內向者睡扬。對比這個視頻列舉的種種,于我自身而言黍析,我的寫作能力和理解能力會比我說的能力要好卖怜。
雖然自認為自己不是靜得下心的人,但是相對于外向者阐枣,我算是坐得住的人马靠。也比較喜歡獨處,習慣自己一個人做自己的事侮繁,比如看電影虑粥,聽歌,寫作..
至于害羞這一點宪哩,對于不熟悉的人娩贷,我的表現給人的感覺的安靜害羞的 = =但靜若次子動若脫兔這一描述也 挺適合我的...跑題了好像。
最主要想說的是锁孟,學無定法彬祖。在選擇學習方法之前,不如先了解下自身優(yōu)缺點品抽,從而制定出更適合自己的方法也不失為一種選擇储笑。
