1
Thanks everyone, and Emily Chan will take it from here.
2
I looked up from my laptop.
3
There it was again.
4
Chan?
5
My last name is Chan, not Chan.
6
I had already heard it from Ben. From Rachel.
7
From people I had never even met.
8
Somehow, one small pronunciation mistake had spread through the office, and the worst part was, I knew exactly how it started.
9
I had never corrected anyone.
10
When I first joined the company, one of my co-workers mispronounced my last name during a meeting.
11
Welcome, Emily Chan, I noticed immediately.
12
But there were 15 people on the call.
13
Everyone was looking at me, and I had been at the company for exactly three days.
14
So instead of saying, actually, it's pronounced Chen, I smiled and said, thank you.
15
Happy to be here.
16
I told myself it was fine.
17
It was close enough.
18
Surely, someone else would say it correctly later.
19
No one did.
20
A few days later, Ben stopped by my desk.
21
Hey, Emily Chan, how's the new job treating you?
22
I almost corrected him.
23
I really did.
24
I opened my mouth.
25
Then Ben handed me a coffee.
26
This is for you.
27
I accidentally ordered two.
28
I looked at the coffee.
29
Then I looked at Ben.
30
And somehow, correcting my name suddenly felt ungrateful.
31
So I just said thanks.
32
A week later, Rachel introduced me to someone from another team.
33
This is Emily Chan.
34
She just joined our group.
35
I almost corrected her too.
36
But now another thought stopped me.
37
Maybe it was too late.
38
If I corrected them now, would they wonder why I had waited two weeks?
39
So I decided I would wait for a better moment.
40
That moment never came.
41
What came instead was a company meeting.
42
About 40 people were on the call.
43
Sarah was introducing the people working on a new project.
44
She said, Ben will handle the client side, Rachel will coordinate with operations, and Emily Chan will take care of the reporting.
45
There it was again.
46
Except this time, forty people heard it.
47
A few minutes later, someone I had never met sent me a message.
48
Hi, Emily Chan, nice to meet you.
49
I stared at the screen.
50
My name was now spreading.
51
This was no longer one pronunciation mistake.
52
It was becoming company knowledge.
53
At lunch, I finally told Ben.
54
Can I ask you something slightly awkward?
55
Ben looked worried.
56
That sentence has never led to anything good.
57
I laughed.
58
It's nothing serious.
59
Okay, I took a breath.
60
My last name is actually pronounced Chen.
61
Ben stopped chewing.
62
What?
63
Chen?
64
He stared at me for about two seconds.
65
Then he slowly put down his sandwich.
66
Have I been calling you Chan this entire time?
67
Kind of.
68
Kind of.
69
Yes.
70
Emily.
71
Yes.
72
Why did you not tell me?
73
I laughed.
74
I don't know.
75
It felt awkward.
76
Ben looked genuinely horrified.
77
I have introduced you to people.
78
I know.
79
I said it in front of Sarah.
80
I know.
81
I think I said it to a client.
82
I stopped smiling.
83
You did, Ben thought for a second.
84
Actually, no, that might have been Rachel.
85
That is somehow worse.
86
Ben covered his face with one hand.
87
This is terrible.
88
It's really not, it is for me.
89
Then he looked at me.
90
Okay, teach me.
91
I said my last name again, Chen.
92
He repeated it carefully.
93
Chen, yes, Chen, Chen, yes.
94
Okay, Chen.
95
Yes.
96
Okay.
97
Got it.
98
Then he pointed at me.
99
You have to correct people.
100
I know.
101
No, seriously, please correct us.
102
I will.
103
You promise?
104
I promise.
105
Five minutes later, Rachel walked over.
106
Hey, Emily, Sarah's looking for you.
107
Ben immediately said, before you go, we need to talk about Emily's name.
108
I nearly dropped my fork.
109
Ben, what?
110
I said I would correct people.
111
I did not say you should hold a press conference.
112
Rachel looked confused.
113
What happened?
114
I smiled awkwardly.
115
My last name is actually pronounced Chen.
116
Rachel blinked.
117
Then her eyes got very wide.
118
Oh no. That was not the reaction I was hoping for.
119
She said, I've been saying, Chen.
120
I know.
121
For weeks, I know.
122
Why didn't you tell me Ben pointed at her?
123
Exactly, I said.
124
I just didn't want to make it awkward.
125
Rachel laughed.
126
Emily, this is way more awkward.
127
She was right.
128
Then she smiled.
129
Okay, Chen.
130
Yes, Chen.
131
Perfect.
132
Thank you for telling me.
133
That surprised me.
134
Thank you for telling me.
135
She was not offended.
136
She was embarrassed for maybe five seconds.
137
Then she moved on.
138
She just wanted to say mine incorrectly.
139
Later that afternoon, Sarah sent me a message.
140
Do you have a minute?
141
I went to her office.
142
She smiled.
143
Ben told me I've been pronouncing your last name wrong.
144
Of course he did.
145
I said, yeah, it's Chen.
146
Sarah repeated it, Chen.
147
Exactly.
148
Then she said, I'm sorry, I wish you had corrected me earlier.
149
I didn't want to interrupt you.
150
Sarah looked surprised.
151
You can always correct me on your name.
152
I nodded.
153
I know that now.
154
She smiled.
155
Names matter.
156
Then she added, and for the record, if I ever pronounce someone's name wrong, I'd much rather they tell me.
157
That stayed with me, Because I had spent weeks imagining the correction would create some huge, uncomfortable moment.
158
But the actual correction took about three seconds.
159
The awkward part had been everything I did to avoid it.
160
The next morning, I joined another meeting.
161
There were about 20 people on the call.
162
Marcus was presenting.
163
Halfway through, he said.
164
I'm going to hand this over to Emily Chan.
165
My heart dropped.
166
Not again.
167
For one second, I almost let it go.
168
Then I remembered my promise to Ben.
169
I unmuted.
170
Thanks, Marcus and just a quick correction, my last name is pronounced Chen.
171
There was a tiny pause, Marcus said, Chen.
172
Got it, sorry about that, I smiled.
173
No worries, it happens all the time.
174
And that was it, no disaster, no long awkward silence.
175
We simply continued with the meeting afterward marcus sent me a
176
message thanks for correcting me i want to make sure i get people's names right
177
that was when i realized something i had been treating correction like criticism
178
but it wasn't i was simply giving someone the information they needed and usually one sentence is enough Actually, it's pronounced Chen.
179
Or in a meeting, just a quick correction.
180
It's pronounced Chen.
181
If you waited longer than you meant to, you can say, I should have mentioned this earlier, but it's pronounced Chen.
182
And if the other person feels embarrassed, no worries.
183
It happens all the time.
184
That's really all you need.
185
A few days later, a new employee joined our team.
186
Her name was Marisol.
187
Before the meeting, Ben looked at her name on the screen.
188
Then he looked at me.
189
Then he looked back at the screen.
190
I knew exactly what he was thinking.
191
When Marisol joined the call, Ben said, Hi, welcome.
192
And before I say your name wrong for three weeks, could you tell me how you pronounce it?
193
Marisol laughed.
194
She said her name.
195
Ben repeated it carefully.
196
She smiled.
197
Perfect.
198
Ben looked at me.
199
I'm learning.
200
I smiled.
201
Slowly.
202
I used to think correcting someone would make things awkward.
203
Now I think the opposite is true.
204
Most people do not want to keep saying your name wrong, they just do not know they are doing it.
205
So if someone mispronounces your name, you do not need to wait three weeks.
206
You definitely do not need to wait until half the office learns the wrong version.
207
You can simply smile and say, actually it's pronounced, then say your name.
208
And if you are the person who is not sure, you can ask, could you tell me how you pronounce your name?
209
Or I want to make sure I'm saying your name correctly.
210
A few seconds of awkwardness can save weeks of awkwardness later.
211
Trust me, I have experience.
212
A lot of experience.

القواعد في هذا الفيديو
أكثر التراكيب التي يستخدمها المتحدث، مع العبارات نفسها من الفيديو:
| التركيب | في الفيديو |
|---|---|
| المضارع التام المستمر have/has been + -ing — حدث بدأ سابقًا وما زال مستمرًا | Have I been calling · I've been saying · I've been pronouncing |
| الجمل الشرطية if + جملة، will/would + فعل — شرط ونتيجته | If I corrected them now, would they |
| المبني للمجهول be + اسم المفعول — التركيز على ما يحدث لا على من يفعله | is actually pronounced · was not offended · is pronounced |
| المضارع التام have/has + اسم المفعول — حدث ماضٍ ما زال له أثر الآن | has never led · have introduced |
نطق يحتاج إلى انتباه
يستخدم المتحدث 13 من الصيغ المختصرة، مثل I'm, didn't, I've. انطقها بصيغتها القصيرة كما تسمعها.
- أصوات “sh” و“zh”: correction /kəˈɹɛkʃən/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/
- الكلمات الطويلة — انتبه لموضع النبر: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, incorrectly /ˌɪnkəˈɹɛk(t).li/, coordinate /koʊˈɔɹ.dəˌneɪt/, genuinely /ˈd͡ʒɛn.ju.ɪn.li/, uncomfortable /ʌnˈkʌm.fɚ.tə.bl̩/
أصوات يجدها متحدثو العربية صعبة:
- /p/ — ليس /b/: انطقه مع نفخة هواء: pronounce /pɹəˈnaʊns/, mispronounce /ˌmɪspɹəˈnaʊns/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, interrupt /ˌɪntəˈɹʌpt/, pause /pɔːz/
- تتابع الصوامت — لا تضف حركة بينها: pronounce /pɹəˈnaʊns/, mispronounce /ˌmɪspɹəˈnaʊns/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, stare /stɛɚ/, embarrassed /ɪmˈbæɹ.əst/
كيف تتدرب بهذا الفيديو
- استمع إلى الفيديو كاملًا مرة واحدة دون أن تتكلم، ودوّن الكلمات التي لا تعرفها.
- ابدأ بسرعة 0.75×، وردّد جملة جملة، ثم عُد إلى السرعة العادية عندما يصبح الأمر سهلًا.
- سجّل صوتك وقارنه بالأصل، مع الانتباه إلى كلمات مثل correction, pronunciation, stare.
ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
