Hey y'all, Austin Kleon here.
2
Today I want to talk to you about a tool I cannot live without.
3
It's a Pentel Pocket Brush Pen.
4
And I've been using this for years.
5
And whenever I get sort of bombed out with my diary habit, I unleash what I call the magic of the brush here.
6
And I sort of wanted to show you how I use it in my diary.
7
So I'm gonna actually just do a diary entry today for you.
8
So These things are really.. these are so so magic.
9
So that the way that these brush pens work is they have a little
10
cartridge just like you'd have with a fountain pen.
11
They kind of look like this and then there's a like synthetic brush on the end of it.
12
And this thing, I think this is like 10 years old and it keeps a really nice point and
13
And one of the things I really like about working with the brush, I'm going to turn a light on here so you can make sure to see me well,
14
is it just gets this really nice kind of fun line.
15
Like if you press hard, you get big fat lines.
16
If you press really lightly, you get little skinny lines.
17
So you can have a lot of fun with this.
18
So when I get kind of bombed out, I just love the loose and playful nature of this.
19
And it's a Monday.
20
Sometimes I write the time.
21
But a lot of times when I start my diary, I don't really know what I'm going to write about for the day.
22
So often I'll just start drawing.
23
Like lately I've been drawing a lot of ghosts.
24
This brush is just so responsive.
25
Sometimes I'll just do a bunch of ghosts until I come up with an idea.
26
Just do-do-do-do-do.
27
I never have anything planned when I sit down with my diary.
28
I just kind of like sit down with it and just kind of let it go.
29
And this might be too messy for some people,
30
but for me there's just something really loose and freeing about the brush.
31
And this is something I learned from my hero Linda Barry, who you probably hear me talk a lot about.
32
But the big deal today is that my son Owen is turned nine years old. So, alright.
33
Owen is nine.
34
And I am feeling the feelings.
35
because it is true i am feeling the feelings today
36
and then sometimes i'll just do like there's something about you know miss linda tells us
37
that if you just kind of keep your
38
brush or your pen in motion new ideas come and
39
so i just have so much fun with this brush
40
and i don't worry about writing too much or anything like
41
that the other thing that miss linda tells us is that if you write really slowly, interesting things will come.
42
So I was somebody when I was younger, I thought free writing, you had to like write really fast and just let it all like kind of out.
43
But there's something about just going really really slowly like even
44
if you just start making an s sometimes the word will appear
45
that you need but I just you know if you just kind of concentrate on making the letters
46
and breathe in and do what Miss Linda tells us.
47
You just kind of slow down.
48
But there's just something magic about the rush.
49
There's something about slowing down and just letting things come
50
and I just I just love it it just it just really frees me up
51
so this Pentel brush pen
52
and you can do all kinds of things with this let
53
me let me find you like another entry sometimes I'll do
54
these kind of wild pages where I make like little comics
55
sometimes oh this is a drawing I'll copy a drawing from
56
my from my my six-year-old this is my idea for Muppets at Walden there's just there's a
57
but yeah I do a lot of my comics this way
58
so I heard my diaries this way
59
and I'll draw a lot of comics in there and and
60
and the words come along with them
61
but there's just something magic about the brush
62
so to tell you a little bit more about the pen like
63
so I have three of these bad boys
64
and I've never had any problems with them and they come with this little cartridge.
65
Now these cartridges do they sort of go away real quickly, like they get used up really fast.
66
So I was on YouTube the other day and I found out that if you buy a,
67
if you buy a blunt tip syringe, you can get these like anywhere really.
68
It's actually hard to buy them in person.
69
You just got to go online.
70
And a pot of ink.
71
You can actually refill these bad boys yourself.
72
So you literally just kind of like stick the...
73
Stick it in there like that.
74
And you want to use a syringe because there's nothing really this thin that will fit in these little cartridges.
75
Then you just stick the syringe in there.
76
And you can fill the cartridge back up.
77
I didn't get enough ink.
78
Just like that.
79
And then you have like a brand new cartridge
80
and then you can just unscrew the pen and just stick it right back in there.
81
And then any excess ink you just kind of squeeze back out.
82
The other really fun thing that I wanted to show you is that I discovered the other day
83
is if you have a syringe full of ink, check this out, it basically becomes a,
84
I don't know if this will work now, it becomes an airbrush.
85
So you can do these kind of crazy little ink effects here.
86
You got to be a little careful because it can get messy real quick.
87
So yeah, so I don't know when this turned into a craft channel, but anyway.
88
So the Pilot Pocket Brush Pen.
89
Love this thing.
90
and I'll put a link to it in my newsletter and below the video.
91
Anyway, happy writing and drawing and I hope this wasn't too dorky
92
and maybe it was a little bit of fun for you.
93
Bye!
FOR YOU

為什麼要通過這個影片練習口語？
在這段影片中，Austin Kleon分享了他與他的小筆刷筆的創作過程。這種日記寫作方式非常適合學習者練習口語，因為它不僅讓人放鬆，還可以激發創意。通過看YouTube學英語，您可以聽到自然且生動的表達，瞭解如何用英語將想法具象化。因而，雅思口語練習中，學習者能夠藉此積累豐富的表達方式，從而提升口語能力。
語法與語境中的表達
- 表達情感：他說“I am feeling the feelings” （我正在感受這些情感），這句話簡單而生動，有助於學習者在日常交流中表達情感時的靈活運用。
- 即時創作：這段影片中提到“just let it go”（就讓它去吧），這是一種鼓勵自由書寫的狀態，學習者在雅思口語練習中可以藉此理解如何從即興創作中激發流利表達的能力。
- 慢速書寫：Kleon提到“if you write really slowly, interesting things will come”（如果你寫得很慢，奇妙的事情會發生），這點對口語特別重要。在雅思口語中，慢慢組織語言能幫助提高表達質量。
常見發音陷阱
在影片中，Kleon使用了一些可能會給學習者帶來困惑的詞彙。例如，“responsive”（回應式），在不同地方的口音中可能會有不同的發音。此外，他的語調和節奏變化也體現了口語表達的自然流暢性。學習者在進行shadow speech（影子發聲）練習時，可以特別注意這種語音節奏，以便在學習中減少語音障礙，提升口語流利度。
總之，藉助這種輕鬆又富有創意的方式，通過影片中的內容進行雅思口語練習，將有助於學習者提高自我表達與理解能力，最終實現流利的英語交流。
什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
