hey guys welcome back to my channel
2
when you speak a native language you don't consciously think about grammar vocabulary
3
or sentence structures right you can just speak fluently
4
and spontaneously this is because you are so familiar with language structure
5
and it has become your second nature many of us want to cultivate
6
that same effortless mindset when speaking english and start thinking in english instead of translating from our mother tongue In today's video,
7
I will share my thoughts on developing English thinking and give you guys some suggestions to achieve that natural flow of speaking.
8
First, I think it's quite normal for us to translate from Chinese to English when speaking.
9
I believe it is a natural process for everybody learning English as a second language
10
because when you are so fluent in your native source language, it will inevitably influence your new language learning the longer you
11
have immersed in the source language environment the bigger the impact is
12
so don't be anxious establish english thinking in a noun english
13
environment is not easy try following my tips in this video and see
14
if you can get some inspiration although it's difficult to reach
15
native level proficiency in a second language we can try to learn common fixed expressions
16
or chunks in order to speak more naturally and understand native speakers better when listening.
17
A chunk is a string of words that we can find in our memory as a ready-made unit.
18
It's just like a toolbox that is already put up together
19
and can be used anytime you want instead of some separated accessories.
20
In Chinese, we also have chunks.
21
Most apparently those four character words that you can't really break down word by word but they make meanings as a whole.
22
Well, English has similar chunks or collocations that can be best learned as a unit.
23
Chunks we're familiar with include phrases like on the one hand, on the other hand, one thing is,
24
or even some filler words you By category, there are several types of chunks in English,
25
namely sentence stutters, collocations, verb patterns, and some idioms.
26
Sentence stutters include I like the way, the thing is, like what you said.
27
Collocations refers to some fixed phrasal patterns such as daily reading, by average.
28
Learning chunks rather than individual words help you reduce differences and pauses in speaking.
29
and you will be able to speak faster because chunks help you anticipate
30
which word comes after the other and speak out naturally.
31
Also, it can help you better understand in listening as you can anticipate what's coming next.
32
You don't have to completely stop translating your head.
33
That's an inevitable part of second language acquisition.
34
The goal is to expand your repertoire of ready-made chunks that you can use effortlessly.
35
After figuring out a chunk, put it in a context to see how it's used in real conversation or speeches.
36
For example, like what you said, this phrase.
37
Yes, yes, I love that rule.
38
And I also liked what you said, you know, it's not adding something onto your already.
39
I think, you know, for most of us, being real, like what you said, and just saying, hey, I'm actually having a tough day.
40
I feel like what you said earlier about speaking straight, not patting things with a log of sugar, it really resonated with me.
41
Okay, so this phrase refers to something has been talked by the another speaker before, and you'd like to show agreement on that point.
42
Now we know it can be used as a chunk and followed by about, like what you said about, plus a topic, or give your own comments first
43
and plus like what you said to show you take the same stand with the speaker.
44
For vocabulary, try to memorize common collocations instead of just single words.
45
Like I said before, you have the same stand, the word stand.
46
Rather than purely memorizing its meaning and attitude towards a particular issue or position taken in your argument, you can directly memorize the collocations,
47
take a stand or a top stand.
48
This gives you more natural sounding language when next time you want to express the meaning.
49
Another way to start thinking in English is to use English or English only resources from the beginning,
50
instead of constantly translating back and forth.
51
So what does it mean?
52
First, stop using a english chinese dictionary use a english explanation to understand new words or concepts
53
which can help you learn words by thinking english instead of
54
simply transfer it into a mother tongue sure it's convenient but it's not helpful in giving yourself a language environment
55
so secondly practice english mini speeches and prepare it by drafting a english mic map
56
this makes you conceptualize your ideas in english it can also make you more confident and natural when start speaking.
57
So when practicing, don't get frustrated if you still catch yourself translating in your head.
58
That's just a normal part of the process.
59
The goal is to create more and more opportunities to immerse yourself in English and develop that chunk-based mindset.
60
Over time, this will significantly boost your fluency.

为什么说英语时总忍不住翻译?

很多人学英语时都会遇到这样的情况:想说一句话,先在脑子里用中文组织好,再逐词翻译成英语,结果说出来磕磕巴巴。其实这是很正常的过程——我们的母语太熟练,自然会影响新语言的学习。但视频里提到,想要流利表达,关键是培养“英语思维”,而不是完全摆脱翻译,而是用更高效的方式积累语言素材。

必学的英语“语块”和搭配

视频里说,英语中有很多“语块”(chunks),就像中文的成语一样,是现成的表达单元,能帮你减少停顿、说得更自然。以下是几个实用例子:

  • like what you said:表示“正如你所说”,后面可接话题或观点,比如“I feel like what you said about honesty is true”。
  • take a stand:意思是“表明立场”,比单独记“stand”更实用,比如“We need to take a stand on this issue”。
  • on the one hand... on the other hand:用来引出不同观点,是议论文的常用结构。
  • daily reading:“日常阅读”的固定搭配,比“every day reading”更自然。

记住这些语块,下次表达时不用再逐词翻译,直接调取即可,发音也会更流畅。

现在就做:影子跟读挑战

想要快速提高英语发音和流利度,“影子跟读”(shadow speech)是个好方法。试试这个简单任务:找到视频里包含“like what you said”的片段(比如“and I also liked what you said, you know...”),播放一遍后暂停,然后立刻跟着录音重复,尽量模仿语气和节奏。重复3次后,用这个语块造一个自己的句子,比如“Like what you said, practice is more important than theory”。

通过这种“英语影子跟读”练习,你能逐渐习惯英语的语速和语调,减少翻译的时间。平时看视频学英语时,也可以多留意这样的语块,边看边跟读,慢慢就能像说母语一样自然了。

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
