Jacob Nielsen's second usability heuristic says to match between the system and the real world.
2
That means the system should speak the user's language with words,
3
phrases, and concepts familiar to the user rather than system -oriented terms.
4
Additionally, the system should follow real -world conventions, making sure that information appears in a logical order.
5
Let's discuss each of those components a bit more.
6
The system should speak the user's language.
7
Too often, I see the use of marketing jargon instead of direct, plain language to describe features or web components.
8
So let's say we're redesigning an intranet and need to name a section that houses contact information for employees.
9
Maybe we're looking at two proposed names, meet and greet or staff directory.
10
Well, meet and greet might sound trendy, but it requires the user to make a lot of inferences.
11
You might think, is that work events?
12
Maybe calendar invites?
13
Using the more direct label of staff directory results in a stronger information scent
14
because many users will recognize the term directory as a place to find contact information.
15
In addition to speaking the user's language, we should also follow real -world conventions.
16
Here, it's important to point out
17
that people's mental models of technology are based on their previous
18
digital experiences in addition to their prior experiences in the physical realm.
19
Now, we can't talk about the second usability heuristic without mentioning skeuomorphic design.
20
Skeomorphic web design entails designing digital experiences to match a physical experience, both in visual and interaction.
21
For example, books.
22
In physical books, we can turn pages, highlight text, or use a bookmark.
23
Looking at a digital book in the Kindle app, we can highlight text by pressing and holding a word, turn pages with a swipe gesture,
24
or place a bookmark by tapping the page, clicking the bookmark icon in the top right.
25
The digital experiences of reading a book is closely aligned to the physical experience.
26
Effectively following the second usability heuristic means speaking the user's language and following real -world conventions.
27
If you're not doing both, users might portray your interface in a negative light, as if you don't really know them or you just don't care.
28
At the end of the day, get out and observe real users.
29
Test your prototypes.
30
And remember to design for them and not for you.
31
Thank you.

需要注意的发音
说话人用了 6 次缩略和弱读形式,例如 don't, we're, can't。请按听到的简短形式来说。
- 长单词——注意重音位置: directory /dɪˈɹɛktəɹi/, interaction /ˌɪn.təˈɹæk.ʃən/, usability /ˌjuːzəˈbɪlɪti/, skeuomorphic /skjuːəˈmɔːfɪk/
中文母语者容易读错的音:
- /v/ — 不要读成 /w/,上齿轻触下唇: invite /ɪnˈvaɪt/, observe /əbˈzɜːv/
- 词尾辅音 — 要读清楚,后面不要加元音: component /kəmˈpoʊ.nənt/, highlight /ˈhaɪˌlaɪt/, greet /ɡɹiːt/, invite /ɪnˈvaɪt/, phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/
- /æ/ — 嘴张大,不要读成 /e/: calendar /ˈkæl.ən.də/, interaction /ˌɪn.təˈɹæk.ʃən/
如何用这段视频练习
- 先完整听一遍视频,不要开口,记下不认识的单词。
- 用正常速度逐句跟读,每句重复到你的节奏与说话人一致为止。
- 录下自己的声音并与原声对比,特别注意 directory, component, highlight 这类单词。
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。
