Hey what’s up, Stefanie the English coach here from EnglishFullTime. com. Recently I got a message on Instagram from a woman who is saying she is really frustrated, because she can’t seem to build her vocabulary.
嗨,大师好,我是EnglishFullTime.com的Stefanie。近来我在Instragram上收到一名女性朋侪的动静,她很绝望,由于感觉本身底子记不住单词。
And in her native language she loves having deep conversations about all kind of things, her ideas, her beliefs, psychology, etc. But in English she feels like she can’t even have this conversations, because again she just doesn’t have the words.
用母语措辞的时辰,她很喜好一些深刻的交换,好比她的设法,她的信奉,生理学等等。可是在英语中她就底子无法聊这些工具,由于她单词量不可。
So in this video, I’m going to give you guys one of the most powerful ways to build your vocabulary. Now what am I talking about?
这期视频,我就会教给大师一些增长辞汇量的好法子。我说的是甚么呢?
I’m talking about
reading. It has been proven that people who read more tend to have bigger vocabularies than people who don’t read.
就是浏览。究竟证实,大量浏览的人要比不浏览的人有更大辞汇量。
And the more you read, the bigger your vocabulary. So this makes a lot of sense.
你读的越多,你的辞汇量越大。这个确切颇有事理。
When you are reading something, there are so many words right there and you are consuming all of them. And if you don’t understand what something means, you look it up in the dictionary, so that you can understand the idea of whatever it is you are reading.
你在念书进程中,会消化很是多单词。若是你碰着不懂的单词,你就必要查阅辞书,然后就领会到读的甚么意思。
And then the more you read the more, you encounter the same words over and over and over again until those words get stored in your long term memory. Remember, the first time that you see a word or the second, the third, even the tenth time the word doesn’t necessarily make it’s way to your long term memory.
你读的越多,你就会一遍一遍碰到一
样的单词,直到它贮存在你的持久影象里。要记着,你第一次碰到,第二次,第三次甚至第十次碰到这些单词,都不必定就可以彻底记着。
You have to see something and be exposed to it time and time again for you to be able to access that information just like that, OK? So the more you read, the more words you will add to your vocabulary.
你必要一遍一各处碰到它,如许才能记着它转达的信息。你读的越多,辞汇量就会越大。
Also another thing for you to think about is when writers are writing, the only thing that they have to co妹妹unicate their ideas is words on a paper. They can’t use their tone, they can’t use the volume of their voice, they can’t use body language, so they are limited. They are highly limited to that to just the words on a piece of paper.
另有此外一件事你要记着,那就是,作家在举行写作的时辰,他们可以或许表达本身思惟的手腕只有纸上的文字。他们不克不及用腔调、音量、肢体说话来表达,只能被限定在纸面上。
So they have to be very precise with their language. Every sentence is measured.
他们必要细心考虑本身的说话。每一个句子都是精雕细琢。
They can’t have unnecessary words there. They can’t have any words that are gonna confuse the reader.
文章里不克不及呈现空话。不克不及呈现可能让读者利诱的话。
The words have to be precise, so that they say exactly what they wanna say and how they wanna say it. The sentences have to be precise so that it builds the correct argument or expresses the idea accurately.
每一个句子都必需很是正确,作者必要精准的表达本身想要表达的意思。如许才能正确转达作者的论点或表白作者的设法。
Everything has to be logical about what they do, and the more you consume this type of language professional writing written either in books, novels, magazines, etc, the more you are going to subconsciously incorporate that into your own language skills. So again, reading is one of the most powerful ways to build your vocabulary.
作者写的内容必要合乎逻辑,以是说这类专业文字读的越多,不管是册本、小说、杂志,你就会在潜意识里学到这类说话技能。以是说,浏览是扩展辞汇量的最佳方法。
Now I have more that I wanna say about this, but before I do I just wanna introduce you guys to the sponsor of this video. I’m really excited to share this with you, because they can really help you improve your vocabulary through reading books that you enjoy.
我还想聊一些其他的内容,可是在此以前我先先容一下这个视频的援助商。很想跟你们分享它,由于这个利用真的能帮忙你经由过程浏览提高辞汇量。

Another reason why I like Blinkist so much is because it’s just so convenient. I wish I had more time to read but honestly I don’t.
我分享Blinkist的此外一个缘由就在于,它真的很便利。我但愿本身能有更多时候来浏览,可是说真话,真的没时候。
At the same time, though I’m trying to learn as much as possible because I believe that the more I learn the more successful I can be in the things that I do.

I really love this app you guys and I would not share it with you if I didn’t. And with that said, I just want to let you know that I have a big list of book reco妹妹endations from their app that I have already listen to and loved, but a few of them are Storyworthy which is about telling stories.
我真的很是喜好这个app,以是才分享给大师。说到这,我还想分享给你在这app上很是值得读的书,我已都听过了,好比说Stroryworthy,这是一本关于讲故事的书。
The Art Of Public Speaking I think everyone should read that one. Never Split the Difference which is about negotiations.
另有The Art Of Public Speaking,我感觉大师都应当读一下这本书。Never Split the Difference,这本书关于会商。
Essentialism which is about time managing, really great book. And then of course the book that I always reco妹妹end to everyone How to Win Friends & Influence people that is a must read.
Essentialism有关时候办理。另有一本书我感觉所有人也应当去读,那就是 How to Win Friends & Influence people。
So now lets talk a little about fiction versus non fiction. It’s been proven that people who read more fiction tend to have a bigger vocabulary than just people who read non fiction.
接下来咱们再聊一下关于小说和非小说类文学作品。究竟证实,读小说的人辞汇量要大于读非小说的人。
Now why is this? Because in fiction books, the author is much more descriptive.
为甚么呢?由于在小说内里,作者会更喜好描写工具。
They are describing scenes, they are describing events, they are describing dialog, it’s a story. So because of that fiction, in general has a much wider variety of words than non fiction.
他们会描写场景、事务、对话,讲述一个故事。由于是小说,以是用词要比非小说更加宽泛。
With that said, though if you are struggling to have conversations in English, I highly reco妹妹end that you start by reading lots of non fiction. Because in fiction, authors are sometimes so descriptive that sentences sound long and poetic, and the words that are used aren’t always the words that people use in everyday life.
不外若是你一时读不懂英文对话的话,我仍是建议你先读非小说内容。由于小说内里,作者有时辰会太喜好描写了,以是句子会变得很是长,很是富有诗意,而这类表达方法其实不是人们经常使用的。
And if you don’t know that and you start incorporating all of that into your speech you might sound a little bit awkward. So I reco妹妹end that you start with non fiction, read lots of non fiction about all the things you already know and enjoy and use in your native language.
若是你不晓得这点的话,颇有可能就会把不少这类单词放到本身说的话内里,听起来会怪怪的。以是我仍是举荐你从非小说起头,多读那些你本身用母语已很是领会的内容。
And then you can tell other people about what you’ve read. You can even start a book club if you want or talk to a friend talk to someone else who enjoys the same topics as you, and say “hey, recently I read this book about XYZ,” whatever it is and tell them what you’ve learned.
然后再转述给他人你读过的内容。乃至可以组建一个念书俱乐部,跟朋侪们聊一下你读的内容,奉告他们,“嘿,我今天读了这本书……”然后奉告他们你学到的工具。
Telling other people what you learned is one of the best ways to incorporate knowledge into you long term memory. If you just read it and consume it, that’s not as powerful as reading it, consuming it and then telling someone else about it or sharing it with someone else, OK?
给他人讲述你学到的工具是一种把常识转化成持久影象的最佳法子。若是你只是读了记着了,就不如你读了,记着了,然后奉告他人你学的内容。
Remember that. So when I read books I actually tell my husband Renzo, I say, “OK, I read a book today.”
要记着这点。我读完一本书我就会跟我丈夫Renzo说,“我今天读了一本书。”
“This is what I learned.” And I tell him the points that I thought were really interesting to me, because I know that by telling him and co妹妹unicating them I’m going over them again in my mind.
“这是我读到的内容。”然后我就会跟他分享我感觉颇有意思的内容,由于我晓得经由过程这类方法我可以或许再过一遍这些工具。
And I’m more likely to remember them and I don’t want to forget the stuff that I read, because a lot of it is really really powerful so sometimes I even read the same book more than once. Actually I do that now that I have the Blinkist app because before this I literally did not have time.
我想要记着我领会的工具,由于有不少内容确切很棒,有时辰我乃至会一本书读好几遍。如今我有了Blinkist,之前是真的没甚么时候。
And the idea of reading one book, I’m also kind of a slow reader. I just would avoid it completely but now that I know hey in 15 minutes I can have a book read.
并且念书方面,我真的读的很慢。之前我是爽性就不读了,可是如今,我15分钟便可以读一本书了。
I listen to books all the time which is good because I really am learning a lot. So it’s awesome.
我老是会没事儿就听一下,由于确切领会到不少工具。真的很棒。
OK, so that pretty much covers everything that I wanted to talk about but now I wanna hear from you. If you have any other ideas about why reading specifically is so powerful for building vocabulary anything aside from what I’ve already mentioned, please share it with us in the co妹妹ents.
