Hello! I’m E妹妹a from 妹妹mEnglish!
In this lesson, we’re going to talk about American English and British English.
大师好，我是E妹妹a，接待大师来到E妹妹a的甘旨英语！
在本节课程中，咱们将要会商美式英语和英式英语。
Do you need to know the difference? Which one is right?
你必要晓得此中的区分吗？哪种是符合的呢？
Which one should you use? And which one do I use?
你应当利用哪种呢？我利用的是哪种呢？
These are all questions that I get asked all the time by my students!
And in this video I’m going to answer them for you.
我的学生老是会问我这些问题！在这个视频中，我将会为大师逐一解答。
So the first question.
Do you need to know the difference between American English and British English?
起首是第一个问题。你必要晓得美式英语和英式英语的区分吗？
Well, you need to know that there are differences.
There are a few different spelling rules, gra妹妹ar rules and of course, there’s different accents and vocabulary.
你必要晓得此中是存在区此外。
有一些分歧的拼写法则、语律例则，固然另有分歧的口音和辞汇。
You need to know that there are those differences but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you need to study and learn them.
The truth is that all English speakers understand each other, despite the differences in their English.
你必要晓得存在这些差别，可是那其实不象征着你必定必要进修这些法则。
究竟是，所有说英语的人都可以或许相互理解，虽然他们的英语存在着差别。
We watch each other’s movies, we read each other’s books, we work with each other, we read each other’s news.
So we’re often exposed to the different words and spellings that other English speakers use, which brings me to the next question.
咱们会看对方的片子，咱们会读对方的书，咱们会一块儿事情，咱们会浏览对方的消息。
以是咱们常常会接触到其他说英语的人，利用分歧的单词和拼写，这就触及到了咱们下一个问题。
Should you care about the differences between American English and British English? Maybe.
那就是咱们应当关切英式英语和美式英语之间的区分吗？可能吧。
It depends on why you’re learning English.
You only need to care about the differences if you’re studying for an English exam, you’re applying for or attending an English university or you’re using English professionally for your job.
这取决于你为甚么进修英语。
你要关切的是你正在举行英语测验、正在申请、或是顿时要去说英语的黉舍进修，或是你的事情场所用获得的职业英语所触及的那些差别。
Usually, in these situations, you need to pay attention to the spelling and the gra妹妹ar rules because it can affect your score or even affect your reputation.
So if this sounds like you, then you definitely do need to think about whether British English or American English is the right choice for you.
凡是在这些环境中，你必要注重拼写和语律例则，由于它可以或许影响你的得分，乃至是影响到你的名声。
若是你的环境就是如许的话，那你是真的很是必要思虑英式英语和美式英语，哪一个对你而言才是准
确的选择。
So which one is right? Which one should you use?
哪一个才是准确的呢？你应当利用哪种呢？
Its a hard question for me to answer. You need to think about you and your situation.
这个问题我真的很难答复呢。你必要基于本身，斟酌你本身的环境。
Are you living in an English-speaking country?
Then, of course, use the type of English that is used there.
你栖身在说英语的国度吗？
那末固然要利用你的栖身地所利用的那种英语。
But maybe you’re planning to study in an English-speaking country. Which one?
可是可能你正在规划去说英语的国度进修。哪个国度呢？
If it’s America, then you should be training to learn American English.
But if not, then focus on British English because most other English-speaking countries use British English gra妹妹ar and spelling standards.
若是是美国的话，那你应当进修美式英语。
可是若是不是的话，那末就专攻英式英语吧，@由%3HXt1%于大大%7e315%都@其他的说英语国度都利用英式英语语法和拼写尺度。
Do you speak to a lot of clients or colleagues who are from America or from the UK?
This can help you to decide whether you need to study American English or British English.
你必要沟通的客户或同事是美国
人仍是英国人呢？
这可以或许帮忙你决议你必要进修英式英语仍是美式英语。
You might think that one type of English is easier than the other and that can also tell you which one you should study.
You could choose any of these reasons to help you decide which type of English to study.
你可能感觉此中一种可能比此外一种简略，那也可以或许奉告你你应当进修哪种。
你可以从这些缘由中举行选择，帮忙你决议你应当进修哪一种英语。
It definitely makes sense to focus on lessons, books and teachers that use one type of English.
It just makes it a little less confusing while you’re learning.
专注于利用统一种类型英语的课程、册本和讲课教员固然是很是有效的。
这会让你的进修进程没有那末使人狐疑。
So focus on either British or American English but remember that the other one exists.
You don’t have to choose one and then never, ever, ever use the other.
以是专攻英式英语或美式英语，可是要记着确切有一种英语的存在。
你没需要选择了一种今后就不再利用此外一种了。
In fact, that’s almost impossible! And also one is not more important than the other.
究竟上，那是根基不成能的！并且两者之间没有孰轻孰重的不同。
But for you, there is probably one that is more relevant to your situation. And that’s the one that you should focus on that you should study.
可是对你而言，可能有一种会和你本身的环境比力贴合。那就是你应当专攻的那一种。
Another question that I often get asked is “What type of English do I use?”
Well, I’m Australian and here in Australia, we follow British English rules for spelling and gra妹妹ar.
我常常被问到的此外一个问题就是——我利用的是甚么类型的英语？
我是澳大利亚人，如今栖身在澳大利亚，咱们会遵守英式英语的拼写和语法。
And that’s actually true for most English-speaking countries outside of America.
Of course, all English-speaking countries have some unique vocabulary and slang so there will be different words that you come across that are used for the same thing.
除美国以外的其他英语国度根基上都是如许的。
固然了，所有的英语国度都有一些各具特点的辞汇和俚语，以是你会碰到分歧的单词来描写统一个事物。
Now if you want some examples of that then check out this video right here.
Finally, it’s important for you to know that there are some native English speakers who get very protective about their language and they will argue about which way is right and which way is wrong.
若是你想看一些例子的话，可以检察这边的视频。
最后，你要晓得有一些英语母语者对付本身的母语很是“爱惜有加”，他们常常会争辩哪一种是准确的，哪一种是毛病的。
But most of you, you don’t need to worry about this conversation and these arguments and discussions about whose English is better or whose English is right or wrong.
What’s important for you, is that you keep building your English skills and you practise co妹妹unicating clearly and confidently.
可是你们当中的大大都人其实不必要担忧这些关于谁的英语更好，谁的英语是准确的雷同争辩。
对你们而言，首要的是不竭加强本身的英语技术，不竭操练加倍清楚自傲的交换技能。
Accept that there are different types of English and that’s no reason to get stressed or anxious.
It just is how it is.
接管世界上有分歧类型英语的这个究竟，没需要感触压力或发急。
事变自己就是如许的。
The most important thing is that you focus on co妹妹unicating your ideas and your feelings clearly in English.
But I do think that it’s important to know what the differences between British and American English are so that you know how to recognise them.
最首要的是你们要专注于用英文清楚自若地交换你们的概念和感觉。
可是我觉得悉道英式英语和美式英语之间的区分仍是挺首要的，如许你们就晓得怎样举行辨认了。
