Not an English class

这不是英文课。This isn't an English class.

  • 你不需要知道 baggage 是不可数名词。You don't need to know that “baggage” is uncountable.
  • 你只需要知道 Baggage Claim 的箭头要跟着走。You need to know to follow the arrow that says Baggage Claim.
  • 房东讲 30 秒没关系,先抓 lease、deposit、utilities。The landlord can talk for thirty seconds. Catch lease, deposit, utilities.
  • 先求看得懂,再求讲得漂亮。Understand first. Sound good later.

一般英文课的第一课Lesson 1 in most English classes

  • Apple
  • Dog
  • My name is…
  • Present tense

这里的第一课Lesson 1 here

  • Baggage Claim
  • Security Deposit
  • Prescription
  • “Can you say that again?”

听不懂不是水平问题。是这些单词,课本没教过。Not understanding isn't about your level. These words just weren't in the textbook.

每个单词,走四步。Every word, four steps.

用 Security Deposit 这个词走一次给你看。Here's the word Security Deposit, start to finish.

  1. 1 / 4认得Recognize

    看到这个英文,我知道它大概是什么。I see it, and I know roughly what it is.

    Security Deposit = 押金

  2. 2 / 4听懂Understand

    对方讲一整句,我抓得到关键词。They say a whole sentence. I catch the keyword.

    “The security deposit is one month's rent.”

    security deposit → 押金 one month's rent → 一个月房租

  3. 3 / 4开口Say

    不用讲得完美,我有一句最简单的可以说。It doesn't have to be perfect. I have one simple line.

    “How much is the security deposit?”

    押金是多少?

  4. 4 / 4实战Survive

    真的遇到了,我知道现在发生什么。When it really happens, I know what's going on.

    你在看一间公寓,房东站在客厅跟你说明费用。

    押金是一个月的房租 ✓
