| 33 | You think you have to say this sound, | 你觉得你必须说这个声音, |
| 34 | but then it's a little bit different, | 但后来有点不同, |

| 111 | in why you have an accent in a foreign language | 你为何有外语口音 |
| 112 | is the age of language acquisition. | 是语言获取的年龄。 |

| 116 | To be honest, even in my previous videos, | 说实话,即使在我之前的视频中 |
| 117 | I mentioned multiple times that I don't think it's possible | 我多次提到,我觉得不可能 |

| 119 | But right now, I need to fact check myself again, | 但现在,我需要再检查一下自己 |
| 120 | because there are lots of studies that say that it's actually not true. | 因为很多研究都说这不是真的 |
| 121 | It all comes down to this guy named Eric Linenberg. | 都归罪于一个叫艾瑞克·莱南伯格的人 |
| 122 | He was a very smart person who studied how we learn languages | 他是个很聪明的人 他研究我们如何学习语言 |
| 123 | and how our brains work. | 和我们的大脑如何工作。 |
| 124 | And his main idea was that there is a time | 他的主要想法是,有时间 |
| 125 | when it's easier to learn a foreign language. | 当方便学外语. |
| 126 | And after a certain time, it becomes more difficult. | 过了一段时间,就更难了 |
| 127 | He believed that you can only learn two languages | 他认为你只能学两种语言 |
| 128 | to this level of fluency from when you're two years old | 从你两岁开始就流利到现在 |
| 129 | until you're a teenager. | 直到你还是个少年 |
| 130 | You know, when you become an adult, | 你知道,当你成为一个成年人, |
| 131 | it becomes practically impossible. | 这几乎是不可能的。 |
| 132 | This idea is connected to how our brains work. | 这个想法与我们的大脑如何工作有关。 |
| 133 | And it suggests that if you decide to learn | 它暗示如果你决定学习 |
| 134 | another language later in life, | 另一种语言在晚年, |
| 135 | your brain starts to treat your native language | 你的大脑开始治疗你的母语 |
| 136 | and this foreign language differently. | 而这种外语不同 |
| 137 | And that's why it takes more time. | 这就是为什么它需要更多的时间。 |
| 138 | While adults might struggle a little bit more | 虽然成年人可能会更挣扎 |
| 139 | when it comes to learning a foreign language | 在学习外语方面 |
| 140 | because their brains are less flexible, | 因为他们的大脑不太灵活, |
| 141 | it doesn't mean that it's impossible. | 这并不意味着这是不可能的。 |
| 142 | And there are numerous studies that suggest | 有很多研究显示 |
| 143 | that you can still reduce your accent | 你还可以减少你的口音 |
| 144 | or even eliminate your accent altogether as an adult | 甚至完全消除你的口音 作为一个成年人 |
| 145 | if you decide to learn a foreign language later in life. | 如果你决定以后再学外语的话 |
| 146 | So now let's move on to talking about if it's a bad thing | 所以,现在让我们继续谈论 如果这是坏事 |
| 147 | if you have an accent in a foreign language. | 如果你有外语口音。 |
| 148 | I have to say it immediately. | 我必须马上说 |
| 149 | It is not a bad thing if you have an accent. | 如果你有口音也不错 |
| 150 | I know many of you worry about it a lot, | 我知道你们很多人很担心 |

| 152 | if you have an accent in a foreign language. | 如果你有外语口音。 |
| 153 | Even though I have improved my pronunciation | 虽然我读音有所改进 |
| 154 | in English a lot, I still have an accent | 经常用英语,我还有口音 |
| 155 | and it's totally okay. | 这完全没关系。 |
| 156 | Accents是绝对自然的。 | |
| 157 | Again, it's because all those factors | 再说一遍,是因为所有这些因素 |
| 158 | that I mentioned above, | 我在上面提到, |
| 159 | because we have different sounds | 因为我们有不同的声音 |
| 160 | because we have less time, to be honest, | 说实话,因为我们的时间不多了 |
| 161 | to study this foreign language. | 学习这种外语。 |
| 162 | And that's why it's completely natural to have an accent | 这就是为什么有口音是完全自然的 |
| 163 | and a lot of people do. | 和很多人这样做。 |
| 164 | Accents can also reflect your cultural diversity. | Accents也可以反映你的文化多样性. |
| 165 | Every time I talk to a person and they hear my accent, | 每次我跟一个人说话 他们听到我的口音 |
| 166 | they want to ask me questions like, | 他们想问我一些问题, |
| 167 | Oh, Veronica, where are you from? | 哦,维罗妮卡,你来自哪里? |
| 168 | And that already shows that English is not my native language | 这已经表明英语不是我的母语 |
| 169 | and that I know more than one language, right? | 而且我知道不止一种语言,对不对? |
| 170 | Because my native language is Russian | 因为我的母语是俄语 |
| 171 | and I can also speak English. | 我也会说英语。 |
| 172 | And there's so many people in the world | 世界上有这么多人 |
| 173 | who would want to achieve that one day, | 将来要达到这个目的, |
| 174 | but they can only speak one foreign language. | 但他们只能说一种外语 |
| 175 | So again, having an accent is natural. | 再说一遍,口音很自然 |
| 176 | It can also reflect your cultural diversity | 也能反映你的文化多样性 |
| 177 | and you should always remember that communication is key. | 你应该记住沟通是关键 |
| 178 | If you feel like your accent is too strong | 如果你觉得你的口音太强 |
| 179 | and because of that, people actually don't understand you, | 也因为如此,人们不理解你 |
| 180 | then yes, of course, you have to work on your accent | 那当然了,你必须练练你的口音 |
| 181 | because when we're learning a language, | 因为当我们学习一种语言, |
| 182 | it's all about communication. | 都是为了沟通 |
| 183 | And that's why sometimes when I pronounce certain words | 这就是为什么有时当我发声 某些字 |
| 184 | in English, sometimes people are like, what? | 在英语中,有时人们喜欢,什么? |
| 185 | There's one word in English | 英文有个词 |
| 186 | that I really struggle with even today. | 我甚至今天都很难过 |

| 189 | I cannot make all of these sounds, you know? | 我不能让所有这些声音,你知道吗? |
| 190 | I cannot hit all of those moving targets | 我打不中所有移动目标 |
| 191 | because it's so difficult for me | 因为这对我来说太难了 |
| 192 | when I say the word quarter. | 当我说"硬币"的时候 |
| 193 | Quarter, quarter, quarter, quarter. | 四分之一,一个季度,一个季度,一个季度。 |
| 194 | And sometimes when I talk to a native speaker | 有时我跟一个本地人说话 |
| 195 | and I have to say this word, they're like, what? | 我不得不说,他们喜欢,什么? |
| 196 | What did you say? | 你说什么? |
| 197 | I'm like, okay, guys, sorry, | 我像,好吧,伙计们,对不起, |
| 198 | it's really hard for me to pronounce this word, | 我很难说出这个词 |
| 199 | but I'm trying. | 但我正在努力 |
| 200 | The reason why so many of us worry about having an accent | 我们这么多人担心有口音的原因 |
| 201 | is also probably because of perfectionism. | 也可能是因为完美主义 |
| 202 | But please remember that the downside of perfectionism | 但请记住完美主义的缺点 |
| 203 | is that you're so used to getting it right. | 是因为你习惯了做正确的事 |
| 204 | You completely collapse when you get it wrong. | 你完全崩溃 当你弄错了。 |
| 205 | And so every time I speak English, | 所以,每当我说英语, |
| 206 | if I mispronounce a word when I talk to a friend of mine, | 如果我在和朋友说话时发错话 |
| 207 | it's fine. | 没事的 |
| 208 | I don't wanna collapse if I get a word wrong. | 如果说错了,我不想崩溃 |
| 209 | It's not the end of the world. | 亦非灭度. |
| 210 | If they understand me, perfect. | 如果他们能理解我 完美 |

| 212 | I try to say this word over and over and over again. | 我试着一遍又一遍地说这个词 |
| 213 | I try to spell this word for them | 我试着拼这个词给他们听 |
| 214 | or maybe, you know, even write the word on my phone. | 或者,也许,你知道, 甚至写字在我的电话。 |
| 215 | Because again, the main idea is communication. | 因为同样,主要的想法是交流. |
| 216 | When I talk to people, I want to communicate with them. | 当我和别人说话,我想与他们沟通。 |
| 217 | And when I record these videos for you guys, | 当我为你们录制这些视频时 |
| 218 | I wanna encourage you and I wanna give you tools | 我想鼓励你,我想给你工具 |
| 219 | that can help you learn foreign languages successfully. | 帮助您成功学习外语。 |
| 220 | Can you reduce or eliminate your accent? | 你能减少或消除你的口音吗? |

| 236 | you can't say the word quarterly and it's fine. | 你不能说这个词的季度 和它的罚款。 |
| 237 | But you know, it's like this, your next goal, | 但你知道,这是这样的, 你的下一个目标, |
| 238 | is to be able to say this word and feel amazing | 就是能说出这个词 觉得很棒 |

| 22 | When we speak our native language, | 当我们说我们的母语, |
| 23 | we only try to hit the targets of our native language. | 我们只是试图打击 我们的母语的目标。 |

| 26 | Of course, sometimes we might make a mistake or two, | 当然,有时我们可能会犯错 |
| 27 | but it happens so rarely, | 但事情很少发生 |

| 29 | It's our native language after all. | 毕竟是我们的母语 |
| 30 | But now we decided to learn a new language. | 但现在我们决定学习一种新语言。 |

| 33 | You think you have to say this sound, | 你觉得你必须说这个声音, |
| 34 | but then it's a little bit different, | 但后来有点不同, |
| 35 | because maybe you confuse it with the sound in your native language. | 因为也许你把它和母语的声音混淆了 |

| 47 | that it takes you quite a lot of time to actually master them. | 需要很多时间才能真正掌握他们 |

| 52 | I struggled with these sounds for a very long time. | 我用这些声音挣扎了很久 |

| 57 | Like how do you even say this? | 你怎么这么说? |

| 59 | I would say I need to leave and I leave in Mexico, | 我要说,我需要离开 我离开在墨西哥, |
| 60 | which is wrong, | 这是错误的, |
| 61 | because these two words are pronounced differently. | 因为这两个词的发音不同. |
| 62 | So basically, I always went to this easy target, | 所以基本上,我总是去 这个容易的目标, |
| 63 | the target of the sound E, | E声的目标, |
| 64 | because it's very similar to the sound we have in Russian. | 因为它非常相似 我们的声音在俄语。 |

| 109 | The next factor that might play a role | 下一个可能发挥作用的因素 |

| 118 | But right now, I need to fact check myself again, | 但现在,我需要再检查一下自己 |
| 119 | because there are lots of studies | 因为有很多研究 |
| 120 | that say that it's actually not true. | 说这不是真的 |
| 121 | It all comes down to this guy named Eric Linenberg. | 都归罪于一个叫艾瑞克·莱南伯格的人 |
| 122 | He was a very smart person who studied how we learn languages | 他是个很聪明的人 他研究我们如何学习语言 |
| 123 | and how our brains work. | 和我们的大脑如何工作。 |
| 124 | And his main idea was that there is a time | 他的主要想法是,有时间 |
| 125 | when it's easier to learn a foreign language. | 当方便学外语. |
| 126 | And after a certain time, it becomes more difficult. | 过了一段时间,就更难了 |
| 127 | He believed that you can only learn two languages | 他认为你只能学两种语言 |
| 128 | to this level of fluency | 达到这一流畅程度 |
| 129 | from when you're two years old until you're a teenager. | 从你两岁开始,直到你少年。 |
| 130 | You know, when you become an adult, | 你知道,当你成为一个成年人, |
| 131 | it becomes practically impossible. | 这几乎是不可能的。 |
| 132 | This idea is connected to how our brains work. | 这个想法与我们的大脑如何工作有关。 |
| 133 | And it suggests that if you decide to learn | 它暗示如果你决定学习 |
| 134 | another language later in life, | 另一种语言在晚年, |
| 135 | your brain starts to treat your native language | 你的大脑开始治疗你的母语 |
| 136 | and this foreign language differently. | 而这种外语不同 |

| 138 | While adults might struggle a little bit more | 虽然成年人可能会更挣扎 |
| 139 | when it comes to learning a foreign language | 在学习外语方面 |
| 140 | because their brains are less flexible, | 因为他们的大脑不太灵活, |
| 141 | it doesn't mean that it's impossible. | 这并不意味着这是不可能的。 |
| 142 | And there are numerous studies that suggest | 有很多研究显示 |
| 143 | that you can still reduce your accent | 你还可以减少你的口音 |
| 144 | or even eliminate your accent altogether as an adult | 甚至完全消除你的口音 作为一个成年人 |
| 145 | if you decide to learn a foreign language later in life. | 如果你决定以后再学外语的话 |
| 146 | So now let's move on to talking about if it's a bad thing | 所以,现在让我们继续谈论 如果这是坏事 |
| 147 | if you have an accent in a foreign language. | 如果你有外语口音。 |
| 148 | I have to say it immediately. | 我必须马上说 |
| 149 | It is not a bad thing if you have an accent. | 如果你有口音也不错 |

| 154 | I still have an accent and it's totally okay. | 我还有口音,没事 |
| 155 | Accents是绝对自然的。 | |
| 156 | Again, it's because all those factors that I mentioned above, | 再说一遍,因为我在上面提到的所有这些因素, |
| 157 | because we have different sounds | 因为我们有不同的声音 |
| 158 | because we have less time, to be honest, | 说实话,因为我们的时间不多了 |
| 159 | to study this foreign language. | 学习这种外语。 |
| 160 | And that's why it's completely natural to have an accent | 这就是为什么有口音是完全自然的 |
| 161 | and a lot of people do. | 和很多人这样做。 |
| 162 | Accents can also reflect your cultural diversity. | Accents也可以反映你的文化多样性. |
| 163 | Every time I talk to a person and they hear my accent, | 每次我跟一个人说话 他们听到我的口音 |
| 164 | they want to ask me questions like, | 他们想问我一些问题, |
| 165 | Oh, Veronica, where are you from? | 哦,维罗妮卡,你来自哪里? |
| 166 | And that already shows that English is not my native language | 这已经表明英语不是我的母语 |
| 167 | and that I know more than one language, right? | 而且我知道不止一种语言,对不对? |
| 168 | Because my native language is Russian | 因为我的母语是俄语 |
| 169 | and I can also speak English. | 我也会说英语。 |
| 170 | And there's so many people in the world | 世界上有这么多人 |
| 171 | who would want to achieve that one day, | 将来要达到这个目的, |
| 172 | but they can only speak one foreign language. | 但他们只能说一种外语 |
| 173 | So again, having an accent is natural. | 再说一遍,口音很自然 |
| 174 | It can also reflect your cultural diversity. | 这也能够反映你们的文化多样性。 |
| 175 | And you should always remember that communication is key. | 你应该记住沟通是关键 |
| 176 | If you feel like your accent is too strong | 如果你觉得你的口音太强 |
| 177 | and because of that, people actually don't understand you, | 也因为如此,人们不理解你 |
| 178 | then yes, of course, you have to work on your accent | 那当然了,你必须练练你的口音 |
| 179 | because when we're learning a language, | 因为当我们学习一种语言, |
| 180 | it's all about communication. | 都是为了沟通 |
| 181 | And that's why sometimes | 这就是为什么有时 |
| 182 | when I pronounce certain words in English, | 当我用英语念出某些词 |
| 183 | sometimes people are like, what? | 有时人们喜欢,什么? |

| 188 | I cannot make all of these sounds, you know? | 我不能让所有这些声音,你知道吗? |
| 189 | I cannot hit all of those moving targets | 我打不中所有移动目标 |
| 190 | because it's so difficult for me | 因为这对我来说太难了 |
| 191 | when I say the word quarter. | 当我说"硬币"的时候 |
| 192 | Quarter, quarter, quarter, quarter. | 四分之一,一个季度,一个季度,一个季度。 |
| 193 | And sometimes when I talk to a native speaker | 有时我跟一个本地人说话 |
| 194 | and I have to say this word, they're like, what? | 我不得不说,他们喜欢,什么? |
| 195 | What did you say? | 你说什么? |
| 196 | I'm like, okay, guys, sorry, | 我像,好吧,伙计们,对不起, |
| 197 | it's really hard for me to pronounce this word, | 我很难说出这个词 |
| 198 | but I'm trying. | 但我正在努力 |
| 199 | The reason why so many of us worry about having an accent | 我们这么多人担心有口音的原因 |
| 200 | is also probably because of perfectionism. | 也可能是因为完美主义 |
| 201 | But please remember that the downside of perfectionism | 但请记住完美主义的缺点 |
| 202 | is that you're so used to getting it right. | 是因为你习惯了做正确的事 |
| 203 | You completely collapse when you get it wrong. | 你完全崩溃 当你弄错了。 |
| 204 | And so every time I speak English, | 所以,每当我说英语, |
| 205 | if I mispronounce a word when I talk to a friend of mine, | 如果我在和朋友说话时发错话 |
| 206 | it's fine. | 没事的 |
| 207 | I don't wanna collapse if I get a word wrong. | 如果说错了,我不想崩溃 |
| 208 | It's not the end of the world. | 亦非灭度. |
| 209 | If they understand me, perfect. | 如果他们能理解我 完美 |

| 211 | I try to say this word over and over and over again. | 我试着一遍又一遍地说这个词 |
| 212 | I try to spell this word for them | 我试着拼这个词给他们听 |
| 213 | or maybe, you know, even write the word on my phone. | 或者,也许,你知道, 甚至写字在我的电话。 |
| 214 | Because again, the main idea is communication. | 因为同样,主要的想法是交流. |
| 215 | When I talk to people, I want to communicate with them. | 当我和别人说话,我想与他们沟通。 |
| 216 | And when I record these videos for you guys, | 当我为你们录制这些视频时 |
| 217 | I wanna encourage you and I wanna give you tools | 我想鼓励你,我想给你工具 |
| 218 | that can help you learn foreign languages successfully. | 帮助您成功学习外语。 |
| 219 | Can you reduce or eliminate your accent? | 你能减少或消除你的口音吗? |

| 235 | you can't say the word quarterly and it's fine. | 你不能说这个词的季度 和它的罚款。 |
| 236 | But you know, it's like this, your next goal, | 但你知道,这是这样的, 你的下一个目标, |
| 237 | is to be able to say this word and feel amazing | 就是能说出这个词 觉得很棒 |
