【乾,我講英文有夠乾】: 看完「魷魚遊戲」只講得出 It’s great. 嗎?
大家也看了魷魚遊戲了嗎?很多紐約的 #美國朋友 跟我說
・It’s way better than the Hunger Games.
・I binged the whole 9 episodes (一次追了九集).
・It’s graphically brutal. (超級血腥殘忍)
・Totes worth a watch. (Totes 是 totally 的口語寫法)
但當我問問身邊的人會怎樣用英文聊這部劇時,台灣人的對這部影集的描述常常是:
・It’s really good.
・I liked it!
・You should watch it.
・I highly recommend it.
當然,這 4 句話在語意上、用法上沒有問題。但如果你想要用得更 #道地、#到位,請繼續讀下去。
1️⃣ 傳統無啥用的 solution:
面臨這樣的問題,傳統上不少英文老師會建議你去查閱同義字字典,去 #升級自己會的形容詞。但,其實不斷用 It’s adj. 的方式
或去升級 “like” 這個動詞,調成 I enjoyed watching it. 只是繼續圍繞在相似的想法裡頭,英文還是 #沒有質的變化。�
2️⃣ 從「#思維模板」、母語人士的「#說話習慣」下手:
其實不管是魷魚遊戲、還是 The Hunger Games、還是其他相似種類 (genre) 的電影,英美國人會講述的方式「大同小異」,並 #不會因人而異。這樣的好處就是我們有個範圍可以學習這些「思維模板」。不只是一兩個字的片語、搭配詞,而是整體「表達的方向」。
例如:
✔︎ 在表達從第一集就ㄉㄧㄠˊ住時,你可以說:�
I was hooked from the first episode.
It had me hooked from the start.
✔︎ 在表達很棒時,他們不會只說 It’s great. 他們會說
It's hands down one of the best series I’ve seen on Netflix.
One of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time.
✔︎ 其他正向表述、讚揚的講法還包含:
It’s worth a watch for sure! (值得一看)
It has set a high bar for other movies of this genre. (把標準提得很高)
It has definitely lived up to the hype! (真的如大家所說般地好 )
之所以為思維模板,就是母語人士ㄧ要描述電影觀後感時,
#幾乎都會馬上想到這些用法。我們不應該再走「中文想這樣講 — > 翻成英文」這樣的路。
記得,英文要學好不是要變成「逐字翻譯大師」。要從慣用思維、表達習慣下手。

Guess who managed to make it into the cast of this year’s Junior Production?
Yep, that’s right, I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to act in the Junior Production again - Alhamdulillah! I kicked last week off with my Junior Production audition - something I had admittedly been rather nervous about for the past few weeks. But when it finally came to it, the audition went much better than all of the various catastrophic situations I had imagined and worried about in my head! In fact, the audition was quite fun to take part in, and we got a taster of what the production was like as well. And now, I’m glad to see that all the hard work has paid off - I’m excited to be part of another school production once more!
Previously, I’ve been involved in the Junior Production every year (excluding last year, thanks to good ol’ Covid). In my first year at KES, I acted in the school’s production of ‘Around The World In 80 Days’ - I was cast as the Parsee, the Indian merchant who owned an elephant and helped an Englishman travel safely across India. The following year, I was cast in the school’s adaptation of Peter Pan, this time as a grumpy park keeper who turned out to be part of the band of pirates in Neverland. It’s an honour to be part of something so wonderful this year as well - I’ll be telling you all more about my more demanding role in the coming days!
Auf Wiedersehen,
O. Mukhtar O. Mukhlis

【LifeinTaiwan is looking for an intern】
Hello everyone,
I love being a Youtuber. I love the freedom it gives me and appreciate the connection it gives me to my ever-so-supportive audience. I began the channel 4 years ago and never imagined it would be more than a small hobby or side project that I would do in my spare time in order to allow my son in South Africa, William, to watch his Daddy sharing his Life in Taiwan with him and anyone else who wants to watch.
I have been so blessed that although the channel and myself have had some ups and downs over the years, the channel has grown to a size where I feel that I am now able to offer somebody the opportunity to join me and share the journey I am taking through the Youtube world. For 4 years, over countless hours I have created 300 videos and grown to the channel to a quarter of a million subscribers all by myself. Video conception, writing, planning, producing, filming, editing, subtitling and re-editing have all been done by myself with the occasional welcome assistance from friends who have stepped in when I have required help. Thank you to everyone who has helped me get to this point.
However, it has recently become apparent that I need help. The constant strive for ideas and pressure to create interesting, watchable videos has pushed me to the limit of what one person can do in order to provide the best content for the viewers here in Taiwan and around the world. This is in addition to the fact that as a foreigner in Taiwan, I often find myself needing the help of a Taiwanese person to prevent making some basic mistakes that would otherwise go unnoticed.
Therefore, in order to show you a higher level of content and better quality videos, I have decided to invite an intern to join me! 💪
What kind of person am I looking for?
- Those who are interested in marketing, film creativity, script writing and filming. Students studying in these fields are also welcome.
- Those who usually watch youtube videos and understand the Youtube space
- Those who have lived or studied overseas or have cross-cultural experience are preferred
- Those able to communicate fluently in English
- Those who want to know more about the YouTube space and accumulate experience in the social media field
- Somebody who wants to learn more about the video creation process and develop their skills in video production
- Somebody in Taichung City
What do I need help with?
- Assistance in planning videos for Youtube
- Advice and opinions on video topics
- Help with writing video scripts
- Assist in filming and production.
What am I offering?
- Salary: Part time salary is negotiable
- Bonus: Video view targets will earn bonus pay
- Working time: 10-15 hours per week
- Flexible schedule if I find the perfect person
Please send a CV and a motivation letter to the address below.
Subject Line: Lifeintaiwan Intern
Applications without CV & Motivation Letter cannot be processed.

The second collaboration piece with @呉竹Kuretake , this time painted using their Kuretake Gansai Tambi 48 "顔彩耽美" colors set! This was an exciting challenge to try - I want to get better at painting trees and especially thick forest-like scenes like this one. This picture had only really light underdrawing and no lines.
Tools:
- Kuretake Gansai Tambi 48 "顔彩耽美" colors set.
- Waterford White 300g/m cold pressed paper.
This is also my entry to the #worldwatercolormonth2021 ! I will not be doing all the prompts, but let's say that this piece is for the "breathe" prompt.
We were recently able to go to a Japanese garden that's located really close to our house. It was temporarily closed due to the pandemic, but it opened when the stricter rules were lifted (now, if you want to go, you have to reserve a ticket - this prevents crowds.) On the day we went, it rained a lot in the morning - we had an excellent storm for the first time this summer - so the green of the plants was intensive! I took a lot of photos and tried my best to recreate this humid and green atmosphere.
Thanks to Kuretake for sending me these awesome tools to play with 👍
=== Gansai Tambi lightfastness
GANSAI TAMBI MC20/48V、WM-21/MC6V
⇒Blue scale: Grade 4 or higher
However, red colors such as 034 ROSE MADDER and 014 CHERRY BLOSSOM PINK, and light colors such as 013 LILAC and 012 ROSE BEIGE are equivalent to or lower than blue scale grade 3.

Hello everybody! WELCOME BACK TO MY CHANNEL MSKUAN
For this week’s video, I thought of doing something fun, which is following Kylie Jenner’s diet for a week.
I couldn’t find everything exactly the same as the ones she had, so I had to improvise from some of the food that I already have at home / available in Malaysia ?❤️
Fingers crossed after this pandemic when I get to travel again I’ll be able to go to some of her favourite dine-in places ✨

Nothing makes me feel more like a grown up than when I’m doing my own gardening. PLANTS? ALIVE? FEEDING MY LAWN? WHO THIS?
I’m not gonna lie. My front garden has given me grief for a while. Each time I pull up in my driveway to see all those weeds I’m reminded how much I suck tending my garden. But life gets in the way so you automatically put kids, home, work, exercise, self time, social etc in front. Still it’s back of my mind and bothering me. Well, I finally decided to do something about my garden. I pulled out the weeds (and accidentally quite a lot of my actual plants unfortunately), I even bought my own lawn mower and it seems silly but I celebrated this little victory of cutting my own grass. Now I pull up in my driveway proud and in admiration of my little garden. It's not perfect but it's not how it used to be. Kinda like me.
On another note. I also never thought I’ll get to become such an outdoorsy girl. I’ve always enjoyed the nature but never quite had the chance to properly take it in until now. Happy to walk miles and miles with somebody who enjoys walking for miles and miles.
I do wish I enjoyed gardening as much as I enjoy looking at them though hehe...
It's been 2 weeks of eating better and I am feeling much more myself again!!
