美國(guó)文化脫口秀 第384期:為什么你的語(yǔ)法如此別扭
關(guān)鍵詞：
傳統(tǒng)語(yǔ)法教學(xué)反人性
Grammar is viewed as a monster because of how it's taught in China: 傳統(tǒng)的教學(xué)方式，讓很多中國(guó)人覺(jué)得語(yǔ)法就像洪水猛獸
It's so technical and theoretical: 實(shí)在太理論了
Our edutcation approach has led many to think they need to memorize and understand grammar rules before they can use English: 我們的教學(xué)方式讓很多人覺(jué)得要先背語(yǔ)法規(guī)則，才能說(shuō)英語(yǔ)、用英語(yǔ)
That's a huge misconception: 這是一個(gè)很大的誤區(qū)
怎么學(xué)語(yǔ)法才有效?
We didn't have grammar classes. We learned grammar through reading and writing: 我們沒(méi)有獨(dú)立的語(yǔ)法課。我們學(xué)語(yǔ)法就是通過(guò)閱讀和寫
We learned parts of speech, but we didn't learn all the technical linguistic theories: 我們會(huì)學(xué)詞性，但是不會(huì)學(xué)特別技術(shù)性的語(yǔ)言學(xué)理論
The stand-alone approach to teaching grammar doesn't work: 把語(yǔ)法單獨(dú)分出來(lái)教效果是很差的
The stand-alone approach always starts with grammar rules: 這種語(yǔ)法分隔的教學(xué)法總會(huì)先教學(xué)生規(guī)則
But after learning abstract rules, you're confused as hell: 但是學(xué)完這些抽象的規(guī)則，大多數(shù)人已經(jīng)暈了
Or too scared: 或者被嚇跑了
不要從語(yǔ)法切入
要從高頻場(chǎng)景、高頻語(yǔ)言入手
Learning English as a second English is different from first language acquisition, but there're still common rules:當(dāng)然二語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)跟母語(yǔ)是不一樣的，但是還是有一些共同點(diǎn)
That is do not start learning English from learning grammar rules: 就是不要以語(yǔ)法為切入點(diǎn)學(xué)英語(yǔ)
You need to start with high frequency situations and high frequency language: 要從高頻場(chǎng)景和高頻語(yǔ)言切入
Expose yourself to natural English input and resources: 多接觸自然的英語(yǔ)輸入、英語(yǔ)資源
You can learn the grammar pattern afterwards to help you apply in more general contexts: 然后再總結(jié)語(yǔ)法規(guī)則，以便以后更廣泛應(yīng)用
But never start the other way around：但是千萬(wàn)不要倒過(guò)來(lái)、先學(xué)語(yǔ)法，再去溝通
學(xué)語(yǔ)法，要挑選 多接觸常用語(yǔ)法 我們常收到用戶語(yǔ)法類的問(wèn)題，比如：
倒裝句怎么用?
How do I use inverted sentences?
可是，你有沒(méi)有想過(guò)，你平時(shí)會(huì)不會(huì)用倒裝句?
Why am I even using inverted sentences?
This grammar point is very formal: 這個(gè)語(yǔ)法點(diǎn)只用在非常正式的情況下
就像"Never have I heard it before"，"Nowhere can I find my lost watch"這些句子。
為什么你的語(yǔ)法如此別扭
大家想想，這其實(shí)都是特別日常的生活場(chǎng)景，完全沒(méi)有必要用倒裝句。
你用了，反而顯得非常奇怪!
You don't need to use inverted sentences in common everyday situations: 日?？谡Z(yǔ)很少用倒裝句
Instead of saying "Nowhere can I find my lost watch", you can just say “I can't find my watch anywhere”: 根本不需要說(shuō)"Nowhere can I find my lost watch"，說(shuō)““I can't find my watch anywhere”
If you use the inverted structure, you will sound really awkward: 如果你用了倒裝句，聽(tīng)起來(lái)會(huì)非常別扭
So never learn grammar from rules, from principles, from the book. Always start with real-life situations: 所以大家學(xué)語(yǔ)法一定不要先去找語(yǔ)法書(shū)、先去背一大堆規(guī)則。而是要從實(shí)際生活出發(fā)。
擁抱真實(shí)的生活 真實(shí)的語(yǔ)言
This is not what language is supposed to be. It's not first finding the structure and then saying something. 語(yǔ)言不應(yīng)該是這個(gè)樣子的，不是先找到結(jié)構(gòu)再去表達(dá).
It should be you expressing yourself, hopefully using the right structure：語(yǔ)言的目的是幫你表達(dá)自己，用最恰當(dāng)?shù)姆绞?/p>
受了多年反人性的語(yǔ)法教育 你該怎么辦?
其實(shí)說(shuō)到這里，希望大家對(duì)于語(yǔ)法學(xué)習(xí)有了一些新認(rèn)識(shí)。
這也就是為什么我們每天發(fā)新課、不斷帶來(lái)實(shí)用、有趣的內(nèi)容。
因?yàn)?，學(xué)好英語(yǔ)，一定要融入生活、變成習(xí)慣;習(xí)慣成自然、習(xí)慣成愛(ài)好!
You need to make English a part of your daily life, turn it into a routine, make it into a lifelong passion.
接地氣的方法學(xué)語(yǔ)法
We really didn't want to take the traditional grammar rules approach: 我們完全不想以傳統(tǒng)的語(yǔ)法教學(xué)法教大家
Instead, we will focus on some of the most common grammar questions and mistakes Chinese tend to make: 相反，我們會(huì)重點(diǎn)講講大家普遍遇到的語(yǔ)法困惑、糾正最常見(jiàn)的錯(cuò)誤
Start with the "low-hanging fruit" and master it：從最基本的開(kāi)始，把它學(xué)扎實(shí)
比如，中國(guó)人常常對(duì)于"the"很困惑：什么時(shí)候用The? 什么時(shí)候不用The?
最后，真誠(chéng)地跟大家說(shuō)：不要因?yàn)檎Z(yǔ)法懼怕英語(yǔ)、抗拒英語(yǔ)。一定要多聽(tīng)多看自己用得到、感興趣的英語(yǔ)資源。從真實(shí)的語(yǔ)言入手，培養(yǎng)正確自然的英語(yǔ)使用習(xí)慣。再去總結(jié)語(yǔ)法。
This is way more helpful than just memorizing grammar rules.
