今天我们讲讲非常常用的“不好意思”。jīn tiān | wǒ men | jiǎng jiang | fēi cháng | cháng yòng | de | “bù hǎo yì si”Today we’re going to talk about the very commonly used phrase “bù hǎo yì si”.以前我的英国朋友问我：yǐ qián | wǒ | de | yīng guó | péng you | wèn | wǒOnce my British friend asked me:“不好意思”和“对不起”有什么区别？“bù hǎo yì si” | hé | “duì bu qǐ” | yǒu | shén me | qū biéWhat’s the difference between “bù hǎo yì si” and “duì bu qǐ”?她这么一问，我才发现这两个词确实很类似。tā | zhè me | yī wèn | wǒ | cái | fā xiàn | zhè | liǎng | gè | cí | què shí | hěn | lèi sìHer question made me realize that these two phrases are indeed very similar.我告诉她，“不好意思”的程度比“对不起”低，wǒ | gào su | tā | “bù hǎo yì si” | de | chéng dù | bǐ | “duì bu qǐ” | dīI told her that “bù hǎo yì si” is less intense than “duì bu qǐ”,是一种轻微的“对不起”。shì | yī | zhǒng | qīng wēi | de | “duì bu qǐ”it’s a mild form of “duì bu qǐ”.让我们来看例句吧。ràng | wǒ men | lái | kàn | lì jù | baLet’s take a look at some examples.在别人说话时，想插几句话，可以说：zài | bié rén | shuō huà | shí | xiǎng | chā | jǐ | jù | huà | kě yǐ | shuōWhen someone is talking and you want to chip in, you can say:“不好意思，我打断一下。”“bù hǎo yì si | wǒ | dǎ duàn | yī xià”“Excuse me, may I interrupt for a moment?”如果用“对不起”，也是可以的。rú guǒ | yòng | “duì bu qǐ” | yě | shì | kě yǐ | deUsing “duì bu qǐ” here is also acceptable.如果别人挡住你的路了，可以说：rú guǒ | bié rén | dǎng zhù | nǐ | de | lù | le | kě yǐ | shuōIf someone is blocking your way, you can say:“不好意思，借过一下。”“bù hǎo yì si | jiè guò | yī xià”“Excuse me, could I get by.”“不好意思，麻烦让一下。”“bù hǎo yì si | má fan | ràng | yī xià”“Excuse me, can I get pass please?”这里用“对不起”就不合适了。zhè lǐ | yòng | “duì bu qǐ” | jiù | bù | hé shì | leUsing “duì bu qǐ” here would be inappropriate.如果想找个路人问路，可以说：rú guǒ | xiǎng | zhǎo | gè | lù rén | wèn | lù | kě yǐ | shuōIf you want to ask a stranger for directions, you can say:“不好意思，请问地铁站怎么走？”“bù hǎo yì si | qǐng wèn | dì tiě | zhàn | zěn me | zǒu”“Excuse me, could you tell me how to get to the subway station?”这里也不适合换成“对不起”。zhè lǐ | yě | bù | shì hé | huàn | chéng | “duì bu qǐ”Replacing it with “duì bu qǐ” here is also unsuitable.如果要拒绝别人的邀请，可以说：rú guǒ | yào | jù jué | bié rén | de | yāo qǐng | kě yǐ | shuōIf you need to decline someone’s invitation, you can say:“不好意思，我今晚来不了了。”“bù hǎo yì si | wǒ | jīn wǎn | lái | bu | liǎo | le”“I’m sorry, I can’t make it tonight.”这里也可以换成“对不起”。zhè lǐ | yě | kě yǐ | huàn | chéng | “duì bu qǐ”Replacing it with “duì bu qǐ” here is also okay.如果别人拿错了你的书，可以说：rú guǒ | bié rén | ná | cuò | le | nǐ | de | shū | kě yǐ | shuōIf someone has taken your book by mistake, you can say:“不好意思，你好像拿错我的书了。”“bù hǎo yì si | nǐ | hǎo xiàng | ná | cuò | wǒ | de | shū | le”“Excuse me, I think you’ve taken my book by mistake.”这里用“对不起”不太合适。zhè lǐ | yòng | “duì bu qǐ” | bù | tài | hé shì | leUsing “duì bu qǐ” here is not very appropriate.如果迟到了几分钟，可以说：rú guǒ | chí dào | le | jǐ | fēn | zhōng | kě yǐ | shuōIf you’re a few minutes late, you can say:“不好意思，我来晚了，路上堵车。”“bù hǎo yì si | wǒ | lái | wǎn | le | lù | shàng | dǔ chē”“I’m sorry I’m late, there was a traffic jam on the way.”这里换成“对不起”也是可以的。zhè lǐ | huàn | chéng | “duì bu qǐ” | yě | shì | kě yǐ | de你发现了吗，nǐ | fā xiàn | le | ma“不好意思”用于礼貌打扰、求助、询问的时候，“bù hǎo yì si” | yòng yú | lǐ mào | dǎ rǎo | qiú zhù | xún wèn | de | shí hou更贴近于excuse me，gèng | tiē jìn | yú | excuse me用在表示一点点歉意的时候，yòng | zài | biǎo shì | yī | diǎn diǎn | qiàn yì | de | shí hou更贴近于sorry。gèng | tiē jìn | yú | sorry反过来，如果你要对自己的错误道歉，fǎn | guò lái | rú guǒ | nǐ | yào | duì | zì jǐ | de | cuò wù | dào qiàn是不能用“不好意思”的。shì | bù | néng | yòng | “bù hǎo yì si” | de比如“对不起，我错了。”bǐ rú | “duì bu qǐ | wǒ | cuò | le”如果说成“不好意思，我错了。”rú guǒ | shuō | chéng | “bù hǎo yì si | wǒ | cuò | le”那就感觉你并不是真诚道歉，nà | jiù | gǎn jué | nǐ | bìng | bú | shì | zhēn chéng | dào qiàn可能还有一些藐视对方。kě néng | hái | yǒu | yī | xiē | miǎo shì | duì fāng你学会了吗？nǐ | xué | huì | le | ma

我们小区外面开了一家新店，wǒ men | xiǎo qū | wài miàn | kāi le | yī jiā | xīn diàn，A new store opened outside our residential complex.我们每天从前面路过，wǒ men | měi tiān | cóng | qián miàn | lù guò，We pass by it every day.看到店里在装修，kàn dào | diàn lǐ | zài | zhuāng xiū，We saw that the store was being renovated.我们猜测是什么店呢，wǒ men | cāi cè | shì | shén me | diàn | ne，We guessed what kind of store it would be.最后知道了，是面包店。zuì hòu | zhī dào le | shì | miàn bāo diàn。Finally, we found out it was a bakery.这个新的面包店有一个蓝色的门头，zhè ge | xīn de | miàn bāo diàn | yǒu | yī gè | lán sè | de | mén tóu，This new bakery has a blue storefront sign.店里面有很多大的烘焙设备，diàn lǐ miàn | yǒu | hěn duō | dà de | hōng bèi | shè bèi，There are many large baking equipments inside the store.但是它的面包都是用塑料袋一个个包起来的，dàn shì | tā de | miàn bāo | dōu shì | yòng | sù liào dài | yī gè gè | bāo qǐ lái de，But all its breads are individually wrapped in plastic bags.不像很多面包店那样，是未包装的，bù xiàng | hěn duō | miàn bāo diàn | nà yàng | shì | wèi bāo zhuāng de，Unlike many bakeries where the bread is unpackaged.这给人感觉好像并不是新鲜现做的。zhè | gěi rén | gǎn jué | hǎo xiàng | bìng | bú shì | xīn xiān | xiàn zuò de。This gives people the impression that it may not be freshly made.对于这个没听说过的牌子，duì yú | zhè ge | méi tīng shuō guo | de | pái zi，As for this brand I've never heard of,我本来是不想进去的，wǒ | běn lái | shì | bù xiǎng | jìn qù de，I didn't want to go in at first.可是奈何孩子们想吃，kě shì | nài hé | hái zi men | xiǎng chī，But the kids wanted to eat bread, so I had to.我们就进去买了，wǒ men | jiù | jìn qù | mǎi le，We went in and bought some.店里的装修味道还很明显。diàn lǐ | de | zhuāng xiū | wèi dào | hái | hěn | míng xiǎn。The smell of renovation in the store was still quite strong.新开业的活动是充100送30，xīn kāi yè | de | huó dòng | shì | chōng | yì bǎi | sòng | sān shí，The opening promotion was "recharge 100 yuan get 30 yuan free".而且买二送一，ér qiě | mǎi | èr | sòng | yī，And "buy two get one free" .我们买了好几次，wǒ men | mǎi le | hǎo jǐ cì，We bought bread there several times.味道还可以，wèi dào | hái | kě yǐ，The taste was okay.但是我也不太放心。dàn shì | wǒ | yě | bù | tài | fàng xīn。But I still wasn't totally reassured.从商业的角度来看，cóng | shāng yè | de | jiǎo dù | lái kàn，From a business perspective,我不看好这个店，wǒ | bù | kàn hǎo | zhè ge | diàn，I'm not optimistic about this store.甚至认为它不久就会关闭。shèn zhì | rèn wéi | tā | bù jiǔ | jiù | huì | guān bì。I even think it will close down soon.--------------For full transcript or 1 on 1 tutoring: yoyomo85@gmail.com

今天我们聊聊“二”和“两”，jīn tiān | wǒ men | liáo liáo | “èr” | hé | “liǎng”Today we’ll talk about "èr" (two) and "liǎng" (two).这是不是个让你困惑的问题呢？zhè | shì bù shì | gè | ràng | nǐ | kùn huò | de | wèn tí | neIs this a confusing question for you?我的孩子学会说话后，wǒ | de | hái zi | xué huì | shuō huà | hòuAfter my children learned to speak,只会用“二”，zhǐ | huì | yòng | “èr”they only use "èr",比如“二个苹果”，bǐ rú | “èr gè | píng guǒ”for example, "èr gè píng guǒ" (two apples).但是，我们大人并不会去批评他们。dàn shì | wǒ men | dà rén | bìng | bù huì | qù | pī píng | tā menHowever, we adults don’t criticize them for it.他们每天反复地听大人们是怎么说的，tā men | měi tiān | fǎn fù | de | tīng | dà rén men | shì | zěn me | shuō | deThey listen repeatedly to how adults speak every day,然后就慢慢学会了。rán hòu | jiù | màn màn | xué huì | leand then gradually learn the correct usage.所以，你不用非常刻意去区分，suǒ yǐ | nǐ | bù yòng | fēi cháng | kè yì | qù | qū fēnSo you don’t need to deliberately distinguish between them—只需要重复听重复模仿就行啦。zhǐ | xū yào | chóng fù | tīng | chóng fù | mó fǎng | jiù xíng | layou just need to listen and imitate repeatedly.首先，必须用“二”的情况，shǒu xiān | bì xū | yòng | “èr” | de | qíng kuàngFirst, situations where "èr" must be used:第一，数学计算，dì yī | shù xué | jì suàn1.

那天我看了一个视频，nà | tiān | wǒ | kàn | le | yī | gè | shì | pínThe other day, I watched a video,是一个美国人拍的第一次到中国旅游的vlog，shì | yī | gè | měi | guó | rén | pāi | de | dì | yī | cì | dào | zhōng | guó | lǚ | yóu | de | vloga vlog shot by an American traveling to China for the first time.这个人有点可爱，zhè | ge | rén | yǒu | diǎn | kě | àiThis guy is kind of cute,他一边感到新鲜，一边有点害怕。tā | yī | biān | gǎn | dào | xīn | xiān | yī | biān | yǒu | diǎn | hài | pàfeeling both curious and a little scared at the same time.而且他来的第一个城市就是成都，ér | qiě | tā | lái | de | dì | yī | gè | chéng | shì | jiù | shì | chéng | dūAnd the first city he visited was Chengdu.成都这些年确实吸引了很多人来旅游。chéng | dū | zhè | xiē | nián | què | shí | xī | yǐn | le | hěn | duō | rén | lái | lǚ | yóuChengdu has really attracted a lot of tourists in recent years.通过他的视频，tōng | guò | tā | de | shì | pínThrough his video,我来讲讲到中国旅游要注意的一些点。wǒ | lái | jiǎng | jiang | dào | zhōng | guó | lǚ | yóu | yào | zhù | yì | de | yī | xiē | diǎnI’d like to talk about some tips for traveling to China.比如他提前准备好了手机支付，bǐ | rú | tā | tí | qián | zhǔn | bèi | hǎo | le | shǒu | jī | zhī | fùFor example, he prepared mobile payment in advance,这就非常方便了，zhè | jiù | fēi | cháng | fāng | biàn | lewhich is very convenient.你可以选择alipay或wechat来支付，nǐ | kě | yǐ | xuǎn | zé | Alipay | huò | WeChat | lái | zhī | fùYou can choose to pay with Alipay or WeChat,就完全不需要带现金。jiù | wán | quán | bù | xū | yào | dài | xiàn | jīnand you don’t need to carry any cash at all.比如他用google地图导航，bǐ | rú | tā | yòng | Google | dì | tú | dǎo | hángAnother example: he used Google Maps for navigation,实际效果还不如出租车司机的经验，shí | jì | xiào | guǒ | hái | bù | rú | chū | zū | chē | sī | jī | de | jīng | yànbut its actual effect was not as good as a taxi driver’s experience.我们平时用的是苹果地图或高德地图或百度地图。wǒ | men | píng | shí | yòng | de | shì | Apple | Maps | huò | Gaode | Maps | huò | Baidu | MapsWhat we usually use are Apple Maps, Amap or Baidu Maps.比如他有点紧张，说他不会触碰底线，bǐ | rú | tā | yǒu | diǎn | jǐn | zhāng | shuō | tā | bù | huì | chù | pèng | dǐ | xiànAnd he was also a bit nervous, saying he wouldn’t cross any lines,这一点呢，我觉得他多虑了，zhè | yī | diǎn | ne | wǒ | jué | de | tā | duō | lǜ | lebut I think he was overthinking it.其实普通人都是正常地生活，qí | shí | pǔ | tōng | rén | dōu | shì | zhèng | cháng | de | shēng | huóIn fact, ordinary people live normal lives,没有什么普遍的禁忌，méi | yǒu | shén | me | pǔ | biàn | de | jìn | jìwith no universal taboos.大部分人对外国人都很友好。dà | bù | fen | rén | duì | wài | guó | rén | dōu | hěn | yǒu | hǎoMost people are very friendly to foreigners.还有一个就是语言，hái | yǒu | yī | gè | jiù | shì | yǔ | yánAnother thing is language.我们的听众肯定会一些中文了，wǒ | men | de | tīng | zhòng | kěn | dìng | huì | yī | xiē | zhōng | wén | leOur listeners definitely know some Chinese,这个博主他完全不会中文，zhè | ge | bó | zhǔ | tā | wán | quán | bù | huì | zhōng | wénbut this vlogger doesn’t know any Chinese at all.所以他用了一个手机翻译app，suǒ | yǐ | tā | yòng | le | yī | gè | shǒu | jī | fān | yì | appSo he used a mobile translation app,但是它只能翻译成文字，让对方看，dàn | shì | tā | zhǐ | néng | fān | yì | chéng | wén | zì | ràng | duì | fāng | kànbut it only translates into text for the other person to read.我觉得可以用一些语音的翻译app，wǒ | jué | de | kě | yǐ | yòng | yī | xiē | yǔ | yīn | de | fān | yì | appI think you can use some voice translation apps instead,手机直接就可以读出来，shǒu | jī | zhí | jiē | jiù | kě | yǐ | dú | chū | láiwhere the phone can read the translation aloud directly,会方便很多。huì | fāng | biàn | hěn | duōwhich is much more convenient.现在还有一些特殊的眼镜或手表，xiàn | zài | hái | yǒu | yī | xiē | tè | shū | de | yǎn | jìng | huò | shǒu | biǎoNow there are also some special glasses or watches可以做实时的语音翻译。kě | yǐ | zuò | shí | shí | de | yǔ | yīn | fān | yìthat can do real-time voice translation.----For full transcript: yoyomo85@gmail.com

这首歌值得我非常认真地来介绍它，zhè | shǒu | gē | zhí | dé | wǒ | fēi | cháng | rèn | zhēn | de | lái | jiè | shào | tāThis song deserves me to introduce it seriously，值得我做两期节目。zhí | dé | wǒ | zuò | liǎng | qī | jié | mùAnd it deserves me to make two episodes about it.这个演员叫任素汐，zhè | ge | yǎn | yuán | jiào | rén | sù | xīThis actress is called Ren Suxi.网友们戏称，她是被演戏耽误了的歌手，wǎng | yǒu | men | xī | chēng | tā | shì | bèi | yǎn | xì | dān | wù | le | de | gē | shǒuNetizens jokingly call her a singer who was delayed by acting.她创作了很多广为传唱的电影主题曲，tā | chuàng | zuò | le | hěn | duō | guǎng | wéi | chuán | chàng | de | diàn | yǐng | zhǔ | tí | qǔShe has created many widely sung movie theme songs.很多都是她自己作词作曲并演唱。hěn | duō | dōu | shì | tā | zì | jǐ | zuò | cí | zuò | qǔ | bìng | yǎn | chàngMany of them are written, composed and sung by herself.我时常会在陪孩子睡觉前，wǒ | shí | cháng | huì | zài | péi | hái | zi | shuì | jiào | qiánI often, before accompanying the children to sleep,关灯后，给孩子们听点好歌。guān | dēng | hòu | gěi | hái | zi | men | tīng | diǎn | hǎo | gēafter turning off the lights, play some good songs for the kids.当我给他们听这首歌的时候，dāng | wǒ | gěi | tā | men | tīng | zhè | shǒu | gē | de | shí | houWhen I played this song for them,我们觉得旋律很好听，wǒ | men | jué | de | xuán | lǜ | hěn | hǎo | tīngwe thought the melody was very pleasant.但是当我给他们逐句讲歌词意思的时候，dàn | shì | dāng | wǒ | gěi | tā | men | zhú | jù | jiǎng | gē | cí | yì | si | de | shí | houBut when I explained the meaning of the lyrics to them sentence by sentence,我才发现，这不是一首普通的歌。wǒ | cái | fā | xiàn | zhè | bù | shì | yī | shǒu | pǔ | tōng | de | gēI realized that this is not an ordinary song.2025年有一部任素汐演的电影上映，èr | líng | èr | wǔ | nián | yǒu | yī | bù | rén | sù | xī | yǎn | de | diàn | yǐng | shàng | yìngIn 2025, a movie starring Ren Suxi was released.主题是关于犯罪少年，zhǔ | tí | shì | guān | yú | fàn | zuì | shào | niánIts theme is about juvenile delinquents.这些犯罪少年通常都有一个糟糕的原生家庭，zhè | xiē | fàn | zuì | shào | nián | tōng | cháng | dōu | yǒu | yī | gè | zāo | gāo | de | yuán | shēng | jiā | tíngThese juvenile delinquents usually have a terrible original family.他们的童年非常不幸。tā | men | de | tóng | nián | fēi | cháng | bù | xìngTheir childhoods were very unfortunate.这个演员就写了这首歌的歌词，zhè | ge | yǎn | yuán | jiù | xiě | le | zhè | shǒu | gē | de | gē | cíThis actress wrote the lyrics of this song.是长大后的自己对小时候的自己说的话，shì | zhǎng | dà | hòu | de | zì | jǐ | duì | xiǎo | shí | hou | de | zì | jǐ | shuō | de | huàIt is what the grown-up self says to the childhood self.描绘了一个充满创伤的童年，miáo | huì | le | yī | gè | chōng | mǎn | chuāng | shāng | de | tóng | niánIt depicts a childhood full of trauma.并鼓励小时候的自己勇敢向前。bìng | gǔ | lì | xiǎo | shí | hou | de | zì | jǐ | yǒng | gǎn | xiàng | qiánAnd encourages the childhood self to move forward bravely.我们听了很多很多遍，wǒ | men | tīng | le | hěn | duō | hěn | duō | biànWe listened to it many, many times.总是有一种优美又忧伤的感觉。zǒng | shì | yǒu | yī | zhǒng | yōu | měi | yòu | yōu | shāng | de | gǎn | juéThere is always a feeling of beauty mixed with sadness.我觉得这是一首非常有意义的歌，wǒ | jué | de | zhè | shì | yī | shǒu | fēi | cháng | yǒu | yì | yì | de | gēI think this is a very meaningful song.不是你情我爱，bù | shì | nǐ | qíng | wǒ | àiIt is not about romantic love.不是无病呻吟，bù | shì | wú | bìng | shēn | yínNor is it unfounded sentimentality.我们也非常感谢有这样的创作者，wǒ | men | yě | fēi | cháng | gǎn | xiè | yǒu | zhè | yàng | de | chuàng | zuò | zhěWe are also very grateful for such creators.用卓越的作品来反映社会现实。yòng | zhuó | yuè | de | zuò | pǐn | lái | fǎn | yìng | shè | huì | xiàn | shíWho reflect social reality with outstanding works.那么我们先听一段吧，nà | me | wǒ | men | xiān | tīng | yī | duàn | baSo let's listen to a part of it first.下一期，我们再来一句句拆解。xià | yī | qī | wǒ | men | zài | lái | yī | jù | jù | chāi | jiěNext episode, we will break it down sentence by sentence.
