Nybegynnere EP. 11 – I stua (in the living room)

CONNIE: Oh! What a beautiful cat. What do you think?
GARY: I think I’d rather get a dog. Dogs are more loyal than cats.
CONNIE: Yes, but they’re so much work! Would you be willing to walk 
it every single day? And clean up after it?
GARY: Hmm. Good point. What about a bird? Or a fish?
CONNIE: We’d have to invest a lot of money in a cage or a fish tank. 
And I don’t really know how to take care of a bird or a fish!
GARY: Well, we’re obviously not ready to get a pet yet.
CONNIE: Yeah, you’re right. Let’s go grab some coffee and talk 
about it.


LANGUAGE NOTES
• Oh! What a beautiful cat “Oh!” is used to show surprise or excitement. “What a …” is 
an expression that means “I think this is a very …” “What a(n) …” is followed by an 
adjective, which is usually emphasized. Notice the emphasis on “beautiful” here.
• Dogs are more loyal than cats. Two things are being compared here (dogs and 
cats). Notice the structure of the sentences: (noun/s) plus “is/are more” plus 
(adjective) plus “than” plus (noun/s). The nouns and the adjective are content words 
here, so they are all emphasized.
• Every single day Notice that each word here is stressed. The speaker wants to make 
a point, so she emphasizes each word equally. “Every single day” is a lot!
• Good point here means “I agree with you.”
• Take care of This phrase is used with animals, people and things. It can mean 
“watch a child while her parents are away,” “feed and house someone or 
something,” or “make sure things work properly.” (I always take care of my baby 
brother./ I take care of my bird by feeding it and cleaning its cage./ I need to take 
care of the broken sink.)
• Yeah, you’re right. Notice the pronunciation of this expression — the words all 
blend together here. This casual expression is used to agree with someone that you 
know well.

大家好，我是Yuli。这是我的第5期播客。
上次和大家聊了“冷”的各种有趣的说法，今天我们来聊一聊“冷”的反义词：“热”。
热是温度高的意思。在我生活的城市广州，夏天的时候气温达到三十多度，真的很热。这里大家要注意一下，如果我们点一杯咖啡，我们可以说：“我要一杯热咖啡”。但是如果我们说这杯咖啡温度太高了，我们一般说：“这杯咖啡太烫了，我待会儿再喝。”“热”还可以做动词：“这个菜冷了，你把它热一热再吃吧。”
热也可以表示一个人的态度。例如，“他是一个很热情的人，经常邀请朋友和同事去他家吃饭。”“他是一个热心的人，经常帮助别人。”
热还可以表示受欢迎。例如，“现在计算机是大学的热门专业”，意思是很多人都想学习计算机。再举一个例子：“最近出现了欧洲旅游热。” 欧洲旅游热，意思是很多人都去欧洲旅游，欧洲旅游很受欢迎。
最后再介绍一个用法，“热点”。大家的手机有一个功能是“个人热点”，可以给别人分享你的网络，这样他们的手机就可以上网了。“热点”还有一个意思是“新闻热点”，也就是大家都在关注的新闻。
你最喜欢“热”的哪一个用法呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
