【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。
