趣味英语第193期:说话时怎么能不再每隔一个单词就加个like（在线收听）

Blaciet100 wants to know...

Blaciet100想知道：

"How do I stop saying 'like' every other word?"

“说话时怎么能不再每隔一个单词就加个like？”

I hate that myself. I know a lot of people that do say, "like, like." Just get it out of your vocabulary.

我自己也很讨厌这样。我知道许多人会在说话时不停地说like。只要把这个词从你的词汇中剔除就好了。

Find a close friend who you know will, like, stay on top of this. And tell them that every single time that you say "like" or "um" or whatever, have them, like, punch you or flick you.

找一个能压制这个习惯的亲密朋友。让他们在你每次说like或um之类的口头语时打你或弹你一下。

Find another word, I guess, such as "dude." Instead of saying "I, like, can't believe this, like, happened," "Dude, I can't believe this happened, dude."

换个词说，比如“伙计”。不要说“我简直无法相信会发生这种事。”而是说：“伙计，我简直无法相信会发生这样的事。”

Just stop. Think before you speak.

停下。说话之前要三思。

Really think about what you're saying before you say it. And any time you're about to say the word "like," instead of saying "like," just pause and just think for a little bit. And then you'll formulate your sentence, and it'll come out very well and very clearly.

在讲话之前认真想清楚。任何时候你要说like时，不要说出来，先停下来想一想。然后再完成你要说的话，这样你的话语就会更清晰明了。

I guess you can try to catch yourself most of the time. And then, like — see?

我想大部分时间你都会发现自己说了这个词。就像这样，看到了吧？

I don't know. It's, like — I just said "like"! (whimpers)

我不知道。就是……我刚刚也说了like这个词！（呜咽）

You can try thinking hard about what you're saying and, like — oh my god, I just said "like." I can't. I don't know, because I say "like" every other word.

你可以试着仔细想想自己要说的话，然后……我的天哪，我刚刚说了like。我也做不到。我不知道，因为我也每隔一个词就会加个like。
