Lift 定 elevator?

HokShan — 2024-01-08 06:50:45 UTC

L'Oréal 有隻減皺抗衰老cream，個名叫Revitalift。Lift除咗可以攞嚟搭，仲可以解作「提起」，所以有此一用。美式英文嘅𨋢叫做elevator，比英式英文lift更妙，elevate解作昇華，不過就唔好同串法同讀音都有啲似嘅 escalate (情況惡化) 撈亂。例句：When Peter was angry and started crying after losing the football match, Miss Law said to him that it was just a process for him to elevate himself and thus stopped the situation from escalating. #英語一分鐘

It is very important that ...

HokShan — 2024-01-08 06:53:17 UTC

好少會睇到native speakers寫，一睇就知係唐人寫嘅句子：「It is very important that…」因為中學英文作文考試謠傳係計字數。其實只要寫一個（概念）名詞，加「matters」，就會達到預期效果，因為Simplicity matters。（咁寫自然過「It is very important that we keep everything simple. 」。） #英語一分鐘

Everyday vs every day

HokShan — 2024-01-08 06:58:40 UTC

Everyday 同 every day 嘅分別 = 大部分情況都解得通嘅解法係：everyday 係形容詞 = 每天的，如 everyday routine 。Every (single) day 係副詞或名詞 = 每(一)天，如 She listens to YouTube Music every day / Every day is a dream come true。

For everyone’s comfort

HokShan — 2024-01-08 07:03:32 UTC

上次教師發展日（伊館大會），有位分享嘅東華校長嘅其中一項學歷係「催眠證書」。究竟催眠同教學嘅關係係咩呢？原來催眠課會教寫文本。呢句”Move forward for everyone’s comfort.”將大家嘅舒適感以名詞作為前設，閱讀嘅人嘅同理心更易被喚起，為其他人着想。同”Thank you for your cooperation.”同理。

呢句如果寫成”Move forward so that everyone will be comfortable.”，意思雖然相同，卻用咗8個字，比原句多咗3個字，書寫好英文以化繁為簡為大原則，應該用邊句？我唔使多講啦！

YouTube should be … prohibited or banned?

2024-03-06 23:01:38 UTC

學習英文必經階段，係喺考試時用多d多音節、長d、睇起嚟深d嘅字，以為咁樣就可以博取評卷員嘅分數。有人提議「YouTube should be prohibited.」，特區政府嘅回應裏，提到未有「proposed to ban」任何社交媒體平台。Ban（禁用）雖然得三個字母，卻比prohibit (禁止）用得更自然，因為YouTube一類社交平台同ban字係自古至今約定俗成嘅搭配詞組（collocation) 。

Pun

2024-03-11 01:59:26 UTC

This is a pun. A play on words. Here ‘meat’ is used instead of ‘meet’. This shop sells meat and playfully used the word. Phonetically ‘meat’ and ‘meet’ have the same sound but spelled differently and don’t have the same meaning.

“Keep Calm and Carry On” (Catherine 6B 10)

2024-05-29 03:23:25 UTC

I recently saw the phrase "Keep Calm and Carry On" on a T-shirt and found it intriguing. I looked into its origin and usage, and learned that it was a wartime poster slogan designed by the British government to boost morale. Now it has become a popular English expression to convey the idea of remaining calm and composed in the face of difficulties. I discussed this with my friends, and we all found it interesting and explored the cultural context together.

What is an apple?

It is a fruit that COULD be grown anywhere,apples contain 0 grams of fat or sodium and have no cholesterol. At 4 grams per average size apple, they are an excellent source of fiber. Apples are members of the rose family. Thanks to their high levels of boron, apples can help improve your memory, mental alertness, and electrical activity of the brain.

I am not sure why they say "An apple a day keeps the doctor away"

(side note : I just googled it and the reason is "if one eats healthful foods, one will remain in good health and will not need to see the doctor often.")
