这期节目让人太有触感了，记得刚出国找到第一份工作后的初期阶段就因为很少在句尾说“please”被同事误会很没有礼貌，当时觉得很委屈，后来才知道这对他们很重要！这些在校园环境里还不一定能学到知道的，而且没有人会去主动纠正你的问题，如果自己再意识不到就有点惨了，无论你说话多么温柔，一定记得加please，否则要小心别因为这个就被不知不觉中贴了标签误会了……🥺

這兩天才發現Mike的頻道，而這是我第一次留言。這一集講的真好，所有的建議都非常好也完全正確，以我在美國生活了過去這27年多的經驗。這些也都是我跟美國人在工作和生活上相處和接觸所學習到的。我們亞洲人的文化和語言習慣和美國人有很多不同的地方，所以如果不學習美國人溝通的方式，到他們的國家社會都會不自覺地讓人覺得你很不禮貌，而且他們也不會當面直接告訴你你這個人說話很不禮貌的。只是你可能就慢慢被他們列為拒絕往來戶了。所以學習這個很重要。

The first year in Australia, I was embarrassed with "How are you". I regarded it as a serious question and tried my best to describe my real feeling. Until end of my second year in AU, I got habit with this finally and treated it as "hello". Some language habit would make others uncomfortable but it doesn't mean the person wants to be impolite. Now m trying to learn their culture more to help myself show my polite out.😄

是的，很有同感。最好去英文公司工作一段时间，接下电话，写写英文邮件，就会很有感觉自己说话不要太直接，会令对方感觉冒犯。虽然对方不会直接回击，但是心里会有个不太好印象。但是恰恰国人说话习惯很直接。其实也会有些固定说话套路，把几个套路用习惯了就容易沟通融入。

In Belgium, they do ask those kind of questions 😝😝😝, you see that isn't only Chinese. I was also surprised when I was asked those. Polite or impolite depend on which kind of people you meet, not which country

[@pashaw8380]

Chinese in general tend to be much more intrigued toward those personal questions. Oftentimes they just want to pry and make comparisons for the sole purpose of stroking their own egos. Such questions, if asked by close friends, would be totally fine. Growing up in the West I've never even once received such questions by others. Just my 2 cents.

[@lijuan855]

@@pashaw8380 I have lived here 16 years. I have been asked such questions hundreds times. They are not my close friends. I don't criticize anyone, just want to say, every culture has own way to communicate with each other. You can't compare each other with your own culture. I live here, just accept what comes in my way. If I live in China, I accept their ways. Where you live, you should accept local culture and not try to change

[@alinawang3875]

Honestly, when I was in New Zealand, people often asked me these personal questions as well. I was very surprised when they did this. Because when I was in China, my English teacher told me these questions were impolite. I always avoid asking these personal questions, but in the end you will find that everyone is very gossip.

Fantastic video , thank you so much teacher Mike! This is what real “ Chinese English “ sounds like to foreigners . When we are talking about “ Chinese English “ ,most of people just think that it has a lot to do with our Chinese accent, but my personal point of view is that It’s got something to do with not only the Chinese accent, but also the Chinese culture, we really have to blend some “ English culture or background “ in the English we use, even if we could speak English as fluent as Teacher Mike, if we start asking foreigners some personal questions and talking to foreigners in “Chinese ways “ we are so used to in China , they may just get offended and think : this guy is so “ Chinese “.

[@exlife9446]

我有一次在地铁里，有个老外和我问路，开口就是 excuse me sir, ... 还让我有点惊讶，还是第一次听到陌生人这样叫我。我已经习惯了陌生人中国人打招呼的时候称呼我“师傅”（他们用这个词称呼一个陌生的中年男人），其实是一个我不太喜欢的称呼（感觉像是称呼一个社会底层人士的词），但很多人这样叫，我也就不当回事了。

[@chenchen6027]

很多老外讲中文也很不礼貌，我们也不会当回事，因为我们知道汉语对于外国人来说是二外，但是中国人讲英文就不行，很多老外就觉得没礼貌，我觉得是这些外国人格局太小了，当然这对中国人也有好处，师夷长技以制夷么？多花点时间研究英语或文化也是件好事，这样我们会变的更博学。

[@9007dodo]

天國近了，我們應當悔改，信耶穌。時候將到，死人將要在審判日時，爲自己在地上所作的一切行爲，在神的面前受審判。那時，就再也沒有人有機會悔改了。所以我們應當趁著審判官還沒定我們的罪之前，趕緊和祂和好，悔改我們的不義行爲，祈求祂赦免我們的罪，免得祂定我們的罪，我們就落在刑罰之中。主耶穌基督就是那位審判官，天國和地獄的鑰匙在主耶穌的手中。 欺騙，貪心，口吐惡言，荒宴，偷竊，殺人，犯奸淫，淫亂，好色，不尊重父母，詭詐，狂傲，拜偶像，交鬼，占卜，觀兆，法術，邪術，嫉妒，惱怒，紛爭，結黨，詭詐 ，醉酒，怨恨，毀謗，惡念，同性戀，亂稱神的名，自稱是神，稱人或動物或金銀木石土等物質為神，褻瀆神，違背神，罵神，不肯悔改信耶穌，等等這些在神的面前都是罪，只要我們犯了其中一個罪，就足夠稱我們為罪人了。如果我們現在不悔改這些罪惡行爲，仍然繼續犯下去，那麽以後審判日的時候要怎麽和神交代呢？喜歡犯罪作惡的人，神將來是要報應他的。但神愛世人，不願世人因自己的罪惡而滅亡，所以仍然給我們機會去悔改，而悔改的方法衹有一個，那就是信靠耶穌。像一個從前敗家的孩子回到父親的身邊，向父親認罪悔改，祈求赦免，并且聽從父親的教導，從此成爲一個乖孩子。所以我們也要藉著主耶穌回到父神的面前，向父神認罪悔改，祈求赦免，并聽從主耶穌的教導，重新做人，改過自新，不再犯罪。主耶穌可以赦免我們一切的罪。主耶穌可以幫助我們重新做人。 耶穌基督降世爲人，因爲愛我們，不願我們因自己的罪惡滅亡，所以要教導我們脫離罪惡的行爲，糾正我們的生活，要救我們脫離將來的審判，甚至願意在過程中受苦，被人逼迫，辱駡，鞭打，吐唾沫，爲你我而流淚流血，被釘在十字架上而死。主耶穌爲了贖你我世人的【罪】而被釘在十字架上而死。 但主耶穌死後第三日復活，后升到天上去，以後還要回來拯救屬於祂的人。 人死後要麽得永生進天國，要麽得永刑進地獄。地獄里的火是不滅的，蟲是不死的。悔改信靠主耶穌的人能進天國，不願悔改信靠主耶穌的人不能進天國。 我們要接受主耶穌爲我們生命中獨一的救主，生命中獨一的真神。你們若有憂愁，就來尋找主耶穌，主耶穌就安慰你們。若有困難的，就來尋找主耶穌，主耶穌就賜給你們力量。若有傷痕累累的，就來尋找主耶穌，主耶穌就醫治你們。若有勞苦重擔的，就來尋找主耶穌，主耶穌就使你們得安息。主耶穌可以赦免你們一切的罪，主耶穌可以賜給你們真平安和喜樂，主耶穌可以賜給你們死後復活得永生。主耶穌連使死人復活都可以，在人是不能，在神凡事都能。 除了耶穌的名，世上沒有別的名可以使人得救。獨一的真神衹用一個名字來代表自己，那就是【耶穌】。 主耶穌教導，“不要犯罪欺騙說謊”，惡人卻說，“不，我選擇犯罪欺騙說謊”。這樣他就是在定自己的罪，以後定他的罪的證據就是在此。 主耶穌說： 你們不要論斷人，就不被論斷。因爲你們怎樣論斷人，就必怎樣被論斷。你們用什麽量器量給人，就必用什麽量器量給你們。你們不要定人的罪，就不被定罪。你們要饒恕人，就必蒙饒恕。 你們可以在網上搜尋【聖經】來讀，建議從“約翰福音”讀起。或這里有一個 cut.ibibles.net/ 無論你生活中有什麽困難，煩惱，壓力，你就向主耶穌禱告祈求，祂一定會聽你的禱告。在人是不能，在神凡事都能。 【神原是我們的父親，是祂創造了我們，我們要回頭承認祂，借著信從主耶穌基督承認祂。世人啊，該醒過來了。】

But I went with my girlfriend though.” “…why’s your every sentence gotta end with ‘though’, though?” 有些人喜欢每句话都用actually，虽然句子说的是很平铺直叙的东西。“-what is the name of your cat? -her name is actually Lily” This Old House里的Tom Silva师傅就是出了名的这么说话。

首先我完全同意要说一口礼貌的英语/外语这个观点，其实不单单是语言，行为举止也是，尤其是我做国外市场工作的，天天和外国人打交道，这点我完全同意。缺乏对社交礼仪的认知，其实是中国人的通病，不单单表现在说外语上。我在国外多年，在行为举止上，遇到很多让自己无语的同胞。这点我觉得我们可以改善的空间挺大的。 另外，我想说的是，对别人，尤其是那个人在做自己不擅长的事情时候的一种宽容也是一种礼貌。我不会去要求一个外国人，磕磕巴巴的在用中文跟我说话的时候，要特别符合我们的表达习惯，因为我明白，那不是他的母语，他在尽力向我靠拢了，对他宽容一些。跟他们说话的时候，如果我发现他中文并不是太好（这个很容易识别，对方听没听懂，根本逃不过母语者的眼睛），我语速会尽可能慢一些，并且用一些他能听懂的词。我是说英语和法语的，跟很多母语者对话的时候，完全不会去照顾你一下，语速飞快（尤其是法语，连音连诵比英语更多），并且会用一些俚语，或者非常口语化的表达，听起来很费劲。当然我不是要求人家一定要照顾你，单纯说这个现象而已。
