A common day

When i opened my eyes at 7:30 or so this morning, it seems gonna to be a common sunday without doubt that filled in my previous life.
I am doing some translations these days, articles from the Economist. And there is an obituary today which is a totally new type i have ever had in hand. It's about the death of a former dictator of Paraguay who was a real terrible mammal. The obituary or it's 'monster', however, is not today's focus in this essay. And i am going to show you a discussion which somehow i was a main actor there.
A senior QQ group is the stage, which initially established by a few of people with a great passion of stranslation of Economist for borth Chinese readers and translation communications.
It's about 3:30 to almost 5 this afternoon, and an strange idea burst in my mind.

And what is below is the records from my QQ chat, which kept the whole story.
The ID "虫子" is mine in use.

高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:45:50
药用准确
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:46:01
要么就不要说
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:46:17
通常都说with you guys
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:46:26
很少对很多人说guy的
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:46:52
有男有女用一个guy不合适
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:47:37
我觉得说英语是个好事情
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:47:45
但是要求自己和别人都要准确
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:47:53
毕竟都是中国人做到地道不可能
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:48:01
但是准确却是有可能的

虫子(39252241) 15:47:52
you'd better to correct me with english if you are really good in english
吃龙猪(54758224) 15:48:07

my english is poor,thank you honesly, and deeply for your correction
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:50:03
trying to pay close heed to what you said
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:50:10
is not a simple task
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:50:15
man , but
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:50:27
you can do it in case that you want
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:51:00
it is all dependent on the words and phraises you used

高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:51:11
the more familiar, the better
虫子(39252241) 15:51:32
thank you for your suggestions
吃龙猪(54758224) 15:52:00
me too
虫子(39252241) 15:52:06
i do have made mistakes
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:52:24
however, this is very much of an energy-consuming job particularly in a one-one communication

高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:55:46
i apologize if i have been a bit offensive on the basis that i was beginning to wonder one doing this might be ruining other people's laguage structure
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:56:44
which is also why i said you should secure the accuracy of the words you used without being very being very effective
高翻难惨了(43780904) 15:57:30

you guys stay cool , i am outa here
www.56kg.com(65141324) 15:58:40
呵呵,我也去申请低保去
虫子(39252241) 15:59:27
one who don't utter his english while thirst for perfect english is a fool, that why i make a proposition. and 100% accuracy is impossible for most of us.
虫子(39252241) 16:00:24
all is about practice
虫子(39252241) 16:03:38
accuracy, who care if you are not born in an english-speaking country, true, it is better to say with a refined, elegant english, but we are learners, don't you think so?
虫子(39252241) 16:07:31
by the way, i am glad to see your statement, especially in english, but don't, don't unnerve these people just like you and me
nEo(79433965) 16:08:24
ok got it:)
虫子(39252241) 16:09:11
thank you Cap.
nEo(79433965) 16:10:21
:)
nEo(79433965) 16:10:42
没事,大家尽管联系,不怕说错,就怕不说
nEo(79433965) 16:10:47
练习练习
www.56kg.com(65141324) 16:10:53
呵呵
nEo(79433965) 16:11:18
just for fun and practice.说的不对的地方,大家共同指正。
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:12:50
this totally blows my mind

昨天是哪个兄弟问我关于百分之一原则的?
文章在这里:http://www.56kg.com/public/post/456.html
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:13:21
既然要说就说把 尽量少犯错误 否则教错了别人麻烦了
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:13:45
搞不好将来在考场上灵机一动想起某君用过的妙语写上去
nEo(79433965) 16:13:52
呵呵
nEo(79433965) 16:14:24
尽自己能力,最好从模仿开始,如电视剧或电影中的对白。
nEo(79433965) 16:14:33
这样能保证语言的准确性
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:14:43
也不知道对错 我没有别得意思, 只要单词都拼对
语法没有错误,用一些常用巨型
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:14:49
准确应该没有问题
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:14:52
至于地道
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:14:59
是中国人的就不要瞎忙活了
心远地自偏(475195908) 16:15:03
9月1日起普通高校未就业应届毕业生可申请低保
nEo(79433965) 16:15:06

高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:15:14
做同声传译的也没有见到过几个能真的地道的
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:15:24
当然追求是另外一回事
nEo(79433965) 16:15:34
毕竟咱们不是洋人,不可能说得很native
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:16:23
说英语的胆怯心理在于没有打开一个心结
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:16:34
实际上只要准确不难
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:16:48
但是大部分人都想说得跟个洋人一样
高翻难惨了(43780904) 16:17:03
最后听起来就像三句半了
nEo(79433965) 16:17:06
....
nEo(79433965) 16:17:28
很棒的比喻
nEo(79433965) 16:17:33
三句半
nEo(79433965) 16:18:28
以我学习粤语的经验来看,1 要敢说 2 不怕错 3 记住自己不是广东人,能让别人听懂就行。
虫子(39252241) 16:19:13
one reason why people can promote thier english abroad greatly, it is the touchable atmosphere there, and why we cann't have one here?
nEo(79433965) 16:19:24
这点心得也能套用到英语上。只是在中国很难找到人“说”英语。要找就找native的,这样提高很快。
nEo(79433965) 16:20:13
确实不行。一堆中国人聚在一起说英文,最后的结果可能是大家都是一口纯正的Chenglish
虫子(39252241) 16:26:21
if i can not have a perfect english.i prefer Chenglish than incapable english, for i do not have either foreign friends or chat friends who chat with english my Cap. Sometimes,when i wanna to say english ,i just can't find where he/she is.

------------------
Jesus! It gonna be tomorrow, and thank godness that i finished this today.
