There’s rhythm in writing! 🎶
這個禮拜Presentality的Andrew來分享英文寫作的節奏!
★★★★★★★★★★★★
我的工作需要看非常多的英文。
其中有英文母語的人寫的，也有非母語的人寫的。最近，我注意到一個兩者之間很明顯的差別。這個差別很少有人提到，因為它無關文法正確，也不是有學問的用語，或是文雅的詞彙。
是句子的長短。
Well，更正確的來說，是長句跟短句的交錯。我發現，非母語人士寫的英文句子，不但比英文母語的人寫的長，而且是大部分句子都很長。
母語的人，尤其是很會寫的人，則是會把長句跟短句混合搭配。
那又怎樣？
★★★★★★★★★★★★
你可能會說 ok，以英文為母語的人比較會用短的句子，那又怎樣？句子的長短，跟我寫作的好壞，有關嗎？
關係可大了。
就像音樂，或是影片，文字也是「內容」。只要是「內容」，就有它的節奏。你可以想像一首曲子，從頭到尾都是很長的音，而且一點變化都沒有嗎？或是一部很長的影片，從頭到尾都是很長的畫面，而且一點節奏的變化都沒有嗎？
Well actually，你應該可以想像，這些就是要幫助我們睡眠的。
如果你不想要你的讀者覺得無聊或甚至睡著，我建議適度變換你文字的節奏。
但我們先看案例。
我拿一篇台灣人寫的文，跟另一篇美國人寫的，來做比較：把每個句子都分拆成不同的段落，句子的長短就一目了然了。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
但我們先看案例。
我拿一篇台灣人寫的文，跟另一篇美國人寫的，來做比較：把每個句子都分拆成不同的段落，句子的長短就一目了然了。
📌 台灣案例：Taipei Times Opinion
1. The TAIEX last month rose above 17,000 points as rallies in steel, shipping and some non-tech stocks offset a weakness in semiconductor and electronics stocks.
2. While news about a cluster of local COVID-19 infections connected with China Airlines cargo pilots and a hotel in Taoyuan fueled selling pressure early this month and pushed the local stock market into consolidation mode, the daily market turnover in the first two trading sessions of this month hit fresh highs.
3. Moreover, Taiwan’s stock trading volume last month began to surpass that of Hong Kong for the first time in 15 years, which was beyond most market participants’ expectations.
4. Taiwan’s daily market turnover exceeding Hong Kong’s might gradually become a new normal from this year, and there are good reasons for this.
5. First, Hong Kong’s stock market has lost its appeal to foreign investors since China last year imposed national security legislation on the territory, triggering a potential flight of capital and talent.
6. Second, many wealthy Taiwanese tend to park their overseas funds in Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Switzerland and the US, but government statistics showed that more than 80 percent of funds repatriated by wealthy individuals last year were from Hong Kong, as they saw the political situation in the territory worsen after its self-governance, human rights and freedom of speech were further suppressed.
7. Third, China’s new NASDAQ-style stock board — the Shanghai Stock Exchange’s STAR board — has emerged as a fast-growing capital markets center for Chinese companies at a time when rising China-US tensions have triggered concerns about their prospects of listing in New York, posing a growing challenge to the Hong Kong stock exchange.
8. On the other hand, Taiwan’s economic fundamentals, the central bank’s adoption of extraordinary monetary easing and the government’s fiscal policies have fueled continued rallies in the nation’s stock market since last year.
9. It might be too early to tell how long the consolidation trend might last, as a resurgent COVID-19 outbreak is coloring the global economic outlook, but some insight can be drawn from the stock market:
10. Taiwan’s GDP grew a larger-than-expected 8.16 percent in the first quarter, as exports and private investment remained healthy.
都是一堆很長的句子對不對？我們來看美國人寫的句子，也是一個主流媒體的 opinion 文。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
📌 美國案例：New York Times Opinion
1. I miss torturing Liz Cheney.
2. But it must be said that the petite blonde from Wyoming suddenly seems like a Valkyrie amid halflings.
3. She is willing to sacrifice her leadership post — and risk her political career — to continue calling out Donald Trump’s Big Lie.
4. She has decided that, if the price of her job is being as unctuous to Trump as Kevin McCarthy is, it isn’t worth it, because McCarthy is totally disgracing himself.
5. It has been a dizzying fall for the scion of one of the most powerful political families in the land, a conservative chip off the old block who was once talked about as a comer, someone who could be the first woman president.
6. How naïve I was to think that Republicans would be eager to change the channel after Trump cost them the Senate and the White House and unleashed a mob on them.
7. I thought the Donald would evaporate in a poof of orange smoke, ending a supremely screwed-up period of history.
8. But the loudest mouth is not shutting up.
9. And Republicans continue to listen, clinging to the idea that the dinosaur is the future.
10. “We can’t grow without him,” Lindsey Graham said.
📌 Note: 即使是比較長的句子，這位作者也會用標點符號拆散它：She is willing to sacrifice her leadership post — and risk her political career — to continue calling out Donald Trump’s Big Lie. 這就好比用句點一樣，讓我們讀起來有點停頓休息的時間。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
📌 注意到了嗎？
台灣人寫的英文，句子都偏長，而且長度都差不多。
美國人寫的就不一樣了：一個只有五個字的句子開頭，然後一堆稍微長一點的句子，然後再來一串短句。
你可能懷疑我故意挑選很極端了例子出來，而且幹嘛專門打台灣人呢？
所以想到這裡，我從我的書架上，隨便挑了兩本跟科技有關的書出來。左邊的，是美國人，矽谷知名投資人 Peter Thiel。右邊的是德國人，但注意了，是一個英文非常好的德國人。他不但是世界經濟論壇的創辦人，研究所也是在哈佛大學唸的。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
📌 兩本書 Introduction 是怎麼寫的？
Klaus Schwab (德國)：
Of the many diverse and fascinating challenges we face today, the most intense and important is how to understand and shape the new technology revolution, which entails nothing less than a transformation of humankind.
We are at the beginning of a revolution that is fundamentally changing the way we live, work, and relate to one another.
In its scale, scope and complexity, what I consider to be the fourth industrial revolution is unlike anything humankind has experienced before.
Peter Thiel (美國)：
Whenever I interview someone for a job, I like to ask this question: "What important truth do very few people agree with you on?"
The question sounds easy because it's straightforward.
Actually, it's very hard to answer.
It's intellectually difficult because the knowledge that everyone is taught in school is by definition agreed upon.
See the difference?

ご視聴ありがとうございます！
English comment is after Japanese.
秦基博さんの「デイドリーマー」をカバーさせていただきました。
この曲は5thアルバム「青の光景」に収録されています。
大東建託のCM曲（2015年）にも採用されていました。
コードがくっていたり、逆に、メロがくっていたりと、ストロークのタイミングが難しい箇所もありますが、基本のリズムを意識して練習すれば、弾き語れるようになると思います。
（ちなみに「くう」の正式な音楽用語は「アンティシペーション（先行）」と言うそうです）
あと、Cメロ(02:46-03:10)のキーが高いのはわかってはいたんですが、考えていた以上に声が出なくて、思った通りに歌えませんでした💦
加えて、今回はハモりもリードもありません。。。💦💦
拙いカバーですが、この動画が皆さんのカバーのご参考になれば幸いです。
※原曲はこちら！

Thank you so much for watching!
I did a cover of "Daydreamer" by Motohiro Hata.
This is included in 5th album "Ao no koukei(The sight of blue)".
Also, this was a commercial song of "Daito Kentaku" in 2015.
There is an anticipation of some chords, on the contrary, there is an anticipation of melody, too.
So, in some part of stroke timing is difficult, however, I think that you'll be able to play if you practice to be aware of basic rhythm.
Also, I well understood that bridge's key is high(02:46-03:10), but I lost my singing voice than I thought, so I could not sing well💦
Additionally, in this time, there is no chorus and lead guitar...💦💦
Although my unskilled cover, I hope this video will help for your guitar cover.
Thanks my friends!
*The original song is here!

The Charlotte Hornets put the Philadelphia 76ers away with a timely switch to a zone defense.
After blowing a 19-point lead, Charlotte went to a zone defense that stopped a Philadelphia spurt and helped lift the Hornets to a 94-85 victory Wednesday night.
"It got them out of their rhythm when they were making their charge," Hornets coach Paul Silas said.
Lee Nailon had a career-high 27 points, Baron Davis added 19 points, P.J. Brown had 15 points and 13 rebounds, Elden Campbell had 12 points and 10 rebounds and David Wesley also had 12 points for the Hornets, who snapped a two-game losing streak.
Allen Iverson led Philadelphia with 38 points on 13-of-30 shooting. Aaron McKie had 17 points and Derrick Coleman and Dikembe Mutombo each grabbed 12 rebounds for the 76ers, who had a two-game winning streak snapped and have lost eight of their last 10.
"We weren't getting stops so they could play zone," Iverson said. "Guys are not attacking, not taking the ball to the basket."
A jumper by Wesley as the shot clock buzzer sounded gave the Hornets a 90-84 lead with 1:09 left in the game. On the ensuing possession by Philadelphia, Campbell blocked a runner floater by Iverson, leading to layup by Nailon to put the game away.
After a fast-break dunk by Nailon gave Charlotte a 79-68 lead early in the fourth quarter, the 76ers scored 10 straight, including eight by Iverson to close to 79-78 with 7:21 left. The Hornets then scored the next five, including two on free throws after Mutombo and Iverson were whistled for technicals during the same play, to go ahead 84-78 with 6:15 remaining.
The Hornets broke open a 64-64 tie in the third quarter by scoring 13 of the last 17 points of the quarter, with Nailon making three baskets in the final minute as Charlotte took a 77-68 lead. Charlotte's zone defense allowed the Sixers to making just three baskets in the final seven minutes of the quarter.
"(The zone) really worked well," Wesley said. "We got them to stand around and take jump shots and when they did try to drive the lane we closed up the middle."
The first half consisted of two very different quarters. Charlotte outscored the Sixers 38-21 in the first quarter, thanks to 59 percent shooting (17-of-29) and a 16-6 rebounding advantage.
Philadelphia came back strong in the second quarter, rebounding from a 19-point deficit and scoring 26 of the last 35 points of the half to pull to 55-53 at halftime. Iverson had 13 points and was 4-of-7 from the field in the quarter.
明けましておめでとうございます！動画をアップするのがかなり久しぶりになりました。加えて、昨夏、予期せず水泳しちゃったとき（つまり「カヌー転覆事故」）に、いつも使っていたビデオカメラが他界してしまったので、新しいカメラを購入して画質の向上を図ってみましたが、いかがでしょうか。
2019年の初動画として、あいみょん「君はロックを聴かない」を英語で歌ってみました。この歌の解釈については、ある男性の視点から描かれたストーリーで、好意を寄せている年下の女性に対し、青春の頃聴いていた音楽やレコードを紹介する形で、お互いの距離を縮めようと努力する恋愛をイメージして訳しました。Enjoy♪

歌詞／LYRICS
～♪～♪～♪～♪～♪～
You look a little lonely and a little blue
Come here and let me play this song for you
Follow my lead and clap in time
To this simple little surprise
I’ll give it everything that I have
Upon the dusty record spinning round and round
Lost dreams from long ago are dancing now
I drop the needle with a solemn touch
You don't need to hold your breath so much
Come over and have a seat with me
The rhythm of my youth with a warm pleasant crackle starts to play
And we can dance to the cool and laid back melody
And even though I know that rock-n-roll ain’t what you listen to
I just want for you to grow a little closer to me
Even though I know that rock-n-roll ain’t what you’re used to hearin’
These old tunes are the ones I know, melodies that helped me grow
Saw me through the aches and joys of love
My heart is palpitating in time with the beat
A steady BPM of 190
Can you hear it pounding loud?
Why are you smiling at me now?
Until my eyes start shifting bashfully
The rhythm of my youth carries on like everything is the same
As I look into your eyes and the air starts to change
And even though I know that rock-n-roll ain’t what you listen to
I just want for you to grow a little closer to me
Even though I know that rock-n-roll ain’t what you’re used to hearin’
These old tunes are the ones I know, melodies that helped me grow
That once upon a time I fell in love to
And even though I know that rock-n-roll ain’t what you listen to
I just want for you to grow to love me like I love you
Even though I know that rock-n-roll ain’t what you’re used to hearin’
These old tunes are the ones I know, melodies that helped me grow
And now that make me ache with love again
君はロックなんか聴かないと思いながら
少しでも僕に近づいてほしくて
ロックなんか聴かないと思うけれども
僕はこんな歌であんな歌で
恋を乗り越えてきた
恋を乗り越えてきた
