「早點睡」的英文怎麼說?
超喜歡在Cambly和Olivia聊天練英文!
因為我都會搜集一些英文小問題一次問她!
今天聊到我在影集裡看到女朋友對男朋友說:
I want to lay low tonight. 中文翻譯是:我今晚想早點睡
但其實lay low不是早點睡喔!
只是想要「安靜獨處」的意思,
但因為女朋友說這句話的時候是晚上了,
所以稍微可以理解為要「早點睡」。
正確用法可以是:
I don't feel like going out today, I just want to lay low for the whole weekend.
我今天不想出門,我這週末只想待在家一整天!
後來聊到「要早點睡覺」的其他種說法,
除了大家很熟悉的"go to bed early"以外,
她說她自己會用"turn in early"
Ex:
I'm gonna turn in early tonight. 我今天打算早點睡。
但Olivia提醒我,「習慣上」turn in只用在「自己」喔,比如說,
比較少聽到叫別人早點睡會說:You should turn in early tonight.
就是單純「習慣」囉!有時沒有為什麼....
其他和睡覺相關的還有:
我要去睡覺了:I'm gonna grab some zzzzs.
I'm gonna get some sleep.
我今天要補眠:I'm gonna catch up on some sleep today.
你也到Cambly找一個老師,實際練練看、講講看吧!

当一对夫妻要做 #IVF试管疗程时,做丈夫的应该用什么态度来面对?常常有网友告诉我说,我的老公精子不好,可是他还是不能戒烟戒酒,好不配合。要知道,不孕症不只是女人的责任,男人也是有责任。这篇文章,是以男人的角度出发,里面分享身为丈夫应该如何帮助太太一起度过疗程,文章是英文内容,是奥莉爸爸写的,奥莉爸不会中文。分享给大家😊
IVF Journey, A Husband’s Perspective
Hi all, before reading further I would like to say this is NOT an instruction or tips for IVF and hopefully readers will understand my poorly written English. This is my journey as a father of the IVF baby girl. Why am I sharing all this? It is because my wife had a Facebook page of her IVF journey at https://facebook.com/ivfjourney2015/ and she told me that majorities (not all but most) feedback indicate husband not supportive enough to commit into a journey of IVF. I’m not a true supportive husband either, least I made up my mind to make it happen.
Let’s start with “Why IVF?”
We went for a fertilization test and results with;
Husband: Teratospermia (Human language, sperm is weak for fertilization process)
Wife: Unexplained infertility (I think this is easy to understand, there is for the confirming reason for this result and we don’t go for further test after it because it will consumes too much time and money)
We married and planned to have children late 2011, both our ages were 37 in 2015 because of late marriage. My wife introduced IVF because she does not want to give up and feels regretful in future and so do I. Maybe because I did too many regretful things in the past, now I do not want this happened to my wife. At least I do it better then ignoring it.
Preparation for IVF
Financially, I know it will involve amount of 20k – 30k “Ringgit Malaysia” in the whole process depending on the situation and this is only one chance for me. I don’t have the money for a second attempt because I need to allocate funds for delivery if success.
Mentally, I do some studies/research on IVF. The whole journey took 50 days and in one of the process my wife needs to do a self-injection daily. I quickly asked my wife “Daily injection?! Do I need to fetch you to clinic daily to do this?” She answered “No, we need to do this ourselves”. A final question from me going to be “How?!” After we sat down and discuss, we comes into conclusion and I will do the injection for her. This was the most painful and nervous moment I ever experience by poking a needle to my wife’s belly EVERYDAY!
Lifestyle, 6 months earlier. My wife told me the NO’s, NO alcohol NO smoking NO midnight wandering NO stress. I said, I will fly up to the skies like butterfly if I able to do all the NO’s. It’s like a mission impossible. How can a man like me not go out to social with friends without alcohol and smoke? The joke was sleeping early! You want me to social with my friends in breakfast or lunch time? At this time, she softly said “I really wants to have a cute baby in future, it looks more like a family. Furthermore, I don’t want to have regretful moments in future”. All these words came out of my love (wife), her words melted in my heart deeply. I told her “Ok, we will go for it BUT you will need to promise me ONE IMPORTANT thing. No matter the process success or not we only have one attempt we need to accept the truth and live happily without regret in future.” she agreed.
Commitment, this is not some empty promise. I made a huge commitment to change my lifestyle into zero alcohol, tobacco and lesser stress. If comparing the pain and suffers my wife will take in this journey e.g., injection, medication effects, hormone changes and all the effects from pregnancies to delivery, mine looks more alike small potatoes (looks much more simple). Trust me guys, don't compare it, if you do and more likely you're going loose badly. For the sake of making a better future, I had fulfilled this commitment.
IVF Journey Phase 1 “Unskilled Husband Injection”
Day 1, doctor consults us for Buserelin injection. I need to inject this medication into my wife's belly each day sharp at 8AM. The nurse had guided me side by side to do the first injection.
Day 2, I started my first injection to my wife's belly without anyone guiding beside. Feels a bit nervous because this time I'm doing it all by myself. I try to hum some music to distract my wife's from looking at the needle while injecting but still she is looking at it.
Day 3 - Day 15, sometime the injection hurting and causes bleeding/bruise to her. I need to find a new spot to inject every time and sees her bruise makes my pain in the heart too. My injection skills improved dramatically. She even told me that she doesn't feel pain like the beginning stages.
Day 16, follow up 2nd checkup. Doctor said, everything goes smoothly and added another medication to inject called Gonal-F to take home and start injecting on day 23. This message never surprises me because I've been told earlier, but just that the price to pay for this medication is quite costly.
Day 17 - Day 22, nothing much on these days and we just stick on the plan as usual.
IVF Journey Phase 2 “Stressful Night”
Day 23, Gonal F injections start today. This needle doesn't look same as those earlier, it comes with medication in it and look like a pen.
Day 24 - Day 26, side effects of the Gonal F medications started. My wife is feeling irritation at the injection site, fullness, bloating and tenderness in the lower abdomen due to the increasing size of the ovaries. Her mood changes dramatically as I can tell, but she endures it and tell me she can handle it.
Day 27, follow up 3rd checkup. Doctor said wife has eggs total of 12 and is ready for Transvaginal oocyte retrieval "Human language, Egg retrieval" at day 31.
Day 28 - Day 29, final injection of Gonal F. At day 29 night, I inject Ovidrel to wife belly to that causes the growth and release of a mature egg (ovulation) for day 31.
Day 30, resting whole day. Finally, we had a day without injection and worrying about holding any needles. Today we wondering about the egg growth, not knowing will the eggs grow more or still the same amount of 12.
Day 31, egg retrieval. 8 egg success retrieves and I give out my sperm for oocytes selection on the same day. Wife given cyclogest for oval protection after the egg retrieval.
IVF Journey Phase 3 “Hopeful Embryo Culture & Embryo Transfer”
Day 32 - Day 35, rest at home. We had pillow talk every night concerning about the growth of an embryo. We also look at sample growth stages of an embryo from the web to see what the current growth stage is.
Day 36, another hopeful and nervous morning. Doctor tells us the result of embryo culture as below;
Total Embryo Retrieve: 8
Embryo Qualified for ICSI: 6
Embryo Success until Cleavage Stage (Day 2 – Day 4): 3
Embryo Success until Blastocyst Stage (Day 5): 2
Embryo Qualified / Recommended for Transfer: 1
Both our eyes looked at each other, knowing only 1 Blastocyst Embryo available to transfer and doctor tell the same after it. I really do not know how to express both our feelings into words here, as we expected to have at least 2 Blastocyst out of 8 embryos and only left 1. We both agreed to proceed this only 1 Blastocyst transfer as this is the only choice we had. It's more likely walking on a 100ft tall string with no supports mission, a single error will fail the mission.
After the transfer process, wife given a room to rest for few hours. A nurse came and give us adjunctive medications, injections and advice while resting at room.
IVF Journey Phase 4 “The Final Moment of IVF”
Day 37 - Day 49, after the transfer. This period is known as 2WW (2 Weeks Wait) with adjunctive medications, injections and be very careful. I just let her sleep/rest more on the bed, I served her every meal in the room. We're also nervous and curious about pregnancy results on day 44, we tested with cheap pregnancy tester and get got a double line on it and we do have a little hope and joy with this result. On day 47, again we test, but this time with expensive pregnancy tester and the results double line again! We're so hopeful and happy at this moment. We really hope this result is true until the next checkup.
Day 50, final checkup. My wife goes for the hCG test by giving a sample of blood, we waited 2 hours for the results. While waiting, nurse guide us to a room to rest. Wife slept and I sat beside concerned on the hCG test results. 2 hours later, the doctor invited us to look for him. Before doctor speaks, while we are sitting down, my wife's eyes were starring in the hCG results number and she spotted the hCG number is 452. She smiles happily while doctor tells her "You are pregnant and congratulations! Come back after 2 weeks to scan for baby heartbeats. And please go out to the counter and ring the bell!”
Just Sharing My Thoughts
By all means, I’m not bragging about my success. I would like to say if anyone is planning on IVF, teamwork is very important and husband play a very important role to increase the success rate. Sometimes, I do feel like a spectator than a participant myself because I never experience any of the medical exams but this is not true. Every injection I put on her belly, I feel the pain in my heart as bad as she has on the belly. Ok, nothing much to share in this IVF journey and next time I might be sharing another journey as a Father!

【 V媽碎碎唸 】Little Bean
在網路上發現一個很令人深思的繪本,想跟大家分享(也許有人已看過),不過因為分享該繪本的網站我認為有版權的疑慮,所以這邊就不公開連結了,僅摘錄繪本中的英文文字,試著自己翻譯出來與大家分享,並儘量提供繪本資訊以維護作者與出版社的權益。
這是一個將近二十年的老繪本,如果大家熟悉英國繪本的話,有一位作家叫John Wallace,他的畫風很童心、內容常以兩歲孩子為第一人稱的描述,John Wallace有一套小荳荳系列,非常的經典可愛!小荳荳(Little Bean)是個正在學步期的小女孩, 心思敏感纖細,常綁著兩個小沖天炮走來走去,對這世界充滿了無比的好奇,一連串描述小小孩世界的探索繪本用舒服的水彩表現,淡淡柔和地勾勒出小荳荳的世界,有 Little Bean’s Friend(小荳荳的朋友)、Little Bean’s Holiday(小荳荳的假期)..等,上誼文化也曾經出版過小荳荳的中文版『小荳荳的生活故事』,不過V媽還沒機會讀過上誼的這套譯本,所以不知道裡面有沒有我今天要分享的內容,若您要購買前請先確認。
其中有一本 Little Bean(小荳荳)是今天要跟大家分享的,不得不說在前頭,這本Little Bean 是本『不太適合小孩子讀,比較適合給爸媽思考的故事』啊!
作者:John Wallace
出版社:Harpercollins Childrens Books
ISBN:9780694008537
-- 故事開始 --
爸爸正在看電視,荳荳拿著一本書問爸爸:爸爸,請你念一本故事書給我聽好嗎?
(Please can I have a story ?)
爸爸:小荳荳,不要現在好嗎?爸爸好累喔~[ 小荳荳握著書、看著爸爸的背影上樓 ]
(Not now, Little Bean. Your father is tired.)
[ 小荳荳乖乖在工作的爸爸身邊玩著、等著 ] 爸爸:出去外面玩,爸爸在忙
(Come away. Your father is busy.)
媽媽:爸爸明天要去出差
(He has to go away tomorrow.)
荳荳睡前一邊刷牙一邊想:那爸爸出門前會念本故事給我聽嗎?
(Will he read me a story before he goes? )
媽媽告訴荳荳:如果你趕緊睡著...[ 荳荳把故事書放在被子上,趕緊睡著 ]
(Only if you are awake.)
[ 早上起床了,荳荳緊抓著故事書下樓 ] 爸爸呢?爸爸在哪裡?
(Where is Daddy ?)
媽媽說:親愛的寶貝,爸爸很早就出門了,他將會非常忙碌...
[ 荳荳手抓著書、臉掛著一滴淚、低頭哭了起來,連身邊的小狗都忍不住安慰她 ]
(He had to go early darling. He is going to be very busy.)
好吧,那我也來『忙』好了![ 荳荳瞬間自立自強了起來 ]
(Well, I can be busy too.)
忙忙忙!(Busy! Busy! Busy! )
荳荳忙著玩球(Busy playing ball.)
荳荳忙著吃午餐(Busy having lunch.)
荳荳忙著假裝打電話(Busy answering the phone.)
荳荳忙著餵魚(Busy feeding Oscar.)
荳荳忙著玩(Busy playing.)
荳荳忙著刷牙(Busy brushing my teeth.)
荳荳忙著跟小狗說晚安(Busy saying good night.)
忙碌的一天結束了,荳荳睡覺前還是忍不住望著窗外想:『我的爸爸在哪裡呢?』
(But at the end of the day she said,” I wonder where my Daddy is? ” )
小荳荳的爸爸真的很忙 (Little Bean’s daddy was busy.)
爸爸忙著開會 (Busy at meetings.)
爸爸忙著吃一餐 (Busy eating.)
爸爸忙著打電話 (Busy phoning.)
爸爸忙著閱讀文件 (Busy reading.)
爸爸忙著寫東西 (Busy writing.)
爸爸忙著準備睡覺 (Busy getting ready for bed.)
爸爸忙著刷牙 (Busy brushing his teeth.)
忙碌的一天結束了,爸爸坐在書桌前忍不住想:『我的小荳荳現在在做什麼呢?』
(But at the end of the day he said, “ I wonder what my Little Bean is doing right now? ”)
隔天下午,爸爸在一家書店前停下腳步
(The next evening he stopped at a bookshop.)
[ 爸爸幫小荳荳買了一袋又一袋的故事書,下雪的夜裡,爸爸懸念著小荳荳,腳邊放著好多帶送給小荳荳的書,招手叫計程車 ]
然後趕緊回到家 (And then he hurried home. )
[ 提著很多沈重的圖畫書回家,他好想趕緊念故事書給小荳荳聽啊!]
可是.....這時......小荳荳早已沈沈地睡去....
(Little Bean was fast asleep. )
-- 故事結束 --
親愛的爸爸媽媽呀,好好全心全意的陪伴我們的孩子讀完一本書、好好吃一頓愉快的晚餐吧!別讓我們的寶貝在我們的『總是忙碌』中抱著期待而來、又一次次抱著失望離開,再怎麼忙碌,也要仔細看一下我們身邊的小人兒,他每天都在慢慢的長大...與其用很多的物質去彌補和孩子間的情感斷層,還不如每天抽個幾分鐘的時間好好和寶貝擁抱、聊天、一起唸本書吧!
