[時事英文] 美國阿札爾部長的「Tsai總統」發音！

Is this whole discussion really about diplomatic courtesy and English pronunciation, or is it just another ploy to attract media attention?

這些「發音的討論」是基於外交禮節、英文的發音亦或只是獲得媒體關注的手段？

Probably all three? A better way to improve public image might be to invest more in community service, connect with the constituency, and cultivate new talents.

1. diplomatic courtesy 外交禮節
2. ploy 計謀、策略、手段
3. lift public image 提升形象
4. community service 社區服務
5. constituency 選區；選區的選民
6. new talents 新秀

也許以上皆是? 提升公眾形象更好的途徑可以是透過投入社區服務、增加與選民的互動以及培養有潛力的新秀。

Focus on issues that count, not make petty arguments.

Under President Trump, the United States has expressed our admiration for Taiwan’s democratic success in tangible ways.

Taiwan’s response to COVID-19 has been among the most successful in the world, and that is a tribute to the open, transparent, democratic nature of Taiwan’s society and culture. Taiwan had tremendous success in detecting COVID-19, managing the outbreak, and sharing this valuable information with other nations.

讓我們聚焦於有意義的議題，免去枝微末節。

我在騎車的時候，打開了自己習慣的音樂播放軟體，當時就播了這首歌，聽她唱第一句，這個人的音色也太特別了，有種不是正統美國腔的發音，然後進入到副歌，她音色搭配著bass，跟鼓，太好聽了吧！
馬上回家製作這首歌的Cover，也是我第一次以英文的方式cover歌曲，還有填詞英文的RAP，也是想挑戰自己，除了經由cover讓不同的族群看見我，也是想從中繼續努力學習關於歌唱或是饒舌，希望你們會喜歡不一樣的我。

RAP的歌詞提到，我是亞洲人，亞洲人好像在國外人的眼中，就是『害羞』其實我們不是害羞，因為從小整個環境就告訴我們要懂得『禮義廉恥』以及尊重別人，所以更希望讓國外人知道這是我們的文化，也是我們迷人的地方。

近期希望在影片加入一些舞蹈，你們覺得可以嗎？
有什麼歌推薦也可以告訴我，喜歡幫我分享下去！謝謝。

According to information on the Internet, Tones And I, a 19-year-old super female newcomer from Australia, has been smashed by Dance Monkey. Recently, Dance Monkey has won the 12-week championship on the Australian Singles Chart (ARIA). Also stayed on the Irish Singles Chart (IRMA) for an eight-week championship, breaking the unprecedented record in both places. The UK Chart has a good three-week championship. It is followed by Lil Nas. After X), the most highly regarded newcomers.

When I was cycling, I turned on the music playing software I used to. I broadcast the song at the time and listened to her singing the first sentence. This person’s voice is too special. There is a kind of pronunciation that is not the orthodox American cavity, and then enters. To the chorus, her tone is matched with bass, with the drum, so nice!
Going home to make the song of Cover, it is also my first time to cover songs in English, as well as RAP in English. I also want to challenge myself. In addition to letting different groups see me through cover, I also want to continue to work hard to learn about it. Singing or rap, I hope you will like me differently.

The lyrics of RAP mentioned that I am Asian. Asians seem to be "shy" in the eyes of foreigners. In fact, we are not shy, because we have to tell us that we have to respect the others, so we hope to let the country Outsiders know that this is our culture and our charming place.

I hope to add some dances to the film in the near future. Do you think it is ok?
Any song recommendation can also tell me, like to help me share it! Thank you.

這一首音樂的身材很好!孤島梨幫之後變成怎麼樣呢?【中正嘻研社CCU Hip-Hop 2020 Cypher - 欸你過來一Shot】

Wesley: good style. Nice change ups and really good cadence. Also very strong stage presence, although his outfit looks kind of college nerdy but it works for him. Needs to change up his style so that he stands out more. The dancing needs more work, feels like he’s trying to hard and some shots but that’s OK because they’re college kids.


羅福公：really good. Strong stage presence and strong emoting. Excellent incorporation of Japanese, Chinese, and English. Although, some of the English pronunciation was way off even in the name of trying to make things rhyme. Aside from that his style is cool and not much to really improve. Dresses like a deep-sea fisherman from the movie life aquatic with Steve Zissou

Third guy: technically really decent rapper. Although the drunken/lazy Mumble rap tongue rhyme scheme has been done better by 蛋頭. Really liked the HAM part towards the end, but the incorrect incorporation of hip-hop lingo and lines from other popular American rap songs(Migos) was a bit off putting. Also most of the English is mispronounced.

Gfate: I didn’t get what you were trying to do at all. Are you rapping? Ranting? Mumbling? Nice voice tho.

Fifth Guy: Really dig his swag. His voice is deep and smooth. LIke the elongation style and his rhyming style just sways. Rapping style is very musical. Sounds like an instrument. Very confident and natural in front of the camera.


Kerrita: Nice singing voice but sometimes out of tune. Usage of pitch correction is pretty obvious. The English took me out. Also her jazz singing style doesn’t really match the song. Too much vibrato and execution of syncopation wasn’t precise. However, the rap was really good. I’d like to hear her rap more. Score: 3.0

As a Group: If you’re going to rep your school/present yourself as a crew, then you need to have some overall theme(dress, swag, etc) that presents you as a team. This video feels like random people came together for one project, but they don’t really know each other or have chemistry. Find something that makes your school/group unique and exploit it.
