Hi my name is Rebecca and in today's lesson we're going to talk about how you can expand your vocabulary
大家好，我是Rebecca，今天我们将学习如何拓展你的词汇
whether it's your general vocabulary or your business vocabulary with using a very easy technique whereby
不论是普通词汇还是商务词汇，你都可以使用这种非常简单的技巧，
by learning one word you actually learn three words each time at least three words, okay? So the strategy is this.
由一个单词举一反三拓展到至少三个单词。下面我们来学习这个简单的技巧。
The point is that the most difficult part of vocabulary building is actually learning the word and attaching the meaning to the word,
词汇积累最困难的部分是学习这个单词并与其含义相匹配，
so the hard part is when you're trying to understand and remember the meaning of the word,
因此，理解并记忆这个单词的意思是困难部分，
once you understand that, it becomes much easier for you to expand your vocabulary by learning not only that word but a few other words that are in that family of words.
你只要学会这个技巧，要拓展词汇就非常容易了，这样你将学到的就不仅是一个而是这些单词所有的词群中的几类单词。
Now I put on the board just three that you could use as part of the family of words.
看黑板上的单词，我们将从这些单词中另外延展出3类，作为该单词词群的一部分。
Let's look at what they are. We have the verb, we have the person now for the word and we have the activity now. So let's look at some specific examples.
我们来看看会延伸出哪几类词汇，首先，黑板上的是动词，我们可以延伸出表人名词以及表物的名词。下面我们来看几个例子。
Let's take the first word 'manage' okay? 'Manage' is the verb, the person now for manage is 'manager' and the activity of managing is called 'management'.
第一个单词‘经营’。‘经营’是动词，表人的名词形式是‘经理’，表物名词是‘经营’。
So you learn not only the word 'manage' but the word 'manager' and the word 'management'. Manage, manager, management, you've now learned three words instead of just one.
这样你所学到的就不止‘经营’一词，还有‘经理’和‘经营’，你所学到的就是三个单词而非一个。
Let's take the next example 'sell, seller, sales, okay? The next one 'advertise, advertiser, advertisement or advertising', if you're talking about the fields.
看下一个例子，‘卖’、‘卖家’和‘销售’。下一个例子是‘做广告’、‘广告’或如果你在谈论这个领域的话，就是‘广告业’。
Let's take the next one 'consume'. To consume something means to use it, we are all 'consumers',right? people who use up various items, 'consume, consumer, consumption'.
让我们看看下个单词‘消费’。消费意味着使用某物，我们都是‘消费者’，对不？人们消耗各种商品，因此延伸词为：‘消费、消费者、消费品’。
Let's look at the next one 'employ'. Employ, what's the person now, employer or employee and the noun is employment.
来看下个单词‘雇用’。表人的名词是雇主或雇员，名词形式为雇用。
'Operate', person, operator, now activity now operation, operate, operator, operation.
‘经营’、表人‘经营者’，表物‘营业’。三个单词分别为“经营、经营者以及营业。
Produce, producer, right? production, very good. You can do these along with me okay? Develop, developer, development.
‘生产、生产者以及产品’。你自己也可以跟着练习，好么？‘开发、开发者、发展’。
Pay particular attention to that word, it's one of the words that's most mispronounced in many many different parts of the world,
要特别注意一下这个单词，在世界上许多不同地方，这个单词是最容易发错音的单词之一。
so again I'll review it for you: develop, developer, development, okay?
所以，仔细听我的发音：‘开发、开发者、发展’，明白了么？
Distribute, distributor, the noun activity, distribution, that's right, good. And the last one I put here just to trick you a little bit, make you think.
‘分配、经销商以及表物名词，分布’。最后一个单词，在这里，我想考考你们。
Decide is the verb, what's the person? what's the name? what's the now for the person who decides? You know?
‘决定’是动词，那么表人的名词该是什么呢？你们知道么？
Think about it for a second the person who decides is not called the decider, that person is called the decision-maker in English.
仔细想想，做决定的人不是‘decider’，而是‘decision-maker’。
That's all we have, we don't have any one word for the person who decides, they just say 'decision-maker'. She's the decision-maker, he is the decision-maker, all right?
英语中并没有其他表示做决定的人的单词，只用‘decision-maker’来称呼做决定的人。她是决策者，他是决策者，明白了么？
So decide, decision maker and the activity now decision.
因此，这里所延伸的三个单词为‘决定、决策者以及决定’。
By using this simple strategy, instead of learning, for example, 10 words on the board just now, you have learned 30 words.
通过这个简单的策略，我们所学到的不仅是黑板上的10个单词，而是30个单词。
So you can imagine if you did this every time you learn the word, your vocabulary would grow much faster than it would otherwise, okay?
所以，如果你每次学习单词时，都使用这个技巧，你的词汇也会快速拓展。
