大家這週好嗎？又到了週六聊英文的時候了！今天來推薦我喜歡的美劇系列吧！Sitcom 就是情境喜劇 (situation comedy)，我自己最早接觸的情境喜劇是六人行，一個經典美劇，六位角色的生活圍繞在紐約 central perk 咖啡館的故事在1994年 NBC 開播以來，連續播了十年，角色之間的火花和笑點，以及同步錄製現場觀眾的笑聲，陪伴無數人經歷人生的重要時刻，這就是 sitcom 的魅力，到現在 friends 依舊是 netflix 上的熱門節目呢！近期轟動的紀錄片式 friends reunion 《六人行：當我們又在一起》在 HBO Max 串流平台首播，甚至達到 29% 全美使用者同時觀看的超高觀看數。

💬 dialogue 2
Rachel : Oh I am so nervous about that letter. But the way you owned up to everything just show me how much you have grown.
Ross : I suppose.
Rachel : You have. Ross, you should give yourself credit. My mom never thought that this would work out. She was all “Once a cheater, always a cheater.” I just wished we hadn’t lost these four months. But if time is just what you need to gain a little perspective.
Ross : We were on a break! And for the record, it took two people to break up this relationship.
Rachel Yeah, you and that girl from the copy place, which yesterday you took full responsibility for.
Ross : I didn't know what I was taking responsibility for, okay? I didn't finish the whole letter.
Rachel : What?
Ross : I fell asleep.
*Rachel *: You fell asleep?
Ross : Yeah, it was 5:30 in the morning. And you had rambled on for 18 pages. Front and back! Oh, oh, oh. And by the way. "Y-O-U-apostrophe-R-E" means "you are." "Y-O-U-R" means "your."
Rachel : I can't believe I even thought of getting back together with you. We are so over.
Ross : Fine by me!
Rachel : Oh, and hey, hey, hey. Those spelling tips will come in handy when you're at home on Saturday nights playing Scrabble with Monica.
Rachel : I just feel bad about all that sleep you're gonna miss, wishing you were with me.
Ross : Oh, no, no. Don't you worry about me falling asleep. I still have your letter!
Rachel : And hey, just so you know, it's not that common. It doesn't happen to every guy and it is a big deal!

📈看美劇學英文：
我自己在學英語的時候，美劇真的影響我很多，我建議大家可以先享受其中，看第二遍第三遍的時候就可以嘗試開英文字幕，或是把字幕關掉練英聽，甚至不會的單字去查，看完一定功力大增，英文更像當地語言使用者喔，也是一個讀書讀累了的紓壓管道！
