嘿，米歇尔。
Hey, Michelle.
今天我们录三集怎么样？
Should we record three more episodes today?
你觉得呢？
What do you think?
好啊。
Yeah.
为什么不呢？
Why not?
那就这么定了。
Let's do it.
我们录了这么多期播客了，米歇尔，为什么不继续呢？
We record a lot of pod this podcast, so why not Michelle?
为什么不呢？
Why not?
现在是三集，要是到六集，也差不多是这个时候了。
It's three, if it's six, at at this point.
有什么区别呢？
What's the difference?
是的。
Yeah.
我们就是特别喜欢《All Ears English》这个节目。
We just love All Ears English.
我们特别享受坐在话筒后面，彼此聊天的时光。
We love being behind the mic here chatting with each other.
所以，Michelle，今天这期我们聊点什么？
So Michelle, what are we getting into on the episode today?
今天我们要聊聊，当人们说‘为什么不去做呢’的时候，他们到底是什么意思。
So today, we are going to talk about what people mean when they say, why not?
对吧？
Right?
所以当你问我今天要不要再录三集的时候，我就是这么回答你的。
So that's what I said to you when you said, should we record three more episodes today?
我说，为什么不呢？
And I said, why not?
但听起来好像并不是真的同意？
Which seems a little bit like, didn't mean yes?
我意思是不同意吗？
Did I mean no?
因为当我们在这里说‘为什么不呢’的时候，林赛，这真的是我们通常理解的那个意思吗？
Because when we say why not here, Lindsay, is it the typical way of asking like like, does it mean what we think of why not to mean?
这得看具体情况。
It depends on the context.
对。
Mhmm.
它完全可以是一个真心的同意。
It can can mean it can be a totally genuine yes.
也可能是在说‘你疯了吗？’
It can also be like, are you crazy?
也可能是讽刺的语气。
I it can be sarcastic.
在我看来，它的含义可以有很多种。
It can be a lot of things in my opinion.
你觉得呢，米歇尔？
What do you think, Michelle?
对。
Yeah.
我的意思是，通常在教科书里，我们的听众可能听过‘why not？’
I mean but I think typically in a textbook, you you know, our listeners have probably heard, why not?
他们会想，‘那我们能这么做吗？’
And they think of, oh, can we do this?
不行，为什么不呢？
No, why not?
对吧？
Right?
就是在问为什么这件事不能做。
Asking why something can't be done.
哦，为什么不能实现呢？
Oh, why can't get it?
所以这算是比较传统的方式。
So that's kind of like, would say like the traditional way.
所以我们想告诉你，‘为什么不行’其实可以很灵活，也很有趣。
So we're teaching you that why not can actually be pretty versatile and fun.
是的。
Mhmm.
对。
Yeah.
有点儿轻松有趣。
Kinda playful.
你所说的有趣，就是这个意思吗？
Is that what you mean by fun?
对。
Yeah.
特别有乐趣。
Pretty pretty playful.
这跟课本里常看到的可不太一样。
It's just not necessarily what you always see in your textbook.
没错。
So Yes.
朋友们，我们这儿教的是地道的英语。
Guys, we are giving you the real English over here.
是的。
Yes.
这是一种你平时可以用的全新方式。
And just a different way that you can use this.
因为琳赛，我跟你说这期节目要讲什么的时候，你说：‘我经常说这句话。’
Because Lindsay, you when I told you what this episode was gonna be about, you said, oh, I say this a lot.
对，我确实经常说。
I do.
我觉得我老这么说。
I feel like I do.
是的。
Yeah.
在日常生活中嘛。
In everyday life.
所以这里可能你的课本给你误导了。
So this is a place where your textbooks may have led you astray.
对吧？
Right?
或者只给了你一个特别死板的解释。
Or may have given you the very literal definition.
没错。
Right.
我们会给你展示它在文化、社会和现实生活中的实际用法。
We're going show you how it comes out in culture and society and real life.
对吧？
Right?
这里讲的是地道的英语。
Real life English here.
我们会聊聊为什么这种表达如此自然，为什么它对建立联系特别有帮助。
And we're going to talk about why it's so natural and why it can really be great for connection.
即使过了这一期，我们还可以继续探讨它在不同场景下的用法。
And even past this episode, we could continue talking about this for different contexts.
不过今天先从这里开始吧。
But let's give it a start today.

Or if you're an audio person, which is what I am, I'm more of an audio person, hit follow right there on Apple Podcast or Spotify.
明白吗？
Alright?
对。
Yeah.
为什么不呢？
Why not?
干脆点关注一下吧
Why not just hit
关注。
follow?
各位。
Guys.
好的。
Okay.
所以啊，为什么不呢？
So, yeah, why not?
它的一种用法是在特定情境下，表达一种热情的肯定。
One of the ways that it can be used is in a in a certain way, in a certain time, it can basically mean an enthusiastic yes.
这就像是在说：我们有什么理由不这么做呢？
It's it's kind of like saying, well, why wouldn't we?
或者根本找不到不做的理由。
Or there's no reason not to.
当然我们应该。
Or of course we should.
对吧？
Right?
就是这种感觉。
It's that same kind of sentiment.
你不觉得吗？
Don't you think?
对啊。
Mhmm.
是的。
Yeah.
我们可以改天再做一期，聊聊为什么不该这么做。
And we can do a different episode another day on why wouldn't we?
你为什么不呢？
Why wouldn't you?
我经常听到有人用‘construction’这个词。
I hear people using construction a lot.
对。
Mhmm.
不过这个话题可以改天再聊。
But that could come another day.
有时候，这个词是用来表示某人提出了一个不太一样的想法，有点跳出常规，对吧？
So sometimes it's used when someone is suggesting something a little different maybe, right, where it's a little out of the box.
对。
Mhmm.
所以你是在说，行啊。
So you're saying, sure.
我没问题。
I'm up for it.
我什么都愿意试试。
I'm up for anything.
对吧？
Right?
没错。
Right.
它也可能只是个简单、中性的说法，就那么回事。
It could also just be something basic, neutral, just a thing.
是的。
Yeah.
对。
Yeah.
咱们给听众演示几个小角色扮演，看看实际怎么用。
So let's let's show our listeners how this might sound with a couple little mini role plays.
好。
Yeah.
咱们回去前先去吃个冰淇淋吧？
So should we stop for ice cream before we head back?
为什么不呢？
Why not?
你最近吃了太多冰淇淋了，米歇尔。
Been eating so much ice cream lately, Michelle.
我跟你说过我参加了一个做冰淇淋的课程吗？
Did I tell you I did an ice cream making class?
没有。
No.
天哪。
Oh my gosh.
我们去当地一家奶油坊参加了做冰淇淋的课程。
We did this ice cream making class at a local creamery.
很有趣。
Fun.
真的特别有趣。
It was really fun.
他们教我们怎么调制冰淇淋基底，里面放哪些材料，然后我们可以自己加配料。
They showed us how to, you know, how to make the mix, what goes into it, and then you could put your own toppings in.
所以你可以随便往自己的冰淇淋上堆各种 toppings。
So you'd load up your own ice cream with toppings.
但问题是，上完课后，每个人居然带回家八到十夸脱的冰淇淋。
But the problem is they you left this class with, like, I think, eight, like eight quarts or 10 quarts each of ice cream.
天哪，这太夸张了。
Oh my It's safe.
我们冰箱里存了太多冰淇淋了。
We have so much ice cream in our freezer.
真的，我们俩根本吃不完这么多。
Like, we and we can't there's no way we can eat it all.
我的天。
My gosh.
等等。
Wait.
好吧。
Okay.
我得再听听。
I have to hear more.
不过我改天再听吧。
But but I'll hear more another time.
当然，还得再多来点。
Of course, more more.
但我很好奇，都是同一个口味吗？
But I I'm curious, is it all the same flavor?
是的。
Yeah.
他们那会儿有主题夜。
It so they had theme nights.
我们去的那天是巧克力主题夜。
So the night that we went to was chocolate night.
哦，这对你来说再合适不过了。
Oh, and that's perfect for you.
是的。
Yeah.
大多数受欢迎的夜晚都是香草味的。
Most of the more popular nights are vanilla nights.
我不明白为什么，但确实如此。
I don't know why, but they are.
我们这儿没有这种。
We don't get that.
对。
Yeah.
所以嘛。
So yeah.
巧克力是基底，然后你可以用他们提供的各种配料，自己搭配出喜欢的口味。
So so it's chocolate chocolate base, and then you could make your own kind of flavor with all the toppings they give you to put into your own ice cream.
我把我那份加得满满的。
I So just loaded mine up.
像本杰瑞斯那种风格，米歇尔。
Ben and Jerry's style, Michelle.
意思就是，我把它加得满满的。
Mean, I just loaded it up.
我想听听。
I wanna hear.
有什么
What's
东西？
everything?
有瑞茜花生酱杯。
Reese's Pieces.
还有奥利奥。
There's Oreo.
还有曲奇面团和白巧克力，我的意思是，真的特别棒。
There's cookie dough, white chocolate I mean, really good stuff.
是的。
Yeah.
天哪。
Oh my gosh.
所以当时他们是不是说，哦，知道吗。
So were so were they like, oh, know.
真希望你能看到。
I wish you could.
我觉得他们大概是说，哦，你还可以加这个。
So I feel like they probably said, oh, and you can add this.
也许你跟伴侣说，为什么不试试呢？
And maybe you said maybe you said to your partner, why not?
我们要不要加这个？
Should we add this?
为什么不呢？
Why not?
对吧？
Right?
我当时就是这么想的。
Well, that's how I felt.
我的意思是，他们就坐在我正对面。
I mean, they were sitting right in front of me.
我干嘛不把所有那些配料都加进去呢？
Why why wouldn't I add all those toppings in there?
我就是这样的人。
That's how I am.
我不管吃什么，哪怕是沙拉吧，也总会多拿一点。
I, I am always even at a salad bar, just put a little more.
为什么不呢？
Why not?
那就干脆算了，为什么不做呢？
Let's just Why not?
这真是把‘为什么不做’用得妙。
That's a great use of why not.
对吧？
Right?
你的态度就是：想吃就吃，别亏待自己。
It's like it's your attitude is let's indulge.
就是，干脆就这么办。
Like, let's just Right.
我手头正好有这个东西可用。
I have this thing available at my disposal.
有这么一盘花生酱巧克力，或者像你这种情况，是特别棒的奶酪，你居然要把它加到沙拉吧里。
There's this cup of peanut butter cups or whatever, in your case, like, really good cheese, and you're gonna put it on your salad bar.
对吧？
Right?
你会把它放在沙拉吧的沙拉上。
You're gonna put it on the salad at the salad bar.
是的。
Yeah.
对。
Yeah.
没错。
Exactly.
就是这样。
Exactly.
我特别喜欢这一条。
So I love that one.
好吧。
Alright.
再来看一个。
Here's another one.
不过我们也可以聊聊冰淇淋。
Although we could just talk about ice cream.
我们大可以
We'll get
为什么不呢？
Why not?
我们要不要穿牛仔裤去参加派对？
Should we just wear jeans to the party?
为什么不呢？
Why not?
毕竟他们也没说要穿什么正装。
I mean, they didn't say anything about a dress code.
是的。
Yeah.
我也会首选这么穿。
That's where I would default to as well.
你觉得要不要邀请凯拉来？
Would you consider inviting Kayla?
哦，为什么不呢？
Oh, why not?
她人特别随和。
She's super friendly.
是的。
Yeah.
这体现出一种愿意尝试新事物、不同做法的开放态度。
So it shows a sense of openness openness to trying something new, something different.
对吧？
Right?
对的。
Mhmm.
但你也可以用它来陈述发生过的事，甚至是你自己的想法。
But you can also use it to report something that happened, or even something that you think for yourself.
咱们再详细说说。
So let's explain a little more.
举个例子吧。
So here's an example.
一开始我真不想出门。
At first, I really didn't want to go out.
我都穿上睡衣了，累得不行，但后来一想，干嘛不呢？
I was already in my pajamas and so tired, but then I thought, why not?
别太拘着自己。
Live a little.
结果玩得特别开心。
It ended up being a blast.
是的。
Yes.
没错。
Yes.
是的
Yeah.
能脱下睡衣出门，这种情况可不多见。
It's rare to get out of pajamas and go out.
但有时候
But It
确实会发生。
it happens.
真的会。
Truly is.
所以呢，这个故事讲的是我当时心里的想法。
So so this is about, you know, a story that I'm telling about what was going in my mind.
林赛，你经常听到别人这么说吗？
Lindsay, do you hear people saying that a lot?
活在当下吧。
Live a little.
好好享受生活吧。
Live a little.
当然了。
For sure.
这句话真不错。
It's a good one.
这句话真不错。
It's a good one.
今天又学了个实用表达。
That's a bonus phrase for today.
就是鼓励自己或者别人抓住当下，像人们常说的那样。
Just encouraging yourself or encouraging someone else to carpe diem, as they say.
对。
Yes.
好好把握生活。
Take advantage of life.
是的。
Yes.
没错。
Exactly.
那还有别的例子吗？
Or what's another example?
我本来以为他不喜欢我，结果他约我去看电影。
I didn't think he liked me, but then he asked me to go out to the movies.
我想，不去白不去。
I thought, why not?
他人挺好的，和他在一起特别开心。
He's a nice guy, and we have so much fun together.
对啊。
Yeah.
没错。
Right.
所以你实际上是在重复自己内心的思考。
So you're you're essentially rehashing your own inner thinking here.
对。
Right.
是的。
Mhmm.
是的。
Yeah.
这里特别有意思。
It's really interesting here.
没错。
Yeah.
是的。
Mhmm.
米歇尔，这为什么有助于建立联系呢？
So Michelle, why is this good for connection?
我的意思是，当我们说‘为什么不呢’的时候，给人的感觉是什么？
I mean, what is the vibe that comes off of us when we say why not?
我觉得挺随意的。
I think it's casual.
听着还挺酷的。
It's kinda cool sounding.
而且，这也体现出一种愿意稍微随性一点的开放态度。
And also, yeah, it shows that openness to being maybe a little spontaneous.
也许吧，你知道，我从睡衣换上正装，准备去
Maybe, you know, oh, I am getting out of my pajamas and into my clothes to go
参加这个派对。
to this party.
一种开放的态度。
Openness.
对。
Yes.
对。
Yes.
我觉得人们听到这话会觉得很亲切，也更容易喜欢上你，因为这表明这个人并不固执己见。
And I think it's I think when people hear that, it's it's endearing and makes you likable because it shows that, okay, this person is not stuck in their ways.
我是说，我们上一期，第二十六集第五十期，就专门聊过这个直鼻子的问题。
I mean, we did an episode just on episode twenty six fifty about, you know, flat out nose.
对吧？
Right?
是的。
Mhmm.
我们现在谈的更多是这种‘可以’的态度。
This is more, you know, we're talking more about the yeses here.
为什么不呢？
Why not?
为什么不呢？
Why not?
对吧？
Right?
是的。
Yes.
我特别喜欢这一点。
I love it.
这说明这个人很有趣，而且因为生活中爱做些有意思的事，让人想更了解他。
It does show it shows that the person's fun and that they maybe you wanna get to know them because they do fun things in life.
他对新事物持开放态度。
They're open to things.
对吧？
Right?
没错。
Right.
没错。
Right.
我们再来看看其他一些你可能会听到的表达。
Let's do a couple other things that you might hear.
其中一个就是‘might as well’。
So one is might as well.
对。
Mhmm.
这通常表示你有理由去做某件事。
And this is usually saying you should do something for some reason.
你有理由去做某件事。
You should do something for some reason.
我们来通过一个角色扮演给听众演示一下。
Let's show our listeners in a role play here.
对。
Mhmm.
喂。
Hey.
咱们先去吃个晚饭再去看演出吧？
Wanna grab dinner before the show?
确实值得一试。
Might as well.
剧院周围有很多不错的餐厅。
There are great restaurants around the theater.
你的意思是，因为这儿餐厅这么多，顺道吃顿饭挺方便的。
So you're kinda saying, like, it would be convenient to do that because there are so many good restaurants here.
总比回家后冰箱里啥也没有强。
As as opposed to waiting till you get home and then there's nothing in the fridge.
对吧？
Right?
是的。
Yeah.
要是我们等到剧场再随便买点零食，那晚餐不就只能吃些M&M巧克力豆了嘛。
Or if we just wait until, you know, just to get snacks at the theater and then there's, you know, we're just sitting eating M and M's for dinner.
没错。
Right.
就是这样。
Right.
然后你会觉得特别不舒服。
And then then you feel awful.
是的。
Yeah.
完全对。
Totally.
那我们就现在去吧。
Or let's do it.
现在就去做，就是别人问你要不要做件事，你立马答应。
Now let's do it is just when someone asks you if you wanna do something and you're all in.
对吧？
Right?
这更常见也更传统，但其实也很随意。
This is more typical or traditional, but it's also casual too.
是的。
Yeah.
我觉得挺随意的。
It's kinda casual, I think.
对。
Mhmm.
我也这么觉得。
I think so too.
咱们回家路上买点外卖吧？
Should we pick up some takeout on the way home?
走吧。
Let's do it.
我真想试试那家新开的寿司店。
I really wanna try that new sushi place.
好的。
Okay.
是的。
Yeah.
所以，这些其实都是表达‘我开放着呢’的方式，你知道的，没什么是固定不变的。
So, yeah, these just are all ways to say, yes, I'm open, you know, I'm not set nothing is set in stone.
咱们试试这个吧。
Let's try this.
我真的很喜欢这些说法，尤其是‘为什么不呢’。
So I I really like these, and especially why not.
我注意到自己最近用得越来越多了，其实自从我策划这期节目后，我就意识到自己开始频繁用了。
I I have noticed myself using it more at like, I I I've realized that I use it now since I planned this episode.
好的。
Okay.
用得挺多的。
Use it a lot.
是的。
Yeah.
有意思。
Interesting.
我的意思是，关键一点是，我知道我们的听众都希望在语言表达上更自然随性，但这一点很大程度上取决于心态。
I mean, I think one of the key points here is I know that our listeners really wanna become more spontaneous in their language, but a big part of that is mentality.
对吧？
Right?
这些表达方式能帮你从心理上更开放、更灵活，让语言自然流露出来。
And these phrases help you to be spontaneous mentally speaking, like open to anything, which language might flow from there.
如果你有这种心态，说话时也可能更自然而然。
You know, if you have that attitude, maybe your language also comes out spontaneously.
所以就是这样。
So there you go.
有意思。
Interesting.
展开剩余字幕（还有 161 条）
确实如此。
That's true.
对。
Yeah.
好吧。
All right.
我们来角色扮演一下吗？
Should we do a role play?
好。
Yes.
我们现在是朋友，正在海滩上。
Here we are friends and we're at the beach.
这正是展现自然反应的好时机。
So what better time to be spontaneous.
对吧？
Right?
对。
Yes.
好的。
Alright.
好。
Okay.
开始了。
Here we go.
我们就在这个地方安顿下来吧？
Should we set up shop here?
是的。
Yeah.
就这么办。
Let's do it.
这地方真不错。
This is a great spot.
哎，那 guy 在卖柠檬水。
Oh, that guy is selling lemonade.
来点吗？
Want some?
为什么不呢？
Why not?
大热天没什么比这更爽的了。
Nothing better on a hot day.
哎，你看那些人打排球呢。
Oh, look at those people playing volleyball.
我们要不要去问问能不能一起打？
Should we ask to join?
反正闲着也是闲着。
Oh, might as well.
我特别喜欢打排球。
I love playing volleyball.
是的
Yeah.
这种状态也挺有感染力的。
It is it can be contagious too.
当你和那种特别投入的人在一起时。
When you know you're in the company of someone who is very much they're like
什么都愿意尝试。
Up for anything.
什么都愿意尝试。
Up for anything.
我本来想说是个随和的人，但这个词意思完全不一样，对吧，米歇尔？
I was going to say a yes person, but that means something totally different, doesn't it, Michelle?
意思完全不一样。
Means something completely different.
这个我们可以留到另一期再聊。
We could do that in a different episode.
说‘愿意尝试一切’更贴切些。
Up for anything is a much better way.
然后你也会不自觉地沾上这种态度。
Then you also take on that attitude a little bit.
是的。
Yeah.
对。
Yeah.
你们会互相鼓励。
You're you're kind of encourage each other.
没错。
Mhmm.
没错。
Mhmm.
而且你会受到影响，当然，我们不希望被负面的东西影响。
And you're influenced by I mean, of course, we don't want be influenced for negative things.
是的
Yeah.
这就涉及到同伴压力了
That that goes into peer pressure and
对吧？
things Right?
比如
Like
那不一样
You're That's different.
你讲的是那种轻松有趣的事
You're talking about fun, light things.
就像在冰淇淋里多加点白巧克力豆
Like adding extra white chocolate chips to your ice cream.
对啊，我们可不是在说去抢商店这种事
Yeah, we're not talking about robbing a store here guys.
别这么做。
Please don't do that.
天哪。
Oh gosh.
咱们干吧。
Let's do it.
不行。
No.
不行。
No.
不能这么干。
Not like that.
好吧。
Okay.
所以我才说，咱们要不要在这儿开个摊？
So I said, should we set up shop here?
所以，林赛，今天这个额外的安排挺有意思的。
So, Lindsay, that's an interesting bonus for today.
那这句话是什么意思呢？
What does that mean to
‘安营扎寨’？
set up shop?
可能我们的听众会有点困惑，因为那边有人在卖柠檬水。
And could see our listeners might have gotten confused because someone over there is selling lemonade.
所以你是说你也打算摆个柠檬水摊吗？还是别的？
So are you actually talking about a you're gonna set up a lemonade stand too or what?
我是说咱们把毛巾和东西往哪儿放， maybe 搞把伞撑着。
I'm talking about where we're gonna put our towels, where we're gonna put our stuff down, maybe get an umbrella.
对。
Yes.
我第一次没听明白，但现在觉得挺有意思的。
So that's actually I I didn't catch that the first time, but it's really interesting.
你不是在卖东西。
You're not you're not selling anything.
你也不是在开摊位。
You're not setting up a shop.
明白吗？
Okay?
你只是在布置自己的位置，就像你的专属区域一样。
But you are setting up your station, like your like your home area.

因为每次到海滩，你都得先挑个地方，把东西都摆出来。
Cause that's always what you do when you get to the beach, You gotta pick your spot, you gotta put all your junk down.
对，完全没错。
Yes, yes, totally.
这跟露营挺像的。
It's like camping is similar.
得挑个好位置，阴凉要合适，阳光也要刚好，方方面面都得考虑。
Gotta make sure you're in the right spot, the right amount of shade, the right amount of sun, all this stuff.
咱们是去那边呢，还是那边人太多了吧，嗯。
Should we go over here or should we or there's too many people over It's yeah.

把东西放下就行。

没错。

我们要不要过去问问，能不能一起打？
