嘿，林赛。

Hey, Lindsey.

你好吗？

How are you?

感觉很好，米歇尔。

Feeling great, Michelle.

我有个问题想问你。

I have a question for you.

准备好了吗？

You ready?

是的。

Yes.

米歇尔，你上次分享一个大新闻是什么时候？

Michelle, when was the last time you shared a piece of big news?

一个大新闻？

A big piece of news?

有什么吗？

Anything?

嗯，我记得我分享我要搬家的时候。

Well, I I remember when I was sharing that I was moving.

是的。

Yes.

我

I

记得。

do remember.

我当时，对。

I was yeah.

我记得告诉朋友们。

I remember telling friends.

不过那挺伤感的。

It was sad, though.

其实挺好的，你知道的，但我记得当时告诉我朋友我们要离开纽约地区时，她哭了。

I mean, it was good, you know, but what I remember telling my friend that we were leaving, you know, the New York area, and and she cried.

哦，不会吧。

Oh, no.

是的。

Yeah.

所以我还记得分享那个消息时的情景，那感觉有点……你知道的，大家当然为我们高兴，但确实很难，尤其是当你住在一个流动性很强的地方。

And so I remember sharing that news and that was kind of it it it was, you know, people were happy for us, of course, but it's hard, especially when you live in a more transient place.

对。

Yes.

人们来来往往，然后……

And people are moving in and out and

我明白。

I know.

你知道，

You know,

他们有点，你知道，事情不一定是永久的，但你还是，对有些人来说，这个消息可能早就预料到了，但还是很难接受。

they they kinda they're you know things aren't necessarily permanent, but you're and so you know some for some people, but this nudes is probably coming, but it's still hard.

是的。

Yep.

我想就在昨天，我上了一节 Orangetheory 的课，老师做了个牌子，因为她的一位同事老师，那天正好也是班上的学生，要搬到佛罗里达去了。

I think just yesterday, I was in a Orangetheory class and the teacher had made a sign because one of her co teachers who just happened to be a student in the class that day was moving to Florida.

她对此发表了评论。

And she made a comment about that.

她说，我现在都懒得在这里交朋友了，因为每个人都离开科罗拉多。

She's like, I don't even bother to make friends here anymore because everyone leaves Colorado.

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

确实很难。

It's really hard.

我觉得搬到郊区的好处之一就是，我总体上确实感觉……

I mean, that's one thing that I have enjoyed about moving to the suburbs is I do feel generally.

对。

Yeah.

就是，好吧。

Like, okay.

这些人可能会成为我的朋友，你知道，在我的孩子们成长的过程中，他们会一直是我的朋友。

These could be friends of mine for, you know, the rest of you know, for my kids, you know, as they were growing up.

对。

Yeah.

而且，确实，人们会搬走。

And, yes, people are going to move.

我现在甚至有一个朋友，我正担心她会离开我。

I even have one friend I'm currently worried about leaving me.

但就是，越来越多的人在这里扎根了。

But but it's just like it's it's more people are putting down their roots.

所以，是的。

So Yes.

是的。

Yes.

对。

Right.

有道理。

That makes sense.

有道理。

That makes sense.

嗯。

Mhmm.

对。

Yeah.

所以今天我们要聊聊一些可以用来描述这种情况的词。

So today we're gonna talk about some words you can use to describe this situation.

所以当你告诉别人一件大事的时候，嗯，我的意思是，虽然不一定非得是大新闻，但我们说的是“告诉”这个动词。

So when you're telling somebody big well, I mean, it even though it doesn't have to necessarily be big news, but we're talking about the verb to tell.

对吧？

Right?

我告诉了她这件事。

I told her this.

我，我现在告诉你这件事。

I I'm telling you this.

我们还会分享一些其他的动词，当你基本上是想表达“告诉”的时候可以用。

And we're gonna share some other verbs that you can use when you are basically, mean to tell.

是的。

Yes.

但是Lindsay最近告诉我们，嗯，也不算最近，那到底有多近呢？

But Lindsay recently told us well, not so well, so how recently?

不。

No.

对。

Yeah.

这期节目要讲的是……但是……

This episode's gonna a of But

几个月前，她的重大消息。

a few months Her big news.

我的重大消息。

My big news.

我的重大消息是关于春天要生宝宝了。

My big news about having a baby in the springtime.

我知道，这太不可思议了。

I know it's so crazy.

这真是改变人生的大事。

That is a life changer.

对吧？

Right?

那是在第二十六集，第二十六集的时候。

That was back in episode twenty six twenty six.

如果你因为某种原因错过了，那你真是与世隔绝了，去看看吧。

If for some reason you miss it, you're living under a rock or something, go and check it out.

第二十六集，第二十六集，你坐好了吗？

Twenty six twenty six, are you sitting down?

还有林赛的重大消息。

Plus Lindsey's big news.

所以我们今天要聊的是揭露和分享。

So we're talking today about revealing, sharing.

但如果你这个夏天一直在听我们的节目，你会看到我每周都出现在很多集里，然后我们还有奥布里和米歇尔这对很棒的搭档。

But if you, you know, if you've been listening to the show this summer, you've seen that I am on many episodes each week, and then we have a great pairing of Aubrey and Michelle together.

对吧？

Right?

这就是接下来几周你可以期待的，但《全耳英语》没有任何变化。

This is what you can expect for the next couple of weeks moving forward, but nothing is changing with All Ears English.

我们完全在这里支持你们。

We are fully here for you guys.

对。

Yeah.

那么，Michelle，动词tell到底是怎么回事？

So what is up with the verb to tell, Michelle?

就是，它到底有什么特别的？

Like, what is up with it?

它有什么特别的？

What is up with it?

它听起来很中性。

It's very neutral sounding.

非常基础。

It's very basic.

它本身没什么问题。

There's nothing wrong with it.

你每天会听到无数次。

You're gonna hear it a million times a day.

我叫她下楼来。

I told her to come downstairs.

对。

Yeah.

我有件事要告诉你。

I have to tell you something.

是的。

Yes.

对吧？

Right?

不过我们今天要分享的这些，在某种程度上更偏向于一些秘密信息。

But the ones we're going to share today are a little bit more about kind of secretive information in some ways.

对。

Yeah.

那我们一个一个过一遍，好好聊聊。

So let's go through them and we're gonna talk it out.

Lindsay，第一个是什么？

So Lindsay, what is the first one?

好的。

Okay.

第一个是“揭示”。

The first one is reveal.

对吧？

Right?

就是说，之前有些东西没被揭露，后来被揭露出来了。

Like, something was unrevealed before, and then it became revealed.

对吧？

Right?

所以这算是秘密信息。

So it is secretive information.

在美国，我们有性别揭晓派对这个概念。

We have the concept in The US of a gender reveal concept.

米歇尔，你搞过那种活动吗？

Did you did you do that stuff, Michelle?

要是

What If

你往下看几行，我也在问你同样的问题。

you look down a few lines, I'm asking you the same question.

对。

Yeah.

那太有意思了。

That's so funny.

我确实没有办过那种性别揭晓派对。

I did I did not have, like, a gender reveal party.

好的。

Okay.

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

但是，我的意思是，我记得，你知道，我并没有……我是后来才知道我孩子的性别的。

But, like, I mean, I remember you know, I didn't I I found out what my children the I found out the genders.

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

但是，是的。

But yeah.

你参加过性别揭晓派对吗？

Have you ever been to a gender reveal party?

我从来没参加过这种派对。

I've never been to one.

没有，我的朋友里也没人办过。

No, none of my friends have had one.

就是，嗯，我之前确实没参加过。

It's just, yeah, I just haven't been to one before.

我知道这在现在的文化里是个大话题。

I know it's a big concept in our culture right now.

就我个人而言，我更喜欢惊喜的感觉。

Personally, I prefer the surprise.

我不太想过分强调性别。

I don't like to put a ton of emphasis on gender.

我觉得那真的没那么重要。

I just think it doesn't really matter that much.

所以，你知道的，我们就决定不办这个。

So, you know, so so we chose not to do that.

我们决定就让它成为一个惊喜。

We chose to just make it a surprise.

等宝宝出生的时候，我们就知道了。

And when the baby comes out, we know.

你懂吧？

You know?

我就是没耐心。

That's I just am impatient.

所以我

So I

就是必须知道。

just have to know.

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

但我没有把它搞得很隆重，像那种大张旗鼓的。

But I didn't make like I I I I wanna have made kind of, like, a big show about it.

我就是等不及了。

It's just I can't wait.

对。

Yeah.

哦，那太酷了。

Oh, that's so cool.

没关系。

That's okay.

你想知道点什么吗？

You wanna know something.

你想要点信息吗？

You want some information.

对吧？

Right?

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

所以，但我的很多朋友都不知道，他们都很惊讶。

So but a lot of my friends didn't find out and we're just surprised.

对。

Yeah.

就是很惊讶。

Just surprised.

对。

Yeah.

每个人都有个“对”。

Everyone has a Yeah.

对这个有不同的看法。

Different take on this.

其实，我觉得我听过，让我确认一下。

Actually, I think I've heard let me double check.

我觉得这有个说法。

I think there's an expression for this.

是不是叫“绿色团队”？

Is it called team green?

我不知道。

I don't know.

那是什么？

What is that?

不知道那是什么。

Don't what that is.

性别揭晓。

Gender reveal.

我觉得没问题。

I think it's okay.

对。

Yeah.

父母们，对。

Parents yeah.

对。

Yeah.

这是从AI那儿来的，各位。

This is from AI guys.

Team green指的是父母选择在宝宝出生前不提前知道性别。

Team green refers to parents choosing not to learn their baby's gender before birth.

哦。

Oh.

让产房成为最终的揭晓时刻。

Making the delivery room the ultimate reveal.

我直到最近才听说过这个。

I have never heard that until recently.

绿色团队。

Team Green.

好的。

Okay.

那在最后九个月里知道这个会很好。

That would be good to know for the last nine months.

对吧？

Right?

对。

Yeah.

没错。

Exactly.

嗯，不是

Well, not

哦，好吧。

Oh, well.

不错。

Cool.

这就对了。

There you go.

所以，但是要揭露。

So but reveal.

这里还有一些其他的例子。

So here's a here are some other examples.

她昨晚在秀上展示了她新的时装系列。

So she revealed her new fashion line at the show last night.

太棒了。

It was amazing.

是的。

Yes.

这不仅仅是为了宝宝的性别。

It was not just for for baby's gender.

对吧？

Right?

所以他泄露了一些机密信息，现在他麻烦大了。

So he revealed some classified information and now he's in big trouble.

所以这些信息是机密的。

So the information was classified.

这是个秘密。

It's a secret.

这本来是个秘密，现在他惹上麻烦了。

It was a secret, and he's in trouble now.

明白吗？

K?

没错。

Exactly.

所以就像你说的，我们可能会听到像“性别揭晓派对”这样的说法。

So so like you said, we might hear something like gender reveal party.

所以我明天要去参加一个性别揭晓派对，明天。

So I'm going to a gender reveal party tomorrow, tomorrow.

或者你可能会听到像“大揭晓”这样的说法。

Or you might hear something like the big reveal.

对吧？

Right?

是的。

Yes.

对。

Right.

或者，嗯，是的。

Or yeah.

就是这样。

That that's it.

就是这样。

That's it.

就是那种，有人要宣布我们大家一直期待的事情。

The big like, someone is going to announce something that we've all been waiting for.

在

In

某种程度上。

a way.

所以你可能会听到，你准备好迎接大揭秘了吗？

So you might hear, Are you ready for the big reveal?

对。

Right.

是的。

Yeah.

所以，是的。

So yeah.

大概就是这个意思。

This is kind of the idea.

你是在告诉别人某件事，但用的是非常特定的方式。

You're you're telling something, but in a this is in a very specific way.

然后我们来看“share”这个词。

And then we have the word share.

Lindsey，你觉得这个词怎么样？

Lindsey, what do you think about this one?

对。

Yeah.

我喜欢这个词。

I like this one.

这个“share”稍微中性一点。

This share is a little more neutral.

它有点像“tell”，但不管怎样，我们这期节目就是想重点讲这个词。

It's like tell, but we want to highlight it here in this episode anyways.

就是告诉别人一些信息，希望他们能和你一起知道这件事。

It's giving someone information that you want them to join in on knowing about it with you.

对吧？

Right?

嗯。

Mhmm.

我想跟你分享一件事，这件事我没告诉过很多人。

I wanna share something with you that I haven't told a lot of people.

对吧？

Right?

嗯。

Mhmm.

嗯。

Mhmm.

还有呢？

What else?

对。

Yeah.

我的意思是，可能是个人隐私，但这个词没那么神秘。

I mean, could be, you know, it could be personal information, but it's it's less of a secret secretive word.

不一定。

Not necessarily.

对吧？

Right?

比如，我得分享一下加布里埃尔今天早上说的话。

So for example, I have to share what Gabriel said this morning.

太可爱了。

It was so adorable.

所以我可以直接说，我得告诉你。

So I could have said, have to tell you.

对吧？

Right?

不过，是的。

But yeah.

我觉得这个用法更普遍。

This is this one is, I think, more widespread.

就算班里有孩子举手，很想发言，老师也可能会说：你有什么想分享的吗？

Even if there's a kid in class and he's raising his hand, he really wants to speak, the teacher might say, do you have something to share?

对吧？

Right?

对。

Yes.

对。

Yes.

你知道吗？

You know?

这不一定是什么大秘密，但也可能是。

And that's not necessarily about a big secret, but it could be.

对吧？

Right?

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

有意思。

Interesting.

怎么说呢，对。

What's, yeah.

比如，你能跟全班分享一个你小时候的故事吗？

Like, can you share a story from your childhood with the class?

对吧？

Right?

就像你说的，对，这可以用在课堂上。

Like you said, yeah, it could be used in the classroom.

林赛，你小时候，有没有人跟你说过分享就是关爱？

You also, Lindsay, when you were growing up, did people tell you sharing is caring?

当然有啊。

Yeah, for sure.

我现在甚至还会跟我另一半这么说。

And I I even say that to my partner now.

我另一半有块派。

My partner has like a piece of pie.

就像昨晚我们坐在沙发上。

Like last night we're on the couch.

有一块派。

There was a piece of pie.

我就说，你肯定不会不跟我分享的。

I said, oh, you're definitely not gonna not not gonna not share that with me.

什么派？

What kind of pie?

青柠派。

Key lime pie.

哦，那是我最喜欢的。

Oh, that's my favorite.

那是我最喜欢的。我有一个朋友。

That is my I have my I have a friend.

他做的青柠派特别好吃，我们之间有个梗，就是总互相送青柠味的东西，他还会在别人生日的时候做青柠派。

He makes an amazing key lime pie, and it's like our whole joke is that they're always we always bring each other key lime things, and he makes key lime pies on people's birthday.

那是我最喜欢的。

That's my favorite.

那是最棒的。

It's the best.

确实是最棒的。

It is the best one.

它很清爽，但又特别好吃。

It's like refreshing, but also So good.

同时又很浓郁。

Rich at the same time.

所以它很完美。

So it's perfect.

对。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

所以，但确实。

So but yeah.

分享很多时候就是关心。

Sharing is caring a lot of time.

你刚才用这个说法挺有意思的。

That's that's funny that you just use it.

对。

Yeah.

嗯，我是说，分享就是关爱，Lindsey，这是什么意思？

Well, I mean, what is sharing is caring, Lindsey?

我们为什么这么说？

Why do we say this?

对。

Yeah.

我觉得这个说法可能更多是对孩子说的，但大人也会拿来用，用在别的地方。

Mean, I is a phrase that I think you might say more often to kids, but adults steal it and use it for their own purposes.

对吧？

Right?

对。

Yeah.

比如，拿点派来。

Like, get pie.

我要分你一点派。

I'm gonna share some of your pie.

我不是那个意思，所以这就是“分享就是关爱”这个说法的由来。

I'm not that's why it's it's this idea of sharing is caring.

我的意思是，这是个很可爱的押韵，用来表达如果你分享，就说明你关心别人，你是个好人。

I mean, it's a cute rhyme to show that if you share, you care, and you're you're being nice.

但跟孩子分享这个概念挺有意思的，因为有时候我觉得，我女儿明天就四岁了。

But it's it's interesting with kids sharing that concept because sometimes I feel with my now tomorrow, well, she'll be four.

哇。

Wow.

对。

Yeah.

我觉得跟我女儿在一起的时候，你会看到他们就是还没准备好分享。

I feel with my daughter, you know, you see that they're they're just not ready to share.

你知道吗？

You know?

他们就是，有时候我觉得我们太早强迫孩子分享了。

They're they're try and sometimes I think we try and push sharing on kids too soon.

而且你知道，我在网上会看到一些关于这个的不同说法。

And from you know, I'll see different things online about it.

就是说，如果你太早强迫孩子分享，那就会变成，哦，好吧，现在该轮到别人玩了。

You know, that if you push it too soon that it shows, oh, well, this person should play with it now.

你的需求就不重要了。

That you it doesn't matter your needs.

这可能会给他们传递错误的信息。

And it might teach give them kind of the wrong message.

我也不确定。

I don't know.

有时候，孩子们可能还没发展到我们期望的那个阶段，能像我们希望的那样分享。

Sometimes if kids are just really that developmentally able to share as soon as we want them to.

但是当你和一群人都带着孩子在一起时，你会感到压力，好像必须得说，

But when you're with a group and everybody has their kids, you feel this pressure to be like,

哦，我们都得分享。

Oh, we all have to share.

这真的很有意思。

That's really interesting.

我在想我们的听众会怎么想。

I wonder what our listeners think.

我们的听众里有很多是家长，他们肯定会有自己的看法。

I mean, so many of our listeners are parents and they would definitely have an opinion on this.

这可能跟家庭规模有关，不同文化里也不一样。

It could be culturally different depending on family sizes.

比如说，如果家里孩子很多，不分享也是一种选择。

I mean, even an option to not share if you have a huge family.

真希望我们能做个小小的投票。

I wish we could do little poll.

也许我们可以把投票做成关于这个具体问题的，这个话题确实很有意思。

Maybe we'll make our poll about Really this particular question interesting topic though.

这里面可以聊的东西很多。

There's a lot there.

分享确实是个大问题。

Sharing Yeah, is a big

确实如此。

there really is.

也许我们以后会再聊到这个话题。

Maybe we'll come back to this sometime.

对。

Yeah.

好，现在来说“disclose”，这个词更正式一些。

Okay, now disclose is a little more formal.

它更专业一些。

It's a little more professional.

你可能会在治疗这类场合听到这个词。

You might hear this in the context of like therapy.

你向治疗师透露一些事情。

You disclose something to his therapist.
