In this episode, it’s my privilege to be joined by Professor Nigel Linge, an expert in the field of computer networking and telecommunications in the UK. What interests me most is not the aforementioned, but his being a member of the Association for Industrial Archaeology. His passion for the history of the British phonebox led him to write a book about it — The British Phonebox.

英語的filler word(填充字) 充滿在我們的周圍，但在正式場合，還是盡量避免，今天列出幾個最常掛在嘴邊的，一起來聽如何斟酌使用吧！ Facebook | Instagram 搜尋：Excuse英國腔! 1.like Oh it was like yesterday. I saw like a stray kitty in the street at like 2 p.m. Like I mean I really like it. She’s like my baby, you know. 少用like，聽者會更容易專注在對話內容。 2.basically Basically, when there is an argument between a husband and wife. Remember she is always right.  That hotel is basically the best one in town but sadly it is not dog-friendly. 3.innit (Do) you fancy it, don’t you? It is marvelous, isn’t it? We’re going outside, aren’t we?  > do you fancy it, innit? It is marvelous, innit? We’re going outside, innit? 4.um/well How could I, um, order dishes with Ubereats on my phone ? Well, you simply down’load their app, be it on Android or IOS. And you’re, um, good to go really !  How dare you drive my car? Well, it’s a nice car, why not? 5. Really So, I went to a party last night. Oh, really. 6. you know Can a dog remember his keeper after 10 years of separation? Well, you know, I think so.  7.sort of/kind of Basically, she looks sort of like my sister, you know. > She looks slightly like my sister. 8. literally It’s literally the stinkiest stinky tofu I’ve ever had in my life. And also I’m literally blown away by this fantastic bubble tea!  9. I mean English is a useful and interesting language. I mean, I really mean it. > English is a useful and interesting language. I really mean it.  >English is a useful and interesting language which I really mean. 10. let’s see/let me think (see) Hey, we should definitely meet next time. When will you be available next time. Let’s see, how about next Saturday afternoon? 兩個建議： 1. 嘗試忍住快脫口而出的填充字，呼吸一下，想好再講，別怕對話中的片刻寂靜；你可以觀察前總統歐巴馬或一些脫口秀主持人如何善用短暫的寂靜，達到極佳的溝通效果。 2. 知道你在說什麼，每個說出來的字都有他的用意。偶爾用填充字可以幫助說話的連貫，過度的使用，聽的人可能會開始數你說了幾個讚，啊不是，是幾個like。 總結： 溝通先求精確accuracy、再來是言簡意賅clarity，最後才追求優雅elegance。

Facebook | Instagram 搜尋：Excuse英國腔! 合作邀約： islandstateofmind2020@gmail.com Excuse英國腔!, literally meaning Excuse my British accent — a bilingual podcast channel. Here, you will be able to access unique interviews from around the world. As our global supply chain is restructuring in part due to Covid-19 and trade war between the US and China; we’ve also got aiwan’s New Southbound Policy and Taiwan’s 2030 Bilingual Country Project, cross-cultural communication has never been so crucial today. If you believe in the notion that one’s English proficiency does not necessarily reflect one’s global perspective, this channel will be your echo chamber. And why not? Then you might ask, ‘how do you effectively communicate between cultures? It begins where different perspectives are heard -- the motto of this channel. You could access my episodes on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. From British barber settling in Taiwan for love to Shanghai headhunter sharing how to write CV and cover letter; from Canadian author walking along the entire coastline of Taiwan on foot to rebellious legendary English copywriter based in Amsterdam; even from Bunun art curator advocating Taiwan’s indigenous peoples’ cultures to Director of Taiwan Studies of SOAS, London. There are way more unique interviews featuring distinguished guests out there to explore. If you also wish to learn British English in a smart casual way, I share practical British English tips and usages, too. You can learn and feel the beauty of the language from me, a non-native British English speaker who self trains. Finally, and it’s of utmost importance, if you fancy this channel, I would really appreciate it if you rate and comment my channel on Apple Podcasts, telling me what your favourite is and any feedback you might have. You are also warmly, I hope it’s not hot there, invited to join my Facebook group or follow me on Instagram where you can join the conversation. Alright, stay safe and well, cheers!
