词汇量不够也想谈笑风生？可以试试这几招来补救
<p>英语再<span word="poor">poor</span>，也得有“范儿”，至少不会卡在那里尴尬的不行。今天和大家聊一聊当我们输出语言的时候，词汇量不够时可以有哪些应对措施来帮助“江湖救急”。</p><p>先提醒大家：不知道说什么的时候不要说“<span word="how">how</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="say">say</span>...” (怎么说），这不是一个完整的句子，是典型的受中文影响编出来的错误表达，也是很多人的口头禅。</p><p>找不到合适的表达的时候我们可以说：<span word="What">What</span> <span word="should">should</span> <span word="I">I</span> <span word="say">say</span>? <span word="How">How</span> <span word="should">should</span> <span word="I">I</span> <span word="put">put</span> <span word="it">it</span>? （都是表示“该怎么说呢？”）<span word="It">It</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="on">on</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="tip">tip</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="my">my</span> <span word="toungue">toungue</span>. <span word="I">I</span> <span word="don">don</span>'<span word="t">t</span> <span word="know">know</span> <span word="how">how</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="say">say</span> <span word="it">it</span>/<span word="this">this</span>/<span word="that">that</span> (<span word="in">in</span> <span word="English">English</span>). 也可以用一些“废话”来争取一些思考时间，例如<span word="well">well</span>, <span word="now">now</span>, <span word="you">you</span> <span word="see">see</span>, <span word="like">like</span>, <span word="uh">uh</span>... 或者就沉默一下，想好了再说。</p><p>用更模糊的表达</p><p>首先我们要明确一点：即便在母语中，我们也会用一定的方法回避不知道的或者不能马上想起来的词。例如我们日常生活中会常用一些模糊的表达，比如“就那个谁” “白的那个东西” “有个叫什么英语什么笔记的公众号”……</p><p>当我们说英语的时候也可以采用同样的策略，例如利用<span word="a">a</span> <span word="sort">sort</span> <span word="of">of</span>, <span word="a">a</span> <span word="kind">kind</span> <span word="of">of</span>, <span word="stuff">stuff</span>, <span word="thing">thing</span>这些表达进行模糊的描述。比如食物“开心果”怎么说？如果不知道<span word="pistachio">pistachio</span>这个词的话，我们可以进行模糊处理：<span word="It">It</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="kind">kind</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="nuts">nuts</span>. <span word="It">It</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="small">small</span>, <span word="the">the</span> <span word="shell">shell</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="white">white</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="flesh">flesh</span> <span word="greenish">greenish</span>. ( <span word="ish">ish</span>可以做后缀，表示“有点儿”，很实用）。比如“蚊香”不会说，可以试试"<span word="The">The</span> <span word="stuff">stuff</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="killing">killing</span> <span word="mosquitos">mosquitos</span>", <span word="mosquito">mosquito</span>不会说的话，可以说"<span word="the">the</span> <span word="small">small</span> <span word="flying">flying</span> <span word="thing">thing</span>"。只是别忘了回头查一查更准确有效的说法。</p>
