今天的这段对话，在讨论学英语，
 
很多挪威人的英语都很棒，他们学英语到底是有什么秘诀
 
来听今天的讲解:
 
A: Now, Christian, you're English is amazing. Perfect actually.
 
Christian，你英语说的真好，简直太棒了。
 
B: Thank you.
 
谢谢。
 
A: And many people from Norway have excellent English. What is the secret about Norway?
 
很多来自挪威的人英语都很棒。到底是有什么秘诀呢？
 
B: I don't know. I actually heard that before that I meet a lot of people and they say,"Oh, you're from Norway.
 
我不知道。只是之前，我碰到很多人的时候他们都会说，“哦，你来自挪威。”
 
Norwegian people speak such good English. Why is that?"
 
挪威人能说得一口流利的英文。这是为什么呢？
 
Personally I think it's because we get a lot of exposure to English, through TV, music, media, everything, and we don't dub movies and TV programs like they do in many other countries.
 
我个人觉得是因为我们生长在英语的大环境下，电视，音乐，媒体，一切的一切都是英文的，而且不同于其他国家，电影以及电视节目都是没有配音的。
 
We get subtitles. And the same with music. English music is very, very popular.
 
我们有字幕。音乐也是一样的。英文歌也是非常流行的。
 
Probably more popular that Norwegian music, and I guess as well the education system provides us with really good, you know, teaching so, I mean all those combined together, you know, creates, how to say.
 
也许更出名的是挪威乐曲，而且我想校方也提供了相当棒的音乐课，所以我的意思是，所有的这些加起来就造就了我们。恩怎么说呢，你知道的。
 
A: Super speakers!
 
一流的演说家！
 
B: I don't know super speakers. It's a good combination, I guess in term of learning the language, so, you know, and a lot of Norwegians travel as well and they have time to practice as well, which is important if you want to speak English well.
 
我不知道什么一流演说家。但这是个很好的融合，我想，单是从学语言方面考虑，很多挪威人出去旅游，同时会有更多的时间说英语，练习英语。如果你想学好英语这一点是很重要的。
 
A: Sure, well, how difficult is it to learn Norwegian?
 
当然，那学习挪威语会有多难呢？
 
B: That is probably more difficult that English, I'd say, but it's interesting I have a private Japanese student at the moment and he went to Norway on exchange from his university here in Japan
 
我不得不说那可能会比英语更难，但有趣的是我现在有个日本学生，他从他学校来挪威做交换生。
 
and he didn't speak a word of Norwegian before he went but he spent the year there, and he now can have a decent conversation with me in Norwegian.
 
而且他来之前不会说一句挪威语但他在这儿呆了几年，现在跟很熟练地跟我用挪威语对话了。
 
That's three years ago since he went there, but still he speaks pretty well.
 
他来这儿才三年，但挪威语仍然讲得很好。
