1. You alright
在英国,随处可闻的 “You alright?”,被奉为 the most genuine and heartwarming question。
英国人也就是靠这句简单的问候,见缝插针、打开话匣。所以碰到中意的人时,别害羞,尽情漏出你那既花痴、又暖心的笑容,问问问问问候啊!!!!
人人都这样,咱又差哪样?更何况在腐国,主动问候,还代表着一个成年人的自我修养!
2. 情景对话
问候完,别打退堂鼓,继续勇往直前你做主!
咱们可以根据共同置身的场景,进行提问。
比如,如果在超市/商场排队,咱可以问:
"Sorry, are you in the queue?"
"Is it always this busy here? How often do you come here?"
"That juice looks great. Where did you find it?"
"Do you know where to find organic food? Is it expensive?"
记住!我们的宗旨只有一个:不要脸地聊下去!
再比如,在鞋店试鞋时,想跟店员搭讪,咱可以说:“Oh,I think your shoes look even better. Where did you buy them?”
买护肤品时,可以搭讪说:“Your skin looks perfect!Can you share some tips for skin care?”
3. 一起吃瓜
如果你恰好是名资深的吃瓜群众,那恭喜你,又找到新话题了。
Oh,did you hear about ...
- the terrorist attack happened yesterday in London?
- international students will be allowed to stay for 2 years in UK after graduation?
针对最近在英国的大事小情,发表各自意见,说说对自己和身边人的影响,聊个十分二十分钟的,不成问题。
4. “孤军奋战”?
如果是参加 party 或活动,碰到不止一个歪果仁,请松开即将被你拧断的衣角,和已经被你蹭出汗渍的酒杯,这场会面不叫“孤军奋战”,而叫“广结善缘”。Just relax and talk and make people's day!
"Did you all come here together, or did you meet here?"
“Are you a local? Do you mind introducing your city? I am thinking about travelling around England."
"Have you ever been to X down the street? I've really wanted to check it out."
最怕聊到半道儿,空气突然很安静?
其实你可以仔细分析自己对什么东西感兴趣,你若格外在意形象外表,对方很可能也是,那么你就可以先分享自己的皮肤问题,然后问:“你还是teenager的时候有skin issue吗?当时你也愁眉苦脸吗?我青春期发胖的时候特没自信,碰到喜欢的人就绕着走、不敢瞅,你也曾因身材走形而油盐不进吗?”
其实我们不是没有共同话题,相反我们都曾经历过teenage issues, family issues, even relationship issues, 秉持不同文化的我们,当时都是如何看待和面对的?又是如何解决或想通的?
5. 夸他!
随便挑他/她身上的一件单品开始夸!
“I like your nails/ new haircut/ earrings!”
“I really like your shirt / jacket! Where did you buy it?”
“Oh ,你衣品那么好,经常网购还是逛实体店啊?你能安利我一些当地品牌吗?你们网购几天到啊?你知道大名鼎鼎的中国淘宝吗?我们从上面买东西,三天就能到!”
“什么?在英国当然能逛淘宝了!像我们都在用的CB Post 这家转运公司,吃的、穿的、用的、涂的、抹的,都能邮寄到英国!包税、不包税渠道都有,最快3天到!”
