Podcast Number 1
播客第一期
Hi, my name is Rob McCormack. I have just turned 60 years old and I have been retired for about 18 months. I live in Melbourne Australia with Silvia, my wife of 35 years, and our youngest son Andrew, who still lives at home. I'm very happy in my retirement, as I have many personal interests and I now have time to spend on them. But why am I making these podcasts? Let me explain that by telling you about my most important personal interest.
大家好,我是羅布·麥考馬克。我剛滿60歲,在18個月以前退休。我和結婚35年的妻子西爾維婭以及我們最小的兒子安德魯一起住在澳大利亞墨爾本,我們的小兒子目前還和我們生活在一起。我很高興我退休了,因為我有很多個人興趣,現在我終于有時間專注這些興趣了。我為什么要做這個播客呢?這和我最重要的個人愛好有關,下面我就來解釋一下。
You see, I am learning to speak German. I started to learn German because my wife, Silvia, was born in Austria and came to Australia when she was 8 years old. She still speaks German fluently. She learned to speak English very well and throughout our 35 years of marriage, we have always spoken English together. But when we go back to Austria to visit her relatives, I find that I can't understand what is being said unless everybody speaks English.
現在我在學習德語。我學習德語是因為,我妻子西爾維婭出生在奧地利,8歲的時候來到澳大利亞。她現在依然可以說流利的德語。她的英語說得非常好,結婚35年來,我們在一起時一直說英語。可是我們回奧地利去看望她的親戚時,我發現如果他們不說英語,我完全不明白他們在說什么。
