When i was in university
My friends all had boyfriends
So they would feel bad for me
And they ked me to go with them
Oh
Let's all go to dinner
Let's all watch a movie
And i felt like a third whee
Third whee 就是我们说的电灯泡
You know how we put it in chinese
Something about a light
Light ball
Yeah
We call that light ball
Light 电灯泡
But that sounds so cute
Third wheel just sounds sad
Third wheel
Wheel will
就是那个
那个汽车的轮子
And i got a bicycle young
就是自行车上的那个轮子
自行车有两个轮子嘛
然后the third wheel 就是我们说的电灯泡
嗯
It's there
But it doesn't need to be there
So if you're with your couple friends
And they are cutdling and kissing each other cuddling
And kissing cuddling
抱抱啊
然后kiss
亲亲呀
然后这个时候
嗯
我们的third 同同学
Boyfeel feel you're there

Alright
So do the single guys call valentine's day
Valentineine's day
Do you have a special term
你们有有没有一个特殊的名称呢
Yes
There is a nickname
That some people give valentine's day 给了这个情人节一个nickname
一个小昵称
What is that singles awareness day
My dad would always call it that because my sister and i would never have a date on valentine's single awareness
Aware 就是警觉
就是觉察
警觉
Painfully aware
Yeah
Single awareness stay 就是说觉察到自己是一只single dog
Yes
That's painful
It's really bad
Some
Sometimes you don't even wana go out or celebrate it
And if you feel really sad about the holiday
Then you can just buy chocolate and stay at home
And be sad
And get fyeah ah ah ah just eat all chochocolate yself oah that's why it's caught single awareness next day
Yeah
Because everything on valttine sttes for
For people
Because
Yeah
Because gifts are for you know like restaurant get that yeah
那restaurant deals 就是那种
嗯 搞活动的
专门for two people ready for the couples
就会有一些套价呀
或者说一些套餐呀
这个东西呢
就叫做restaurant deal
Yeah
听着真的是满满的负能量
But there is
But there is also optimistic way right
Yeah
To celebrate this
Oh
Definitely a single for single dog
Yeah
So single dogs
They have a couple choices
They set of been with other people
And set up being a one one sasad
嗯
可以去跟别人出去玩对吗
嗯嗯
So an example would be if you are single
And you have a friend
Uh like if i have a guy friend
Who's also single
Then maybe we can have a friend date but ah
就是是友友之间的这种约会
但是it's not romantic
Yeah
Not romantic
But maybe we want to go do something fun
Or we want to go save money at a restaurant
To take a advantage
Yeah
Take advantage of taking king 小便宜对不对
然后就是因为有这种类似于restaurant deal 或者说一些其他的一些东西
然后两个人都可以一起去玩一玩
然后 Yeah
To save money
对
Where you don't have to go with the flow 也不一定非得要顺着这个大六走嘛
对不对 对
Just not celebrate
嗯 Yeah
To save your money
嗯 对 Just 钱
什么都不要做了
Just don't do anything
It's just a regular day
Yeah
It's just a regular day
Yeah Yeah
But also speaking up shopping day
哎
所以you can let's have a black friday
Oh That's
I'm so bad
Doesn't it black friday
Black friday
Yeah
Sounds like scary
Yeah It
That 好像有点可怕
Why do you guys call up black friday
为什么要把它称作是black friday 呢
Yeh
That's a great question
I don't think i have the answer to that
Oh
It's black friday
What's always on a friday
Yeah
It's the friday after thanksgiving
嗯
就是是感恩节之后的那个friday
来
然后black friday 是你们的一个big shopping day
Yeah Right
So on thanksgiving
You are thankful for what you have
And then the next day you go and you fight
People to spend money and buy things that you don't need
感恩节的时候刚刚感感恩完毕
然后就跑到商场里面去给人争抢
然后抢了一些可能你们压根就不需要的一些东西
嗯 Okay
So on black friday
People will wake up very early in the morning
Like we got three am
Three am or two
Wow
We are just the opposite
我们正好相反
We stay up late
我们熬夜
然后你们是get
Get up early
Get up early
早
So we'll go to stores very early in the morning
And stand in very long lines
嗯
排一个特别特别长的队
And we will wait
And stay up late or opens maybe at aamm will um show all of these um discounted things
啊
就是有很多去这个实体店里面的real stores
I just like to buy things
但是你们这个是offline thing
Because in china is more like the online thing
对
More carrener
就是线上的一种一种commerce
嗯
It used to be only in stores
But now we have something onack friday is the friday after thanksgiving yes on monday after thanksgiving
It's called cyber monday
And that's when all of the online stores have their deals
Oh
也就是说感恩节之后的那个monday rates to be turned
就是cyber monday
嗯
然后这个cyber 就指internet right
也就是cyber monday
在那一天的时候呢
好多online production 或者说stores
Online stores yeah
Will have a lot of discounts yeah
So some people don't like to go out on friday
Because it's too crowded
Yeah
You know like traffic
And they want to sleep in
Because the day before they had a really big meal
Yeah 嗯
有很多人呢
他在这个black friday 那一天的时候呢
想要sleep in
想要睡个懒觉sleep in
因为可能在前一天的这个thankkgiving 的时候吃太多多了
有有有有
所以呢
可能他们就会选择they will pick
They will choose to buy things on cyber monday yeah
They can wait
They can just stay home and buy things wearin their yjjamas
Yeah
用早起去实体店里面买东西
然后只要在家穿着睡衣就可以把这个该买的东西就就买好了
所以呢
美国是有两个
一个呢是black friday
Edigoing going to show cyberer monday
But i guess black friday is much more crazy than cyber monday
Right
You can't really hurt other people online yeah in stores
People push there have been people who died seriously yeah
If if
If the store is smaller
And people are excited enough
When they pushed to get in the doors
When the door opens
If someone falls
People don't always stop
Yeah
Help them
So
会发生一些踩踏事件
会有人死
死掉
这样的accidents will happen
It's not
Not ten
Ten
But because some things have happened in the past a lot of stores
Today have more strict you les like
If you must behave
Y're going to kick you out
嗯嗯
因为之前呢
发生过类似的这种踩踏死亡事件
在black friday 黑色星期五的时候
所以呢
他们现在很多店呢
会有这样的一个strict to roll
嗯哼啊
这种比较严格的一些这种制度
如果你misbehave
Misbehave 就是啊
就是去推人家呀
或者说表现不太好的话
你的行为行为不当的话
人家可能会把你kick you out
把你给踢出去
我们的双十一也很疯狂
我们直播就是没有踩踏人
但是the internet cracks
网络会崩溃的
真的吗
真的是
How speaking of discount
我们感受到这个打折扣呢
嗯
American right english is quite the opposite of chinese 对吧
我们中国的这个打折的是打折的这个方式呢
跟英语当中恰好是相反的
Yeah
It was so weird
When i came here in america
The higher
The number
The bigger
The discount
So like
If you see something
That says eighty percent of you only pay twenty percent of the price
Yeah
If 恰恰是相反的哈
比如说我们说打八折
那么美国人呢
他就会说twenty percent of
Yeah
Something is twenty percent off 就是打了八折
那么打七折就就thirty perperent of right
那打五折怎么说呢
We could say fifty percent of
嗯
A half off or even half price 啊
Half price 也是可以的
对折打了一个半价
Half price 我们也这样讲
We also see that
但是可不呢
打半价呀
Hhalf price
Fifty percent of in the half off
那所以呢
大家以后一定要记住了
英语当中的这种discount 跟我们汉语当中呢
正好是相反的
