考慮你的英文基礎(chǔ),語(yǔ)言交換只能作為學(xué)習(xí)外語(yǔ)的一個(gè)輔助。
Language exchange is only an assistant form of your second language acquisition, it would be much better that you have already began your learning. 例如:如果你希望交換英文,最好你有英文基礎(chǔ),我們推薦的外籍人士中文也不是很好。 For example,If you want to learn Chinese and your partner’s Chinese is just at the level of beginning, it would be better that your English is at certain level so it will be less difficult for you two to get through to each other.
例如:如果你希望交換法語(yǔ),最好你有法語(yǔ)基礎(chǔ)或者英文水平較好。
And if you are intended to learn French, we hope that you can speak a little French or have a good command of English.
理想的語(yǔ)伴
the ideal language exchange partnership
理想的語(yǔ)伴應(yīng)該是雙方都處在一個(gè)相對(duì)較高的語(yǔ)言水平,希望提高彼此的流利度。這種情況下,雙方將充分享受與對(duì)方的交流。
The ideal partnership is, when both partners are of a farely advanced level, and want to improve their fluency. If this is the case, there is no doubt that both of you will enjoy your conversation.
不局限于母語(yǔ)語(yǔ)伴
don’t stick to “Native Speakers
在中國(guó),太多數(shù)人希望找到一個(gè)母語(yǔ)語(yǔ)伴,但是,母語(yǔ)語(yǔ)伴并不多見(jiàn)。實(shí)際上,你也可以從一個(gè)非母語(yǔ)的語(yǔ)伴身上學(xué)到很多。例如,一些歐洲人會(huì)講多國(guó)語(yǔ)言,他們也許教得更好,而你也可以熟悉各種口音。當(dāng)然,如果你想了解某個(gè)特定國(guó)家的文化,那么母語(yǔ)語(yǔ)伴則是最好。
In China, too many people try to find “native speakers” as a language exchange partner, but there are not so many native speakers in Australia. Actually, you can also learn a lot from “non-native speakers”. For example, some Europeans can speak multiple languages and maybe better teachers than native speakers, and you can become familiar with various accents. Of course, if you want to know the culture of a specific country, a native speaker of that country will be best.
