؛گرايش نسل جواني که قلم به دست دارند و در حوزه هاي مختلف فکري و انديشگي به
ترجمه قلم مي زنند، گاه اين سوال را به ذهن متبادر مي کند که ما تا کجا مجاز به
ترجمه و بلعيدن آثار متفکران غرب و نيز نينديشيدن، توليد نکردن و کشف نکردن راز و
رمزهاي جامعه خود هستيم.اگر اين ترجمه ها باعث تلنگر زدن به خلاقيت و نوآوري ما
نشود آيا اين خوراک هاي فکري آماده جسارت انديشيدن و تاليف و ترويج را از ما
نخواهد گرفت؟ در اين خصوص با دکتر ناصر فکوهي به گفت وگو نشستيم که در پي مي آيد.
-در حال حاضر جامعه ما با ترجمه هاي گوناگوني در حوزه هاي مختلف
مواجه است، البته ترجمه دانش بشري را ارتقا مي دهد، يا به قول «شريعتي» انسان هاي
«دوفرهنگه» خدمت بيشتري به جامعه خود مي کنند تا انسان هاي «تک فرهنگه». حال شما
اگر بخواهيد به دستاوردهاي مثبت و منفي ترجمه اشاره کنيد، به چه مواردي مي
پردازيد
Many people effectively learn English from Hollywood movie (not Bellwood ok?).
Yet, you can see some friends, who watch thousand of hollywood movie, do not speak any words!! Right, the thing is you don't just watch it but you have to watch by learning purpose to create more useful entertainment.
The steps may annoy your emotion but if you want to learn English you better follow below steps. Otherwise, you may lost your time and effort without nothing. There are three easy steps to follow.
1. Buy soundtrack movie (of course!) and watch it with the subtitle on at the first time. Your eyes and ears should work equally at this stage. Try to understand the theme and the main idea of the movie...
TRUE! nervous, very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why WILL you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses, not destroyed, not dulled them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all things in the heaven and in the earth. I heard many things in hell. How then am I mad? Hearken! and observe how healthily, how calmly, I can tell you the whole story.
It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain, but, once conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion there was none. I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! Yes, it was this! One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture -- a pale blue eye with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me my blood ran cold, and so by degrees, very gradually, I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye for ever.
Now this is the point. You fancy me mad. Madmen know nothing. But you should have seen me. You should have seen how wisely I proceeded -- with what caution -- with what foresight, with what dissimulation, I went to work! I was never kinder to the old man than during the whole week before I killed him. And every night about midnight I turned the latch of his door and opened it oh, so gently! And then, when I had made an opening sufficient for my head, I put in a dark lantern all closed, closed so that no light shone out, and then I thrust in my head. Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust it in! I moved it slowly, very, very slowly, so that I might not disturb the old man's sleep. It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon his bed. Ha! would a madman have been so wise as this? And then when my head was well in the room I undid the lantern cautiously -- oh, so cautiously -- cautiously (for the hinges creaked), I undid it just so much that a single thin ray fell upon the vulture eye. And this I did for seven long nights, every night just at midnight, but I found the eye always closed, and so it was impossible to do the work, for it was not the old man who vexed me but his Evil Eye. And every morning, when the day broke, I went boldly into the chamber and spoke courageously to him, calling him by name in a hearty tone, and inquiring how he had passed the night. So you see he would have been a very profound old man, indeed , to suspect that every night, just at twelve, I looked in upon him while he slept...
English songs have been very popular for people around the world for many decades.
From Elvis Presley to Ricky Martin , from the Beattles to Eminen and from Natalie cole to Britney Spears have all been sitting in everyone's heart, even for people who don't speak English.... even for people who speak zero English.
Should you have better English skills if you listen to English songs for a long time? If so, what skills should you improve?
From my experiences, some people listen to English songs for 20-30 years but still don't accomplish any good English skills. Some people choose English songs to be the "main learning approach", which most are failed.
Listenning to English songs does not help you to speak English fluently. It does help you gain some vocabularlies but, yet, most of them are unusual ones that you don't use in your everyday life....
Once upon a time, there was a great king. He has a smart henchman and always take him along eveywhere.
One day, the king got bitten by a dog giving him a severe wound. He asked the henchman "Is this some kind of bad luck?" The henchman said "Good or bad. Hard to tell."
Finally the king lost his finger. He asked the henchman again "Is this some kind of bad luck?" Same reply by the henchman "Good or bad. Hard to tell."
The King got very angry and order to put him in the jail.....
