  1. Ms Grace Jones actually made an appearance on the #WordUp show i was watching. it was her #TOTP performance of SLAVE TO THE RYTHM.

    you could say she took a moment of cheeky lip-synching & turned it into performance art; BUT! from a negra point of view, it was her very loud & clear FUCK YOU to that very racist, very misgendering white gaze.

    because, THAT is why Ms Jones is revolutionary. her femininity IS her Negritude. she showed us how to never apologize for being Black Women.

  30. #语言学习

    一个忠告:想学什么语言就赶紧学,别被“我英语没学好”绊住,英语没学好纯粹是老中应试教育不行,和自学外语一点关系都没有。而且越是尽早开始自学,就越知道如何学习对自己而言才是效果最佳的,自学外语过程中的感悟还可以反哺英语学习。

    真的只有自学过才知道应试教育有多效率低下有多折磨身心。在辅助工具超多的情况下,自学真的是最优解。不同教材、各类app、播客、油管,随便挑都比应试教育只会照本宣读的老师强。(好老师当然有,但遇到好老师要有钱和好运气,自学甚至不需要花钱。)

    讲个鬼故事:我的西语词汇量要超过英语了……

    我的英语词汇量停留在高考大纲3500再往上加个几百,大概3800。(为什么知道得这么清楚?因为我用了象友推荐的用英语学英语的 #WordUp ,前几年闲来无事把单词一个个过了一遍。)如果我在国内读大学,应试教育的程度应该也会随之提升到四六级,但我没有,所以应试教育的水平停留在了高中。这些英语词汇量就是非常应试的词汇量,后果是给我一张高考卷也许我能做,给我一篇正儿八经的英语文章我就开始晕字。

    这几天也闲来无事把 #西语助手 的专八词库过了一遍,把比较熟悉的词都去掉了,也算为新年学新词做准备。结果词库7600多个词里我认识3100多,这还没算上知道/能猜到意思但语境和用法不熟悉的词。而我的西语词汇量不是应试词汇量,所以使用起来体感舒适,就算一篇西语文章的生词比同一篇的英语多,我读起来也比英语顺畅。最重要的是西语本身就没那么多通货膨胀的词,wiktionary的西语词条934.000+,英语词条8.259.000+,根本不在一个数量级上。

    太恐怖了。

    学生时代十几年如一日地努力学英语,效果不如断断续续自学西语两三年。

    什么狗屎啊,老中你赔我青春!要是我从小所有语言都自学现在怎么说也得是个熟练的多语人了。
