網絡課堂之英語口語詞彙(1)(Nord主講)錄音及筆記
課程筆記：
Introduction
其實當我們學習一門外語的時候，我們印象中的第一個東西就是vocabulary，對於大多數人來說呢，背單詞總是痛並快樂着的。
英語擁有超過200萬的語彙庫，英語經歷很多變化，是一種兼容幷包的語言，吸納了很多國家的語言。
英語詞彙的掌握，可以分爲三個層次：
1. 記單詞的第一層次，get to know it。
這個層次的單詞，對我們口語意義不大，因爲與與日常交流無關。
constellation = con-stell-ation=con-很多，共同；stell=star=星星；ation-名詞後綴=星座
2. 第二層次，dating with it。
我們瞭解它的意思，瞭解它如何用，瞭解它各個層面的意思、
例如：book 書；預定
3. 第三層次，family member。
Hi, good morning. OK, fine, thanks.
經過本課程後你學到的單詞，就會成爲你的family member。
