Julienned (adj.) (food) cut into short, thin strips 切絲的
影片用句：We have some julienned cucumbers.
翻譯：我們有一些黃瓜絲。
Dig in (phr. v.) to begin eating 開動
影片用句： Let’s dig in before we jump into today’s story.
翻譯：在我們直接進入故事以前先開動吧！
Figuratively (adj.) not taking words in their basic sense; metaphorically 形象化的
其實只要不是按照字面上的意思，有隱設、譬喻、擬人的任何修辭，都是figurative。
影片用句：I mean literally, not figuratively.
翻譯：我是說實際按照字面上來說，而不是誇飾或比喻。
Fetish (n.) a form of sexual desire that is abnormally heavily linked to a particular object 性癖
影片用句：I’ve heard of it being a fetish, but I never thought I would meet anyone with it in real life.
翻譯：我有聽說過這是一種性癖，但我從來沒想過會在現實生活遇見有這樣性癖的人。
Ghost (v.) [informal] to cut off all communication without explanation 搞失蹤
Ghost 原先是鬼的意思，當成動詞就是變成跟鬼一樣消失無蹤看不見了。通常用在有曖昧關係的人之間，無緣無故的搞失蹤就是ghosted。跟已讀不回不一樣。就是從你的世界蒸發。
影片用句：You just ghosted him.
翻譯：你就直接對他搞失蹤了。
補充：常常被學生問到已讀不回怎麼說，就是leave sb. on read. 這裡的read是過去式，發音/red/。把某人留在已讀的狀態，也就是已讀不回。例如：Every time I ask her about the money she owes us, she leaves me on read. 每次我向她問起她欠我們的錢，她就對我已讀不回。
Persistent (adj.) continuing firmly in an opinion or course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition 堅持的
影片用句：Wow, he’s very persistent.
翻譯：哇，他很堅持。
Morally (adv.) with reference to the principles of right and wrong behavior 道德上的
影片用句：After a first date, you can morally ghost the other person without any explanation.
翻譯：在第一次約會後，你可以在道德上(無瑕疵的)不作任何解釋就消失。
Exclusive (adj.) (of a couple) not seeing other people (用來形容交往中的人時) 沒有同時和其他人交往
影片用句：We were also exclusive during this month.
翻譯：在這個月當中我們也是只有和對方交往的。
補充：exclusive本來是獨家的，或是僅限於某人或某群人的意思。延伸到情侶之間的感情變成沒有同時和別人交往的意思。跟在一起不一定一樣，通常是在一起前，已經從聊天、認識變成只有跟對方曖昧，不和別人說話的階段。
Exclusive (n.) an item or story published or broadcast by only one source 獨家的新聞貨報導
例句：He betrayed her trust in order to get an exclusive for his paper.
翻譯：他背叛了她的信任只為了替他的報紙取得獨家新聞。
Exclusive (adj.) restricted to the person, group, or area concerned 僅限於某人、群體或是範圍

Shut sb. down (phr. v.) to reject or strongly discourage someone 拒絕或是極力消除某人做某事的念頭
影片用句：I was shutting him down.

補充：這句話本身翻譯起來雖然沒有「不斷地」這個詞，但因為使用過去進行式，代表不是一次性而是三番兩次畫了一段時間的。
humiliated (adj.) made to feel ashamed or foolish cause one’s dignity and pride are injured 被羞辱的
影片用句：I was thinking, he would be so humiliated, he would stop bothering me.
翻譯：我當時在想，他應該會覺得如此的被羞辱而不再煩我。
