如果是一百年前我會說你不要亂用這個字，but now 它是一個讚美？ Hustle 一字來自十七世紀荷蘭文，指「搖晃、抖、丟」。後來延伸為搶劫，把錢從別人身上搖出來（搖錢樹？🌳）。 傳到美國後，此字演變成俗語的「詐騙」，to hustle or a hustler 以不正當手段去賺錢，尤其指街頭上的皮條客（pimp）、賭博者。 但是快轉到二十一世紀，變成努力掙錢、動作很快、很殷勤的意思，第一次出現了正面的說法。 1. Hustle and bustle 城市的喧囂、熱鬧的氣氛 2. Hustle! 快一點！趕快！動作快！ 3. Side hustle 副業或斜槓 4. Hustler 努力掙錢，尤其在街頭上擺攤叫賣的人；東跑西跑的創業家；很會幹活的人；拼命三郎 例句 - When I lived in Taipei, I enjoyed the hustle and bustle. 我住在台北的時候很享受城市的熱鬧氣氛 - Hustle! We're gonna miss the train! 快一點！要錯過火車了！ - I knit as a side hustle. During the day I am actually an accountant. 針織是我的副業，平常我是會計師 - My mom is a real hustler. She works at a breakfast shop and after that she has a night market stand. 我媽是個很會幹的人，白天做早餐店，晚上擺夜市 在《A.R.T.S》的第二堂課「我的學習說明書」我們學一個團隊中的不同角色：文青、駭客和商業家，第三者就是用 Hustler 來做比喻。現在你知道它的字源了！ ✏️ 你身邊有這種很拼命的人嗎？ 拿他/她來在留言區造句 ⬇️

這兩天開始收到 ARTS 第二集「我的學習說明書」作業，看到大家反思的過程，讓我感受到這一集的功能慢慢開始發酵囉！ Register 我們通常知道的是「登記」的意思，慣用詞有： - register a car 登記一台車（在美國沒有戶籍，所以搬家到其他州不用『遷戶籍』，但是你必須到當地的監理所『DMV』去登記你的車牌，換牌照、更新駕照） - register for a class （報名一堂課需要介係詞 for） - cash register 收銀台 - register to vote 登記投票（美國人需要去當地市政府或相關機構登記和更新資料後才可投票） 但是這個字還有延伸用法：記住，像是「登記在腦海裡」 例如：I heard it but it didn't register. 真的是「有聽沒有懂」的最好翻譯 - ✏️請下方留言，回答問題：How does new information get registered in your head? 新資訊如何在你的腦海裡被記下來？ 範例 - New information gets registered when I see something and then practice it by doing it myself. - I am good at figuring out complex concepts by reading the explanations. Then I write or draw the key words and main ideas to [remember, register] them in a simple way.  - A warm and friendly atmosphere helps me [remember, register] what we discussed and clarify what I want to explore. 👑 以上範例改寫自大家的A.R.T.S「學習說明書」作業。我收到了幾個很棒的回覆，很驚訝的是，很多人都是觸覺型（tactile）😯 👑 現在加入《A.R.T.S 打造英文自我》解鎖自己的強項！

I work at home mostly. I can control my working hours and my days off. I do the grocery shopping and take care of the place where we live. Sometimes, I imagine I’m a chef, a cleaner, a barista, or a space organizer. And most importantly, I serve my BIG BABY! I do a little bit of everything!

It’s difficult to describe my job～because I’m not even sure what my job is! 😆 Today I chose an easy one to guess. 1. I don’t have regular work hours. I usually work after others get off work. 2. I work with all kinds of people, but what they have in common is that they care about their quality of life and body, mind, and spirit. 3. I focus on feelings and awareness, and the most important thing is that people never believe me when I say it's the last time!

I’m a 24/7 punching bag for 29days blamed for every office error. But on the 30th day, I press one button and instantly become everyone’s favorite superhero.
