Chapter 312 Tian Lao and Tianshan Tong Lao (15, please recommend and vote monthly)

Although he did not go to filming, Yang Yi lived a very fulfilling life at home.

Because in addition to thinking about how to adapt the script, he also has to accompany his wife every day, giving "classes" and prenatal education to the little one who is still in the belly!
In the morning, Li Mengfei teaches the baby English.

"On this day, Rose woke up to discover that he was hungry. As Rose dressed, he and his tummy sang a song together that included words like 'sweet' and 'eat'."

The "textbook" she used was an English fairy tale picture book bought by Yang Yi.

Yang Yi also chanted along.

I have to say that after all, Li Mengfei lived in the United States for several years when she was a child, and later went to Hollywood for two years to develop. Therefore, her English speaking skills are very good, and she sounds very natural, almost as well as foreigners.

Yang Yi is not so good. He learned "pure" Chinese English. Not only is his pronunciation not standard, but he also has big problems with the rhythm and intonation of the sentences.

Li Mengfei corrected him several times and guided him to speak more accurately.

Anyway, teaching one baby is also teaching, and raising Yang Yi is also teaching two. Interacting with Yang Yi, the "prenatal education" work of the two is quite interesting.

"What do you mean? What it's saying is, today, Ross realized he was hungry. As he was getting dressed, he and his stomach sang a song together, with lyrics like 'honey,' Eat', such a word."

Li Mengfei was sitting in the sunlit living room, reading a picture book while gently stroking her bulging belly.

Her voice was very gentle, and her face didn't know whether it reflected the sunlight reflected off the tiles, or was filled with warm maternal radiance, and her eyes were filled with love for her baby.

"'Aware'? Doesn't this wake up mean wake up?"

Yang Yi was a little puzzled.

Although he is not a great academic, and he did not listen carefully to a few English classes in high school, but wake up is the past tense of wake up, and he can still understand these simple words.

"Wake up to means to be aware of, to recognize, and there is a special phrase like this."

Li Mengfei smiled.

"No, look at this picture. This little bear got up sitting on the bed, and he was still wearing a nightcap. At this time, he lifted up his clothes and looked at his growling belly. It should mean he woke up. Yes, otherwise why would you draw it like this?"

Yang Yi's idea is very simple. He just looks at the pictures in the picture books and infers the meaning in English.

It doesn't matter whether you understand English or not.

"It seems that what you said makes sense! There is also a discover after this. If wake up to means awareness, the meaning of discover overlaps with it. Well, it must be that after getting up, I found that I was very hungry. , this is the correct translation.”

Li Mengfei thought about it carefully and found that Yang Yi was right.

Although he doesn't know English and is clumsy when reading, his logical thinking ability is very good, and he can actually deduce the meaning of the word backwards!
"Daddy is still awesome. Baby, you have to learn from daddy and be a smart, studious, and very motivated person!"

Li Mengfei gently stroked her belly and praised Yang Yi with a smile to the baby in her belly.

"Why is dad so smart? My dad's grades are very poor, but my mom is the best. My mom's grades were the best when she was in the United States!"

Yang Yi and Li Mengfei were talking to each other about business.

"But my mother has become stupid now. She is too lazy to use her brain when reading English to her baby."

Li Mengfei sighed. When she just translated the sentence, she just followed the words and sentences and translated them casually, regardless of whether the content and logic were correct or not.

"That's because of pregnancy, which is affected by progesterone. Don't worry, you will definitely recover quickly after giving birth to the baby! Moreover, maybe the baby will bring you blessings and make you happier and happier. The younger you are!”

Yang Yi said this deliberately.

Instill in your daughter-in-law the idea that she will become younger in advance. When the time comes, she will find that her health is getting better and she seems to be getting younger, and she will not be too surprised.

Moreover, because Yang Yi said it in advance, Li Mengfei might still believe it and attribute the credit to the child, so that Yang Yi would not need to rack his brains to find excuses for her to explain this problem.

"How is it possible? I'm already 37, why am I getting younger and younger? It's already great if I can give birth to the baby smoothly!" Of course, now Li Mengfei thought Yang Yi was joking, and she smiled angrily.

In addition to learning English, Yang Yi gives prenatal education to the baby in the afternoon and evening.

In the afternoon, he read poems to the baby.

"Haike talks about Yingzhou, Yantao is faint and letter is hard to find;

The more people speak Tianmu, the clouds can be seen or faded.

Tianmu swept the sky toward the sky, pulling up the five mountains to cover the Chicheng.

The rooftop is [-] feet high, so it is tilted to the southeast."

"Last night the rain cleared the wind,
Deep sleep can't eliminate residual wine.

Try the questionnaire,
But Begonia remained the same.

Do you know?
It should be green, fat, red and thin. "

From Tang poetry to Song poetry, Yang Yi had never been so serious when he was in school.

Not only did he read in a cadence and shake his head, but the book was even filled with notes!

There are classical Chinese meanings, and there are also pinyin signs for fear of mispronunciation.

For example, the word "Lao" in Tianmu is not pronounced as "lao" (lao), but as "mu" (mu) of mother.

"Why do you read mu? Isn't it normal to read lao?"

Li Mengfei still felt a little confused.

"The word "grandma" is a polyphonic character. When pronounced "lao", it means grandmother. It has only one meaning. But if it is used to describe an old woman, it must be pronounced "mu".

Yang Yi explained.

"On that day, should I remember Tianshan Tonglao or Tianshan Tongmu?"

Li Mengfei actually drew inferences from one instance.

No way, who made her obsessed with martial arts novels recently? Tianshan Child Elder is a relatively classic character in "Tian Long Ba Bu". As soon as Yang Yi read the word "Tian Mu", she immediately thought of Tianshan Child Elder.

When Yang Yi read "Dragon and the Eight Parts" to her, he read Tianshan Tonglao, the pronunciation of "lao"!

"Well, Tianmu is Tianmu, and Tianshan Tongmu is Tianshan Tongmu. Tianmu refers to Tianmu Mountain. This is a rule that people have formed, and Tianmu Mountain should be remembered. But Tianshan Tongmu is Tianshan Miaomiao. Master of Peak Lingjiu Palace, Tong Lao is an innovative word, so just pronounce Tong Lao."

Yang Yi was almost stopped by his wife's question. He scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

It's not his fault.

This is how it is pronounced in TV dramas, "Tianshan Tong Lao". I have never heard of "Tianshan Tong Lao mu" pronounced like this!
But it seems that judging from the meaning of the word, the word "tonglao" should refer to an old woman with a childlike face. It is more accurate to pronounce "tongmu".

How should we pronounce it accurately?

Yang Yi was a little confused.

However, Yang Yi is more willing to follow the reading method of the original work, and perhaps he should read Tong Lao. (Note 1)

Li Mengfei snickered, but did not reveal that he had learned this poem when he was studying. He probably didn't understand the pronunciation of the word "grandma", so he made the mistake.

Otherwise, why would the book be marked just now?
However, it's not bad to say "Tianshan Tongmu". Li Mengfei has long been accustomed to this way of reciting it. If she really wants to change her mouth to "Tianshan Tongmu", she doesn't feel that way anymore.

(Note 1: It is true that Tianshan Tong Lao should be pronounced, because the use of repeated words appears many times in the book, such as Tong Lao, or Tianshan Tong Lao scolding others: I am your grandma, etc. Although Yang Yi has studied The original work, but it is impossible to cover everything.)
