主持人的话：①Michael Erard points out that all languages give speakers a way to indicate some sort of delay.
HINTS
uh
um
eh
ano
este"People who have studied speech patterns notice that there are really two groups of people: one group that says 'uh' or 'um' more frequently and another group that their sentences and they also repeat words more frequently. People who say 'uh' or 'um' are not necessarily uneducated or unprepared or unintelligent, in the same way that people who don't use filler words are necessarily more intelligent or competent."
"In many languages it's a word like 'um' or 'uh,' that kind of neutral vowel. In some languages, it's 'eh', that's Hebrew. In French, vowels are a little rounded, so it's 'oo.' There are other languages that take a word that actually means something and they repurpose it for the filler word. So in Japanese the thinking word is 'ano,' which means 'this' or 'that.' So you'll hear people say 'ano, ano, ano.' In Spanish, it's 'este'. And it's something that people have to learn. Children have to learn it. And adults who are learning a language as a foreign language would be better off learning how to pause and delay and make the thinking sound in that language."
