作为母语是中文的英语学习者，特别是英语初学者，想必经常遇到的一大难题就是难以规避的Chinglish表达。我们的母语环境在每一位学习者身上都刻上了深深的烙印，产生了极具标志性的影响。这样的影响从表面来看在于语言，从深层来看，其实在于思维。细心并且渴求突破学习瓶颈的你，一定还记得前不久分享给大家的“体验式学习法“。想必大家也了解到：体验式学习法的要点之一是培养英语思维，将英语学习切实地联系到自身的生活体验和经历中。教研君一直秉承这样的观点：语言学习的最终目的是交流，活学活用才是根本之道。因此如何让我们所讲的英语真正为native的老外所听懂，是我们进行英语交流的最初出发点也是最终归宿。
可是一讲到交流，大家就要哭诉：“老外讲的话明明每个词我都认识，但连起来我就是搞不清楚正确的意思。”或者：“我讲的话没有错啊，和我构想的中文意思一字不差、一一对应呢，可是为什么老外就是听不懂？”小伙伴们，这就是我们所说的文化和思维差异啦。简单地说，为了达到语言交流的目的，我们就要有意地规避明显存在的文化和思维差异，尽可能地贴近目标语言惯用的表达方式。在本文中，教研君暂且将这些惯用的表达方式称作“俚语”（实际上，依据不同标准，对于“俚语”一词的定义也是不一的）。本文整理了一些与人际交往相关的常用俚语。不用多说，直接上表格。绝对精华，值得小伙伴们猛烈收藏！
