教案：

Hi! Welcome to class today. Our slang has to do with playing
欢迎来到今天的课程 我们今天的俚语和玩这个词有关系

So yes, a player can mean to…it can be someone who plays a game, or someone who even acts in a theater
一个player的意思可以是一个打游戏的人,或者一个在剧场里表演的人

but now it's starting to mean someone who plays with people: tricks them
不过它还有另外一个意思 就是一个人骗别人

Usually it's a guy when he wants to have a lot of girlfriends, because he tricks them into being with him
一般来讲是一个男生想有几个女朋友,因为他会骗她们和他好

Think of it as treating relationships as a game. If you just want to make people do things for you, then you might be a player
可以想成是把感情当作游戏,如果你只想别人付出,那你或许是一个player

You can say someone is a player, like, if you see a friend, if he, you know, likes to trick people into doing things for them
如果有一个朋友喜欢哄骗别人去为他做事,你可以说那个人是一个player

you can say, "hey, you know that guy over there? Be careful, he's kind of a player"
你可以说,看见那个家伙了吗？小心,他是一个玩弄感情的人

Or you can use it with a really close male friend. You can say, "hey, what up, playa"
你也可以用在一个和你关系特别好的男性朋友上,你可以说,怎么啦,伙计

But usually, someone being a player: it's…not really a good thing
但是一般说一个人是player不是一件好事

And when people "play" you, you "get played." It means that you get tricked into doing something you wouldn't normally do
当别人玩弄你的时候,你被玩弄,意思就是你被哄骗着去做一些你一般不会做的事情

For example, if I do not want to go running with my friend, because I'm super lazy
例如如果我不想去和我的朋友一起跑步,因为我特别懒

but she kept telling me that she would buy me ice cream afterwards, and I went running
但是她告诉我跑完步以后会给我买冰欺凌,然后我去和她跑步了

but it turns out she was lying about getting me ice cream afterwards, that I got played
但是她撒谎了,之后没有买冰欺凌,我就被玩弄了

And I could also tell someone later, "hey, you know how my friend said she would buy me ice cream after we went running
我以后可以告诉别人 你知道我的朋友说要在我们跑完步之后给我买冰欺凌吧？

Turns out she was totally playing me." So, now you know, "play" does not just mean "to play a game," it means "tricking," too
但是她只是在玩弄我。所以你现在知道了吧,play的意思不仅仅是玩,也是哄骗、玩弄的意思

That's our slang for today, now let's talk about sentence structure! Alright. So here's our example sentence
这就是我们今天的俚语,现在我们来讲句型吧。这是我们的例句

"Whenever the wind blows through the trees, it makes a loud rustling noise, like the wings of a thousand birds"
无论何时风吹过树梢,它都会有一阵瑟瑟声,听上去像很多鸟的翅膀

Whenever A does B, C happens. For example, whenever I turn on my computer, it makes a loud beeping noise. I should probably get a new one
无论何时A做B,C都会发生。例如 无论何时我打开我的电脑,它都会有一个响亮的哔哔声,我应该买一台新的了

Or, whenever she tries to call his number, no one picks up the phone
或者 无论何时她给他打电话,都没有人去接

That's our sentence structure for today. It's a very simple one, but if you want to try using it, please do
这就是我们今天的句型,比较简单。不过也是值得练习的

Now let's talk about etymology. Our root for today is "circ." C-I-R-C. C-I-R-C in Latin means, "a ring," or "round"
现在我们来讲词源吧。我们今天的词根是circ。在拉丁语里的意思是一个环,或者圆

You can easily think of a word that uses this root. Yup. Circle. Of course, circles are things that are round. In the shape of a ring
你可以很容易的想到一个词吧。对了,就是circle。当然,circle就是圆的

And what if you circulate? If you are at a party and you're circulating, what does that mean
Circulate是什么呢？如果你在一个聚会上circulate 是什么意思呢

Hmm..Well, you're walking around, Starting here, walking around, talking to lots of people, and then you come back
意思就是你来回走,从这里开始,和很多人聊天,然后又回到了原地

Same thing with your blood. It's circulating through your body right now
你的血液也是一样的,它现在在你的体内循环

It starts here, goes on some crazy path, and comes back
从这里开始,走一个很疯狂的路线,然后回来

And "circadian," is something that happens every 24 hours. We all have circadian rhythms, hopefully
Circadian（生理节奏的）是每24小时发生的事。我们都有生理节奏的规律

We wake up a certain time, we go to sleep a certain time, everything happens the same way every 24 hours
我们在固定的时间里起床,睡觉,在每个24小时里都是一样的

So our habits kind of move in a circle too. And one of my favorite words that uses this root is "circa"
我们的习惯也是在一个圈里进行的。我最喜欢的单词之一是circa（大约）

You might see this in history books, or especially in museums
你可能会在历史书里看到,或者博物馆里。

If you see an old vase from circa 1340 A.D. Then you know it's from around 1340. Get it
如果你看到一个花瓶是circa 1340,你就知道它是在大约1340年的时候制作的。知道了吧

Circa means around this time. Around? Like a circle? So I always thought that was kind of fun
Circa的意思就是大约。就像在一个圆圈的区域里。我觉得这个想法很有意思

So you know circ means ring, so you're moving in a circular fashion, or you know that a time is around some time
Circ是环的意思,你可以按照一个环型去走,或者你知道一个大约的时间
