Some people are too busy texting to talk. With the huge rise of mobile phones in recent decades, communicating by text has become more and more popular. Neil and Georgina talk about why people often choose to text, instead of talk to the people in their lives.

어떤 사람들은 문자를 보내느라 너무 바빠서 말을 할 수 없습니다. 최근 수십 년 사이 휴대전화가 크게 늘면서 문자로 소통하는 것이 점점 인기를 끌고 있습니다. Neil과 Georgina는 왜 사람들이 그들의 삶에서 사람들과 대화하는 대신에 종종 문자 메시지를 보내는 것을 선택하는지에 대해 이야기합니다.

새내기할배 블로그가 제안하는 영어단어 암기법은 기본적으로 문장을 통해 암기하는 것입니다. 그래서 설명하는 모든 단어마다 본문도 함께 제시됩니다. 그러나 새로 나온다고 해서 모든 단어를 무한정 암기할 수는 없습니다. 그래서 암기해야 해야 할 단어와 이해만 하고 넘어갈 단어를 구분하는 지혜가 필요합니다.

[BBC Leaning English] 6 Minute English - Why do we choose to text instead of talk?에 수록된 영어단어 수는
