Hello everyone, and welcome back to English with Lucy.
Hello 大家好，歡迎回到跟著 Lucy 學英語。
Today, I have another pronunciation video for you.
今天，我又要為你們帶來一個關於發音的視頻。
I'm going to be going through all of the English place names that are really hard to pronounce, and I'm going to be letting you in on some secrets.
我將要講到所有很難發音的英國地名，而且我會告訴你們一些秘密。
Yes, I'm going to be giving you some rules, and if you take note, and if you learn them, hopefully, pronouncing English place names should be a lot easier, and to make it a little bit more fun and to allow you guys to laugh at yourselves, I've made it a quiz.
是的，我會教你們一些規則，如果你做筆記，如果你學習它們，那麼很有可能，讀出這些地名會更容易，為了使這節課更有趣並且讓你們笑自己，我設計了一個小測試。
So you can comment below with your score.
所以你可以在下面發評論，帶上你的分數。
I'm basically going to give you a little bit of time to guess the pronunciation before I tell you what it is.
基本上我會在告訴你們正確的讀音之前給你一點時間猜一猜。
Let's see how many you get wrong.
讓我們看看你錯了多少。
Oh sorry, I should be more motivational, let's see how many you get right.
對不起，我應該鼓勵你們，讓我們看看你有多少是對的。
