Name— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Soruyu doğrudan yanıtlayın ve tekrarları azaltın. “Bad to remember” yerine “bad at remembering” kullanın; ayrıca “people’s names or faces” ifadesi yeterlidir. Bir neden ekleyerek cevabı iki veya üç cümlede tamamlayın.

Ejemplo: No, I’m not very good at remembering people’s names or faces. I have a poor memory, so I often need to meet someone a few times before I remember their name.

Sugerencia: Cevabınızın başındaki “I can remember” ifadesi, önceki cevabınızla çelişiyor; ne zaman hatırlamakta zorlandığınızı açıklayın. “Like” tekrarlarını ve yarım kalan son kısmı çıkarın. İsimleri hatırlamak için kullandığınız yöntemi açıkça belirtin; örneğin ismi tekrarlamak veya sohbet sırasında kullanmak.

Ejemplo: I usually remember a name better if I use it in conversation. If I meet someone several times, I also make a conscious effort to repeat their name in my head.

Sugerencia: Duygunuzu doğrudan ifade edin; burada “I feel nice” yerine “I don’t mind” daha doğal olur. “I don’t feel nothing” gibi çift olumsuz yapıları kullanmayın. Karşı tarafın utanabileceğini ve bu yüzden anlayışlı davrandığınızı kısa, bağlantılı cümlelerle açıklayın.

Ejemplo: I don’t mind very much because I sometimes forget names too. I know people can feel embarrassed, so I try to be understanding and simply remind them of my name if necessary.

Sugerencia: Soruya doğrudan ve doğal biçimde yanıt vermişsiniz, ancak cevap çok kısa. Bir neden veya kısa bir örnek ekleyerek yanıtı geliştirin; yine de gereksiz ayrıntı eklemeyin.

Ejemplo: Yes, I often forget people's names, especially when I meet several new people at once. I usually remember them better after I’ve spoken to them a few times.

× Actually I am very bad to remember people names or their faces my memory is not that good actually I have some trouble to memorize everything even to people's face or their names.

✓ Actually, I am very bad at remembering people's names or faces. My memory is not very good; I have trouble remembering names and faces.

The phrase is bad at, not bad to, when describing difficulty with an activity. Use at before a gerund, such as remembering. The original also joins several complete thoughts without punctuation, so separate them into clear sentences.

× Actually I am very bad to remember people names or their faces my memory is not that good actually I have some trouble to memorize everything even to people's face or their names.

The speaker describes a general or repeated situation, so the past-tense saw does not fit. Use the present-tense see in the if-clause.

✓ That's why I try to address people without using their names. If I see someone every day for about an hour, I can memorize their name, but...

The original joins separate ideas without a clear grammatical connection and ends with an incomplete but not. Put the ideas into separate sentences and complete the final thought when possible.

× It's really I know they feel really embarrassed for they didn't remember my name.

✓ I know they feel really embarrassed when they don't remember my name.

It's really I know does not form a complete, clear sentence structure. Start with I know and connect the reason for their embarrassment with when.

× That's why I don't feel nothing I don't tell nothing.

✓ That's why I don't feel anything, and I don't say anything.

In standard English, use anything with a negative verb such as don't. Using don't and nothing together creates a double negative. Also, say is the natural verb when referring to saying nothing.
