Name— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: 질문에 직접 답한 점은 좋지만, “call them you”는 부자연스러운 표현이므로 “call them by another name” 또는 “avoid using their names”처럼 말하는 것이 좋습니다. “people’s names”의 반복을 줄이고, 이유나 구체적인 상황을 연결어와 함께 덧붙이세요. 예를 들어, 새로운 사람을 한꺼번에 많이 만날 때 이름을 잊는다고 설명하면 답변이 더 효과적입니다.

Ví dụ: No, I find it quite difficult to remember people’s names, especially when I meet several new people at once. I usually forget their names shortly after being introduced, so I sometimes avoid using their names until I remember them.

Gợi ý: 답변이 “For example”에서 중단되어 내용이 완성되지 않았습니다. “people’s name”은 복수형인 “people’s names”로 고쳐야 하며, 이름을 기억하기 위해 실제로 사용하는 방법을 두 가지 정도 설명하세요. 예를 들어 이름을 반복해서 말하거나 머릿속으로 특정 특징과 연결한다고 말하면 구체성이 높아집니다.

Ví dụ: I try to use people’s names often during a conversation because repetition helps me remember them. For example, after someone introduces themselves, I repeat their name and connect it with a noticeable feature, such as their hairstyle or job.

Gợi ý: 상대방의 이름을 기억하지 못해도 괜찮다는 감정을 표현한 점은 적절하지만, “it’s okay to me”보다는 “I’m okay with it”이 자연스럽습니다. 또한 “but if”에서 문장이 끝나 답변이 불완전하므로, 상대방이 반복해서 이름을 틀리면 어떻게 느끼는지까지 완성하세요. “because”와 “however”를 사용해 일반적인 경우와 예외적인 경우를 명확히 연결하면 좋습니다.

Ví dụ: I’m usually okay with it because I also have trouble remembering people’s names. However, if someone has known me for a long time and still repeatedly calls me by the wrong name, I might feel a little disappointed.

Gợi ý: “Yes”로 직접 답하고 대학 시절의 경험을 제시한 점은 좋습니다. 하지만 “I really easily forget”은 “I forget people’s names very easily”로, “people’s name”은 “people’s names”로 수정해야 합니다. “There is Occore game”은 의미가 불분명하므로 정확한 게임명을 말하거나 “There was a name game”이라고 표현하고, 그 게임에서 왜 어려웠는지 설명하세요. 문장을 완성하고 과거 시제를 일관되게 사용하면 더 자연스럽습니다.

Ví dụ: Yes, I forget people’s names very easily, especially when I meet many people at the same time. When I was at university, we played a name game in which everyone had to remember the names of the other students. I was terrible at it because I often forgot names just a few minutes after hearing them.

× I try to call people's name often.

✓ I try to call people's names often.

The noun names should be plural because the speaker is referring to the names of multiple people. Use a plural noun after people's when referring to several individuals' names.

× For example

✓ For example, I try to use people's names often.

For example is only an introductory phrase and cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. Add a subject and a verb to complete the idea.

× Um, it's okay to me because I can't remember their name too but if

✓ Um, it's okay with me because I can't remember their names either.

The correct preposition after okay in this meaning is with, not to. We say something is okay with someone. Also, either is more natural than too in a negative sentence.

× Um, it's okay to me because I can't remember their name too but if

✓ Um, it's okay with me because I can't remember their names either.

Names should be plural because their refers to multiple people's names in this context. Use their names when discussing the names of several people.

× Um, it's okay to me because I can't remember their name too but if

✓ Um, it's okay with me because I can't remember their names either.

The sentence ends with the incomplete conjunction if, so the structure is unfinished. Remove if unless you are going to add a complete conditional clause.

× Yes, I really easily forget people's name.

✓ Yes, I forget people's names very easily.

Names should be plural because people's refers to more than one person. The corrected sentence also uses a natural adverb position.

× Yes, I really easily forget people's name.

✓ Yes, I forget people's names very easily.

The adverb phrase very easily sounds more natural at the end of this sentence. Placing it after the object makes the sentence clearer and more natural.

× So when I was in university.

✓ So, when I was in university, there was an Occore game.

When I was in university is a dependent time clause and cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. It must be connected to an independent clause.

× There is Occore game and I'm very bad at name games.

✓ There was an Occore game, and I was very bad at name games.

The correct past form of there is is there was because the sentence refers to a time when the student was at university. Use there was with a singular noun.

× There is Occore game and I'm very bad at name games.

✓ There was an Occore game, and I was very bad at name games.

The event happened when the speaker was in university, so the past tense was is required instead of the present tense is. The verb was is also used to keep the time reference consistent.

× There is Occore game and I'm very bad at name games.

✓ There was an Occore game, and I was very bad at name games.

A singular countable noun needs an article. Because Occore begins with a vowel sound, use the article an before it.
