把上一課身體不舒服的說法還有一些給忠告的方式捉出來放在單字整理，跟剛剛是一樣的內容。
突然想到又補了上了。同學身體不舒服請不要說 I don’t feel comfortable. 英文的 comfortable 是舒適，舒服，比方說 Sitting on a sofa is more comfortable than sitting on a bench. 坐在沙發比坐板凳舒服。比方說外面又濕又冷的冬天，在家的床上可舒服是可以說 I was so comfortable and warm in bed I didn’t want to get up. 這是 longman dictionary 的範例。總之呢，假如說身體不舒服，請用 I don’t feel well. 或I feel sick. 不要忘了喔！希望大家都不必用到這個句子:)
再來提醒同學要整個句子句型一起記。不要只記單字，我頭痛不可以說I headache. 錯，要用固定用法 I have a headache. 為什麼要有a ，恩，這個呢，因為在英文裡面單數可數名詞前面一定要有一個冠詞像 a, the, my等等。為什麼sunburn不加a，因為很大片所以不可數，mosquito bites 因為蚊子一次都咬很多包，所以複數加s，那為什麼 insomnia 失眠不可數，不加a 或s，這，這，我就覺得很難解釋了，所以呢有時候同學真的不用想太多，要知道語言是arbitary，任意性的，真的沒有為什麼，就像法文的陰性跟陽性，法國人有時候也解釋不出來，所以呢就一個句子一個句子記，或者是以片語的方式，這樣才不會錯喔！加油！
