black english

Everybody in the English-speaking world uses the phrase “what’s up.” While black people might make the phrase sound cool, there is a context that must be understood. In this episode, we’ll be respecting the culture not mocking it. 看到黑人總是想說Yo Yo Yo！其實是錯的？ 時不時就聽到人家說What's up，但根本不知道怎麼用，也不會回答？ 這集就是為你而生啦！ Please give us a 5 star + nice comments + tag us on Instagram, and we'll send you a lovely gift :) 歡迎幫我們打五星＋留言＋分享IG tag @2.please.english ，我們將會送出精美禮物唷！ Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/2.please.english/ Emily in Paris 艾蜜莉在巴黎美劇團班：https://www.accupass.com/event/2202251529451456911438
