某天大陸同學丟給我一個字"gelivable"，結果我就傻眼了，看不懂。
我的英文很差，所以遇到看不懂的字很正常。不過對方傳來的這句話只有一個字，我又不好意思問對方，這樣似乎顯得我真的字彙太少，所以我決定用線上字典來查查。

（"名家專欄"編輯部已經同意額外提供我的專欄四首詩的音檔空間讓讀者們可以聽到聲音，由於我目前短期將留在北京處理事情，能否請讀者稍微耐心等待一下，最遲8月中旬一定不會讓讀者們失望的，謝謝！） 前兩周介紹了兩首入門的英詩-"老虎之歌"和"星星之歌"之後，我才想到應當說明一些欣賞英詩的基本知識，以便有心的讀者可以自行練習體會，在此先為我的疏忽致歉。詩歌最基本的要素就是音樂和想象，中英詩皆然。音樂部分最主要的是節奏和押韻，我們先從節奏說起吧！相信大家都讀過中文詩，由於漢語是一字一音節，所以字數的規則就形成自然的節奏，譬如： |
