我已经不数自己会多少种方言了，因为我学过的实在是太多太多种了。

大多数时间我都在为舞台工作。现在我也开始做电视配音了。

One of the I think that I took to voice work and work is I'm more in tune with .

我选择做声音和方言这方面的工作，一个原因就是我对听觉更加敏感。

So are like, “Oh, you have .”

大家经常都会说，“哇，你的听觉好好啊。”

我其实不喜欢这种说法，因为听着好像我们是听觉超人是超胆侠似的。

Oh, you're just like . No.

哇，你好像超胆侠噢！才没有。

但如果我太直白的话，他可能就不会爱我了，我也拿不准。”

For you want to sort of feel like you some in back of the mouth.

俄罗斯口音的话，听上去感觉有种发音在口腔后部被吞掉了的感觉。

我跟我朋友就这么说话。

如今，我们生活在一个充斥着各种各样没有情感的声音世界里。

我喜欢结识新的朋友，听他们说话。
