【一起闲话英语】你是一名很好的舞者吗？-Are you a good dancer?

Edwin, Australia

speaker Am I a good dance? No, I am a terrible dancer. If you talk about break-dancing, I would actually break something, if I went to a club, I'd stay at the bar more. Although, friends have tried to teach me a bit of moves, or some moves, I am still just very terrible at it.

 

Jess, United Kingdom

speaker Yes, I am a good dancer. I love dancing. I love music. That's a big stress release¹ for me, to go out and dance the night away, and I love getting dressed up in dancing clothes and high heels and sparkles² and glitter³.

 

David, Kenya

speaker Am I a good dancer? Yeah, I think I am, depending on the person I am dancing with, yeah, I think I'm a good dancer and I love dancing. I've loved dancing since I was a kid, and I still do. I don't think I am going to stop anytime soon.

 

Chrystal, United States

speaker I consider myself as an Okay dancer, I guess. I've been working out these days and I think my favorite way to work out is to close all the curtains and just blast⁴ out my favorite songs and just dance in my room, but I won't let anybody see it except for my cat.

 

George, United States

speaker A good dancer? Well, that depends. Are you talking about real dancing or Dance Dance Revolution the video game, because I am a monster at Dance Dance Revolution. Real dancing not so much though.

 

Hana, Australia

speaker I'm not a very good dancer. I'm very uncordinated, so whenever I try to dance, I know what I want to do in my mind, but as soon as I try and do it with my hands, it just looks completely different.
