【「季」、「集」、「續集」怎麼說？】

我發現大家對上週的「追劇」很有興趣，但也發現很多人不太會用英文說「季」、「集」、「續集」，沒問題，交給我！
_______________

「季」的英文是 season, /ˈsizṇ/, 就是一年所有的秀。

有些人以為，因為是 season (季)，一年可能會有三、四個 season. 不是喔！若指的是電視節目，一個 season 就是一年。（這個可能會有些例外，我們不用管！）比方說，《六人行》拍了十年，就有十個 seasons.

I just finished the second season of “The Simpsons”. It was so funny.
(我剛看完了《辛普森一家》第二季，好好笑。)

很多美國的電視節目，很成功的話，就會繼續拍。《辛普森一家》就已經拍到了第27季！ “The Simpsons” is in its 27th season!
_______________

「集」就是 episode /ˈɛp ə ˌsod/.

I’ve got Season 9, Episode 16 of “Friends” on DVD. It’s pretty good. I’ll lend it to you.
(我有《六人行》的第9季第16集的DVD，還不錯，我會借你。)
______________

有人問我，那「續集」呢？很簡單，就是 sequel /ˈsik wəl/

不過！我們需要分清楚電視跟電影。通常 sequel 是電影用的，不是電視用的！

比方說，Iron Man （鋼鐵人）很賣座，然後他們就拍 Iron Man 2. Iron Man 2 就是個 sequel.

注意！第二集是 the first sequel. 第三集是 the second sequel. 因為第一集不是個 sequel! 所以，鋼鐵人有三部電影，但只有 two sequels:

Iron Man
Iron Man 2 (the first sequel)
Iron Man 3 (the second sequel)

第一部不算！拿《玩命關頭》來說，系列有 7 部電影，但只有 6 個 sequels. 都要減 1.

書也會用 sequel. 如：

Angels and Demons is a sequel to the best-selling novel The Da Vinci Code.
(《地獄》是暢銷書《達文西密碼》的續集。)

電視連續劇不太會說 sequel. 我們會直接說 Episode 2, Episode 3, Episode 4 等。

好了，不要使你的記憶力負擔。不過，如果有別的關於電視或電影系列，你當然可以在下面問。

You have finished your English homework for today. You may now watch one episode of your favorite TV show. Bye!

小編心水...當然是Mr Robot的Rami Malek和Daily Talk Show 的John Oliver.
