【话匣子英语】采访安德鲁的朋友

（单词翻译）

今天采访的嘉宾是安德鲁的朋友马希尔，他的公寓很特别，和普通公寓有什么不同呢

Andrew: So, I’m here today with my friend Marshall. Marshall, what’s up?

 

Marshall: Uh, not a lot. I’m being interviewed and that’s nice.

 

Andrew: Yeah. Thanks so much for agreeing to do this.

 

Marshall: No problem, my pleasure.

 

Andrew: We’re recording¹ today in your apartment.

 

Marshall: Yes.

 

Andrew: And your apartment is a little bit different than a regular apartment because it’s a loft² apartment.

 

Marshall: Yes, a loft.

 

Andrew: A loft. And what is the difference between a regular apartment and a loft apartment?

 

Marshall: I would say that a loft apartment is different in that it has more space. It’s often a space with tall ceilings and less rooms than a normal apartment.

 

Andrew: Mmhmm. More, like, of an open layout?

 

Marshall: Yeah. Open concept, I would call it.

 

Andrew: Nice. Yeah, the ceilings are really high in here. It’s, like, double the height of my apartment, probably.

 

Marshall: Yeah. I wonder if you can hear the difference.

 

Andrew: Yeah. There’s probably good acoustics³ in here.

 

Marshall: Not the best, actually.

 

Andrew: Oh, really?

 

Marshall: You’d be surprised.

 

Andrew: Yeah. And so, your apartment is really just two rooms but it’s quite big.

 

Marshall: Yeah. I’d say, compared to many other apartments of my friends, I’d say it’s more, like, square feet. It’s actually more, like, area… more area than other spaces.

 

Andrew: Yeah.

 

Marshall: But it’s just mainly one big room
