Hello and welcome to the English We Speak.

大家好，歡迎收看《道地英文》。

Now, Fei Fei, can you help me with this social media post I'm trying to write?

Fei Fei，你能幫我寫這篇社群貼文嗎？

Well, I want to post something about how tired I am

我想發一篇貼文，說我有多累，

because I've been working so hard and how I just can't go on.

因為我工作太辛苦，已經快撐不下去了。

It looks like you're looking for sympathy.

I just want to tell people how exhausted I am because I'm so hard working.

我只是想告訴大家我多麼疲憊，因為我真的很努力工作。

不是啦，Rob，你是在釣取同情心。

When someone is sadfishing, they're exaggerating their emotional problems,

Sadfishing 指的是有人誇大自己的情緒問題，

particularly via social media, so they get sympathy or attention from others.

尤其是在社群媒體上，以獲取他人的同情或注意。

Right, well, I'm going to send my post now.

我們來看看一些 sadfishing 的例子。

He got lots of likes for his post about having no friends, but

他發了一篇說自己沒朋友的貼文，獲得很多讚，

I don't know if Heidi really has a problem with her skin.

我不確定 Heidi 的皮膚問題是真的還是假的，

I think she's just sadfishing and wants attention.

我覺得她只是在 sadfishing 想引起注意。

Some people say there's a growing trend for sadfishing and people just share their worries online to get noticed.

有人說 sadfishing 越來越流行，人們只是把煩惱分享到網路上以引起關注。

但我在想，這也可能是一種求救訊號。

This is the English We Speak from BBC Learning English.

這是 BBC 學英文的《道地英文》。

And we're talking about the expression sadfishing,

今天我們要介紹 sadfishing 這個表達，

which describes when someone exaggerates their emotional problems,

意思是有人誇大自己的情緒問題，

particularly on social media, to get sympathy or attention.

尤其是在社群媒體上，以獲取同情或關注。

我才不是在 sadfishing 呢，飛飛。

I'm just telling people about my terrible life so they understand.

我只是讓大家了解我悲慘的生活而已。

Oh, and look, I've received a comment already.

He says, "Stop moaning. I work even harder every weekend and every evening.

他說：「別抱怨了，我每個周末和每晚都工作更辛苦，

不過沒關係，因為我喜歡我的工作。」

Trying to get someone to say something good about him.

就是想讓別人說些好話給他聽。

No, he's just sad. Working at the weekends.

不，他只是週末工作很辛苦而已。
