FeifeiHello and welcome to Authentic Real English. 大家好，我是菲菲。

Rob… and me, Rob.

FeifeiRob，你是不是又忘了？

RobErr… forgotten what?

FeifeiWould you like me to jog your memory?

RobWhat? We're going jogging?

FeifeiNo, Rob. 我刚才说 “jog your memory”。这个表达的意思是 “唤起某人的记忆，提醒某人”。I need to jog your memory, Rob. Look, I'm wearing running shoes and a tracksuit – does that help you remember?

RobSo, you are going jogging!

FeifeiNo, I'm not going jogging. I'll tell you later. But let's hear some examples first.

ExamplesThe photo helped jog my memory, and I finally remembered the name of the restaurant we ate at.

Let me jog your memory about what special day it is today – it's our wedding anniversary!

Something she said jogged my memory about the thing I was meant to do after work.

Feifei在这期 “地道英语” 节目中，我们教给大家的表达是 “jog someone's memory”。上面的例句列举了 “jog someone's memory” 的用法，这里的 “someone” 也可以是 “我们自己”。比如：某事唤起我们对一件事情的记忆 “something helped jog my memory”。注意，这个表达多用在口语交流中。Rob, I was hoping by wearing this sports gear, you'd remember what we had arranged to do.

RobErr… go to the cafe? Go to a fancy-dress party?

FeifeiNo!

RobSorry, my mind is blank.

Feifei咱们说好录完节目后直接去健身房锻炼身体。I said come prepared so we don't waste any time.

RobOh, did you? Well, don't worry. I'll quickly go and get changed, and you can finish the programme, as we discussed.

FeifeiAs we discussed?

RobAh… shall I jog your memory now? The words… on the script?

FeifeiOh, yes! Join us again soon for another Authentic Real English. Bye.

RobBye.
