Jeewon이 Mike에게 “What’s wrong? 너 무슨 일 있니?”라고 묻자 Mike가 “Uh~! I feel like giving up on looking for a new job. 아무래도 새 일자리 찾는 거 포기해야 할까 봐. I have applied to so many job positions these past few months but none of those companies want to hire me. 몇 달 새 그렇게 많은 곳에 지원했는데 아무 데서도 불러주질 않는 거야.” 라며 낙심하네요. 그러자 Jeewon이 “Don’t lose heart. 마이크, 낙담하지 마. Keep on trying. 꾸준히 찾아봐! 포기하지 말고!”라고 격려해주더라고요. 그러자 Mike는 “I’ll try not to lose heart. 알았어. 자신감을 가질게. Thanks for encouraging me. 격려해줘서 고마워.” 라고 대답하더라고요.

오늘 영어표현은 to lose heart입니다. To lose heart means to lose one’s confidence or courage; to give up hope or get discouraged. 단어 ‘heart’는 심장을 뜻하죠? 그렇지만 ‘to lose heart’라는 표현에서 heart는 ‘용기, 자신감’이라는 뜻으로 쓰입니다. 그래서 to lose heart는 용기를 잃다, 낙담하다 라는 의미가 되죠. Also, please keep in mind that the following expression ‘to lose your heart (to somebody or something) means completely different than the phrase ‘to lose heart’. ‘To lose your heart’ means to fall in love and ‘to lose heart’ means to get discouraged and to give up hope in something. Let me give you an example. 예를 들어볼까요? Henry, don’t lose heart now. Keep on trying and you will succeed one day.라고 하면 헨리, 너무 낙담하지 마. 계속 노력하면 언젠가는 성공할 거야. 라는 뜻이 됩니다. Now you know what it means to lose heart right? Then we will now listen to the conversation for the last time.
