· Explain it to me like I'm 5 (years old).
: 源于网络流行文化,现已成为通用口语。
· 语气: 轻松、幽默,略带自嘲。表明你对某个领域是“小白”,需要从最基础的概念讲起。
· 使用场景: 适合非正式场合,或与关系较近的同事、朋友沟通时使用。
· "This blockchain concept is going over my head. Explain it to me like I'm 5."
2. 直接了当的请求

比上一种更直接,但仍然友好。Kindergarten version 比 simple version 更强调极致的简化
· "Your project timeline looks complex. Can you give me the kindergarten version of the key milestones?"
· Break it down for me.
· 把它拆解开来跟我讲讲。
· 语气: 中性、实用。请求对方将复杂整体分解为易懂的步骤或部分。

3. 礼貌且通用的请求
· Could you simplify this for me?
· 语气: 最正式、最安全、最万能的选择。适用于几乎所有场合,尤其是工作、学术或与陌生人交流时。
· "The technical report is quite dense. Could you simplify the main findings for me in a couple of bullet points?"
· Could you make this super simple for me?
您能为我讲得超级简单吗?
· 在礼貌的框架内(使用Could you)强调了“超级简单”的需求,比 simplify 程度更深。
