Take a quick tipple and you could find yourself speaking a second tongue more naturally, according to new research.

一项新研究证明，小酌一番可以让你说起外语来更加流利。

The foreign language skills of participants in the study were found to be improved after a drink of alcohol, which suggests the way booze can put us at ease outweighs the negative effects on our brain – at least for the first drink, anyway.

研究发现，受访者饮酒后外语技能有所增强，这表明酒精能让我们进入放松的状态，从而克服大脑中的不适感。

The international team of researchers is warning against reading too much into their experiment, but it could reveal some interesting insights into the anxiety associated with speaking another language, and how alcohol can help us overcome it.

这只跨国研究队伍告诫人们不要对他们的实验太过较真，不过这项研究还是揭示了一些有趣的现象，让我们了解到说外语时产生的焦虑感，以及酒精如何能帮助人们克服这种焦虑感。

"Our study shows that acute alcohol consumption may have beneficial effects on the pronunciation of a foreign language in people who recently learned that language," says one of the team.

“我们的研究发现，那些近期学习了一门新外语的人在急剧的摄取了酒精之后会有意外的收益，他们的外语发音会更加流利。”研究团队中的一名成员这样说道。
