Feifei
Hello and welcome to Authentic Real English. 大家好，我是菲菲。
Rob
… and me, Rob.
Feifei
Rob，你是不是又忘了？
Rob
Err… forgotten what?
Feifei
Would you like me to jog your memory?
Rob
What? We're going jogging?
Feifei
No, 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?
Rob
So, you are going jogging!
Feifei
No, I'm not going jogging. I'll tell you later. But let's hear some examples first.
Examples
The 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.

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.
Rob
Err… go to the cafe? Go to a fancy-dress party?
Feifei
No!
Rob
Sorry, 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.
Rob
Oh, did you? Well, don't worry. I'll quickly go and get changed, and you can finish the programme, as we discussed.
Feifei
As we discussed?
Rob
Ah… shall I jog your memory now? The words… on the script?
Feifei
Oh, yes! Join us again soon for another Authentic Real English. Bye.
Rob
Bye.
