We've learnt four ways of telling somebody to keep a secret which are " Not a word. " ; " I am not one to kiss and tell. " ; " Keep it to yourself. " and " Keep your mouth shut. " And today I would like to share a new expression with you which means " Only you and I know. " which is way to say some information is very private. What's it? Let's listen to a simple situational dialogue and find it.
A : Just between us . My marriage isn't going well .
B : Are you fighting a lot with your husband?

【答疑解惑】
It is " Just between us ." We also can say "It's between you and me. " "It's between us. " "It's stays between us." "It stays here. " just 可以放在 between 和stay的前面，以表示强调。Just between us字面上的意思是：就在你和我之间。在口语中说及秘密时，意思就是：这是你我之间的秘密（谈话），不要告诉别人。

【即学即用】
Let's put it into practice. Please translate the following sentences into English.
1 只有你和我知道这事。
2 好了，我有主意了，但是这是我们之间的秘密，行吗？
3 在这里说的话不要告诉别人。
Think them hard and the answers will be given later.
1 This is between you and me.
2 Alright , I got an idea. But it stays between us. Agreed ?
3 What's said here stays here.
The above sentences are from hit American films . Here are some tips we should pay attention to.
1 Alright 就是 all right .但是在电影中经常写为:Alright.在《老友记》里面 come on 就写为: c'mon.
2 Get an idea 意思是：想到一个注意。
3 Agreed 是个省略句。完整的句子是：Do you agree? 在影视脚本语言中，如果直接用实义动词来提问，相当于一般疑问句， 那么就用这个实义动词的过去式。We've learnt "Do you understand?" 在影视中就是：Understood?

【听透美语】
Please listen to me to read the dialogue to see the differences between my pronunciation and the pronunciation in the recording. 请听我的发音与录音的发音有什么区别。
A: Just between us. My marriage isn't going well.
B: Are you fighting a lot with your husband?
I will give explanations to you one by one.
1 just between us ['dʒʌsbtwi:nəs]
【点拨】just 以爆破辅音[t]结尾， between 又以爆破辅音 [d] 开头，因此前一个爆破辅音[t] 这时就要保持沉默了。Between 以辅音[n] 结尾, us 以元音 [ ə] 开头，可以进行连读。 The stress falls on the first syllable .
2 isn't going [[i'zn'gəuiŋ]
【点拨】isn't 以爆破辅音[t]结尾，而going 又以 爆破辅音[g] 开头，因此前面的[t]不发音。The stresses fall on the second and the third syllable.
3 with you [wiðju:]
【点拨】with 以辅音[ð]结尾，you的发音半元音[ju:], 可以进行连读。
4 fighting ['faɪdin]
【点拨】美语中[tɪŋ]发音为[din].
句子中的连读浊音等一要看规则，而要就住特例。

1 'Just between us .
2 My 'marriage i'sn't 'going 'well .
