It’s said that couples can finish each other’s sentences after they’ve been in love for a long time, but maybe it was their similar way of speaking that brought them together from the start. New research shows that we are attracted to people who use language comparable to our own. Examining speech and style of writing, experts noticed that people are not only more attracted to, but are also more likely to stay in a relationship with someone who talks like them.
有人说相处久了的情侣一个说出上半句另一个就能接出下半句，但也许正是相像的说话方式是他们走到了一起。新的研究显示我们更容易被与自己有着相似的语言习惯的人吸引。在对口头和书面语做过研究后，研究人员注意到人们不仅更易被那些在说话上和自己相似的人吸引而且更愿意与这样的人谈恋爱。
Though previous research has shown that people are attracted to others with similar physical and personality traits, this study is the first to look specifically at language. In one part of the study, subjects were put in a speed date scenario. Disproportionately, speed daters who had similar speech patterns wanted to go out on another date. The study also looked at couples already in relationships. Partners who utilized similar vocabulary were significantly more likely to still be dating several months later.
那些与自己有着相似体型和个性的人更易吸引自己，尽管之前已经有了这方面的研究，但是对语言相似性的研究还是第一次。此次研究的一部分就是关于闪电约会的。与之不相称的是那些有着相似说话习惯的人们都会很期待下一次约会。研究也涉及到了已经确立恋爱关系的情侣。很明显，使用相同词汇的人们更乐意在接下来的几个月里继续保持恋爱关系。
Since communication is a pivotal part of any relationship, it makes sense that people want a companion who speaks in a similar manner. Forget French and Italian, the real romance language is whatever the object of your affections speaks.
在任何关系中语言都扮演着重要角色，这也解释了为什么人们都倾向于选择与自己有着相似语言个性的人做伴侣。不管是法语还是意大利语，真正浪漫的语言是从你的爱侣口中说出的话语。
