美国句最实用俚语解析

美国句最实用俚语解析 1. kick ass 了不起 A: Wow, you fixed my computer in less than 10 minutes. You'regood。 A: 哇!你不到十分钟就把我的计算机修好了呀!你很棒! B: Yep. I just kick ass。 B: 是的!我就是厉害! "kick ass" 除了字面上的“踢屁股”外,还有“厉害、打败”的意思。当“踢屁股”时,比如某人放你鸽子,你很气,就可以说:"I'm going to kick his ass." (我得踢他的屁股)。当“厉害”用时,就像上面例句一样用。"kick ass" 还可作“打败某人的意思”。比如某人一向在某方面比你强,终于有一天你比他厉害了,你就可以说:"Hahaha...I kicked your ass."。觉得"ass" 太难听的人,就用"butt"吧! 赵晴注:改作形容词就变成ass kicking. 你可以说,wow, this new trick is asskicking. 或者说,this is an ass kicking trick. Kick somebody's ass有给某人一个教训的意思。 2. kiss ass 拍马屁 A: Mary, I'm sorry for cheating on you before. Do you see anychance that we can get back together? A: Mary, 我真的很抱歉对你不忠实。你想我们可不可能重修旧好呢? B: I don't know, but you can kiss my ass。 B: 不知道,不过你可以亲我的屁屁(巴结我)。 赵晴注:Kiss somebody's ass 是拍马屁的意思,但是在这句话里的意思是"你就做梦去吧",也就是"你去死吧". 马屁精显然就是ass kisser 3. XYZ 检查你的拉链 Hey, man. XYZ。 老兄啊!检查一下你的拉炼吧。

美国常用口语

1. No problem! 在国内学到的是: -Could you help me with xxx? -No problem! 而在这边听到的往往是: -Thank you! -No problem. 有时甚至: -Oh sorry! -No problem! 2. Go by 在课堂自我介绍时,有时会说中文名,然后英文名。Instead of saying "My Chinese name is xxx, and my English name is xxx.", 你可以这样说: -My name is xxx(你的原名), and I go by xxx(你的英文名). 一些美国学生不乐意用自己的原名,而偏好昵称,也可以用go by来表达: -My name is Catherine, and I go by Cat. 3. Appreciate it! 每次从校车上下来时,大家都会礼貌地对司机表示感谢,有次看到四个小哥鱼贯而出,每个人表达感谢的语句都不同。除了常见的"Thank you very much!","Thanks a lot!"以外,我觉得最好听的就是“Appreciate it!" 4. Have a good one! 美国人很喜欢互相道好,无论认识不认识。每次和人再见的时候(可能是下班,结完账离开超市,下课等等),往往会对同事/收银员/老师/...说声"Have a good day/night"之类的。有时下午5,6点,天还没黑,我总会把”Have a good night!"说成"Have a good day!",后来发现,还有种更简易的表达,日夜均可使用,即"Have a good one!" 简单顺口,客套必备。 5. 宾语前置(知友@Scrummble指出应该是状语前置) 这是种B格很高的表达方式,在每张美元背面都有一句话 "In God We Trust" (如下图) 此外有次等红灯时,看见前面一辆车的车牌上的 Motto写的是"United We Stand",当时瞬间感受到这种句式的力量与B格,于是脑补出一句“ A Sandwich I Had" 。 ( @Scrummble 还说我的例子语法错误…我去角落捂脸了) 6. Without further ado 这句在YouTube视频里经常听到,那些YouTubers在视频开头往往先介绍这个视频是干什么的,再顺便扯几句近期生活,然后在切入正题之前,有时会用这么一句"Without further ado, let's get started."这句话的意思就类似于“废话少说,让我们开始吧。” 每次听到这句,我都会联想另一个四字常用词汇“原来如此”,真希望它在英文里

购物常用 英语口语

1.Charge or debit? (Credit or debit?) 使用信用卡或是电子钱包? Charge (Credit) 指的就是一般我们说的信用卡, 信用卡使用上很方便, 但若是没有收入又没有社会安全卡, 是很难申请到信用卡的. 而我们的提款卡(ATM 卡) 就是 debit, 它会从你的支票户头直接扣钱. 一般而言, 只要去有刷卡的地方都会被问这一句, 刚来美国的人常常对这句话感到莫名奇妙, 不知道这句话到底在问什么, 其实只要了解什么是 charge 什么是 debit, 这句话就不难了解, 视你是使用信用卡还是 ATM 卡而回答. 使用信用卡就说 charge, 使用 ATM 卡就答 debit. 2. Cash back? 是否要找回现金? 在美国跨行提款的手续费是 $1.5, 够吓人的吧? 可是偏偏美国那么大, 你要找到跟发卡银行同一家银行的提款机谈何容易? 那这是不是意谓著每次去提领现金都要负担高额的手续费? 其实只要你善用 cash back 这个功能, 那情况就完全不一样了, cash back 就是说假设你买 10 块的东西, 但刷卡时你可以刷 30 元, 剩下的 20元他会 拿现金 20 块找你, 如此出门就不必带著大笔的现金, 又不必负担高额的提款手续费. 唯一缺点是有金额限制, 有些店最多可 cash back $50, 有些店只能cash back $20. 一般的情形是只有 ATM 卡才能 cash back 的, 一般的信用卡是不行的, 但是有些特别的信用卡, 如 Discover, 也有提供 cash back 的功能. 他的优点在于不受发卡银行提款机的限制, 我在亚特兰大拿的 ATM 卡到波士顿一样可以 cash back, 而且完全不收手续费, 请大家多加利用. 3. How are you going to pay? 你要怎么付款? 不住在美国的人, 或是刚来美国的人听到这句话一定觉得丈二金刚摸不著头脑. 其实这句话跟 Charge or debit 这句话很像, 问的就是你要用什么方式付款如信用卡(credit card) 提款卡 (debit card) 或是现金 (cash) 来付帐. 这句话在"电子情书"这部电影中曾出现过, 在男主角去女主角的书店买东西时, 店员就问男主角这句, 汤姆汉克就答: cash. 就是付现的意思了. 4. Double coupon. 双重折价卷.
