   你可能要问,为什么说话时要含糊其词?我们学英语不是要准确表达出自己的想法吗?


  其实,模糊语是英语口语中的重要组成部分。你有没有遇到过这种情况:想不起事情发生的具体的时间,某人说过什么话或者这个人长什么样?
  这些情况下,模糊语就起重要作用了,甚至可以“挽救”你!你要让别人听起来你知道你谈论的事情,而当有人寻求建议时,你也可以不用伤害他们的情感。
  含糊其词?英语口语中模糊语的使用
  kind of or sort of:
  Your accent sounds kind of British.
  你的口音有些像英国人。
  I’m sort of unemployed 1 right now.
  我现在失业了。
  That guy was kind of rude.
  那个家伙有些粗鲁。
  如果有人问你,Hey , do you like Funk music?
  你可以回答: kind of.
  含糊其词?英语口语中模糊语的使用
  ish结尾的词
  描述人们的特征,颜色和时间时,使用ish后缀
  如果我想描述一个红头发的朋友,但不完全是红色的,我可以说 He has reddish hair.
  同理,高矮或者肥胖可以用tallish或者fattish。
  如果你想描述一个你记不起具体样子的人,可以说
  yeah, I remember that guy, he’s kind of shortish/tallish and has lightish/darkish hair.
  看到了吧,这种描述可以指任何一个人。
  About / Or So
  描述数字和时间用about,估计和大约用or so.
  比如: I will get there at about 2.30.
  大约2点半到。
  There will be about 100 people at the next happy hour.
  到时候可能会有100人左右。
  I have about 20 cousins.
  我有20来个表兄弟。
  He’s about 2 metres tall.
  他能有2米高。
  I’m going to Australia for 3 weeks or so.
  我这次会去澳大利亚3个星期左右。
  I’ve been in line for 2 hours or so.
  我排队排了2个小时左右。
  含糊其词?英语口语中模糊语的使用
  Blah Blah Blah
  我们说blah blah blah,是避免去说无聊的故事内容或模仿你觉得烦人的人。
  其他的表达
  It’s difficult to say, but I think I’ll get there at around 10 p.m.
  很难讲,但是我觉得应该会在晚上10点左右到达吧。
  I’m not too sure, but I guess he’s British by his accent.
  我不确定,但是通过口音我猜他是英国人。

adj.失业的,没有工作的;未动用的,闲置的
  • There are now over four million unemployed workers in this country.这个国家现有四百万失业人员。
  • The unemployed hunger for jobs.失业者渴望得到工作。
