 影片《布鲁克林》中。出现不少聚会的场景,但是你知道吗,西方可是有很多不同类型的聚会哦。而且不同类型的聚会所邀请的人也是不一样的。小伙伴们一定要搞清楚聚会类型,以免闹出乌龙。


  《布鲁克林》片段中的聚会应该就是一般的朋友聚会,所以无需多言。但还有其他一些特殊聚会哦,一起来看看吧!
  第一个是:stag party。这个短语中stag 这个词,它的意思是成年的公鹿。由此可以推测stag party就是由清一色男士们参加的聚会,女性一律谢绝。Stag party的内容可以是打扑克,一起看拳击赛或者足球赛。有时候stag party在新郎举行婚礼的前夜举行,纪念他告别单身生活。
  例句1:I don't feel so good this morning. I gave my brother a stag party last night because he's getting married 1 today and we stayed out too late and had too much to drink.
  他说,我今天早上不太舒服。我昨晚给弟弟举办了个男子汉聚会,因为他今天要结婚了。我们太晚回家,酒也喝得太多了。
  stag party排斥女性,不免引起女性的不快,而妇女们也有针锋相对的一手。这就是我们要学的下一个习惯用语:Hen party。Hen意思是母鸡。hen party全是女性参加。
  例句2:I'llbe home tonight to take care of the kids because Susan has ahen party with the women she went to college with. Friday it's my turnI'm- going to a sptargty to playpoker.
  他说:我今晚得在家照顾孩子,因为Susan 要去参加以前大学女同学的妇女聚会。然而星期五将轮到我出去,我要去参加男子聚会打扑克。
  接下来我们要介绍一种不分男女老幼都可以分享的聚会,它是tailgate party。Tailgate,这原是一种箱形轿车尾部的车门。它可以翻下来暂时充当桌子。你在球场外或者其它运动比赛场外的停车场上时常会看到球迷们在 开场前几小时就捷足先登把三明治、热狗或者烧烤肉类等放在这张车尾的临时桌子上举行野餐,在一饱眼福之前,先大饱口福。这就是tailgate party,车尾野餐会。
  例句3:We had a great tailgater party before the Washington 2 Redskins played the New York Giants 3. But that was the only good part of the day: the Giants beat our Redskins by 21 points.
  他说: 我们在看华盛顿红人队和纽约巨人队的球赛前有很精彩的车尾野餐会,但这是那一天唯一值得我们高兴的事儿,因为在那场比赛中我们的红人队输给了巨人队二十一分。
  我们还要学另一个饶有情趣的聚会,它是baby shower. Baby shower 当然不是给婴儿洗澡的意思,shower 这个词可以指大批礼物,或许是因为礼物多得像大雨中的雨点,也可能是由于礼物倾注了亲友的深情厚意。 当一个妇女怀宝宝以后,她的亲朋好友会约定日子聚在一起,送她好多衣服、玩具等小宝宝一出世就合用的各种东西。
  这么多种类的聚会,小伙伴们参加之前一定要搞清楚聚会类型,不然可是会闹出乌龙的哦。
