 在美国学美语, 最有趣的大概就是可以听到很多俚语。 很多时候光听那些句子, 好象不容易马上可以会意出来他们在说什么, 听了几次后, 就慢慢可以了解这些俚语的含意了。这里整理出来的, 都是一些很常听到的「酷语」喔! 不过, 不管什么语言, 都应该考虑到说话的对象、场合与时间, 有些俚语并不适合在正式的场合用。


1. kick ass 1 了不起


A: Wow, you fixed 2 my computer in less than 10 minutes. You're good.

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 3" 吧!


【不管ass,还是butt,都是屁股的意思。只不过butt比较正式一些。黛西怎么老是写这些东东,真是庸俗不堪,社会主义精神文明的垃圾,我们新中国的有志青年可要擦亮眼睛,辩明是非啊!呵呵呵呵... 海泓注】


2. kiss ass 拍马屁


A: Mary, I'm sorry for cheating on you before. Do you see any chance 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)。


「亲屁屁」好象不大卫生吧! 不过人家就是这样用, 就照着「亲」吧!

"cheat" 除了作弊外, 还有「不忠实」的意思。

3. XYZ 检查你的拉链


Hey, man. XYZ.

老兄啊! 检查一下你的拉炼吧。


"XYZ" 是 "Check your zipper 4." 的意思。在美国, 填表选项时多用打「X」来表示(台湾则用打勾表示)。这个选项的动作就叫"Check", 也就是这里的XYZ 的 X所代表的。Y 是 Your, Z 就是 Zipper 啰!


4. Hit the road. 上路了


A: Do you want to come in for some tea?

A: 你要不要进来喝个茶呢?

B: No. I'm running late. I really need to hit the road.

B: 不了。我快迟到了, 得上路了。


"running late" 是快迟到了的意思。

"Hit the road" 的 "hit" 有「去」的意思。好比某人每周去健身房三次, 你就可以说 "He hits the gym three times a week."。

"I really need to hit the road." 还可以用说成"I really need to get going."。



n.驴;傻瓜,蠢笨的人
  • He is not an ass as they make him.他不象大家猜想的那样笨。
  • An ass endures his burden but not more than his burden.驴能负重但不能超过它能力所负担的。
adj.固定的,不变的,准备好的;(计算机)固定的
  • Have you two fixed on a date for the wedding yet?你们俩选定婚期了吗?
  • Once the aim is fixed,we should not change it arbitrarily.目标一旦确定,我们就不应该随意改变。
n.笑柄;烟蒂;枪托;臀部;v.用头撞或顶
  • The water butt catches the overflow from this pipe.大水桶盛接管子里流出的东西。
  • He was the butt of their jokes.他是他们的笑柄。
n.拉链;v.拉上拉链
  • The zipper is red.这条拉链是红色的。
  • The zipper is a wonderful invention.拉链是个了不起的发明。
