   会说英语了,难免时不时的来一句Oh my God,尤其是碰上什么让我们amazed的事情时。比如说,一年前我离开新西兰时家门口正在修路,一年后我回新西兰时,居然看到同样的人还在那里修路,我会情不自禁的自言自语:Oh my God!So slow!


  自言自语还好,如果是对老外说那就要小心了,不是因为老外不喜欢我们说他慢,而是一部分老外不喜欢我们把他们信仰的God和那些完全不相干的事情联系起来,而且对他直呼其名。
  在英语世界,很多老外是不相信的上帝的,而且,许多老外看不惯那些相信上帝的人。因此,一些不相信上帝的老外会把Oh my God挂在嘴边,从而对上帝和相信他的人一并讽刺。
  我也不相信上帝,但是我想我应该配合那些信上帝的人捍卫其权利,所谓信仰自由。这就得从少用、慎用Oh my God做起。
  不过少用、慎用的尺度很难把握,因为有时很难知悉周围老外谁信上帝,谁不信上帝,谁半信不信,所以,要避免冒犯别人,对Oh my God最好是能避免。顺便避用Oh my Jesus和Oh my Christ,因为都和上帝有关。
  不用担心戒了Oh my God后遇到令人称奇的情景时会因无语而憋得慌,值得庆幸的是,老外创造了Oh my Gosh和Oh my goodness作为替代,这样既能表达我们的意思,又避免了对上帝及其信仰者的冒犯。
