Jo: Today we’re going to look at words and phrases that have recently become part of the English language.
Jean: 在我们的《地道英语》节目中，我们将学到一些现代英式英语的新词汇和新说法。
Jo: Today’s new word is ‘to chill 2 out’.
Jean: Chill out. I don’t think I’ve heard that one before. What does that mean?
Jo: Well, to chill out is a very common expression in English nowadays. It means relax, calm down or take it easy.
Jean: 噢，就是休闲放松、、悠闲逍遥的意思吧? Is that the only way we use it, Jo?
Jo: Well, there is another situation in which you might use it. If your friend was getting very stressed and anxious about something, you might tell them not to worry – just ‘chill out’.
Jean: 原来还有让人平静下来不要烦恼的意思。So, Jo, if my boss was getting stressed about me being late for work, I could tell him to ‘chill out’?
Jo: Well, I wouldn’t use it with my boss or teacher! But you could say it to a friend.
