Jo: This is Real English from BBC Learning English. I’m Jo.
Jean: And I’m Jean.
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》节目当中，我们会带领大家一起来学习和熟悉一些近代英式英语里新出现的词汇和新说法。
Jo: It’s very important to stay up-to-date with English because new words and expressions enter the language all the time.
Jean: 那好，Jo，今天我们要学的新词是什么呢？
Jo: Today’s expression is ‘wiki’ – W.I.K.I. – wiki.
Jean: Wiki. Wiki又是什么东西？
Jo: Well, a wiki is a website that anyone can edit or modify. They usually contain information, and you or anyone else can add or change the information.
Jean: 这倒真是个新字眼。原来wiki就是大家可以上去任意添加和编辑的一种信息网站。
Jo: That’s right. You could say ‘Wikis are a good example of freedom on the internet – anyone can contribute.’
Jean: That’s right.

Jo: Yes. And he loves adding things to wikis.
Jean: Like what?
Jo:: Many things, but mostly wikis about football!
Jean: I see.
Jo: Yes, he’s addicted 1 to football and wikis!
Jean: 今天我们学到的这个新词Wiki对喜欢网站的朋友们尤其有用，Wiki，就是一种大家可以任意添加和编辑信息的网站。And that’s all we have time for today.
Jo:: Yes, that’s all. You’ve been listening to Real English from BBC Learning English. Join us again soon for more up-to-the-minute Real English. Bye.
