美语怎么说:026 来电用英语怎么说?
Jessica在北京学汉语,她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词,就会来请教她。今天是Lulu要问的:来电。
JESSICA: Lulu, I heard you went on a couple blind dates. How did they go?
Lulu: 没错! 我是去见了几个。给你看照片,在我手机里呢。
JESSICA: Wow, 这个真帅! 长得像王立宏! Did you guys hit it off? 你们谈得来么?
Lulu: 这个长得是不错,可是,我跟他就是不来电! We don't have electricity!
JESSICA: Haha, Lulu,You should use the word "chemistry". There's no chemistry between you two.
Lulu: Chemistry? 化学? 也对,不都说爱情是一种化学反应嘛! 说俩人“没感觉,不来电”,就是There's no chemistry!
JESSICA: That's right. Now let's look at the next guy. (wait for a while) Hmm, this one... How old is he? I bet he's over 40!
Lulu: 哈哈,这个是挺老的,可是我觉得我们俩挺来电的。We have chemistry!
JESSICA: Really? You saw sparks flying around?
Lulu: Spark? 我知道,s-p-a-r-k, spark,是火花,你说 “sparks flying around”,就是“火花乱飞,瞬间来电”,是不是?
JESSICA: Yes. For example, the first time my boyfriend and I kissed, I saw sparks!
Lulu: 这么说,There are definitely sparks between us!
JESSICA: That's great! So you are seeing this, er, mature guy, aren't you?
Lulu: Am I seeing him? 我看他?
JESSICA: Actually, to see someone means to date someone.
Lulu: 哦, to see someone就是和某人交往。我正在和他交往,就是I'm seeing him.
JESSICA: Correct. 不过,I think this guy is a bit too old for you.
Lulu: 我就喜欢成熟的! 年龄不是问题!
JESSICA: Well, if you say so. Now I see why people say "love is blind."
Lulu: Love is blind? 爱情是盲目的?
JESSICA: 对啊! Anyway, I wish you good luck! Let's see what you've learned today!
Lulu: 第一,来电可以用chemistry 或者sparks
第二,和某人交往是to see someone
第三, 爱情是盲目的,说Love is blind.
