It\'s cool:cool 是青少年(teen-agers) 常用的字,(有时也用 debonaire) 其真正意思是指可以接受的好事;或是情况可以控制;或是保持冷静、文雅、礼貌、外表不错,能够合乎年轻人的标准。(可指人或事物)也就是 something good or acceptable;situation is under control;being calm, gentle, courteous or good-looking;meet teen\'s standard. 所以可以说: That\'s cool;he is cool;this is cool. She (He) was cool in the past. She looks as cool as a cucumber. 又是恭维语,是说她很 calm and charming; not emotional. 但为何用黄瓜 (cucumber) 代表,则不得而知。 2. Are you trippin\'?:trippin\' 这个字,是由动词 trip 演变而来。(动词时态是:tripped, tripping)年轻人用省略符号 (apostrophe ) 代替 g,表示是 slang,或口头禅。这个字是现在分词当形容词用,是指行为异乎寻常,也许受到吸毒或喝酒的影响,而显得神魂颠倒、奇形怪状(to get high on drug such as LSD),也就是说:要不是受到药、酒的影响,你为什 显得这样古怪呢?(Are you under any influence of drug or alcoholic? Why are you so crazy and bizarre?) 所以可以说: They are trippin\'. (= tripping) 3. He is a nerd:nerd 是指一些年轻人,每天只懂读书、考试,但对生活上的其他事情,都很生疏。 (A person always buries his nose in books, but not good at social situations.) He used to be a nerd in high school. (过去他在高中时是位书呆子) He is a computer geek. (意思是:虽然他是书呆子,但电脑很棒) I don\'t like him because he is a jerk. 也可以用复数: 主词也可以用其他人称,动词也可用其他时态: 4. Yo baby:Yo baby 是许多年轻的黑人男子对女子的招呼语,也有人用“Yo baby, yo baby yo”,由於女子很漂亮,很吸引人,他想与她交谈。(He thinks she is pretty and attractive, so he wants to speak to her.),也就是找话题,想要「打开话匣」。(to use as a form of opening line or pick-up line or to begin a greeting; try to know her or date her) 如果说: Yo baby, are you trippin\'? 意思是:漂亮的姑娘,你的样子有点怪里怪气,有什 心事吗? Hey, hey, hey, what\'s going on?“what is going on?”就是年轻黑人打招呼的用语 (a form of greeting or open statement) 或 5. She is a ho:ho 这个字,也是美国年轻人把 whore 字改变而成的一种口头禅或俚语。意思是指一些年轻女人,也许因为 peer pressure 或 curiosity 或 enjoyment 的心理,随便自愿与男子免费上床。(a girl or woman gives sex freely without charge),也就是说:She is very loose. 或 She is a loose woman (girl)。 They are (were) hos. 6. Catch you later!这是年轻人说「再会」的口语。(a form to say“good乡bye”) 也就是说:现在没有时间与你交谈,以後再谈吧!(I don\'t have time to talk with you now, but we can talk later.) 有时年轻小伙子也用:I am off. 意思就是:I am leaving now; I\'ll talk to you again. (我要走了,再谈吧!) |
