The script of this programme 本節目台詞
Helen: This is Real English from BBC Learning English. I’m Helen.
Jean: And I’m Jean.
Helen: Today we’re going to look at words and phrases that have recently become part of the English language.
Jean: 在我們的Real English地道英語節目中,我們要來學學儅今英國最新出現的一些新詞滙和新說法。Now Helen,今天我們要學的新詞是什麽呢?
Helen: Today’s expression is ‘chipping’ – C.H.I.P.P.I.N.G. – chipping.
Jean: Chipping. 給我們講講它的意思好嗎?
Helen: Well, chipping is something you do to a game console, like a Playstation.
Jean: 我想你說的chipping 是和Playstation這樣的電子遊戯機有關系,對嗎?不過chipping到底是什麽意思呢?
Helen: Well, game consoles are usually protected. They only play games from certain regions. For example, a Chinese console only plays games from China, and the same with a UK one. Chipping means altering them to play games from all regions.
Jean: 這麽說,chipping就是給電子遊戯機解除它的地域限制,解碼的意思。
Helen: Yes. But chipping is now illegal in many countries, and you can get into big trouble if you do it.

Helen: Yes. I think it’s quite common, but the police are trying to catch people who are chipping their game consoles.
Jean: So chipping is illegal.
