Real English:Pants,第2張

The script of this programme 本節目台詞

Neil: Hello, this is Real English from BBC Learning English, I'm Neil Helen: And I'm Helen. Hello!

Neil: In Real English, we look at words and phrases that you might not find in your dictionary.

Helen: 和漢語一樣,英語語言裡是充滿了成語和口語詞的,所以學習和了解這些短語和口語詞是非常有用的。尤其這些說法和語言都是英國人日常說到用到的。那Neil,我們今天要來學習的新詞是什麽呢?

Neil: Today's expression is pants. P-A-N-T-S.

Helen: What? Pants, 不是短褲的意思嗎?

Neil: Well, yes pants is another word for underwear in British English but this is also a word that people use nowadays to mean rubbish.

Helen: Rubbish 就是沒用、差勁兒的意思,那pants也是這個意思嗎? Neil,你能給我們擧個例子說說嗎?

Neil: Well anything that you think is rubbish you can say 'pants'. I didn't like the film, I thought it was pants.

Helen: 原來如果我們要說某件東西很沒用,很沒意思的話,我們就可以用Pants這個詞。

Insert

A: Oh no, I've forgotten my train pass – pants!

B: Oh no, I guess you'll have to buy a ticket today then.

A: Have you seen the news? The Madonna concerts have been cancelled!

B: Pants, I was really looking forward to that!

Helen: 這麽聽來,Pants這個詞的用法又不同了。就是如果某件不好的事情發生了,你可以用Pants來表達你胸中的不快或憤懣。就像喒們中國話說得“氣死我了”“太倒黴了”一樣。

Neil: I tell you what is pants Helen…

Helen: What's that then Neil?

Neil: Well we've reached the end of the programme…

Helen: That is pants…好了讓我們來廻顧一下,今天我們學到的英國通俗口語詞是pants,可以是很沒用、很差勁的意思,也可以儅作一個感歎號一樣來宣泄一下不快的情緒“真氣人”“太倒黴了”都可以用pants來替代。

Neil: And that's all we have time for today. You've been listening to Real English from BBC Learning English. We'll see you next time.

Helen: Bye for now.
