1. What’s up? / Wassup? / ‘sup?

意思: Hello;How are you?

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(2)

无论大家的英语课本是怎么写的,问候一个朋友或者熟人都不要用“How do you do?”What’s up?或者更口语的‘sup?既可以表达问候,又不至于让你显得需要脱帽以示尊重。

Like最实用的功能就是做填充词(gap-filler)。当你想不起来写下来要说的话,但又不想显得磕巴不专业地“um”“uhhh”,就可以用like来过度。

4. I hear you / I hear ya

意思: I empathize with your point of view,我同情你

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(3)

简单的三个词,你就可以传达出自己在很认真地聆听并且在努力地换位思考。从下面这个例子中感受一下:

-I’m kinda sad to be back from vacation. I wish I was still on that sandy tropical beach.

-I hear ya. After I got back from Acapulco, the view from my apartment depressed me for weeks.

5. Oh my God!

OMG式的感叹并没有听起来那么虔诚。

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(4)

事实上,保守的宗教者可能会觉得它是索然无味的(更不用说它打破了第四条诫命!)。Oh my goodness和OMG可以替换使用。这个感叹词本身并不严重,更何况戏精使用地频繁呢。

6. Shut up!

意思:安静点;难以置信

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(5)

别担心,shut up并不总是无理的。表面看来,它意味着让人安静,但当它做感叹词使用时,shut up意味着难以置信。让我们一起来看看下面这个例子。

-Did you hear that Amy and Ben got back together?

-Shut up!

-No, really, I’m serious!

7. To buy something

意思: to believe something,相信

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(6)

例如:Her story is just too crazy. I don’t buy it! 她的故事太浮夸了,我不信。

8. Off the hook / Off the chain / Off the hinge

意思: very fun and exciting; out of control in a good way

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(7)

这组短语的意思是太有趣、太刺激、厉害到词穷。

例如:

-Last night’s party was off the chain!

-I know, right? Those mojitos Brandy was mixing were off the hook.

9. To give props to someone

意思: to give credit or recognition (short for "proper respect")

这个短语的意思是给人以应有的尊重,如:

I gotta give her props for that song. She’s an amazing singer.

10. Bent out of shape

意思: upset

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(8)

这个词很生动形象地表达了“沮丧到变形”,例如:

Don’t get bent out of shape just because I overcooked the rice!

11.Bananas / Bonkers / Nuts

意思: crazy; out of control; beyond belief

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(9)

在英语俚语中,往往少不了食物的参与。以上这些食物都可以用来表示情况的夸张和难以置信。例如:

-The line at the post office was so long and slow, I was going bonkers.

-Yeah, that place is nuts at lunch time.

12. Bummer / Bummed

意思: a misfortune / to be disappointed or depressed

这组bum兄弟所表达的意思是不幸或者失望。

例如:

-It’s a bummer that the concert was canceled.

-I know! I’m totally bummed about it.

13. To hang tight

意思: to wait patiently

挂稳喽,你还要等好久呐:Hang tight, I’ll be with you in a minute.

14.Plastered / sloshed / smashed / wasted

意思: drunk

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(10)

形容喝醉酒不要再用drunk啦,快来试试这些更为歪果仁所常用的醉酒吧:

-I got so plastered last night. I’m embarrassed to show my face now.

-Don’t worry, everyone was too wasted to notice when you ripped off your shirt and danced on the table.

15.Whatever

意思: I don’t care

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(11)

这个词和“随便”还是有点不同的,它更多的是表达有点小任性的“我才不在乎呢”。例如:

-If you don’t start taking this class seriously and completing the assignments, you’re going to fail!

-Whatever.

16.For real

意思: true; honest

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(12)

真的吗?是的,真的。for real可出用在疑问句和陈述句中:

-I started training with a synchronized swimming team.

-Are you for real?

-Yes, for real, it’s been my dream since childhood.

17. For sure

意思: definitely; certainly

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(13)

中文里的确定一定以及肯定就是这个词啦,for sure。

-Can you do me a favor and pick up dinner on the way home?

-For sure.

18. I get it / I got it

意思: I understand

I got/get it不只用于描述获得了某个有形的物品,更多的是思想层面的获得,即为懂得。例如:

-Our appointment is at 4pm.

-Got it. I’ll meet you there.

19. See you later

意思: goodbye

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(14)

See you later并不是字面上的那样“稍后见”,而是宽泛的告别,做“再见”之意。例如:

-Well, this is it. Tomorrow I board a rocket to Mars, never to return.

-Cool. See you later.

20.Dude

在十九世纪后期,dude是对穿着考究的东海岸的“城市男孩”的绰号,他们去西部的牧牛场度假。最接近本意的用法是作为动词的dude up,意为穿上时髦的衣服。但现在,dude被广泛用作man或gay的代名词。在美语中,dude的用法更像是表强调的感叹词。在这个层面,dude就有了新意。

趣味英语单词大全带翻译(记住这20个英语单词和短语)(15)

girlfriend: "Who’s that dude over there?"

boyfriend: "Dude, I can’t see where you’re pointing!"

girlfriend: "Look, the one by the bar who’s all duded up like he’s a movie star or something. Doesn’t he look familiar?"

boyfriend: "Dude, that’s Keanu Reeves!"

girlfriend: "Dude, you’re right!"

boyfriend: "Duuuuuuuude."

从这个对话可见,dude作为感叹词的引申义真是多。不仅可指广义的伙计,也可以表无奈“大哥/大姐,你逗我呢?”
