小唯唯

看美剧的话会发现很多生活用语~~

想问，如果去商店，人家问how's it going?  直接回答：Good 就好吧？  
然后比如他问有什么需要？ 想说随便看看，应该咋说呀？

Juillet要奋斗

教授。。。你把我的名字打错了，是Janet，不是Jannet。。。。。。

再补充一个

1、 what's up
在和老外打电话的时候，他们每次接起电话后第一句就是跟我说，hey, Janet, what's up? 而不是像课本里说的那样，who is it?我觉得可能是朋友之间没那么formal所以就直接what's up就可以了。。。
我去他们的房间给他们送东西，他们打开门后第一句也是what's up
2、 我问过老外关于how r u 这些问候的话语，他说其实他们不喜欢关系不错的朋友之间说什么how r u ,然后回答i'm fine， and u ?这样的，因为太normal了，他们觉得没必要。 他们直接hey就行了，顶多来个how's doing？
而且他们很喜欢用dude ,guy 这些，boy 和girl 反而用的不如这些多。
3    i don't give u a shit. 意思就是，算了吧。 就是当一个人跟你blabla说了一堆，你有点不耐烦，或者你觉得他说的事情不值得这么讨论，你可以挥挥手说句 i don't give u a shit.然后走人什么的。。。。但是这些话都是朋友之间说的。

还有一些，暂时失忆了。。。我再想想。。。。

哦对，接着继续补充。。

1、 is it ready? 和 ok, go for it. 还有，try it。
有次和老外吃火锅。。他问我，这些能吃了么，或者好了么，说的就是， is it ready? 我说yep, 他就跟我说，ok, go for it.然后我就去夹什么什么了。。。。
后来上来一盘南瓜饼，他没吃过，我就对他说，try it. it's very delicious. 他就说，ok, let me try.
嗯，我没有说具体的意思，只是把情景告诉大家。大家应该理解怎么用了，这样的情景用什么词了。

2、 hard
有次跟一个老外学弹吉他, 我们在谈论他手上的茧子。我问他怎么说，他说就是说手上这里的muscle is hard. 额。。。我不知道这是不是太简单了，反正当时我是又学到了一句。

还有什么。。。我再想想去

Juillet要奋斗

哦对，再补充下那个good for u

分辨这话说的是赞扬还是讽刺，就看语音。 一般语音上扬或者u 拖得有点长了，就是表扬你。 如果是对你无语了然后讽刺的话就是，oh, good for u。 然后语调是下降的，maybe 最后再加上一些手势，比如耸耸肩或者摊下手或者说完不理你走人了。。。。

还有提建议
比如一老外问我，How about going out to dinner? 或者，how about ....
然后我可以说sounds great.或者说sounds good. 而不是什么I'd like to.

我来提问吧，如果说我今天上火了，嘴巴上长了泡泡，求问英文怎么说？

-- by 会员 bearbabe (2012/1/17 16:37:30)

这话不太好翻译，因为老外没有上火的个概念。上火是中医里的呀。不过你可以说， ate something too acidic or spicy, now have some sores in my mouth. 应该是说口腔溃疡吧，所以 correct name is canker sore or aphta
PS: 中医里的上火就是西医里的发炎。。。。只不过中医里上火是讲究一个整体的。而西医里上火也就是发炎，是哪儿哪儿发炎了，讲究局部的。
哈，所以哪发炎了也要多喝水呀

最近看TBBT看到一个关于deal的
This is a deal breaker. 翻译为这是个原则问题。>.<为什么说是deal breaker呢 不懂不懂
其他关于deal的还有：
1. It's no big deal.   这个没什么大不了的~这不是什么大事~
2. what's Sheldon's deal?   Sheldon的性取向是什么？
3. Here's the deal.  事情是这样的~要么这样吧~你看这样行不行~
Here's the deal, I'll give you the half the money now and half the money when the DVDs are safely delivered. （买东西时）你看这样行不行，我先付你一半钱，另一半钱等到DVD安全送到我再给你。

关于上洗手间~~
我的女生朋友不会说去W.C.去toilet什么的，
她说的是 restroom

说点girl的topic(男生自动飘走><) 今天才知道女生每个月那个那个怎么说
catamenia emmenia menses menstrual flow都可以表示那个那个
正规点的表达方式是
I just had my period yesterday.
I am on my period.
Q一点的说法是
My aunt Flo is visiting.
这里的Flo是Florence的缩写,但其实Flo这里暗指flow的意思
