篇1:美国常用俚语
1. kick ass 了不起
A: Wow, you fixed my computer in less than 10 minutes. You're good.
A: 哇! 你不到十分钟就把我的计算机修好了呀! 你很棒!
B: Yep. I just kick ass.
B: 是的! 我就是厉害!
“kick ass” 除了字面上的「踢屁股」外, 还有「厉害、打败」的意思。当「踢屁股」时, 比如某人放你鸽子, 你很气, 就可以说: “I'm going to kick his ass.” (我得踢他的屁股)。当「厉害」用时, 就像上面例句一样用。“kick ass” 还可作「打败某人的意思」。比如某人一向在某方面比你强, 终于有一天你比他厉害了, 你就可以说:“Hahaha...I kicked your ass.”。觉得 “ass” 太难听的人, 就用 “butt” 吧!
【不管ass,还是butt,都是屁股的意思。只写这些东东,真是不过butt比较正式一些。黛西怎么老是庸俗不堪,社会主义精神文明的垃圾,我们新中国的有志青年可要擦亮眼睛,辩明是非啊!呵呵呵呵... 海泓注】
2. kiss ass 拍马屁
A: Mary, I'm sorry for cheating on you before. Do you see any chance that we can get back together?
A: Mary, 我真的很抱歉对你不忠实。你想我们可不可能重修旧好呢?
B: I don't know, but you can kiss my ass.
B: 不知道, 不过你可以亲我的屁屁(巴结我)。
「亲屁屁」好象不大卫生吧! 不过人家就是这样用, 就照着「亲」吧!
“cheat” 除了作弊外, 还有「不忠实」的意思。
3. XYZ 检查你的拉链
Hey, man. XYZ.
老兄啊! 检查一下你的拉炼吧。
“XYZ” 是 “Check your zipper.” 的意思。在美国, 填表选项时多用打「X」来表示(台湾则用打勾表示)。这个选项的动作就叫“Check”, 也就是这里的XYZ 的 X所代表的。Y 是 Your, Z 就是 Zipper 啰!
4. Hit the road. 上路了
A: Do you want to come in for some tea?
A: 你要不要进来喝个茶呢?
B: No. I'm running late. I really need to hit the road.
B: 不了。我快迟到了, 得上路了。
“running late” 是快迟到了的意思。
“Hit the road” 的 “hit” 有「去」的意思。好比某人每周去健身房三次, 你就可以说 “He hits the gym three times a week.”。
“I really need to hit the road.” 还可以用说成“I really need to get going.”。
5. hang out 和朋友在一起
A: I don't know what is going on lately. Jack seems to curse a lot these days. A: 不知道最近Jack 怎么搞的。 他经常口出恶言。
B: Well, that's just what you get from hanging out with the wrong crowd. B: 嗯, 交错了朋友就是这样啊!
“hang out” 是和朋友一起做一些事。看电影、逛街、聊天都算。也不限指异性朋友。
6. click (两人)合得来
I really like talking to her. I think we two really click.
我很喜欢和她说话。我觉得我们两个蛮合得来的。
好玩的字吧! 不过 click 不一定只用在异性之间。朋友之间的频率相同也可以用。
【以前只知道click the mouse,真是鼠目寸光啊! 】
篇2:美国常用俚语
1. dirty work 卑鄙的工作; 讨厌的工作
A: All right. You go ahead and sign this paper and I'll do thedirty work。 A: 好吧! 你就把这个东西(纸)签了, 剩下来的“下流的工作”就交给我了。 B: (It) Sounds good to me。
B: 听起来不错!
“go ahead” 在美语中很常用, 除了“进行去做”的意思, 还有其它的用法, 以后再看。 “dirty work” 在此指的是一些没人要作的扮坏人的事。我有一个朋友遇人不淑, 室友出去旅行一去不回(并不是死掉),却不来电话, 也不付他该付的房租。三个月后这个朋友气炸了, 就向房东提出要另找室友的要求, 房东就请这位朋友填一张纸,然后把他室友的东西搬到别的地方去了。这个房东作的就是这里说的 “dirty work” 了。
2. push around 驱使(某人)
A. Gary, do you think you can rewrite this paper. I don't reallylike the topic。 A: Gary, 你想你是不是可以把这个报告重写一遍。我并不是很喜欢那个主题。
B: Hey, I'm only trying to help you out. You shouldn't be pushingme around like this。
B: 嘿! 我是在帮你忙耶! 你不应该这样指使我喔!
“把一个人推来推去”应该和“指使”很容易联想吧!
想到另外一个词, pushover, 指的是没有主意/没有主见/容易被别人说服的
3. boss around
颐指气使
A: Oh! No. I've got assigned to work with Marvin for our groupproject。 A: 噢! 不! 我被分配跟 Marvin 一起做团体作业。
B: Ooh! I heard that he love to boss people around。
B: 唉呀! 我听说他很爱指使人的。
“boss around” 和 “push around” 都是“指使人”的意思。说一个人爱命令人也可以说“He is verybossy.”
“kick ass” 除了字面上的“踢屁股”外, 还有“厉害、打败”的意思。当“踢屁股”时, 比如某人放你鸽子, 你很气,就可以说: “I'm going to kick his ass.” (我得踢他的屁股)。当“厉害”用时,就像上面例句一样用。“kick ass” 还可作“打败某人的意思”。比如某人一向在某方面比你强, 终于有一天你比他厉害了,你就可以说:“Hahaha...I kicked your ass.”。觉得 “ass” 太难听的人, 就用 “butt”吧!
4. kiss ass 拍马屁
A: Mary, I'm sorry for cheating on you before. Do you see anychance that we can get back together?
A: Mary, 我真的很抱歉对你不忠实。你想我们可不可能重修旧好呢?
B: I don't know, but you can kiss my ass。
B: 不知道, 不过你可以亲我的屁屁(巴结我)。
Kisssomebody's ass 是拍马屁的意思, 但是在这句话里的意思是“你就做梦去吧”, 也就是“你去死吧”. 马屁精显然就是asskisser
5. XYZ 检查你的拉链
Hey, man. XYZ。
老兄啊! 检查一下你的拉炼吧。
“XYZ” 是 “Check your zipper.” 的意思。在美国,填表选项时多用打“X”来表示(台湾则用打勾表示)。这个选项的动作就叫“Check”, 也就是这里的XYZ 的 X所代表的。Y 是Your, Z 就是 Zipper 啰!
6. Oh, boy! 乖乖! 唉呀!真是!
A: Guess what? We first got a flat tire, and now my cell phone isdead。 A: 你猜怎么了? 首先我门的车爆胎了, 现在我的行动电话又没电了。
B: Oh, boy!
B: 唉!
“flat tire” 是“爆胎”的意思”。
“Oh, boy!”是美国人用的一种感叹表示词句。不必问他们为什么不说 “Oh, girl” 还是别的,因为他们也不知道。
ohboy在老年人里面尤为常用. 年轻人可以说, oh, crap! 或是最常见的 oh, no!
篇3:美国常用俚语
7. Hit the road。上路了
A: Do you want to come in for some tea?
A: 你要不要进来喝个茶呢?
B: No. I'm running late. I really need to hit the road。
B: 不了。我快迟到了, 得上路了。
“running late” 是快迟到了的意思。

“I really need to hit the road.” 还可以用说成“I really need to getgoing.”。

我很喜欢和她说话。我觉得我们两个蛮合得来的。
好玩的字吧! 不过 click 不一定只用在异性之间。朋友之间的频率相同也可以用。 以前只知道click the mouse,真是鼠目寸光啊
当两个人不click的时候, 你通常可以说, I don't know...but the chemistry doesn'tseem right. chemistry 这里指的是两个人不来电, 指同性异性都可以。
9. suck 差劲 ; 糟透了
A: Guess what? We've just now missed the bus, and the next onewon't come for another 45 minutes。
A: 知道吗? 我们刚好错过公车了; 下一班(车)还要四十五分钟才会来。
B: That sucks。
B: 真逊!
“suck” 是“差劲”的意思。 “That movie sucks.” 是“那部电影真是糟透了”的意思。 倒霉东西当然就是sucker.。。你可以说 these files are a mess! it is gonna takeforever to sort out these suckers. sucker通常不指人。
10. catch some Zs
小睡一下
A: Excuse me. I have to catch some Zs。
A: 抱歉! 我想小睡一下。
B: I thought you just woke up. Sleepy head。
B: 我以为你才刚睡醒。爱睡虫。
漫画里的人睡觉, 不是都画“Z,Z,Z...”来表示吗? 这里的 “catch some Zs” 就是这样来的。“I haveto catch some Zs.” 也可以说“I have to take a nap.” 或 “I need tosnooze.”。

上大号
A: Would you mind closing the door? I'm trying to take a dumphere。 A: 你可不可以把门关起来呢? 我正在上大号。
B: Well, learn to lock the door next time。
B: 那么下次学会把门锁起来吧!
“dump” 是“丢掉”的意思, “丢”什么不必我解释了吧?
“我要上厕所”(大小号都一样) 可以说 “I need to use the restroom.” 或简单地说 “I needto go.”。
dump也有垃圾堆的意思。你可以说, I can't believe you actually live here! It is a dump!--你住的地方真烂. 但是, take a dump是一种比较粗俗的说法, 一般男性多用. 通常大家会说 #1 或者 #2,跟我们的说法一样。
想去上厕所, 你可以说,mother nature is calling。或者说的文雅一点--I am going to use the facility.facility 这里指的就是restroom. 在别人家里, 你通常会问, may I use the bathroom?bathroom这里就是厕所的意思
12 crank up

A: Hey! The volume is too low. Why don't you crank it upsome?
