你是不是曾经有过这样的感觉:虽然学习了很多会话教材,但是一见到外国人就觉得很难张开口说,一到国外竟然听不懂他们在说些什么。所以自己也在自学贴近现代年轻人的日常生活英文,学习最常用,最自然,最生动和最地道的英文口语。
Bar & Party
*It's Miller time. 我们去喝酒吧!
Miller 是一种和Budweiser一样在全都极其畅销的啤酒,但是它在这里并不特指这种啤酒,而是泛指所有的啤酒。
A:It's Friday and we're finished with our classes.
B: Yeah! It's Miller time.
*Let's go bar-hopping. 我们一块儿去泡吧吧!
一晚上去几个酒吧,在酒吧里玩一会,再去那个酒吧坐一坐,这叫bar-hopping,即‘泡吧’。
A: Tonight, I think that we should venture out.
B: Great idea. Let's go bar-hopping.
*Do you have a favorite hang-out?这附近有没有什么店你常去?
favorite hang-out 就是指喜欢去、常去的店。不单指酒吧,也可以指饭馆、体育中心什么的.
A:I just moved here form out of state. Do you have a favorite hang-out?
B: Well,my friends and I always go bowling on Fridays if you would like to join us sometime.
类似句型 This is my favorite watering hole. (在常去的店中,特指酒吧时,说favorite watering hole.)
A: I remember when I was in college, this was my favorite watering hole.
B: I thought that you liked the other bar near my house.
*Let's go have a couple of brews.
brews 是beers的俚语说法。有时也说brewskis。
A:My mind is ready for a break.
B: In that case, let's go have a couple of brews.
