英语中有趣的双关语归纳

英语中有趣的双关语归纳【范文一】最近我在学习英语时,发现其中有一种形式的语言,叫做双关语。

双关语指的是一种以同音或近音词语,通过语言上或逻辑上的双重意义,产生幽默效果或增加语言语感的修辞技巧。

下面,让我们一起来了解一些有趣的双关语。

1. Why was the math book sad?It had too many problems.2. Why did the bicycle fall over?It was two tired.3. Why do you never see elephants hiding in trees?Because they’re so good at it.4. Why was 10 afraid of 7?Because 7, 8, 9.5. Why did the tomato turn red?Because it saw the salad dressing.这些双关语虽然简短,却很有趣,让人忍不住会心一笑。

通过这些例子,我们可以看出双关语的特点:首先,双关语的意思具有多义性,能够产生幽默效果;其次,双关语依靠语音和语境上的差异达到双关的效果,增加了音韵和音乐性,让语言更富有节奏感。

因为双关语的特殊性,很多时候我们需要根据语境去理解双关语的双重含义。

这就要求我们不仅要有丰富的词汇知识,还需要在真实的语言交际中,不断地训练语感,理解语言的逻辑和情境,体会到语言所蕴含的文化和历史信息。

【要点分析】写作重点:本篇作文首先介绍了双关语的概念和特征,然后列举了一些有趣的例子,最后对双关语的理解提出了自己的见解。

整篇文章主要针对双关语进行简单的介绍和解释,对读者的英语阅读有启发作用。

用词分析:本文的词汇较为简单,适合初学者阅读,例如:介绍→ introduce,语言→ language,修辞→ rhetoric,多义性→ ambiguity等。

【范文二】在英语世界中,双关语常被用于口语和文字的表达中。

英语笑话-妙趣横生的双关语

英语笑话
妙趣横生的双关语
英语中的双关语随处可见,尤其在广告语中的更常见,使广告更加俏皮、幽默、生动形象,从而增强广告的说服力,使产品形象深入人心。

如:
美国有一家眼镜公司的产品牌子是OIC,读作Oh, I see.
这则广告生动地运用了谐音双关,这三个大写字母形状像眼镜,同时,这个广告语又表达了视力不佳的人戴上这个品牌的眼镜后看见清晰的世界的喜悦之情,真是一则富有感染力的广告。

再比如一则海滨浴场的广告语:
More sun and air for your son and your heir .
我们这里有充足的阳光,清新的空气,这对您的儿子——您事业和财产的继承人——大有裨益。

这则广告巧妙地利用sun,son和air,heir这两组同音异义词,使广告读起来朗朗上口,从而吸引。

有趣的英语谐音

有趣的英语谐音

有趣的英语谐音英语是一门丰富多彩的语言,其中谐音是一种非常有趣的现象。

谐音指的是不同词汇或短语在发音上非常相似,但其意义各不相同。

通过发音的巧妙变化,谐音给我们带来了很多有趣的笑料和双关语。

在本文中,我将为大家介绍一些有趣的英语谐音,让我们一起来欣赏这种语言魅力!1. "ice cream" (冰淇淋)vs "I scream" (我尖叫)这是英语中非常经典的一对谐音。

"ice cream" 是一种甜品,而 "I scream" 是一个短语,意思是 "我尖叫"。

当你把“ice cream”快速地读成“I scream” 时,会让人产生一种有趣的错觉。

2. "blessings" (祝福)vs "blessings" (流鼻涕)这是一对字形相同而读音不同的谐音。

当我们说 "blessings" 时,意思是“祝福”。

但是当我们把“blessings”的发音稍微改变,就变成了"blessings",这个词在口语中可以解释为“流鼻涕”。

这种笑话在英语幽默中相当常见,可见英语谐音的趣味性。

3. "beer" (啤酒)vs "bear" (熊)这对谐音是由于两个词在发音上的相似而产生的笑话。

当我们说"beer" 时,我们指的是一种含有酒精的饮料。

而当我们把 "beer" 的 "ee" 发音稍微改变成 "ear",就变成了 "bear",意指 "熊"。

这是一对让人忍俊不禁的谐音。

4. "night" (夜晚)vs "knight" (骑士)这对谐音是字形相似而发音不同的例子。

英语笔记-双关语

英语笔记-双关语

英语笔记-双关语2014-2-24 9:00 类别:英语口语来源:enguo 责编:meten我们看一些比较生活化,都是我在日常生活中听到过的双关语。

1.You can only drink in your private place.你只能在自己的地方喝酒。

Private place这个字有两个意思,一个是指私人拥有的地方,如自己的房子或是自己的小房间,另一个意思则是相当于中文的「私处」.记得有一次和老美在我们宿舍楼下的交谊厅开party,像这种时候大家不免要喝点小酒。

但是我们学校有明文规定,不能在公共的场合喝酒,所以party才刚开没多久,舍监就跑来对我们说,"You can only drink in your private place."他的意思当然是要我们把酒拿回自己的房间喝啦。

没想到这时候有一个老美耍宝,把整瓶啤酒往自己的裤子一放,说,"Ok,now I'm drinking in my private place."(好,我现在就在我的「私处」喝酒。

)直把大家笑到四肢无力。

2.You cold shoulder.你对人都不理不睬。

在英文中,give someone a cold shoulder这句话指的是对某人不理不睬的意思。

例如,"My girlfriend gave me a cold shoulder after a huge fight."(我的女朋友在跟我大吵一架之后就不理我了。

)而在我之前所提的那部007之中,有这样一段剧情,就是当石油大王的女儿(苏菲·玛索饰)和007在床第之间温存时,她一边冰块摩擦他的肩膀,一边说,"You cold shoulder."其实这句话表面上是说,「你的肩膀好冷」但事实上她想说的是,「你都不理人家」.如果有去租录影带回来看的人,不妨注意一下这句话它是怎么翻的。

一语双关妙趣横生的英文

一语双关妙趣横生的英文

英语中有个谜语:Will liars be honest after they die? (骗子死后会诚实吗?)答案是:Lie still. (依旧撒谎。

)想想看,骗子死后也要“躺(lie)”在棺材里,lie作动词既可以表示“躺”,也可以表示“撒谎”。

答案很巧妙,可谓一语双关。

再来一个:Why shouldn’t you believe a man in bed?答案:Because he is always lying.这个就不解释了,你懂的。

双关语(pun)就是巧妙利用词的谐音、词的多义或歧义等,使同一句话可同时表达不同的意义,以造成语言生动活泼、幽默诙谐等效果,使人读来忍俊不禁。

下面来学习几个有趣的双关语。

1.-When a man feels girlish?-When he makes his maiden speech.[点津]maiden speech表示“处女讲”,也就是“第一次发表的演讲”;而maiden又有“少女,处女”的意思。

girlish意为“女孩子气的”,所以,“一个男人什么时候感觉女里女气”呢?当然是“maiden speech”的时候。

[链接]maiden work不是“少女的工作”,而是“处女作”;maiden voyage不是“少女航行”,而是“处女航”。

2.-When did the blind man suddenly see?-When he took up a hammer and saw.[点津]saw是动词see(看见)的过去式,同时saw也是名词,意为“锯子”,亦可用作动词“锯”。

答语中a hammer and saw是当成一组工具看的,意思是“一把锤子和一把锯子”,但是也可以把saw 看成是和took并列的谓语动词,这样就可以解释为“他拿起一把锤子,这时眼睛突然看见了”,这时and作连词,有just then或at that time的意思。

3.-How would a greedy man punctuate "I saw a one-hundred-dollar bill on the sidewalk”?- He would just make a dash after it.[点津]punctuate意为“在...加标点”。
