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。

只不过butt比较正式一些。

黛西怎么老是写这些东东,真是庸俗不堪,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。
