关于slang注意事项的例子
关于slang注意事项的例子英语俚语（slang）是一种非正式的语言，通常用在非正式的场合，所以在用这些俚语是一定要考虑到所用的场合和对象，最好不要随意用这些俚语。
俚语因为是不正式语言，所以翻译成中文时不能够直接按字面意思翻译，不然句子翻译出来意思会很好笑。
1. White man白人；带有好人的意思。
是因为“白人主义”作祟的原因。
在很久以前，黑、白人之间的误解很多，白人们以为只有白人才会做好事，而黑人是没有道德观念的。
以往在黑白隔离的年代，当一位白人见到一位黑人做了一件好事，或是做一件在白人社会之间认为黑人做不到的事情，比如说是帮助一位行动不方便的老人家过马路，那白人会对那黑人说：“You are a white man ！”，以表示那黑人做了一件白人做的事情，予以嘉许、并作鼓励。
所以后来这句话便慢慢变成了有“You are a good man ！”的意思。
这句话种族歧视气氛非常浓厚，现今社会一般不会用。
但是，有时在讲笑的情况之下，偶尔也会见到听到，最近小编在一套好莱坞电影里也有看过，不过当时是一位白人对另外一位白人说的，而且他们是在互相嘲弄。
2. Black tea“Black”的英文单词翻译成中文是“黑色”的意思，令人万万没有想到的是，大家所熟知的“红茶”的英文翻译却是“Black tea”。
这个时候就要发问了！是我英文学得不好吗？还是说外国人对茶不了解？事实上是这样的，当时红茶、绿茶是比较早出口到欧洲的，当时的红茶品种外形颜色偏黑。
外国人自然而然就因外形特点而称呼它为“Black tea”了。
简言之：因为中国人对红茶的命名是来源于其茶叶泡开后茶水的红色，而欧洲人则是看到茶叶本身的黑色，所以命名为“black tea”。
还好我们中国地大物博，红茶就叫“Black tea”了。
那黑茶怎么称呼呢？“Dark tea”就是黑茶。
3. Green handgreen hand表示生手，缺乏经验；刚刚从事某一行的人的意思。

SBS 1 俚语slang
SBS资料By Luna
Slang英语俚语是一种非正式的语言，通常用在非正式的场合，所以在用这些俚语是一定要考虑到所用的场合和对象。
rain cats and dogs 天上下猫，天上下狗（倾盆大雨）
它的起源可能同１７世纪使用的排水系统非常简陋，排水能力极其有限。
一旦下起暴雨，地下排水沟里的污水便四处横流，有时甚至还有死猫死狗之类的小动物死尸随污水蔓延出来。
如此狗和猫便与瓢泼大雨扯上了关系。
另外认为它来自北欧神话传说，在北欧，人们都认为猫影响天气的变化，而狗则代表风，所以一旦下起暴雨，猫和狗自然脱不了干系。
a couch potato 躺椅上的马铃薯（懒鬼）
a piece of cake 一块蛋糕（小菜一碟，易事一件）
all ears 全是耳朵（洗耳恭听）
all thumbs 满手都是大拇指（笨手笨脚）
ants in one's pants 裤裆里有蚂蚁（坐立不安）
big headed 大脑袋（傲慢，自大）
kill two birds with one stone一箭双雕，一举两得
put up the white flag 竖白旗（投降，放弃）
two left feet 有两左脚（笨手笨脚）
when pigs fly 猪飞的时候（绝不可能）。
