美式英语俚语(共5篇)

美式英语俚语(共5篇)第一篇:美式英语俚语1.I couldn't care less.这句话的意思是「我不在乎」,「缺乏兴趣」(lack of interest),也就是:I don't care at all.或 I don't give a hoot.例如:人家如果问: What do you think of the budget-cut?(你对预算削减有何看法?)你回答: I couldn't care less.(我毫不在乎)至于 I couldn't care more.就是「我很在乎」(I care a lot.)或 I care deeply.同理:I couldn't agree more.=I totally agree.(我完全同意)2.No bones about it.意思是:真实的,诚恳的(truly, sincerely or exactly),也就是 to make no bones about it.(bone 要加 s, it 是指 something)例如:His wife is beautiful;no bones about it.(他的太太真是很漂亮)3.take it on me!意思是:「这是我的,请用吧!」「这是免费的」(help yourself to it;it is free),这多半是指吃的东西或一些不贵重的东西。

例如:Here are some candies from England;take one on me.(这是来自英国的糖果,尝一个吧!)(one = candy)可见 take 后面的 it,是指 something,而 on 的后面通常不指别人,所以多半也只用在第一人称单数 me。

(假如夫妇在一起,也可以说:Take it on us.)4.I am from Missouri.这句话有时后面要加一句:「I need to be shown.」或「You have got to show me.」,意思是 Missouri 州的人很固执(stubborn),不太信任别人,一定要人家「证明一下」(prove it to me),所以密苏里州也被称为「The Show Me State」。

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。

】2. 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!3. 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."。

4. 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。

5. 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!】6. suck 差劲; 糟透了A: Guess what? We've just now missed the bus, and the next one won'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。

7. 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 have to catch some Zs." 也可以说"I have to take a nap." 或"I need to snooze."。

8. take a dump 上大号A: Would you mind closing the door? I'm trying to take a dump here.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 need to go."。

9. crank up 把声量调大A: Hey! The volume is too low. Why don't you crank it up some?A: 嘿! 这声量太小了。

你把它调大一点好吗?B: No problem.B: 没问题。

这里的「声量调大」也可以说"turn it up"。

意思是一样的。

cranky 则是形容人暴躁、易生气。

如: "Why are you so cranky today? Something happened?" 你今天怎么这么容易生气? 发生什么事了吗?10. Shoot! 说吧!; 有屁快放!A: I've got a question for you.A: 我想请问你一个问题。
