地道的英語口語對話
Jo: I'm Jo and this is Real English from BBC Learning English.
Oliver: 大家好,我是Oliver,地道英語和大家一起學(xué)習(xí)現(xiàn)代英式英語中經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)的流行詞匯和實用表達(dá)。這些詞兒和短語都是現(xiàn)在英國人當(dāng)中非常流行的。So what's today's word Jo?
Jo: Well today's word is posh. P.O.S.H. posh.
Jo: Oh very good Oliver. Yes David Beckham's wife Victoria also has the nickname Posh.
Oliver: 這個詞兒是用來說優(yōu)雅的人的嗎?比如有些上流社會的人,十分富有、衣著華麗、彬彬有禮、周旋在各種時尚社交場合什么的。
Jo: That's right Oliver. So people who are rich, with nice clothes, who speak nicely and have good manners and might be called posh. We might also call someone posh as a joke.
Oliver: 你是指,說什么人 posh也可能是開玩笑的。比如說,你的一個朋友,開始喝很貴的葡萄酒,那你就可以拿他開玩笑說:
Jo: You're getting a bit posh aren't you?
Oliver: 在這個時候,posh就不是真的`優(yōu)雅的意思了,而是假高貴的意思了。一般來說,人們更喜歡用在評論什么人的時候,而很少當(dāng)面說別人,除非像剛才我們聽到的那樣是開玩笑。
